BUSINESS ON THE CANAL continues very
SLOW on account of the strike no coal at ali
having been received this week The follow
ing from the Cumberland kHeodniIn,, ex-
plains the condition OF affairs: alt was the
current opinion yesterday that the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad strike would help
the counterpart undertaking of the inland
navigators at Sir Johns Run. and would
probably lead to some compromise between
boatmen and shippers. This theory seems
to be borne out by the undisputed fact that
yesterday one of our most extensive boat
owners and large private shippers inter
viewed number of agents with reference 10
having al the companies submit a PROPOSE
ton TO the boatmen Offering IS and 90 cents
to Georgetown and Alexandria respectively.
also TO unite on request to the canal COM
pany TO reduce tolls or 10 cents the said re-
duction 10 be given to the boatmen, thus
making the rates to Georgetown and a lex
andria, respectively, 50 and 95 cents or Ok
cents and sfO0, according as the canal COM
pany may concede reduction OF or 10
cents. The suggestions of the gentleman
were generally well received by the agents,
and by 10 morrow we may be able to chroni-
Gle movement of this kind taking practical
shape. IL 10 thought that some reduction
may be made by the canal company if il is
clearly guaranteed that the boatrnen will
get the benefit of it."
