ROUGH AND READY RATTLED.
West Virginia Fails to Play BAL
Against the Pennsylvanias.

4 dispatch from Uniontown to Pitts
burg paper says: The much .talked-of base
ball game between the Lafsyettes, OF I'm
iontown. and the Rough and-Readys, OF
Morgantown, w. Va, was played on the
grounds of the latter on the Fourth. The
"Roughs" had been claimed IS one of the
best mines in West Virginia, but they were
unable to cope with the I.afayettes. They
had Smith, of Wheeling, to pitch for
them, but our boys pounded him all over
the field, while they could not get on to
FrostS curves. The Morgantown sports
backed their team heavily, and our boys
brought home plenty of West Virginia
cash. A big CROW witnessed the game, as
il was a gala day in Morgantown. The
Lafsyettes had the game from the begin
ming, as appears from the following score
by innings:
Rough and Ready. 002 2-il
ayette................. IL ) 2-35
A bad state of feeling has grown out OF
the game. The Laiayettes complain Of the
shabby treatment shown them by the
Rough and Readys" Our boys were to
get sixty per cent. of the gate money,
which amounted to fifty five dollars. The
Roughs refused to give them cent and
sent letter down to the hotel informing
the Lafayettes that they ought to be salts
fled with the victory without any money.
They would not even pay hotel expenses.
Our boys attribute this treatment to the
home clubs chagrin at their defeat. They
were organized two years ago, have played
twenty-three games snd never we're van.
pushed until yesterday. The citizens of
Morgantown so shaned their home club for
their discourtesy that they finally decided

"what IL being done by the Swift Dressed
Beef Company, with their refrigerator on
Water street?' asked q reporter of citizen
whom he supposed was conversant with
their business in this city. He said: ~
do not really know. Everything is at q
stand still at present, but it will be but .
very short time until the company has
several car loads Of meat on our markets,
and then We can eat beef at least two cents
cheaper on the pound"
The gentleman would not give the re-
porter any information other than that
above stated.
A short time afterwards the reporter &C
costed prominent butcher and asked MIN
for information regarding the cheapness OF
the meat soon to be put upon the market.
He said: "Well, there is not much in it as
far as I can ascertain. That firm cannot
put meat on the Wheeling market for one
cent less than we are now selling 1t Tor.
Il is really preposterous for any person to
talk of their doing it.
Can they buy beef cheaper in this city
than in Chicago" .
We'll, beef is retailing in Chicsgo for
much higher figure than is pad IN this
market, and II tnat nrm eau SOU ooct hoie
at such a figure as to allow the retailer to
sell it for less than it is nov be-
ing sold, why is il that they do
not sell it to the Chicago
retail men at still lower figure than they
possibly can Wheeling men? Now really
do not take much stock in it, for this rea-
son: If the Wheeling butchers were stu
ated like they are in the large Eastern
cities, then this firm might establish Q
trade here. The Wheeling butchers all
have their own slaughter houses and small
pieces of land. In the larger cities they
nave not these advantages, hence when
firm like that comes into the city all they
have to do is to sell dressed meat at a small
reduction and thereby gain the trade OF the
retailers. But in this city every butcher
retails his own meat and can under
sell any outside firm, or at least sell at the
same figure. | have no doubt that TINS
firm will sell dressed meats here, but they
will never revolutionize the butchers
trade or prices here; at least, not until the
retail price of beef reaches lower Inquire
in Chicago than is paid here, and we al
know at this time that the Chicago retail
market price Of meat is far in excess OF
any price ever paid in the city OF Wheel

RAILROAD MATTERS.
Conference on 0hie county's Sub
scriptisn


Yesterday morning Colonel George w.
Thompson, Colonel Robert White and MIR.
w. F. Peterson, representing the Ohio
River Railroad Company, waited upon Mr..
Joseph Speidel, Of the Board OF Conn
missioners, and requested him to turn over
the 81, 900 subscribed by Ohio county to
the capital stock of the company. The
conference had no result and the matter
now remains in statu quo, Mr.. Speidel still
retaining the money as the agent OF the
county.
HOW 1T CANE.
When the bonds Of the county were cash
ed, the money was placed in the hands OF
Mr.. Speidel by order Of the Board, to be
paid over by him upon the receipt OF the
proper certificates OF stock. He deposited
the $4,000 with the Exchange Bank and
took a certificate of deposit. Shortly after
ward he offered to pay it over to MIR. Peter.
son, but the stock certificates were not
ready. Then 8 rumor reached the Board
that an agreement had been entered into
between the River road and the b. & D., by
which the latter would allow the former the
use of its track from Benwood to Mounds
vile: whereupon the Board decided to
withhold the money until assurance was
gwen THAT no SUCH dSTccIuCnS Wdo III iOlSS.
So the matter now stands. The county has
issued twenty bonds of 81 900 each, bearing
AZ per cent. interest, payable in twenty
years, and the money is now lying at the
Exchange BInk.
THE CONFERENCE.
Last evening the REGISTER reporter called
upon Mr.. Speidel and asked what took
place at the conference. He replied that
literally nothing had been done, but
'things had been told that he did not
think belonged to the public. But so far
as any arrangement was concerned, tue
meeting had no result
what does the county want?
The short of the matter is the county
wants to see that agreement between the U.
r. r. K. Co. and the B. Il D. r. K. Co. TO be
satisfied that the former intends building
an independent line"
What did those gentlemen say?
THAT, don't think am at liberty to
tell. They talked some OF taking legal
steps to compel the payment Of the money,
but of course We don't scare and we nave
| attorneys to protect our interests.
What did you say
II made several propositions and they
were rejected. There is no reason, guess
| why you shouldn't be told them. pro-
! posed that the agreement be submitted 70
| the President of our Board and then, II he
| took the liberty of ordering me to turn
over the money, would do so. Then l
| proposed to meet with the Board at It's OIL.
! ics and talk it over. Or, if they didn't
want to leave it to the Board, | proposed
to select three men they to choose one,
l to choose a second and those two to select
the third. None of these were acceptable
and The conference ended. There was
re lily nothing in it and nothingof which to
make an interview. Everything was very
pleasant and we parted in very good
| humUr."
Col. Thompson went down the river,
sterday morning, to attend to some bust
| ne,s connected with the road.

