MISSING MONEY.

On Sunday at 2 o'clock in the after
noon, Campbell Rankin, who drives tn,
High Hill dairy wagon of Mr.. John Por
terfield, north of town, crossed the bacl
river bridge at Bridgeport; he had in hi!
possession considerable money, resulting
from his collections $40 of which being
in silver, which being heavy and bulky
he tied in handkerchief, and wrapping
it in newspaper, placed in the wooden
horse bucket, under the drivers seat. Al
the west end of the bridge, Mr.. Rankin
was hailed by Ross Fitch, of this place
who asked to ride with him to st. Clairs-
vile; his request was granted, and he
climbed into the wagon. A few min
utes later Gabe Newly, well known
cOlored barber, who has a shop at
Bridgeport, but lives near Pasco, at the
foot of Big Hill,was permitted to get into
the wagon at the corner of Pike and
Bank streets, to ride home, and all three
of the men occupied the drivers seat. a
mile west of Bridgeport, at Johny Pat
tersOn's, Rankin got out to water his an
imals, and taking the package from the
bucket gave it to Newly to hold
He remarked that it was very heavy, and
asked if it was lead, and was told that it
wasS49 in silver. The package was replac-
ed in the bucket and the party proceeded.
Shortly before reaching PascO, Mr. Ran
Ii haf hn ha
age was still in the bucket and all right
On reaching the west end of the stone
bridge across Wheeling Creek at foot of
the hill, Newly having reached his desti
nation, got out of the wagon and started
down the road to the right toward his
home. Fitch, saying that he would walk
up the hill, alighted from the wagon, and
Rankin drove on, thinking that his pass
enger was close behind, but proceeding
some distance, he missed him, and about
the same time, upon looking in the buck
ct, missed the money.
Driving on short distance he met
son of Thomas Williams whom he asked
to hold his horses, when he returned to
where the men alighted Fitch was
found at the bridge and told of the loss
of the money, but he denied any knOwl-
edge of it, and became very indignant
Mr.. Rankin insisted that he should go
with him to st. Clairsville, which he
finally consented to do. Arriving here,
while an officer was being looked up.
Fitch disappeared, and has not since been
seen in this vicinity.
Although warrant was issued for
Newby, Mr.. Rankin expresses the Opin-
ion that he had nothing to do with tax
ing the money, and in fact there is no
direct evidence duplicating either of the
men. The circumstances detailed were
related to us by Mr.. Rankin.

THE Wheeling street car strike which
has been on for about ten days, was set
tied amicably on Monday, and the men
returned to work. Some scenes of dis
order were experienced during the time
the strike was on when attempts were
made to run cars by nOn-union men.
Windows were broken, the men assaulted,
and the cars badly damaged by obstruct-
ions placed on the track and missiles
thrown. 1t was claimed that these acts
were performed by sympathizers and not
by strikers. The police made no effort
to prevent the demonstrations of hostility
to the management of the road, and for
this they are censured.

THE B., L. and c. Railroad has made a
preliminary survey for line from Zanes-
vile to Columbus, near the line of the
National pike. 1t is said an excellent
route has been found, which consists of
very low grades, and at the same time is
short. The plan is to shorten the old
road in several places by taking short
cuts, ard by so doing line from Bellaire
to Columbus only five miles longer than
the b. and o. can be built, which will
have the advantage of low grades. The
Vanderbilts are reported to have hand
in the scheme.

L. W. MATTHEWS, clerk in Hoge's drug
store, was arrested on Friday on an affi
dayit sworn out by Frank Boston, charg
ing him with selling liquor within two
miles of county fair, which is an Offense
prohibited by law. Matthews had a
hearing before Squire Linn on Saturday
afternoon, and was bound over to Pro-
bate Court under bond of $50. 1t ap-
peared at the trial that several months
ago Boston had procured a prescription
from one of the physicians of this place,
which was marked refill" and that this
had been called into requisition as many
times a day as BOstOn's unallayed thirst
demanded. Boston asked for liquor on
Wednesday evening and, being drunk,
was refused. In spirit of revenge he
caused the arrest as above stated. The
Court held that the prescription was used
merely to evade the law, as such was in
valid, the prescription having been
brought forward to justify the selling.
The act of selling was not denied.
