FIGHT OVER GAS MAINS.
Rival Gangs of WOrkmen Struggle for
Possession of Trench.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
BEDFORD, Ind, June 14-There is a
sharp fight in progress between Moses F.
Dunn and the Bedford Gas Company of
this city. The company began the laying
of seven miles of gas mains about a month
ago and had proceeded with its work with
out interruption up to last night, when 1t
was engaged in putting down the mains in
front OF MIR. Dunn'S property, on the north
side of the square. Dunn hired men at the
rate of 81 an hour to tear out the pipe and
they were busily engaged at the work when
the gas company force was hurried to the
scene of the trouble and proceeded to refill
the trench as fasI as 1t was emptied by the
opposition party.
Excitement ran high and by 10 o'clock
several hundred people had gathered to
watch the night, which lasted until about IL
o'clock. Both parties worked hard, but the
men were good humored. The Dunn force
was making rapid Roadway in getting up
the pipe before the gas men arrived in suf-
ficient force, and TO delay the work as
much as possible the gas men brought a
water hose 10 their aid, turning il on the
Dunn men at work in the trenches These
work and he would advance their pay to 81
an hour.
Mr.. Dunn who is one of the best known
lawyers in Indiana, has his Office in the
building in front of which the disputed
right to lay the gas mains arose and di-
rected his men from the window above. The
the pipes out until they were crowded out
by the gas men who arrived in sufficient
force 10 Outnumber them five to one. The
gas men, after getting control of the situa-
ton. proceeded TO refill the ditch and re-
manned there all night and the gas COM
pany still retains possession to-day
Mr.. Dunn declares that in placing this
main the gas company, which is a private
corporation, Is trespassing on the rights of
the property holders. and that there is no
law that gives il this right but he says
that If it were the city of Bedford that
was putting in the plant, then there could
be no question as 10 its right to do so. The
gas company. which also is the owner OF
the electric light plant and the Bedford
Hot Water Light and Heating Company.
has franchise from the city 10 put in the
gas plant and lay the mains. and there is
no question that the courts viii have 10 de-
eide the matter. as both sides 10 the contest
are determined and amply able 10 fight il
out in the courts.
The police were on the scene but made
no effort 10 interfere and let the men on
both sidos have their own way, as they
were in good humor and were making big
wa COS for their trouble
