The Managers to Blame For the Beliai<o

Tho Managers to Blame For shs Beliaire
Steel Plant Trouble.
Yesterday we noted the fact, says the Bel
laire Independent, that the Bsllaire steel
plant had met with so many difficulties thst
the men were given little better thss no em.
ployment at all since the puddlefs have
been discharged. The management, tired
of the delay and consequent idleness Of the
nail works at time when they desired to
work. have been CALLING in the harness for
some time, and have been busy trying 10
find out the real cause OF the trouble. AZ
ter searching everything from low to high
they have finally concluded that the men
who have been at the head OF the steel
works were at fault and an
opportunity has been given them
to resign. rs the designations areRot forth
coming, the only alternative will beresorted
to, and the Bellaire steel plant put in
charge of other men. From the time the
works started there has been great deal Of
dissatisfaction, bat it was not thought best
10 make haste too fast, but the mater
finally assumed this shape as near as We
can learn: The Bellsire steel plant was
operated on the same plan, the same pro
cess of steel making parsued as IN
other steel plants, the same materials used
rs when the best Of stesl was made;
and yet real good nail steel was not forth
coming. The fault must lay in the han
ding, the management thought, and after
thorough investigation determined upon
what is stated above So complete
change will take place in the steel plant
conduct. We shall wait for further devel-
opments, but when the best quality of nail
steel is made just across the river, there
certainly ought not to be any trouble in
producing the best quality on this side,
when all the conditions are the same. with
proper management.

Killed by n Fall.

On Tuesday afternoon, Of last week
while party of men were at work on the
span Of the new bridge, at Marietta, the
timbers gave way and precipitated Thomas
Klutter one of the workmen, to the river
beneath. A large truck on which was a
stone weighing several hundred pounds
went over with him, the stone going first
Klutter next, and the heavy truck last but
in time TO strike him on the head as he rose
in the water. He at once sank beneath the
water, and did not appear again until pulled
out by his fellow workmen, corpse. How
the other men escaped is miracle, as the
letting down OF the timbers was so sudden.
The cause of the disaster was defect in
one Of the heavy 3x8 inch oak planks,
which the closest scrunity failed to detect
Mr.. Merydith, the contractor, made all the
arrangements for the funeral, which occur
red Wednesday, and settled all the bills.
He is not to blame for the accident, as
every precaution was used to prevent any,
this being the first one he has had while en-
gagged in bridge work. ..-.'. .-

Whence Comes Republican Campaign
Thunder eFi
For West Virginia Headquarters Of Their
Executive Committee---How the Cor
upt Fund is Now Collected.


For the present, alone, Democratic head
quarters are FIN the saddle" but the Re-
pubIcans have already established their lit
erary bureau and gone into the distributing
business. In the second story of Odd Eel
lows hall, on Chapline street. facing the
East, are two rooms connected by a small
door. No mark or sign on the entrance
gives a clue to the interior, but those room
are the Olympus OF West Virginia Repubi-
cans, from whence comes all their cam
paign thunder In short, they are
the headquarters of the Republican State
Executive Committee. Here is where the
Big Chief, G. Wesley Atkinson, is wont to
come and lay those deep, dark plans by
which West Virginia is to be captured in
October Here is where in the wild mag
ination of some, is the huge safe which con-
tains West Virginia's portion Of the corrup-
ton fund, wrung from the many employees
of our Uncle Samuel Here, also, is where
Mr.. Chairman Cowden, the pleasant-faced,
long-headed boss of the committee, presides
in all the dignity of president, or spends
leisure hours meditating on Shakespeare
divine comedy, Loves Labor Lost.
Feeling very much like Dante, REGIS
TER reporter entered these rooms, Yesterday
afternoon. The bare floor echoed to his
footsteps and the plain walls innocent Of
design, save funny looking cut of Blaine,
stared reproachfully at the intruder. In one
corne, stood some empty boxes, surrounded
by small piles of campaign documents, bear
ing the frank of prominent Republican Con
gressmen, while few fragments Of pape ;
were scattered about An advertisements o
a Blaine sign-maker, flung itself into one
corner, and a three-legged chair completed
the picture, which might be suggestive Of
work, but was anything but attractive.
The other room must be the sanctum
sanctorum Of the committee-the hatchery
rs it were, of campaign schemes the re-
porting ground when back counties sent in
their tai, of men. In went the reporter.
A gentleman writing at desk in the corner
looked up and said good day He had a
bald head, small auburn moustache, and
wore a white vest and tie. It was D, G.
Schofeld, Secretary Of the Committee, bust
" at work. On the desk was a book con-
tanning a poll of the voters in the State and
he was comparing some of the names with
hose in letter he had Just opened
A stove and desk, with three or four
chairs, made the room an improvement
over the other. 1t had pictures, too. There
is one Of Gen, Grant, in full regimentals
and there opposite,-no, your eyes do not
deceive you!-is a companion one Of Gen
Lee "A relic of the last occupant" said
Secretary Scho6eld, with a sigh and a
smile.
The committee has not yet sent out
many campaign documents, but is expect
ng large supply soon. 1t has sent out a
treat many copies of that delectable sheet,
the New York Tribune, and some Of the
Irish World. Blaines letter of acceptance,
in pamphlet form has been mailed rather
extensively.

not notice the pole was down, the night being
very dark, and collided with it with great
force, knocking her senseless to the ground.
After she had been resuseitated her friends
assisted her as far as the waiting room at
Frank Walters, where they intended to
wait for the nine o'clock motor, bound to-

find that the proprietor for some reason,

John Ritz, of this city in the event of his
failure to make race with James Morris
the Boston sculler Priddy has forwarded
500 TO Boston as q forfeit, to cover the
challenge issued ty Norris. He is willing
to give or take expenses and row the race
either on some of the local courses or at
Boston, but thinks the latter city will prob.
ably be agreed upon. The race is to take
place within four weeks from the date of
signing articles. In case the negotiations
for race with Norris fail, Prddy says he will
make three mile race with Ritz, the Wheel
ing sculler, for $500 side. The only con-
dition he names is that the race take place
at the Braddock course, and he will row $50
for expenses. When asked whether the Oak
Point course, over which Ross and Teemer
rowed their recent race, was full length or
not, Priddy, who witnessed the struggle
smiled significantly and replied that the
time was exceedingly fast for full four
miles. His statements rather threw dis
credit on the glowing pictures of the race as
painted by the Eastern press.
