Town Will Remain Without a Rail
road Agent and Other, ABILITIES.

By the veto of Governor Harrington,
which he exercised last Thursday, the
town of Bloomington, Garrett countyE
one of the important coal points in this
section, will remain without a railroad
agent as it has for some years past.
At the recent session of the Legis.
lature bill was passed through both
houses making it mandatory upon the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad company
to establish an agency at that point for
the accommodation of the travelling pub
lie and for the purpose of billing out
and receiving freight and baggage from
trains passing through the town. This
measure was one of great Importance
to the business men and others OF
Bloomington and it was quite surprise
when it was announced that the Cover
nor had vetoed the bill
Merchants and others at Bloomington
are greatly handicapped and put to more
or less expense and trouble by the
methods now employed by the railroad
company, as goods consigned to that
point are unloaded and uncared for upon
their arrival unless arrangements are
made prior thereto with some resident
of the town to look after them. No
eastbound local freights are stopped to
discharge goods and in consequence
they are carried through to Piedmont
and brought back the following day.
1t is now understood that the matter
will be taken up with the Public Service
Commission by the parties interested.
