GOVERNOR WILSON PARD0NS MICHAEL
LANE, OF THIS CITY,
Who Was Convicted Of the Murder Of John
Mclaughlin, Five Years Ago, and Sent to
Noundsyills for Nine Years.

Many of the readers of the REGISTER
will. recall the peculiar killing Of John
Mclaughlin, at the corner Of Twenty-sev-
enth and Market streets, on Christmas
Eve, 1882
Mclaughlin and Michael Lane, both
employees of the Belmont Mill, and fast
friends, went ont on a bit Of q Christmas
celebration together, and got pretty full Of
liquor. They had some sort of q falling
out, the exact nature Of which did not
fully come to light, and Lane stabbed his
friend in the back, and then sought safety
in flight. Mel ,ugh'in crawled into the
yard Of Gregory Werner's residence, and
when discovered was lying in the chicken
coop, with the blood squirting in q thick
stream from his wound. He was taken
to his residence, where he died the follow
ing Friday.
lane was found at his home, on the day
of the cutting, by Captain Bennett, and
was taken into custody. He was promptly
indicted for murder, and was tried at the
April, 1883. term of the Circuit Court, be-
fore Judge Boyd. The jury consisted OF
the following gentlemen: John Costello,
Allen Newman, James Merge, Edward
Werner, James Haley, A. Stoehr, W. Dan
ner, Fred. Surgeon, George Horn, Fred.
Few, W. Beshur, and N Weaver. The
prisoner was defended by Messrs. Cracratt
and Dovener. The case came on May "a,
1888, and on the following day a verdict
of guilty of murder in the second degree
was returned.
The following special telegram gives the
facts in connection Of the application for,
and the granting of, the pardon:
Special Telegram 10 hc Register.
CHARLESTON, ". VA, September 70
Governor Wilsop, to-day pardoned Michael
Lane, of Wheeling, who was indicted for
killing John Mclaughlin, in 1882: The
case was tried in the Ohio county Circuit
Court, April term, 1888, and Lane was
convicted of murder in the second degree
and sentenced to nine years confinement
in the p~enitentiary. The application for a
pardon is supported by ten of the jury who
tried the case, the attorney who prosecuted
il. officials Of the city Of Wheeling and
Ohio county, and by many other good citi-
zens of said county. Judge Boyd states
that there was no motive for the killing;
that both Lane and the deceased were
badly intoxicated; that Lane was moi
aware of the stsbbing when he recovered
from his stupor; that he made no attempt
to escape; that the deceased was Lanes
best friend, and that he, Judge Boyd is
of the belief that Lane had nc intention or
deliberate purpose to commit a murder.
Upon this statement and recommendations
above given, the pardon was issued.

Many Veterans Pass Through n Ciiy ICE
tsrday and Last Night.
A good many Wheeling people who took
in the great G. A. R. reunion at Columbus,
returned home yesterday, and with them
came a large number of veterans from
other cities, scores of them stopping off in
Wheeling for q few hours to see the city,
or to recuperate from the strain OF living
in q town with two hundred thousand
more transient guests than there were &C
commodations for. Everybody says the
reunion was an immense affair, exceeding
in point of attendance any previous meet
ing of the old soldiers. They also agree
in saying that the capacity Of the city was
not at all adapted to affairs of such NAM
moth proportions, and that larger towns
should be chosen IN the future.
The parade was spoken OF as being a
tremendous thing, One gentleman said to
a REGISTER reporter:
81 don't know how many thousand men
they were in line; I doubt if even those
having the affair in charge have any de-
finite idea themselves. The marching line
of uniformed men seemed interminsble, /
stood on High street and watched the pro-
ceesion pass, in solid column, for six hours.
and then gave up from sheer WEAKNESS.
And ever then the line stretched away out
of sight, while thousands of men had fall
en- out Of the line, and other thousands
were scattered through the multitude of
spectators. There were eighty-five brass
bands and hundreds of drum corps in the
line.n

This SUN of IS, 900, it is thought, will
more than build the temporary bridge,
and with this idea in mind, the commit
tee, while providing all the money asked
for the work, incorporated a provision in
the amendment to the appropriation or
dinance, to the effect that any surplus
which may be left over from the construc-
ton of said bridge shall revert to the con-
tingent fund of the city, in order that it
may become available for any possible
shortage which may arise in any Of the
departments, either by reason of the cut
ting down Of the regular appropriations,
or from any other cause.
After directing the clerk to have Solicit
tor Caldwell prepare the necessary amend
ment for the appropriation ordinance, the
committee issued . call for q special meet
ing of Council, to be held on Friday night,
and then adjourned.
With this meeting on Friday evening,
as contemplated, the money will at once
become available, the B. p. w. can roll
up its sleeves and pitch in.
The suggestion that the bridge building
gaug of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad be
put to work upon this job. under direction
of the Board of Public Works, all labor
needed outside of the expert bridge build
ers to be taken from among the people of
Wheeling, is meeting with considerable
favor, and it may be adopted. 1t would
certainly result in a better bridge, in less
time, than could be obtained by any other
method now in sight.

L.

Council has had a high old time of it for
a couple of days about the gravel that was
dumped on Noble street by Contractor
Maloney. Tho committee appointed to
look after the paving of Noble street would
not accept the gravel that was being used.
Some of the property holders were pleased
with the article. The outcome Of the
matter was that Council took a hand in the
matter. Councilman Sheppard cham
pioned the side the property holders and
made a long speech which was well re-
ceived by the crowd in the Council room.
The on-lOokers became 30 boisterous as to
irritate the President of Council. Mr..
Sheppard also provoked President Reed,
and the latter called on the Marshal
to quiet the latter, but Mr.. Shep-
pard took q seat before the officers arrived.
Council in abody repaired to the scene Of
the gravel yesterday morning. After an
exchange of opinions it was decided TO
allow Mr.. Maloney to proceed with his
work, providing he used the kind OF gravel
dumped by him just before work was stop
ped.
Beginning this morning the public
schools will be opened and closed on East
ern time. The small boy will have to get
out about half an hour earlier now than
he did last term. The Board would have
done the proper act to convene the schools
at $50 under the new time. There will
be some fun for the teachers in the lower
branches.

DEAR SIR:-On receipt of your letter OF
the 7th inst. / have considered the pro-
priety Of using precautionary means for
the protection of the people of this State
from the infection Of the yellow fever,
which is wasting and d~epopulating the
city of Jacksonville, Fla. Some OF the
Southern cities have generously invited
refugees from the infected districts. The
danger lessons "a the distance increases
north. Must we close our doors, and refuse
an asylum to those of our countrymen
who flee from the pestilencer Within
twenty or thirty DAYS we may reasonably
expect frost, which, generally, stays the
progress of the disease. Let us keep our
watchful eye on any persons from the in
fected district who may seek refuge in our
midst. and if any symptoms of the disease
should be manifested, let there he strict
isolation, with the kindest care and atten-
ton. w. p. EWING.

A gentleman from Wheeling en- route for
Kansas City. Mo, had an overcoat valued
at S35 taken from the cars at the function
Thursday afternoon. He had come down
on the connection to the express, which
was late, and while his train laid at the
station, he got off on the platform. On re-
entering the cars he found that his over
coat was missing from the seat he had &C.
cupied. Upon inquiry it was ascertained
that two men had passed through the car
in his absence, and that one OF them had
picked up the garment and carried 1t oil
with such nOnchaldnce that it did not
arouse the suspicion of the passengers. A
man answering the description Of the one
who took it had been lettering around the
station ali day, and when the coat was
gone, the man also had disappeared.
