NEW ROAD URGED
FOR
Delegation Tells Commits
sioners DavidSonville Route
to Annapolis Is Best.

by the Associated Press.
ANNAPOLIS. September with
the opening of new and shorter
road between Annapolis and WASH
ineton by way of Davidsonville, a
delegation today appeared before the
Board of Anne Arundel County Com
mlssioners requesting that this road
be improved rather than the Defense
Highway.
The new road was opened through
the construction of about 5 miles of
gravel highway connecting the road
from Annapolis to Dsvidsonville to a
concrete and macadam road running
from the Grain Highway into Central
and Maryland avenues, Washington.
The entire highway Is paved with
hard-surfaced road, with the 5-mlle
gravel stretch.
The new route runs from Annapolis
10 Washington by way of Camp Parole,
Davidsonville, Hall Station, Seat
Pleasant and into Washington past
the White House Station. The new
gravel section Is built over a 60-foot
right of way. graded to 40 feet and
crosses the Patuxent River over a
new bridge 200 feet long and 80 feet
wide.
James A. Walton, former president
OF the county commissioners, one OF
those interested in securing the pres
ent Defense Highway when it was
first constructed, urged the further
improvement of the new route, as
against the Defense Highway.
j. Irving King of Davidsonville
asked the commissioners to take steps
to have the Smile gravel stretch on
the new route oiled as soon as pos
sible to lay dust. He declared the
new route was the logical site for an
Annapolis to Washington highway
and would divert considerable traffic
from the Defense Highway. giving
Washingtonians a shorter route to
beaches along West and South Rivers
and other points in Southern Anne
Arundel County.
Walton declared the new route was
the one contemplated by the late Gov.
Austin L. Crothers as the site for the
r Annapolis Washington Highway.

CASTEL GANDOLFO, Italy, Sep
TENDER 4.-Prelates close to Pope Plus
said today they believed the pontlff
probably would convoke consistory
during the first half of october.
The consistory, they said, would be
for the creation of cardinals, since
their number in the Sacred College
has been greatly diminished by death.
At present there are only 40 cardi-
mails out of a possible total of 10.
The prelates said the next consistory
will include the elevation of Arch
bishop Copello of Buenos Aires to the
rank of cardinal. The last conSistory
for the nomination of cardinals was
held in February, 1888.

fore. with another raging sea.
But the sea has already subsidized
and the tremendous rolling and pitch

sengers and crew of the Dixie"
The Dixie. her black hull giving a
scalloped effect as the sea broke
around her, lay broadside on the reef
a short distance from the Platano,
said Depperman.
Waves Dash High.
'Waves dash almost up to her white
superstructure," he continued. "A
heavy swell seems to be running
around the Dixie, which will make
rescue operations precarious.
Capt. C.. D. McRae Of the Platano
Is silent as he stares across the sea to
the Dixie. He stands grimly, await
ing the first indication that it is safe
to lower the life boats.
The officers and crew of the Platano
are standing by. Like the captain,
communicative, they are almost
grim. There is serious business afoot.
The Coast Guard cutter Carrabas-
set, which left Miami last night, re-
ported gruelling passage to the scene.
I'VE arrived" the wireless said, at
8 am. after a sleeplesS night during
which the Carrabassett bucked noun
famous waves and a 55-mile wind.
Capt. John McGann, with his sub
ordinate officers, spent the night on
the bridge.

