Ni THE o Ae earns ACROSS THE LUNG gr The following debate took place in the U.S. Senate on Saturday last, on this subject: Mr. Brown.—Mr. President, I give way now to wy colleague on the committee, the Senator from Maryland, to call ups bill in which he is interested, and which he has reported him- self. in reference to the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. Before he does so, I wish to notice that when that is disposed of, I shall ask the Senate to ti up the bill in reference to dam grow’ {ot of the grading of streets of the city of Washington Mr. Kennedy.—I beg 1} take up the bill S. No. 377 The motion was agreed to; and the Senate, asin Committee of the Whole, proceeded to consider the bill (S. No 377) to authorize the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company te ex- tend the Washington branch of their road to Potomae river. and across the same, by an ex- tension of the present structure known as the ig bri r the purpose of connectin: with the Virginia railroads at that point. It authorizes the Baltimore snd Ohio railroad Company to extend the Washington branch of their road from a ages in Washington city, near G street north, passing through First street east, to near D street south; thence 7 *® curve crossing New Jersey avenue, Sout! pitol street, and the canal, to E street south, and through the last-named street to the Poto- mae river, and to extend the line of railroad across the river by means of a pile structure, adjacent to and connected with the Long Bridge, for a railroad track on the eastern side of the bridge,so.as to form aconnection with the Virginia shore, and with such railroads as may be made or already have been made by author- ity of the State of Virginia to that point; but the widening or extension of the Long Brid, is to be constructed with suitable draws e convenience of navigation. The Bal more and Obio Railroad Company are also thorized to construct a tunnel upon that por- tion of the line, authorized to be extended by this act, lying between a point near C street orth, and the west side of New Jersey avenue, se ag to involve noinjary to ah eo grounds or permanent obstruction to the use of the streets for ordinary purposes; and the com- pany is to have power to use steam or locomv- tive power on whole or any part of the route. Power aud authority are given to the company to lay a track, and touse the same for the transp« rtation of passengers and freight, from some suitable point on the route to be ex- n ater, between the Long Bridge Yard, so as to be connected with southern lines of steamboats plying on the Po- tomac river. The company are also to have authority to lay a street track from some con- venient point on the main route to the depot of the company in Washington, and aro to have ower to transport upon the same cars for | Baer and passengers. until such time as the tunnel shall be completed. They ara also to bave authority to charge for the transpertation of merchandise or freight, of every description. upon the connecting railroad to the termini thereof at tide-water, and on the Virginia shore, at the rate of not exceeding twenty-five cents per ton net, and for the transportation of passen, at a rate not exceeding twenty-five cents for each passenger carried by them upon the connecting rail . “the Committes on the District of Columbia reported the biil with various amendments. ir. Clark.—This is a bill, I underetand, for a connection with the Baltimore and Ohio rail- road Mr. Brown.—I su; it to the Senator to let the amendments of the committee be read. Mr. Clark.—I have no objection to that; but I was going to ask thatit be postponed for a little while. My attention has just been called to it by some of the people of Georgetown. = Mr. Brown.—Address yourself to the Sen- ator from Maryland. He has the bill in charge. Mr. Clark.—I did not understand who had it in char, 7 Mr. Reet am opposed to the bill my- LTIMORE AND ve now to move to or Hf. . Mr Clark. —I will ask that it be postponed until I have en opportunity of examining it. The people of Georgetown are largely inter- ested in it. They consider it to be very much te their detriment, and desire to have some facts and considerations presented, which I am not prepared to present now. I was in the ante-room of the Senate conferring with some gentlemen in regard to it at the time when it was called up. and that is the reason why I did not know who had it incharge. I simply ask that an opportunity be given to them to have some Tittle time for presenting their view: regard toit. I believe they were never heard before the committee, and they desire ta. be heard ome time, either by somebody who shall make a statement for them, or in some other wa: or. - a ly. —If the honorable Senator will allow me, I am prepared to state all the ob- jeetions that may exist on the part of George- town to this bill. I should very much prefer to have it considered now, because it is one of very great importance to the trayelingcommu nity between the North and the Soatn. I have a map which shows that the only break in the line of travel between Portland, Mai ry. ight of way is Capitol, to go the river and there cross the Long dge, and conneet with the whole of the roads of the Southwest. Tho Baltimore compan this privilege, felt themseives called upon to uedertake the work, because the gap occurs at the terminus of a lateral branch of the road of that company. They have invested in this branch, leading from here to Baltimore, a cap- ital of some $1,600,000, upon which the Staie of Maryland charges them a tax of one-fifth of their receipts. They have no particular interest themselves, individually, in this thing; but in. a the wishes of railroads, both North and South, they have agreed to in- cur the expense of filling here on the ho are asking for pense reatly inereased, they will withdraw the applica once. They will — entertain par a Lay Misdble. I have the fects here before show that the cost of Georgetown, to a junction Watherg onde, will, be almost “equal the much # ag BGs | a i z of that sort in the way, the whole thing will fail; I shall not bring it up again. The Georgetown people say that th Bridge eat this ins be made manent ion of a street out Washington, which can hardly without breaking up and disturbing vested a on the other side.of the river. The public convenience of the whole city is very much interested in the permanency of that bridge, and I feel sure that it il not be taken away. Atall events, I am willing to say for the Baltimore and Ohio Company, that they will consent to a provision bein; put into this bill, providing that, if the bridge shall ever be taken away, they will abandon the whole thing. They will build their road along- ridge, with the risk and chance of being broken down. It is the short- est, the cheapest, and the most feasible route, and the only one that they are willing to ac- cept. s te. Cameron.