P6RKRRsBURG, W. VA, March 2.-An
attempt was made to wreck Baltimore
& Ohio. fast train this morning just
outside the city by colored man who
had made frequent unavailing attempts
to board the train and ride to town.
Thomas limerick, who happened to be
coming in from the country, noticed
cross-tie on the track and not far beyond
he observed eolored man whiting.
limerick enquired what he was doing.
He replied that he was waiting for the
fast train. limerick informed him he
could not board the train at the speed it
would pass. He remarked there were
more ways than one to get on; that he
had been frequently dumped, and would
see il they would not stop. Fortunately
the train was twenty minutes late, other
wise there would have been big wreck
and serious loss Of life, Us the train was
loaded heavily with passengers, includ-
ing detachment Of UnitedSt soldiers
en- route west. limerick removed the
obstruction Immediately, and notified
the Baltimore & Ohio authorities. Capt.
NIehen was sent out, and he found and
arrested the man limerick had seen. He
proved to be q man named Reeves, who
came here from Virginia not long ago.
He was brought to the city and jailed.

PHILIP SOLUBLE DEAD.
An Old and Well Known Citizen Passes
AWny at n RIpe Ago.

An Old and Well Known Citizen Passes
Away ut Ripe Age.
Mr.. Philip schuhle, a well known
stone mason and contractor, and one Of
the older residents Of Wheeling, died
yesterday at 3:45 p. m. after an illness OF
some time with fever. He was 67 years
old, native of Germany, but had lived
in Wheeling since 1913. In 1S49 he
formed a co-partnership with Christian
Lott which lasted till his death. This
firm was the leading firm in contracting
for stone work in most OF that time, and
among the work they did was the cree
ton OF the United States Custom House
here, while there is scarcely building
OF much consequence, public or private,
on which they did not have contract.
Mr.. Schuhle was Vice President OF the
German Bank, and member OF the
firm Of Schuhle, Kehrer & Co., grape
growers and wine makers, at Martins
Ferry. He was member of Ohio Lodge
No. /, Of Masons, and in every relation
OF life was prominent and highly re-
spected. His wife survives him, and Of
their twelve children nine are alive. OF
these seven are boys and two girls, the
youngest being ten years old. One son
is in business in Detroit, another in
Philadelphia, another a member of the
firm OF Schuhle & Lott, at Martins
Ferry, and the others live here.
The funeral will take place Thursday
at 2 p. M, the services being under the
auspices Of the Masonic lodge OF which
he was a member, and the remains being
inferred at Greenwood cemetery.

That AMOUNTS TO NOTHING,
And Yetsets the Politicians on Edge,
Congressman Hosg ON tho War
path..-After the Scalp of an
Encmy--wnshlngton News

Special Dipdteli to he IRteuigenocr.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 27.-The
New York TriGunes article suggesting a
method by which the Republican sena-
tors may prevent the seating Of Demo-
crat tosucCeed Chief Justice Waite has
created sensation among politicians
here and was generally talked about to-
day. Some think that the startling pos
sibility suggested by the article will
hasten the President to make the choice
OF new Chief Justice. Heretofore he
has been very deliberate in making inl-
portant appointments. It's clear, what
ever there may be in the story, that the
Republicans have power to refuse to
confirm Democratic appointee until
the result OF the Presidential election is
known, and in the event Of a Republic
can victory then to consider the further
step OF deferring confirmation until the
new President comes in and another up
pointment is made. Efforts were made
to-day to get number Of Republican
Senators to talk, but, seeming to be
amused, they uniformly declined. The
publication has afforded Democratic
gentlemen of violent tendencies an OPP
portunity to say some very handsome
things OF Republican tactics in great
emergencies. Conservative Democrats
are quoted tonight us attaching but lit
tie importance ia. the matter, discussing
it only rs political novelty.

THE WESTERN STORMS.

Bloclsndes, Snow storms, Billiards. and
Freshets Frightening the People.
DULUTH, MINI, March 27.-Northern
Wisconsin and Minnesota are experience
ing another severe storm. One foot
and half OF snow has fallen and is
drifting badly. The st. Paul & Duluth
is the only road that has managed to get
trains through on time, all the others
being from five to thirty hours late.
Sundays western express on the
Northern Pacific left here last night
thirty-one hours behind time. The
storm commenced at 3 o'clock Sunday
afternoon, and has been raging ever
since. Street cars ran with extreme DIFF
ticulty and outside work was generally
suspended.
4 dispatch from Sioux City, Iowa,
says: The people OF jackson, Nebraska,
are leaving their farms on low lands and
seeking shelter on the hills, fearing that
when the great gorge at Cottonwood
Hill breaks everything will be swept
away. The lower sections, opposite the
mouth OF the Big Sioux, are now over
flowed and some stock has been lost.
Anxiety is growing greater every day,
as the gorges are becoming stronger
with the cold weather, so that when the
break comes nothing can withstand the
rush OF water. The water at Sioux City
continues to fall slowly, while at Yank-
ton the banks are full, showing that the
several goges between the two cities arc
yet firm.
The little town of Reville, in Grant
county, Dakota, is completely blocked
in. Word has been received from there
that the town was absolutely without
fuel and that the people were compelled
to break up dry goods and other boxes,
and in some cases their furniture to burn
in their stoves.
1t has been showing ut Aberdeen,
Dakota, incessantly for the last thirty
six hours. There are two feet OF snow
on a level. All railway travel is sus-
pended. The storm is general in Cen
tral Dakota.
A dispatch from Burlington, Iowa,
says: The weather for week has been
such as to cause serious apprehensions
for winter grains. The severe sleet
storm OF Saturday night and Sunday was
succeeded last night by rain and hail,
which fell heavily for several hours.
The weather grew colder during the
night and everything is now freezing
hard.

CAMDRlDGE, O., March 97.-There is
but one topic of conversation heard to-
night, and that is natural gus. Two Of
the Southeastern Gas Company's big
wells which have been yelled in mystery
for over a month, but for which great
things have been claimed, were tested
to-day in the presence of seventeen Of
the eastern capitalists composing the
company, and delegations from Cam
bridge and GAINESVILLE, demonstrating
irrefutably that the company has two
wells bigger than anything dreamed Of
heretofore and has control Of a vast ter
ritory equal in producing capacity to
any Of the Pittsburgh fields. Each well
registered rock pressure Of 500 pounds.

The building was u two-story frame
