Dlscredit Murder Theory.

The report from Washington
to the effect that the death of
Mrs. Sarah f. Yingling, who was
found dead at her home near
Della, Frederick County, Sunday
last, was due to foul play, is not
credited by the Frederick County
authorities.
DR.. Routzahn, of BuckeystOwn,
who examined the remains of the
dead woman, stated that in his
opinion she had died from nat
ural causes. When DR.. Rout-
zahn examined the body decom
position had set in, but he found
no indication of foul play. 1t is
possible that Mrs. Yingling's
death was due to poisoning, but,
if that was the case, DR.. Rout.
zahn is of the opinion that the
poison must have been self-in-
tlicted.

Anders Mileage Book Test
Case Removed to the Cir.
cult Court

Messrs. Urner Il Urner, counsel
for the Northern Central Railway
Company, filed petition in the
Circuit Court for Frederick
County Tuesday morning for a
writ of certiorari, to be issued to
John Francis Smith, Justice of
the Peace, before whom the suit
of Aaron II. Anders against that
company for damages is now
pending, to bring the proceed
ings Of the suit into the Circuit
Court. The petition alleges that
the Act of the Assembly under
which the suit was brought was
unconstitutional and void. The
writ was ordered by the court to
be issued, returnable forthwith.
The order of the court disposes
of the suit before Justice Smith,
where it was first taken, and
brings it under the jurisdiction
of the Circuit Court. Had the
case remained with Justi e
Smith and Mr.. Anders gotten
judgment the railroad company
could have, on an appeal, taken
the suit to the Circuit Court.
where it would have been finally
settled. The writ of certiorari,
however, transfers all the pro-
ceedings to the Circuit Court,
where an appear to the Court of
Appeals may be finally resorted
to.
The case in question is the suit
for $50 damages instituted by
Mr.. Anders against the railroad
company for refusing to sell him
a 1,000-mile ticket book under
the provisions of an act of the
last Legislature. Mr.. Anders
originated and introduced the
measure and has undertaken TO
make test case of it. The course
pursued by the railroad company
Tuesday morning indicates that
the suit may eventually be car
ried to the highest court in the
State.

MIR. James Il. Ingram, Jr., the
leading spirit in the project, says
that his plans are being rapidly
completed, but are not yet in
shape for such announcement as
will assure their success. Some
preliminaries are yet to be ar.
ranged, but of the future of these
Mr.. Ingram seems to be reason. .
ably satisfied.
The company has all the legis.
lation for going ahead with the
work Arrangements have been
made for the underwriting of
$40, 900, 900 of per cent. first
mortgage bonds, and a contract
has been let for building part Of
the road to Westinghouse, Church

than likely that the section be.
tween Frederick and Baltimore
will be completed first.
The road as projected and sur
veyed is IS miles long, from Bal
timore to Hagerstown. 1t is in
tended to serve a thickly settled
territory. The company now

This will be part of the through

COUNTY PUTS HEAVIER
ASSESSMENT ON RAIL
ROADS
pennsylvania and Baltimore
and Ohio to Pay More on
Their Trackage in the
County-Attorneys file Pro
test.

The Frederick County Com.
mlssloners last Monday afternoon
decided to raise the assessment
OF trackage property of the Met
ropolltan Branch owned by the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company in Frederick County
from 81, 800 valuation a mile to
$4,000 Il mile. The commits.
slOherS also decided that the AID.
amStown "cut off, a branch line
OF little more than SIX miles.
running from AdamstOwn at a
point where 1t enters the Metro.
polltan Branch, near Washington
junction, was liable to taxation,
and assessed that also at the rate
OF 10000 a mile, adding in all
about 49,, 600 to the taxable
basis OF the county.
Mr.. James A. Q. Bond, counsel
for the railroad company, made
an argument against increasing
the assessment. He said that
the pre- ent assessment of $1,000
mile was the same as in Car
roll County. He also said that
the company'S track in Baltimore
County was assessed at S25. 1000
mile and in other counties at
about $40, 200 a mile.
Judge Bond contended that the
AdamstOwu cutoff was part
OF the main line of the company
and under its charter was not
subject TO taxation. He con
cluded by intimating that if the
cut off was assessed, the matter
would be taken to court for final
settlement. After hearing his
argument the commissioners de-
clded as above stated.
The Pennsylvania Railroad
Company was given q hearing
Tuesday before the County Com
misSiOners to show cause why the
company's property in this
county, consisting of 164 miles
Of railroad should not be assessed
for more than the present rate of
So, 100 a mile. The company nat,
urally opposed a higher assess
ment but were willing to pay
81, 100 a mile. The commissioner
were of the opinion that 30, 600 a
mile was reasonable and fixed
the assessment at that amount.
