When Umpire Cleveland called the game
on account Of darkness at the end Of the
tenth inning of the Marines and St.
Dominic's game yesterday, the score was
ii 10 H. The contest was an interesting
one throughout, despite the fact that the
teams batted for a total of twenty-nina-
hits, fifteen being made off the st.
Dominic's pitcher, and fourteen Off the
delivery of La Faivre, Of the Marines.
ST. Dominics played a remarkably uphill
game, tieing the score when it seemed
hopelessly beaten. Pease led at the stick
for the Southwesters. and Laile wanoped
the sphere hard for the Marines. Score:

The fisherman's paradise In the Unit

Biscayne bay, but anglers who have
found their way to the southernmost

Watering regularity. and some of them

that no such angling sport can be

many fish as In the waters which lap
the shores of the various keys which
dot the bay and the gulf stream. There
are over 600 kinds of fish between
Miami and Key West, and $50 of these
are known as game fish. One of the
fasclnations Of the gamy tarpon Is
that he is mysterious. He comes In
schools, whence no one seems to know.
He is sighted sometimes as early as

Western Maryland Railroad Is Unable

Baltimore, March 6-AAfter the close
OF court Thursday a bill was filed In

Bowling Green Trust Co. of New York
asking the appointment of receivers
for the Western Maryland railroad
Judge Morris appointed President Ben.
iamin f. Bush, the railroad having filed
an answer admitting the allegations in

Bowling Green Trust Co. Is that the
Western Maryland will be unable to

ing to 81 1,259.000.
Mr.. Bush Succcnded Winslow s.
Pierce as president of the road about
Z year ago. The proceedings came as
I surprise. not the slightest intima
ton that they would be taken having
reached financial or legal circles dur.
ing the day
The Western Maryland was pur.
,hased IN 1902 by what was known as
The Fuller syndicate, acting for the
Gould interest, the price paid being
SS,000,000. At that time the road, was
indebted to Baltimore city on account
Of mortgages and accrued interest to
he extent of $l2.000,000
At the time of its purchase the road
ran from Baltimore to Cherry Run,
shout GO miles from Cumberland. At
Cherry Run It connected with the Bal.
timore & Ohio railroad. Since that
time the Western Maryland has been
extended to Cumberland to connect al
that point with the West Virginia Cen.
tral railroad, previously acquired by
the Gould interests, thus tapping very
rich coal territory.
