CANAL WILL NOT BE SOLD.
Judge Stake Extends Time of It's
Operation Five Years.

Judge Stake filed an opinion in court at
Hagerstown yesterday granting the petit
ton Of the surviving trustees for the 1874
bondholders of the Chesapeake and Ohio
canal for an extension of time-to May /,
19OG-for the operation Of the canal. Judge
Stake extends the time to January j, 1906
instead of May l, 1906 He holds that so
long as the canal can be operated to any
advantage to the bondholders Of 1874 they
are entitled to get that advantage, and de-
clares the insistence by the state of a sale
of the canal and it's destruction as a water
way is not consistent either with it's pro-
visions in the canal company's charter or
with it's solemn contract with the bond
holders.
The court did not pass upon the contract
for the sale of certain lands and riparian
rights along the canal at Great Falls to the
Great Falls Power Company for SIS 900.
J. F. Mclaughlin, on the part of a syndi-
cate, offered the canal trustees for the
same lands and rights 100000, but the Of
fer was not accepted.
1t is understood that the state will ap-
peal from the decision.
