gested as follows
The route as mapped out for the proposed
extension to Baltimore would commence on
the bank Of the canal below Point of Rocks,
cross the Metropolitan Branch of the Bal

the rich and fertile Sandy Spring neighbor-
hood of Montgomery, down through How
ard county, crossing the Patapsco river at
Elllcott City, and thence to BALTIMORE
Terminal facilities in Baltimore have not
yet been determined upon, but il was stated
that either shore of the Spring Gardens
would be eligible sites for the piers needed
in coal traffic. Mr. Cotton has leave to in
troduce bill in the House amending the
charter OF the Cumberland and Washing
ton Road and this amendment is supposed
TO provide for the proposed Baltimore ex
tension OF the road.
The statement was given ont that this

o. cannot meet the demands of the traffic.
He is very positive that the G. d o. canal
could not transport the coal because it has
not boats enough and no new ones are be-
ing built. He would not give all of his

In Glasgow is the Sanitary WASH

authorities found it necessary to super

and small temporary wash-house was
opened. with few tubs for the cleans
ing Of apparel, ETC.. removed from in
fected houses. For time after the
acquisition Of Belvidere a part Of the
