CHANGE OF MANAGEMENT. The newly organ
lied board of directors of the Maryland Central
Railroad lately elected Capt. VIM. Ii. Bians
General Superintendent, and on Friday last
Capt. Bians assumed the duties of the position.
Mr.. VIM. II. Waters has been the President and
General Manager, and still continues as Presi.
dent, but, 1t is understood, without salary MIR.
VIM. Gimor retains his position as Vice Presi-
dent, also without salary, and Mr.. s. q. Boyd
Freight Agent, at a reduced salary. t-.. .. !
One of the prominent new directors says the
receipts of the road are increasing, and with
economical and good management the Nary
land Central can be put upon paying footing
Captain Bans is the President and general man
ager fthe Annapolis and Elkridge Railroad
which is to be offered for sale in October. His
efficiency in the management ofthat company led
the Maryland Central directors to select him TO
take charge Of the operations OF their railroad
The employees of the Maryland Central have
been paid arrearages of wages TO July l.
The board of directors, as now constituted, ia
composed chiefly of bondholders, and although
there is not the slightest prospect that the sub
scribers to the original stock will ever receive,
directly, cent of interest on their investments
or any portion of this principal, they will feel
satisfied if new management gives them good,
safe road We have no doubt this will be done,
and in the effort to do it they will receive the
support and encouragement of every true friend
of the Maryland Central. .I.lIH .417

The Prohibition Ticket.

The prohibition convention at Pittsburg
on the gath of July, completed its work by
the nomination of Gov. John p st. John, of
Kansas, for President, and VIM. Daniel of
Maryland, for Vice President.
The platform criticises both political par
ties, and favors woman suffrage and consti-
tutional amendments to secure prohibition
of the liquor traffic.
John st. John was elected Governor of
Kansas in 1878, on prohibition PLATFORM
and again in 1880, but was defeated for re-
election in 1882, by j. W. Click He is so
years old, a man of imposing personal pres
ence, strong convictions and original views,
and fluent, graphic speaker.
Mr.. VIM. Daniel is a native of Somerset
county, Md, and is So years of age He was
strong Union man and was II member of
the Constitutional Convention of 1868. He
has been President Of the State Temperance
Alliance since its organization ...
Mr.. Mosher made the convention lively by
suggesting vote of thanks to the general
government for its interest in the conven-
ton. Two officials of the government, he
said, had been there and telegraphed back to
Washington that the convention could not
be bought at any price and that the men,
beers could not be hired to 20 home. The
officials referred to were Hon. WV. Dudley,
Commissioner of Pensions, and Hon. Hiram
Price, Commissioner of Indian Affairs. A
sarcastic resolution in accordance with Mr..
Mosher's suggestion, was offered. 1t re-
cites that Dudley and Price ''have even vio-
lated civil service reform and used public
time to come to Pittsburg to urge advice
upon members of the convention"
The Republican press has been greatly ex.
ercised over the convention. The fact is recog-
nized that the bulk of the vote the ticket will
receive will come from the Republican ranks.
The Baltimore Herald, Republican, de-
clares the nomination of Prohibition ticket
as foolish thing and crticises the Vice
Presidential candidate, Mr. Daniel, with
much severity. 1t warns Republicans not
to respond to Mr.. Daniels appeals for con-
tributions to the Prohibition campaign
