THE VOLCANO FIRE.
ALLEGED IsCcENOIARY ARRESTED.
A Man UnsnOwingly Crininates Himself N
the Presence Of Witnesses-lmPortant
Revelations Looked fOr-Par-
tieulars Of the Affair.


VOLCANO, W. A., AuSuSt q.
Special Dispatch 10 the Register.
Since the great fire on the morning Of
the 4th inst, scarcely any one has
sought his eOueh within the borders OF
the town who has net expected 10 be
awakened during the night by the fur
ther work Of distinction. Every one
seems yigilant and on the alert, and this
morning the excitement reached high
pitch when il was known that James
W. Fry, one of the watchmen on duty
the night OF the 6re, was arrested as ae-
cessory to the act. c. L. Cole. Of Park
ersburg, who is interested in oil pro
perty here, was on the ground looking
after his interests. Sometime during
the night Of the lith he was in stable
looking after his horse, when voices ar
rested his attention. Being on the alert,
he discovered Fry and another man in
close proximity discussing the origin OF
thefire. Frywas considerably in liquor,
AMI in answer 10 some remark OF ms
companion, said he knew who
the incendiaries were, and could
put his band on them at
any moment-said he clearly saw them
an I knew who they were. At this juno
ture, another man came 10 the stable
AM discovered the presence OF Mr.
Cole, with whom he entered into cOnver-
sation. thus revealing to Fry the fact
that Cole was in the stable all the time,
an I, Of necessity, overheard what passed
between him and his companion.
Shortly after, Fry accOSted Cole and
asked him il he had overheard hum talk
in >, and Cole answered in the athrma-
tive. Fry wanted Cole 10 take drink
with him from bottle OF beer in his
possession, but Cole refused. Fry then
urged Cole To promise that he would
not make use Of what he had heard, but
Cole told him that ii it would benefit
the public, he would most certainly
make II known. Fry threatened him II
he would reveal the conversation, but
As Cole backed up his arguments with =
revolver, no effort vas made TO iOrce
matters. Cole at once made INQUIRY
for notary public, and the telephone
communicating with the residence OF Mr..
w. c. Stiles, Jr., mile distant, was
utilized, and in a short time Mr..
Stiles, accompanied by Mr.. +. W.
Staples. a notary public, put in an ap-
pearanee, when Mr. Cole depOse,l, in ef-
feet, what is stated above. An officer
at Parkersburg was promptly tele-
grIphed, and at the breakfast tables in
Volcano this morning the news OF Fry 5
arrest by a county official was the main
topic OF conversation, and meals were
hastily dispatched in order to get the
particulars.
Many think that Fry Is in possession
OF the facts regarding the whole affair,
AMI that he will reveal the inside work
inys OF a conspiracy as damnable as the
MOliie Mcguire organization of Pennsyi-
yani Ii this proves true other arrests
will soon follow, and West Virginia
may vet figure as prominently IN the
annals of crime as her neighboring State.

SteUbcnville Gazette.
The proprietor OF the Herald in the
role of a pugihst would be a ludicrous
sirht. and yet-ves, yes-begod-he did
the said proprietor of the Herald chal-
lenged W. X. Allison this morning for
combat without gloves. 1t seems that
Mr.. Allison intends committing the
aM iul crime of starting another Repub-
hcan paper in Steubenville, which VIII
be in opposition to the Herald, and
Conn doesn't like it bit. He doesn't
like il a bit better than Allison liked
il when Conn on two occasions
started papers in opposition to Allison
in times gone by. This morning ALI
son prepared a nice advertisement to
the effect that the Ohio Press, W. +.
Allison, editor, would make its first
issue on August 22d. He called at the
Herald office with it to have it inserted
in the advertising columns, which was
legitimate. COnn's attention was called
10 the advertisement and he remarked:
"NO, no, begOd; we won'tinsert it-no.
Damn YOU, Allison, you got $4,000
out OF me once He then
proceed TO call Allison a damned
scOundrel and other harsh unfraternal
names only INDUCED in by Conn. Then
ne told Allison he could lick him, and
invited him out into back room with
the aonchdlance of prize-ighter; and
although Allison is bigger man than
Conn he refused to accompany the
spider into its parlor, or go with the
lion into its den. Therefore the fight
didn't come of. We suppose, had they
elinched and Conn succeeded in whip
ping Allison, it would have settled the
Ohio Press, and the prospective oppOsi-
ton would have gone glimmering.
