Company: In Reply to an Order of the House Its great length, comparatively level engineering features and discretion to impose remunerative rates upon short dis tances, have made it profitable to its shareholders, whilst the short line, very high grades, involving great expense in operating, and a strict adherence to the letter of its' corporate powers, have been attended with the very reverse results on the part of this railroad company. To the further question of your Honorable Body, as to the rates of wharfage charged upon the coal at Cumberland, this company respond that the matter referred to is under the con trol of the Potomac Wharf Association, a distinct corpo ration of the State, which fixes the charge per ton from time to time, at its discretion.
