THE DESTRUCTIVE RAILROAD. If the Building of the Road Continues Every ‘Trace of the Battlefield Will Be Oblit- erated—An Injunction May Be Obtained by the Secretary of War. — pees: Gentlemen who are interested in the preser- vation of the Gettysburg battlefield say that the claim of the corporation which is building the trolley road that the United States govern- ‘ment has no right to interfere with their work because it does not own the land is not altogether well founded. They say ‘that while the government has not actually Purchased the ground it has clearly indicated its intention of so doing by the enactment of legislation to preserve and mark the lines of the battlefield and by appropriating $25,000 toward the accomplishment of that purpose. AN INJUNCTION POSSIBLE. Inasmuch as the report of Maj. Davis shows clearly that the operation of the trolley com- pany is a serious defacement of the bat- tle ground at several important points the question arises as to whether or not the War Department could not at least obtain an injunction against the corporation to prevent a continuance of the work of spoliation on the simple ground thet it would prevent the execution of the announced legislative policy of the government for the preservation and marking of the military lines in their proper condition. It would be for the courts then to determine whether or not an injunction would lie against this private corporation to prevent it from in- terfering with the plans of the United States government with respect to this battlefield. TIME FOR CONGRESS TO DECIDE. Undoubtedly it would furnish the basis of a preliminary injunction at least, which would be kept in court long enough for Congress to finally deeide what it shall do with regard to the Gettysburg battlefield. There have been repeated attempts on the part of those who are interested in preserving | the historical monuments of that field to ob- tain the necessary appropriation from the gov- ernment to purchase the ground, which the farmers who own the fields are quite willing to dispose of to the government. One thing at least is certain. If the trolley company is allowed to go on with its work of destruction, leveling hills and filling up valleys, the great battlefield of Gettysburg will lose much of its identity and be hardly more than | an ordinary graveyard, and the natural objects which now enable the visitor to get a clear idea of the scene of the principal battle of the war Of the rebellion. will have disappeared forever from the face of the earth. SECRETARY LAMONT'S FUTURE ACTION. Secretary Lamont has appointed a commis- sion to execute the law providing for the preservation and marking of the lines of the battlefield. but beyond that his of action | isstill undetermined. He has been advised, however, that his course is very simple and that | he has full authority under the law to stop any farther work by the trolley company. He has been advise’ that by notifying the Attorney General that he ix about to carry out the provision of the act and take charge of the | battlefield the Department of Justice can pro- | eced to condemn any property necessary or a rule can be obtained upon the trolley company to show cause why they should not vacate the premises. HAS POWER TO BUY THE LAND. The report that the United States has no power to buy land on this battleficld is erroneous, On May 7, 1889, Gor. Beaver approved an act which is still in full force and which provides “that the consent of the commonwealth of Pennsyi- vania is hereby given to the acquisition by the United States of such pieces and tracts of land situate upon and in the neighborhood of the battlefield of Gettys- burg, in the state of Pennsylvania, as may be selected by the Secretary of War or such officer as he may direct for the pur- pose of erecting monuments, for opening and const:ucting roads and avenues, for the vation of the grounds covered by said | Pattiefiold and other ‘purposes, and for tasking such other improvements in ‘connection with the waid battlefield as the government of the United States may from time to time deem Pithere isa Siepecttion among some of the veterans here, who are deeply interested in reventing any desecration of the battle- Bea, to criticise the legislature of | Pennsylvania for not taking some step to checking the trolley company. While the right to condemn the property has been ceded by the state to the general govern- ment it is claimed that the legislature can still prevent any company from exercising a fran- chise over the property. WHAT THE CONTRACTOR SAYS. Mr. H. 0. Duerr of the firm of contractors engaged in constructing the trolley railroad says the “damage and desecration, if there is any, has already been done, as the road is al- most entirely graded and ‘ready to have the track laid.” Mr. Duerr also says that five miles of the road are in the streets of the town and roads of the country and three miles are through private lands purchased by the company. Wherever the road runs through private lands it is the intention of the company to restore the original condition as nearly as possible. Mr. Duerr intimated that the present agita- tion had been started by the Gettysburg Battle- field Memorial Association in order to force the foTerHment to take the case of the field off ite , a8 it is practically bankrupt. Mr. Duerr said: “The United States is limited in ite power to take and condemn property in the states to cortan pe to which it is to be used. It cannot take it for battlefield or park without a special act of Congress a miasion act of our legislature. The Gettyeburg Electric railway rights and franchises cannot be interfered with.” The contractors will go on with the work un- til it is completed, and hope to have it ready in afew weeks. ——— FOUND AT LAST.

Simmel ibviencnseension THE VALKYRIE BEATEN. Only a Length Behind the Prince's Yacht ~ "When She Was Disabled. Yesterday's yacht race ofthe Royal Thames Clab off Gravesend, England, wasa grand one. In the judgment of many Lord Dunraven's new yacht, the Valkyrie, which is coming to America to race for the America’s cup, would have won had not her bowsprit broken. "in the opinion of the sporting papers, however.the Bri- tania showed her superiority over the Valkyrie, The starting gun was fired at noon and all the yachts were then close together. The Valkyrie profited by good judgment in having extra hands aboard and reached the line so us to get fuil benefit of the gun and the weather berth. The Britannia followed her closely over the ine, then came the Iverna and the Calluna. ‘There wasa grand race between the Britannia, and the Valkyrie to get round the Mouse light- ship first. ‘The Britannia secured the honor by narrow margin. Both presented magniicent ights as they went round carrying their spin: nakers almost to the point. ‘The turning was a marvelous change from the old-time sailing, for by her shortness and depth of keel each was enabled to turn almost as if on a pivot, The Britannia started homeward fully seven seconds ahead of the Valksrie.

The unwonted interest shown by the Prince of Wales is supposed to have been due to his in- tention to trr to beat Emperor William's yacht Meteor with the Britannia at the Cowes races, The Prince of Wales expressed himself highly satisfied with the performance of his boat, which was one of the three Scotch cutters recently built on the Clyde for this season's racing. The following are the dimensions of the lead- ing boats: ‘dramacht, 10 feet ts water Line denth, 86 feet leneth anain boom, 0 feet.

In the evening “The Chimes of Normandy” will be sung by ® cast which includes many of the best of the local amateurs. The remark- ably successful production of this opera by the same performers last February will be remem- bered by all with pleasure, and is a guarantee of what may be expected. “The cast will incinde Mrs. Shir-Ciiff, Miss Ruth Thompson, Herndon Morsell, Theodore Friebus and Oliver Hines, ‘The hospital should reap a rich barvest from two such performances. Both will be under the direction of Prof. DuShane Cloward.
