Up6nS--'General Belialfa Notes.
The Bellaire saloon keepers held a
meeting yesterday to receive
the report of the decision of
the Wheeling brewers in regard
to the local saloon keepers at bell
! alre who have not Joined the organ
lzation and have not been observing
the rules adopted by the uniol saloon
keepers. Since the new revenue law
went into effect and the price of beer
was raised the saloon keepers adopt
ed rule making the glasses smaller
| and agreeing not to sell GROWERS. :"
This rule has been generally observed
except by few saloon keepers, who
have continued to sell according to the
measure, and consequently have been
doing rushing business. Unable to
get these few saloonists to join the
union the organized saloon keepers
appealed to the Wheeling brewers for
aid and asked the brewers to
either sell according to the standard
measure or else refuse to sell to them.
The union saloonists have notified the
brewers that If they do not compel
these outside saloon keepers to come
to time that they will patronize for
eign brewers. The Wheeling brew
ers were to have given an answer
yesterday, but asked for an extension
OF time until next week.
