Baltimore and Ocean City Railway Bid Denied by Utilities Board
The Baltimore and Ocean City Railway Company’s plan to issue 119300 dollars in stock and bonds to finance the Baltimore and Washington Transit Company was rejected by the utilities commission. The decision hinges on the Maryland company’s status as a foreign corporation beyond the commission’s jurisdiction, shifting the fight to the District Supreme Court to ratify a transit sale and continue the reorganization plan extending Takoma Park to the Seventh Day Adventists' sanitarium. Local opposition warned that court approval could trigger charter revocation penalties for the transit line.
