Fish Dealers Protest Central Railroad Fish Sales
Larrabee and Company faced opposition from Wilkes-Barre fish dealers over selling fish from a curbside car on the Central tracks. Dealers warned they would stop shipping freight over the line if the practice continued, prompting the firm to rent a store to sell fish from indoors. The town clock resumed operations at 2 pm after a long stoppage since July 23, its longest outage. Miss Mamie Hughes, badly hurt stepping from an electric car, is expected to recover as scalp wounds heal and no skull fracture is found. William Davis, shot in Larkville, shows continued improvement and is on track for a full recovery barring complications.
