GENERAL ADVANCE EXPECTED.
Railroads to Boost Freight Rates on
Account of WAGE Increase.

Chicago, Sept. pa movement is
on foot by the railroads of the entire
country to bring about a general adj
vance in freight rates, the general rea-
son assigned being the big increase
in the wages of all classes of labor
and in the price of all material used
by the railroads A similar advance
was made one year ago for the same
reasons and went into effect Jan.
last At that time shippers generally
protested, and it is understood that
the various manufacturing and indus
trial associations will combine to pre-
vent further advances.
The trunk line association is said to
be planning for general increase in
rates amounting to about 10 per cent.
to become effective Jan 1 next Rail
road officials say that with the present
prices decreases in net revenues can
not be prevented unless freight rates
are advanced.

NOVEMBER FIRST
Date Set for the Completion of
Locks and Dams.

Fairmont and Morgantown viii be
Connected by Slack Water Earlier
Than at First Expected -t'oncreting
Begins on Dam ten at Morgantown.
Concreting has started on Luck ten
across the river from Morgautown.
There are l25 men at work and the
shifts are being worked night aud day.
The concrete in the big Golfer will all
be in place within short time and
another Golfer will be built at once to
close the remaining gap.
The gap to be filled in the dam
which Is now in place is 100 feet long
while that remaining after this is
done is IS feet.
E. Brown Baker who has been ia
Kentucky bidding on some work to
be done on the Kentucky river has re-
turned home. He was seen by this
paper this morning and gave the in
formation above.
He says that he will have al. his
work completed at both 10 and IL by
the first OF November and ready to
turn 1t over to the government.
Lock gates have been swung at Il
and but little paving remains to be
done until this lock shall be ready to
turn over. Most of the bank wofk
has been completed at 10 and the gap
between the ends of the dan wall is
all that engages attention.
A big pump has been installed to
keep the Golfer clear OF water which
gave some trouble at first and now
pumping has To be done but one fourth
of the time.
Captain freeman who is connected
with the work being done by T. A.
Gillespie was also seen but declined to
make any prediction as to when the
other four locks and dams would be
finished 1t is stated however that
they expect TO be done by the first of
November.
This of course depends somewhat
OF the weather but If normal coudi-
lions prevail the locks and dams ex-
tending slackwater from Morgantown
10 Fairmont will be ready for boats
at an early date after November FIRST.
The Fairmont Times will have to take
back some Of the claims it has made
in this connection If the WORK goes
like the contractors hope 1t will go.

WHAT WAS DONE
At The Fairmont City Council
Meeting
When the Fairmont Morgantomn and
Cheat River trolley Franchise Was
Being Considered-W What the Com
pany Will Have to do to Hold the
Franchise.


Franchise.
The Fairmont, Morgantown and
Cheat River Electric Railway Com
pany was given its franchise at the
meeting of the Fairmont city coun
bill last night, saws the Falrmont
Tines. The road, is to enter the
city one of two ways either through
private property from Ogden avenue
to B:idge street, just, east of the
Watson hotel, and there to stop on
Bridge street; or from Quincy street
down Main street to The Watson
hotel, there to turn the corner and
stop on Bridge street III front of the
hotel If the Main street route is
used the tracks of the company will
have to rest on the side OF the street,
as the Fairmont and Glarksburg
Traction Company 5 franchise gives
that company the right to use the
middle of the street.
The Cheat River company may
make its choice of the two ways, but
can only use one.
Attorney Harry Shaw and Mr.
John hillips appeared at the meet
ing and urged the suit OF the Cheat
River people. Attorney George A
exander represented the Fairmont
and Clark sburg company. He made
speech aud suggested that If the
Cheat River people could make some
arrangements with the Fairmont
company to enter the city on its
lines it would be better, and he
thought such arrangements could
be made. This was not TO the
liking Of the Cheat River folks
Councilman George Lilly suggest
ed two amendments ought to be
made to the ordinance. One was to
the effect that the company is to
provide every car with tenders at
each end, and the other was that
any other company that may in the
future get franchise will have the
right to cross the tracks of the
Cheat River company. These sug
gestions were incorporated in the
ordinance. The franchise question
was brought hp by Councilman Hay
mond, of the ordinance committee,
who took the lead at the meeting
and forced business along at good
rate.
Mr.. Raymond read the ordinance
and st the end OF each section a
pause was made till the councilmen
were satisfied it was right. 1t took
about two hours to get the franchise
passed, The company must begin
the construction within six months
from date and complete within
eighteen months. All eouncilmen
voted IN favor Of the passage Of the
ordinance except Councilman Hutch
inson. All were present except
Messrs Crowl and DeBolt

Another delegation of glass work
ers arrived last night ON the six train
from Pittsbarg. They come from
Minotolo, New Jersey. where they have
been employed in non union bottle
factory.
No disturbance was noted when
the men arrived. They were accom-
panied by large party Of special Of
lieers who joined them at Pittsburg.
The strikers state that they can do
nothing as long as the injunction
granted by Judge Mason stands
against them.
Some Of the new workmen have
talked to the union men here and of
fers were made by them TO desert and
join the union. This the local union
men say was refused as the men are
not tumbler workers and it will he
six months before they can become Of
much assistance to the factory.
The men who came are quartared
at the boarding house OF Mrs. Moore
on the Avenue. They are expected
to go TO work on Monday.
Forty seven men came on the train.
Their arrival created great excitement
on the Avenue and in that section OF
town. There was however no demon
stration from any one.
1t cannot be learned how many OF
the party were guards nor how many
were ~orkmen. One of the
worknen states that there were six
teen workmen in the party.
The special officers with them pass
ed as glass workers until the train
reached Point Marion when they arm
ed themselves and prepared for expect.
ed trouble which did not mater
ialize
A letter was received several days
ago telling Of the expected arrival OF
these men. 1t was sent to Fed Bish-
op who at once notified his comrades
and counselled them against
throwing themselves liable To con-
tempt OF court by making any display
Of force or intimidation.
Charles A.. Goodwin addressed the
new men last night and stated TO
them that they would be protected
while here and that the powers Of his
Office would be invoked in case There
was any outbreak of any character
whatever.

Mans Big Show to Exhibit at Union
town.

The Walter L. Main big three
ring circus, excellent menagerie and
exciting roman hippodrome will be
at Uniontown on October 18th in all
its magnitude and glory. The Main
shows are we'll and most tavorablv
known, but when the Main shows
we know but few years ago are
compared to the present aggrega-
ton, it becomes evident that we
know the show only in its infancy
Year by year the show has been adj
ded to aud strengthened in every de
partment until now it is the largest
and best that visits this section Of
the country This year Mr.. Main
has under CONTRACT a company OF
performers that it is utterly impos
sibie to duplicate for merltorious
acting. In tact any act given under
the spacious tent with any other
show would he feature. All acts
with the Main show are features,
for were they not they would not be
with it. The riders, jockeys, aero
bats, tumblers, gymnasts, jugglers,
wire walkers, clowns and speciality
people are all head liners in the
ranks from which they were chosen.
So numerous are they that three
rings, elevated stage, spectacular
amphitheatre, aerial eonelave, sport
ing plaza, athletic field, race track,
hippodrome and college of FACET are
required to display their many &C
compllshments. Mr. Main has
always enjoyed the reputation Of
exhibiting only the very best, but
this season he has tar outdone any
of his previous efforts. The mena
gerie is the largest and most COM
plete ever assembled aad students
of natural history have pronounced
it the finest.