—Mr. President, I have great respect for the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, because I think they have do’ wonders for the internal improvement of the eountry. Theirs was the first railroad started in this country, and it was completed amidst great difficulties. The Presiding Officer, (Mr Foster in the chair.)—Will the Senator suspend his remarks for a moment, so that the first amendment re- ported from the committee may be read, in order that the question may be distinctly pre- sented before the Senate. The Secretary read the amendment, which is, in the first section, to insert after the word “pile,” im the eleventh line, the words ‘‘or other suitable;"’ so as to read To extend said line of railroad across the river, by means of a pile or other suitable structure, adjacent to or connected with the Long Bridge Mr. Cameron.—I desire to say, without any more preface, that there are two or three amendments which I desire to propose to this bill. While I give all credit to the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company for their great enterprise, which has done a great deal of good, I must say that I do not believe they come here now exclusively for the purpose of serving th@ public. I think they come here to get a great benefit from Congress; one which will be of great service to their stock, and which will enable them to derive great advantages. If you give them this right, without some altera- tion of the bill, you destroy private rights which have been recognized by Congress; and you destroy the interests of private individuals in this neighborhood. who have invested very large sum; of money for the benofit of the pub- lic. A railroad has been made within the last few years from the city of Alexandria city, under the sanction of Congress, and in the belief, on the part of the gentlemen who in- vested their money in the enterprise, that they were going to be protected according to their charter. If you give this company the right to pass over the fous Bridge now, you destroy the vested rights of that company, from the Long Bridge to Alexandria. Mr. Kennedy —The honorable Senator will allow me to say to him, that I think this bill is now drewn in entire concurrence with the views of the Alexandria and Washington road. The Baltimore and Ohio branch wil! join that road at the other end of the Long Bridge. Mr: Brown —I will say, with the indulgence of the Senator from Pennsylvania, that in that conclusion my colleague on the committee, the Senator from Maryland, is entirely mistaken. The Washington and Alexandria Railroad Com- pany are necessarily very bitterly opposed to this whole scheme. They asked the same franchise which is now proposed to give to this company, and Congress refused it. Mr. Cameron.—1 was going to say that the principal owner of this stock called upon mo this morning to say that he had not been able to make any arrangement with the Baltimore and Ohio company. The Baltimore and Ohio Rail- road Company, with its millions of capital disposed to treat these people, who have invested their one or two hundred thousand dollars as nothing, because millionshave creat power over hundreds. These men have expended atleast a $100,000 in making a railroad from Alexandr: to the end of this bridge, and they have been anxious from the commencement to cross the bridge or make any connection with the Balti- more and Ohio Railroad that Congress would authorize them to do; but they appealed in vain. Now you pro to destroy their rights, for the result of this bill will be, in m ment, that the Baltimore and Obio Company, instead of crossing the Long Bridge, so 48 to connect with the Alexandria railroad, will go down on this side of the river and make aconnection of their own. Within the last year, one hundred and twenty-five thousand passe: have been cerried between Alexan- dria and Washington on this railroad—an im- mense number of people—and yet scarcely anybody in Washington knows anything about the roi Instead of permitting these pea le to take their road directly across that bri ge and connect with the Baltimore and Ohio rail- road, you have compelled them to land at the bridge, go around by the windings of the river, and ta circuitous route to tne depot here, occupying an hour for a journey which ought not to occupy more than ten mtnutes, and ul! becaxse this great corporation desires to eat up that little one. I have one amendment now to propose, and then I have several others; because I tell you, Mr. President, this company isinterfering with traveling aud communication between the tant connections of this ct A such a way aa no corporation ever hasdone. When I gohome I have to wait four or five hours in Baltimore, cause the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Compa- ny is afraid that I, or somebody else, may over to Harrisburg, and thence to Northumber- land, and thence to Elmira, und thence to the ‘eat Northwest; or from H: » this througb; and happen to be five minutes behind in getting into Baltimore, [ must wait five or six hours, instead of taking the train which leaves half an hour after they get there. They will not check for me or any- body else, e: those acd a oS aed, re le travel rom South com] J arrange- ment of this company, to go three hundred miles out of the wae a get to Niagara Pails, in place of going ai yup. Mr. President, the Niagara are thirty miles nearer to the city of W: than they are to the » all travelers from Mr. Brown.