NEWARK. n. j., Apr. 5.-Post2l au-
thorities today issued stop order on
all mail addressed to the American
Deep Sea Trading Company upon re-
ceipt of a letter stating that the COM
pany was capitalized at 100000 to

the arid coast.
The letter inviting subscription to
its stock and limiting at returns of
81. $50 on a SO investment was given
to the postal authorities after 1t was
received by a church member here.
The Company's plan, according to
the letter is to operate three ships
from Liverpool to the three mile linn

PLAN ADOPTION OF
DAYLIGHT SAVING
Movement Gains Strong Ground
And Council May Pass
Ordinance Monday

Annapolis is going to adopt Day
light Saving. Preliminary steps in
this direction have been taken and
an ordinance will he drafted which.
it is expected will lie adopted at the
monthly meeting of the City Couna
Gil next Monday night. Naval au-
thorities here are heartily in favor of
the plan, and Rear-Admiral Henry b..
Wilson, superintendent of the Naval
Academy, has assured the municipal
officials of his cooperation.
Not only has there been a strong
movement here to adopt the plan, but
in a way, the city is virtually forced
to the issue by reason of the fact
that Baltimore has adopted it, One
thing pointed TO is the undoubted
confusion that would result to the
travelling public. For instance, per-
son leaving here, say on the 9;20 car
in the morning would be one hour be-
hind time in reaching Baltimore, ac-
cording to Baltimore time.
Applying the other angle Of a per-
son leaving Baltimore at 9:35, they
would arrive at Annapolis at the same
hour, in the event Daylight Saving
should not be effective here.

Y. ". c A. CAMPAIGN
FOR FRENCH NOW ON

Canvassers for the Young Women's
Christian Association Drive for the
budget are asked to bring in their
returns every day So far $1,000 have
been turned over for the budget.
The Young Women's Christian As
sociation is an organization founded
on the Christian idea of service and
is supported by voluntary contri-
buttons. 1t is not endowed and 1t
has no membership dues.
It is therefore important to make
the drive a successful one if the work
of the organization is TO go on. The
...Y" aims to he a centre for inspira-
ton and recreation. for congenial
comuanionship and for the quiet hour
roth to the women of the community
and "the stranger within the gates.
Through its classes it hopes TO give
girls an opportunity to develop great
er spirituality, increased efficiency
and. in many cases, added earning
power.
The Girls Club in city and county
are helpful and also give young peo-
pie an outlet for their natural desire
for new interests and entertain
ment.

VETS WOULD OBSERVE
BATTLE ANNIVERSARY

GETTYSBURG, PA, Apr. 5.-Civil
War veterans have started move
ment for the celebration of the Goth
anniversary of the battle of Gettys-
burg in July, 1928.
The local grand army post, sponsor
for the movement. has been assured
the cooperation of the chamber OF
commerce and of local business men.
and an effort will be made to ott@ m
Federal and State aid in financing the
project and getting a military G4spiay
worthy OF the occasion.
While the ranks of both the blue

thinned since the reunion here in
1913. when 5000 men from the North
and the South were under canvas,
it is believed the proposed celebra-
ton would meet with enthusiastic re-
sponse from the surviving veterans of
both factions.

YACHT RAMS CUTTER
UPSETT|NG M|DD|ES
Fourteen Embryo Naval Officers
Thrown Into Severn River
Yesterday Afternoon

4 board of naval officers began this
morning an investigation of the col
lision tetwoen a rowing cutter and
the New York yacht Ventura in Sew
ern river yesterday, as a result of
which the smaller craft was COM
pletely capsized and the IA midship-
men manning ii were thrown into the
chilly waters. Two of the number
also suffered slight bruises. None
was seriously hurt The investigat-
ing body is composed of Commander
Abram Claude. officer in charge of
ships, as president, and Lieutenant
Commander William d. Brereton, Jr.,
and Lieutenant Ralph Parr.
The yacht Ventura is a sloop rig
ged motor propelled craft of 25-ton
register and her skipper is Captain
e. Y Haskell. She was coming into
port about 5 o'clock yesterday. The
M;ddies were out in the river engaged
i'm a boat drill. The capsized cutter
was the last of column of several.
The collision is thought to have
been the result of accident. Captain
Haskell thought he could clear the
cutter, but hit her on the port bow

cutters containing midshipmen. some
of them in the overturned craft prob
ably would have teen drowned.

