against the granting OF a Rolle gr0Squi

upon the owners of boats condemned for
illegal dredging, which fines are pay
able 10 the County Commissioners of
Anne Arundel county under the proyi-
sions of the Act of 1890. They respect
fully show that great expense has bean
incurred by theCounty in the prosecu-
ton of these cases in the Circuit Court
of Anne Arundel County and in Balti-
more city, and the remission Of these
fines or grant of a mol pros. of said
cases would be great injustice TO the
taxpayers of this County. The Coun-
sellor of the Board was directed to pre-
sent copy of the order and protest un-
der the seal of the County to the Cover
nor.

of $500 for information leading to the
