PETTY MEANNESS.
MR.. PENDLETON DISCOVERS WHY HIS ALLOT-
MENT OF SEEDS FROM
The Agricultural Department Was Withheld and
Turned Over TO Mr. Atkinson-Ths Con-
spiratOrs Dismissed BY Secretary
Rusk-A Wheeling Sol
disr's Wrath.
spsaa. Telegram to tie Register.

WASHINGTON, D. c., February p
1t will be remembered that in the last
Congress, although Mr.. Pendleton was
the sitting member from the Wheeling
district until deprived of his seat by
Mr.. Atkinson, the allotment of seeds
from the Agricultural Department, was
wrongfully held back until Mr.. Atkin-
son came in. They were then turned
over to him and he distributed them TO
his Republican friends.
When this Congress opened Mr.. Pen
dleton thought OF asking an investiga-
tion as TO the Withholding of his allot-
ment Of seeds in the last Congress. Be-
fore doing so, however, he concluded to
call on Secretary Rusk to learn what
explanation that gentleman could give
Of the affair. General Rusk assured
Mr.. Pendleton that the seeds had been
withheld without his knowledge by a
conspiracy of his subordiRates.
When he learned of what had been
done, he investigated the affair and
three employees Of the Agricultural
Department, who had been concerned
in it, were discharged. Mr.. Pendelton
also learned that fourth employe OF
the Department, man named Goshorn,
Of Kanawha county, w. Va, also had
a hand in the affair. Goshorn is mes
senger in the Department. A few days
before Mr.. Pendelton was deprived Of
his seat in the last Congress, be sent an
urgent inquiry to Secretary Rusk ask
ing why 1t was that his allotment OF
seeds had not been forwarded TO him.
Secretary Rusk at once sent an order
by Goshorn to the seed division that Mr..
PsndletOns seeds be sent him. When
Goshorn conveyed this message TO the
chief Of the seed division, it Is said, he
took it on himself to intimate that If the
seeds could be withheld for few days
they would go to Mr.. Atkinson, the Re-
publican who was put in when Mr.. Pen
dleton was turned out of his seat. Cos
horns suggestion was acted upon, and
since he became aware few days ago
that Mr.. Pendleton knew Of the circum-
stance he has been very much worried
for fear the member from Wheeling
would ask Secretary Rusk TO dismiss
him. But Mr.. Pendleton is satisfied
with the Secretary's explanation, and
will let the matter rest there.
Congressman Pendleton has received
letter from Republican in Wheeling
which bristles with indignation against
the Administration, and the Pension
Office, in particular. The writer, it
seems, has for some time had an sppli-
cation for pension on file at the PEN
sion Bureau. A few days ago, he says,
he received an ultimatum through Gen
eral Raum, informing him that his APP
plication had been rejected. and that he
didn't deserve a pension. This has made
the Republican very mad, and he de-
clares that from this out he is going TO
make war on the Republicans and the
Grand Army OF the Republic, and wants
Mr.. Pendleton to introduce bill in Con-
gress to give him pension in spite Of
General Raum.

A RARE FIND.
A New Corporation which Seems to Hav'
Nice Thing in Sight.

L
Nice Thing IN Sight.
Last night the final steps were taken
towards organizing the Brooke Terra
Gotta Tile Company, by a number OF
local business men, who, judging from
the present outlook, have very nice
thing in prospect.
Some time ago, a rather remarkable
and large deposit Of the finest terra
Gotta clay was found on the bottom
lands, Immediately on the upper edge
of the Wellsburg corporation. An eX-
animation showed that the deposit was
about fifteen acres in extent, and had
an average depth Of fifteen feet. Sam
pies Of the clay were sent away for
analysis, and when the returns came
back it was found that the clay was
even finer and better than the celebrated
Devonshire clay, one Of the finest In
the world. The right to work the
deposit was at once obtained, and
it was agreed to form company to
manufacture fire brick, terra Gotta
tiles, etc. Last evening the stockhold-
ers met in Main street business Office
and elected as directors Messrs. NJ. L.
OFT, James PAUL, L. c. Carmichael, e. W.
Franzheim and n. F. Strong. The Di-
rectors then organized by electing c.
w. Franzheim President and w. G.
Jacob Secretary. Steps will at once be
taken to put up a plant for the manu-
facture Of fancy brick, and this will
soon be supplemented by fancy pieces,
tiles, and all the fine lines of goods.
The headquarters of the Company will
be in this city.

VIM NJ RUNK'S LIFE INSURANCE.
The New York Life Pays the Executor
100000.

Harold Pierce, who placed nearly the
entire amount of the more than $780, 900
insurance on the life Of the late William
Nj. Kunk, yesterday received the follow
ing letter from A. Howard Ritter, as eX-
ecutOr:
- = To-day the New York Life Insurance
Company, through you as its general
agent, paid its policies for $780,, 900 in full
on the life of William NJ. Runk, deceased
Mr.. Runk, at the time of his DEATH car
ried assurances of over $500, 600 in some
fifteen or twenty different companies.
The New York Life is the first to pay.
1T is due to both you and your COM
pany that | should make some acknowI-
edgment of the earnest desire shown by
them to make an immediate and full set
tlement Of this claim. The proofs Of Mr.
Runk's death were not completed until
late Saturday afternoon, October Sth and
to-day the whole matter has been fully
settled"
The New York Life was the first and
for thirty-tive years the only company to
omit from its policies the claim making
them void i'll case Of suicide. The prompt
payment Of every claim was made the
one rule for all in 1850, the company be-
ing then convinced that most suicides are
the result of insanity, and that many
cases of accidental death and murder
cannot be distinguished from suicide.
As precautionary measure, however,
the company makes a strict investigation
as to tho circumstances surrounding an
applicant for insurance, and its losses
from suicide have been very slight. None
of the other companies, it is said, have
yet settled, and some Of them, it is
thought, may contest the claims OF the
estate