THE TRADE DOLLAR WAR.
Why the FURRY Began and what will
Result.


A financier of this city, in recent in
teryiew with REGISTER reporter, said he
believed the alarm about the trade dollar
and its depreciation were brought about by
speculation. This is also the opinion OF
Col. Snowden, superintendent Of the mint
at Philadelphia, though ne also believes
there were other elements working behind
it. 1t should be remembered, he said, that
fol several years the coin has been either
repudiated or taken at near its intrinsic
value in many sections of the country.
SPECTATORS have been busy at these points
collecting the dollars to ship them to other
places, where they were accepted at par;
~ fear" continued Colonel Snowuen,
that no argument, however specious, Will
keep the people Of a section up to the point
of receiving a coin at 100 cents on the
dollar which is not a legal tender tender,
has no place or point of redemption, which
is refused and repudiated in other sections
and which when run through the melting
furnace, the only redemption left 1t, comes
out with value of $3.50 on the nominal
dollar, payable in standard dollars
The Superintendent thought that the
honor and self.respect Of the nation require
an end to the present condition OF affairs.
The people, he thougnt, coulu coupet Cou
gress to relieve the country at its next
meeting In response to the question
what he would advise holders to do in the
present emergency, Superintendent Snow
don said that he would not take the re-
sponsibility OF advising any one on the
point raised. Nevertheless it was his opin.
ion that it was best to resist the demand
of the speculator," and trust to Congress
giving relief. He had not much doubt but
such persons as did 80 would receive par
for the coin. The authority to exchange
trades for standards would at once lift the
former to par with the latter, and, in his
Judgment, the actual change would be
very gradual, as both coins would circa-
late at the same rate. The coin can only
be received as bullion at the mint, pur
chased at the current market rate OF silver,
which is based upon the London quotation.
At the present price of slver-ls l0d an
ounce-the trade dollar yields, when new,
$50 cents, when battered about Sc.

The Same Old Talk.

The old story of a B. X. o. short line, By
wi ich Wheeling is 10 be left out in the
cold. was revived yesterday, and gives a
slightly different turn. This time it is
talked about that the 3, Il o. has been
quietly surveying route from Greenfield,
in Washington county, Pa, on the Monon-
gahela river, to Esston Siding, on the
Main stem of the b. Il o., in Marshall
county, this State. This road will pass
through Washington and Greene counties,
Pennsylvania, and Marshall county in this
State, passing through a fertile and
valuable section of country. 1t is
intended by this means to make a
straight road from the Monongahela River
to The main stem of the b. & o., and
thence over the bridge at Bellaira west. By
this road the necessity for building the
Hempfield extension from Washington,
Pa, to Greenfield will be obviated and
muC shorter route obtained The grades
will be low and easy and on account of the
water courses the road will be cheaply and
easily constructed. The distance will BE-
from 40 to 90 miles according to the route
selected
All talk OF this kind is discredited here
Nothing positive is known beyond head
quarters in the East, and all reports are

The CENTRAL GAS WELL.
Recovering the Tools and Removing

The greatest interest is manifested in the
progress of the gas we'll at the Central Glass
Works, as much depends upon the result
Il the work. 1t is expected By the con.
tractors that the well will be in condition
for boring by the first of next week. At
present they are engaged in digging out
the rope attached to the tools in the hot
tom. and which seems waddsd into a solid
mass. The gas Is still burning az the end
Of the extension pipe, but not 50 vigorous
~ as at first, showing the gas to be ooztng
up through the debris az the bottom.
The mode OF removing tie rope is quite
interesting. \ cutting tool, sharply
pointed and with blrbed sides, is darted
INTO the rope, cutting it into frsg uents. At
intervals a galvanized iron pipe is 10 Sered
and the fragments are pumped into it,
when it is raised and emptied This pro
cess will be repeated until all OF the rope is
removed. wien the work of removing the
broken sand pump will begin. When IL IS
taken ont, the we'll will be in con iition
for boring and the tools will be lowered
The depth is now something under 30
feet and it is thought less than 30 feet
more will be sufficient.
