Chestertown sees two rival trolley proposals with county officials pressed for rights of way and hefty forfeiture offers. Hope H. Barrell and John D.

The piece also covers political bids for Congress, Frostburg State Normal opening with a model school, tariff debate, and a shipboard wireless telegraph plan by the Navy.
