West Virginia delegation, we're before the
House Committee on Judiciary to-day in
advocacy Of Colonel Wilson's bill chang.
ing the time for holding Congressional
elections in that State from the Tuesday
after the first Monday in November to the

ments in favor Of the bill were short and
the Committee unanimously agreed to re-
port the bill favorably.
Mr.. Kenna, Of West Virginia, appeared
before the Commerce Committee to-day
in advocacy Of his substitute for House
resolution 1929, to create department OF
Agriculture. The substitute provides for a
department OF industries, headed by the
new Cabinet officer, comprising two divi-
sioas, to wit: division OF agriculture and
a division OF commerce with commiss-
ioner at the head of each said division.
The Committee subsequently declined to
act as u committee upon the subject, and
informally approved the general character
OF the substitute, leaving its members free
to offer amendments in the house.

Mn HARMoN sESsEL, lawyer, Of Taylor
county, W. Va, serves notice upon the
Legislature to-day In another column that
he aud others propose to nominate and
vote Tor candidates for Congress in the old
districts, including member for the State
at large, unless the new districts are made
to conform to the Constitution aud laws oil
the United States and the Constitution Of
West Virginia. Thus an interesting point
is raised for the consideration OF the legis.
llture. II would really be n beautiful ap.
plication Of the great law Of "lex tnlionis,"
Or, in other words, OF hoist by
their own petard, II the Democracy, in
grabbing for everything, and thereto
twisting the State out of all
shape, should find themselves thrown
out OF Court altogether. The question
however is too deep for us to discuss. We
submit it to the great constitutional lights
OF the Democracy, for whom it is especially
intended. They know, however, us well
as We do that their redistricting does not
conform to the requirements of the Con.
stitution Of West Virginia, 1t was Just
such piece of work, however as might be
expected Of crowd that in order to assure
their party supremacy arbitrarily added
two Democratic Senators at the expense of
large unrepresented populations in other
counties.

FIRE RECORD.

CLEVELAND, March "a Soon after 2
o'clock this morning 4 fire OF unknown
origin broke out IN W. p. Southworth's
wholesale and retail grocery store, No. IA

the large block except the ruined walls,
and the adjacent buildings are more or less
seriously damaged. SOuthworth's loss is

which they claim is totally destroyed; in

loses between 10000 and 81, 600, insur-
ance $4,000. Chandler & Rudd, grocers,
Mrs Wilson, hair store, and two neichbor-
ing shoe stores were damaged perhaps one
hundred dollars each. The fact that the
fire was first discovered in the part OF
SOuthwOrth's store where the most in.
tiammablc material is kept, strongly points
to incendiarsm. Very soon after the
blaze was inst seen by policeman, the
stock OF gasoline and coal oil exploded and
the whole building was immediately
atlnme. A searching Investigation will be
made
Within a few minutes after the alarm
was sounded for the down town fire, an
other came from an up town district, about
a mile away, requiring the presence Of sew
enll engines and companies which had
started for Ontario street. The second fire
started in II. Campbell's dwelling on Sago
street and spread to the neighboring houses
and barns on Cedar avenue until three
dwellings and four barns and sheds were
soon destroyed and others more or less
damaged. The aggregate loss is not yet as
certainable. It is supposed this also was
an incendiary Gre, and set to divide the fire
department and insure greater dcstruc-
