It arose over tho following resolution, which was offered by Austin Abbott: "iJesoZcecf. That tbe committee on Judicial administration and remedial procedure be requested to consider the subject or delays in criminal cases, re3Uiting through existing systems of review, by appeal or otherwise, so clearly brought view by the paper of Mr. Justice Brewer, and that the committee be requested to present at tha next meeting such recommendations as to the remedy therefore as tbey deem best.

A.stronsr sentiment of opposition -as immediately developed to Justice Brewer's position on the question of criminal appeals, which was understood to mean that criminal cases should end in the trial court and no appeals be permitted. Georgo M.Forrester, of Washington, moved as an amendment that the convention express itself as opposed to the abolition of courts of appeal. Professor Abbott finally accepted an amendment 10 his resolution striking out the words "so clearly brought to view by tho paper of Mr. Justice Brewer" and simply referring the amended resolution to the committee on judicial procedure and remedial legislation, with directions to report next year.

Second Vice-President Thomivs M. King, of the Baltimore nud Ohio Railroad, and General John Gill, receiver of the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley roud. who loft Baltlmoro last Monday for a trip to Virginia to consider propositions for the extension of the Valley brunch of tho Paltimoro and Ohio, havo returned to this city. As a result of their trip proposition will be prepared anl presented to President Marer, of tho Maltlmoro and Oiilo, who expected buck from Europe next week, providing for an extension of tho Valley Branch from Ijcxlngtou to Roanoke and for bringing the Baltimore and Ohio Into close alliance with tho Capo Fenr nnd Yndkln Valley and the Roanoke and Southern Roads. General Gill said a goneral desire was shown by tho people of tho Virginia Valley to have the Baltimore and Ohio make tho proposed extension.

The Cape Fear and Yadkin Yallev. Roanoke nnd Southern nnd Norfolk aud Western systems were found to have largely Increased their earnings during the past few months. A general improvement In business was observed, nnd with tho 1 romlslng crops the outlook. Oen. Otll said.

Is very bright in the territory tributary to these-roads. A special dispatch to TnK Scj from Roanoke savs: "The outcome of the visit of Vice-President King and General Gill Is awaited hero with general Interest. Th' proposition which led to their visit came, from a numbor of prominent business iuen: of Roanoke, and la Us original form was lubmitted through Mr. R. 11.

Edmonds, of Ualtlmore. It provided for the building of a railrond from Roanoke to a place on the Chesapeake and Ohio Kond near Buchanan, a distance of about thirty miles. This new lino would bo leased to the Baltimore nnd Ohio ut an annual rental of about 8 18,000, or a sum sufficient to pity 6 per cent on the cost of construction. With tbe agreement to build this road there was to bo delivered to the Ualtlmore and Ohio a contract granting it tho use of tho tracks of the Chesapeake and Ohio irom Lex-Ingtou to Buchanan, in consideration of which tho latter company was to have similar trackage rights over tho road tobo built from Buchanan to Roanoke. Under this Joint agreement both lines would bo brought Into Kounoko.

It is believed that the proposition when rut in shape for presentation to President Mayer may bo somewhat modified, but not to any material extent. Assurances of proper terminal facilities nt Rouuoko have been given." At Roanoke is the northern terminus of the llonnoke and Southern Road, which extends southward to Wiustoti-Salem, N. 121 miles, passing through a rich tobucco-vrowlng section. This road Is part of tho Norfolk und Western system. The main line of the Norfolk and Western runs through the city of Roanoke and tho general offices of the company are located there.

Just heforo reaching Winston-Salem tho Roanoke and Southern crosses tho main line of the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley lbwd. which extends from Mt. Airy to the Btaboard at Wilmington, N. C. 1U3 miles.

By reaching Roanoko and having close pffiltintlons with the Ronnoko and Southern nnd tho Cape Fear and Yndkln lines the Baltimore and Ohio would secure an entrance Into a wide area of territory, with the possibility of close relations with the Norfolk and Western at Roanoke.

Cnrtis Bay Residents Trying to Get Kid of Some Unwelcome Visitors The Sharks Have Beea Devouring: Fish in Large Numbers and Also Tear the Seines to Pieces Supposed to Have Followed a Largo Vessel Up the River. A number of the residents of Curtis Bay, including workmen at tho sugar refinery and the oid fishermen who have been supplying tho Baltimore markets with Dsn from that part of the Patapsco river for years, are trying to get rid of the sharks which have inhabited the waters near tho refinery for a month or so. So far three sharks have been seen there. Two of these are old ones and measure about eight and ten feet respectively in length. Tbo third measures four feet.

