I think 1t is now generally conceded

Commission is sufficiently great to re-

The history of the operation of the

and instructive. Soon after the incep-
ton of the statute the railroads began
To treat the Interstate Commerce Com

system OF unlawful rebates was very

Old cupola On New Depot.

The new modern freight house of the
B. & o. R. R. in Frederick, Md, will be
topped off with relic of the oldest depot
in the world, preserving remembrance
of Frederick's historic railroad structure.
One of the cupolas, which for years gave
the completed appearance to the old
depot, has been placed on top of the new
building and the old bell hung in its posi-
ton in the cupola.
1t was thought at first that the railroad
would keep these relics in Baltimore, but
the officials decided to allow the old
cupola to remain in Frederick to adorn
the new depot and serve to recall the
early days of the B. & O.'s activity. By
ringing the bell the railroad years back
announced the arrival and departure of
trains.
When the cupola was removed from the
old depot, some relics were found, which
bore the date of 1892 and 1883.
