GaZUeston Is Building
More Miles Sea Wall

Galveston, Texas, April l.
Continuing the original plant OF
making the city more secure from
tropical hurricanes, Galveston has
begun nearly two miles more OF sea
wall around the southwest water
front The work which was started
a few days ago will cost approx
mately $2,000,O00 and will require
nearly two years to complete.
When the tropical storm of 1000
had abatcd and Galveston had buried
at sea thousands OF citizens drowned
or killed in the storm, leading men
of the city met and determined to
improve the work of Nature by rails
ing the site of Galveston and thus
shutting ont the waters OF the Gull
of Mexico.
The aid OF the federal government
was sought and the Texas legisla-
ture agreed to remit state and coun.
ty taxes pending the building of the
monster rock and concrete barrier
along the south front OF the seaport
This original wall is four miles il
length and is bordered by brick
driveway its entire length. Thou.
sands of tons of Texas granite ant
cement were used in its construc
tion and it was not completed unit
1906.
Before the wall had been com
pleted practically the entire city haC
been elevated seventeen and one
half feet, the height of the barrier
This was done by raising building,
End then pumping millions of tons o.
sand inland from the gulf. The slop,
of the city was made toward Calves

SPREAD SEDITION
AMONG NEGROES
SPIES IN MISSISSIPPI EN-
COURAGE BLACKS TO
EVADE DRAFT.

Jackson, Miss, April l.--Eyidcnce
that German money is
being used in Mississippi tor en-
courage negroes to evade the Sc
lective draft law is contained in the
report of Chairman Ethridge, head
OF the state exemption board, and
made public today by the state ad-
jutant generals office.
Mr.. Ethridge's report deals main
ly with the situation in Homes
county where difficulty was expert
enced in getting negro registrants
to report. Charges are made that
at one negro church, known as
The Church of God and Christ, -
pro-German sermons were preached.
That the sect, the headquarters of
which are said to be in Los Ange-
les, several months ago erected at
$4,000 church in the town Of Lex
ington and that the pastor hitherto
an obscure negro preacher, recently
built a $25,000 residence in Mem
phis. Lexington negroes, it was
stated, contributed only a small
part OF the money used in the build
ing of the Lexington church.
The report also tells OF meeting
held in this church by a foreigner
who, during his stay in Lexington
received a code message which has
not been deciphered.

WRITES TO METHODISTS
"Hun Power Is Thing Without

Opinion of President, He Tells
Churchmen.

New York, April /. - President
Wilson has not changed his attitude
concerning a negotiated peace with
the central powers as expressed in
his flag day address, his reply to
Pope Benedict and his message to
congress on the declaration OF war
with Austria, according to a letter
he has written to Bishop Theodore
5. Henderson of the Methodist Epis-
copal church, m1de public here to-
day by the National War Council of
the church.
Bishop Henderson wrote to the
president in behalf of 20,000,000
American Methodists, asking in par
ticuIar whether his present un-
wavering purpose was expressed in
the following words from his mes
sage:
The German power, a thing with
out conscience, honor of capacity
Tor coyenated peace. must be
crushed. Our present and
immediate task is to win the war.
and nothing shall turn us aside until
it is accomplished
The presidents letter, dated
March %, follows
In reply to your letter Of March
q, may | not say that you are per
fectly safe in using the words which
you quote from my messages as ex-
pressing my unaltered thought and
unbroken purpose? 1t is always our
duty to find out what the expression
OF a desire for peace from our oppo-
nents really means, but unless it
means Il complete and convincing
program OF justice upon which Il
lasting peace can really rest (and
we have had as yet no evidence that
1t means anything OF that kind, it
means nothing
The presidents letter will be read
from all Methodist pulpits in the
country April ! and the national
war council announces that all
Methodist ministers have been
urged to use it as "a basis of new
and hearty backing Of the president
in the war and for the choking out
OF all pacifists."

Previous to 1911 wooden tres
ties formed the only connections be-
tween the island and the mainland
"a distance of more than three
miles. In that year the cauSeway
built of steel and concrete, was
completed. 1t not only carries the
railroad tracks of the several lines
entering Galveston, but intcrurban
tracks and a public roadway as well,
1t was constructed jointly by Gal
weston County and the tranSporta-
tion lines using it. In the center is
a draw permitting the passage of all
vessels. The storm of 1915 severely
damaged the causeway and for sew
eral months it was impossible. Some
month, ago, however, repairs on it
were begun and it is expected that
they will be completed before sum-
mer.
For the extension of the seawall
the federal government has appro-
priatcd $ll9l,OOO and Galveston
County S565,OOO. 1t will be l0,3O0
feet in length from the point where
it attaches to the old original wall
between Sixth and Seventh streets
to where it ends in the heart Of the
ori-i0al Fort Jacinto reservation. 1t

sand acres of government property
and about half that amount in Gal

Included in the original shipment
OF material with which to start the
work were 5000 piles and 100000
feet of lumber along with several
trainloads OF rock and cement. Sev-
eral thousand men will be employed
in carrying out the undertaking.
