THEY REPLY
TO MATHEWS
'Answer of the Majority of tile
Joint .Committee on Oyster
Legislation.
THE RETORTS MADE BY THEM
Say Mr. Mathews Was Absent
a Part of Time and Docs Not'
Know Just What Was Done.
Hons. W, D. Cardwoll, E. C. Jordan,
A. D. Wnlklne and Julian Bryant, tho
majority of tho loglslntlvo Joint Commit?
tee on Oyster Legislation, have prepared
a statement In tho nnturo of an answer
to tho minority report filed by' Hon. 8.
Wilklns Mathews, n. member of thu com?
mittee, In tho course of which they an?
swer In eorno detail tho asHcrllotiH and
arguments of Mr. Mathews and defend
tho ' accuracy of their report. It Is n
typewritten document of moro than six
puges, and therefore too long to print in
full,
The committee denies that It examined
only ten lior cent, of the area, embraced
within thy Baylor survey. Tliey stty In
reply that forty per cent, of tho.State's
oyniur rock la situated in Accomac und
Northampton counties, and that they ex?
amined practically ull this. They deny
that they only spent a small portion of
tho time In examination. They declare
that they worked all the seventy-seven
days except In storms, and even then
talked to the people. They retort that Mr.
Mathews himself was with the committee
but a portion of the time, and could not
tell what tho majority actually did. Tho
committee specify various extensive areus
examined, without Mr. Mathews ac?
companying them.
REPLY TO CHARGE. '
An to tho charge that, they picked the
rocks to examine at tho suggestion of
packers and planters, actuated by solf
InLerest, they reply that It could not be
expected that any save those desiring to
lease rock would tnko the trouble to show
?the committee where the Imrren or de?
pleted portion was. Accompanying the
committee wero twenty limes as many
longer* na planters, and the longors
V'ere represented whenever they examined
rock.
The committee then quotes Mr. Ma?
thews against himself, printing the pre?
amble of a hill offered last year by him
In the Houso and enacted Into law, as
follows:
Whereas, there are within the Hints of
tho Baylor survey, on tho eastern or
ocean side of Accomac county, many
acres designated,'as natural oyster rock,
which aro not now natural oystur rock,
much of which mild ground wos Included
In' said survey by misapprehension, and
much of which has been depleted since
H.-iid survey was made, to such an extent
that there Is no hard substance loft upon
which oysters can catch; and
Whereas tills condition exists on tho
?-.intern or ocean side of wild county to
:ir. extent far more Horlous than in any
r ll;er counties of the State, a KTeat. neces?
sity exists for an Immediate remedy; and
Whereas tho State at thlB time receives
no revenue from the said ground, etc.
.?The act has since been repealed, but
tne facts recited therein by Mr. Mathews,
ihe committee aver, have not changed.
There are other counties In which a more
n< rlous condition exists than in Acco
mnc.
SAFEGUARD PRODUCTIVE ROCK.
The majority promise to rigidly safo
Kuard tho productive rocks from any dan?
ger as a result of leasing out barren or
depleted rock. Tho committee cannot
i-ee how the lease of depleted rock can
pauperize bo many, ns Mr. Mathews nl
leges It will. They contend that on the
contrary, employment will be furnished
those now eking out a livelihood and at
more remuneration. Ten acres, they con?
tend, when planted will furnish more em?
ployment nnd bettor returns than 100
Jjarren ncres, as now.
The committee deny that there Is any?
thing In the Jordan bill that will injure
iho clamming Industry. This clnw catch
clams under their oyster license. No extra
tax Is exacted therefor. Working of clam
heels In oyster spawning scaBon. the com?
mittee contends, tends to the destruction
of tho oyster beds.
The comsiltteo answers the charge that
negroe-H will ho enlisted as employes by
planters by asserting that alnrtjo majority
of the tongers aru negroes. The commit?
tee denies that the Jordan bill will "break
tip" or In any way affect tlio crabbing In?
dustry, as Air. Mathews charges would
rcstitl. Tho amount collected from crab?
bers last year was but $570.
Tho commltte express amazement at
Mr. Mathews' chargo that there has been
no diminution of the quantity of seed
oysters. Every tonger who appeared, they
reply, admitted that tho quantity of both
peed and marketable oysters on the nat?
ural rocks 1b decreasing year by year. The
increase In the business Is attributed to
planted beds, and it Is thus that tho com
inittee bill hopes to foster the Industry
nnd Increase tho State's revenue. The
nnswer of tho committee quotes statis?
tics showing how tho Industry hns-grown
in other States and countries by the very
plan they propose, viz.: Lease nnd culti?
vation of tho barren or depleted rook.