Those who have seen the sharks say they must have followed some large vessel up tho river, and finding that fish were plentiful about Curtis Bay stopped there, and have since been living at the expense of the fishermen. Mr. Godfrey Engle. chief engineer at the sugar reflnerv, has had a large steel hook, measuring 18 inches, attached to a ropo half an inch in diumeter, tied securely to the pier for several days, but has not succeeded in catching the sharks. Oa the hook be puts live pounds of fresh pork every day, but the sharks will not go near It.

A new idea has struck some of the Curtis Bay folks and they are talking of using for bait several of the good-for-nothing dogs that have been making so much noise there. The plan is to tie a biir hook to ono of them, and when a shark makes his appearance to let the dog swim out in the water. If the shark swallows the dog they expect to pull the finny monster in. Mr. Wm.

Lowry, who has been fishing in the waters of the Patapsco nearly all his lite, says the fishermen have been complaining of the scarcity of fish ever since the sharks were seen at Curtis Bay. He says there are a great quantity of fish under the pier of the sugar refi.iery which are so scared by the sharks that they remain under the pier for safety. Those which venture out are captured by their dreaded enemies. and as a result do not get as far as tho se'nes. The sharks also visit the seines, and not content with eating all tbe fish, tear the seines to pieces.

Said Mr. Lowry: "We pulled up a seine Wednesday which was full of pieces of fish. This proves that the sharks had visited the seine aud enjoyed a good meal." Mr. Lowry sars it is nearly time for the porpoises to come up tbe river. When they arrive the sharks will then have to seek the waters of the ocean or be killed by thein.

Mr. Lowry says the sharks can detect the presence of porpoisea a mile or so distant. While Mr. Jacob Rogers, one of the night watchmen at the refinery, was sitting ou tbe pier Wednesday the largest of tbo sharks came right up to the pier under his feet. A large fishing gig weiirhing eight pounds was on tbe pier, and he picked up and struck tho shark oa the hatchet fin.

He said it sounded like striking a bass drum. When struck the shark male a tremendous spu rt aud dashed away. The sharks in the river are known as the dog shark3 and have their mouths under their throat. Thev are compelled to turn over before they can bite anything. Tbey play around the pier at the refinery at night and make great sport for the watchmen and workmen.

These saarks have baen visiting different portions of tbe Patupseo river for over a month and have been seen bv numerous persons along tbe coast from Curtis Bay to the Long Bridge and Fort McUenry. Henry Schaltacb, a deck-band on tbe tug Easby. Cant. Herbert Mullen, was brought to Baltimore last night on tho tug suffering from tbe bite of a shark. On Thursday tbo Easby started to take in tow the schooner E.

F. Beale outside of Cape Henry bound for Hampton Roads. While passing tbe hawser Schaltach fell overboard. Almost instantly he wus attacked by the shark, and before the ferocious creature could be scared away it bad bitten off tbree of Schaltach's toes. Schaltach was gotten on board the vessel, where his wounds were dressed.

He was sent to bis home on South Chester street when tho Easby returned to tbe city. TO EMPEROR AND PRINCE. Congratulatory Cablegrams in Honor of the Sedan Anniversary.

Isaao Benesch on North Broadway, between McElderry and Monument streets, occupy what was one of the last vestiges of. the old Joppa road in Northeast Baltimore. This once well-known thoroughfare was one of the roads formerly leading to Joppa, on the Gunpowder river, which by the act of the Provincial Assembly was made the county seat of Baltimore county 'in Joppa flourished for a time, and became a great tobacco market, the hogsheads being rolled to town by the simple contrivance of hoop-pole shafts fastened to a pin in each end of the hogshead und attached to the horse's collar. Tbe roads used for this sort of transportation were called "rolling roads." To aid the commerce of Joppa all debtors paying their debts in tobacco in the town were allowed a reduction of 10 per cent. Joppa became a port of entry and had a considerable trade with Europe and tho West Indies.

Scharf's History ot Maryland states that according to tradition a vessel of war was built there for the American Revolution. The ancient town dwindled before the advanoe of Baltimore, and few marks are lelt of itsonco flourishing site. With the decay of Joppa and the openlntr or streets in Baltimore the usefulness of tho old Joppa road dwindled. The road started on what was formerly culled French (now Front) street and ran northeasterly to Spring street, where there was a bend to tho southeast which was the course ot the road to Broadway, from which street it proceeded in an easterly direction. Different portions of it were clo-ed at various XI mes.

