OF the state Of Maryland decided that such
bonds had legal status there would be no
doubt as to their issuance.
Mr.. John p. Poe, Of Baltimore, said that
there was no doubt at all as to the sympathy
OF the board Of public works. 1t authorized
the issuing Of such bonds a week ago. The
second proposition was, he thought, unneces-
sary until the canal company had failed to do
anything. The adoption Of the second resolu-
ton would help to defeat the first
THE BOND ISSUING PLAN APPROVED.
Mr.. Stake then withdrew the alternative
proposition, the resolution was adopted, and the
meeting adjourned.
The Georgetown Level to be Repaired
at Once.
The millers and the canal officers have come
to satisfactory conclusion 90 far as the repair
ing Of the Georgetown level is concerned.
After the close of the public meeting Messrs
F. L. Moore, Robert Tenney, A. B. Cropley, and
Mr.. Burr conferred with the canal management
at the company's Office and there President
Gambrill was empowered to 2oahead as rapidly
rs possible with the work of restoration. The
only thing that remains to be set
tied is whether the contract shall
be made with Becker Il Blundson, who offer
to do the work for S13,750, or whether the
millers will not take the contract and do the
repairing themselves. Some of them are of
opinion that the job can be made
more satisfactory and more profitable
by doing it themselves. The agreement as at
present constituted calls for the restoration of
the canal to a navigable and safe condition,
but doesntrequire the making of numerous and
expensive repairs, which would have to be
made if boats were to be run through.
The parties of the first and second parts will
meet at the canal company's Office tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clock to sign the necessary
papers. The work of repairing will then COM
mence.

THE ALIEN CONTRACT LAW.
Mr.. Morris on the Proposed Imports.
ton OF Catholic University Lecturers.

The decision Of the Attorney General refus-
ing TO determine at present whether the leo
turers proposed TO be brought 70 this country
by the trustees Of the new Catholic university
came within the scope of the alien contract
law, leaves the matter in a position not de-
sired by the university officials. Mr. Martin
+. Morris, the counsel in the case, said to-day
that he did not believe that the bringing OF
these men to this country was q violation OF
the law, but in order that there might be no
question raised they had asked the opinion Of
the law officials of the government He re-
GREETED that a decision was not given. as the
absence of II seemed 20 place the university
authorities in the position Of violating the
law, when such was not their intention, and
furthermore they were of-the opinion that the
action proposed would not be a violation Of
the law. These men. he said, were lecturers,
ana as such were expressly excepted by tie
law. Mr.. Morris said that the only thing 70 do
was to have the lecturers come over 10 this
country. He did not believe that the Law
would be construed so as TO exclude them
