MAY PIPE GAS TO THIS CITY
RIGHT OF WAY THROUGH
MONTGOMERY OBTAINED.
Believed That the Standard Oil
Company Is Represented by
Promoters Of Project.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
ROCKVILLE. Md, September 16.-
Considerable interest has been aroused
in Montgomery county by the report that
the Standard Oil interests are going to
run a pipe line for natural gas through
the upper end of the county. leading
from the coal fields of West Virginia to
Baltimore, with a branch line to WASH
ington.
\ short time ago thirty-nine deeds
were placed on record by the clerk of
the circuit court here, conveying rights
of way across the northern section Of
Montgomery county, to lay and maintain
a pipe line for the transportation Of nat
ural gas or oil, and to erect a telegraph
or telephone line if it is found necessary.
The rights were conveyed to w. Ray
mond Cross, who is said to represent GER
tain capitalists in the coal regions OF
maintained as to who the real promoters
are. but it is generally believed that they
represent the Standard Oil Company. The
line will run from a point north of n.y.
attstown past Lewisdale and Damascus
to Howard county. 1t will extend about
nipe miles through Montgomery county.
From here it will lead direct to the out
skirts of the city Of Baltimore. 1t is said
that the promoters of the scheme will ask
the Maryland legislature for permission
to enter the city limits. 1t is reported
that the reason the line has been brought
SO far south instead of running direct to
Baltimore is for the purpose Of eventu
ally building branch line into Washing
ton.

NO CLUE YET DISCOVERED
MYSTERY OF MISS WEBER'S
DEATH REMAINS UNSoLVED,
Although No Theory Of Murder Can
Be Built Up, No Motive for
Suicide Is Known,

CANAL DOVER. Ohio. September 10
Although the officers and relatives investi-
eating the death of Miss Florence Weber,
whose body was found in the Tuscarawas
river yesterday, are unable to build I'D a
theory Of murder. they are equally at a
loss to find a motive for suicide
Today's probing brought no develop
ments. The girl, who was a telephone
operator. twenty years old, disappeared
from the home Of her uncle Monday night
after receiving a mysterious telephone
message. Nothing more was heard of her
until the body was found yesterday. Cor
oner Romig will make no post-mortem
examination until next week
No light has been shed upon the rumor
that Miss Weber was In company with an
unidentified woman the night she disap-
peared. Neither has anything more been
learned of the story of r.. j. Collier that
he saw a man and woman quarreling
upon the river bridge Monday night near
the point where the body was found
No letters or communications that
would tend to throw any light upon the
possible cause of her death, whether she
was murdered or committed suicide, have
been found. Coroner Romig says Miss
Weber was drowned. but the manner in
which she met her death is an open ques-
ton.

George A. Fritch. who is at liberty on
$4,000 remand bail pending police in
vestigation of his alleged connection
with the death Of Miss Mabel Millman

hour today and escorted around town

claimed to be a Chicago detective and
who was finally taken in charge by the
police and sent to St. Marys Hospital.
where his mental condition will be in
vestigated. He gave the name of John
NJ. Cody and said he was formerly a
deputy sheriff in this county
Dr. Fritch said that when the hack
called at his home a uniformed police
officer waited at the curb while the sup
posed detective went into the house and
told DR.. Fritch to prepare to go to Ann
ArbOr. Then began an aimless ride to
the Michigan Central depot, the union
depot and hotel where Cody had left
his overcoat
Disconnected talk about trains and troll
ley cars to Ann Arbor and about a tele-
graph message to the president of the
Wabash railroad finally showed the doc
tor that he was In the hands of an i'm
postor. and he appealed to a policema n
at the union depot. Meanwhile Cody ha d
induced DR.. Fritch to pay gao for
lunches and cab fare, on the pretext that
he had no funds except a check, which
he could not get cashed at that hour.

The several defendants are specifically
charged with selling in place of fresh but
