PORT DEPOSIT FOLK
IN SUSPENSE WHILE
ICE GORGE HOLDS
Thousands Of Pounds of T N T
Failed to Open Up the Channel,
but Made Many Breaks.
FLOOD MAY BE AVERTED

Special Dispatch From Stan Correspondent,
PonT DEPosIT, MD, MARCH 10.
At 2 clock this afternoon the ice
gorge at Port Deposit was still intact,
but the town was In no immediate
danger. The bombing is to be re-
sumed this afternoon with even
greater force than yesterday.
RESUME BOMBING THIS AFTERNOON.
The aerial bombardmcpt will be re-
sumcd this afternoon by the army AVA
TOTS.
The ice in the lower part of the river is
considerably broken up, due to the con-
ginued bombing of YES, crday, but the
main barrier is still intact.
The army officers today expressed them
selves as satisfied with their work thus
far and they plan to use several planes
Today. hoping TO finish opening q channel
before thaw sends down more ice from
farther up river.
This afternoons attack on the ice will he
made by two large Martin planes. One
will carry four 25Q-pound bombs and
the other two 50O-pound bombs.
They will start at the b. y o. bridge and
work up the river travelling parallel, on
cnch side of the channel and bombarding
the ice simultaneously.
The request for the Baltimore ice boats
has been renewed, as it is believed they
can open the channel after the planes
finish breaking the ice this afternoon.
Port Deposit is still high and dry,
but would be flooded i a rain should come
before the ice went out 1t is hoped that
the channel can be opened before rain
comes. The weather is clear now.
There is no immediate danger either
L IL,
The population Of this place spent n
restless night last night under the un-
ccrtaintics of the ice which has goTged
itself into large field of terrific danger
out i'm front of the town. People vent TO
their beds late and some remained up
virtually all night to guard against any
sudden surprise.
During the dav yesterday the waters
which had submerged part of the rail-
roads BED had entirely receded back into
the river, leaving the town dry. The sky
was clear as crystal and apparently no
reasen TO fear another inindation of the
shore. But these natives know the situa-
tion perhaps better than anybody else.
as they have learned by experience that
has sometimes been very costly to them.
About two miles Of ice piled from twelve
TO fifteen feet in height and stretching
from jus. below Port Deposit down toward
the railroad bridges and the town of
Havre de Grace wait only for the ice below
10 begin to move. When that time comes
and not before Port Deposit will know
what fate this great gorge of ice has IN
store for it and its homes. Thus far there
have been no property damages, unless the
floods have weakened the railroad bed
somewhat.

Owing to the newsprint situation
Every Evening is doing everything
possible TO conserve white paper.
Advertisers can cooperate by or
dering copy early and by arranging
for space and giving as much lati-
tude as possible as to days of in
sertion. Every Evening cannot
guarantee Insertion of large display
copy unless same is in the business
office early the afternoon before
copy is to be printed.
The conservation of newsprint is
tremendous problem for daily
newspapers. Ii is not matter of
price but question of SUPPLY
AND DEMAND. In the solution
of this problem advertisers have
much at stake and they can be of
real assistance TO the newspapers
by cooperating as suggested above.

What happened to Pitcher Allen

That is the absorbing question in the
American League these days. Soth
oron was dependable mound per-
former last season. This year he
started and had only fair success,
then the rule against spitters was re-
opened to permit him to use the
moist delivery. The Brown manage
ment forgot to certify Sotnoron as

restored to the spitball list he has
failed dismally and the sharps of
the Johnson circuit declare he had

he will not be able to get away with

Browns, but he is rarely called upon.
