Mr.. Fox Has a Grievance

The Wildwood Journal, Wildwood, Nj.
Gentlemen:-I probably have no
more reason for addressing you than
any other property owner or business
man in Wildwood, except that you may
through the columns of your paper help
to remedy some of the things that will,
if not remedied be a serious hindrance
to the development of your city.
1 wish to call your attention especi-
ally to the deplorable condition the
Public Utilities Companies are causing:
The Water Company has increased
its rates during the past year and are
giving poorer service and poorer water
than ever before. The Gas Company
last spring was granted the privilege of
charging a minimum of seventy-five
cents per month and are now seeking
the privilege of charging two dollars for
turning the gas off and on.
The resident owners If they know of
these condition do not seem to care as
no n was present at Trenton when
WV ASSShS AO40SSS was "d0C VI ZIG
Public Utilities Commission.
The nonresident owners have very
little chance of learning the facts as
notices are placed under the doors of
vacant cottages and apartments and
frequently never seen by the
Such notices should be mailed to the
owners as it is 40 trouble to know the
address of the owner when bills are to
be sent.
1 think it is a shame to have a prom
Using city like Wildwood SO controlled
by Public Utility Companies as to ro-
tard its growth.
1t seems to me the business people
and residents of Wildwood should
awake to their responsibility to their
summer residents and see that they are
dealt with justly. as their prosperity
depends almost entirely on the summer
residents.
Trusting you may be able through
the medium ofyourcolumns to do some
thing for the betterment of conditions,
/ am Respectfully,
A Property Owner,
GEORGE Fox.

FRENCH ADVANCE
BY USING MINES
Use the Bayonet After ExpIo-
SiOnS at La POlSSelle


The following communication was
issued by the French war office in
Paris:
During the night of Feb. go we
blew up at La Boisselle three series
of mines and succeeded in occupying
the excavations thus made, notwith-
standing a counter attack, which we
repulsed with the bayonet.
"In the Argonne there has been ar
tillery firing and the throwing of
bombs on all sides, particularly in the
region OF Bolante and Bagatelle. Ac-
cording to the latest advices, it Is re-
ported that the Germans have deliv-
ered a very violent but fruitless attack
on the fortification of Marie Therese.
IN Lorraine, at La Lisiere, east
of the forest of Parroy, and to the
north of that forest our advance posts
have easily repulsed An attack of the
enemy.
THE minor action to the northeast
of Manonyiller ended in the pursuit
of the Germans by the hussars.
"In the Vosges. at La Fontenelle
(Ban.De-Sapt) an attack by the en-
envy has been checked"

Reading Would Have Illegal Car Rid.
ers Maintained by Companies.
The officials of the Berks county
prison at Reading, Pa, will try to
compel the Philadelphia & Reading
and the Pennsylvania railroads to pay
something toward the cost of main
tanning prisoners sen to jail at the
instance of railroad detectives on the
charge of illegal car riding.
At the monthly meeting of the pris-
on inspectors the matter was vigor-
ously discussed and Solicitor Leonard
G. Yoder was instructed to take it up
with the district attorney.
Many Illegal car riders are sent to
jail monthly to serve thirty-day SEN
fences, and these and the many com
mitted from police courts for short
sentences cause the quarters devoted
to them to become overcrowded.
1t was the sentiment at the meeting
that 1t is not fair to the taxpayers to
have them bear all the burden of the
cost of punishment of those guilty OF
violating railroad regulations.

$4,000 IS NEEDED
TO SAVE The BANK
Stockholders Told They Must
Put Up That Sum.

The stockholders of the First Ma
tional bank of Schaefferstown, near
Lebanon, Pa, in a public town meet
ing were told that they must raise
$4,000 in order to save the bank from
being wiped out as the result of the
operations of Alvin Binner, the cash
Ter, who committed suicide on Satur
day.
This sum-, it was stated by Uriah
B. Horst, president of the bank, Is
necessary II the institution is to be
~reopened for business. 1t was stated
that there is no assurance that the
$4,000 represents the total loss of the
bank.
Failure of the bank officials to give
the assembled stockholders anything
definite in the way of figures covering
the loss, or complete information as
to the manner in which the loss was
sustained, caused a majority of the
stockholders to withhold their assent
that they put up money at once A
by the directorate, pledged themselves
to subscribe funds.
Mr.. Horst expressed the belief that
not n penny could be realized from
A. j. Hoverter, a Lebanon life insur.
ance agent, who is now under arrest
on a charge of aiding Binner in the
misrepresentation of s13,582.12 by the
mean of bad checks.
d. B. Kiefer, a Middletown cattle
dealer, Mr.. Iiorst declared. was con.
sidered good for all of the $4,000
which he owes. and Irwin Horst, a
SchaefferstoMf cigar manufacturer
and tobacco dealer, is looked upon as
certain to 9ag every penny of his
$4,000 accom-
The kiele and Horst accounts,
with the $1,000 represented by Bin
ner's bond :. Horst pointed out,
would evenlu y reduce the present
