LODI VILLAGE ON
EVE OF GAS WAR

The people of Lodi are stirred over
a gas war" that is reported to be
pending there. The villages old
franchise has expired and the gas
company now wants SO cent gas with
q rebate of 10 per cent. if paid by
the 10th of the month.
The old council. it is said, refuses
to take any action in the matter, be-
lieving any settlement should devolve
upon the new council elected in No
vember.
The old agreement expired last
May and there has been no rate
agreement in effect since then, nor
has either party asked for one, un-
til the recent move by the gas COM
pany for the SO cent rate. The COM
pany also wants the present meter
reading charge Of IS cents raised to
so cents.
The women of Lodi are circulating
a petition of protest.

FIRE LOSS OF $4,000
TO SPENCER FARMER

Fire starting from an unknown
origin DESTROYED property on the farm
of James Eglin in Spencer township,
last Thursday night, valued at $780,
900. Albert Eglin, son of
James Eglin, was living on the farm.
The fire was discovered at 9:3O at
night, after the family had gone to
bed, and gained such headway that it
could not be stopped until the fine
large cattle barn, the horse barn,
nineteen cattle and seven hogs had
been buried.
Fire apparatus was summoned
from Spencer and Lodi, and respond
ed. Even with two fire engines on
the job the flames could not be check
ed, until the loss was complete
A favorable wind prevented the
house catching fire.
The property was insured.

MEDINA WILL BE
SHY ON ROAD MONEY

Medina county has suffered set
back in its anticipations for road mon
ey from the state for the 1922 pro-
gram, and will secure only about one
fourth of the amount it had hoped for,
and in a measure was justified in ex-
pecting.
County Engineer Bibbins was in
Columbus last Friday in consultation
with the State Highway Commission
relative to Medina's interest, but was
unable to gain a promise for more
than $4,000. However, the Com
mission leaves entirely with the Coun-
~ Commiss ,oners, says Mr.. Bibbins,
the decision as to what roads the mon
ey shall be expended on.
Mr.. Bibbins says he was given as
surapce by the Commission that Me-
dina may expect a substantial allow
ance Of federal money for 1928, to be
expended on the Ashland Medina road
in Lafayette township, and road No.
81, connecting the gap between Wads-
worth and Lodi.

BIG BOOZE FIND
Westfield Township Farm Yields
Up Barrel and Half
of Real Stuff 7
THREE MEN ARRESTED
AND LODGED IN JAIL
Booze Located in Secret Com
partments Specially
and SkillfuIy
Butt

The biggest supply of raisin-jack that
local officials have uncovered since
the prohibit on law went into effect,
was located Tuesday Afternoon on what
is known as the DR.. Heaveland farm
a mile south of Chippewa Lake in
Westfield township, now owned by
Peter Marinof.
Tipped off that there might be some-
thing doing worth while on the Marin
off farm, Sheriff Bigelow took with
him Deputy Hange, Geo. Mellert and
Clarence Hanshue. When they ar
rived at the Marinoff home, the owner
was not there, but two men who have
been living there, Mike Petehof and
Nick Usheff, were there, but indicated
surprise that the officers should sus-
pect anything wrong. .a.
A systematic search Of the premises
by. the off GERS resulted in half bar
rel of raisin-jack being found in a
hen house, and a full barrel, about SO
gallons, in a pit underneath a shanty
some distance from the house. Some
loose dirt near the shanty which could
not be accounted for excited the sus-
picions of the officers and after kick
ing away several boards with n, the
pit, about S feet square and feet
deep, was located.
A search of the barn disclosed a
hidden room, entrance to which was
so deftly covered with>hay as to battle
discovery under ordinary circumstance
es. One the officers in careless
ly kicking aside some hay, accidentally
uncovered the entrance to-the room.
However, no liquor was 'fonnAthere.
Petehoff and Usheff were brought
to Medina and placed in Jail. Marin
off, who had gone to Cleveland, was
intercepted in Medina while driving a
load of merchandise to his home. He
was accompanied by Sheriff Bigelow,
who later brought him back to jail.

CHANGE IN TRAIN
SCHEDULE-ON>A C. &Y.

