To Sell German Ships.

With the approval of President Will
son the United States shipping board
Is now preparing for the sale of the 30
y German liners secured by this country
4 during the war. Protest was at first
a lodged to this sale by the war depart
ment on the ground that the country
L would need these vessels as a reserve
transport service for the army. With
the overcoming of this objection the
terms of the sale will so read that the
vessels will be bound to the American
flag and will be subject, under whose
ever's hands they fall, to recall for
army transport service in any emery
ency that may arise. An offer of SIS
900 has already been made for this
fleet of 80 vessels in a block but they
will not be disposed of as a fleet to
any one concern. The international
Mercantile Marine company has made
a fiat offer of $4,000.000 for the Le-
viathan alone. Block offers will be ac-
cepted at an auction to be conducted
by the government this coming week
for any portions of this fleet now be-
ing operated under the management Of
any one concern, by such operating
concerns, but the fleet will not be dis
posed of as a whole in this manner.
The shipping board has on foot now
a proposal whereby such portions OF
the grand merchant fleet of the coun-
try now being operated by private
companies will be hereafter leased on
a profit sharing OASIS, until SuCI lllhe
as definite manner of disposal is au-
thorized by congress. Under the new
plan the private operators will re.
ceive a share of the net revenues of
the vessels, instead Of a fixed per-
centage on tariff returns or instead Of
operating under lease. This Will
place the responsibility for. common
surate tariff returns directly on the
operating companies and stimulate
them to secure as much business as
possible, thus affording greater revenue
of the government and to themselves.
In the testimony being heard before
the senate commerce committee on dis
posal of the fleet one of the former at
torneys for the shipping board declar-
ed last week that investment funds
of the American people will have to
be called upon to finance the disposal
of the merchant fleet. The board has
already organized bureau to look
after the sale of it's vessels and this
bureau will prepare itself to dispose of
our merchant shipping in any manner
congress sees fit to lay down as the
law. Meanwhile the board is going
ahead with sales and transactions
where it can be done with safety and
the sales are of such character as to
be palpably of benefit to the country.

1868 SEA VESSELS
American Merchant Marine
on High Seas Is at Last a
Reality-ShipS May Be Re-.
called to Service.

WASHINGTON, d. C.. Feb. ITO
date the United States has sold through
the shipping board 1863 vessels Of the
large fleet built and acquired during
the war. The government is now di-
recting the operation through various
shipping firms of the remainder of its
enormous war merchant marine of APP
proximately 1875 vessels, principally
steel cargo vessels, and there remain
several hundred vessels now under con-
tract or construction yet TO be delivered
20 the United States shipping board.
Pending definite action from congress
on the disposal of this enormous fleet,
Americas first merchant marine in a
century, the board is disposing of those
vessels available for sale and for which
reasonable price Is offered. The re-
mainder of the fleet is being let to
private operators on percentage basis
of the freight return.
From the 1853 vessels sold to date the
government will receive return of
SS2,424, 40S, many of them being old ves-
sells acquired during the war, and lake
steamers remodeled for coastwise and
ocean service in the emergency. OF the
total sales to date, beginning sometime
last summer, only So of the vessels
were the new steel cargo type of ship
constructed during the war by the
Emergency Fleet corporation These
So vessels alone brought $50,801, 1853 of
the total sale returns. There are more
than a thousand Of these vessels yet to
be disposed Of or operated by the ship
ping board.
The remainder of the fleet sold to
date consists of "old tonnage acquired
by seizure and purchase, wrecked YES
sells, ETC., sold as Is account of age
and condition" of which there were Al,
4 principally reconstructed vessels taken
\ off the lakes during the war, and
which brought a return of $4,000, 1856.
J Eighteen wooden vessels were sold for
sum total of $S,6S1 1852; II tugs bring
4 ing $1,Sl7, 0O0 and Al barges bringing
= 81 ,s2S,7 700. Sales to date have also in
Guided ten of the wooden vessels built
during the war, which brought totaI
return of $S,19S 900. The sales of the
steel vessels, 1t is pointed out by Of
4 ficials here, have thus far averaged ovel
s216 per lightweight ton out of the
1913 ton capacity of the SO vessels
sold, and it is predicted that the gov
eminent will experience little difficulty
in securing the return through sale bl

5EAVERS 90 MUCH MISCHIEF
Are Uneasy Over the Situation
They Have Created.

Because the limited intelligence
Of the beaver goes no further than its
own immediate purposes, owners of
property In the Adirondacks are wish
ing that the beaver was less indus
trious and seriously wondering what
Is to be done to stop the increasing
number of these willing workers from
decreasing the value and beauty of
| this famous region. The forest rangers
Of the conservation commission. says
writer in the Albany Journal, last
summer estimated the undesirable re-
suits that had followed the building OF
nearly GOO beaver dams, and found
that an area of about S,GS1 acres had
been flooded. and something like SOL
900 worth of good merchuntable stand
ing timber was being destroyed. Con-
sidering that the number Of beavers,
now estimated at about $4,000 is be-
lieved to be increasing about 5000 a
year. the damage bids fair to become
a serious problem. Not only do they de-
strOy valuable timber. hut they are
steadily changing the character of the
Adirondack scenery along the water
courses and altering the shore line of
the lakes; yet the region without any
beavers at all would not be the Adj
rOndacks as nature made it and as
those who now go there to enjoy its
beauty like TO find it. Time was when
the beavers seemed likely to vanish.
and the state took them under its pro-
lection; now the danger seems to be
that they are so well protected that
they will eventually "come back" in
numbers out of proportion to the
normal population of beavers when
the Adlrondacks were subject to the
conditions of life In wild country.

LONG PUZZLE TO SCIENTISTS
Strange Work Left by Mound Builders
Never Has Had Anything Like
Satisfactory Explanation.

The Serpent Efiigy mound, near
Chillicothe, Ohio, the strangest earth
work left by the Mound Builders. Is
one of the most striking and puzzling
creations that Is, TO be found in the
SciOtO River valley. Over all. the
mound is more than 1900 feet long,
and depicts a serpent of several con-
volutions, jaws extended. and an oval
within the grasp of the huge jaws. The
groundwork is from two to four feet
In height, and from three or four to
~ feet In thickness. Within the oval,
beyond the extended jaws. archeoIo-
gists have found an altar OF stones and
copper ornaments.
An old Indian fighter who died in
the West several years ago, nearly
lOU years old, declared he had heard
story In his younger days Of tribe
OF strange Indians in the SciOto val
ley who each year held fall festival
and gave a great powwow on snakes
back. He said he never could under
stand the meaning of the story until
later in life when he heard Of the
Mound Builders. His recollection of
the story, had II been given to stu
dents Of the mounds, might have served
to give them new theories on which
to base their research work. He said
the strange race were supposed to sac
rihce a certain number Of children
horn under the first full moon Of
spring. For this the Mound Builders
might have used the stone altar which
has been found.
