GOOD CATCHES FOR NETS.
shad and Herring Slowly Making
Their Way Up the River.

Reports received from the Potomac
river nets state that good catches of
both shad and herring are being made
now and the fish are slowly working
their way up the river. 1t is expected
that within the next week the haul
seine shores near this city will be max
ing catches of hundred thousand or
more herring at haul. as was often
done eight or ten years ago. When
the Whitewater shore was in it's prime
catches of million shad at a haul
were often made by the big net that
was fished there
Receipts of shad and herring from all
sources yesterday were $500 shad and
5000 herring, one vessel from the nets
about Point Lookout having brought
5000 herring. In spite of this good
supply OF shad, prices keep high. This
is due to the fact that Philadelphia and
New York are drawing on this market
for a supply of the fish, shad not hav-

OPPOSED TO A SIDING
IN SOUTHWEST SECTION
South Washington Citizens Associa-
ton Calls on Congress to Disap-
prove of the Project.

Considerable agitation was aroused
at the meeting of the South Wash
ineton Citizens Association last night
at the jefferson School. 9Th and c
streets southwest. when it was reported
that the District Commissioners had
recommended the construction of rail-
road siding on c street between Az
and 9Th streets southwest by the Phila
delphia, Baltimore and Washington
Railroad Company.
Several members voiced their disap-
nroyal of the construction of the sid
ing. and attention was called to the
fact that the Commissioners in recon-
mendins the erection of the siding did
so because they were not familiar with
certain facts pertaining to the case. IT
was pointed out that several years ago
residents and property owners in the
section secured an injunction in the
Supreme Court of the District of Column
bia which was later sustained by the
District Court of Appeals. preventing
the railroad company from construct
ing such a siding.

Frame of Picture Itself /.

They did not realize, however that
this commission of arts had in their
minds a beautiful construction rival
ing those of the Seine or the Thames or
the Rhine or the Volga or the Danube.
and that opposite this beautiful island
park which we are constructing, with
it's stadium. with it's place for memo
riaIs of distinguished Americans. was
to be this water front construction, a
complete setting to the picture-the
frame of the picture itself. SO. failing
to exercise their imagination, they au
thorized the structure to go up in that
place, and one of the things that the
art societies of the country fear is
that that building being put up there
will discourage and prevent the devel-
opment of the rest of the water front
upon the lines pointed out by the art
commission"
