Water Main Burst,

The water main in West Orange street
west of Charlotte, sprang leak last night
and this morning a stream of water almost
as thick as mans arm ran from the broken
pipe. The managers of Peters & Shirk' 8
cotton mill declined to fire up this morn
ing lest the water should be cut off from
the mill, but they resumed operations
about 6 o'clock on being assured of full
supply of water. Repairs are now being
made.
A service pipe in South Queen street
near Hazel that had been leaking since Sat-
urday evening is being repaired to-day.

The cold suap of the past few days has
closed up the COnestoga and all the smaller
streams in this vicinity. The Susquehan
na, at Columbia, contains a great deal of
ice, but is not yet closed up. The canal,
however, is entirely closed, and the Read
ing railroad company talk of breaking it
open with steam ice-boats, as they have
over seven hundred car loads Of coal en-
route for Baltimore, some Of which is in
boats in the canal, some in the coal chutes,
ard some or cars between Reading and
Columbia.
The mercury in this city at daybreak
this morning ranged at from 8 to II above
zero, according to the greater or less ex-
posed position of thermometers. Many
hydrauts and water pipes are frozen or
burst, and the winter campaign of the fes-
tive plumber has fairly opened and he is Oh
the warpath conqucriDg and to conquer.
The ice on the Conestoga, near Levan: s
mill this morning, was about two inches
thick, and Joseph Roger, confectioner, was
busily engaged cutting it. He is the first
in the field, but the others will soon follow
should the thermometer keep down and
the barometer up.

Wheeling United Presby.ery

The Wheeling Presbytery OF the United
Presbyterian Church, convened at West
Alexander Yesterday. Rev. Balph, OF
st. Clairsvile, acted rs Moderator, and
Rev. Wier, of Martins Ferry, as Clerk.
Considerable business WAS dispatched.
Trial sermons were delivered by James
4. Anderson, OF that place, and Mr..
Giflin, of Ohio. Both young men acqult-
ted themselves very creditably and ac-
ceptable To the large audience that was
president TO hear them. The Presbytery
met in the large audience room Of the
Presbyterian church.
The United Presbyterian Church was
occupied by the Female. Missionary
Society, acting under the auspicies OF the
Wheeling United Presbytery.
This meeting was presided over by
Mrs Balph, Of St. Clairsyille. A good
deal Of missionary matter was attended
to and quite a number OF the Presbytcr-
ian ladies' of the Reformed sister congre-
CATION were present and joined with
their sisters OF the L. Z. Church in their
great and glorious work of foreign mis-
slOnS.
The ladies of the United Presbyterian
Church had very sumptuous dinner

bytcry and the ladies connected with

present were well pleased with their

farmers do-they wanted to he at home
to attend to their Spring crop. 5.

IN THE SHADOW,
Looking Down the Valley Of
Death-The Three Youthful
Murderers at Canton, Ohio,
Preparing for the GallOws.

Special Dispatch to the Enquirer.
CANTON, April l2.-One week IRON
to-day Governor Foster will hear the
arguments OF counsel in behalf OF George
Mann, in the jail here under sentence Of
death for participating in the murder OF
old man Wattmough, at Alliance, last
June. Your correspondent to-day IN
terviewed the prisoner and his fellows,
0hr and Sammet, also under sen
tcnce of death. Mann has
some hope that his sentence
will be commuted, as Governor Foster
is said to have promised that il it can be
proved beyond doubt that Mann did not
strike blow his sentence shall be mod
Grated.
The young culprit declares that he is
innocent Of committal OF the murder,
and AYERS that 0hr, his accomplice, did
all the fatal work. Mann told his story
with remarkable Clearness, and in his
detailed statement threw new light upon
some OF the evidence adduced against
him during the trial. He related all the
incidents of the murder with an appar-
ent frankness and unreserve, confessing
his exact connection with the terrible
crime and throwing the guilt OF its actual
commission upon Ohr.
Mann. whose age is about eighteen,
says he is reconciled to his fate and WI al.
Ing TO die il the Governor refuses to m
terierc. lie is becoming quite religious,
aud, though cheerful, exhibits consider
able concern as to his future welfare.
Ohr. on the other hand, makes fun OF
Mann's pretensions OF innocence and
repentance, aud claims that they are
both equally guilty. Governor Foster
has emphatically refused TO Interfere in
the case OF 0hr, and the prisoner said
to your correspondent to-day:
IL know I've got TO die, but | will be
game. ! amt going to weaken"
Ohr also made detailed statement OF
the incidents Of the crime, varying In
important particulars from that oil
Mann. Each claims that the other fin
ishcd the Job" of killing their victim,
and each exhibits bitter feelings toward
the other. Mann says Ohr has made
false statements, and is seeking to preju-
dice his case, aud Ohr declares that
Mann got him into the trouble, and is
now trying to get out OF it himself by
playing up nice boy "and religious mon
kevshines'
So bitter are these two young COM
paniOns in crime toward each other
that they are never allowed to have In
tercourso in the Jail. 1t is feared that il
they had an opportunity they would
fight and perhaps attempt to kill each
other.
The day set ior their execution, May
9TH, is near, and already Sheriff Alte-
kruse is making his preparations for the
dread event. Ii is thought by some,
however, that Governor Foster will stay
the execution until June 18th, when
young Sammet is to pay the death pen
atty. The probabilities are that on that
day three murderers, all under twenty
years OF age, will die on the scaiIold in
this city.

