DEFEATED
Strong DanviIIe Team Did
The Y. M. c. A.

The Y. NJ. C. A. team journeyed to
Danville Friday to meet the strong
club there for which Tom Church and
Workman are doing the battery work.
1t was freely predicted that the local
boys would find their score to be the
small end. At first the work of
Church was too much for the local
boys and it was not until in the mid
die of the game that they began to
gather in hits. After they once got
their eye the ball was hit consistent-
ly and the Y boys came up from be.
hind and took the game in the ninth
inning by the one score margin.
Bonds started the game for the
locals, but when Stockdale received
an injury on his finger, he took his
place behind the bat and Norrick
hurled the last four innings doing
his usual stunt of striking out more
than half of the batters. The score
by innings:

Important Decision

In decision rendered Friday morn
ing by Judge II. M. Jewell of Della
ware, natural gas consumers of New.
ark were accorded victory in the
injunction suit instituted two years
ago to prohibit the Newark Natural
Gas & Fuel company from charging
in excess of eighteen cents per cubic
foot, net for natural gas. Judge Jew
ell decided the eighteen cent net rate
is reasonable and that money accum.
ulated in the Newark Trust company
from the increased rate fixed by the
company, is rightfuily the property of
citizens Of Newark.
Counsel for the gas company i'm
mediately gave notice of appeal and
the court fixed the appeal bond at
$500, sufficient to cover costs in the
suit to date.
1t is assumed that neither party to
the action will be satisfied to let the
case rest short of the supreme court
in which case it may be a matter of
two or three years before final deci-
sion is reached There has been con-
siderable speculation as to whether
the gas supply will have been suf.
ficiently exhausted by that time to
ultimately uphold the company in it's
contention relative to the decreasing
pressure, a point on which the com
pany's counsel rested heavily for sup
port of its demand for higher rate
to sumers.-Newark Advocate.
