4 SCHEME

Nipped In the Bud by the Startling Dis
covery of n Brakeman.
On Sunday morning, at Mipgo, while
some cars we're being switched around, q
brakeman noticed some one in q box car.
lie approached to investigate. when q hand
suddenly protruded from the car, holding
o bcx OF fine cigars, and a voice said
Take them and keep quiet"
The brakeman took the cigars and
walked away, but informed another brake
man OF the occurrence, aud they returned
together, one on each side Of the car,
aud closing the doors suddenly they locked
them and had the inmates prisoners. The
police were then notified and when they
opened the car they found "Possum" Coss,
a man named Psden and one named
Finley, Alexander Taylor and Joe Taylor,
all OF Martins Ferry. They were all
arrested. Fifty hams aud a miscellaneous
assortment Of llquors and cigars were also
found in the car.
The men were taken before a Justice Of
the Peace yesterday for examination when
the fact was developed that Chris
Nolan's saloon had been robbed the night
before and all of the plumber secured taken
to ths box Car, which was marked for
Martini Ferry. They then went to a car
laden with hams bound for Pittsburgh,
and taking fifty therefrom, placed them in
their private car" got in themselves. and
INDUCED in a royal good time. aided by
their companions, the liquor TASKS. 1t
was their idea that the car would be run
down TO Martins Ferry and switched of,
aud they could unload their plumber TO suit
themselves. The scheme was a good one.
and would. no doubt, have been carried
out effectually had not one of them given
the snap away by attracting the brake
mans attention.
The news OF the scheme having reached
Martins Ferry the officers there suspected
Ed. Archibald and Andy Morgan of hav.
ing a hand in the matter, and they we're
arrested and sent up to Mingo to have a
hearing along with the balance OF the
gang. On some account oil the fellows
with the exception OF Coss and Joe Tay
or we're dismissed. they being held for
Court. Coss ia a notorious character, hav'
ing been in the penitentisry. and being re.

TIE petition was presented to Judge
Jacob about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon:
After reading the document, the Court said
there had been q request made BY Mr..
George B. CALDWELL that he be notified OF
the presentation of the petition, and at the
judges requesr, Mr.. Caldwell was sent for.
Upon his arrival, Mr.. CsldSell said he was
inclined 10 the opinion thst the city should
have had ten days notice before the actual
presentation of the petition, 80 that q mo-
ZION to reject or other propsr action might
be taken by the friends OF the ordinance.
After some discus ion, however, it was
agreed that the pspsr should be presented,
aud the Court set Saturday, May lst, as
the day upon which counsel would be heard
in the matter. As Council will meet In
regular session before that date, the city
will have ample time to take action TO de-
fend the legality Of the measure under
question. Following is the petition in

AN UNUSUAL ACTION.

At that hour several members OF the
Board appeared, but owing 10 the abSence
of the city members, a quorum could not
be obtained. Finally at $3.50 o'clock,
Messrs. Prince, Stem. Woods, Maxwell and
Nichols, the members present, organized
by calling Mr.. Prince to the chair, when
Mr. Stein moved hat the clerk issue sum
mones for the absent members, compelling
them to attend, and that the said sum,
moaes be placed in the hands Of the Sheriff
to be served forthwith.
Mr.. Woods said there was no authority Tor
the ofsuch an order, but the other
members thought otherwise, after section
7 of chapter 80 Of the Acts OF 1881 had
been consulted, and the motion was passed.
This section reads as follows:
Sec. I. If any Commissioner, after due
notice thereof, shall wilfully fail to attend
such special session, he shall forfeit not
less than FIVE nor more than twenty dol
lars.
Summons were then duly issued, ad'
dressed to the Sheriff Of the county, tor

SOME EXCITEMENT.

The presentation of the petition created
quite q stir among the local politicians last
evening, and the probable action of the
Court is the subject of much
speculation. TIE existence of the docu-
ment was generally Known about town,
but 3 very limited number of persons were
aware that its presentation to court was
contemplated yesterday. The points pre-
sented for the action OF court are very in
teresting, and as the matter al issue is of
vital importance to our citizens, the pro.

Mr.. Peterson made his appearance aud
spoke in favor OF good roads and bridges,
but he was opposed to making large sp,
preparations for the purpose asked this
year. He called attention 10 the fact that
streets in this city one hundred years old
had never had q cobble.stone upon them
and yet they were travelled ten times a.
much as some of the country roads. There
was undoubtedly a necessity in the country
for better roads, bat the same condition
existed in a greater way in the city, and if
the city taxpayers bad to put up with mud
it ought not to be too much to ask the
country people to do The same. The com

Ia q short time the four absentees were
found, and the Board proceeded to trans
act the pending business, it being a con-
sideratiou OF the roads aud bridges sp'
preparation.
Mr.. Peterson asked to be excused, as he
had important aud pressing private bust
ness demanding attention.
The road and bridge matter was then
taken up. The first item on the list. an
appropriation OF $500 for the Boggs' Hill,
Spriuger's. and Bushield's mill road, was
read, which Mr.. Delbagge moved to strike

Mr.. Peterson continued to speak until

yielded the floor to Mr. Boring. The gen

country members that they would zee q

The process of killing time went merrily
on until Mr.. Stein got The floor and moved
to reduce the total sun asked for ten per

ruled out of order.
Mr.. Picket spoke next, closing bis srgu.

Mr.. Peterson moved that the Finance
Committee be authorized to advertise for
bids for 5000 Of railroad bonds held BY
the equity.
Mr.. Prince amended BY instructisg the
Committee TO obtain legal authority as TO
the county's right in the matter, and if
such right existed, then that the Commit,
tee be Instructed to advertise for bids for

This proposition was debated for a time,
and then dropped BY general consent until
the roads aud bridges appropriation should
have besn definitely fixed.
The Board granted a liquor license to
James Young, Of Fulton, and then went
back to the road and bridge matter. Two

Mr. Boring then moved to scale 80 per

the floor. He said the CITY members we're
willing to vote a levy OF $4,000 for road
purposes, which he believed to be sufficient
in these hard times. He spoke at consid,
cradle length, going into the subject OF
city and county taxation in an elaborate
way.
The motion was ruled out Of order.
Mr.. Prince then took the floor and spoke
for some time in favor OF keeping up the
