CURIOUS TALES.
Thrilling Scenes and Hairbreadth Escapes
ON tho Cable.

Thrilling Scenes and Hairbreadth Escapes
ON tho Cable.
Considerable excitement was occasioned
on Tramway cable car yesterday by
conductor who violently pitched dog into
the street, says the Denver News. All
necks we're oraned to see the manner in
which the landing was effected. They saw
a pet poodle land on his feet and set up
jaunty trot after the car.
The unceremonious exit was accomplished
at the request of the pet poodler's owner, a
portly matron, fat and forty. At one of the
stops of the car master poodle had unin-
vitedly jumped aboard. After he had spent
some time on board the spectators were as
tonished at an exclamation Of the lady:
"Here, conductor. put him off, he doesn't
know his placer The conductor obeyed
with alacrity, and doggy went out with
yelp. .,
latter explained the cause of the forcible
ejectment ut is rule Of the road" he

lady over yonder was acquainted with the
rule and when she ascertained that her net
obstinately refused to be nursed she grace
fully yielded to the inevitable and took the
initiative IN the unloading, of her pet.

at the heart to do so. That is much better
than is the 4 SO with some of the fair own
ers of pet dogs, who resist us when we un-
dertake to remove the dogs from the car
floors to the street. They bluster up and
sometimes report us at the offioe.''
About that time brisk yelp called the at
tention of the occupants to the space at the
rear of the car. The pet poodle was having
a sorry time of it. A big dog had literally
jumped upon him and was shaking him up
with vim. just then car came along in
the opposite direction and ran bodily upon
the big dog. The guard hit him and threw
him unframed into the middle of the street.
All the same, it was sweet revenge to the
owner of the poodle to see such condign
punishment visited upon the prosecutor of
his pet.
The conversation thereafter turned upon
the extent to which the cars are in the habit
of striking dogs. Two or three employees of
the Tramway company agreed that it was of
rare occurrence, although the blamed
quadrupeds,' said one, ARE as thick as
hucklebeeries in June, they rarely get un-
der our cars, and, when they do, they usual
ly come out unhurt and right side up

WnEEEING, w. Va, DecemberG, 1890.
To he Editor Of the Sunday Register.
SIR:-I see that the City Executive Com
mittee have asked that all candidates for
CITY Sergeant, Mayor, etc, appear before
that body at a meeting to be held next Fri
dav evening. 1t is supposed that this is
for the purpose of determining whether
nominations shall be made by primary cleo
ton or in convention. Now the party sue
cess will depend largely upon the selection
of candidates for offices TO be filled at the
next city election. Especially is this true
in the selection of candidates for the Mayor
alty. and the Sergeancy. The man who
GETS the nomination should received the ma
iority vote of his party. This can only be
done in convention. If the nominations
are made by a primary election, where
there are three or more candidates. the
successful one will have. in all probability,
only plurality vote. In the case OF the
candidacy for Mayor, there is butone active
candidate 1t is true that at least TWO
other gentlemen have been named for that
position, but it is not believed that elther
would contest for the nomination before
the primaries. In such case Mr.. Sea-
bright would undoubtedly secure the NOM
ination by plurality vote. The commit
tee should look at this matter in a practl-
cal light and do what is best for the inter-
est of the party as well as for the best in
terests of the city, 1t is thought by many
that Col. White should be content to emu
late the example of Judge Ferguson and
Gen. Watts of Kanawha remain on the
floor of the house during the next session
of the Legislature, as he can best attend TO
the city's interests in view of the fact that
much legislation of Importance to this com
munity will be attempted this winter 1t

FARMERS ALLIANCE.
A Warm Day in the Convention-Powder
Attacks Labor-Saving Machines.

OCALA. FLA, December 6.-The Alliance
met at $3.50 this morning. resolution
was offered by Governor-elect Buchanan,
of Tennessee, TO amend the Ocala platform
adopted yesterday so that the President of
the Rational Alliance shall not have the
power to suspend the editor of any ALI
ance newspaper organ which advocates any
policy or any measures inzviolation
of the said platform. Mr.. Buchanan
says that this gives too much au-
thority TO the President, and would
be dangerous precedent TO establish. The
amendment was discussed at length and
referred to committee which will proba-
bly, report action before the noon adjourn
ment An amendment 10 the Constitution
was offered by Mr. Buchanan which pro-
vides that il shall not be necessary for an
Alliance editor TO get the official sanction
of the President before publishing State,
County or Sub-Alliance organ. His OBJ
iections to this were practically the same
as TO the platform. The provision
above referred to vested too much
power in the National President. lmmedi-
ately after the noon adjournment, the Ma
tional Alliance delegates marched in a
body to the Alliance building.
Much dissatisfaction is expressed at the
report of the Committee on investigation
of the charges against Messrs Polk, Nc
Cuue and livingston, presented yesterday.
1t is learned this morning that President
Hall. of the Missouri Alliance,
who was member of that committee, pro
nOunced against its finding, and that his
protest was attached TO the report as read
and adopted There are rumors that Hall
and those of like views will have the mat
ter brought up again for discussion, hoping
TO have the investigation reopened, but this
is not likely 10 occur, as the time is getting
short and the committee claims 10 have
thoroughly sifted every Iumor to the bot
tom. While the election of officers yester-
day gives general satisfaction, there is
strong indication of dissatisfaction with
the result. This feeling is likely to lead to
some Alliance political complications.
Mr. Powderly addressed the Alliance
delegates at Exposition Hall this after
noon. He advocated reform in the en-
ployment of child labor, insisted that the
Government had the right to control the
railroads, and then made fiery attack
upon the employment of labor saving ma
chinery as defrauding workmen of the right
to work. He was especially bitter against
all electric devices, declaring that capital
lists in their greed had even cOrnered Gods
wrath and compelled it TO do their bidding.
John Davis, of Kansas, spoke upon finance,
and this closed the exercises of Labor

FREIGHT BLOCKADE
THE STRIKE OF THE YARDMEN At GLEN.
WOOD IS SPREADING.
The Men in the Employ Of the Baltimore and
Ohio, at Connellsville, Will Demand Increase
in Wages TO-MorrOw-Ths Car Famine
in the Coke Region.