The vacant space on Broadway was a little over 48 foot wide by 110 feet deep, and long resisted tho inarch of Improvement. Tho houses which Mr. Benesch Is erecting on it he Intends as gifts to his two sons und bis daughter, who are ull married. A tiuali portion of the original road may Still be seen south of Monument street, between Forrest and Elisor streets. Tobauco lor Holland.

WILL COST AROUT $20,000. An Estimate for Ke-i ecting the Old Record Office Huilding. Mr. Jobn Trainor, one of the purchasers or the buildings oa the new courthouse site, and who is now engaged in removing them, estimates that the stone buildini? formerly occupied by tho record office and the Superior )iut can be re-erected for SO.OJJ, after It has been taken down. This estimate includes tho cost of altering the interior arrangements of the building to make it suitable for any purpose for which it may bo desired and also the purchase of new bricks in place of tboi that form the present, lining of the stoe walls.

Besides tbe negotiations for the purchase of the building as a courthouse for La Plata, Charles county, referred to in The Sun recently, Mr. Trainor has also received let-lers of inquiry concerning it from two other counties. The demolition of the courthouse on Calvert street and the Imperial Hotel adjoining is proceeding rapidly under tbe efforts of a large force of workmen. The old Masonic Temple, on St, Paul street, will he the next building attacked, the record office being left until the last. In tearing down the old courthouse it was discovered that the heavy be.itns which supported the floor of the Superior Courtroom and the ceiling of the Criminal Courtroom had rotted at the ends to such an extent that the wood crumbled at tho touch.

Their condition was such that they were liable to give way at any time, in Mr. Trainor's opinion, without warning, and he thinks It surprising that the large crowds which frequently assembled in tbo Superior Court had not caused a catastrophe. The ola material of the structures is sold about as fast as taken down, and will net a haudsome profit to tbe purchasers, after. deducting the $5,090 lid tor tbe buildings and about SSO.OOO for tearing them down. A million and a half ot the old bricks have already been Eold.

JIanv Applications for Pardons. In the last few weeks an unusually large number of applications for the pardon of prisoners in the Maryland penitentiary have been filed with Governor Brown. The time taken up by the petitioners fo such pardous in presenting their views to the Governor has sodelus'el the regular business of the executive department, he says, that he has determined that for the few remaining months of his term he will no! consider any further applications except in cases where the preservation of the citizenship of a prisoner is involved or extreme conditions call for prompt action. Referring to the many applications, the Governor says it has been the experience of himself and previous Executives to he overrun wUh pardo-i applications as their terms were drawing to a close, and he has decided to file ail that may be presente 1 in the next tew months, as well as a number already on band, for consideration by his successor. "The Ideal City." In a letter to Major George C.

Wedderburn in reference to the Baltimore Exposition project Rev. J. Addison Smith, pastor of Aisquith Street Presbyterian Church, writes in part: ''Taken all in all, Baltimore is the ideal city of the United States. A culture gentleman who won the honors of bis colieee in this country and was graduated at two of tbe universities of Europe gave expression to this sentiment, and declared, after extended travel abroad, that ho would rather live in Baltimore than any other city in the world. This is high praise for the Monumental City, but she richly deserves it.

After travel on four continents out of the five I regard Baltimore as the queen city of this planet." A Patrolman Exonerated.

Recent decisions of the courts of Pennsylvania and Maryland are of interest in defining the rights of rapid-transit railway companies and of those who drive ulong the Streets. In Pennsylvania it has been held that It is not negligence in itself for a person to drive along tho left-band truck of a street railway.

The court decided thut in such a case It would be negligence lor which tho company would bo answerable if the gripman recklessly ran at a hiirh rate of speed when the probable consequence was a collision. It has also been held In Pennsylvania that it is the duty of tho railway companies to exercise such watchful care as will prevent accidents or injuries to persons who. without negligence on their own part, may not at the moment be able to get out of tho way of a car. Tho companies, according to the court, have no exclusive right to tho highways upon which they are permitted to run their cars, or even to the use of their own tracks, the construction of the track and the form of the rail being with a view to a common use. The car has tho right of wav, but the driver of a wasron is uot a trespasser because he tuny be upon the truck.

Iu the case of Theodore Cooke against the Traction Company, decided on tho 1st of lust March, the Cou-t of Appeals of Maryland held that a citizen has the same privilege to uso the streets for traveling that a street rail way company has for propelling its curs on them. The court also held that a street railway company, apart from its Irar.chise, has no right to tho use of the streets superior in any degree to that possessed by tbo humblest individual, and the franchise in no way exempts the company from nn imperative obligation to exerctso proper care to avoid injuring persons who have un equal right to the use of the streets.
