THE JURY MAKES BIG AWARD
In Condemnation of The Baltimore

Railroad Property.
COUNSEL THINK AMOUNT is
EXTRAVAGANT.
The Curves At Wellham's Will

ened At Present.

The jury of condemnation which
has been holding sessions at Glen
Burnie, this county for the last two
days, considering the condemnation of
certain property on the Baltimore
and Annapolis Short Line Railroad,
near Wellham's Station, (which the
railroad company wishes TO acquire as
right of way for the purpose of the
Strengthening of its tracks at that
point, has adjourned. Although the
jury decided to make awards as the
result of the condemnation of said
property, the amounts specified which
the railroad company should pay for
the land desired, are so high, that il
is not thought that the railroad COM
pany will make the purchase and con-
templated improvements.
For some time the Short Line has
been negotiating for the purchase of
the piece of property owned by Messrs.
Basil 5. Cromwell and Herbert Pun
phrey. At present the tracks pass adj

wishes to purchase in order TO straight.

while the owners of the land engaged

p. Bannon as their attorneys.
At the conclusion of its inyestiga-
tiOns into the matter of Condemna-
tion, the jury decided to fix the award
for the Cromwell land at 81, 500 and
in the case of Pumphrey, 50. 800. The
counsel for the railroad think that the
awards are so extravagant that there
is little chance of the deal being made,
and the contemplated improvement
being made at this time. at least The
award is at the rate of $500 per acre

Will Be Asked To Row at Pough-
keepSie.

a formal invitation to row at PougE-
keepsie is to be sent to the Naval
Academy by the Intercollegiate Row
ing Association, at present composed OF
Columbia, Cornell and the University
of Pennsylvania. The other three col
leges whose crews.row on the Hudson
are there only by invitation of these
charter members of the association.
A naval official is quoted as saying ::
"The idea of letting the middies
race at Poughkeepsie at first did not
appear to have much chance of ever
passing beyond the stage of talk, for
the simple reason that it was consider
ed an unwise thing for the midship-
men TO compete away from home
against institutions other than the
Military Academy at West Point.
"There is no particular rivalry with
any other school or college. but the
very fact that Annapolis had rowing
races this year with Yale, Columbia.
Georgetown and Pennsylvania makes
il look better for race outside with
the other college crews"
