Charleston, w. Va, Aug. 6.-Three
and one-half million dollars is the in
crease in the value of the oil and gas
companies classed as public service
corporations in West Virginia in 1912,
according to the valuations placed on
them by the Board of Public Works
for taxation purposes. AS compared
with 1911 there are but two companies
assessed that year that are not assess
ed this year, while the number of new
ones total is.
The total assessed valuation of these
oil and gas properties for 1912 is $S9,-
530,311 as against sS6,194, 233 for 1911,
or an increase of s3,33607S.
The biggest increases were in the
following: The United Fuel Gas Com
pany from s4,750.0O0 to 100000; the
Philadelphia Company of West Virgin
la, from s7.5OO,OOO to $S,5OO,OO0; the
Columbia and Gas Company. from 3d.
10000 TO $3,000,000; the Reserve Gas
from - 100000 to $4,000
the Fairmont Gas and Light Company
from S650.000 to S725,00
The greatest decreases are shown in
the following: Eureka Pipe Line
Company, from $22 900 to $4,000
000 the Manufacturers Light and
Heat Company of West Virginia, from
$2,500,OO0 to 100000; the Ohio Fuel
Oil Company, from $1,673,733 to ST.
601.611; the Pure Oil Company, from
Sl,5000 900 to S1,400000.
Private Car Line Companies.
The valuation of the private car
lines was so increased, the net being
s23,975. The total valuation in 1911
was s546,31S, while this year it is
s570,2SS. The increases were all small.
There is one less company this year,
cut the valuation is the same this
year as it was last year, but there is
slight increase in the Armour Car
lines and in the Maryland Steel Com

Gov. ciasscock Calls Out Local Militia
And Boys Leave For Paint
Greek Riots.

oA The boys Of Co. T., W. V. National
Guards arrived home Friday evening
al $50 from MT Gre.na, Pa, where
they spent ten days in camp And
they had hardly gotten settled back
into civilian life today when call to
arms comes from the Governor OF
West Virginia to 90 and help queli the
riots OF the striking miners In the
southern part Of the state.
AT 10 o'clock this morning Capt
George L. Viewer received a telegram
from Coy. Glasscock ordering his
company to leave by the first available
train for Paint Creek Junction.
Then all was hustle and hurry by
Capt Viewer, Lieut. G. Frank Whit
more and some of the non-commission-
ed officers to get word to the boys to
be ready to leave Martinsburg this
evening for the scene of the mining
hostilities. AS quite a few OF the boys
OF Co. f live in the country, and sew
eral of them as far away as Marlowe,
Falling Waters and down about Shep-
herdstown, while all the others we're
at work somewhere, 1t was a pretty
difficult matter to get word to them.
But by the middle Of the afternoon
the soldier BOYS were nearly all round
ed up. Then, too, transportation ar
rangements had to be made.
This evening at 6.30 Co. f, in com
mand OF Capt Viewer and LIST Lieut.,
sWhitmore, with some thirty-five uni
formed men and q half dozen young
civilians who will be enlisted later,
will leave on b. & o. train No. is for

Washington tonight of lilo over the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, reach

about IL O'Clock. From that point they
will be sent to the scene of the riots
some distance away, reporting to Maj
Pratt in command.
The company leaves with 1900
rounds of ball cartridges and otherwise
fully equipped for warfare, It is said
HpNtNtI, lDdl inc StllhthB uIiltis are

B. 30 MAKES MORE
DRY TERRITORY
Stops Selling Intoxcants Between
New York and Baltimore
This Territory Wet

Baltimore, Aug 3.--Ail routes to
Philadelphia and New York are dry
nov. The thirsty traveller must try
water or carry his own lrivate flask.
Following the lead of the Pennsyl-
yania Railroad Comrany the Balti-
more & Ohio has issued orders discoD
tinuing the sale OF Intoxicating liquors
in the dining cars of it's service be-
tween Baltimore and New York. Here
after those who are in the habit OF
"liquoring up" en- route from here 10
the big burg in New York State viii
be compelled to hold their desires IN
check or resort to the experient Of
carrying along their own little supply
of intoxicants.
For some time the Baltimore &
Ohio has been systematically cutting
out the sale of liquor ON it's trains.
Three years ago 1t put the ban on the
sale of liquors in the Pullman coaches
following a shooting ARRAY in which.
an irate Texan sought to avenge his
outraged dignity by taking a shot at
Pullman porter Until the most re-
cent order went out, however the
company continued to sell liquor with
meals in the dining cars.
The Company will continue to sell
intoxicants in diners on trains with
District of Columbia, West Virginia
and Ohio. Illinois has been prohibited
territory for a number of years.