—I do not desire to be embar- rassed at all by the motien, and I hope the Senator will withdraw it for a moment, so that I may be in order in saying a word; and then he can renew it. Brown —I am ‘opposed to this bill, though it comes from the committee of which T am chairman; and I protested against it in committee, and I protest nst ithere. I think, with all due deference to my friend from Maryland, my colleague on the committee, that he is entirely mistaken in saying that. even this company will not make the connec- tion by the Ley yond route, if you require them to do so; but if they do not, somebody else will. Mr. Cameron.—I will make it myself, if nec- essary, Mr. Brown.—It is very much more conveni- ent and less expensive to make it by the route thi the city of Washington across the Long Bridge, as they propose, to make it somewhere else; but this proposition isin total disregard of the whole former action of Cov- gress on the subject; it is in total derogation of all the natural rights of the little city of Georgetown. It is a proposition to allow a mammoth 224! bere to monopolize great ad- yantages, and that under the threat that un- less they are allowed to do the thing as they choose, they will not do ii ; and that if they do not do it, nobody else will. ghey pepe to go through the center of the city of Washington and across the Long Bridge, and why? Because to make that connection will be less expensive, according to their own account, by about four hundred thousand dol- lars; and they come to tell us that every rail- road company from Portland, in Maine,io New Orleans, in Loui a, is interested in this con- nection. So they are. These railroad com- panies have a capital of more than two hun- dred million dollars; and yet they higgle at the idea of expending $400,000 to make a con- nection through this city. They will mar the beauty of the national capital—that they are ready todo, if you will allow it. They seek to get a perpetual right to run their steam ears, their burden trains, through your city, and to give to the commerce of (ieorgetown an everlasting death blow, by perpetuating the Long Bridge below the natural harbor of that city. They will break up of whieh the Senator from Pennsylvania has just now spoken; and swallow up all these in- terests, for what? In the soulless spirit in which corporations always act for themselves, and in total disregard of the rights and inter- ests of everybody else. Suppose it does cost $400,000 more to build the road in the right place; capital wiil build it; and if you will say to this mammoth Balti- more corporation, ‘You shall not make the connection unless you make it as we tell you,” they will do it. fhe proper way to make the connection is around drones Boundary street, crossing the Potomac at the aqueduct upon piers built there by the Government; and I tell you that you have scientific reports on your archives now showing that the connection can be made in less time in that way than across the Long Bridge, giving nobody any annoyance, giving nobody any disturbance, not taking from the little city of Georgetown rights which were given her by the God of na- ture. She is entitled tothe navigation of the Potomac unobstructed. You have already thrown a bridge across the river below her, which has injured her commerce, dwarfed her resources, made her little and contemptible when she would have been a great and thriving city, but for the interference of this Govern- ment. Now, it is proposed to authorize this great mammoth corporation, which wields a capital of $10,000,000, to cross the bridge on a railroad at the same point. My friend from Maryland talks about your reserving the right to remove the bridge. and necessarily to remove the fran- ehise of the railroad upon it. Sir, when did Congress ever move anything when it was once established? Let this road cross there, with its $40,000,000 capital, and its combina- tions everywhere that amount, perhaps, $2,500,000,000, and then talk about breaking itup! You might ss well undertake to pitch straws against a fearful hurricane as to do any- thing against such an influence. That is the common-sense view of it. They come here; they interfere with members of Congress; they talk to them; they go through all the ramifica- tions. Ido not say that their money is going to be used to bribe or corrupt members of Cou- gress. I am very far from insinuating that, and I am sorry that it is even necessary in the present state of congressional affairs to put in ® protest on that point; but they send their presidents and secretaries and attaches and others, to say: “We are interested in this thing; we do not want this connection broken up.’” They bring a personal and direct in- fluence to bear on Senators and Representa- tives, and the thing never will be done. If you allow this railroad company to throw its track across the river, at the site of the Long Bridge, you perpetuate the thing, and it will stand there to eternity, and never will be broken up. Ido not want to discuss the advan and disadvantages of Georgetown; but my principal object in rising was to say that all this talk about their not making the connection, except it is done just in this way, has not, from the inning, struck me with any force. I do not care the snap of my finger whether the Balti- more and Ohio Company undertake to do it or not; something else will. You have almost got yourconnection now. The Loudoun and Hemp- shire road have aiready got the privilege, or are within an ace of it, of coming to George- town. I think the House of Representatives has some little amendment to that bill of ours, in which I have been notified by the honurabl gentleman who presides over the District Co mittee in that House that they are going to a: our concurrence in, in aday or two. I am cer- tainly for agreeing to it, and [ think the Se: ate willbe. Then lay down your avenue rail- road from Georgetown to the depot here, and you have your connection—not so perfectly as esire, but certainly a railroad connection through the whole line. Mr. Kennedy.—I beg to correct my faiend. The Loudoun and Hampshire road does not connect at all with the southwestern lines. It rans in a different line. Mr. Brown.—My friend is mistaken. It to there connects with Railroad. The ‘rom company propose bra: a eit the toruna nel their. road into the city of Georgetown, and Con- gress has given its consent to that. Then, I aay agsin, when you connect Baltimore and Uhio depot, just at the foot of Capitol Hill, gee Avenue with that line, you have got a railroad connec- tion clear not Bo this little company, while.