Of one OF their countrymen a, Fond du
Lac, Wis, are preparing % take out

comins American citizens. They are

this step by the Chinese Employment
Bureau, which vas organized in New
York some weeks since by q number oi
philanthropic men and women, who
were desirous OF protecting them from
the persecution 10 which "the little

THE TELEGRAPHIC OCTO-
PUS.
A Company Organized To Nip
Western Union Schemes I'm the


Philadelphia Times.
The announcement was made last
evening that company, composed oi
capitalists OF this city and some Of the
Eastern States had purchased the De
laucy Patent Telegraph Relay, an IN
strument claimed 10 be Il perfect substi-
tute for the Page patent, owned and
used by the Western Union. Inquiry
shows this tO hr true, the sale having
taken place in this city within the past
few days. and contract having been
made yesterday by the new owners
with Patrick X Carter, manufacturers oi
tclrsraphic machinery and supplies on
Second street, iur the construction OF
several hundred Instruments, to bo put
i'm use as soon rs possible. All this act
ION comes on the heels Oi the recent de
cisiun Of Judge BlatChiord, OF the
United Slater Circuit Court in New
York, granting the Western Union
Company AN injunction 10 restrain u To-
cal company OF that city, the Home
Burglar Alarm company, from iuiriug
ing on its patent right. This decision
affects not only all the opposition tcle-
graph companies Of the country, which
also use the Page patent, but all the
great railroad lines Of the country, the
PENNSYLVANIA, the Baltimore and Ohio,
the Union and Pacific aud oil Jay
GOUli's lines, every one Oi which Use
the Page patent and all OF which, 10y ap-
pliCatiOn in this recent suit against the
Burglar Alarm company IN New York,
from their own choice, became code
irndants Mr.. Delaney, the patentee OF
the new relay. explained the position Of
things. The Page patent he says, Is 50
iarrcachIng in It's effects rs to be as IN
dispenSablc 90 the telegraph system
50 lar as what Is known as thc Morse
system is Concerncd-as wheel Is 10 u
wagon. Necessarily, II Judge Batch
iord's decision is sustained by the high
or court, To which it will doubtless be
appealed, the Western Union company
will be able 20 make what terms u
plcases with all the railroad companies
and opposition telegraph lines and viii
have them completely m its power, So
far as their telegraph facilities are con-
cerned. To avert this the new COM
pany has organized and brought out the
Delaney relay. This, It u claimed, IS
not only a perfect substitute ior the
PAGE patent, but is superior to 1t, with
out at all being an infringement on It.
II VAS patented in 1875 by Patrick De
laney, formerly chief operator Of the
old Franklin Telegraph company and,
later. Superintendent OF the Southern
and Atlantic company, but has never
been in use, Tor the reason, as Mr. De
lanev explains, that the emergency has
never before arisen, the Western Tn
ION never having gone - lar as IT has IN
the present case with reference to It's
claims OF exclusive night to the Morse
patent. Delaney says he has parted
with his right on terms very 2dvanta'
seous to himself, and that iEc Inyen-
ton oi the new company Is to have his
relay in use in less than a month.
