A FORTUNE FOR ONE WORD.
An Immense Fee Paid Senator Eyarts
For Simply Saying 'Yes.

Two hundred and sixty thousand
dollars seems a large amount of mon>
ey to be paid as a fee to lawyer.
This is the sum, however, that w.
n. Cromwell, of No. 45 Wall street
receive as his fee for settling up the at
fairs of Decker, Howell & Co.
1t is the largest fee ever psid, so far
as can be ascertained. No lawyer
can remember any such sum ever hay
ing been paid before, though, OF
course, 1t is quite possible that as
much or more has been paid and the
fact never become public.
Fitty>thodsand>dollar fees are com,
mon. They are often paid by bi
corporations for legal advice, the cor
rectness or faultiness OF which means
a gain or loss of millions. No LAWYER
will give his advice, in an affair in
volving enormous suns Of money or
the existence Of great corpc ration,
without receiving remuneration in
proportion to the amount or interest
involved.
The personal liberty of a wealthy
man is often worth $4,000 to him.
and frst-class criminal lawyer. who
succeeds in securing to a wealthy
client his personal liberty or his ac.
quital ON a grave charge, expects
remuneration in proportion to the
wealth of his client. He gets it, too.
There are several inst noes OF
S250,OOO having been paid to lawyers
as a single fee. The most startling
case was that in which ex-senator w
ii. iEvarts, of Evarts, Chca'e 81 Bate
man, received a quarter of million
do lars for an opinion on ticklish le-
gal point. A great corporation sought
his advice. The lawyer stated the
case and added that the opinion o
Senator Evarts would be final with
them, and that tn ~ would adopt thei
future course according to his advice.
He then put question to which the
ex-senator answered simrly:

here to interview the Wheeling people
on the subject of q second lot sale,
which takes place next month. Above
all other improvement companies, the
Charlestown Company has proved
the most substantial. They are
going right forward locating
manufacturing companies, and
increasing the output OF those already
established. New houses are going up
right and left, and good signs OF a
steady and substantial growth appear
on every hand. A prominent Wheeling
stockholder said of this company, yes
terday, that it was the only improve
ment company that had lived up to its
promises and done more. He thought
none OF the boon towns could say as
much. However, It was not q boom
town; IL was merely progressive step
on the part Of Chariestswn.

ON WE CO..
TEE WHEELING BANKS WILL ESTABLISH
CLEARING HOUSE.
Twelve Financial Institutions Will Be lncludsd-I
Temporary Organization Affected Yesterday.
1t Comes After Years Of Rfor..

After years Of unavailing effort,
Wheeling is to have clearing house.
Representatives authorized to act,
representing all the city banks, twelve
in number, have agreed TO the proposi-
ton, and 1t is expected that the idea
will be put into practical shape on the
first of January.
This agreement marks another step
in the unimpeded progress the city is
making. Heretofore, it has only been
possible to make guess at the busi-
ness of the community, as represented
by the transactions Of the banks, but
from and after the first Of the coming
January, the actual figures will become
available, and we can let the world
know just what a thriving and busy
place Wheeling is.
In addition to all of that, the banks
will be greatly benefited, in common
with the entire business community,
and much good will be accomplished all
around.
For years an effort TO have a clearing
house established has been doomed 10
failure. One OF the first efforts of the
Chamber of Commerce was turned in
that direction, committee being APP
pointed at one time TO see the banks
and ascertain what could be done. The
committee got very little encourage
ment, however, and so reported, and
that was the end Of the matter. or
late, however, the increase in the num-
Der OF banks and in the volume Of bus
mess brought the advantages OF the
clearing house system to the front
again, and as a result of little effort
recently all the banks agreed TO go
into the project.
Yesterday afternoon the bankers as
sembled in the rooms Of the Chamber OF
Commerce, and effected temporary or
ganization by electing Gibson Lamb, Of
the Bank of Wheeling, Chairman, and
P. b. Dobbins, of the Dollar Savings
Bank, Secretary. The banks repre-
sented were the Exchange, National
Bank of West Virginia, Bank OF the
Ohio Valley, Peoples Bank OF Wheel
ing, German, City Bank, Mutual Bank,
Wheeling Title and Trust Company,
South Side Bank, Commercial and Dol
lar Savings Bank.
There was general and full discus
sion Of the matter, about all OF the re-
marks being OF very favorable nature,
and as result, a committee, consisting
OF the Chairman and Secretary and Mr..
Alex. Mitchell, Of the Mutual Bank,
was formed, with instructions to pro-
cure regulations and rules OF similar
organizations elsewhere, and TO draft
such bylaws, etc, as were
deemed best. This committee will
report to the full body, which Is to be
convened again at the call Of the Chair.
