d. II. Staley, Agent Of the Union News COM
pany, Charged with Embodiment.
D. II. Staley, who has had charge in
this city OF the agency of the Union
News Company OF New York, but u few
weeks, was Saturday night discovered by
Travelling Agent r. R. Burke, of Pitts
burgh, Pa, to be n defaulter, in cash and
goods, TO over $500. The regulations Of
the company are such that every agent
is required weekly to settle with the
New York office. Staley failed for some
two weeks or more to remit his cash, or
a statement OF stock on hands. This
omission led to the discovery Saturday
night by District Agent Burke, OF Pitts
burgh, that he had embezzeled the COM
pany's cash to something like $500 and
about 500 Of stock. Staley confessed TO
Mr.. Burke his shortage, and begged for
time to make restitution. He went out
among his friends, or had the money
somewhere concealed, and paid Mr..
Burke sos, leaving balance in cash I'M
paid OF Sl43, and 500 Diminishing stock un-
accounted for. Staley, it is said, had led
Il fast life with fast women in this city.
At II o'clock Saturday night Mr.. Burke
called ut Justice William II. Davis
house, and asked the Justice for war
rant OF arrest for young Staley.
The Justice went up to his office and
issued the warrant, and sometime after
midnight Officer Shorts arrested Staley
and placed him in Jail by order OF the
Justice.
Yesterday morning the Justice COM
mitted him for examination at Up. m.,
June 0, 1888, in default of $1,000 bail.
1t is said that Staley claims to hail from
Moundsville, this State. He once lived
there. A young man by the name OF ].
G. Schafer succeeds StGley as agent at
Wheeling. Many complaints have been
made against StaIey by the train boys to
the police because OF Staley's swindling.
If one Of them sold bananas amounting
to twenty-five cents he would raise the
amount to thirty-tive cents, and if they
sold book ut thirty cents he would
raise it to forty cents. Staley kept all
OF these raised ten cents Off OF the train
boys. He once took n watch from one
Of them, but Officer Junkins got it back.

WHEELING Wins A GAME.

Ball Notes of General
Interest.

Yesterday at Columbus, the fatal spell
which has been hanging over the Wheel
ing ball team was lifted, ae'least tempo
rarily, and after being banged around
for eight consecutive defeats, to say
nothing of those two defeats at Jackson
and losses at other places, it won game.
The Senators were defeated by a score Of
5 to 8. Every local enthusiast who
learned Of the result last night, breathed
a sigh OF relief and thanked the fates
that Wheeling had at last found club
that 1t could beat. Morrison ap-
pears from the report given below
to have been in good form, and
pitched good game. The Wheeling
boys do not seem to have batted to any
alarming extent, but what they did do,
assisted by an error or two, was sufficient
TO win the game, and it is games that
count in race for n pennant. 1t is
hoped that the tide OF luck has begun to
set the other way, and that Wheeling's
victories will grow to be as monotonous
as were her defeats. The team will not
play again till Wednesday, when they
open in Mansfield. They will play three
games there and three at Canton, which
will close its first series away from home.
Reaching here on the 18th inst, they
will have until the 10th TO recuperate,
and then the Senators from Columbus
will open series OF q games to be play

One week ago to-day Wheeling was in
the lead with a per cent OF $50. To-
day she in fifth place with per cent OF
only SIG. Lima is now in the lead with
a per cent of 1866. Columbus, Zanes-
vile and Kalamazoo come next. Kala-
mazoo's per cent is $40. A week has
made many changes and succeeding
weeks will make many more. Wheel
ing's friends expect to see her advance
again,
