HOMICIDE AT wELIsBURG.
George Bresock Dies from the Effects OF
Injuries Received in n Fight.

Injuries Received in Fight.
A fight took place in wellsburg on
Saturday which resulted in the death
last evening Of one of the participants,
George Bresock, and the arrest shortly
afterwards of his assailant, Hugh Nc
Manus. Bresock was apresser, and en-
ployed ut the Riverside glass works.
McMIanus worked at the Standard. No
one seems TO know the exact cause Of
the quarrel, but it is alleged that it was
about labor matters, as Bresock is a nom
Union and McManus Union man.
The fight occurred in front OF George
Davidson's blacksmith shop, on Charles
street. Bresock was badly beaten and
kicked on the head and body, and it
appears that the injury that resulted in
his death was kick on the side OF his
head. This cannot be determined, how
ever, until after the post mortem ex-
animation this morning. Bresock was
45 Yeas old, and he leaves widow and
ten children. His oldest son is EN-.
ployed at Bridgeport, Ohio. McNIanus
is 28 years OF age, and has a wife and
two children. The coroner's inquest
will be held to-day.

this city and Bridgeport about 500 went,
accompanied by Billy Mayors band, and
675 tickets were sold at Bellaire. Three
trains carried excursionists, but the
later trains were seriously delayed by a
wreck at Rochester which blockaded all
the tracks. Twenty odd sets were on
the dancing floors continuously and the

and the Standard and Etna mills, across
the river, met Saturday night in Trades
Assembly hall and decided to resist to
the last the reduction of about thirty
per cent in their wages proposed by
the manufacturers, according to their
scale. The unanimous sentiment OF
the meeting, which was attended by
nearly all the workmen in these depart
ments, was to stand firmly for present
prices, and resolutions to that effect
were adopted. There are about sixty
men employed.

POLITICAL Happenings.
The Republican County Com
mittee to be Reconyened
TO ISSUE AN AMENDED CALL
FOrthe County Convention, in Defer
ence to a General DcsIre-what
the Union Labor Scheme
Promises Hefeabouts.

Since the Republican County Execu-
tive Committee issued its call for the
County Convention, there has been some
inconvenience experienced and some
clashing OF different interests, owing to
the fact that as originally called the con-
vention was empowered to not only
nominate the candidates for county Off
GERS, but also.to choose delegates to both
the Congressional and State conven-
tons. This plan greatly complexities
things, and at the request of large
number of prominent parties Chairman
Whitehill, of the committee, has agreed
to call the committee together again for
the purpose of modifying the plan OF
the convention. 1t is proposed now to
have the county convention nominate
county officers only, and to allow the
Republican voters in primary meetings
to choose the delegates to the Congress
sional and State conventions. In this
way any conflict OF interest between
candidates for Sheriff or other county
officers and those for Congress or po-
sition on the State ticket, is prevented.
In some places it is customary in or
der to let the will OF the people prevail
to the utmost, to hold separate conven-
tons for each prominent office. That
is, one set OF delegates will nominate
the Sheriff, another the Prosecutor and
so on.
Another objection made to the present
call is that no provision is made for
choosing candidates for justices, con-
stables and other district officers.
THE "uNIoN LABOR" IDEA.
Bill Dave Goshorn, the Charleston
Union Labor party leader, who has been
in this vicinity for several days at work
on his scheme to prevent the Republi-
cans from carrying West Virginia this
year, left for home Saturday evening.
On Saturday he and other leaders held a
conference Mt Wellsbnrg. 1t is recog-
nized-indeed, scarcely denied-that
this whole Goshorn movement is in the
interest OF the Democratic party, and
designed to be. At the conference al
luded to, it was decided to nominate n
State Senator for this district and to run
a full county ticket in Ohio county, and
a candidate for the House OF Delegates
in Hancock and Brooke. 1t is proposed
to stump the district, and it is signi-
fcantly announced by those engaged in
the movement that the "means will be
provided"

recommendation regarding the ordi-
nance, was adopted by the meeting, and
the original committee continued. A
committee OF one from each ward, with
authority to increase the membership to
