which the Sauate and House, the Cabinet
and other notables have been invited and
are expected 10 attend. Washingtonwill be
very lively that week, as Congress will
lust have opened an important session,
DR.. Reeves is especially anxious that
West Virginia be largely represented:
Her admirable health laws haye attracted
general attention in the past and she is
generally regarded as well advanced
in the matters the Association Is formed
for the purpose Of promoting. He wants
the State Board Of Health there especially.

arranged on the programme worked

were showered on him, and did not ex-

lighting a number OF matches and was
apparently very earnestly engaged in try

which it is expected will greatly facilitate
the operation Of trains in the Wheeling,

sytem of the compsny's own is being
established. The wire connecting the

will also be placed in the Benwood freight
office, one in the freight Office at Rellsire
aud another in the Bellei[e shops. The
instruments used are Bell telephones

A REPORT DENIED.
The RittsburEh Mail Men Not Trying to End
tho Strike.


On Saturday the INTEIueESoER printed
an interview with Plttsburgher who al
legged that the nail manufacturers of that
city had held secret meeting with view
to arriving at some understanding by
which the stoppage Of their mills could
be brought to an end, the strike settled
and work resumed. The same morning
the Pittsburgh Times published an article
to the same effect. Last night the follow
ing Associated Press dispatch was re-
ceived:
PrrrssURGH, Pa, Nov. 23.-The report
Of meeting Of nail manufacturers in this
city last week TO effect compromise with
the striking nailers is emphatically de-
MED. The manufacturers say no such
meeting ever took place or was contem-
plated, as the settlement OF the question
Of wages in the nail factories is entirely in
the hands OF the Western Nail Association.
This telegram was doubtless based on an
official statement furnished the Pittsburgh
Times yesterday, copy Of which follows:
PITTSBURGH, November %.
Editor Tina.
In your issue OF the 2lst you publish an
article purporting to be an account Of q
meeting Of the nail manufacturers Of this
district. No such meeting ever took place,
or was such a meeting ever contemplated,
as the settlement Of the question Of wages
in our nail factories is entirely in the
hands Of the Western Nail Association.
The report is tissue Of talsehoods. By
giving this place in your journal you
will correct a great injustice done US.
