RIVER NEWS.

The river closed Saturday morning at
this point, for the second time this win
ter, and from present indications there is
no prospect for an immediate 'break up
OF course there is no news to report.
The following is special dispatch
from Pittsburgh to the Cincinnati Com
merciai:
Captain A. D. Miller, an old steam
boatman, but who for several years past
has been engaged in the oil refining
business, has failed, it is said, for about
S250,000 His troubles waa caused by
indorsing for Warning Brothers, who
failed some time since. The case of
bravo and Mcdonald against the Pitts
burgh Insurance Company, which has
been on trial for several days in the
Common Pleas Court, before Judge
Stowe, was concluded at noon to-day and
submitted to the jury. The case involve
some very interesting points to river and
insurance men, and, in fact, is test case
as to certain questions. The action was
brought to recover about $4,000 for the
loss of coal which was insured in the
Pittsburgh company. The boat which
lowed the coal double-tripped-that is =
part OF the tow was left at the mouth of
the Mississippi and the rest was taken on
up, the boat intending to return for the
balance. 1t was the coal whiSh was thus
left for a second trip that was lost, and
upon which insurance WAS claimed. The
defense was that the contract had been
broken by the coal men. No verdict
yet.

THE COMING PIASO-STEISwAY Up
RIGHT-Mcssrs. Adams * Lucas, 1927
Market street, have recently succeeded
in introducing the Steinway Upright
Pianos in Wheeling, by the sale Of
several of those superior instruments to
some of our citizens.
The Upright Piano is, from its small,
compact form and handsome exterior,
especially suited to the boudoir, the re-
caption room and the parlors of many
houses where a Grand or Square Piano
could not conveniently be placed.
Messrs. Steinway u Sons have, after
long and earnest study and experiments,
succeeded in producing Upright Piano
fortes which are the most perfect lnstru-
mcnts of their class ever constructed
The volume of tone is fully equal 20 any
of Steinways best Square Grand Pianos,
while the quality is of the most exquisite
musical character-pure, sympathetic,
and in the highest degree pliable. The
durability of these new Upright Pianos,
and their capacity of standing in tune, is
unparalleled in the history of piano max
ing. and evcu greater than that of the
best Grand and Square Pianos.
Too much cannot be said in favor OF
these Instruments; in fact, they must be
seen and heard to be appreciated.
There is no doubt whatever that the
Steinway Upright Panic will shortly dis
place other STYLES of instruments, and the
Messrs. Adams Il Lucas, sole agents for
the same. assure us that there is a rapidly
increasing demand here for the same and
that they intend in the future to keep
stock OF them constantly on hand.
NOTICE. will have three additional

THE BRIDGEPORT SENSATION.

Anything out of the ordinary line of
everyday life in Bridgeport is of an unus-
ual occurrence and Of course the rsvels-
tons of the past few days have not only
caused great excitement, but has also
aroused the sympathy and at the same
time the indignation Of the whole
community. And when these
revelations prove 10 be death
from the effects of an abortion,
and the victim young lady well known
and of progressing appearance, 1t Is
not to be wondered that the people are
excited and shocked. Without further
preface we will give the facts of the
case as far as elected.
Miss Alice Martin, daughter of Mr.
Bud Martin, employed at the planning
mill of r. J. Baggs & Co., notified her
parents Monday two weeks ago, that she
intended to make short visit to some
relatives in Steubenville, and would be
back in few days. 1t was her inten-
ton to have returned to her home
in Bridgeport the following Fri
dav, but on account Of sickness
was detained until Monday. Upon her
arrival home last Monday, she complain
ed to her mother of feeling unwell, and
continued to grow worse until her death
(which occurred ut FIVE o'clock Friday
morning last. Several women who yis-
tied the unfortunate girl, suspected that
she was suffering from the effects of an
abortion and upon being questioned, she
admitted that such was the case, and
named A woman in Steubenville, as the
