BALTIMORE. Oct 1S--No action
will be taken by the Public Service
Commission, on the intimation by
President Samuel Rea OF the Penn
svivania Railroad that the Chesa-
peake Bay steamship lines con-
trolied by. that company might be
discontinued. unless the company
forces the issue. Such action could
come either by application for per-
mission to discontinue or by giving
some tangible evidence that the
boats would stop running The
commission does not take seriously
the intimation that the service may
be discontinued.
II the company should give evil
dence Of such intention. steps would
be taken at once to compel continu-
ance OF the service until the case
could be heard by the commission.
There is no doubt in the minds OF

4 probe as would be Instituted would
throw much light on the whole
Eastern Shore transportation situa-
ton.
The only complication. so far as
the Public Service Commission is
concerned. is the fact that the boat
lines are operating under a suspen-
sion OF an order OF the Interstate
Commerce Commission which re-
quired the railroad company to di-
vorce itself from its water lines. as
required by the Panama Canal act.
Just what effect that situation may
have has not been determined. but
General Counsel Bruce, OF the Pub
lie Service Commission, has been
asked by Chairman Maroy TO give an
opinion covering all phases OF the
situation.
Governor Ritchie last night said
that after looking into all the phases
OF the situation he was not alarmed
at the possibility of any immediate
suspension of service. "It may hap
pen some time in the far future" he
said. Anything may happen in the
future. But il the Pennsylvania

1t Is a matter OF common knowl-
edge that they do not pay because

A dispatch from Cambridge, Nd.
stated that the people OF that town
are resentful at the suggestion that
the boat service be discontinued.
"No one denies that the business
done by the steamers is not what Il
should be-" continues the dispatch,
but the b. c. and A. is largely to
blame for the falling off OF business.
1t is pointed out here that 30 years
ago there were three lines TO Cam
bridge. each operating two boats
Through sales and consolidation the
lines were reduced to two, apd these
apparently did good business. Yet
today one line does not make money.
Loss OF freight shipments and pas
senger traffic by the b., c. and A. is
said to be due largely TO the fact
that there has not been a daily
schedule
"Col. Albanlus Phillips stated that,
in his Judgment. the Baltimore,
Chesapeake and Atlantic has alien
ated the public by neglect. II the
Pennsylvania should quit the field
he believes the Eastern shore will
see that there are boat lines between
their ports and Baltimore.
Robert II. Matthews, president
OF the Chamber Of Commerce, gave
out the following statement as rep
resenting the views of the majority
Of the members Of that body:
1T is the opinion Of the major
ity of the merchants and business
men of Cambridge that II would be
better If the bay boats were oper-
ated by an Independent company.
The lack OF patronage on the Chop
tank river boats is due 10 the irreg-
ular service on this line. To revive
business sufficiently to operate the
boats profitably on this line daily
service is necessary.
