NEW TROL, icy
LINE is DOPED

ley line to provide transportation ia
Fcilities. While the country thrpugh
which the new line would run Is
sparsely settled, Its property owners
represent some OF the wealthiest and
most influential citizens In Lewis
county, who are extensively engaged
In agricultural pursuits. and whose
chief industry Is cattle raising.
DIR. Collins. OF Jane Lew, seems to
be the most active of those who are
promoting the new line. From the irl-
formal Ion coming from him IL beglnB
to look as though the proposltln was
meeting with much favor among the
citizens of Jane Lew and nearby
country districts. Free right OF way
have been offered by a number OF
land owners. whose property the new
line would traverse. Several, too,
are ready TO invest their money in a
COMPANY should it be organized. The
next step, and which Is not very TAR
on, 1t reports are t-ue, would be TO
apply for q charter.
The route to Berlin from Jane Lew
Is practically level and would re-
auire d small expenditure OF money
IN the building as compared with
other systems that have been cons
strncted In this section OF the cpln;
try.
pflciais OF the Monong 1hela VAL
ley Traction COMPANY when apprised
OF the plans Of the Jane Lew citizens
TO organize an independent COMPANY
to build the limo from Jane Lew TO
Berlin, stated that II WAS news ia
them. They had nothing wliates er
to say IN regard to the proposition.

INDICTMENTS FOUND
FOR FORMING TRUST

within two days of a ten per cent
increase In wages. This action is
held TO be due to agreement.
Indictments also were returned
against Mayor w. H. Cunningham
and six councllmen, charging them
with being financially interested in
property purchased for village pur-
poses.
Among the other things the jury
sets forth that the grand jury was
unable to FIX any particular cause for
the recent East youngstown reign Of
anarchy. The report hays Mayor w.
Ii. Cunningham and members of the
East Youngstown police force, saying
that neither the mayor nor any mem
Der of the police force made any eff
fort whatever to dispense the mobs.
Mayor Cunningham Is criticised for
mot closing the saloons of East
Youngstown early on Friday morn
ing after he had received notice Of
the temper OF the mob. The report
says the mayor and policemen Of
East Youngstown were guilty of such
inetticiency and disregard for the law
as to be unfit and unworthy to I'LL
the positions which they hold.
The report goes on to say that the
grand jury was unable to find that
the influence of any foreign govern
ment was responsible for the riot.
The alleged combination Of manufac=
turers with the intent to keep down
the wages OF common labor is criti-
clsed.
The report recites the fact that a
guard at the youngstown Sheet and
Tube Company, who is q member OF
the state militia. Rithout legal au-
| thority. took ten members of the ma
tional guard to the sheet and tube
company's property to guard the
same. 1t Is also stated that the guard
appropriated state ammunition, al
Though the grand jurors say that they
do not feel that he intended to steal
the ammunition. It Is set forth that
the action OF the guard made 1t I'M
/ possible for the sheriff or the captain
of the militia to mobilize milltiamen
In time Of grave public danger.
Guards on the sheet and tube COM
pany bridge, who fred into the crowd
assembled In front OF the Office be-
fore the rloting began. are censored,
The report says the guards are not Of
the standard to be trusted with re-
sponsihle duty.

City Engineering Department Starts
Compilation Of Figures Covering
Building Developments Follow Paw
. ing of Streets.

A statistical report and plat to show
the relationship between paving city
streets and building improvements Is
being prepared in the office of the city
engineer Tie statistics are to cover
a fve-year period and will show the
paving laid and houses built each year.
The object aimed at is TO prepare con-
crete evidence of the relationship be-
tween street Improvement and building
Improvements and whether building
follows street improvements, or
whether pavement follows home build
ing. or whether there is no definite re-
IatioRShip between the two,
When the statistics are worked out
the information will probably prove
valuable as proof for both street inn
provement and building development.
1t is quite commonly contended by OBJ
serving persons that paved streets are
the first to be most rapidly built up.
1t IS expected that this situation will
be at least partly confirmed by the
statistics.
In any event the map being prepared.
which shows ny colors pavement laIa
each year, and by corresponding colors
buildings and houses built each year.
will he Of value for showing those
streets and districts of the city where
the largest amount Of paving and
building has been done.
