Showing.-On Saturday last Troop A, Capt.
Joseph W. Shirley, had its annual inspection
and drill and the event proved most interest
ing and attractive one. The inspection was by
Lieut. Melvin w. Rowell. Fifth United States

complimented the men upon their showing
and especially upon their horses and horse

to the members and among them are some
very fine animals.
The troop assembled at the Confederate

school of the trooper, troop evolutions and ex-
tended order exercises, inspection of horses,
horse equipments, men, uniforms, arms and
ordnance equipment, troop headquarters and
storerooms.
The troop was then taken on a three-mile
march to Burnside, !" the farm of Mr.. Samuel
M. Shoemaker, in Green Spring Valley, where
the men went into camp in an open field for
days field exercises, which included the pitch
ing of tents cooking, the movement and care
of. military stores, etc. They were accom-
panied by Brig Gen. Lawrason Riggs, ,Adjt-
Gen. John S. Saunders and Col. Allen McLane.

assigned to the pitching of tents, cooking and
looking after the horses. At feed call each
Eed l.is horse, and at tho ti4aae til .
air was being filled with the aroma of the beef
steak, potatoes and coffee. At the call for

marched to the lawn in front of Mr. Shoe

Against the Turnpike Company the
Circuit Court for Baltimore city a few days ago
Judge Sharp delivered an opinion dismissing
the suit of the Baltimore and Frederick Turn.
pike Company for an injunction restraining
the United Railways and Electric Company
from running express cars over the turnpike
between Baltimore and Gainesville and Ellicott
City.
The decision of the case turned upon the
construction of contracts entered into between
the turnpike company and the former Baiti-
more and Gainesville Railway Company
There were three of these contracts. By the
last one, executed in 1889, the railway COM
pany was given the right to carry over the
turnpike such articles as are carried on other
suburban electric lines entering the city.
The turnpike company claimed that the con-
tract is being violated by the cars of Gathers
Express, which carry articles not contemplated
by the contract. Thereby, the turnpike COM
pany alleged, it is losing large amount in the
tolls formerly paid for the wagons carrying the
goods now transported in the cars.
Judge Sharp decided that the evidence did
not show that the contract has been violated.
The Court held that the cars may carry light
freight, but not heavy freight Light freight
needed by suburban residents and storekeepers
including farmers and cottagers' supplies, fur
niture, store goods, baggage, brick and lumber
in small lots. Heavy freight was construed to
mean carload lots or larger quantities of coal,
ore, hay, produce, grain, lumber, sand, gravel
and similar articles.
