Faithfully yours, THEODORE ROOSEVELT. To Mr. William H. Sammons.
While  coming  in  Jones'   Inlet  last | Tues(lay    in    his     schooner    Francis i Smith, Captain George Baldwin ran on i a  bar,   just   inside the inlet.    He was : loaded  with  a cargo of coal consigned to R. P. Welden.    About 25 tons of the ' load   was  thrown  off   and    the    boat cleared  from   the   bar,   when    it  was found that she was leaking  badly  and it  was  necessary   to beach her, which was  done  on  a  bar  near "Capt. Ed¬ wards'   station."    Mr.    Welden    sent Capt.   Foster  Post down and  removed part  of  the cargo of the schooner and . before  this  was unloaded at  Freepori dock   the  PVancis Smith rolled over on her  aide  and  lost  the  balance of htr cargo.    It is very doubtful if the  h6at can  now  be  removed as  she  is  well' settled in the sand.    This inlet is  very treacherous and a large number of ves¬ sels have run on its bars, but the  gov- i ernment  refuses all requests to have it throughly opened for navigation. ,

There is some talk as to the kind of a "carnival" the firemen propose hav¬ ing in connection with the annual con¬ vention of the Southern New York Vol¬ unteer Firemen's Association in Octob¬ er, and I have been asked if it waa in¬ tended to have an affair aimilar to the one held here two years ago, of some of the features of which nobody is very proud. Our best answer ia that John D. Gunning, Village President, is Chief of Police, and John J. Dunbar is police captain, and it is up to them to see that all the amusements and attractions are run strictly according to the lavv, and they will do it too.
The committees will do their best to give good clean attractions and if anything   objectionable   should appear
