ANOTHER SUIT
Brought by the Wheeling Bridge and Ter
minaI Co To Condemn Property.


minal Co. to Condemn Property.
In the Circuit Court, yesterday, the
Wheeling Bridge and Terminal Railroad
Company filed petition for the condem-
nation OF the property of the Norway Tack
Company, of this city, the property being
lots Nos. II. 10, Ii and l9in Updegrafl's ad-
diton. and bounded by Chapline, Market
and Eighteenth streets. In this petition
the company recites in the usual way the
necessity of the ground for the purposes OF
the company, and goes on to say the corpo-
ration has the authority to construct a
railroad from a point at or near the west
corporation line of the city to point ON
the line between the States of West Nir-
ginia and Pennsylvania, near where SAID
line is crossed by the middle fork OF wheel
ing creek
The matter is set for argument May 3lst.
The Railway Company has been nego-
tiating for this property for sometime, but
the figures at which the Tack Company
held il. $55, 900, were thought too high.
In tine case of Phillips, administrator, V.
the Street Railroad Company there was
verdict for the defense.
In the case Of Il. Fitzsimmons V. hetter
and Brinkman, the jury returned verdict
of one cent damages.

An Alleged Swindle.

BIZ. Fletcher Il &c, manufacturers of the
champion slab and wire fence, - are alleged
by the Steubenville papers to have done
up a large number of people up the river,
in West Virginia and Ohio The discovery
was precipitated by one of the firm hiring
horse. having il charged TO Fletcher " Co,
and then each in turn denying he was
Fletcher. The livery man had them all ar
rested On their persons were found con
tracts with different parties in Pennsylva-
mia. West Virginia and Ohio. The agree
ment which is entered into by township
agents is to the hasty observer very
innocently worded document, but study
of its provisions shows it to be one OF the
slickest articles ever entered into between
parties The agreement constitutes the
local party entering into il township
agent. and on the first | 900 rods sold he is TO
receive $50 commission. He also executes
his note TO B. l.. Fletcher Il Co. for Sl25,
one-half the commission, which is IN lieu OF
them granting him the privileges OF selling
the same. If he has not sold the 900 rods
in six months and not paid the sl25 TO b.
L. Fletcher Il Co.. then 3. l.. Fletcher "
Co have option of annulling the con-
tract, surrendering the note of Sl25 after
being paid the One-half of the commission
on the fencing sold. The note is not TO be
transferred but all notes taken by these
willy agents are negotiable and as soon as
given are discounted at the nearest bank.
Several parties have bitten at the chance
to make money rapidly. S. A. White and
j. Henderson White, of Brooke county, W.
Va. and Adam Beltz, of Island Creek, who
made an affidavit and had the crowd ar
rested. He charges B. l.. Fletcher X
Co. with unawfully and fraudulently
obtaining afiidavits and signatures TO
certain promissory note TO the value OF
$l25.

Mrs. Nolnn,s Statement.

Mrs. Bridget Nolan, of Bridgeport,
called at the REGISTER Office yesterday and
stated that the Bridgeport correspondent
was in error in his account of the trouble
with VIM. Mullen at her house Sunday
night. She says that Mullen was intoXi-
Gated at the time and he became jealous OF
her because she adjusted another young
mans necktie. He struck her blow In
the mouth and loosened several teeth, he
also threw tea kettle full of hot water at
her, but it didn't hurt her. She put him out
of the door and struck him in the mouth
with her hand. He caught her clothes
and pulled her out on the porch, when he
fell and struck his nose on a sharp piece OF
an old coal bucket, which cut his nose.
she did not cut him with a knife, she
saws. nor did she have knifein her hand.
She says Mullin has threatened numerous
times to kill her if she talked with other
men. and what he did was only carrying
out his threat. She wants il understood
that she was not at all in the fault.

It Takes Him Several Weeks to Find
Out That He Lost $500.
EAsroN, PA, Oct. 27.-John Rsigel, a
farmer residing near Stockerton. was in
Easton to-day, and reported at police head
quarters that during the Nazareth fair he
had been victimized out of $500.
He said that he had met a man at the fair
who claimed to be a drover, and that he
was invited into shed where, by tea
prize package scheme. he won 81 200, but
the money was not given him because
ne could not show that he
had like sum in case
he should have lost Accordingly, he said
he aud the drover came to Easton, where
he drew $500 out of the bank and returned
to the fair, where he again became in
terested in the drawing scneme, and with
the $500 he was led to believe he had won
81 100, which amount he was told he would
receive as prize on the 10th inst. Reigel
failed, OF course, to receive the amount,
and on Saturday last he told his son for the
first time.
The reason he did not make known the
fact before was because he expected to re-
ceive the 81, 200 prize. Riegel is about 65
years of age.

The Ficklenees of One Maiden's Mind
Very Plainly shown
From the ST. Louis Republic


SIOUX CITY, IA, Oct. 25.-The fckleness
of a maiden's mind was well illustrated here
Yesterday, when Fred Rees and Minnie Cul.
ley were married. They had long been
lovers, and the young man, who is an ex-
press messenger on the Sioux City and
Northern road, has been saving his wages
lot over a year to furnish home for his
bride.
All is well that ends well, but for the past
two months affairs looked blue for Rees.
About that length Of time ago one Walter
Ross, train dispatcher on the Northern
Pacific. who lives at Minneapolis, met Miss
Culley. whose nome is at Fort Dodge, and
at once laid siege to her heart. HIS suit
was favored by her father. and a week ago
she agreed to throw her old lover over and
marry Ross. This suited the father, and he
fitted up house for the young couple at
Fort Dodge, where Ross was to get employ
ment soon. Monday Miss Galley came to
Sioux City, and, of course, met her old
flame, Rees, whom she told of
the turn affairs had taken. He
was downcast, but not disheartened, and
by Tuesday evening the girl had changed
her mind and started for Fort Dodge to
pack up and run away with Rees. But
while she was getting ready her father
dropped on to Der plan and prevented ner
taking the early train for this city.
Then the father tried to persuade her to
adhere to her determination to marry Ross,
but she declared that she loved Rees best,
and the outcome of the affair was that the

procuring Of the license and helped the
young couple to get settled in the home

The abundant rains in this section for the
past month have greatly damaged and cut
off the cotton crop. This fact, in addition
to the scarcity of cotton pickers. has re-
tardsd great many farmers in marketing
their crop, and in consequence much cotton
still remains ungathered in the felds. The

$250, 900 in this county.
