GRAND JURY
MAY GET THEM
Tn Account OF the Delay in Giving
Alleged Gamblers a Trial
at Adamston.

The. trial of James Frazier and
eight other men at Adamston, who
were caught in an alleged gambling
house there Sunday night, when a
raid was made on it, promises to be
highly sensational and the affair Is
attracting much interest and caus-
ing much comment in that town.
Coming as it does while the grand
jury is in session, there is more or
less uneasiness on the part of some,
and others are inclined to the belief
that the grand jury itself will in
vestigate the matter. They were to
have been tried Tuesday night by
Mayor E. A. Grim, but thee was
postponed until Monday night, and
perhaps the grand jury will be over
by that time. 1t is stated that the
council there is taking deep and
active interest in the case, insisting
that the mayor shall give them the
limit, If they are found guilty, which
means heavy fines and jail sentences.

TRACTION TRAFFIC
WAS SUSPENDED
For Two Hours Wednesday Morning
BY Breaking Down of High
Pressure Line at Fairmont.

Street car traffic was entirely sus-
pended on all the lines here of the
Fairmont & Clarksburg Traction
Company Wednesday morning from
$40 to 1890 o'clock, on account of
the breaking down of the high pres

single car running here these two
hours and none on the line between
here and Fairmont, as the motor
power on these lines S furnished
by the high pressure current coming
from Fairmont, where the break oc-

convenience caused by the suspension
and the people generally we're i'm
pressed more fully of the usefulness
of the street car lines. The accident
and suspension were unavoidable.

started up and at 1890 o'clock be-
gan supplying motor power for the
local lines. But the interurban and

Cumberland has made application
to President Lawson for franchise
in the West Penn league. Since the
P. o. NJ. franchise there the people
have been trying to get berth in a,
sound organization and at one time
some of the baseball men there talk
ed Of starting a new league IN all
of the towns that made up the Creek
league sc..-sral years ago and adding
Fairmont and clarksburg in this
state. The project fell through with
however. and now they have made an
effort to get in the West Penn. ow-
ing to the distance from the other
towns in the circuit it is not likely
that they will be admitted. Presi-
dent Lawson stated several days ago
that he would like to have the Mary
land town in the league and that the
distance of the town from the Others,
in the circuit was the only thing that
would keep them out. !
