Mill Matter,

A little row occurred on Friday night IN
a South End saloon, which tends to show
which way the wind blows in the nail
trouble. Several nailers and feeder naIlers
met and some hot words ensued, which I'm
aIy resulted in blows. Two Of the latter
were knocked down By some one, but who
they could not soy as the confusion was so
great. One of the men who was knocked
out informed Officer Gru5ler of the affair,
but as he was unable to tell who struck him
The officer could DO nothing in the matter.
II il said that ten OF the feeders working
IN machines proceeded to a hardware store
he next dsy and each purchased a revolver
in order to protect themselves should they
De attacked.
A reporter was informed last night that
the feeders now working, would, some time
This week, get out a paper containing a hst
OF the nailers who are said 10 have accepted
machines under peculiar circumstance
during a former strike. This, one OF the
men said. will De done in order 10 return
the compliment rendered them IN the list

A Wheeling manufacturer in speaking ID
a Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette reporter,
makes use OF the following language in re
ard 10 the outcome of the present difficult
" with the nailers: There can be but one
outcome. The nailers will submit. Every
thing is against them in this contest. The
fact that the Bellaire mill has signed and is
II. uorL arruaa nothinp ga the authorities
of that mill signed the scale months ago
under specific agreement with the nallers.
The other manufacturers will ignore the
Bellsire mill, which is in sympathy with
them and iudorses their tight for a reduced
scale. All OF them are strongly in favor OF
standing out all winter. Indeed, some OF
them have begun to arrange tor this step.
The nailers must submit 10 the manutactur

SIR: You have given publicity in your

THE OHIO
Receiver Thomas X. sharp Talks About Its
prnanaCtz

Prospects.
Receiver Thomas r. Sharp, of the Central
Ohio road, in q recent talk with a reporter,
said: The road will be sold under a de-
cree of the court on the 22d of October.
The arrangement is for the first ~bondholders
TO huy it in, ~reorgapize it and:operate It. L
shall likely have control of its o~peranon'
The road was formerly composed Of two d.
visions, one extending from Charleston w.
Va. 10 Corning, O., a distance OF III miles.
From Charleston the roads follows the
Great Kapawha to its mouth at Point
Pleasant, where il crosses the Ohio over a
MAGNIFICENT bridge. This bridge is also IN
E,isa,ion and will be sold on October 10.
1t Will become part of the property OF the
genera. road. The second division extends
from Corning to Toledo, but this division has
been ~retrganized ard is now the Toledo and
Ohio Central road.
TIE connections of the Ohio Central, at
ter q title while, will De very good. 1t Is
rrrrcsed to extend it as soon as possible to
KauGvh a Fails, 'o-,y mics beyond Charles
rcn 10 the Chesapeake and Ohio road, toll
OWL Q the left bank Of the Great kanawha.
This is beyond the navigsble portion OF the
liver al d a bridge will be built across the
rivsr or the falls. Connections might be
made at Charleston, but it would require q
special act of Congress 10 build the bridge.
This will give a good connection to the sea
board at Newport News over the Che.a-
peske and Ohio, or will allow the easy ship
ment of freights to the South and South
west over the same road.
The Ohio River road is also building to
Point Pleasant and its completion will open
up the whole Upper Ohio Valley. This will
be Of great advantage to Pittsburgh. as 1t
will open IN the interior Of West Virginia
10 i, and give this CITY the benefit of all the
West Virginia trade drained by this road.
The extension up tine Gauley river will not
be made by the Ohio Central Company but
it will be done BY another organization, as
it is q most reliable section Of country and
il must be opened up very soon.

Four Women and "A Child Thrown Into the

Yesterday afternoon about $50 quite a

1t appears hat the man who W n the boat,
which was lying Just above the mouth Of
the creek, secured a job a the .Etna mill
ard intended taking over his family j. the
boat, which is used AS a place Of habitation.
Two women, two girls and a child were in

yawl and the proprietor attached a rope to
it ard fastened the other end to a skitf,
oy which means he started to
TOW the boat up along the
shore The wind was blowing quite sti'liy
and the craft being rather top heavy, the
cortege had not proceeded far when a gust
of wind c~apsized it and the occupants were
uucertmoniously dumped out into the chilly
water. Their cries soon attracted a crowd
and SIX .fs Immediately proceeded to the
rescue and all of them were picked up with
no more damage than a severe fright and a
good ducking. However, everything in the
house was more or less damaged By the
water. The boat was landed again at It's
former mooring and the articles taken out
10 dry. 1t was indeed a narrow escape tor
the women, for had they been out in tn
river further very likely they would have
