happiest results for Rheumatism and when

RAILROAD RACKET.
Pertinent Points Concerning Railroads
Generally Nearby Notes-

The new time table on the b. & o. has
been found to be incOnvenient to many Of
the commercial travellers who go out early
in the morning. To make time at all they
must take the train that leaves between l
and 2 A. NJ, which is a little early.
The Bellaire Independent says: We are
panied to remark that the Ohio Valley rail-
road project. which started so auspiciOuSly
last week in this city, is now as dead as a
mackerel again. There were those ready
and willing to help, at least they so de-
clared, and now the project is just where it
was two weeks standing still.
The contract for the first &c miles OF the
Pittsburgh and MonOngahela Valley rail
road has been awarded TO James H. Con-
nor. who will within q few days have 500
men at work. There will be one tunnel
on the line and several bridges, and it will
tap one of the finest coal and iron fields in
West Virginia.
The approaching election, which Will de-
termine the fate of the Wheeling and
Parkersburg road, is attaching very little
attention, and we haer but little discussion
of the matter on the street. This is by far
the most important road that has offered
to come to Wheeling yet, and Wheeling
should DO something to get it,
The recent movements OF 4 o. officials
in and around Washington, Pa, have re-
awakened hope in the breasts CT many per-
sons along the line of the Hempfield eX-
tension, and there is a remote possibility
that it may be built. President Garrett and

THE STRIKE.
No Change in n Situation Of Affairs
Nor Likely TO be Any.

There is no change tn the status of the
iron strike in this vicinity. The forge de.
partments of the several mills are of, and
the factories will close down Wednesday
night.
Mr.. n. Z. Whitaker, OF the Whitaker
iron works, says he was led to believe from
an article in the REGISTER Saturday morn
ing last that he was not disposed to fix
matters with his men. The reverse OF that
idea was exactly what the REGISTER wished
to convey. We say now as We said then,
that there was a rumor current on the
streets to the effect that Mr.. Whitaker in
tended signing the scale, and from the tone
of his conversation when asked about it
we obtained an opposite idea. We certain
" meant no injustice to Mr.. Whitaker, in
the matter. As we now understand mat
tiers, there is only a difference OF minor
importance between employer and employe
at the Whitaker mill, which is likely to be
arranged, and this mill will run on as usual.
The action of the delegates of the First
District, at Pittsburg, Saturday, in reatirm.
ing their original position, has induced a
feeling of confidence in the breasts OF all
here, and the strike is likely to be a stub
bornly contested one. -. -,
The advance in the price OF cutting nails
as contemplated by the new scale, Is $40
cents per keg.
