which were now bidding fair to monopo!iz.
It, rendering travel insecure, and virtually
closing up 70 many citizens Of Ohio and Mar

net believe that the legal rights OF the many
should be sacrificed for the private interests
OF q few.
George B. Caldwell, Esq, was called upon
to state what prospects there were OF success
In case OF resort 10 legal measures, and stated
to the meeting at length that the Elm Grove
X. r. Co., according 10 the act OF the Legisla-
ture, had no right to use steam as a motive
power, unless they used such motors as
would not frighten horses, and from what he
could learn, the testimony on that point
would be conclusive, that they did frighten
horses badly, snd rendered travel OF the
road insecure. He believed further that the
action Of the Legislature giving the company
the right to use steam motors on the road was
invalid, being at variance with the conditions
upon which 1t was coded to the State by the
National Government.

DEATH OF DIR. TODD,
wheeIIng's oldest Physician and an
HOnored Citizen.

WheelInH's Oldest Physictan ana an
Honored Citizen.
DR.. Archibald s. Todd, for over half q cen
fury one OF the leading physiciansof Wheel
ing, died yesterday morning at his residence
on Fourteenth street, aged IS years. Thus
another OF the old and honored ~citiE.ns,
who serve 10 uhite the living present with
the fading past, Is lost from among his fellow
men, though DR.. Todd had filed too large q
place in local affairs TO soon be forgotten,
albeit his active career ended several years
ago.
Dr.. Todd was born April 10, 1898, In Wash
ington county, New York. Upon attaining
his majority, In 1878, he came TO Wheeling,
aud studied medicine with his brother, Dr..
NJ. L. Todd, and afLerward at ~Transylvania
University. Lexington, Ky. He began 70
practice his profession here In 1924, and
prosecuted 1t with increasing success for over
bali a century. II was active In the iorma-
ton OF every medical organization ever
formed in Wheeling or In West Virginia, and
was alSo a member OF the American Medical
Association.
In the educational and municipal afaitsof
Wheeling, also, DR.. Todd took 4 prominent
part acting Us School Commissioner for 0
number OF ears, and was also q member OF
the City Council for several consecutive
terms.
He was likewise q leading spirit Sunday
School work, early Identifying himself With
the Church and living a consistent Christian
life.
Dr.. Todd leaves a wife and two daughters,

The cigar manufacturers Of thi, city held
another meeting on tue last night OF April
and fixed upon prices. common stogies. will
be sold four for a nickel, but there Is no DIFF.
ference in the retail price Of pressed stogies
or other cigars. Wholesale prices are re.
duced, and stogies will be sold at from $3.50
to $lO.60 per thousand. As 10 wages, they
decided 10 pay whatever is paid In Wheeling;
hence, II the men are working for the nd.
yanced price In Wheeling to-day, the same
price will be paid here. This fixing Of prices
by our home dealers hardly seem, fair. The
consumer gets no benefit whatever except on
real commen stogies, unless he turns him
self into a wholesale buyer. IL looks like a
reduction for the rich and none Tor the poor.
