the Rockbride delegation, but it remained
comparatively placid until the document was
concluded.
Mr.. Burke then moved that the answer be
spread upon the minutes of the meeting,
and in so doing dashed the blue into the
white powder, and the mixture commenced
to sizzle.
Mr.. Anderson moved rs an amendment,
that the answer be laid on the table. 1t was
an unjust and uncalled for arraignment of
the Valley stockholders, charging them with
disposition akin to reputation and trav-
cling out Of the records to attack them. The
Valley stockholders had rendered plain
business-like proposition, and the answer
returned was in the form of an Indictment.
He was unwilling that it should be placed
on the minutes, as it had never been the
practice to cucumber the records with such
documents.
Mr.. Duval, of Baltimore, answered that
the paper contained nothing but plain and
truthful statement of facts. 1t set forth in
unmistakable terms the position of the
Maryland stockholders, and responded to
charges that had been made against them.
The B. & O. r. R had been accused Of re-
tarding the interests OF the Valley enter
prise, placing obstacles in the way of its
completion and appropriating the finished
portion to its own uses. The reply that had
been read gave a calm review of the posi-
ton it occupied and such an impo. tant pa
per should by all means be placed on rec
ord.
The impression had been created that the
B. & O. r. r. did not desire to have the
road completed; that having secured con-
nection with the @. @. r. r. it was enabled
to make profitable its line north OF Harrison
burg, land that SO far from exerting every effort
to construct the road as it was originally de-
signed, it had interposed every impeachment
to that consummation. The rep.y Of che