A new train schedule went into
effect Sunday ON the A. G. & Y,
whereby the eastbound train arriving
erstwhile in Medina at $40 a. M,
now arrives at $40, and the east
bound which formerly arrived at
$3.50, now arrives at 4:15. Under
the new schedule the running time
between Akron and Delphos has been
reduced one hour. .,s..:....,
Lack of freight business of late ON
this line has caused the company to
discontinue one of its local freight
trains, there now being bat one each
day one way. However, it is the
purpose Of the company TO- put the
other train back just as soon as busi-
ness picks up. The through freight
at night will be continued as at pres
ent, but the one bound west will not
stop at Medina. The eastbound will
stop here oray for cars picked up
west of Plymouth.

NEAR MURDER
IN SEVILLE
Colored Bandit Shoots Member
of B. & O. Section
Gang
CAUGHT AT STERLING
WITH COMPANIONS
Posse Does Clever Work in
OEertaking Trio, Each
of Whom Was
Armed

Line man Win outlet mole through
his hand and a furrow on his neck
along which the bullet travelled, and
three men in the county jail charged
with the shooting; is the result Of an
attempted holdup in Seville last
Thursday night.
If The men held gave their names as
Obadiah Shepard, VIM. Tunner and
Earl Howard, and all three are col
ored. They were captured by O. w.
Pyle, superintendent Of the Doris
Construction Co. and Night Watch
man Glenn Burkholder of Seville less
than an hour after the offense was
,cpnmitted, Just rs the men were
about to mount freight train leav-
ing Sterling.
About z o'clock Thursday night a
colored man raped for entrance at
a box car where number of Hun
garians We're living not far from the
b. 4 0. station at Seville. AS the
door was opened the man pushed his
way in and demanded money. One
,oftheH Hungarianswho was lying down
attempted to rise, whereupon the col
orad man struck him over the head
with q club. One Of the other color
ed men then told his companion to
shoot the Hungarian, and he COM
piled with the order. The Hun
garian threw up his hand and duck
ed his head, the bullet penetrating
the palm of the hand and tearing a
furrow across the mans neck.
The other Hungarians gave the
alarm and within a few minutes a
posse headed by Burkholder and Pyle
motored to Sterling, the colored men
having headed that way along the
railroad track.
Arriving at Sterling, Pyle, armed
with shot gun, walked up the track
toward Seville and had proceeded but
a few rods when he perceived the men
approaching. Covering them with
his gun and ordering them to throw
up their hands, the men lost no time
in doing so, at the same time casting
ON the ground the weapons they
carried, consisting of revolver,
screw driver and an iron club.
The colored men were taken back
to Seville where the Hungarians
identified Shepherd as the one who
did the shooting, and Turner as the
one who urged Shepherd to the act.
Howard. who remained on the outside
of the car, took no part in the hold
up, it is stated, as he carried one
arm in a sling the result of a serious
burn which he says he sustained
from gasoline explosion in Uhrichs-
vile, o., recently.
Deputy Sheriff AL Hange brought
the men to jail about $3.50 Thursday
night. All three deny having been
in Seville and claim that they had
met accidentally only few hours
before while waiting to catch an OUT
going freight train. Tunner has two
gold teeth which gleam brilliantly in
the center of his upper jaw when he
speaks, and the Hurigarians in the
box car gave to Burkholder and Pyle
q similar description Of the one who
ordered his companion to shoot.
4 Saturday afternoon the colored
trio each entered plea Of not guilty
before Justice Of Peace w. P, Aims
worth and were bound over to the
grand jury under bond of$1,U00 each.
The men will be given a hearing be-
fore Justice of Peace Ainsworth today,
Thursday.

GOODS FROM US. SPURNED
OWING TO POOR PACKING
Some Uruguay Merchants File
Suit-Strained Commercial Re-
lations Are Seen,

Uruguay, March 10
Many merchants of this city have re-
fused to accept delivery of American
goods consigned to them because. in
stead of arriving boxed, as requested
they came in bales and many of the
articles were broken. In some cases
legal action against the American ex-
porters has been begun.
Last nights edition of Ell Dia pub
lished photographs of broken bales. and
stated the situation should receive the
attention of the United States authori-
ties.
"Such occurrences" the newspaper de-
clared, lead to strained commercial re-
lations between the United States and
Uruguay. Since European production
has been augmented Uruguayan mer-
chants have received better treatment
from European manufacturers, who
carefully fill orders. The reduced prices
at which these goods are sold give them
place above American products. The
difference in exchange rates and the
irritation which accumulated during the
war, when American manufacturers took
the advantage of having no competitors,
appear to be bearing fruit

reason. However, his experience Of
two working days in the White
