I want to see the road go to a buyer who will pay a fair price and agree that there shall be no discrimination against this city. My client would be willing to enter into an arrangement by which the purchaser would agree not to discriminate against the city, and I think that such an agreement could be made." Mr. Elliott seemed inclined to think that It would be no easy matter to draw up a contract by which Baltimore's future trade would be absolutely protected by preventing the turning over of the Western Maryland to a corporation which might want the road simply to head off competition.

This Is how it happened: On Tuesday morning Mrs. Pentz looked out of the second-story window of her home In response to the ringing of the doorbell, and saw three little Italian boys who frequently visit the neighborhood to sell bananas and oranges. The boys were told that none of their fruit was wanted, but as they continued talking Mrs.

Pentz looked out again to ascertain what they were doing. Then she saw one of the boys display a watch. From the actions of the youngsters, Mrs. Pentz surmised that the watch was a recent acquisition, and she began to question the boys about They did not answer any questions, but left hurriedly. Then Mrs.

Pentz's suspicions were aroused, and she consulted the "Lost and Found" column of The Sun. There she saw an advertisement, the description in which corresponded with the timepiece the boys bad exhibited, and Mrs. Pentz concluded to hunt up the advertiser. At Mr. Young's house Mrs.

Pentz learned that the boys had just been seen In that neighborhood, and she encountered them again on Mount street, near Saratoga. The boys at first denied nil knowledge of the watch, but finally admitted that of them had found It.

He then took off his cocked hat and proposed three cheers for the Kaiser, which were given by officers, crew and Just then the saluting battery of two guns on the port and starboard quarters began to belch a national salute In honor of the Kaiser, and the reverberations Of the first discharge were still echoing over the water when the battery at Fort McHenry responded. The salutes alternated, and when one battery bad finished the other had but one more gun to load and charge and fire.

Then the ship was given over to festivities. Kegs of good Baltimore beer were rolled up the port gangway or carried on the broad shoulders of the sailors, and soon It became the part of the generous meal to which the crew sat down, while the officers of different parts of the ship drank their own toast, "Hoch der Kaiser."

At Pier 9, Locust Point, the North German Lloyd steamer Weimar was decorated from trucks to rail, and the Hamburg-American steamer Georgia carried all her bunting until she backed ont from Canton and began her trip to Genoa, Italy.

An ordinance was Introduced authorizing the Mayor to sell all the city's interests in the Western Maryland Railroad to Mr. Granville Lindsay, treasurer of the Union Savings Bank and of the People's Trust Company, for 112,000,000.

The Committee on City Passenger Railways reported favorably In the First Branch on Mr. Kelley's ordinance authorizing the United Railways to construct curves and extensions, and against Mr. Brown's amendment requiring as a condition of the granting of the privileges that the company agree that the easement Is taxable as real estate. The Branch refused to send the unfavorable report to the Board of Estimates, as desired by Mr. Brown.

The Mayor's message was received In both branches. The First Branch passed the resolution to take steps toward opening Postofflce avenue. Gen. Felix Agnus and Harry S. Cu minings, colored, were confirmed as managers of the Colored House of Reformation.

The resolution for this committee provided that it should consist of the President and three members of each branch. This committee was appointed yesterday. President Sproesser, the First Branch, named Messrs. Timanus, Bell and McMahon as the other members of that branch. President Williams, of the Second Branch, named Messrs.

Dieter, Lindeman and Smith as the other members of that branch. Mr. Gnyton, who Is a member of the Council Legislative Committee, stated last night that he would bring up at the next meeting of that committee a. proposition to endeavor to have amended the bill authorizing the conversion of the railroad's Indebtedness to the city into common and preferred stock, according to the plan of the city directors. The amendment which Mr.

Guyton desires la to make the conversion dependent upon an agreement that the city's stock shall not be sold until the question of a sale is referred to the voters of Baltimore.

What Mr. Llndsar Says. Mr. Granville5 Lindsay when asked by a reporter of The Sex last night at his home, 137 Jackssn Place, to tell something about his plans, said he was not prepared to given out anything yet, but would probably have something today. Mr.

Lindsay was asked whether or not he was, as a citizen, favorable to the sale of the road. He replied: "That Is a question for the City Council to decide and It Is a hard question to decide. No, I have never particularly studied the question of the sale and It is a matter for the Council to decide." Mr. Lindsay was then asked why, If he thought that the expediency of a sale is an open question, and he was not certain whether or not he wanted to see the city dispose of its holdings, he should be willing to figure as a purchaser. Mr.

Lindsay replied: "Yes, I am In favor of the sale of the road to someone who will develop It and take advantage of its charter to build to tidewater. It is at present paying high charges for a short distance and I think this should be avoided." Mr. Lindsay denied that the ordinance In which he figufes is Inspired by the Ham-bletcns. Mr. Elliott's Statement.

