Three Yearsm Jail,
Man Innocent
In Arson Case

CANANDAIGUA, N. Y, July 81.
A miscarriage of justice which
meant tragedy to a once well-to-
do farmer is revealed in the deci-
sion Of the State Court of Appeals
that Lloyd Lewis, Of Victor, is
innocent of arson, for which he
served three and one-hah years in
Auburn prison.
In 1881 Lewis owned q 123-acre
farm in Victor. On the afternoon
of November 80 Of that year, q
fire destroyed q large barn, milk
house and two SiloS on the farm.
Lewis was arrested. Witnesses
said that on the morning Of the
fire he had made several pur.
chases, among them four gallons
of gasoline. From this the web of
circumstantial evidence was de-
veloped. He was convicted in
June, 1882.
After his release, an attorney
took his case, and recently ASSo-
ciate Justice Harlan w. Rippey, Of
Rochester, ruled that the jury i'm

ROAD PAVING
SOUGHT BY
CHAMBER

KENsINGTON, Md, July ~.
Immediate paving of a short strip
Of the Jones Mill Road in Mont
gomery county, for which the
county already has been charged
by the Maryland State Roads Com
mission, will be sought this week
by the Kensington Chamber Of
Commerce.
Washington I. Cleveland, presi-
dent of the chamber, today said
q special committee had reported
that according to a statement re-
ceived from the roads body, the
cost of paving this approximate
two-fifths of a mile of roadway al
ready had been charged to the
county although the work has not
been done,
Cleveland said the charge was
included in the statements issued
by the commission in connection
with negotiations to settle the
county's overdraft In its account
with the State. This approximate
5000, 900 debt, however, was wiped
out by an act Of the past session
Of the General Assembly.
The paving work would serve to
improve all but a short strip Of
an unimproved link between the
first and third units Of Beach
Drive, in Rock Greek Park. At
present, the third unit Of the park
is isolated from the rest Of the
thoroughfare.
