Smaller allot- ments are made to other works. In Addition to $1,484,000. Those allotments are in addition to $1.484.000 just allotted out of the unallotted balance from the river and harbor fund of $12,000.000, appropriated in June, 1920. The latter allotments included $1,000,000 for the Delaware river from Philadelphia to the sea and $300.000 for Ambrose channel, New York harbor. Gen. Beach explained that all these allotments are for maintenance and prosecution of only such projects as : have been heretofore authorized by law and in such amounts as are deemed most desirable in the inter- ests of commerce and navigation. He ssid that no allotments were made for projects in the District of Colum- bia for the reason that unexpended ‘balances from previous appropria- tions were considered sufficient for the operations contemplated during the coming fiscal year in keeping open the Virginia channe] of the Po- tomac river at Washington. Provi- sion for continuing the work of re- claiming the Anacostia river flats is covered In another appropriation bill. _FREDERICK BLACKHAND THREATS ARE RENEWED Banker Receives Third Letter and Judge Is Added to List of Men Subjected to Demands.

A demand for $300 is made on Judge ‘Worthington, under penalty of death. The writer designated the spot where the money is to be placed and threat- ened death if thes. request were ig- nored, and kidnaping of Miss Dorothy ‘Worthington, who is prominent in the yotinger social set in this city.

Clarice Sears Harrold Ram- say announced today that she®had soBl historic Westover, on the James river, to Richard T. Crane, United States minister to Czecho- slovakia. The price Mr. Crane Paid for the property is not dis- closed. Westover is not only one of the . most historic of all the great river plantations in Virginia, but it holds a peculiar interest for Rich- mond, since it was the home of that William Byrd who founded and laid off the city. The house, built of English material, is just 200 years old, vet it stands today as the best preserved of all the colonial mansions in Virginia. Westover takes its name from Henry West, fourth Lord Dela- ware and governor of the colony of Virginia, and was selected for him by his brother. Capt. Francis West, in 1619. It was patented as West and Shirley Hundred, later called West-Hundred, and in 1673 Capt. Thomas Pawlett repatented 2,000 acres. In 1 the planta- tion suffored an Indian massacre, when thirty-three persons were killed. Capt. Pawlett died in 1644, and Westover was sold to Theo- dorick Bland by his brother. Lord John Pawlett, in 1666, and in 1688 his two sons conveyed 1,200 acres to William Byrd of London for 300 pounds, English money, end 10,000 pounds of tobacco. CABLE APPEAL DATE SET.