Mr. Thomas Ireland Elliott, who prepared the ordinance which names Mr. Lindsay as the ostensible purchaser, also denied that the Hambletons were his principals. He was asked if be represented the Pennsylvania, and replied, emphatically, that he did not. When asked whether or not -his real principal is 'the Wabash system he declined to answer, saying that if he continued to enter denials it would be easy for the reporter to arrive at the chaser by a process of elimination.

Mr. Elliott continued: "As a citizen of Baltimore I wonld not like to see the Western Maryland railroad sold to any man or set of men who would take advantage of the opportunity to In REPLY TO CONGRATULATIONS Gov.

In accepting I do so with the hope that I may be able to render some service to my State.

And to the consideration of measures of national import I shall not forget that the people of Maryland expect their representatives in Congress to support only those measures which will tend to advance the prosperity of the nation. Mr. Chairman, I am reminded by you that the committee appointed by the two Houses of the General Assembly is composed of members of both of the great parties of this State. It is in parties that the security of our State and national affairs rests. As sharp as are our rivalries, when a contest is over we all graciously submit.

For the fifth ime in succession my political Mends and associates in the Legislature have supported me for United States Senator. To them my debt of gratitude is supreme. Governed always by the cardinal principles of the party to which I belong, it will be a pleasure as well as a duty for me on all occasions to represent tho whole people. And our honorable opponents in party contests must always feel that they have the right to come to me as freely as if we were members of the same party, and they will find in the future, in the past, an earnest desire on my part to give them as cordial a reception and accord their suggestions as careful consideration as those coming from members of my own political household. Gentlemen, I again thank you for the kindly manner in which you have performed your duty, and at an early day I shall formally communicate in writing, through you.

to the General Assembly my acceptance of the high trust which has been conferred upon me. Governor Smith Speaks. The Senator's speech was received with much applause.

I feel that the members of the Legislature are to be congratulated upon the work they have accomplished in giving the people of this State a man so well qualified with ability and experience to fill the great office. I feel that there is no man in the State so well fitted to grapple with State and national legislation as the man whom the Legislature has seen proper to choose, and if the gentlemen here of different political faith will pardon me I want to congratulate my party upon the man it has chosen. I want to congratulate the people of Maryland on choosing a man whose personality and ability are second to none, whose ability has been recognized by the entire nation and whose services to his country are appreciated throughout this broad land. I want to congratulate the Senator upon the fact that he is the only one who has beer? sent by Maryland to the Senate four times, an honor which could be obtained only by winning the confidence and love of all of his constituents, and all the people of the State can rejoice and offer congratulations.

The First Branch of the City Council last evening made the important and highly interesting distinction that the quasi taxation of easements, which In the case of the Fentress and Medairy "heat and cold" ordinance went through without much demur.

Is Impracticable and Illegal" when It applies to the United Railways and Electric Company. General Manager House, of the railway company, was present. The Committee on City Passenger Railways reported favorably on Mr. Kelley's ordinance authorizing the United Railways and Electric Railway to construct curves and extend and connect its lines at various points In the city, and accompanied this report with a supplemental one unfavorable to Mr. Brown's amendment requiring, as a condition to the granting of the franchise, that the railway company agree that the easement is taxable as real estate, or, if the courts decide against the legality of such taxation, that the company will pay an amount equal to the tax if such tax were legal.

The amendment Is exactly the same as the one which the Board of Estimates, at Mr. Brown's Instance, made to the Fentress and Medairy ordinance. Mr. Brown wanted the supplementary report sent to the Board of Estimates, that the latter might have the whole history of the ordinance before it. President Sproesser, however, ruled that the Board of Estimates had nothing to do with an unfavorable report and Mr.

Brown appealed from the ruling. AH the support he received, however, was from Messrs. Regester, Marine and Kalb. Mr. McMahon was absent and all the other members voted to sustain the decision.

Then Mr. Gephart. to pour oil on the troubled waters, moved to send the supplementary report to the Board of Estimates out of courtesy to Mr. Brown. Mr.

Affel-der opposed the motion, holding that it might establish a bad precedent. The motion was lost by 12 to 11, the vote being as follows: Yeas Navs Sproesser, Greene, Touchton, Miller, Janetzke, Gebelein, 8tuckert. Parker, McOintock, Timanus, Regester, Affelder. Brown, Bell, Gephart, Watty, Ulrica. Keller, Kalb, Marine, Hoffman.

Hoffmeister, Heintzeman. Mr. Heintzeman had voted "yea," but changed his vote before the result was announced, thereby defeating the motion. The Hospital Bill. Just after this Mr.

