The Western Maryland Railroad will
not have to do any new financing to pro
vide money for the necessary equipment
for the Pittsburg extension, now in
course of construction. The financial
condition of the company is in such
splendid shape that cash payments can
be made for any new cars and locomo-
tives, thus obviating the necessity for
issuing equipment trust certificates. 1t
is understood that the cost of the extern

Both Sides,

11Otn S1ucS.
The clash between Otto Hohing, citi-
zen, and Council over Mr.. Yungerman S
| incumbency of the offices of town
| councilman and town treasurer came to
| a seeming climax Friday evening of last
week when, III special meeting OF Coun-
| Gil, MIR. 1ungerman resigned the office
of treasurer, and Council elected Will
| liam r. Gunter citizen, to fill the
| vacancy.
The contentious of Mr.. Yungerman
and his friends are that, under the cur
rent Charter. fl years old, IA councilman
has always been chosen to fill the office
of treasurer, and that it is not an office
| of profit.
Under the circumstances, therefore,
he preferred yielding to the prosecution
| rather than put the town to an expense
| of 81 900 in defending his title, and so
| far as Outspoken opinions and sympa-
thies have been heard, his co-workers in
Council agree with him.
On the other hand, Otto Hohing, Citi-
zen. disclaiming personal feeling, at
tackS the inCumbenCy of two offices by
Mr.. Yungerman as unconstitutional, and
as citizen it is not only his right but
his duty to asSail this violation of it.
was first mooted last spring Mayor and
Councilmen were legally advised that it
is wrong to merge the two offices, and
that If they had done then what they
feel compelled to do now, there would
have been no occasion for this action.
But they went ahead, and, later, Mr..
Yungerman stated in Council that he
employed two leading attorneys to de-
fend his inCumbency of the two offices
and that he would himself pay all costs.
At that time, too, it was stated that
these would be-nOt 81 600, but, COM
paratively, small sum. What has
since occurred to raise this to 81 900,
and to induce Mr.. Yungerman to con-
slider that his defence would have to be
borne by the people he has not stated"
Mr. Hohing questions also the legal
prOpriety of COuncilmen abandoning
their office as trustees of the people i'll
terests to stand by those of Mr.. Yunger-
man.
Mr.. Hohing informed the JOURNAL
also that caucus was held at the Hotel
Gladstone preliminary to the Council
meeting, at which, he believes, some
outside influence prevailed, and that the
subsequent special meeting in the Coun-
Gil Chamber was a mere fOrmality-an
illegal proceeding in the fact that no
notice was given the people of its pur-
port, so that it could be public" as re
quired by Section 10 of the Charter.
Lastly he says Mr.. Yungerman re-
signed the wrong office. The office in.
validated by his acceptance of the treas
urership was that of Councilman, and,
as Councilman, he is still assailable,
and he and Council will still have to meet
the isSue-March 9th.
The JOURNAL takes Mr.. Eungerman'
position from an article in the Cumber-
land NewS of last Saturday; Mr.. Hob
ing's from a verbal statement after he
had read the NcWS article. Both are
given briefly as possible, and without
the slightest Partially or prejudice for
or aSainst either.
