Senate Committee on Corporations and
haa been materially amended. bat as the

not to be divuiged for day or two. Mr..

them they are perfectly satisfactory

Baltimore, Choptank and Atlantic rail
wey, appeared before the eommittee
yesterday afternoon in oppoaition TO the
bill The corporation which he repre-
sented Is purely a Maryland concern
having route from Claybourne, il
Talbot county, to Ocean City. He made
a speech in which he said that iii hi
opinion the road would never be built
but when the names of the men who weri
back Of it were shown him. and th
amendments explained be expressed him
self as perfectly satisfied that it shoult
be granted He follow up the with
drawal Of HIS objections By urging thl
committee not to load d ,Wn tie charte
with amendments providing for overhead
bridges
Mr.. Brown ard Mr Lewis, Of Denton
made short speeches Ia behalf Of th
charter, and were seconded BY MI

perfectly satisfied that Delaware interest
should be protected, and that they woul
be satiafld with any reasonable amend

selves favorably.
