STATED against him Is 0 non.union man,

and there ere number Of them In Wells

up against Burkett that the Mayor of
Wellsburg, unknown 10 anybody, swore

There was regular mob present. The

Bnrkett. The cryof foul was raised and
at the request Of Burkett's hacker the heat
was given to the Wellsbufger. The second
heat Burkett won easily. In starting on
the third he slipped and lost the lead, but
soon oyerhauled Wellsburg and
was passing him when Wellsburg
jockeyed and iouled again. Again the
cry was raised by the crowd and their
man stopped, but Bnrkett kept on. In

TO follow. In the meantime the
Judges gaze the race to Burkett, despite
the protests Of the manager Of the rink,
and Burkett's hacker, under police pro-
lection, settled up the financial part. The
boys then went down to their boats.
There was large crowd at the levee, and
had 1t not been for the police guarding
the skitfs would have scuttled them. The
Wheeling boys have had enough Of Wells

Hon. Cd. Hubbard on the Charge of sec.
tartan Iptiuenees In the Board.
To ne Editor eftae Ia.eiltgsaeer.
/ s1R:-With your permission l desire to
correct the statement Of Mr.. Robert
Crangle as reportedin this mornings IN.
rELLlosScER. Idid not say that "The
Methodist church. had never had any
representation in the control Of the In
sttute;n but / did say that the impress
sion was abroad in the community, that
the Methodist church had not had fair
share in the management Of the Institute;
that under the present circumstances the
question would not be considered simply
with reference TO Prof. Haines and Mr.
Orr; that Prof. Haines was Methodist
and Mr.. Orr a Presbyterian; that Prof.
Haines had given substantial proof OF his
fitness for the position, and his appoint
ment was asked for by ine.tenths OF the
patrons Of the school; that Mr.. Orr had
not been teaching for several years and
could not be reasonably expected to be
fully acquainted with the present methods
Of instruction that Mr.. Orr was elseted by
votes OF members Of the Presbyterian
churches with one exception, and that
the community would necessarily draw It's
own inferences. Ibid not express myself
as sorry for making the remark quoted
above, but sorry that was under the
necessity OF makingit, and gave as my
reason, that the feeling was abroad in the
community, andI thought the Trustees
ought to knowit.
The above was all said after the vote
was taken and before the result was de-.
elared. ] did express my sorrow, and
here repeat II, that anything l might have
said should induce DR.. Mcclure to offer
his resignation as President Of the Board
of Trustees, and that, for one, Icould not
vote to acceptit; and he will permit me TO
say here, that having contributed to the
election Of Mr.. Orr, think he Is bound in
good faith and courtesy TO stand by him,
as I expect to, and make his administra-
zion success, II possible.
RI One thing more, Mr.. Editor: do not
think Mr.. Crangle's reference 10 the Fee
male College In taste, for II the manpge-
ment there should be wrong it would not
make the management Of the Institute
right. One is owned by private stock
holders, and is managed and controlled in
accordance with their votes and wishes;
the other is based on a public fund, Is
public trust. and the public should be
lairly represented in It's management /
may say in regard to the College, however,
that the Presbyterian Church has never
been without representatives. inits faculty
OF instruction, and while Seminary one
of It's principals was member Of the
United Presbyterian Church.
In conclusion, let me say, no one regrets
this whole matter more than do, and Its
publicity was not sought nor desired by
me; but shall not regard II az an nm
mixed evil II our citsens are led 10 take a
greater interest In an Institution that be.
longa to them and 10 their children; and
il those having sens 70 educate will not
send them abroad, but use their influence
in making the home schools worthy ci
their patronage and q blessing to our city.
Very respectfully,

this statement he adhered.
1ncfoss questioning some difficulty was
experienced on account OF the Witness
being hard Of hearing and answering
slowly. He said he first told the Sheriff
that be- could recognize the men in his
house, one day this week, at the Sheritf's

KEPT HIS own COUNCIL.
The witness said he knew Il that night,
but "he didn't want 70 say anything about
It" He was catechised for long time,
but insisted that he had known al along,
but never let on
"There was always somebody talking
about It, but / didn't want 70 let on
"Why didn't you want TO let on
81 wanted TO find out more about it,
ibid you End outany more about IT."
~ found out a little more.p
@What did you find out that led You TO
tell on Monday what you had never told
before?"
81 found out they was arrested"
Witness first heard Of the arrest Sunday,
when Keller, the tenant Of his who found
him the morning after the robbery, told
him.
The facts connected with the discovery
by Keller Of Markings condition that
morning were gone over by Captain
Doyener, In an attempt to shake the wit:
ness confidence in his Identification Of
the prisoners. Keller and another tenant,
named Wharton, released him.
It was further brought out that the first
warning Marling had OF the approach Of
the robbers was the firing OF q revolyer
| on the porch. John Culver came 10 first,
Tom Met owan second and then William
MCGOWAN. Aiourth man came in with o
revolver in his hand. He could not recog-
nizs this man.
Culver caught him and forced him back
ward on the bed, and Tom MCGOWAN
struck him wi h the pick.handle. He
could see their faces as he lay back on the
bed and they stood up. All wore black
masks. The witness described in hest
tating way the dress Of the three men.
His evidence in this respect, as in most
others, was unsatisfactory. Mr.. Marling
seemed not TO be very sure OF anything he
asserted. His testimony would have little
weight before d jury, probably, on account
othis puzzled, uncertain manner.
It was developed that old Culver had
visited Marlipg when he was lying in bed
from the result OF his wounds, and wanted
TO move in with him. Cuiyers boy also
sat up with him one night both being in
company with members Of the Wharton
family, at the time Of these vista.
