fFrom Maryland Kepublicon)
The Chesapeake and Ohio Canai which
has figured so largely in Maryland histo-
~ and in which the State has spent such
large sums Of money is again matter
OF discussion,
The question now Is, Shall the Board
~ pnblIc Works sell the States interest
Ia the Canal? The board advertised the
states interest for sale and received two
bids. one from B. & o, sources and the
other from Western Maryland. The b.
so bid was $151, 900, the Western
MARYLAND $155. 900. In view OF the
millions which the State has put into
this waterway, both bids seemed insig-
milf ant and their closeness, from sup
posedly rival sources, seemed suspicious
some people, and we were OF the num-
Ter said that il the canal was worth
only St55 900 now the State might as
we'll keep its interests and wait Tor
something TO turn up. II the whole
sl55 600 should be lost by holding on
the state would not be much hurt ana
something in these days oirapid change
might happen to make the States claim
yery valuable. II Mr.. Vandiver be right
in bis contention OF last Thursday, then
cartainly no sale should be made. Mr..
yandiver has found that the charter oil
the canal exempts it from all taxation.
II this exemption should follow. and 1t
is likely it would, the canal into any
hands it may go, then the State would
have another b. Il D. on its hands 'he
purchaser could erect all sorts OF costly
improvements aud escape all taxation.
IL certainly would seem that in view OF
this phase OF the question and the small
sum offered the Board OF Public Works
should go slow in this matter.

W4R VIEWS OF EXPERTS.
Looking for a Big Battle Near
Lao Yang.
LFI,oM THE TRIBUNE BUREAU


Washington. Aug lathe military experts
believe that the time IS ripe for big battle
near Liao-Yang The dispatches to-day indi-
cate that the Japanese ara within twenty miles
OF that place, the transfer Of which TO the Jap
anese would be an important step in the estab-
Hshment Of bases of regeneration for the in
vading forces. Service observers here doubt
that the Russians will stand their ground at
Liao-Yang- Their attitude viii evidently be
governed entirely by the extent of the Russian
army and its ability obstinately to resist the
japanese There is no difference Of expert view
in regard TO the Importance OF Liao-Yang
pecialy to the Japanese. who could make good
of II in their progress toward the north.
Some Of the officers think that resistance
will be made by the Russians south OF Mouk-
den. possibly short of Hardin. and others
believe the Russians will fall back without any
great obstruction to their pursuers. counting
the time when the Japanese resources will have
become exhausted, or at least sufficiently di-
minished to warrant Russian attack
The naval officers believe that the Russians
have been crippled on the sea. and it is coming
to be doubted whether they can recover in time
or in extent to make a formidable attack posi-
Bile This view is somewhat confirmed to-day by
the interview given out by the Russian Minis
ter whose announcement that his country will
fight until it regains lost ground also sus-
tainS a military impression which has prevailed
here. If the Russian ships continue their effort
to get away from Port Arthur. as is promised
by the Minister, that valuable information must
by this time be in the possession Of the officials
at Toxic, and the Japanese plans will take the
renewal OF that attempt into consideration. A
report received In Washington describes a sys-
TEN OF communication established by the Jap
anese. who find that soldiers in the field are not
careful about writing home while their relatives
and friends are anxious TO know OF their coudi-
ton, and are satisfied II they learn that the
soldier is well The soldier. therefore. has =

I inform you that am alive and in good
health l do not give you my address. because
1 do not know where shall be tomorrow. but
your letters will reach me II you reproduce ex-
actIy what is printed by the postal seal
The sender applies at the bottom OF the text a
wooden stamp possessed by nearly every jap
anese soldier. This arrangement keeps the SOL
der from writing OF things which need not be
told. II gives his people a chance TO know he Is
alive and well. and II enables those at home TO
