REPORT NOT FULL ENOUGH
B. & 0. Reorganization Committee
Wants Still Further Investigations
Anxious to Know What Use Has
Been Made of Certain Money
and Who Profited.

Baltimore, Dec. 5.-Thc Baltimore re-
organization committee of the Baltimore
and ohio Railroad Company is not satisfied
with the report of Stephen W. Little, on
the financial condition of the property be-
tween the dates of September 80, 1883,
and November 80, 1895, the period OF the
Mayer management, and Will probably
make an independent examination oil the
books and accounts Of the corporation on
lines entirely different from those tol-
lowed by Mr.. Little in his investigation for
the New York reorganization committee.
The report that has been issued does not
tell how various sums were used. why
certain unproiitable lines We're acquired,
of their absorption by the BALTIMORE and
Ohio, whether or not the considerations
Were excessive and the extent OF the
commissions paid to the parties who
negotiated the deals.
ne comInitiee deems it essential TO a
successful plan of reorganization to know
these facts. and TO ascertain further who
were Mr.. Mayors advisors and whether
or not they pronted directly or Indirectly
through the sale of the Improbable prop
critics to the Baltimore and Ohio.
The feature OF Mr.. Littlc's report that
has attracted most attention is that which
deals with the floating debt of the corpora
ton This was stated in the annual re-
ports to be four million dollars but Mr.
Little found ii to be over sixteen million
dollars. The Baltimore committee will
have a meeting next week and decide
upon what action. if any, is to be taken.

Georgetown Freshmen Defeated il
Well Contested Game.

Well Contested Game.
A large and enthusiastic crowd witnessed
the football game yesterday afternon on
Georgetown Field between class teams of
'99 and 1900.
The weather was just right for the
players, while the crisp chilliness of the
atmosphere kept the spectators attention
divided between their efforts to keep warm
and atching the pla yerst tumble around the
muddy field.
The game was hotly contested from the
first and it was soon seen that the teams
were very evenly matched. In the first
half neither side scored, and play was
pretty evenly divided in the territory Of
either team. Time was called with ball
exactly in the center of the field.
In the second half the sOphomores COM
menced a series of assaults on 1900's
tackles. and continued gains at these points
by Cullen and Walsh carried the ball to the
twenty-yard line, where it was lost ON
downs.
Good runs by Mulligan and Fleming
for 800 carried the ball back to the center
of the field, where Fleming kicked.
Cullen and Walsh by strong line plunges
brought the pigskin to lsoO's five-yard
line. The freshmen made a gallant defense,
but their cagerness cost them the penalty
of two yards for off side play. Then F.
Cullen was showed over the line for the
first and only touchdown OF the game, but
Cullen's try for goal was failure.
With two minutes left to play after
the kickoff the freshmen made the most
desperate effort to score but the sopho
mores defensive work was too much fol
them and the game closed with the bal
in the center of the field. Final score
was sophomores 4, freshmen o. But two
more games of the series remain to bt
played. The next game will come of
Wednesday, when '9S will meet 1900.
