An amendment to the charter of
the New York, Philadelphia & Norfolk
Railroad has been issued by the State
Corporation Commission, increasing the
capital stock from 81, 500, 900 to SO, $50,
600. The new stock is to be given TO
the shareholders of the company as a
stock dividend. The argument is that
for years much of the earnings have
been devoted to expenditures for real
estate, for improvements and for adj
ditions to motive power and rolling
stock. This money, it is said. has ex-
ceeded 81, $50. 200.

came to Snow Hill on the steamer Mary
Saturday. twas Mr.. Palmer's first trip
on the Pocomoke River, and he was
much surprised to view tropical scenery
so near his home. Mr.. Eckels endeavors
to get in at least one trip from Balti-
more to Snow Hill on the Maryland

immensely. When he arrives in Snow
Hill he finds host of old friends and
admirers, who are glad to shake his hand
and exchange "reminiscences with him.
We reckon Mr.. Palmer will come again