BASS THE MAN.

in the Norfolk Game.
Tho Tlmes-Dlspatch, In common -with
the Norfolk paperB ,and all others rep?

ascribing the fifty-flvo yard run by Vir?

ter back hntl glory enough without this,
and It Is but Justice, cheerfully accorded,
to say that Bass, Virginia's sturdy little
half back, is entitled to tho credit to this,
the' greatest run of the game. From tho
press stand sixty yards ucros3 to where
tho runner was thrown it was Impossible
to recognizo jhe player with the. ball,
and all tho reporters erred In attributing
the run to Pollard, who had made many
dashing gains. Hats are off to Bass for
his brilliant work and the star play of a
game that was a regular scintillating con?
stellation.

Tho turkey which President Roosevelt
and family will discuss on Thanksgiving
Day will not bo among?tho many tho
President will purchase. Mr. Plnkney,

notified that tho President would bo
sent a turkey from Rhode Island by Mr.
Horace Voso, of that State, and that it
would bo tho finest gobbler that would
grace any table In tho Union noxt Thurs?
day'.'
For thirty years and moro, ever since
tlio last administration of President
Grant, Mr. Voso has been furnishing tho
turkey for Thanksgiving dinner, at tho
White House, and has become so proud'
of the prerogative that it is said that
ho has succeedod In breeding a strain
that, in slzo at least, surpasses anything
known elsewhoro In tho turkey kingdom.
But Mr. Roosevelt will buy a larger
number of turkeys than wero over
bought for Thanksgiving by any of his
predecessors. It is a rulo at the Whito
House that all the marrlod omployes
shall be given a turltoy on Thanksgiving,
and as thero ure now far mom than over

