STATE
CAPITAL

Decides Against New Bids.

Decides Against New sids.
Annapolis
Except for the work already under
way and that on contracts recently let'
there will be no more State road con-
struction in Maryland until after Jan
uary 1, with the possible exception OF
gravel roads in Southern Maryland.
This was announced as the definite
policy OF the commission, the reason
given being the excessive costs OF
cement and other materials. The aver
age cost Of roads last year was $4,000
a mile, while the average bid by con
tractors this year is s45. 900 a mile. an
increase OF so per cent. due almost
entirely to the cost Of material.
That this is the fact is shown by the
last contract given by the commission,
the Morgansa- Cotton road, in st.
Mary's county, which is to be Of sand,
clay and gravel. and for which the
low bid was s70.429, or s14,s53 per
mile.
This was lower unit price than
given on any road Of similar construc-
tion In the last two years, according
to Chief Engineer Mackall. The ma
terlal is of local production, the CHIEF
element OF cost being labor. In con
trast with this bid is that given some
time ago for the Morantown-Allegany
road, in Allegany county, OF nearly
s56,00O a mile.
In announcing the policy OF the
board, Governor Ritchie made the fol
lowing statement:
The State Roads Commission con
sidered a number of bids for concrete
road construction. Nearly all were for
more than $4,000 per mile and one
as high as $4,000. Such unpreeedent-
ed prices were not and could not have
been anticipated when our present
road financing was planned and the
prices are prohibitive.
They are chiefly due to the extreme
ly high cost Of cement. stone, gravel
and sand. The commission. therefore,
has rejected all these bids and will
readvertise about January l. 1921. by
which time it is hoped conditions will
have greatly improved.

Bio Gain In Motor Licenses.

The report of Automobile Commits
sioner Baughman for the fiscal year
ended May 20. 1920. shows a substan-
tial increase in receipts, as compared
with the previous fiscal year, and a
decrease in expenses. The gross re-
ceipts were s2,051, ,135.O7, which was
an increase Of $3.50, ,441.64, or 21.5 per
cent. The expenses were s16S,4177S,
as compared with s16S,626.99 in the
previous year, a saving of s5,209.21.
Mr.. Baughman also reported that
while the total number Of licenses OF
all kinds issued during the year was
31s.315, which was an increase of 37.6
per cent. over the previous year, the
number Of deaths resulting from auto
mobile accidents decreased. There
were Isl such deaths in the last fiscal
year, which was So less than in the
previous year.
Speaking of the increase in motor
traffic in the State. Mr.. Baughman
said in his letter to the Governor,
transmitting the report:
"The postwar conditions are well
known to you, and the increased prices
Of motor vehicles and the correspond
ing increase in the cost Of mainte-
nance. instead of reducing the num-
Der of machines in use, has had very
little influence on the percentage Of
increase. This is no doubt due to
the prosperity of the rural sections Of
the State and the high scale of wages
for the laboring man.
Part Of the increase is also at
tribuable to the growing use of the
motortruck as a means Of transpor-
tation. The railroad situation has
.necessitated the employment Of large
fleets of motortrucks by various cor
porations in order to move perishable
and essential products from one city
to another. In fact, the number Of
motortrucks which are now using our
highways, primarily designed for only
light passenger car traffic, is a seri-
Gus problem.
Many OF our main arteries are
greatly congested by the motortrucks
which necessarily, due to their con-
struction, must move at a lower rate
OF speed than other traffic. In fact,
on many of our main highways traffic
is becoming so congested that one is
forced to move at a lower rate Of
speed than is necessary to comply
with our State speed law"

CORK HUNGER STRIKER DIES.


Cork.-The first death among the
hunger strikers in Cork jail occurred
Sunday night. Fitzgerald died at 9,45
o'clock, having tasted 68 days.
The condition Of Fitzgerald and
Murphy had become so grave Sunday
that, with the consent of the other
hunger strikers, the prison doctors
were permitted to give Fitzgerald
medical treatment. A Cork specialist
also was called in.
Fitzgerald was arrested for shoot
ing Private Jones outside Fermoy
church on September 7, 1913.
One OF Group OF Eleven.
Fitzgerald was one Of the IL men
on a hunger strike in the Cork jail
whose cases for a long time have been
the source Of wonderment on the part
OF medical authorities. Nearly
month ago DR.. Pearson and DR.. BATHS
combe, the jail physicians, expressed
profound amazement that the men
who were abstaining from food were
still alive and conscious.

DYNAMITE WRECKS W. VA.
MINE; BATTLE FOLLOWS.

Morgantown. W. va.-The tip
pie and the entrance to the Rock
ford coal mine Of the Comedies
vile Basin Coal and Coke Com
pany at Rockford. W. Va. near
here, were badly damaged by an
explosion Of dynamite shortly be-
fore midnight. Twelve men at
work in the mine succeeded in
making their escape.
Soon after the explosion the
power house OF the coal company
was attacked. Many shots were
fired. The sound Of the shooting
and the explosion attracted nom
union miners employed by the
company. and they. quickly as
sembled at the power house.
In the fight which followed II is
believed that one Of the men Of
the attacking party was either
killed or badly wounded. as he
was carried away by some of his
companions when they were final
ly driven on.
II also was reported that an ex-
plosion occurred at the Richard
mine Of the Penn Mary Coal Com
pany, one mile away, but details
were not obtalnable here.
Four months ago strike Of
coal miners was called in this
field. Since that time nonunion
men have been employed in a
number of the mines, but there
have been no disturbances until
tonight Last winter Federal
agents were busy in this field
searching for radicals and some
men were arrested and deported.
