PIsbs Call for an Appropriation of $1,350, - 000, Bat Only Comparitively Small Amount Wsnted to Befto Work. Able Presentation A special to theBaleigh News and Observer of yesterday has the follow ing in reference to the improvement of the upper Cape Fear .river which has been so strongly urged by the Wilmington and Fayetteville commer cial bodies during the past year: "Major E. J. Hale, of Fayettevillo appeared today -before the Housa Committee on Bivers and Harbors and presented the case of the Cape Fear Kiver improvement plan, in which the United States engineer re ports that eight feet at low water throughout the year may be ob tained. He was accompanied bv Sena tor Simmons and Congressmen Bella my, Thomas and Pou. The plan calls for a total appropria tion of $1,350,000, but it friends will be content for the present with an ap propriation of any amount sufficient to begin work on the plan recommend ed by Gapt. Lucas. This provides for three locks, each 150 in the chamber and 28 feet wide with movable dams 170 feet long, the plan being similar to that employed on the Kanawah Biver. .- "The distinguishing feature of Maj. Hale's argument was the demonstra tion which seemed to greatly impress the committee, that the peculiar sea coast of North Carolioa, jutting out over 150 miles east of the normal line, was responsible for the hitherto com mercial inferiority of our Bute to her neighbors, and that except approach to our back country be bad via the Cape Fear river and Fayetteville, wnica is precisely on the normal coast line, tbe trade of central and western North Carolina is intercepted by the ports of neighboring States over shorter lines. "He also contrasts the cost of tbe Manchester ship canal, seventy-five million .dollars serving" seven and a half millions of people, with tbe cost of -the proposed Cape Fear river improvement, which will serve two millions of neonie. He said that if the British could value an Englishman for such purposes at ten dollars per head, the American Gov ernment might afford to value an American at 68 cents per head, which would be the cost per head of people served by the Cape Fear -river scheme. "Senator Simmons and liepresenta tive Pou who were present say that the comm ttee was most favorably im pressed by Major Hale's speech, and elaborate maps and other telling ex hibits were handed the committee as the argument proceeded. It was a great presentation of a scheme which means much for our State. It will be recalled that this plan has the endorsment of our Legislature." L'AQILE COTILLON CLUB.

'Ere the golden bowl wss broken a ripe old age had blessed and hallowed a life endeared to us by its many virtues. His was a spirit ever genial and courteous, and in his life we have an example of the bright side of human nature.

Frequent mention has been made in these columns from time to time relative to the superiority of the splendid new instrument and it now alone remains to be said that it is in every way up to the most sanguine expectations of the good ladies who have worked so faithfully for its in stallation. A number of the best organists in the city, by invitation, yesterday evening tested the instru ment and found it rich in tone, ad mirably adapted to church music and in every way modern and of the most desirable manufacture.

Fight for Wilmington Collector ship in Washington is Ea gerly Watched Here.' THE DISTRICT ATTORNEYSHIP Pritchard Is Said to Favor Skinner, Bnt It Will Take Some Time to Settle Upon an' Endorsement. Those Present f : Si The .most pertinent inquiry in the local body politic yesterday was, "Who has been appointed Collector of the port!" . Friends of the several candidates for tbe position are eagerly awaiting defi nite news from Washington, but thus far each day has only served to in crease tlMir anxiety. The will of Sen alor Pritchard, upon which hangs the appointment by PresTdenFRoosevelt, appears to be still wrapped in doubt. but a disclosure is expected at any mo ment. There are now in Washington look ing after the appointment. Deputy Collector John E. Taylor, (col.), Mr. B. F. Keith, Col. A. H. Slocumb, and ex- Governor Russell, the last named ostensibly in the interest of Mr. D. L. Gore. Assistant Postmaster T. E. Wal lace is also there, as is Collector Dancy, (col.), and both being influen tial Bepublicans of tbe city in which the appointment is to be made, it is naturally presumed that they are w irking for their respective favorites. A secondary consideration, for the present at least, in connection with the fight, is the subordinate offices at tached to tbe collectorship. A deputy and assistant deputy collector will be named at the will of the appointee and there are also to be filled the offices of boarding- officer and inspector and janitor. Good round salaries are at tached to each and following close upon tbe appointment there will, of course, be a multiplicity at candidates for these places. Regarding the North Carolina con tests in general at the Capital, the Raleigh Post yesterday printed the following special dispatch from Wash ington : "Senator Pritchard announced to the Post correspondent to-day that he would recommend tne appointment of Harry Skinner to the President for the position of District Attorney for the Eastern District of North Carolina.This practically settles the matter and eliminates both Bernard aud Russell from the problem. At the same time both the names of Bernard and of Russell will be presented to the Presi dent and their appoitnment will be urged by their friends. Judges Doug lass and Cook are backing Russell, and Bernard has numerous papers on file in his favor. "While Russell and Bernard are fisrhtinsr. each for himself, both are agreed as opposing Skinner, and this evening there are rumors in tbe air that charges will be filed against Skin ner. The nature of them is not dis closed. "This statement by Senator Pritch ard in regard to favoring Skinner bears out the announcement made six months asro and repeated at intervals since, that Bernard; would not succeed himself. Ul course It is possible tnat Pritchard may be turned down, but if he is not no one will be more surprised than himself. "Senator Pritchard's arrival was awaited with great anxiety by all. He was beseiffcd all day at his hotel, at the Senate chamber and at his commit tee room in the Msltby, by the hords of office seekers who had preceded him and who were as thick as bees in a buckwheat patch. Senator Pritchard told all comers that he would not use up the question of office to-day. He will, however, do so to-morrow, ana will present to the President the recommended candidates for United- States District A ttorney and Collector of Customs at Wilmington. Those for District Attorney here are ex-Gov ernor Russell and Mr. Bernard; for Collector at Wilmington, Messrs. Slocomb, Keith and Gore." MASONS ELECT OFFICERS.
