MAY INCREASE
COST OF LICENSE
Liquor Dealers in Lynchburg
Likely to Pay $2,500 for
Privilege.
[Special to The Times-Dispatch.!
Lynchburg, V'u., March 7.?The Coun?
cil Committee on Finance will meet to?
morrow afternoon at 3 o'clock, and dur?
ing that meeting, which will he the reg?
ular monthly session. I hi' question oi
llipior licenses lor /the coming yeut
wilt come up for..conalderatldili
The present license, or, rather, tho
charge made heforc tho saloons closed
? Ii .March, 1009, was $ I .r.on.- and this has.
he oh retained in the tux ordinance since
tho closing of the saloons; but it is
believed that this will be Increased.
Indeed, a member of the committee to?
day made the statement that the
liceUsqs for retailing liquor would
probably be put at $2,500, in order to
limit the number of places to about
twenty, a license of 52,500 would, it
is thought, accomplish this.
The impression prevails that the
committee will recommend to the Com?
mon Council Thursday-night that tho
cost of the license be increased, and It
would not be at all surprising to see
thl., either coupled with or followed by
an effort to require all saloons to do
busineaa without screens.'1,
Since Judge Christian disposed of the
contest the air has been full of ru?
mor. . ?; to who will get. licenses and
in what portions of the city they will
he granted. Some of these reports even
quote Judge Christian as saying that
he will limit the number of saloons to
twenty and that all of them will b<
< online'! to Main. Ninth and Twelfth
Streets. As far as Is known, there I?
no foundation for such reports, for
l>id?e Christian will make no statement
until the applications for licenses aro
brought before him In the Corporation
Court.
It Is leculloj, however, that Judge
Christian stated from the bench in 130S,
when tin.- licenses for that year were
granted, that he would grant no inoro
new licenses on Fifth Street, and that
If any of the licenses then being grant
' tl were ever allowed to lapse, that no
other:; would be given in their places.
It ts not known what Judge Christian1
will do witlt respect to the granting of
licenses on Fifth Street, but it is hard?
ly probable tha.1 he Wohld hohl the two
di e years" against the former dealers
who did business on that street, but It
is not probable that the licenses will be
^tven to any other dealers in that part
of the City.
It 's. generally believed that the sa?
loons will be con lined to the same ter- i
rltory they were in before the city
voted dry. but it would not be surpris?
ing if th.is is not contracted some when
all of the licenses shall have been
granted.
Under the Ryrd law It will be Impos?
sible for the dealers to get their
licenses until ?some time <n April, for ,
they must post notices of the fact that 1
they intend to apply for licenses fori
et least thirty days" before, the afrpb
c Alton is made. It was thought some
time ago that only ten days' notice was
required by law, but this is a mistake,
for the notice must be for thirty days.
it now seems quite certain that all

Cheaper Gas In Prospect.
After conferring with officials in

J July 1, 1912, and still further gradual
I reductions thereafter, on certain condi?
tions, are the propositions offered. The
conditions are for increased consump?
tion of gas and a contract for a portion
of tlie street lighting. This would
bring the price of gas next year down
