RIVER INTELLIGENCE,
Local Coal shippers Keeping an Eye on the
Kanawha Region.

Kanawha Region.
Coal operators are watching the movemef>s
of the Kanawna river shippers very closely
Just now. Considerable coal is loaded ready
for shipment at the Kanawha mines and. on
the next rise in that stream. it will be sent to
the lower markets. A large sized drop in
prices is expected to occur, which is a matter of
no little consequence to Monongahela river
operators. A majority of them have con-
tracted to deliver coal at Cincinnati all winter,
however, at a stipulated price, and it will not
effect them so much as it will the firms who
sell at prevailing prices.
The river has fallen below the mark that
permits coal shipping, and a rise is not looked
for until the latter part of the week. Latest
reports are very favorable for high water. At
all stations on both rivers the water was either
stationary or rising. with excellent prospects
for rain. Some coal firms assert that mines
are in full operation, and that when the water
comes they will have considerable coal in
readiness.
Packet business was very lively yesterday.
Enough freight was dumped at the wharf
to load dozen boats, bur only six were on
hand to take care of the freight.

since IL is Important TO DuSlnoSs mcu W hho"
how the laws of the different States affecting
great and controlling interests are interpreted
by the highest courts, several decisions are
chilled from number Just received.
The Supreme Court of Rhode Island, i'll
annulling a mechanics lien on a school
house, maintained that mechanics lien
laws do not, in the absence of ex-
press provisions, apply to public buildings
erected by States counties and towns, for
public uses and schoolhouses erected for the
use of public schools come within the above
exemption. Such buildings are exempt from
attachment and from sales upon execution, and
for the same reason are exempt from liens
which might result in an adverse sale.
The Supreme Court of Indiana recently held
that while the notice required by section L692
of the revised statutes of the State of an in
tention to hold a mechanics lien need not be
in writing. yet that mere personal knowledge
of the owner that a particular person
is performing labor for or furnishing ma
terial to the contractor, conveyed to him in
casual conversation with such person, does not
supply the statutory notice upon which the
person can predicate mechanics lien.
In an action for breach of building contract.
the City Court of Brooklyn held that it lis proper
in order to aid in arriving at a correct measure
of damage, for the complainant to show the
cost of removal of defective material, and of
replacing the same in accordance with the con-
tract.
According to the decision of the Supreme
Court of Alabama, a bona fde purchaser of
certificates of stock upon which power of
attorney authorizing their transfer to any per-
son is indorsed by the person in whose name
the certificates were issued, and who was the
last registered stockholder, takes them relieved
the transfer to such purchaser is not regis
tered.

For a city so prosperous as Pittsburg
building lots, except in the best localities,
are selling at very reasonable prices. or
course, if the city were fiat on its back in
business point of view. lots would be cheaper
but in that case they would be harder to
pay for. 1t has been well said that dollar
will 60 farther in England than in this
country, because it has to. If lots were
cheaper it would be for the same reason.
Cheap lots, we'll located and easily acces-
sible abound in nearly all the outer wards
and in all the districts just beyond the city
line; and the supply is kept up by the con-
slant subdivision of acreage. In some
cases they are offered as low as $3.50. Better
lots can be had for 5000, and very choice for
$500 These values are certainly not beyond
the ability of any workingman with steady
job and a regular income.
Nearly every plan of lots now on the market
is, or soon will be, accessible by street cars
which are pushing out in all directions, MIMI

was the shooting on the 18th occurred. He
quoted authorities relating TO testimony con-
corning motive. He urged also that the testi-
mony was material, tending To explain state
ments made by Ward after the shooting.
MT Coleman argued that the testimony was
not relevant He said there Was no testimony
offered by the government so far that showed
any intent on the part of Mr.. Ward to shoot az
Mr.. Adler. On the contrary the evidence
OF the governments own witnesses was 10 the
effect that Ward could not have shot
Adler where he stood without shooting through
Newmyer. The testimony that he shot al a
a fiuted pillar and that Adler could not have
been hit
But he was hit," remarked Mr.. Clagett
THE THEORY OF THE DEFENCE.
HE was hit" said Mr.. Coleman. because the
ball hit the post and ricocheted and hit Adler. -
The district attorney objected to this argu-
ment as 10 the testimony as an argument for
the jury and not for the court.
The judge said that he would not exclude
this testimony for the reasons urged by Mr..
Coleman.
In the courts judgment the testimony offered
was competent.

THE MONETARY PROBLEM.
Secretary Window Waiting for Congress to

Secretary Window docs not talk very freely
about the financial situation. although he does
good deal of thinking about it. As he left the
cabinet meeting today at about 1 o'clock he
was accosted by a STAR reporter, who asked for
news
1T is one Of the hardest tasks in all my Off
cial duties to keep my mouth shut on the mat
ter that is 30 constantly in my thoughts, es-
pecially when have many alluring temptations
to tell thrown in my way, as you gentlemen of
the press manage to throw in my way"
As a matter of fact there is but little to say
that would be new. The Secretary is waiting
for action to be taken on some of the pending
and he must wait for the atten-
uated surplus. to fatten again before
he can safely attempt to buy more bonds. this
being almost the only means of releasing
money ut his command. The recent ex-
penditure Of about aS.0OO,OOO for tours
at good rate almost exhausted the
supply of ready cash and left the department
nearly pOwerless without further authority and
means are granted by Congress.
The Secretary is disposed to do everything
that can legally be done to release money. and
as one method he ia buying silver to the limit.
THE MONEY MARKET ON A SAFE FOOTING.
The market seems to have been placed on a
safe footing again as far as the actual need of
funds are concerned and what is asked for by
the bankers is not SO much additional
bond or silver purchases or other outlets of
funds as legislation that win restore confidence
and impart greater elasticity to the currency.
The present is provided for md the
financiers are only troubled over the future.
Hence the department, not having the shaping
Of policies In hand. is at rest. The Secretary il
in % merely advisory attitude toward the Con-
gressional committee. and is ready TO carry out
the law at once upon it's passage.
