CHESAPEAKE & OHIO CANAL.
President Cambria Tells Of the SERIOUS
Condition of Its Affairs

President Stephen Gambril, of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Canal, has announced his
intention Of calling the directors together and
laying the true situation of the canals affairs
befnre them officially. IL they eau suggest
no remedy. as seems probable, they will
report their helpless condition to a general
meeting of the stockholders. The next step,
unless measures for relief can be found, will
be the appointment Of a receiver.
President Gambrill said in reference to the
crisis in the affairs Of the canal The water
way is practically useless 10 us now, owing to
the heavy damage from the recent food. We
have done all we could to put Il once more IN
working order, but our efforts have been
futile The $500, coo repair bonds which were
issued find no takers, owing to a general
feeling that they viii prove an unsafe invest
meut. We have advertised for proposals 10
make the repairs, offering to pay for then in
toll certificates Of twenty per cent, bat have
not had single bid. Five coupons Of the
bonds have matured without takers coming
forward, and under the stipglatiouS receiver
can be asked for when 0nly three have been
passed. There seems to be no prospect that
either the bonds viii be taken or any bidders
for the repairs viii come forward. II We
cannot settle our troubles by August !, shall
report 70 the directors, and they IN turu viii

Advance in the Prioe OF sugar

The high prices FOR sugar which have ruled
this year are expected 10 climb up even higher
when the active demand begins ia the fall.
There has been q slight reduction in brokers
figures for the raw and refined articles re
Gently, but another rise is anticipated when
the temporary glut of the market Is past.
Mr.. s. c. Hanson said, in reference 10 the
situation The trust in New York which
controls the sugar trade has been compelled
10 run up the prices on account Of short crops
in Cuba, an increase in consumption and q
reduction Of stock by dealers the world over.
The advance started in February last, and
kept up until prices to brokers averaged two
cents higher than the figures for last summer.
The slight temporary decline OF aquarteT of
cent on raw last week and on refined this,
will soon be made up, as the price cannot be
materially reduced until the next crop pats

Baltimore's .'Belt' is likely to prove quite
expensive. The "BeIt'' people expect much
from the city, and to meet their demands
would necessitate considerable increase of
taxation. Wha. Baltimore realizes from
having the BELT is nil, except the satisfac-
ton of appearing in the census tables as having
a little more population and wealth. The
city reached out too far. Its hands should only
have extended to the portions ofthe county that
were built up city fashion, like Canton and
the Northern section.

From the 4th Of March to July 10th the
Harrison Administration removed about 49,
OoO Democratic postmasters. For the same
time in Cleveland's term, only about 4,Ooc
changes we're made. Cleveland found every
Office. nearly, in Republican hands; Harrison
found not over two thirds of the Offices IN
Democratic hands. A great howl was set up
over the removals by the Cleveland Admins
tration, by the Civil Service Reformers' but
scarcely any surprise is expressed over the
course Of the Harrison Administration. The
reason may be found in the fact that the he-
publican party is known to be party Of
