Bridgeport Manufacturer Pays Dearly For Reckless Driving-FindsThat Fairfield Fines and Costs
 Come High.
FAIRFIELD

Fairfield, July 29-Sylvanus D
 Locke, secretary and treasurer of tht
 Locke Steel Belt O., of Bridgeport
 shelled out s170 to Justice Bacor Waken1an in the latter's court, Friday
 afternoon. and received 29- cents ir | Change. Locke was before the court on three charges, reckless driving of
 his automobile in Stratfield road on Wednesday evening, July. "A; failure
 to have auto lights lighted, and aban-
 doning an injured person without
 waiting to give information as to his identity. Locke wa1s found guilty on on the third. There were witnesses l aplenty who testified that lights were
 wanting on Locke's car, while the same witnesses saved him on the third charge, for several of them stated that Locke did stop his car and ddd Locke was fined $10O and costs, and on the second count $25 and costs. The costs came to $44.71, bringing his debt to the State up to $169.71. Locke might have been fined more only the law sets a limit on the fine imposed the fine and costs brings the criminal case against Locke to a close, but it is quite sure that, Miles Moon, Mrs. Moon and M. s. Schibner will bring civil suits against him. These were the three who were pitched into the roadway when Locke's car ran them down in their team Wednesday even ing. But for the fact that the back of their carriage held several bags of feed the injuries of the three might be more severe. The feed served as a bumper for the auto.

 The experiences of the Transconti- mental Alec along the route pursued. known as the Iowa Official Transcon- tinental Route, can never be repeat ed by any who may follow, because many of the bridges we crossed will this year be replaced by concrete structures, with few, if any, wooden affairs left by the end of next year. We rebuilt, replanked and reconstruct ed times almost too often to count. We strengthened worn flooring with blanks, supported weak stringers with boxes of soap from our load, and held in place rotted or washed out header beams with lotion jacks or blocks and tackle. In the trip across the state over 800 bridges were examined and no less than 100 were given some kind of attention. None of this would have been necessary with a touring car. But it must be remembered that weight was always against us.

STATE
LOSES SHARE
IN The CANAL


u the opinion of ]. f. McIndo, ma
jor of the corps of engineers at the
custom house at Portland, is correct,
the state when the federal govern
ment purchases the locks and canals
of the Portland Railway, Light &
Power company, will lose its 100000
interest in them.
Under the provisions of an act
passed in 1870, 1t was provided that
the state should have 10 per cent of
the tolls, and also be entitled to
100000 interest in the locks If it
took possession in 20 years. This it
has failed to do, and McIndoe now
gives 1t as his opinion that 1t has no
claim to the interest.
He says in his letter to the attor-
ney general in which he expresses
the opinion that the Portland Rail-
way Light G. Power company has
agreed to accept $375,0OO for the
locks and that as soon as the deeds
can be made out the federal govern
ment will assume possession.
The state board of canal commits
sioners have instructed the attorney
general to take whatever proceed
ings he may consider necessary to
protect the state.
