THREE INTERESTS
FIGHT FOR W:-B.-A.
Pennsylvania, B. & o. and
BondhoIders Seek Line
in Receivership.
BY the Associated Press.

BALTIMORE, July 1.-Two rail-
roads and a group of bondholders to-
day were on the lists in battle to OBJ
tain possession Of portions Of the
States transportation stepchild, the
Washington, Baltimore g. Annapolis
Electric Railroad.
The electric line, in the hands of
receivers for number of years, has
risen in recent weeks from the status
OF a utility about to be abandoned
to the point where it Is now q bone
Of contention for the PENNSYLVANIA
and Baltimore Il Ohio Railroads and
the w. B. & A. bondholders.
At a hearing before Judge william
c. Coleman in United States District
Court yesterday the conflicting inter-
ests seeking 10 gain possession of the
line argued their cases. Judge Cole
man ended the proceedings by taking
the matter under advisement pending
a decision later this week.
Would Spend S300,000
Speaking on behalf Of the bond
holders of the Annapolis Short Line,
highest bidders for the North Shore
Line in the recent auction, Edgar Allen
Poe, local attorney, told the court the
bondholders plsnned to spend $780,
600 in improving the line.
He said an agreement with the Bal
timore & Ohio Railroad had been
reached Whereby the electric line
could use the 3. & o. terminal at
Camden street here, as well as a por-
ton of the railroads trackage.
In exchange, Poe said, the W., B.
and A. would turn over to the steam
road one-third of its net receipts.
However. he pointed out, a projected
loan from the r. r. c. was the point
on which the plans of the bondhoid-
ers hinged. He had not heard of the
APPROVAL Of the loan, he said.
Competition Question.
He asserted successful operation Of
the short line would depend largely
on lack Of competition, and that, If
the Pennsylvania Railroad purchased
the Annapolis-Fort Meade Junction
Cor south shore) route, as the Penn
sylvania has offered to do, neither
service could be operated with profit.
Counsel for the Pennsylvania Rail-
road contended the route to Fort
Meade Junction and Odenton, where
the W., B. and A. connects with the
main line, offered more direct route
from Annapolis to Washington and
offered passenger service to commut-
ers in the area along the line.
And, on the outskirts of the con-
troversy, a Detroit manufacturing
company is waiting to sell the ulti-
mate owner Of the line gasoline driven
bus-trains, suitable for operation on
tracks and paved streets.

milk SALE 0. K.D
Ban on Pouring Liquid From
Large Containers Issued
Here.

Milk sold at all public places must
be served in the original bottles and
may not be poured into glasses from
large coolers or other containers, under
a regulation adopted by the Commis-
sioners on recommendation by DR..
George c. Rutland, health officer.
The rule was proposed by DR.. Ruh-
land to bring the practice here into
line with that of most large cities
where such ordinances have been pro-
mulgated In The interest Of protection
of the quality of the milk. The rule
here becomes effective on August Is
The regulation provides q fine Of
SIS for each violation.
The change has been sought for
years by DR.. Reid r. Ashworth, chief
food inspector Of the Health Depart
ment, who was successful in the
past in his efforts to get approval
from his former chiefs. When it was
proposed to DR.. Ruhland, new health
officer, he promptly indorsed the move
Milk served from the original bot
ties, he contends, protects its tested
quality and purity and gives assurance
that pasteurized milk has not been
mixed with raw milk. Also when milk
is drawn FROM large containers some
customers do not get their quota OF
butter fat content, since cream rises
to the top. he said.
