MoULDERs MRET1No,-A "Moulder"
furnishes the following report Of the
proceedings at the meeting Of the iron
moulders held in Burrs Hall, Centre
Wheeling, on Saturday evening:
Pursuant to adjournment the iron
moulders working In the establishments
of Joseph Bell & Go. and Benz amin Fisher
met In BurLs Hall, Centre Wheeling, on
Saturday evening, December 9th. On
motion, Mr.. r. 3. Green was elected
President and Mr.. j. l. Ingram Secretary.
Minutes oil previous meetings were read
and approved Of as read. The commit
tee appointed at a previous meeting 10
confer with the proprietors reported that
they had performed the duly assigned
them, with the following result: Messrs.
Joseph Bell & Co. stated 10 them that
they would not run their foundry until
the 1st Of April next unless they went to
work at q reduction Of 20 per cent. Ben.
jamin Fisher informed the committee
that he could not pay the wages paid
prior TO November 30, 1874, refusing,
however, to give them any reasons why
he could not. Alter considerable discus
sion, participated in by every man pres
ent, they resolved that they would not
return to work again at a reduction Of 20
per cent"
Thegentlersn who furnished tho above

We are requested to publish
THE mOulders are united In this mat
ter, and we think they should be. They
went to work and tried working OF the
reduction etiectually, and found that they
were doing themselves as well as other
workmen in the city and vicinity an in.
Justice, We think that the proprietors
should have met the committee and dis.
cussed the matter in a friendly manner
The moulders claim that the reduction Is
uncalled Tor, from the simple TACT that
they are now selling their stoves and wares
at higher prices than they received FOL
them three years ago, when pig iron was
selling at $45 90 per ton. The committee
arc still prepared 10 meet the proprietors
and consult with them upon the matter
On motion the meeting adjourned 10 meet
again at the call Of the committee.

A CHARGE OF EMBRzzLRMRNr.-On
Saturday morning VIM. 3. Bowman, Sec.
rotary Of the La Belle Insurance Com.
psny, Of this city, was arrested upon a
requisition from tho Governor Of Ohio
and taken TO Cincinnati 10 answer o
charge Of embezzlement in Butler coun.
~, Ohio. From the Sheriff OF Butler
county, who served the requisition, we
learn the following particulars Of the al.
legged embezzlement: Several years ago
Mr.. Bowman was employed as a clerk in
the office Of the Fire and Marine Insur-
ance Company, OF Hamilton, Butler coun.
ty, Ohio. The Secretary Of the Conpa.
ny, q Mr.. Lsnders, received o commission
Tor his services, and employed Mr.. Bow.
man and the other clerks at his own cost.
When Mr. Bowman left the employ Of
Mr.. Landers, settlement was had and the
retiring clerk received $50 as the amount
due him. LHnders afterwards claimed that
a mistake had been made, and that Bow
man was indebted to him 10 the amount
of 1895. Nr. Bowman demanded an
itemized account, but from some cause or
other he never received it, and conse-
quently refused to pay the bill. Landers
afterwards proved a defsulter to the
amount OF $4,000, and Mr.. Bowman
heard no more of his Indebtedness 10 the
late Secretary until the Sheriff served the
requisitiOn upon him. The affair ia
rather mixed up, and there may be an
other version Of 1t, but we give all we
have been able to learn. Mr.. Bowman
has many friends hero, who are confident
that everything will be satisfactorily ar
ranged in few days.

act that no one can pray when mosquito is
in the room. 1t is o singular coincidence that
just about the time when the HERALD, accord
ing to the illiterate press, got up sensation
about mosquitoes, the London Times should
get up "a sensation about ants It's columns
have recently contained complaints OF
the winged and unwinged ants which
swarm at present in the British capital, and
with remedies suggested by its able cor
respondents Vitriol, a saucer of weak rum
and water, well sweetened; carbolic acid,
camphor, are among these remedies. 1t thus
appears that both the great cities have suf-
fered from similar pests, and that the inhab-
itants Of both have appealed to their leading
journals for relief. The results are what
might have been expected-the mosquitoes
have disappeared from New York and the ants
in London are retiring before the advance of
science, as expounded by independent jour
nalism
