INTERVENTION IS SOUGHT
MARYLAND Utilities Commission
May Act in Hyattsvi|le
Railroad Controversy.
pecial Correspondence Of The Star.

EVANSVILLE, January II. 1913.
The initial step to prevail upon the pub
lie utilities commission of Maryland to
intervene in the controversy between the
citizens of Hyattsville and the Washing
ton. Westminster and Gettysburg Rail-
road Company over the effort of the COM
pany to cross certain streets with their
tracks at grade. was taken al meeting
of the mayor and common council, y
committee from the local citizens asSo-
citation appeared and urged the town Off
Gals to bring the matter to the attention
of the commission.
Town Counsel Vincent A. Sheehy and
Attorney Jackson II. Ralston We're named
to present the matter to the state au-
thorities. The matter of the proposed
crossing of the tracks of the City and
Suburban railway just outside the cor
porate limits of Hyattsville will also be
brought to the attention of the commits
sion.
About two years ago the Washington
Westminster and Gettysburg Railroad
Company in which several capitalists OF
Washington are interested. constructed
a roadbed through the southwestern sec.
ton of Hyattsville. After the work of
grading and filling had been done appli-
ca ton was made to the mayor and COM
mon council for authority to do the work.
The local authorities declined. The
public service commission ruled that the
matter was entirely within the jurisdic-
ton of the town authorities. The rail-
road company filed petition in the cir
cult court for Prince Georges county.
asking that the company be granted per-
mission to condemn the property over
Columbia avenue. The request was
granted and from this decision the mayor
and common council appealed. The case
now is pending in the Maryland court OF
appeals at Annapolis.

No Effort to Raise Vessel From Bot
tom of Bay.

According to report, no effort will be
made to destroy the wreck of the four
masted schooner Herbert d. Maxwell,
which has been lying sunk in Chesa-
peake bay, off the Severn river since
March 16 of last year, the engineer officer
in charge of the bay channels having
decided that as the vessel is in sixty feet
of water she will not interfere with navi-
cation. Recently the masts We're taken
out Of the vessel by wreckers, and as
soon as the bowsprit can be removed
navigation over the wreck will be de-
clared safe, and the gas buoy marking the
place where the schooner went down, will
be removed.
The Maxwell, while outward bound
from Baltimore with a load of fertilizer
for Savannah. was run down by steam
ship and sunk, four of her crew being
drowned. Efforts were made to raise the
schooner, but this was found impossible
and she was abandoned. The United
States engineer office took charge of the
wreck, and removed the spars and other
parts of the vessel that We're dangerous
to passing craft.
