NUMBER 355 . WATER FATALTO DEMOCRACY: The Floods Wash Away an Ime portant Jacksonian Machine. A HIT AT MARYLAND BOURBONS, —_— The Great Chesapeake and Ohio Oanal Destroyed by the Anclent Enemy of the Great Unwashed. 513 FOURTEENTA STRERT, Wasnixeron, D. C,, June 4, WasmixaroN Bureav, Tur OMATA Brs, } A more direct ana lasting blow could not well have been delivered at the democracy of Maryland than in the abandontent of tha Chesapeake and Ohio canal. The floods have swept away great portions of the tow path and destroyed most of the locks in this artery of navigation, and it is to be sold to any raile road or other corporation that would like to utilize it either for the construction of a rail- road or for the purpose of rebuilding and operating it as a canal. A good many years lgg the canal used to be profitable and was about to be abandoned by the stockholders, when the stute of Maryland came to the ross cue and has each: year appropriated a sufficient sum of money to keep it in repair, It controls avery large number of votes, and as ite management has been within the grasp of Senator Gorman and other bourbon boss it has been used as a powerful machine an kept the state in the democratic line. It hag undoubtedly held the balance of power in the state, and whenever it goes out of the umar of Gorman there will be a very por- ble weakening ot the party in Mary- land, Gorman was the first to announce that the floods had so destroyed the canal as to make it impracticable for the state to con- tinue backing it, and advised that it be dis- posed of for any price that was offered, Gorman is prominently connected with thd West Virginia Central railroad, which com-, pauy had its eye on the Chesapeake & Ohis canal for some time, desiring to wcnre'g with a view of building a railroad. line in Washington and Baltimore, and it is bes d that his principal object is now to pu railroad company on the_iuside fo securing the canal property. Railroad men say the Peunsylvania company, which wants A line directly to the west from this city, is likely to secure it. The Chesapeake & Ohio canal was a flourishing institution long before railronds were popular hereabouts. It made a direct connection into Central Ohio, and at one time the entire length wi owned by a single corporation. The state of Maryland only controls this waterway within her own territory. The abandonment of this canal means a terrible blow at Georgetown, which is the western limit of Washingtor This old city has been gradually retrograd: ing for fiffeen or twenty vears, and the flour- ing and other mlls which have been keptup by this canal. were the only institutions give ing 1t any commerciai importance whatever. These will undoubtedly go down with the abandonment of the canal, as the canal fur- nishes all of the water power and the only means of transportation of value. Millions of dollars are invested in the Georgetown water franchise, and they atl depend upom A LOVER OF RED TAPE, Commissionary General MacFeely, who has been acting as acting secretary of wary created & most unpleasant ‘sensation this afternoon by arbitrarily refusing to obey Secretary ‘Proctor’s orders to sena bréfid vo! the Johnstown sufferers.

After a conference, Secretar Tracy concluded to relieve the si uation from his own larders, and immediately issued orders that all the ship biscuit at the various navy store- houses along the Atlantic coast should be forwarded to Johnstown.

Similar conduct involving the loan of a large number of tents, which have never been returned to the war department was shown during the Charleston carthquakes and subsequently during the yellow fever scourge in Florida, and thero has never been any criticism of it in ofticial cles, NEW NEDRASKA POBTMASTERS.