TO ASK FOR ELECTRIC
WATER PUMPING PLANT
Directors Of Company Hold This
Best Solution To I'M
prove Conditions
COST TO INSTALL, $4,000

That the installation of an electric
pumping plant at the works of the An
napolis Water Company is the most
feasible solution of improving and in
creasing the city water supply, is the
conclusion that has been reached by
the directors of the company.
1t is estimated that it will cost
about $4,000 for such a plant, and the
directors have decided to ask the City
Council to provide the necessary
funds for its installation. This move
probably will be made at the next
monthly meeting of the Council,
which will be on next Monday night.
For some time ii has been realized
that something must be done in order
to improve conditions at the water
works and the pumping project vas
the first thing to be considered. The
directors have investigated thorough
ly as to steam. oil or an electrically
driven plant, and it has been found
that the latter would be more salts
factory. Meanwhile the directors
conferred with officials of the Wash
ington, Baltimore and Annapolis Elec-
trio Railroad, which would have
to do with stringing the necessary
heavy feed wires and furnishing
power, and the company advises that
a charge of 3 cents per kilowat hour
would be the charge for current to be
supplied the. plant This, the direc-
tors regard as a reasonable charge.

WAY PROVIDED
TO Get PUPILS TO
TRACYS H. SCHOOL

The opportunity for giving a high
school education to the eligible pupils
in the lower section of the county was
provided for by the County Board OF
Education at yesterdays meeting,
when the Board unanimously passed
an order putting in the school budget
an item of $1,500 for their transpor-
tation to the Tracys Landing High
School. This, however, was coupled
with the proviso that the parents
themselves contribute towards the
fund to the extent TO 81 per month foI
each pupil
1t was pointed out by large dele
CATION of school patrons from that
neighborhood, headed by Samuel
Chew, of Owensville. that there are
now approximately 20 children living
within an eight-mile zone of the
school who, having finished the lower
grades, would attend the high school
but who would be barred from doing
so unless the transportation were
provided. Also that this number
would undoubtedly be increased as
the facilities became assured, thus
sitting the high school well up in
Group / and thereby getting some
thing like $500 additional from the
State under the general education
law.
The high school at Tracy's is the
only one i'm the county outside OF An
napolis and as stated in the Act OF the
Legislature of 1916. which authorized
it, was intended TO serve the whole
lower section of the county. The
principal obstacle in the way of doing
this has been transportation and as
the parents represented at the meet
| ing were in full accord with the sug-
gcstion that they contribute towards
this expense, and there being no
precedent against it, the School BoarG
decided to provide the transportation
by a bus covering a route TO be later
mapped out by the Board. This item
1 in the budget. however. is subject to
confirmation by the County Commits
sioners along with the rest of the
school budget when it comes before
that body in making up the annual tax
levy.

COL. ROWAN WHO BORE MESSAGE TO
 GARCIA, H0N0RED

San Francisco, June 2.-Iieutenant Colonel Andrew s. Rowan, retired. the man who carried the famous message to Garcia" in 1s9s, during the spantsh-American war will re- cetve a beiated recognition for bray cry, if Senator Samuel F. Shortridge Of California can bright 1t about. The senator has received assurances from Secretary Of War Weeks that he will take up with the Army Board having jurisdiction the granting of a medal or of a disttngutzhed service cross.
 Lieutenant General Nelson A. Miles ordered young Lieutenant Rowan to deIived message to Garcia" Dis cretton, initiative and bravery were required. Rowan did not ask who Garcia was, where he could be found Or how to get there. Instead, he de- Evered the message to General Gar cia, in the interior of Cuba, where Garcia with his little band of patriots was almost surrounded by Spanish forces. Rowan knew that if the naes- sage were intercepted by the span- tards he would be shot or hanged as a spy.
 Garcia, heartened by the promise of aid from the United States, just en- tering the war, with Spain, fought on, e.n dthe foe was overcome.
 Lieutenant Rowan was cited by General Miles in dispatches to Wash ington, as follows:
