ROAD WORK HELD
UP ONP|KE AGAIN
Chamber Of Commerce Board
to,Discuss Situation at
Meeting Tonight.

There will be a meeting Of the
board Of directors of the Fair
mont Chamber OF Commerce In
the Bethlehem Building at 1880
this evening. At this meeting the
matter Of completing the work on
the Arnettsyille gap OF the Nor.
gantown highway will be the
principal topic OF discussion. The
condition Of the city water will
also be taken up, and there will
be q partial report Of the Trunk
Line Association meeting held In
New York last week. The matter
Of the slow movement OF freight
out Of this section will also get
consideration.
The real reason for the meet
ing tonight is another holdup on
the road work between here and

ments of materials for the work
that 1t would be completed in fast
order. The local people have spent
weeks in working along the line
Of shipments and have kept ma.
terial available at all times. At
present there Is about enough
material on the ground to com.
plete the Arnettsvllle gap.
Today the contractors reported
that they were out OF men and
that another delayed seemed GER
tain. The one excuse after an
other that has been offered by the
contractors is getting wearlsome
to the local people and some &C.
ton is now demanded. Everything
has been done for the contractors
by the local Chamber OF Com
merce but the actual building OF
the road, and 1t is not felt they
should be forced to keep the con-
tractors in labor. 1t is said in
some places that the contractors
refuse to pay enough wages to
keep a corps Of good workmen on
the Job.

NEW BRUNSWICK, oct. 4, 3d.
Possibility that the Eiall.Mllls muir.

Information from sommerville, the
county seat, was to the effect that
notices had not been forwarded to
members Of the grand Jury and that
1t would require at least twenty.
four hours for the inquisitors to ap.

Attorney General Mott today re.
iterated his confidence in the story

she had witnessed the murders.
Two witnesses. Mr.. and Mrs.
Norman R. Tingle, who. live diago.

sound which sounded like pistol
shots at 10 p. m. the night the

The ballot commissioners Of Ma

the State Supreme Court to reprint
the county ballots and to place
thereon the names Of six persons
who had been nominated for local
district offices, to be voted upon
November Z. The order was issued
through the award Of six peremp.

petition for a writ Of mandamus
was dismissed by the court when Il
was ascertained that the nomina.

mated within the time limit pre-.

the latter body met on October II,
five days later, but refused to place

clared that II the ballots were re.
printed. It would cause great ex.

he said, the law requires that the
commissioners be given certificates
of the nominations within twento

ruled that this is not according to
law. ~
The court was in conference an
hour before again converting to
give its RECESSION. An oral opinion

He asserted that the nominations
we're made according to law and
that the commissioners were mott.

names on the ballot. The opinion
might have been different, he said
we're 1t not for the fact that the
