NEW YORK, June 6.-The report of the civil

created quite ripple Of excitement at the GUS

Collector Erhardt said this morning that he
had not yet received the official report from

without first making an investigation himself.

The canal company has in its employ about
$50 employees, nearly all of them married men;
they will suffer more or less. The boat-owners
and the boatmen (there are 800 of the latter)
have no other canals in which to continue their
ayocations. Hunger will pinch many a one of
these and stony-hearted want will tug hard at
the skirts OF the boatmen S wives-mothers of a
thousand little ones who have heretofore had at
least enough to eat. The hands who have done
nothing but load up canal-boats ever since
they knew what q canal-boat looked like will be
Strengthened for while. From Cumber-
land to Georgetown there will be a
string Of poverty such as the region
has never known before. Many tramp
will date his experience on the road from the
great Potomac freshet of 1889, and the poor
houses will claim more victims before the SHOWS
OF next winter clear away than they have for
many years past. railroad may supersede
the canal, but
THESE PEOPLE MUST BE ASSISTED AT ONCE
They will starve before the right of way could
be transferred. The condition of things is
really serious, and we're it not that the Johns
town horror occupies SO much Of the attention
and the heart OF the public, something would
undoubtedly be done for the poor canal folks.
Views Of Ex-senator Camden.
Ex-senator Camden, Of West Virginia, is one
Of the directors of the West Virginia Central
railroad. Speaking with STAR reporter to-
day about the possibility Of the old canal bed
being secured by that road for the extension
of that line into Georgetown, he said that the
company were alive to the opportunity to extend
their road to Georgetown, and would doubtless
take the matter at once into serious considera-
ton. He thought there was necessity for the
extension He did not, however, think that
they would care to use the bed of the old canal.
The freshet, he said, showed IL not to be safe
from destruction from water. and he thought,
with the present cheapness Of railroad bridge
construction, IL would be better for
