Tbc HrdH has announced the organization of
"1ho Ncw-York Produce Exchange and Maritime
Association Independent Merchants Cleveland and
Hendricks Club" Of 1873 members and stated that
its president and many others were Republicans.
The organization of such club with 1873 members
would seem for uIdablc 10 those who do not know
that the membership Of the Produce Exchange
alone Is 5000. Its true Inwardncss is free-tradc
and nothing else. Mr.. John =. Townsend, the pres
idcnt, is an officer of the New York fTee-lrade
Club and many of the others who are mentioned
as Republicans are in sympathy with him. Their
admiration for Mr. Cleveland is due only to the
satisfaction they feel that he would be their ally
and assistant, and the most appropriate name they
could have selected would be " he New-York Pro-
ducc and Maritime Independent Merchants Free

The recent incendiary fires in Cleveland
seem to furnish strong argument against the
election of Democratic candidate for Con-
gress III that district-one Foran. He is dem
ngogue of the worst type apparently, for in
recent speech, as reported in a Democratic
paper, he remarked significantly that little
dynamite under the water mains and gas pipes
might easily plunge the city into trouble lie
added that he hoped nothing of the kind would
be done. Yet something very like it has been
done, and naturally the honest residents of
Cleveland are wondering if it would not be a
good plan to show their disapproval of such
COmmunistic sentiments as Foran uttered by
defeating him overwhelmingly on election day.
We think it would.

THOSE CRUEL WHEELS

Again Crush Out Young Life-Jacob
wannacker the Victim.
Yesterday afternoon, about halfpast 5
o'clock, Jacob Wsnnscker, brakeman on
the c. 1 P railroad, was run over BY q
freight train at Bridgeport and instantly
killed. Unlike most acc dents on railroads,
the company was not to blame for this
death. The particulars of thus sad affair
are as follows: Freight train No IS was
engaged in side tracking two cars at Bridge
port. Warnaeker was the brakeman, and
after safely landing his cars on the siding,
started for the main track; his lantern went
ont. and while standing on the main track
attempting TO relght his lantern the train
backed knocking him down, the wheels pass
ing over his body and crushing his life out
instantly. The deceased is single man
and his people live in Pennsylvania.

Wheeling has suddenly got the roller
skating fever and has it very badly. With
every village around US sporting rink, W
had none, but now the boom is coming.
There was quite lively competition for the
lot on Virginia street, the site Of the D 'md-
cratic wigwam, but it was secured by c. II.
Rose, Of this city, and DR.. G. A. Simous, Of
Oswego, N. Y, who will put up the Pa-ilion
Rink. The contracts have been already
let and they expect to open the Pavilion on
Christmast night. The opening night will
be fine send-off, as the managers will have
the Decker family, or the best in the couu-
try, to be present.
The rink will be 120x52 feet, and will
have raised balcony for spectators and a
music stand. The floor will be polished
surface of curly maple with raised turns,
lust as a race track or a railroad tSack is
thrown up at the turns. Wheeling will now
have a frst-class rink, and will undoubtedly
pstronize it well.

BARS TO EE DRAWN
And Eight Glass Honses to Shut
Down To-day.
Manufacturers and Workmen Hay, Con-
Decentralization OF Time Refused
No Agreement in Terms.

To-day the bars will be drawn at the eight
flint glass factories stretching along the
other side of the river, and they will close
down for an indefinite period. By this, be-
tween 500 and 1000 mel, boys and girls
will be thrown out Of work, and o: least 500
families placed in aprecarious condition
The factories included are the following
Elson and Buckeye, Martins Ferry; La
Belle, Bridgeport; Bsmont L'ntern Works,
Rodefer Bros, Etna and the G ,blet Works,
Bellaire. The LaBelle has been closed for
some time, and will now be joined by the
others.
The difficulty between the owners and
the men is in relation to the system OF pay
ing for work. At present the men are paid
by the move and the manu- a2turers desire
to substitute for this the piece system as in
vogue in Pittsburg. A move" consists OF
so many pieces aud the men get so much a
move, without regard to the number of per
feet or imperfect pieces turned out. AT
Pittsburg the piece system was Inaugural
ted after a strike Of fifteen months, the men
finally yielding. Last week the owners
of the eight factories named posted notices
that on December II the piece system
would be inaugurated and that unless the
men signifed their willingness the bars
would be drawn. AS the men refused to
accept the bars were ordered drawn. The
conference was held st X. of P. Hall al
Bellaire yesterday afternoon AID resulted in
an utter disagreement.
There are two sides to this question of a
system. The men claim that the piece sys-
tenn is an injustice to them, as they lose BY
oil the breakage that occurs after the war
leaves their hands and before 1t reaches the
selecting room.
The manufacturers, on the other hand
claim the move system is al injustice to
them, as they pay as much for turn with
so per cent. good ware as with 80 per cent.
and that the system offers no inducement to
skilled labor.
In any event and viewed from any stand
point, the affair is deplorable one and will
be generally regretted.

TO HEADS OF FAMILIES.
The Important Part That X. j. smyth pla!
In Roth Christmas and New Year.

The Important Part That X. j. Smyth plays
In Both Christmas and New Year.
Christmas is almost here. The prudent
householder, with the fond parent, has al
ready decided upon the presents which are
to gladden. the home on that great day and
shopping is proceeding with the customary
holiday fervor. In connection with the pur-
chase of Christmas goods, there's always to
be borne in mind the great fact that pres
ents may come and presents may 60,
but the table must be furnished
forever. The Christmas dinner forms no
unimportant part OF the day and if it IS not
a success, the holiday is total failure. In
the light, therefore, Of memorable Christ
mas, the grocery is mightier than the novel
ty store, and the plum pudding ranks the
Christmas stocking Where shall the in
gradients of this mighty pastry be
purchased? Where shall we 20 for
our raisins, currants, citron and the
other delcacies that enter into its compost,
tion2 Where shall our nuts, our mincemeat
and our other groceries both fancy and
staple, be bought? In answer, we would
say, always seek the establishment with the
best reputation and which has the greatest
business at stake. In Wheeling, r. j.
Smyth stands at the head of the retail gro
GERS. His establishment at the coraer Of
| Market and Fourteenth streets, has for year:
been recognized as the leading house of it:
class and by consistent fair dealing and
strict business integrity he has built up 9
commercial reputation that now stands him
in great stead. Being large buyer he car
command prices that enable him to sell the
FIRST quality of goods at figures that can no
be touched BY others. For the christina
season, besides the usual stock Of groceries
in constant demand, he has laid in al
assortment of goods, including delcacies
canned and dried fruits figs, raisins, cur
a is, dates, Atmore's mince meat, etc, etc'
especially for the holiday larder. For quail
ity, extent variety, and especially for it
standard excellence and bed rock prices, tn
stock of r. J. Smyth excels anything
Wheeling has yet seen.

AS an inducement to laughter the above

ceeded in making a play that is interesting

un"tt:e in having such star and such a
company as supports Miss Frances

Bishop as Muggs, has found q
part that fits her to nicets--petite, pretty
and piquant. She is the embodiment Of

voice, dances admirably and is in every re-
spect the peer of Annie PixleY in M lisa, I"

lady in youth and beauty. The company
was greeted By good audience last evening,
and The universal verdict was excellent Mr..

agent, shared the honors equally with the
star. He is comedian, reminding Us of
