Lots OF good coal is lost by the oper-

cars. This is especially true in West
Virginia where tunnels and mountains
make the work OF the train crew par
IicutarIy hard. Many coal cars start
on their journey eastward from mines
in the Fairmont district vita the coal
built up all around the brakes. When
the brakes must be applied or released
some OF this coal must be jostled away
and this starts the coal to giving away

WOULD "FTX UP"
LIKE CASE ON @. I.
IF He Kept Quiet 1t Would Be Done
In Few NIonths--His
Recommendation.

| Former Policeman GuStave Litke, it
is said, was promised by q member of
the board of police commissioners
that if he permitted the acceptance of
| his resignation to stand as accepted
| for the benefit Of the service" for II
| few months the board would hold an
| executive session and quietly change
it's vote to his satisfaction This would
be done providing there was no fur
ther stirring up of the matter
Mr.. Litke is still chatting under the
treatment given to him by the com
missioners. He was told that he
would be notified when the meeting at
which his resignation would be again
presented to the board was held and
he was surprised when he read the
day after the last meeting that action
had been taken
He takes exception to some of the
claims made before the police board.
He says that Captain Grace was the
one who spoke to him about waiting
for action by the board before leaving
the force, but having accepted a posi-
ton he felt bound to keep his agree
ment. Previously he had talked with
Chief Rawlings and the chief had
written his resignation for him. The
chief told him he was giving short
notice. ON one of the nights while
| having trouble with Sergeant Johnson
he met the chief and laid his side of
the case before him. He wanted it
known that he left the police force be-
cause he had a better job and not on
account of trouble with Sergeant John
son. Mr.. Litke received the following
recommendation from Chief Raw
lings:
ITO whom it
The bearer Mr.. Gustav Litke. is
personally known to me as a young
man of good character and habits, has
been a member of the New Britain
police force for the past four years
and I can cheerfully recommend him
to anyone who needs his services. He
is worthy of any confidence that may
be reposed in him.
