A large number of persons were
unable to return to Baltimore last
night because of the fact that they |
could not secure stateroom accomo-
dations. The Baltimore, Chesapeake
and Atlantic Railway Company is
far from giving satisfactory service
on the Choptank river line We do
not know what the conditions are
upon other lines, but upon this one
it is not an infrequent occurrence
for passengers to have to sit up all
night because they cannot procure
staterooms. The boats, too, fire.
quently do not get into the wharf
at Cambridge until very late hour.
During the past week the excuse
has been offered that the boats are
heavily laden with fertilizer, which
makes it impossible to get here ear
lier. Why not an additional freight
boat?
