will he Allowed to Slumber.
Robert Bloom has directed Cox
aud Baker to bring suit against
Chief Price for $1,000 Tor damages.
The suit grows out of the assault
alleged to have been made on Bloom
by Price on Labor Day at Cascade
Park. Papers are being prepared
for the suit and it may be heard at
the February term of court.
The allegations have not been an
nounced but it is stated that it will
be alleged that Price assaulted
Bloom without proyoeation and
knocked him senseless. The injured
man did not recover from the effects
of the blow for several days. He
alleges that he lost time from his
work and that he has been incapaci.
tated from following his usual avo.
cation with any degree of certainty
since the affair.
1t is stated in this connection that
the plan of forcing the charges
against Price has been abandoned
These charges we're presented tc
city council aud a public trial asked
This the council refused to grant
They decided to have afiidavits sub
mitted and from these intended to
make their decision.
This plan did not meet the appro.
baton of those bringing the charges
and they have declined to file any
affidavits and will continue to refuse
to do so. AS an alternative they
have decided on the suit against
Price which is shortly to be brought.

Goal Owners Excited.

Owners of coal land ia the sta tie
are not safe if the decision of Judge
Kendall of FalrGont shall stand.
He held in recent case of damages
brought against the Fairmont Coal
company that it is not responsible
for damages for acts of their agen ts.
The agents had mined coal which
the company did not own. Kendall
held that the agents are the ones to
be sued and not the directors of the
company. Judge Mason was inter.
ested in the suit.

1t will be a glad day for this place
when the M. & X. extends to meet
the Wabash. We are not particular
in what direction it goes just so We
can get to the Wabash and get rates

also meet the Lake Erie before many
years. This latter system is coming
into West Virginia and will be an
other factor in the growth and pros

One of the members Of the Union
Utility company feels very much
aggrieyed over the attitude of the
people OF town toward that company.
He says that the company has spent
$4,000 in the town. 100000 of
this was spent in buying the water
and gas rights and the remainder
was exp nded on the street car line
He says that it will be impossible
to get any returns on their invest
ment for two years at least and may
be longer. They do not expect
returns from the street car line soon
but have built for the future and
for the benefit and upbuilding Of the
town.
On every hand they have met op-
position. They got The worst from
South Park The county court threw
them down on the west side in re-
ference to widening the road. They
got it in the neck from the same
source about the fills at the Walnut
street bridge. They are being held
up in South Morgantown by refrac-
tory property owners. And so on
and so forth.
On the other hand the patrons OF
the company think it is getting too
chcsty. They want them toIsign con
tracts which are distasteful to them
They have torn up streets and have
not fixed them as council thinks
they should be fixed They are act
ing as if they owned the town and
the fullness thereof, And so on and
so forth.
The truth of the matter is that
both sides may be little too "stren-
nous" They should understand
each other thoroughly and then
there will he no trouble. Ii the
company will take the public into
its confidence the public will do
what is fair
There Is no desire on the part of
any one to do the company any in
justice. And there is no intention
on the part of the public to allow
the company to do any injustice to
it.
1t will be well to consult and
modify the conditions as well as to
moliiy those who think they are
aggrievcd. There is no reason for
fussing when reasonable terms
are laid down. And no other terms
should be permitted tor an instant
If fighting will prevent them from
being carried out.

GOING NICELY.
Work on Wabash Doing better than it
has done for Long Time.

Progress on the Buckhannon and
Northern line has been more rapid in
the last ten days than at any time
since Rinehart and Deunis put their
first men on the new line. The tun-
mel at Paw Paw is now in the hill a
hundred feet or more at each end.
On the Jake's Run side the workmen
struck solid rock and had slow time
of it for a while, but they are now in
soft ledge of rocks and are blasting
along at surprising rate. Camps
are being put up as hurriedly as can
be done on the sixteen miles Of line
south of Moatsville, and the survey
ers are getting the route from there
to the junction with the West Virgin
ia Central In shape where it will be
quickly approved and quickly COM
menced on with pick and shovel.
1t is stated that fine grade has
been found from Moatsville to the
West Virginia Central junction, but
the exact route is not given out up to
this time.

PROJECT ABANDONED
No Line to Chancery Hill,o be
Built This Fall.
Land Owners would not Come up-Mr.
Mc6ara Quits-Had Subscribed
5000 TO Bridge-free Rights Of
Way Could not be Got FIRST West
Side Car Crs In barn.

The plan to extend the street car
line across the High street bridge
through Chancery Hill to the Oak
Grove Cemetery this fall has been
practically abandoned. The scheme
could not be carried through on &C
count of the failure of the property
owners to comply with the condi-
tions.
s. McGara who was endeavoring
to secure the necessary money and
rights OF ways has thrown up the
job and quit. He wrote a letter to
the u. Z. company in which he said
that his efforts to raise the $4,000,
and free rights of way for the line
had failed. The Chancery Hill Com
pany stated that it would cost $4,000
extra to strengthen the bridge for
the trolley line. They were willing
to give the subscribers half inter
est in the bridge and free street car
rights for $4,000. The matter of a
right of way through all the land
reaching to the cemetery was 10 be
determined later.
Mr.. McGara gave $4,000 The
Domain heirs refused TO sign the
papers granting free right of way
through their land. John Madigan
also withdrew his offer to subscribe
for bridge stock.
The Chancery Hill Company has
delayed the shipment of the iron
from the factory three weeks already
waiting the decision of the land
owners as whether it should be
strengthened or not for the trolley
cars. The bridge will now be ship
ped and put up at once.
The first car ON the West Side
line was run Saturday by MFR. Stur
giss and Mr.. Switzer. The track
was found to be perfectly smooth
and safe to the trestle, which is no
yet finished. The line is down al
the way TO Granville. Cars will b.
run in short time.
The summer cars were taken Il
the car barn Saturday evening. The
rails are laid across the bridge, anC
the trolley wire extends part of the
way across. The cars were pulled
| up Walnut street by horse power
and sent over the hill to the bridge