will be much greater.
For tho first time at a Thanksgiving

ARREST OF
IMPORTANCE
Negro Charged With. Snatching
a Pocket-Book From
a Lady.
POSITIVE IDENTIFICATION
Dragged Her Along the Street
for Nearly a Block, as She
Screened,
What may turn out to be a most Im?
portant arrest was made by Policeman
Wiltshire, of Ire Second District, last
night about 10 o'clock, when he landed be?
hind tho Second Station bars a', negro
named James Taylor, better known us
"Tho Kid."
The specific, chargo against him was
pocket-book snatching, and ho was Identi?
fied by Mrs. Gus Perkinson aB tho man
who grabbed her purse containing J32.50,
as sho wns about to enter her front gate,
at No. 1918 East Broad Street, shortly
after S o'clock last night.
Mrs. Perkinson had been to her huH
bnnd's place of business to tako him cer?
tain articles of clothing, and was return?
ing home.
DRAGGED HETt ALONG.
When near her front door, the negro
inn up to her, caught hor purse, which
was hanging from her wrlBt by a small
chain. Mrs. Perklnfion held tight to the
chain and screamed. The negro nulled
savagely, and dragged tho lady almost
to Nineteenth Street. Finally, the chain
gavo away and the man ran ilf.
Sho had t'.mo enough to see him arrJ to
b? able to Identify him. She quickly sent
word to Mr. Perkinson, the police were
notified nnd Officer Wiltshire went out
on tho case. The description given him
was a good one, and tallied with that of
a negro ho hnd under suspicion for some
time. He went to his room at No. 1421
Brown Street, and arrested the man.
PREPARED FOR A TRIP.
Taylor had Just purchased a new over?
coat, a satchel and other articles, and hnd
evidently prepared himself for a trip. In
his pocket he had $4.53.
He was carried to the station-house,
and at that place told Sergeant Hold
croft that ho had bought the new stuff
with money he had won at cards In a
place on Seventeenth Street.
After placing him In a cell Mrs. Per?
kins was sent for. The moment she saw
tho negro sho said:
"That's the man," and It seemed a set?
tled fact that the pocket-book snatcher
who had operated around tho city for
some time, and against whom several
complaints had been lodged, had at last
been caught. The negro denied that he
was the man wanted, but the Identifica?
tion was so complete, and the circum?
stances surrounding tho coho wero of
such a nature, as to cause the police to
feel that they had the right man.
Others will try to identify him this
morning. Tho case will be heard In the
Police Court to-day.
United States Court.
In the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals
yesterday two cases were '.argued and
submitted,' Judges Coff? Slmont6n and
McDowell sitting. '..."?'.'
The first case was that of the commis?
sioners of Wicomico county, Md., vs.
Samuel Bancroft, appellee, from the
Marvland Circuit Court. The case in?
volved the right of the county to levy
taxes upon certain railway property
claimed to be exempt. It was argued by
James E. Ellegood for the appellant and
by Nicholas P. Bond for the appellee, and
submitted.
The other caso was the reargument of
Gastonia Cotton Manufacturing Company
vs. W. L. Wlso. from tho Circuit Court
at Charlotte. This case was argued first
In November, 1902. Buxwell. Walker and

lett. of Charlotte, for the defendant in
error.

Washington to Wed.
Detective Gibson nnd Officers McMahon
and Pillow, of the Third District, arrested
Junius Haskins, a man aged thirty-four
years, at Elba Station last night about
8:30 o'clock. He was charged with ab?
ducting a thlrtoen-yoar-old girl named
Luclle Austin, who, he said, agreed to
go to Washington and marry him.
Tho girl was a mere tot in size as well
as an infant in the law's eyes, and she
was taken from the man and sent to her
home in Fulton.
It appeared to bo a runaway affair,
but owing to the tender years of the
officers thought best to frustrate the plan.
Tho girl very willingly accompanied the
officers to her home.
Haskins will tell his side of It in the
Police Court this morning.

Rioters Tliere.
MAY DECLARE1 STRIKE OFF
Conference Last Night Among
the Members of the Street
Railway Union.
(By Associated Press.)
CHICAGO, ILL., Nov, 23.-Flerco fight?
ing, In which- the police used their clubs
freely, nnd twice their revolvers, marked
tho opening of the Stnto-Stteot cable lino
by the Chicago/ City Railway to-day, As
far a? can bo ascertained, nobody was
Berlously Injured, although thero woro
many broken heads ' among tho rioters
who camo,into contact with clubs of the
police. If any members of tho mob wero
Injured by the bullets ot tho p.?lice and
non-union men on the tars they woro
carried oft by their friends before the
fact was known to others. "While tho
fighting was goliiR on In the "treets the
usual conferences ucro In orogross and
propositions and counter-propositions
were passing back and forth.
Late in tho aftornoon It wbjj said by
Mayor Harrison, President Mahon, of the
utreot car men, and tho attorneys for
both sides, that an agreemont had boen
reached, but Uttlo doflhlto was known
concerning its nature,
MAY DECLARE STRIKE OFF. '
Late to-night the street car men locked
themselves In a room on the elovated
floor of the Ashland block, tho com?
pany's offices being In a -oom on tho
ninth floor and tho conference wero
again.In full blast, 1:. was predicted that
the strlko would be doclared off by to?
morrow morning, but nothing was given
out from either nfleetlng to make such an
assertion certain.
The hardest fighting of the day ,took
place at Forty-first and State Streets,
where a mob hiding behind a fence stoned
the cars which were guarded by ofll
cers. Tho police were over the fence at
onco and fired several ishots over the
head of tho fleeing of . the strikers. Many
of the mob who were slow of foot, were
overtaken by the police and soundly rap?
ped with clubs. Few arrests wero made,
the officers contenting themselves with
scattering tho crowd.
FIRED INTO CROWD.
Conductor J. P. Prenter was in charge
of the train which was attacked, and
when tho stone's commenced to whiz past
his head and smash the windows of his
car, he promptly drew a revolver and
fired at the crowd, until the cartridges
In his weapon were exhausted. Tho- cars
were attacked' at the same point or.: tho
return trip, and a number of shots were
fired, the mob scattering like a flock
ot chickens..
All day long on State Streot, the com?
pany was hampered'by tho work of tho
mob which piled obstructions upon the
tracks, and drove pegs.and spikos.into
the cable slot 'and ct}t trolley,. wires In
many placos. The^fArcher- Avenue line
was badly d am age'di early In the day, and
required several hours'>rwork by a'strong
force of repairmen',' who"-we're heavily
guarded by the 'police. No nttempt has
been made to run cars on this lino since
tho commencement of tho strike.
The opening of the State Street line to?
day gave the company flvo lines on
which cars were run.,'The sendee', .how?
ever, Is not of a character to be generally

