VICTOR KELLEY FAMILY
HELD AS STILL OPERATORS
Father, Wife and Son At Hut
ton, Charged With Threat
ening Raiding Party
POSED AS POULTRYMEN

Victor Kelley, his wife, Mrs. Edna
Kelley, and their son, William Kelley,
all of near Hutton, in this county,
were given hearing Saturday before
United States Commissioner Taylor
Morrison, in Cumberland, charged
with manufacture and possession of
untaXed liquor and possessing an un-
registered still. They were held I'M
der $1,000 each for Federal Court at
Cumberland.
The Kelley chicken farm, located
near Hutton, was raided November 6
by Federal officers, who say they were
refused admittance to the barricaded
home and threatened with shotguns
and rifles. The officers returned with
achievements and warned the in
mates that unless a search warrant
could be executed the house would be
assaulted by force. The Kelleys, who
have a substantial home and we'll
equipped farm, permitted the search
following the threat by the officers.
Gaining access to the house it was
evident, according to the officers in the
party, mash and liquor had been dis
posed of by dumping, but sixty-gal-
Ion still was confscated.
The Federal investigators had re-
ports that Kelley was a "barrel ship
per" of illicit liquor for some time to
customers in "dry" West Virginia. A
number of charred kegs were de-
stroyed on the premises.
At the arraignment, Saturday, the
Kelleys were severely censured by the
Federal Commissioner for their &C
tons in attempting to threaten and
intimidate Federal officers in the dis
charge of their duties and warned
that their conduct might, when they
are brought to trial, lead to the i'm
tinsition of more severe sentence.
The Kelleys, it is said, intimated to
the Federal officers that they did not
want their neighbors to know that
they were violating the law, having
posed as successful poultry raisers in
that vicinity. They fed their mash
to their turkeys and chickens. They
had pens containing over 1000 fowls,
the raiding officers found.

KITZMILLER SOCCERITES
LOSE TO BRUCE BOOTERS
Hold Allegheny County Champs
to Two Goals on Saturday

Bruce High school, Westernport,
defeated Kitzmiller High 40 in a
State P. A. L. Soccer tournament
game at Kitzmiller on Saturday.
Bruce High scored field goal in each
half. Both teams missed penalty
goals.
Last season Kitzmiller topped Bruce
for the first time in years of inter
county play. The teams played %
minutes of the first half before Marsh
of Bruce booted a goal. Only four
minutes of the second half had passed
when another tally was made.
Mcintyre, Kitzmiller goalie, made
several nice stops of what appeared
to be certain goals while Sharpless,
right fullback, broke up the Bruce
pass attack time after time.
Kitzmiller has been Garrett county
champion eight times since 1921, Oak
land 4 times, and Grantsville twice.
Kitzmiller gained the right to play
Bruce by beating Grantsville in a SER
les of three games after each school
had concluded the regular schedule
at the top of its division.

Water System Is Completed at
Grantsville

The gravity water system for
Grantsville was completed last week
by the Van Dorm company. A heavy
line from the springs in Negro Noun
tain has been laid to the extreme east
end of the town with branches to all
properties and fire hydrants. The
hydrants are placed at proper inter
walls and large steel reservoir will
provide the pressure necessary for
fire fighting purposes.
This installation gives the town a
great convenience and fire protection
which has been needed for long time.
With the volunteer fire department
fully manned and organized and in
possession of a modern fire engine
and one thousand feet of hose, Grants
vile is made a safer place in which
to live.
AS soon as the pipes are sterilized
the water will be ready for drinking
purposes.

|. GAIUS HARVEY is HELD
ON BARN BURNING CHARGE
COnfesses He Urged Wife To Set
Fire to Building of His Aunt

