HE MAY DIE.
ONE BELLAIRE MAN WHAOKS ANOTHER OVER
THE HEAD.
The Victim is an Italian and Made Love to His
Assailant's Sissr-A Cutting ARRAY in the
Second Ward, Last Mght-Ihe Barton Case.

Frank Rose, an Italian, Is laid up at
his boarding house in Bellaire with a
head badly cut and bruised, the result
of his indiscretion in maxim love to an
American lady. His death is expecte d
as a result of the wound. Rose became
enamored Of Miss Rose Croghan, who
clerks in John Burke's grocery, in Bel
lalre. His attentions were decidedly
distasteful to Miss Croghan, and she re-
PEELED his advances, but still he linger-
ed near and would not be driven away.
The people about the store lso tried to
assist the young lady in getting the
Italian to keep away, but it was no use.
Finally Miss Croghan went TO live with
her brother Jack. This enraged Rose,
and yesterday he annoyed Jack while
he was at work. Jack put up with this
for little while and then struck Rose
on the head with a mallet. He fell on
some projections on the street and cut
two deep gashes on his face. He was
taken to his boarding house and DR..
Wells was called and stitched up the
wounds. The doctor did not think he
was seriously hurt, but during the
afternoon he took worse and last even
ing he was reported to be in critical
condition. Rose figured in shooting
scrape several weeks ago, but not as an
offender.

OFF FOR THIS YEAR.
The street Car Line WIN Not Be Run to
the Fair Grouu DIS.

The Street Car Line VIII NOT DC nun ~
the Fair Grounds.
It has virtually been decided by the
MANAGEMENT of the street railways that
the new double track line down South
Penn street to the State Fair grou nds
will not be built this season.
This decision was reached because OF
the opposition of the residents OF that
portion of the street lying near the
Fair grounds, they objecting for the
reason that two rail- way tracks would
take up about all the street, which Is
narrow there anyhow by reason OF hav-
ing been filed up seven or eight feet,
and that during the construction OF the
line the street would be virtually closed
to travel, as we'll as during the opera
ton Of the cars during Fair week.
The railway management will now
await until next summer, when 1t Is
thought arrangements can be made to
run line down South Broadway and up
South Penn street, making a loop which
can be operated not only during Fair
week, but all the time, which will afford
better satisfaction to the people OF the
Seventh ward, and bring in a larger
revenue to the Company.
The ground has been gone over by
those interested, and this is about the
way the thing stands at present. 10
have gone on with the work at this
time, although the ties were purchased
and the iron ordered, meant that the
work could not have been finished In
time, with strong probability Of an in
junction once it was commenced. This
would have tied things up badly, and
seriously disconnected people wanting
to reach the State Fair by way OF Penn
street,

OUR BUILDING BOOM.
NEARLY SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND DOL
LARS IN IMPROVEMENTS
Going Up in Wheeling and Out the Pike This Year
The Record Very Good One, Following, as It
Does, a Million Dollar Year.

When the announcement was made in
the REGISTER, last autumn, that the
immense sum Of one million dollars had
been put into real estate improvements
by Wheeling people during that season,
there were many who shook their heads,
expressed the opinion that the thing
was being overdone, and that there
would be a great falling of in building
operations for years to come.
These gruesome predictions did not
have proper foundation.
Enquiries by REGISTER reporters
have developed the fact that nearly or
quite seven hundred thousand dollars
are going into new work this year, not
in any manner included in the figures
for 1891, and there is every indication
that the 1898 record will fully come up
to three-Quarters OF a million dollars, If
it does not surpass those figures, as a
great many people are at present very
strongly inclined TO put up new business
houses and residences next spring.
In residences alone, the record OF this
year is strong. Inside the city limits
new dwellings have absorbed about
$3.50, 900 this year, and about 100000
more is being expended ty Wheeling
business men in suburban residences
out the pike. Other buildings within
the city absorb quarter Of million
dollars mare, and contracts for nearly
SlOO, 900 additional have been signed, on
which work has not yet been started,
but will be before the season is over.
The list, as revised by several archi-
tects, is as follows

A CUTTING sCRAPE.
One CoIered Man Carved Up Another,
Last Evening.

One CoIered Man Carved Up Another,
Last Evening.
About five minutes after six o'clock
last evening cutting ARRAY occurred
Just in front of jones' saloon, back Of
the Second ward market house, in
which Nelse Berry was badly cut by
William Stanard. Both parties are col
ored.
The two young men had falling out
about some trifiing matter, and Berry
ran out into the street and picked up a
stone. Stanard followed him, and be-
fore Berry could throw, Stanard whip
ped out razor and cut cash two
inches and half long in Berry's right
cheek and another of nearly the same
size in his right upper arm. About that
time officers Herbert and Reitz arrived
and arrested both men. AT the City
Hall DR.. Spragg sewed up the cuts, and
Berry was released on bail, while Stan
ard was locked up.

the outlaw herd his posse has consisted
for the most part Of men from Union
town.
And the oldest feature OF this most
deplorable situation is that the man, or
men, who capture Frank Cooley, the
acknowledged leader of the gang, Will
pocket a reward of 81, 600 and earn the
admiration and respecto OF every respect
able man In the section. One thousand
dollars in crisp new bank notes would
mean fortune TO many a man in Fair
chance, who has it in his power TO
pocket it by betrying the gang,
Just what will be the ultimate out
come Of the present muddle it is diff
cult to say. Mccormick, the Sheriff OF
Fayette county, has certainly done all
I'm his power to break up the gang, but
thus far his efforts have proved worse
than useless. After every attempt to
capture them the outlaws grow holder.
The Sheriff is alike disguised aud dis
pirited az his lack of success. He has,
so he says, spent $500 Of his own money
i'm organizing posses, etc, and has re-
ceived nothing in return. He still be-
lieves that a posse Of 800 men could, II
properly directed, surround and capture
the gang. But the great difficulty IS to
find 800 men who are

A HORRIBLE STORY
Of the kidnapping Of Young Girls in Austria
ior Turkish Harems.

NtENNN, Oct. 2O.--A sensation has been
caused by the discovery that there has cx
listed for a long time past in Austrian Ga
iicia regularly organized gang of kidnap-
pcrs who have made their business the de-
mand for young girls intended for the
harcms of wealthy Turks in Constant.

The gang composed of men and women
are making large sums of money through
their traffic They would visit the various
towns in Galicia and make the acqua,n-
tance of the pretticst AMI most shapely girls.
Then they would hold out to them in glow
ing colors the money and fine clothes 10 be
had, the lives of leisure to he led, If they
would go to Constantinoplc, where rich
men were waiting u chance to marry
them. How many of the girls fell
into the trap will probably never be known,
but it is certain that the number is large.
for, since the workings of the gang have be
come known, 60 of the victims have been
released from various haroms in Constant
nople through the efforts Of the Austrian
Embassy there. ..,,,.i.
In some eases where the girls were par
,icularly attractive and refused to listen to
the proposals made to them, the gang dill
not hesitate to forcibly abduc. them. Then
they were druggcd aud when they gained
full possession Of their senses they found
themselves immurcd within harem walls,
Their language was not underst0oh anl
their appeals for release fell on deaf ears
Some of the stories told by the released
girls regarding their treatment by their
masters are horrible.
Us soon ~ the facts became known to
the authorities they began u search for the
mcmbcr- of the gang. AMI before lone they
had q persons in custody, They are now
awaiting trial at Lemburg. the capital of
