ADAMS CRIMINAL TERM UNDER WAY No Cases of Importance Are on List and Session May Be Short Gettysburg, Pa., Aug. 26. The August term of the Adams county court began yesterday with a largo list of criminal c.ases on the list. Thirty-five cases, the largest for some time, have been returned for trial. In the whole list there is nothing of any importance. It is likely a number of them will be set tled outside of court, so that the list will be considerably shortened and the court will not last many days. It was expected that the petition of the liquor dealers who ask that a part of their license money be re turned to them for the time they were compelled to close under Gov ernment orders would be heard this time, but this matter will be heard at a special argument court on Sep tember 15. Since the date for the hearing has been set it has been stated war-time prohibition would in all probability be lifted by Presi dent Wilson on October 1. This likely will have a bearing on the situation at the time of argument. Liquor dealers in Adams county are making an effort to have refunded a proportionate share of their license money, depending upon the time they will be closed. They claim it is not fair to charge them for the entire year when they have in real ity sold but a portion of the time. Part of this refund, provided the liquor men win their case, will come from the State and the Attorney General's office, which is interest ing itself in the matter, was repre sented by Guy W. Davies when the order setting the time for Septem ber 15 was made. Two Lewistown Men Who Raise Big Tomatoes lif*wistown, Pa., Aug. 26.

Those who have a small supply are limiting sales to one or two pounds to each customer. The wholesale dealers say their supply is exhausted and that they have had no reserve stock of the commodity for four weeks. With the canning and preserving season on, the lack of sugar is quite serious, as many of the housewives have had no wnrning and were unable to lay in a supply to tide them over the period of short age. It is expected the situation will be relieved by the end of the week, as shipments have been promised from the refineries. It is said one of the causes for the shortage here is the fact that peo ple have been motoring here from Waynesboro and other nearby towns where the supply of sugar was low and making purchases from mer chants in twenty-pound lots. When this was discovered the storekeepers refused to sell to motorists, but it was too late.
