Knocked Down and Robbed.

\ HOEFFER ATTACKED BY HIGH
wAYMEN.
An exceedingly bold unsuccessful high
way robbery was committed "Wednesday
evening on the road between Bellaire and
West Wheeling, although the robbers did
not yet rs much money as they evidently
expected they would. The circumstances
are rs follows:
Henry Hoeffrr, the ~wcll-known janitor
of Turner Hall building, went to Bellaire,
Wednesday, ON business, and started home
about / o'clock in the afternoon. When
he had reached a point about IN equal dis
taurr between Bellaireand West Wheeling,
he heard footsteps behind him, approach
ing very near. He turned suddenly and
saw two men. then a billy struck him im-
mediately in the centre of his forehead and
he fell to the ground unconscious.
Several hours later he returned to con-
s~ciousnrSs and found two members of the
Grand Army of the Republic standing over
him, they having just come across his body
Iyinr on the roadside. They assisted him
him to a house not far away where his
Wounds were washed. and he was made rs
comfortable rs possible. ~IIoc!lrr has no
idea who the parties are that struck him,
hut said from the instantaneous glance he
caught of them they were rough, burly
individuals, hut hc was struck before he
had time to gain any distinct idea of their
c~ounteuanceS. He also received an ugly
wound on the left side OF his face, but he
thinks that was caused from the fall.
He had no valuableS on his person ut the
time. whit the exception 0fSiN dollars and
forty old cents. The robbers had relieved
his pockct-book OF the six dollars, but the
change being in another pocket they failed
to discover il. After he had been taken to
the house and fixed up, with the kind as
sistance of the two G.. \. u. members,
whose names could not be ascrrtained, he
came OH home accompanied by the gentle
men. 1t is supposed by ~iloeIlrr that the
men who knocked him down, suspected that
ne had zone to Brllairc after Il sum OF
money. and that they followed him from
that place.

4 NEW LINE INTO THP CITY.

Superintendent LImbing, of tine Natur-
al Gas Company OF West Virginia, has com
pleted the survey for 4 new gas line into
the city. As originally laid down, the com
pany contemplated entering the city by
way of Caldwell'S run and Twenty-ninth
street, on the South and the National road
and Johnathan's Rayine, on the North,
the two legs OF the Y uniting at Elm
Grove. The new point of entering is via
the Peninsula, and the chief pur-
pose is TO supply the Central Glass
Works. This pipe line leaves
the National road at 4 point at the east
end of Fulton, crosses the creek on or near
the eastern bridge, thence follows the
county road TO a point near the east end of
the western bridge, where it turns sharply
to the south and follows the creek bank
for several hundred yards. Passing under
the east arch of the 3. Il U. railroad bridge
at the tunnel, the line cuts diagonally
across the creek to the west bank, which it
follows to the east end of Sixteenth street,
where it connects with the East Wheeling
system.

4 COM


Yesterday, 4 quorum OF the Board OF
County Commissioners, consisting of PrcSi-
dent Woods and MrSsrs. BORING Picket,
Delbruggc, Stein and Peterson, met ut the
Court House in special session to consider
something in the way of 4 compromise
which could he rendered the Natural Gas
Company of West Virginia in regard tothr
route through the Poor House farm. Here
tosore the Board has demanded free gas tOr
the Poor House, or Court House and
Jail, in return for the privilege
sought by the gas company, claiming
that, in view Of the RICH; Of way along
county roads, already given the company,
this demand was not in any way excessive,
but WAS, Oh the contrary, modeSty itself.
This demand the company has rejected rs
being more than it could stand, and giving
up all idea of going through the grounds
ofthe poor farm, the company applied to
Court for the appointment OF commissions
ers TO condemn a right Of way
through the lawn of Major AlonZO LOr-
ing, the return of said commissioners
being summarized in yesterdays REGIS
TER. 1t is presumed this purpose OF the
company to 20 around the poor farm alto
gcther induced the members of the Board
to meet Yesterday, it being the idea that a
compromise would induce the company to
turn back, and fOrGSo the payment OF
81. 100 to Major LOrlng.
After some general discussion, the Board
agreed to 81 far modify the old demand
rs to ask for free gas for the County In
Urinary for five years, and that after the eN-
p%iration of that time the county should only
be charged one-half the regular market
rates for what gas was necessary 10 warm
the Poor House buildings.
The decision of the Board was made
known to the attorneys of the company in
the afternoon, but the compromise has not
yet been accepted, and it is doubtful if it
will be.