Brown tried to get even with Mr. Affelder, and the latter was considerably worried by his opposition for a long time. An invitation had been sent to the Council by the city delegation at Annapolis to attend the hearing today on the Broening Hospital bill, and Mr. Affelder wanted the Council Legislative Committee instructed to go to Annapolis to put in a good word for the bilL He asked for a suspension of the rules to introduce such a resolution, but Mr. Regester argued that as the Second Branch had already adjourned nothing could be accomplished by passing the resolution, and moved to lay It on the table, but the motion was lost.

The motion to suspend the rules resulted in 16 yeas to 7 nays, at which Mr. Affelder looked pleased, but his face was a study when" Mr. Brown asked if it did not require a three-fourths vote to suspend the rules, and when President Sproesser, after reading the rules, announced that Mr. Brown was right. Motions to suspend in such cases usually go through without much attention being paid to the number of votes, so long as there seems to be a majority in favor of them; 60 that Mr.

Brown's question was a distinct surprise to many of the members. There was a long discussion as to the nature of the rule and whether It really applied in this case, until finally Mr. Marine, to cut the matter short and in the interest of harmony, as he said, moved to reconsider the vote on the motion to suspend, and when this was done Mr. Affelder withdrew his previous resolution, which would have had to pass both branches, and substituted one which would only have to pass the First Branch. Here he found Mr.

Brown in his way again. Mr. Brown raised the point that one branch could not instruct a joint committee of both branches and that such a resolution could not, properly be considered. He demanded that President Sproesser put the question of consideration to the branch, which the President refused to do, and Mr. Affelder's resolution flnay went through.

The whole matter seemed more of a test as to the attitude of the branch to the Broening bill than anything else. Mr. Brown then asked the branch to withdraw his resolution requesting information of the United Railways and Electric Company in regard to the exemption of its annex line from the park tax from the railway committee, but Mr. Affelder moved to adjourn, the motion being carried. The Mayor's Menage.

The Mayor's annual message, a review of which will be found in another column of The Stjx, was sent to the City Council last evening. In the First Branch the members listened in silence to the note accompanying the report, and no word was said about reading the report Itself or making any disposition of It whatever. In the Second Branch Mr. Lindeman offered a motion to dispense with reading It. Opening Gf Postofflce Avenue.

The First Branch passed Mr. Timanus resolution to take steps toward opening Postofflce avenue through the Gunther Building, provided the Government buys the Peabody Building, and Mr. Timanus wanted the Council to meet again tomorrow night, that the Second Branch might act on it- He said afterward, however, that he had understood that the Second Branch had passed it under a suspension of the rules. But this proved to be not the case, which he did not learn until the Second Branch had adjourned. He, however, secured the promise of all of the Second Branch members to vote for the resolution.

Manager Confirmed. -With the help of Mr. Lindeman, Democrat, the Republicans in the Second Branch succeeded in passing the ordinance sent to the Council by Mayor Hayes naming Gen. Felix Agnus and Harry S. Cummings, colored, as managers of the Colored House of Reformation.

The other four Democratic members of the branch voted against the ordinance because of their opposition to Cummings. It passed by the vote of 5 to 4. Prince Henry Strikes Another Snag. The resolution passed by the First Branch Inviting Prince Henry of Prussia to visit Baltimore was laid over in the Second Branch in order that it may be amended. The resolution was on its final passage when Major Venahle called attention to the fact that It erroneously recited that Prince Henry Is to visit the United States to be present at the launching of Emperor William's yacht, "which is to be called Alice In honor of President Roosevelt's daughter." Major Venable had previously moved to lay the ordinance on the table, because It has been announced that Prince Henry would not visit Baltimore, but he withdrew the motion when other members wanted to pass the invitation as a matter of courtesy.

Favorable To Passageway. A resolution authorizing the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company to construct a passageway over Bank lane connecting the sixth floor of its central building, corner Baltimore and Calvert streets, with the seventh floor of the Equitable Building, corner Fayette and Calvert streets, was reported favorably by the Committee on Highways. The resolution names $100 as the price to be paid for the franchise. It was referred to the Board of Estimates. Fort McHenry For A Park.

Under a suspension of the rules the Second Branch passed the First Branch resolution requesting the Maryland representatives in Congress to have a bill speedily passed directing the Secretary of War to tnrn over Fort McHenry to the city for a public park, with the recommendation that it be continued as a military post. To Meet Again Next Monday. The City Council will meet next Monday afternoon, Police Commissioners Are Running Short Of Probationers. The Police Board yesterday communicated with the Board of Police Examiners suggesting that it arrange for another examination of probationary patrolmen who desire to become eligible for promotion to regulars. Only two names" remain on the eligible list now in possession of the Police Board and they will probably be taken off by promotion.

Their salary Is $12 per week and that of a regular patrolman $18. The board yesterday made the following promotions: Patrolman James C.Baker, to be turnkey at the Northern Police Station, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Turnkey Martin Manger; probationary patrolmen to be regulars, Joseph D.