PETERSBURG, VA., Nov. 23.?The
plant of the Petersburg Wood Supply
Company hero burned to-night by a fire
which was discovered Just before mid?
night, Tho fire was well under way
when discovered, and for some reason

tho ground.
The destroyed plant was located a short
dlstanco below the union depot, on the

engaged principally In the manufacture*

MOST INSIDIOUS
ENEMY OF LABOR
-r?
The United States Senate Ar?
raigned Before the Fede?
ral ."t.
(By Associated Press.)
BOSTON. Nov. 23.-Aft.ar sessions
which continued thirteen days, the twen?
ty-third annual convention of tho Amer?
ican Federation of Labor has adjourned
sine die. To-night, In bidding good-bye
to his follow-delogabos, President Goin
pers said: , , .,'..
"This convention unquestionably 1ms
been one of the most memorable ana
most significant In the history of the
whole labor movomcnt."
"What was regarded as one of tho most
memorable Incidents of tho convontlon
uovolnpod Just before Its close. It was
furnished* by Delegate Andrew Furusoth,
of San Francisco, who, in defending the
Legislative Committee of the Federation,
arraigned the United States Senate and
declared that -It- contained tho most in
Bldlous .enemies of labor. :
"I tell you," he said, "and I want to
leave these words with you, that thero
is In tho Senate a party without,*- name,
thnt deliberately and-with malice afore
thought, step by stop, la taking from
the working people every, right tho men
have and that is creating conditions
which will make your, legislation in
other dlrootlona of no use."
Mr. Furusoth told the convention that
Senators Piatt, or Connecticut; Lodge,

WANT TO HOLD ON,
FOR CUBAN MEASURE
Leaders of the House Not Dis?
posed to Agree to Adjourn?
ment of Congress.
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.?While no
proposlUon hns boon transmitted to tho
House of. Representatives from tho Sen?
ate looking to an early adjournment of
the extra session of Congress, this mat
tor was the subject of several confer?
ences between loadors of tho Houso and
Speaker Cannon, ?
There was but one sentiment expressed,
and that was that adjournment ought
not to be taken until the Cuban measure
was finally disposed of, or tho extra
sosslon lapsed into tho regular session.
With this 'view of tho case, tho tentative
programme of the House will bo to ad?
journ for thren days at a . time. It in
well known that there is not a quorum
of the Houso at present In Washington,
and should the point of "no quorum"
be raised at any session of the Houso
adjournment can only bo made a singlo
day, under tho rules.
Should the Senate transmit to the
House a resolution for adjournment of
the special session, tho present disposi?
tion of that body will bo to ignore tltu
resolution on tho ground .that thoro Is
not a quorum present to consider It.
