PENNSY STIRS
QUEEN ANNE
Merchants and Shippers Are
Divided on the Proposed
CentreViIIe Connection
TRADE board WILL
CONSIDER THE SUBJECT

CENTREVILLE, Md, Jan. 9.-Mer-
chants of Cenreville and shippers in
the northern and southern sections
of Queen Anne's county are at logger
heads over the advantages to be
gained or lost through the plan COLI
templated by the Pennsylvania Rail-
road of making a connection at this
point between the Philadelphia, Bal
timore and Washington and the Mary
land, Delaware and Virginia Railroads
both of which now have termini at
Centreyille.
The merchants as body are
against the proposed connection,
claiming that it would be detrimental
to the shopping business of the town.
while the county shippers argue H.
favor of it on the ground that it would
give through service and rates to
Philadelphia and New York for grain
oysters, farm and bay produce. The
merchants claim tnat the change
would make Centreville a way-station
where she is now a terminal.
AS the contemplated change has oc-
cupied the attention of the Public
Service Commission, that body is max
ing inquiries throughout this section,
while the Pennsylvania Railroad is
continuing to make surveys witt a
view to determining upon a practical
means of connection.
The question has become of such
moment that it will be the first prob
lem Of the Centreville Board Of Trade.
which was organized last Wednesday.
and will hold its first quarterly meet
ing tonight
By means Of the proposed connec-
ton of the two railroads the people
In the vicinity Of Queenstown and
Kent Island would be enabled to ship
oysters, fish, crabs, waterfowl, poul-
try Of all kinds and country produce
to Philadelphia and New York, where.
it is claimed they get much better
prices. Grain buyers along the line
of the Maryland, Delaware and Vir-
ginia road are also anxious for the
change, claiming that under present
conditions they are unable to shir
grain to Philadelphia and other
northern points, via Greenwood. as
they cannot secure a through rate
from the Pennsylvania Railroad. This
point is emphasized in contradiction
Of assertion that the Pennsylvania
Company is discriminating against
Baltimore, fore under existing condi-
tions the grain buyers on the Mary
land Delaware and Virginia line are
compelled TO ship to Baltimore. where.
they state, the grading and prices are
much lower than those of Philadel-
phia Thus would the lower part of
the county gain by connection.
The advantage gained by the upper
part of the county would be that of be-
ing able to go to Baltimore and buy.
and when they are able to do this
It is contended Centreville will lose
trade unless the merchants here meet
city prices.

Appetite Not a Necessity.

DIR. John r. Murlin of New York, as
sistant professor of physiology at the
Cornell university medical college. in
an article in the October number Of
the Journal of the Outdoor Life, com
pares the food we eat to the fuel used
in furnishing steam and power for an
engine. In selecting our food he says
that we should eat enough to furnish
energy for the days work, but that
much more than this is not needed
He holds that the appetite is not ne
cessity for good digestion. There is
no fallacy Of nutrition" he says,
greater than that which supposes
that food cannot be digested and uti
liked without appetite" Most of the
food we eat, fully four-ffths. goes to
supply energy for our everyday tasks
while less than one-fifth goes to sup
ply building material.
