BALTIMORE, March 6.-No changes
are anticipated in the operation of the
Western Maryland railroad, which was
last night placed il. the hands of B. F.
Bush president of the road, as re-
ceiyer. He will continue to manage
the company under the direction of the
court.
The force now in charge of the de-
partments will be maintained so as II
give the receiver the best effects OF
their experience, both in railroad opera
ton and in the conduct of the coal
mining projects which are an important
factor in the Western Maryland de-
velopment.
This road includes the West Vir-
ginia Central & Pittsburg properties,
along which are situated the coal lands
it owns.
While it has been known to insiders"
that the corporation was running be-
hind financially, the receivership came
sooner than most of those familiar with
the company anticipated and occa-
stoned great surprise generally.
Besides the acknowledged Inability
of the road to meet the semi-annual IN
terest on the first mortgage bonds due
April l. which was the immediate cause
of the court proceedings, 1T was furtner
announced that the company is in
debted for materials and supplies to an
amount in excess of 100000 and that

ment of their claims, threatening court
action to enforce their demands

The idea that he had been drinking
is laughed at, for it is said that no man
in the least under the influence of liq-
uor could have reached the point from
which he fell. He must have been
reckless indeed to have attempted the
feat which he did. and it was that reek-
Iessness which cost him his life.
