AUTO BUSES

torney Alexander read d letter from
j. HI. Hustus, president OF the Bos-
ton & Maine Railroad, in which on
behalf OF the railroad he stated that
In the Judgment of the management
the operation of motor busses will
furnish an utility more satisfactory
to; the public than the present pas
sehger service upon the York Har-
Dor & Beach Railroad, and at the
same time will enable the railroad
to avoid the losses accrufng to It az
the result of the operation of that
road. ~
The bus service that the Boston &
Maine Transportation Company
plans to furnish was described by
Mr.. Fritch. who pointed out that
10 round trips would be In effect
daily on the main line and that the
fare between York and Portsmouth
would be practically the same as on
the steam railroads. cents in place
Of the steam railroad fare of A
cents. He stated that having in
mind the development of local bust
ness which does not exist today he
believed the bus service could be
made self-supporting. &
AttOEuey Arthur n. CeWeu OIL 10TH
Villaga appeared as counsel for Rob-
erts & Grace, who operate bus serv-
ice from Portsmouth to Eliot and
from Portsmouth through Kittery
Point to Gerrish Island. They pre-.
scented no opposition to the proposed
bus service.
Hearing was then held by the
commission on the, application OF
Ward d. Brown of Milford, Conn.
for a certificate to continue his bus
service between York Beach and
York Village. Mr.. Brown was rep.
resented by Attorney Sewell.
It was the opinion of Mr.. Brown
that there Is enough business to
warrant the bus service by his COM
pany and the proposed service OF
the Boston g. Maine Transportation
Company. but the latter company
commended that as 1t plans to run
year round bus service there should
be no competition during the sum-
mer months when the service can
pay for itself.

1883 MARRIAGE LICENSES
ISSUED HERE In 1924
With the Exception of 1928 the
Number Exceeds That of
Any Previous Year

Since the year 1914, The Republi-
can has been printing in its mid-Jan-
uary number a table showing the
number of marriage licenses issed for
the preceding year at the office of the
Clerk of the Circuit Court for Gar
rett county.
The year 1928 was the banner year
in the marriage license bureau at the
Court House when 1142 licenses were
issued. In 1924 the number issued
totalled 1888, which was one greater
than in 1920, when 1882 licenses were
applied for and granted. In this lat
ter period the soldiers had returned
from overseas and had taken mp the
civil pursuits Of life, establishing a
business and then as is natural they
courted and won their helpmates with
the result that 1919 more licensee were
issued in Oakland in 1920 than during
the twelvemonth preceding.

MAY ADOPT ELECTRICITY
ON BALTIMORE and OHIO
Seventeen-Mile Grade, In This
County, May Be Thus
Equipped Shortly

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company is said to be contemplate
ing electrifcation of its road over the
Seventeen-Mile Grade in Garrett
county which begins at Piedmont, w.
Va, and ends at Altamont, Md, nine
miles east of Oakland. Upon this
steep mountain grade heavy freight
traffic now taxes the pulling capacity
of the company's big Mallet engines.
New sources of power are being Civ
en- close study by the railway COM
pany's engineers, who are devoting
much study to Notwithstanding
problems.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
holds the distinction of being a pio-
neer in the electrifcation of rail
roads, having adopted that type of
power in the Belt Line tunnel under
Baltimore thirty years ago. Off
cials of the road are now carrying
to completion the S6,000,000 electric
system of the Staten Island Rapid
Transit Company. This includes 40
miles of track. New cars of all steel
construction, 67 feet long, are being
used in that section.

BOND MORTGAGE AND
DEEDS IN MERGER FILED
Properties in Garrett and Allie

By New Concern

Deeds from the Northern Natural
Gas Company, the West Virginia
Central Cos Company and the West
Virginia and Maryland Gas Company
to the Cumberland and Allegheny Gas
Company, have been filed for record
ing in the land office of Garrett coun-
ty. There is also a deed from the
Eastern Oil Company, a West Vir-
ginia corporation, which was owned

Virginia and Western Maryland into
one large holding company to supply
manufactured and natural gas to its
consumers.
The deeds in question cover the
franchises, pipeline systems, regula-
tor sites, compressor stations and all
property whatsoever held by the orig
inal company in West Virginia and
Maryland which furnished its pro-
duct to many towns along the line of
the Western Maryland Railway COM
pany, Cumberland, the Georges Creek
section of Allegany county, Oakland,
Mountain Lake Park, Deer Park, Ter
ra Alta and other towns west of Oak
land in Preston county, West Va.
The deeds are filed in book form
and are signed by Edward M. Wheel
er, vice-president, and BENZ. Hawkins,
secretary.
In connection with the deeds there
is bond mortgage and deed of trust
also filed for recording. The first
mortgage is covered by a twenty-five
year seven per cent bond issue, dated
December l, 1924, in the sum of ST.
100000. 1t is stated that upon the
execution and delivery of the mort
gage the company may deliver the
bonds.
The bond mortgage is secured by
all property acquired by the Cumber-
land and Allegheny Gas Company, its
main trunk and lateral gas pipe lines.
The mortgage and deed of trust is
made to the Atlantic Exchange Bank
& Trust Co., of Baltimore, as trus-
tees. The deeds and mortgage are
filed through Piper, Carey & Hall,
attorneys, Baltimore, Md.
Attorneys representing the Cum
berland and Allegheny Gas Company
have recently secured renewal of the
franchises in cities and towns for
merly held by the original natural
gas companies.