"Seas smashed the wheelhose win
dows and Quartermaster Claude Sim
mons, who was at the wheel, received
a deep cut on his leg when he was
struck by large piece of glass from
one Of the broken windows.
THE forward port was smashed
and the quarters of the crew flooded.
From the Carrabassett the Dixie
appears to be lying high with a list
of about degrees to starboard. The
seas are moderating, but there is q
stiff wind"
An Associated Press reporter flew
over the Dixie today and reported
that the ship looks all right, al
though she lists slightly to the star
board"
The passengers seem cheerful and
unworried" he said. Most of them
are dressed in their sports clothes
Lining the rails, they cheered and
waved as we circled about them"
The Dixie was en- route from New
Orleans to New York. Its passengers
are from all parts of the country,
more than 100 of them from the
vicinity around New York.
To anxious relatives calling the
officers of the Morgan Line in New
York officials were able to give Capt.
Sundstrom's message:
"All well. Every member of crew
has rendered perfect service. Pas
sengers calm and in good spirits

night. It broke his heart.
He went on to the house,
rafting the door-knob to pre-.
pare her for his coming. She
was again sitting in her low
chair, listless and silent, as he
had left her. All at once fear
struck at his heart.
Hester" he asked, would
you like to go home?"
eyes, she answered, and this
time she did not cling to him.
Hester Goes Home
It took all Stephens fortitude
to meet the days after Hester
had gone. He had received no
word that the question Of his
leave had been taken up with
New York. Two months Of days
must intervene before he could
expect to hear, two months Of
days filled with the idle occu-
patton of guarding the tanks.
After a time, he walked the
treadmilll Of his days numb to
any deep feeling. Then his re.
lease came. A letter arrived
granting him leave. and on the
next mornings train, appeared
Walter Cheatham to relieve
him.
Cheatham was the bearer Of
exciting news. The director had
dropped down suddenly on
China and was making drastic
changes in the organization.
ANY club around here?" he
asked.
NO." said Stephen.
Cheatham sat down.
There's to be a new mana
ger in Shanghai" he went on.
"They say he's fine. Different
sort. college man, someone
who can really represent the
company. Skinflint's retiring on
a jolly fine pension guess, from
all I hear. Wonder what the
director will do to Manchuria
when he gets here? Stir it up,
I'll bet"
CHAPTER 16
Two days later, when Stephen
reached the main office, al
ready the stir had begun. The
director had come in on the
train from Tientsin only a few
hours earlier. All the men had
been called in from the substa-
tions, and Kendall from Vladi.
vostok, although it was an indie
pendent station. Stephen had
understood the business in
Vladivostok had been a kind Of
Subrosa affair, in which his
friend had had to pose as a free
lance.
Wonder why Kendall is
here" he thought. Good to
see him, though. Haven't set
eyes on him since that day in
New York when we were green
classmen. Neater, trimmer than
he used to be. Has a confident
air Of having succeeded"
But he had only a few mo-
ments to talk with Kendall, for
almost Immediately he was
called into conference with the
director who had turned the
outer room into a private office
for himself.
He began questioning Stephen
about the fire. In the eyes Of
the company, Stephen saw it
was simply a matter of proving
whether or not he had acted
hastily; it wasn't a question Of
Hester and the baby; that was
the personal side which didn't
enter into it.
Strange, he thought, the old
boss isn't called in. He'd have
backed me up. But there wasn't
much time to think about it
he must make good on his own
if that something big the direc.
tor talked about a year ago was
to come through.
After the conference, he went
across the hall to the boss Of
flee. Come in" called the ia.
miliar gruff voice in response to
his knock.

COTTON ACTIVE.
AND STRONG

NEW YORK, April Is G.N.SD.
Cotton futures we're strong and
active in the morning session
today with the May contract
leading the market upward on
spot house buying due tothe is
Suance of only comparatively
small number of call notices.
In addition to spot house buy
ing, strong support came in from
various othre sources, principally
the Far East, and Liverpool.
The Continent switched to the
buying side also and short COW
ering was an important factor in
sustaining the market. Sellers
included commission houses, the
South, and locals.
Liverpool quotations were mixed
and provided little incentive to
either buying or selling. The
slight issuance of call notices on
the May contract, although al
ready anticipated due to the even
ing off of the leading spot inter
estS, was primary factor in the
gain in all contracts.
Towards noon May was quoted
at 11.63 up II, December, 11.36
up IL; March, 11.49 up 10 points;
