THE CANAL BILLS KILLED.
Gov. Browns Reasons for withhold
Ing His Signature.


Governor Brown of Maryland has conclud-
ed to withhold his signature from the two
car al bills passed by the Maryland general
assembly. He explains his action in the
following official statement:
THE canal bills, as drawn, do not meet
the object desired. 1 shall. in the near fu-
ture, arrange for the auditing of these judg-
ments and accounts so as to present them
to the next general assembly in such q
fern as to enable that body to deal with
the question accurately and definitely with
out embarrassing the states interest or it's
action 50 far as the future OF the canal is
concerned. This delay does not in the lea ST
impair any interest in these unsettled ac-
counts, as under the present legal restric-
items surrounding the canal, no settlement
is likely to be reached before the fall of
1895. Certainly, 1t cannot be the desire of
any one of the claimants to embarrasS the
state, or to throw obstacles in the way of a
settlement in some form by which the state
could receive sufficient moneyed considera-
ton to enable 1t to at least meet the out
standing obligations of the canal. am sure
when the opinion of the attorney general is
carefully examined, and due considera ton
given to the arguments offered, that ali
parties interested in the result aimed at by
the bills referred to will willingly and cheer
fully concede that their interests are much
more likely to be subserved by a deliberate
and careful investigation into the accuracy
or each and all of these accounts than by
any measure which undertakes to deal with
an unknown quantity. These bills seem
also to be in conflict with the spirit, if not
the letter, of the constitution (section 81
article 81.
After giving the most careful considera-
ton to the proposed measures. and with all
the sympathy possible for the claimants, and
bearing IN mind the reSpon Sibility that
would. in my judgment, assume, of embar-
r. ssing the state in it's final settlement or
disposition of this property, am compelled
10 withhold my signature, with the hope
mat the question can be submitted to the
next general assembly in such form as Will
enable 1t to act promptly and more salts
factorily to all interests involved"

A Stubborn Fire

Quite a serious fire took place at 1920
O'Clock last evening at 301 NJ street south
west. caused by the explosion of a coal oil
lamp. The building. owned by Miss Car
penter. was occupied by Fred Faber as a
dry goods store, and he had just closed up
for the day and was endeavoring to ex-
tnguish the lamp, when the explosion took
place. The burning fluid badly injured his
hands, but notwithstanding the pain he
was in he attempted to quench the fire.
The burning fluid had. however, spread,
his efforts were turned to his family up-
stairs, who he hastily got out. Officers
Murphy and Hayden turned In the alarm,
and quick response of the fire depart
ment was made. 1t proved to be a stub
born fire, a fight of two hours being re-
quired to suppress 1t. The damage to the
building was about $500, and Mr. Faber
loses his stock and furniture aggregating
about $500, on which he had no insur-
ance.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
In the criticisms of the pictures exhibited
at the Cosmos in an article by J. a. Trues-
DELL printed in Saturdays Star, I find two
OF mine mentioned and the writer through
ignorance, unjustly criticiseS the drawing
and perspective of one of them. All the
writer Will have to do to see his error will
be to study drawing and perspective as
have for the last forty years, and in the
best schools Of Europe and America.
