PEDDLERS' LICENSE FEES.
Conflict Between the State Law and
City License.

City License.
Some confusion has been occasioned
by the conflicting laws in reference to
peddlerS' license fees
The City Council recently adopted an
ordinance, placing the fee at 500; the
State law makes it $500, and the confu-
sion arises from the conflict of the laws.
a number of peddlers secured the 500
license, but some of them declare that
they cannot afford to pay the additional
$780, and under the State law they cannot
prosecute their business under the city
ordinance.
Several of the peddlera called on the
Mayor yesterday morning in reference to
the matter. The Mayor said he would
assisi them all he could. He thought
the City Council would probably be adj
vised by the City Attorney to allow the
refunded OF the aI00 Tee to those who did
not care to continue in business by pay
ing the additional $500.

a railroad from Roanoke to Fincastle
seems now to be more than long de-
layed reality, or a baseless dream. For
years Fincaste, the pretty little county
seat of Eotetourt, has sat amongst the
hills, less than ten miles from both the
Chesapeake and Ohio and the Shenan-
doah Valley Division of the Norfolk and
Western. Her people have wanted q
railroad above all else, and when during
the boom days less than year ago.
work on line from the Norfolk and
Western was rushed forward for several
months with great carnestness. Then
the boom collapsed. So did the
railroad. Now prominent men of
means of Botetourt and Roanoke City
are actively d work to build a road from
Roanoke to Fincastle, or from some point
in the Shenandoah Valley to Fincastle.
Mr. Lucien B. Peck, OF Botetourt, is ac-
lively at work in the interest of the new
ENTERPRISE.

There was fresh revival yesterday of
the rtlmor of the double tracking of the

the company contemplates putting down
the double track, although it may not
be undertaken for some time. The cX-
tensive sidinSS on the Chesapeake and

Chinese claims were again the order
of the day before the Fire Claims Com.
mission yesterday. Quick dispatch
was the marked feature OF the pro
ceedings- The claimants having been
sworn in patches at the outset. uni
form set OF questions was asked them
as each was called up. Where the
claimant was bright and candid. a sin
gle examination often took less than
a minute. Now and then stupid. or
maybe disingenuous fellow. would
cause considerable expenditure of
time and trouble. Then there was the
man whose dialect apparently did not
jibe with the vernacular Of Interpreter
Willie Crawford, when all the pumping
plant of the court would have TO be put
in operation.
At the close of the days session

called remained to be examined.
