Suit Against Canal.

Charles Gring has filed bill in
equity in the United States Circuit
Court at Wilmington, Del, against
the Chesapeake and Delaware
Canal Company asking that a re-
straining order be issued prevent
ing the Canal Company charging
him excessive tolls and otherwise
discriminating against him and
also preventing the company from
unnecessarily delaying vessels own
ed by him or in his charge. 1t is
also expected that he will later ask
that the company be required to
keep the canal open on Sundays
for the accommodation of traffic.
He cites numerous instances where
his boats were unnecessarily delay
ed by the company and claims that
he has been charged higher rates
than other parties for the same SER
vice, the company compelling him
to pay the over charges by de.
olaring that it would not admit
the boats in his charge to the
canal until the bills were paid.

History Repeats Itself.

A subscriber has sent us a copy
of the Rising Sun Journal dated
June II, 1SS2-published 20 years
ago. Among the locals was the
following item
ga. L. Duyckinck & Co. are
about to make extensive improve
ments at their warehouse. They
intend to enlarge the building and
put in side track running over
their coal yard so the coal can be
dumped into bins. The trestle-
work will be about eleven feet high.
Their business, they inform us, is
better this spring than ever before. {"
The same item, with a slight
change, will apply to present con.
ditions. Messrs. Duyckinck & Co.
have just completed another siding
$50 feet long and extended their
old siding 200 feet, making 1900
feet of sidetrack, with a capacity of
20 cars, now at their disposal.
They will also soon commence the
erection of another hay house
33x97 #. to accommodate their in
creasing business.

Oxford's Small Pox Scare.

Oxford was thrown into excite
ment Monday evening when it was
reported that Marion Holton, South
street, had the small pox. In two
hours from the time of diagnosis he
was in a closed cab and taken to
the County Home Pest House by
Vernon Ringler and DIR. @. L.
Barry. Holton had been in Phila.,
and it is supposed that he contract
ed the disease there.
The Board of Health meet imme-
diately in council rooms and took
prompt measures to prevent the
spread of the disease. The house
was placed under quarantine and a
Waterman placed in charge. All
manner of rumors were circulated
but when searched are found
groundless. No alarm is felt and
but little fear is expressed in the
matter.-Oxford Times.

Barge Damaged By Fire.

The steam barge Charles Thomp-
son, Captain Perkins, en- route from
Baltimore to New York via the
Chesapeake and Delaware canal,
was badly damaged by fire at an
early hour Monday morning while
lying at Chesapeake City. The
fire originated in the engine room
by the EXPOSITION of an oil lamp
in the hand of the engineer, who
was severely burned. The stern of
the boat, together with the pilot
house and engine, was destroyed,
and but for the prompt arrival of
the tugs Startle and Roman,
which played several streams of
water on the burning boat, the
destruction of the Thompson would
have been complete. The loss is
estimated at $500. There was no
cargo aboard at the time of the fire.