Charged with procuring the
burning of a barn belonging to
his aunt, Miss Mary Harvey,
Isaac Gaius Harvey, 20, is being
held in the Garrett County Jail
in Oakland in default Of bond in
the sum of $1,000.
States Attorney Walter W. Daw-
son said Harvey confessed he had per-
suaded his wife to set fire to the barn,
which was located on the farm of his
aunt, Miss Virginia May Harvey, near
Gormania, w. Va.
The States officer said Harvey was
cushioned for hours on last Friday
before his wife was brought in by
arresting officials. Upon seeing her,
Harvey confessed he had urged her to
burn the building so his aunt could OBJ
tain the LOO insurance and in turn
he could borrow some of it from her.
Mrs. Harvey was released on her own
recognizance in order that she might
return to her home and care for her
two small children.
The fire occurred on October 18, and
since that time Investigations had
been under way by county officers,
Fire Marshal Joseph D. Daugherty
and insurance adjusters.
In Harvey's confession he stated
he told Mrs. Harvey to go to the barn
for some empty sacks and on The way
out to drop match in a pile of hay
near the door. He also told her to
wait until he had time to go to Bay
ard so that he could establish an alibi
as to his whereabouts at the time of
the fire. He had previously talked to
his aunt about the insurance money
and he feared she would suspect him
if the fire occurred while he was on or
near the premises. 1t was also stated
by States Attorney Dawson that as
soon as Harvey's wife had set the hay
on fire, she became frightened and
ran to tell her aunt, but that it was
too late to extinguish the blaze. The
barn was entirely destroyed.

ANNUAL RED CROSS ROLL
CALL BEGAN NOVEMBER II
Appeal For Members Is Made by
Mrs. Samuel Cole, Chairman

With the advent of the Annual Red
Cross Roll Call on Sunday, an appeal
for members is being made by Mrs.
Samuel Cole, county chairman, and
all other community chairmen who are
assisting in the attempt to raise the
quota of 5000 set by National Head
quarters.
Inasmuch as fifty per cent of the
amount collected remains within the

past three years Garrett county has
fallen short of her quota by small
margins.
1t was stated that the need for Red
Cross funds was as great as ever
and that the work carried on by
the local and national organizations
is not included in general relief work
now being taken care of by welfare
boards and federal appropriations.
The drive for membership will con-
tinue until Thanksgiving Day. Those
who contribute will be given button,
a receipt and a Red Cross marker for
their window.
No list was available this week of
those who had already Joined as Mrs.
Cole was out of town on business,
but it was learned that Mrs. Anna
Byrd, of Sykesville, was the first per-
son to send in her dollar.

NO CANDIDATE AFFECTED
BY OFFICIAL VOTE COUNT
Many Minor Changes Made in
Figures-Democrats Gain

With the official canvass of the bal
lots in the general election last Thurs
day afternoon by the County Board of
Election Supervisors many minor
changes were made but none that dis
turbed the standing of any of the can
didates.
The official county vote gave Harry
w. Nice majority Of 1888, the fig
ures being, Nice, 4139; Richie, 1855.
Governor Nice lost two votes in the
official count while Mr.. Richie gained
20.
Radcliffe gained 113 votes over his
opponent, the figures being France,
3216; Radcliff, 1900. William S. Cor
dy, Democratic, also gained 35 votes
over his opponent Frederick P. Ad-
kins; while James A. Young, Demo
cratic, gained A votes over his OPP
ponent, Walter Quenstedt. Herbert
O'Conor gained 20 more on his OPP
ponent, George Henderson.
At first glance, it looked like all
Democrats were receiving bigger ma
jorities, David ]. Lewis also gaining
80 votes, but this thought was stopped
when F. n Zihlman received l more
in the official count than he had in
unofficial returns. Zihlman had 1894
against 2301 for Lewis.
Clifford Friend was marked down
10 votes but he still had majority
of 1863 over w. r. Browning, his Dem
ocratic opponent. Bartlett was the
only Democrat to receive less votes.
He dropped to 1877, u less than the
unofficial returns. B. F. Schroyer
came up 100, and William Miller had
200 added to his total. He had been
credited with only 70 votes in Kitz-
miller when in reality it was 270.
Both amendments were defeated by
large majorities.
