INLAND WATERWAYS.
In the scheme of building: an inter
ior waterway -from, the rugged rocks of
Maine to the sand pita of iFlorida,
Congress early recognized the neces
sity of connecting: up well denned wa
ter avenues along the Atlantic coast,
to the end that the perils of Hatter
aa and other danger spots along; the
Atlantic shores might be avoided.
As a part of the project the Chesa
peak and Albemarle canal waa pur
chased by the Federal government at
an upset price of (500.000, title to the
same having passed to the United
Eta tea within the past sixty days. This
Is a connecting waterway between,
Norfolk. Va., and Beaufort, N. C.,: be
ing a part of the Boston to Beaufort
Inlet, N. C, section of the proposed
continuous inland waterway from New
England to the Rio Grande. The
purchases of the canal having been
accomplished, the Engineer Corps will
shortly advertise for bids to deepen
this waterway '12 feet, with a width
of 100 feet. To aid in the work of
excavation, a dredge will also be con
tracted for. -

WALL STREET TODAY
New Tori1. Aug. 6 10:45 a. m.
Although inclined towards irregular
ity, early dealings in today's stock
market pointed to a continuance of
the upward movement- Union Pacific,
Feuthern Pacific. Great Northern
Pacific, Reading, New York Cetnral
and St. Paul all rose over yesterday's
closing prices, while Western. Union
rained a point. Trading was in mod-,
crate volume and lacked the preced
ing day's breadth. ' :
Noon Union Pacific continued the
feature of the early session, though
adding nothing to its rise. Other
market leaders were laggards, Bteel,
Amalgamated and Reading making
rery slight, improvement frpm early
recessions. The movement brought
out some Inconspicuous issues. Colo
rado aad Southern Pacific preferred
and American Locomotive gained 2
points. Virginia-Carolina Chemical
preferred fell 3. Profit taking follow
ed the rise and much of the advance
was lost before noon, when the market
became -very dull. Bonds were steady.
It is strange-how many more sick
friends there are to be visited Sun
flay morning after you get an automo
bile, particularly when the dust has
lias been laid.

$8,000,000 OWED
BY INVENTOR OF
AIRSHIP IN PARIS
Paris, Aug. 6 Debts amounting to
$8,000,000 are owed to various people
by Arm and Deperdussin, the aeroplane
Inventor who was arrested here, yes
terday, on charges of breach of trust
and forgery. Against these liabilities
his assets, which are somewhat vague,
are estimated at $4,000,000. His bank
ers hold his paper for $6,400,000, while
other, creditors claim $1,600,000.
The newspapers here recount many
stories of Deperdussin's personal e:
travagance. He was the ' foremost
patron of aviation in France and spent
money- with the utmost prodigality, al
ways feeling confident that i aviation
would develop much more extensively
than it has done. ,

UNDERJCRUTINY
Washington, Aug. 6 copies of the
revised draft of the Glass currency

late yesterday, by Democrats of the
House currency . committee, were in
circulation about the 'capitoL today,

tiny by friends and opponents of the
President's currency reform plan.
One of the amendments, making the
federal reserve board to a. partial ex
tent . by-partisan by having the ap
pointive members divided between po
itical parties, is expected to allay
somewhat opposition based on fear Of
"political control" of the proposed
new currency system. -k
Antagonists of the Glass bill expect
to direct their chief attack ' in next
Monday's Iemocratio: caucus toward
securing amendments to ' establish a
regular currency based on supplies of

Among the first letters presented for

former Congressman . Higgine of Con
necticut, addressed to Barnhart Broth
ers & Spindler, ; of Chicago, acknowl
edging the receipt of their views on the
"Moon Bill,' and their reply to Mr.
Higginne. Several letters written by
Daniel Davenport, of Bridgeport, to
Mr. Emery were also read' into the rec
ord. These related Ito the anti-injunO-
tion bills pending before Congress two
years ago. In a letter written by Mr.

facturers Association he said that he
had that day been before the 6om-
mittee of Interstate Commerce of the
Senate, and had- been subjected to a
pretty sharp examination from Sena

Brandegee," he wrote, "was anx
ious to bring out matters that he
thought of-advantage to our statement
of the case." L :.-, V ;
Juet before, the close of the session
last evening a letter from Mr.' Emery
to John Kerby, former .president of the

Emery said: ' "I should like to.be with
you at Hartford, as I hoped to be, but
matters here win prevent. .1 trust you
will make it a point to express our ap
preciation of the prompt and highly
efficient co-operation which we have
always received from the Connecticut
organizations. I hope, too, you will
urge upon them the surpassing impor
tance at this time of maintaining and
increasing the efficiency of" their or
ganization in every possible way. We
are face to face with a legislative and
political situation for which there is no
effective defence except through sys
tematically organized and intelligently
directed effort."
This letter was dated May 15, 1912.

last night voted that the district com
mittee repair both school houses at
an expense not to exceed $500, but
failed to make a corresponding reduc

meeting voted to lay a two mill tax
to cover an estimated cost of $1,000
for repairs, and it now looks as
though another meeting win be neces- 1

sum may be raised for school taxes ;
than the cost of the work for which
such tax is levied.
