Big Electric
Line Schened.
Will Connect cIarksburg to Fair.
mont, Morgantown and King
wood.

An electric railroad to connect the
cities Of Morgantown, Fairmont,
Clarksburg, Grafton, Kingwood and
Morgantown is planned by the Nor
gantown Electric Light and Power
Company, in connection with the
companies OF the adjoining towns,
says the Plttsburg Times.
Mr.. Glasscock, member Of the
company, was seen in regard to this
report Frieay. He has no doubt
that Morgantown will be connected
with Falrmont and Clarksburg by
trolley line in the near future, and
eventually with the towns on the
north Of us and with Pittsburg.
The Morgantown Electric Light and
Power company was chartered some
months ago, but not until recently did
it develop what the charter was in
tended for. The company, it is said,
will not alone build a trolley line but
will also eventually absorb all of the
electric lighting Interests in that sec
ton of West Virginia, including those
at Fairmont, Grafton and Clarksburg,
all of which points and intermediate
towns wilalso be connected by troll
ley.
Work on the street railway will be
commenced as soon as possible after
the power plant is located at Morgan
town. Mr.. Glasscock states that the
company will in good faith CARRY out
the purposes for which 1t was charter
ed, and that it has no connection with
any other company either north or
south.

tween miners and strikers and arrived
from Grafton on No. /, fast mail
about 1870 O'Clock. The train had
Just pulled outand the deputy started
from the platform to enter the COM
pany's store, when three shots were
fred at him from a clump Of trees
about 100 feet away on the opposite
side of the railway track. Ofe ball
from % calibre Winchester rife
crashed through a window OF the
store scarcely foot above Jackson's
head, while another pierced the wood
work above the door. A 30 caltbre
reyolver.bullet fired at the same time
buried its.lf in a door six feet away.
D. s. Marshal @. d. Elliott, With sew
eral special deputies, went to Rose

senond floor OF the building, but had
penetrated the casing and wall of the
building, into the bed on which the
manager slept.
The other men arrested were Hun
parian brothers named Louis and
