Arbitrat0rs Will Meet This Even.
Ing For Thai Purpose.
CASE or STEWART AGAINST CITY
Has Been Pending For the Past
Three Years. and Grew Out of
the Break In the Mains From
Springs to Pumping House.

The board of arbitration in the case
Of Mr.. j. William Stewart against
the corporation of Martinsburg, to
determine the amount of damages sus-
tanned by Mr.. Stewart as a result OF
number of breaks In the water mains
running from the Kilmer springs to
the city pumping station, will meet
this evening and adjudicate the mat
ter, and the result of the deliberations
will be reported to Mayor Harrison
and Mr.. Stewart tomorrow.
This board consists OF Mr.. George
IS. Roush, Mr.. James Fulk and Mr.. j..
Frank Foreman. One gentleman was
appointed by Mayor Harrison by in
struction of the council, one by Mr..
Stewart, and these two selected the
third.
AS stated previously in The Even
ing Journal, these gentlemen will ex-
anime into the claim for damages of
Mr.. Stewart against the corportion,
which claim grew out of conditions pre-
vailing along the line of the big water
mains. which run from the source Of
supply at the Kilmer springs to the
new pumping station, west of the city.
These mains were laid when the pre-
sent water system was constructed,
and it would seem that the work was
of very faulty character. Frequent
breaks at the joints were reported, and
the water overfiowed the land of Mr..
Stewart, through which the mains were
laid, and caused considerable damage.
Mr.. Stewart presented several claims
to the council, but no definite action
was taken until recently, when it was
agreed that the whole matter should
be given In charge of three arbitra-
tors, whose decision should be accept
ed by both parties to the controversy.
Mr.. Stewart placed his damages at
about $1,000 but fair and equitable
judgment will be rendered by the
board, which may be more or less, ac-
cording to their judgment.

burg. The contract price is s103,0n0.
Eight firms submitted bids. the bid of
Rodey & Miller being the lowest. The

terations to be made in the plans by
the engineers.
AT the meeting 1t was also decided
to increase the capital stock of tie
company from $4,000 to 100000. This
was made necessary by the increased
cost of construction and other details.
Attorney f. Vernon Aler. of this
city. the legal representative of the
company, who has attended to much
of the detail work in connection with
the project, stated that it is hoped and
expected to make substantial progress
in the actual work of construction
yet this fall
He also stated that there were some
matters in connection with the in
crease of the capital stock of the
company, and the placing of this stock
which are of private nature, but
which places the entire project in a
very favorable condition.
The meeting was largely attended,
and the officers of the company were
enthusiastic over the prospect of the
bpeedy construction of the work. 1t
is hoped to complete the entire work
next summer.

Mr.. Fred H. Baker, the well-known
North Queen street business man, was
the plaintiff in novel and interesting
suit. which was brought in Justice
Thompson's court against the Gabriel,
Aggeston Co., of New York, makers of
post cards. and which resulted in a
compromise that was a virtual victory
for Mr.. Baker.
Some tim1 ago Mr. Baker secured a
number of very interesting views of
Martinsburg and vicinity, which he
intended to use for post card purposes.
A representative of the New York post
card publishers came along, and Mr..
Baker entered into contract with
him to furnish him many thousand
cards of these views.
The agent took the photographs,
went down town and contracted with
another dealer for $4,000 post cards

SOFT COAL MAY GO UP HERE
PRICE TO DEALERS HAS BEEN
MATERIALLY ADVANCED.
One Dealer Says He Cannot See
How Local Men Will Be Able to
Continue Present Rate.

That the price of bituminous coal
in the Martinsburg market must be
shortly advanced is the opinion of a
well-known dealer, with whom a rep
resentative Of this paper was in con-
versation this afternoon. This dealer
who sells thousands of tons of coal
annually, declared that the price had
been recently advanced 81 per ton al
the mines, and that there was every
indication that II would go even high
er.
The freight on bituminous coal
ranges from $3.50 to $16O per ton to
Martinsburg, which makes the price
somewhat higher than at other point
The recent rise in the price of coal
has given the local dealers some con-
Germ, and it is altogether probable that
when their present supply is exhausted
they will be compelled to advance
prices.
The dealer above quoted stated that
it was not sure that an advance would
ensue, but declared that he did not
see how it could be avoided.

WILBUR MASON,
Chairman.
AS was stated recently in The Even-
ing Journal. Mr.. Ripple has secured a.
patent on dump wagon that seems
to be perfect in operation. The above
letter, from a firm of experts. would
indicate that he has something Of
value. but he is at present undecided
what course to pursue. 1t is probable,
however, that he will sell the patent
outright, if he gets reasonable price
for it.
