The officers and crews of the home boate and officials of the local com- panies lent @ hand in the landing. A great crowd of unofficial watchers was also present. Acting Harbormaster J. J. Perry greeted the feet lustily and Engmesr Davis made the Joo Blackburn whistle blasts of welcome. ‘The heaviest Potomac ice encountered was in Nanjemoy and Smith Point reaches.

A little below the light a Job: son line cattleman. bound for Liverpool, was passed aground. She had been driven a mile off her course by the ice. Clear water was ran through toa point off Annapolis. Here a floe drifting up was encountered. It extended from shore to shore and as far chead as the eye could reach. Broken tracks, where some hardy craf: had worked through, could be seen, but they had closed in and drifted away from thecourse. ‘They could not be utilized.

The jingle bell spoke and tho Samson an- ered. She cut into the foe with vim. She met with intense opposition. The ice was salt and tough. ‘The crashing and grinding noise made it un- comfortable to hear one's neighbor talk. The ice would break with riffe-like reports. Tho craft would climb up ox the ice field, show half her bull below the water line and list almost to the point of capsizing; the ice would then break aud the Samson sink to her waterways, buck against the ice edge and repeat.

Occasional ice was cut into between Cove Point and Drum Point, at the mouth of the Patuxent. From bere till Point Lookout was doubied at midnight it was clear cruising. All hands were on deck when the Potomac was entered. THE FIRST POTOMAC IcF. Blackiston’s Island was passed in good time. The first Potomac ics struck was off Breton’s | bay. It was loose drift and gave no trouble. Heavy broken drift was gone through of Lower Cedar Pomt. At Cobb bar, at the mouth of the Wicomico, the first solid ice was cut into. It was hard and brittle and different in quality from that | assed through in the bay. Sometimes the | Norfolk and Washington path was used, but the Samsou ran ber beak, as a rule, through the un- broken porte. At Maryland Point the gorge was ripped open with a great deal of bumping, grinding and thumping. The lights of the ‘emp r fromBBaltimore, came in sight off Mathias Point, and the Valen passed the Samson. Ice fifteen inches thick was broken off the month of Potomac ereck. Off Thomas’ Point the Samson ran her beak and bows on the ice and came to a dead stop. A few minutes of backing and sie slid off. Abead aguin and she went through. ICE TWO AND A HALF FEET THICK.

At that point the ice was | two feet thick. ‘The tug stopped, bucked and forged abead three times. The Samson then sheered across the river and found the Nor- folk’s track. This was followed to Washing.ov. | ‘The chopped path is about 100 feet wide and | the ice on either side ts broken and cracked by | the boats’ seas. | Of Quantico and Stump Neck the ice gave very little trouble.

Nothing bad was seen in the upper end of Fairfax reach. The ice between White House snd Marrhall Hall appeared weak and dark. It had the same look between Bryan's, Moxley's Piscataway creek was solidly coated with strong clear ice. Clear water was reached at Rosier’s Bluff and the channel continued free of ice tilloff Alex- sndria, where it filled with drift, This con- tinued to Washington. The track was left and the ice to the eastward cut through to She; herd’s. Patches of water and broken drift marked the balance of the way. Smith's Point light was burning last night.

Several days ago the Commissioners received from Congress for an expression of their views thereon the bill to authorize the Wasbington and Marlboro’ Electric Railway Company to extend its line within the District of Columbin. The Dill proposes to authorize the road to enter the District at and on the southeasterly boundary line of the District where the line of the road within Maryland shall reach the same, running thence by Bowen road or other most practicable route to the easterly end of Penn- Ivania avenue extended, thence along such 1ue to the easterly end of a trestle or other bridge to be built by the company across the Anacostia and over the Baltimore and Potomac’s tracks to the most southerly point of the Con- gressional cemetery. As the bridge feature belonged to the War Department the bill was sent to the Secretary of War for his views, He in turn sent it to Gen. Casey, chief of engineers, and todey the Commissioners received through the Secretary | of War reports on the bil! made by Major C. E. L. B. Davis and Gen. Casey. ‘MAJ. DAVIS’ REPORT, Maj.
