VIOLATING OYSTER LAWS
IN THE POTOMAC RIVER
Tongers and Dredgers Catching
Small Bivalves for
Packers.

Thought it is contrary to the oyster
protection laws of both Maryland and
Virginia to take oysters from the
Potomac river above a line drawn from
Upper Machadoc creek, Va- to Lower
Cedar point. Md, for any other pur-
pose than for planting, it is asserted
the law is being daily violated. Small
oysters are being caught IN quantities
by both tongers and dredgers and sold
to runboats that carry them to the
packing houses at Baltimore and else
where on Chesapeake bay Tuesday last
a large fleet of dredgeS was working
in the seed-taking portion of the river.
and lying in the mouth of Upp.r Mach
odoc creek and vicinity were eighteen
buy boats waiting cargoes. Those who
know the oyster business say these
eighteen boats were not after seed
oysters, and that oysters that should be
used in planting poor or worked out
bottoms are being used by the packers
The oyster-prOtection laws of Mary
land and Virginia have been effective
in increasing both the supply and quail
ity of the Potomac oysters, but it is
asserted that if the dredgers are not
stopped at once oysters will be as
scarce and poor in the Potomac as they
are now in unprotected waters. Under
the law any person convicted of TAX
ing oysters from the river above the
line from Upper Machodoc creek to
Lower Cedar point, for any purpose
other than planting, shall be fined not
less than 800 or more than $500. or
confined in Jail not less than thirty
DAYS or more than six months, either or
both"

TWO EARTHQUAKES RECORDED
Disturbances Estimated to Be 1900
to 2.7oO Miles Away.

Two heavy earthquakes were record
ed early today on the seismographs at
Georgetown University observatory.
They were very pronounced and were
centered approximately between $500
and 200 miles from Washington. ac-
cording to estimate of Rev. Francis
A. Torndorf, seismographical director.
The first tremors were recorded at
2:O4 am. They continued until 3
O clock. reaching their maximum at
about 2:33 o'clock. The second dis
turbance commenced at 3:43 am. and
continued until after O'Clock, its max
imum being reached at 4:31 am.
The greatest movement during both
disturbances was north and south. The
records were not easily read. and de-
termination of the location of the cen
ter of the disturbance was impossible.
1t is considered probable the quake
was one of those which have been
shaking Central America for some
weeks past.

H1NDERs CHEMISTRY CLASSES.
European War Makes It Difficult TO
Procure Materials.

Although teaching chemistry in
Washington colleges and schools has
been hampered by the difficulty in OBJ
tanning chemicals, because of the Euro
pean war, which has cut off commerce
with Germany, formerly the leading
chemical producing nation of the world,
American manufacturers are rapidly
coming to the front and supplying the
need. Prof. c. +. Monroe of George
Washington University explained today
that there is nothing in the way of
chemicals, glassware or porcelain used
in chemistry which cannot be made in
America, but that heretofore it did not
pay American manufa cturers to supply
the demand, because of the low prices
prevailing.
Many of the German industries had
been subsidized by the government
after 1870, thus fostering them The
scarcity caused by the war, both be-
cause of the cutting off of the German
supply and because of the need abroad
to keep various metals and chemistry
in the manufacture of various war ma :
terials. has caused a great rise in price
throughout this country, often as much
as several hundred per cent.
