A special meeting of the stock and bondhold- | ers of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal company 9nd others interested In the Cumberland coal trade was held at the Arlington Hotel yester- day to consider certain recommendations sub- mitted by the presi¢ent and directors of that company looking to the improvement of canal | Bavigation. The canal company was repre- sented by Hon. A. P. Gorman, president; Hon. } Hy. D. Farnandis, Hon. Patrick Hamili and Col. | James G. Berret, directors; the bondnolders by Mr. W. W. Corcoran, Gen. Bradley T. Johnson, | Charles C. Glover and E. Francis Riggs of Riggs | € Co., Joseph Bryan, Gen. Corse, Messra. Berry, | Garden, McDonald, Baldwin, Matthews, Cutts, A. Bowie Davis, A. Ross Ray, Hy. T. Wild, bard Carter, Dr. Walia e and others, and the coal interests by Hy. Lovert Maryland coal company, and G. P. | dent American coal company. President Go man, of the canai company, after calilog tae meeting to order and stating briefly why the call been issued, nominated Mr. Corcoran, of Washington, the oldest bondnolder, for chatr- man. Mr. Corcoran dec'tned the honor, and Mr. A. Bowle Davis, of the trustees of the bona- holders, was then called to the chair, Mr. Jno. M. Phelan, of the canal company, acting as secretary. President Gorman then submitted a report, which 1s addressed to the stockholders and holders of comstruction bona3 ander the act of 1544, and is a voluminous document. It states that having been entrusted with the manage- re Baltimore, and John W. of Alexandria, Va., Was appointed ‘under ther resolution. THE CROSSING AT CUMBERLAND. In that portion of the mn dearips ‘upon the probability of a 1 fi in Me ro) ofa increase business of the canal, President ai the sreugen Creek railroad, was heard fo re- ard to the proposed connection at Cumber- land and the making of his road a feeder to the canal. His remarks were very favorabiy re- celved, and it is understood that the George's Creel iy will refuse the conditions under which a ‘crossing was provided for by the recent decision of the rd of pubite works, in which event it is anticipated that a crossing will be permitted to the George’s Creek company under more advantageous cond'tlons, Should this be refused, however, the canal com- pany will enterinto legal proceedings, in con- hecticn with the George’s Creek compan: enforce their rights under the contracts of 1 and 1s78, entered into between the state of Maryland, the Chesapeake and Obio canal com- Paby and the Baltimore and Onio railroad.

It unpalatable facts are pre- Sented, It will be because their desires are to render the stockhoicers a service, and because their convictions are so strong that if the canal Were their individual property they would make the improvements suggested even more prey then they can hope to do under ex. ing circumstances. The report recites the history of the canal aud of the successive steps by wittch {ts rivals, and mainly the Baltimore and Onlo Railro: have increased their carrying capacity and de- creased the charges of transportation, and urges the necessity of making improvements upon the canal to meet that railroad competl- tion.

The old soldters have no power to arrest, but can only cautton visitors, and as the police force is not large enough to guard these grounds, the flowers are broken abd carried away by wholesale. —_.——— SALE or PLaNTS.—Thomas Dowiltng will sell to-morrow, within bis auction roots, a splen- @id collection of flowering plants of every kaowR Variety.

Other canals in this country have had the same problem to solve, and they have eolved it in different ways, The best way to do this is to lengthen the locks 100 feet, s0 that two boats may be passed through together, being coupled and directed at all times in their movements by a patented device which makes a single displacement ne- cessary, the two boats carrying 240 ton3, and both belng propelled by a power which only exceeds by one-sixth that which is required to propel a single boat carrying not more than i2p tons, and manned by thesame crew required for a singie boat. To lengthen all the locks between Cumber- land and Georgetown. seventy in number, by makipg the composite locks, and having the Umber creasoted, together with improved’ ap- pllances for opening and closing the gates, so astosave the labor of one man at each lock, Would cost about $7,000 per lock—$190,000; but by lengthening thirty-three locks, ac a cost of $231,000, We Can use double boats, coupled, on 163 miles of the is4 miles of cana), and the lecks remaining unimproved can be left ta groups. At such points it will be necessary for the company to maintain animal power to Pass the boats through the single locks, CANALS NOT OBSOLETE, ‘There is a theory that canals are obsolete and unprofitable. This is true of all canals which have not been enlarged sufliclently to keep ace with the improvements made on other ines of transportation. It is not true a3to these canals a have been improved by roper enlargement Faeisto the whole output of this Cumberland region was only... In 1880 10 WAS... 0.0.2... In_ 1590, If the increase is in the ‘Same rato, It will be... +++.17,234,988 tons As large as this Increase would Seem to be, {t must be-remem- Lered that the anthracite coal flelag, which produced in 1870 Within a fraction of.

But if you fail to make these tmprove- ments, and the contemplated reduction in charges is made by the competing railroad Imes, then {t is more than probable that your tolls’ and wharfage must be reduced {n 1932 from fifty-five (55) cents to thirty-one (31) cents, which would be a loss of one hundred and for- ty-four thousand (#144,00)) dollars per anoum on present tonnage of six hundred thousand (600,00) tons. HOW THE IMPROVEMENTS CAN BE PAID FOR. Af these facts shall determine you to direct that the improvements b2 made, the question arises how can they be pald for? In our judg- Ment there is butone way,and that is by tue of the repair bonds authorized to be te- sued by the Maryland act of im favor of which bonds the state of Maryland has, to tha extent of five hundred thousind ($500,000) dol- fend Non her Uens on the corpus of the work. ‘The actual cost of the repairs occasioned by the freshet of 1si7 (to repair which these bond; Were issued) wi 000, and we do not under- stand that there is auy objection to our raising the necessary means by the sale of these bonds, and the applicatton of the proceeds, togecuer with the net revenue of the 0: mt year, to the proposed improvement.

DISCUSSION AND ACTION. Gen. Bradley I. Johnson spoke against the proposition to issue $500,000 in repair bonds. for lengthening locks and repairs of the canal, as they had been authorized for another purpose, and urged that the company should go to the legislature and secure authority to issue new bonds. Messrs. Henry Thompson Wells, Brown and Cheney, of Baltimore, and otners, advo- cated the proposition. r. Carter offered the following: Resolved, That the president and directors of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal compaay may take the measures indicated in the commnuni- cation made by the president of the company this 24th day of May, 1ss1. in reference to the lengthening of the locks of the canal, and that the bonds authorized by the act of 1573, chapter pt used for raising the funds requisite for Pp a ‘Get.
