Wyer anil Mason, of the , Ann of Wyer. ? Maeon, of this city. , were seen this morning by a representative of the West Virginian concernI ing the suit Instituted against them by , T. J. Moyor, of Unlontowu. for commissions for the sale of lands amount, ing lo $13,012, ami they gave their side of the story, which differs materially from the statement taken from tho ntfliinvit of T. J. Moyer, which affidavil Is the basis of the suit. The Arm of Wjrer ft Mason cannot understand why suit has bean brought against them by Mr. Mover. B0M1 men claim that Mr. Moyer had nothing to do with the sale of tho 10.237 acres of coal for which the ufiidunl claims that, he was to receive one dollar per acre for selling. Both men claim emphatically that Moyer never hnd anything to do with any, [tart of tills tract at any time. Mr. IVycr said that Moyer knew nothing of the sale of the coal Until he told him while In Unionlown. He sold that he told Moyer that he hnd sold a ten thousand acre tract and that Moyer congratulated lilin. Tlio men say that they have a contract with Moyer to pay him two dollars per acre for the asle of 1.000 acres of land. They say thai only 219 acres of this tract has been taken up. They also have a contract with Moyer to give him 6214 cents per acre for selling 2,200 acres of coal land and that only 1,900 acres of tilts tract has been taken up. Tho money which the Arm of Wyer Sr Mason was to receive, was to be paw oiie-inira aown, one-mini in one year and one-third In two years, and Mover's comnriSilon1 tras to be paid on the same terms. They say that as soon as the notets come due and arc paid, Moyer will receive his commission accord Inir to contract. The Arm of Wyer & Mason Is a local real estate business firm. It lias done considerable business and has never been In trouble before. Messrs. Wyer 'and .Mason feel that the suit Instituted a trains! them was done with the Intent to extort money from them. Wyer and Mason have always been regarded ns men of first class business Integrity and the suit was a sur- 1 prise to their friends, as It was also to the defendants.