PITTsDURG, December6.-The men in the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad yards at Glen
wood are still out. and the freight blockade
is hourly increasing. A meeting has been
called for tomorrow at Glenwood, when
the disaffected brakemen will present their
case TO the other branches of the Train
mems Organization. The yardmaster,
Dietrich, offensive to the brakemen, is still
in control. The men have chosen a most
inopportune time (for the B. Il o. railroad)
for their strike. There has been an ap-
palling car famine in the coke districts for
weeks past and 1900 con- ovens are now
shut down on account OF scarcity of cars,
while the remaining ovens are piling up
stacks. Connellsville being the very centre
of the coke regions, where branches of the
road run to and from the main line, is
greatly excited tonight. A telegram from
there says: 1.-THE yard men in the employ
of the B. & o. railraod at Connellsville
will send committee to Pittsburg Mon
day TO ask for the same wages it pays the
Pittsburg yard men, S2.l6 per day, and
- rs at night. If the demands are not con-
ceded strike will follow at once, as is
claimed by the men here. The men now
receive 81 so and $l.S5.n

A CELEBRATED CASE
Decided In the Supreme Court Involving
n Great Amount of Money.

Special Telegram TO the Sunday Register.
CHARLESTON, w. VA, December 6.-The
Supreme Court handed down to-day,
through Judge Holt, opinions in the cases
of Thomas and others VS.. Hukill, from
Monongahela county, and Schuapp and
others VS.. Hukill, from the same county.
In the first case Hukill claimed, under a
lease to him by w. p. Core, dated March
Z, 1883, that Hukill did not pay up his
rentals and was in arrears when the sec
ond lease was made. The second lease was
for 1.-TWO years and as much longer as oil
and gas is found on the premises in pay
ing quantities" Hul1ill entered in posses
sion of the premises in March, 1889, and at
cost of $4,000 bored FIVE oil wells, all
producing oil in large quantities.
The plaintiff never bored for oil
or attempted to take possession
for that purpose. They brought unlawful
detainer in January, 1899. On the 10Th
dav of June. the case was tried. The
plaintiff demurred to the evidence and the
Court decided against Hukill On writ
of error the court reversed the judgment
and entered Judgment for Hukill.
The Court held that by reason of the
second lease having expired before the trial,
the plaintiff could not recover, and that
their lease could not be extended by the
fact that Hukill had produced oil on the
premises in paying quantities.
In the other case Hukill claimed under
IA lease made to him by a. NJ. Fox in No
vember, 1885. rental at first was paid by
Hukill, but for several years no rental was
paid. and by mistake Hullill surrendered
his lease to Fox, who made second lease
of the same premises to c. A. Schaupp on
the second day of May, 1889, and in it Fox
required Schaupp to write, this lease is
taken subject to the L. NJ. Hukill lease y
Hukil recovered his lease on the third OF
May, 1890, and paid over 500 back rentals,
which was accepted by Fox. Hukill en-
tered into possession in May, 1890, and the
plaintiff brought unlawful detainerin May,
1890.
In June 1890 the case was tried and the
plaintiff demurred to the evidence, and the
Court gave judgment for the plaintiff on a
writ of error, The judgment was reversed
and Judgment rendered for the defendant,
Hukill.
The Court held the first lease was not
forfeited by the execution of the second
that the first lease being surrendered by
mistake the second was not forfeiture OF
the first.
The leases are very valuable, being
worth, it is supposed, over quarter of d
million of dollars Ex-Judge Johnson has

WHAT GENERAL MILES THINKS OF THE
SITUATION AT PRESENT.
The Sioux Band on Pass Creek in the Rosebud
Agency to be Fsared-Gsneral SchOfeld
Thinks the Only Scheme is to Make
the Indians Prisoners Of War.

WASHINGTON, December 6.-Secretary
Proctor this morning received two tele-
grams from General Miles at Chicago. In
one he quotes General Brooke as saying
that one of the main causes of discomfort
among the hostile Indians is that certain
band of Sioux, living on Pass creek, in
Rosebud Agency, have been ordered TO
move against their will.
In the other telegram, General Miles says
that he does not regard Two Strikes
threat to stab General Brooke as
signal for hostilities as import
ant. He says that in case the
disintegration continues the threatened
outbreak will be prevented for this winter
at least.
The Secretary of War to-day transmit
ted to Congress a letter from Maj. General
Schofeld. General Schotied in his letter
says: There can be no practical disarm-
ament of the Indians except by making
them prisoners of war. and holding them
under such restraint that it will be impos-
sible for them to procure arms or ammuni-
tion. This would require change in the
the policy of treating Indians
