oy Acting Chairman West of the COM

%''i' hStNeill, VINO was unab BILE to be

Mr.. Eddy testified that IL was a fact
that more difficulty would be expert

Seek to Upset Sale.

Richmond, Va, Oct lon behalf
of J. p. Dowden, petitioner, George
Bryan, T. Ashby Wickham, and Mau-
rice Powers, today filed before the
State Corporation Commission a bill
seeking to upset the sale of the Sew
en- Pines division of the Old Virginia
Railway and Power Company to the
Richmond and Rappahannock Valley
Railway Company.
The case in brief, is a fight to pre-
vent the discontinuance of the use
of transfers by the patrons Of the
line. For many years the line was OPP
Grated and the patrons were given the
use of transfers to any part Of the
city on arriving at Twenty-ninth and
P STREETS, and the Clay street cars
gave transfers to the Seven Pines
line.
Recently when the sale Of the prop
erty was made the transfers were dis
continued, and the demand of straight
fares to and from the city to points
on the Seven Pines line was inaugu-
rated. Two fares were then demand
ed for the single fare heretofore in
vogue.
1t was said at the time that the road
was preparing to build the line to
the Rappahanock River, and surveys
are now being made to select the
best route.
The contest is as to whether the
City Council had the right to dis
solve or to change the charter grant
ed by the General Assembly for the
building Of the line. The commission
received the papers and set October
10Th as the time for hearing the COM
plant.
The people living along the Seven
Pines line are much exercised, and
they have employed counsel to fight
the case to the highest courts in the
State.

POTOMAC OYSTER ISSUE.
Conference in Washington Nearly
Ends in Bolt.

Clash which threatened to break up
the conference developed at the con-
ference in Washington yesterday be-
tween Marylanders, Virginians and
Federal government officials inter
rested in saving the Potomac river
oyster industry from destruction. The
Department of Agriculture experts
we're twice accused of bad faith in
dealing with the Potomac oysters and
twice they arose to leave the room.
Peacemakers each time rushed in
and smoothed the troubled waters and
in the end the conference resulted
in an agreement to dispatch hacte-
biologist and chemist from each state
to the oyster grounds for further in
vestigation. The United States au-
thorities will at the same time send a
corps Of chemists and psychologists
down the river for joint examina-
ton of the polluted waters and the
oysters feeding in them.
The meeting was called upon the
initiative of Governors Goldsbor-
ough, of Maryland, and Mann, of
Virginia. The advance report of the
Bureau of Chemistry, just made pub
lie by Secretary of Agriculture Will
son, showing that sewerage from
Washington and Alexandria have pol
luted the waters Of the Potomac river
and had contaminated the oyster
prompted the governors to take this
step.

FOUR KILLED BY CAVE.IN.
Negroes Meet Instant Death IN an
Excavation.

Richmond, Va, Oct. -Four men
were instantly killed and one was Ia
tally injured at $3.50 o'clock yesterday
evening by cave-in at an eXcaVa-
ton being made at Grace and Eighth
streets. The men were at work ~
feet below the level of the street,
when the Eighth street wall and side
walk, for a distance of Is feet broke
loose without a moments warning,
casting tons of dirt and concrete up
on the victims.
The dead are: Humphrey Seay, aged
AZ years; George Bowles, aged 25
years; Nip Cooper, aged So years;
Walker Langhorne, aged 90 years; all
colored and married They came from
Goochland county, Va.
Between ten and twenty children
were playing in the street, close to
the pavement, when the accident oc-
Cured. Their escape from injury
was miraculous, several being preci-
plated with the dirt.
The place where the cave-in occur
red was originally purchased for a
site for a theatre, but objections from
the members of St. Paurs Episcopal
church, the church of which Presl-
dent Davis heard of the evacuation of
Richmond, caused the promoters to
change their plans.
At Sis O'clock another large sec
ton of Eighth street caved in, cover
ing the bodies to greater depth.
No one was injured in the second cave
in.
