WITHOUT AUTHORITY.
Local Courts, It is Held, Have No
Jurisdiction in Case.


In connection with the proceedings to
have the Laurel Clay Products Company
ad1udged bankrupt, Referee In Bank
ruptcy Andrew 7. Bradley has filed his
report or findings OF fact. He finds that
the company was fnsolvent within the
meaning of section /, paragraph Is. OF the
bankruptcy act
AS to the domicile or principal place Of
business. Mr.. Bradley finds that neither
were within the District of Columbia for
period of six months preceding the peti-
ton. The domicile of the company was
stated to be in the state of New York and
Montgomery county. Md
The claims of three of the four petit
tioning creditors are held to be not prov
able within the meaning of section Job OF
the act and, the report states. the other
single provable claim Is insufficient to sup
port the petition.
The appointment of a receiver by the
act of bankruptcy on the part Of the cor
Maryland court, which 1t relied an
poration, which consented to the appoint
constitute such an act OF bankruptcy as the
law contemplates. Even II the answer filed
by the company in the Maryland proceed
tngs, the report states, be construed to be
an acknowledgment of Its insolvency, such
an admission in the absence Of an ex-
pressed willingness to be adjudged bank
rupt on that ground would be insufficient
to justify this court in adjudicating the
company bankrupt
The referee in conclusion holds that the
District courts are without authority to de-
clare the company bankrupt.

Chesapeake Beach.

The new schedules now operated over the
Chesapeake Beach railway have added
greatly to the attractiveness. of Chesapeake
Beach as a resort for tired Washfngtonians
who seek relief from the heat and dust of
the city. The trains make the trip In an
hour and a ride OF that Length carries the
fiat-dweiler to a region of cool sea breezes
and delightful sea baths. The beach Is
thronged these afternoons with bathers.
Almost daily there is an excursion of con-
siderable magnitude to the resort, given
under the auspices of some local fraternal
or benevolent organization but In addition
to these there are numberless family picnic
parties. The long pier that extends out
into the bay is lined with enthusiastic
crabbers of all ages, and their success is In
variable, as the big baskets and bulging
bags that are brought to the city each
evening abundantly testify, On smaller
scale and at correspondingly small trouble
and expense, the attractions of Atlantic
City are duplicated. within easy reach OF
Washington.

LAYING ANOTHER TRACK.
Work Begun by Great Falls and Old
Dominion Railway.

The work OF double-tracking the Great
Falls and Old Dominion railway was begun
yesterday by large force of workmen
Four miles OF the present single track will
by September ! next. be paralleled and
the balance will be completed by next
spring. Owing to the great demand at
present for steel rails in all parts of he
world there is difficulty in obtaining them
at this season upon short notice and FOR
that reason the company feels gratified in
being able to secure as much as four miles.
The grade Of the line will be prepared for
the fourteen miles distance to the falls,
and the balance of the rails necessary will
be delivered to the company during the
winter. The double-tracking of four miles
will, facilitate traffic to the extent OF per-
uniting the addition of two more cars 10
