GETTING AT THE MEAT.
Russell Sage and Sydney Dillon Tell Why
They Left the Reading.

New YORK, March SIN the Read
ing combine investigation to-day, Sgd
ney Dillon, the first witness, told what
little he knew about the change in d.
rectorship OF the New Jersey Central
and the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western. Messrs. Maxwell and Baker
had acquired 100000 shares Of the Del
aware, Lackawanna and Western, more
than one-third of the whole, and had
therefore TO have d representation In
the board. Accordingly Mr.. Sage and
himself were retired TO make a va
cancy.
Russell Sage was the next witness.
He was examined OH much the same
lines as Mr.. Dillon, and gave the same
reasons for his retirement from the
directory as those given by Mr.. Dillon
for his retirement. He understood
shat there was to be an exchange Of
directors, and two Of the Jersey Central
directors were to be put in the Lacka-
wanna board. That programme had
been carried out as he understood.
Mr.. Sage said that combination Of
the coal carrying railroads would force
prices up.
"You think the intention is to ad-
vance prices as far as the market will
bear" said counsel.
Eyes, sir, to advance the prices as
far as they dare. have no doubt of
it. They are feeling the public pulse
at present." Mr.. Sage explained that
there was no limit to the prices. Such
contract as he understood had been
made could control the market.
5. w. Williams, Comptroller OF the
Central railroad, of New Jersey, was
the third witness. He understood there
was a combination between some OF the
roads. He had not seen draft OF the
contract between the Central and the
Reading railroads, nor had any con-
tracts between the roads been filed with
him, as there should, if such contracts
had been made. He knew of no contract
between the Lackawanna and the Read
ing, but he understood that there had
been an agreement OF some kind be-
tween the Reading and the Central.
w. G. Oakman, Secretary of the New
Jersey Central, had seen what purport-
ed TO be an agreement between his road
and the Port Reading. IL had been
sent to Philadelphia, and is now in the
hands Of the Attorney-General Of Penn
sylvania for his inspection. The con-
tract providing for the lease Of the
property of the Central to the Port
Reading for d certain consideration,
10 per cent on the stock of the New
Jersey Central to the maximum amount,
and per cent. the minimum. 1t was
practically a permanent lease or trans
fer. He did not think that the combi-
nation of railroads would affect the price
of coal as far as consumers were con-
cerned. 1t might raise the price to the
big buyers.

REEoRMAroRY For Girls.

The New York Legislature has passed
a bill providing for reiormatOry for
women in New York.
The Legislature Of West Virginia
should take this hint and at its next
session pass such a measure. Any man
with ordinary powers of observation
will Immediately recognize the necessity
for such an institution in this State.
AT present we surround our criminal
boys with every opportunity to recover
themselves and start afresh, but deny
an equal privilege TO our criminal girls
We send the boys to our Reform School
and send the girls to jail to become
more criminal by vicious association
and hard surroundings.
There is a very large number OF
girls who need to be assisted to lead bet
ter lives, and it is the duty Of our law
makers to see that they are given at
least an equal chance with the boys to
do so.

HER HAPPIEsT HOUR.
A Little Incident That Made One Woman
Thoroughly Contented with Life

/ chicago TribuHs.
There is nothing that so delights the
right sort Of woman as to the means
of identifying one of her own sex who
does not understand the little things In
! the way of dress which are so essential
| to bringing out the attractlveness OF
the wearer. There comes time In the
life OF the sort Of woman in mind when
she loves TO do this thing, not oaly on
account of q desire to make
her friend look well. but because
such work knocks the dust
off the strings Of her own heart and
sets in tune the songs OF the nights
when she did the same thing for her
sdlf and for the one for whom she was
waiting. We men rift away from these
things. A woman never. The whittier
the hair becomes the more wrinkles
there are in the face, the DINNER tho
landscape the more does the right sort
Of woman go back to the little things
which made her life more respondent
than reality capped with the trappings
Of an empire ever could have done.
Here is the story: A girl has come
to Chicago at the behest Of good and
sensible woman to go with her 10 the
Charity ball. The girl lives in one OF
the country towns, a days travel from
Chicago. She came in with her man.
mas biggest trunk, packed with all she
has that would be proper TO put on for
! ball. Her good and sensible friend
received her, and after dinner they
went TO make preparations for the
ball. The woman, about whose face
there is gathering the shades of even
ing, and in whose still luxuriant hair
there are intimatiOns Of sleepless nights
and waltings, and all those things
which tell on women, saw her beauty
from the country try on garment after
garment until the stock was exhausted
and had said mo" to each one. Then
she sent.her maid for one of her own
gowns, one that had rustled
to the music Of other nights,
and this was placed upon the beauty.
The gown had been made over, to use
an expression peculiar to woman's
kingdom. 1t was pulled in here: tucked
up there; Tapped over somewhere; ad-
ded TO by bit of ribbon or lace, until
the girl was tired, until she looked in
the mirror. She realized that she was
beautiful. Women know when they
look well. And that night at the Chart
~ ball she was the object of hundred
admiring glances. The woman who had
made her so with her own old clothes
sat in the box watching her rustic beau
ty, and perhaps she had some sensations
of dreamy waltz of long ago as she
looked down upon the conquests which
her beauty from the country was max
ing. 1T was the happiest hour have
experienced for many years." she said
to her friend who has told this story.

TO EVERYBODY IN GENERAL.

Thee committee appointed TO take
charge Of the proposed celebration Of
the joint opening OF the Main street
bridge and the electric light plant have
made no move as yet, though the time
is getting short and all are heartily in
favor OF the project.
This is not as it should be. The
business men of the city should wake
up to the importance of the occasion
and take advantage of it TO display TO
the outside world the inducements
Wheeling offers to all desirable classes
to locate hereto the manufacturer
and the laborer, to the private resident
and the merchant.
1t must be borne in mind that while
our railroad facilities have been vastly
improved of late we are not yet on
through trunk line and that the vast
tide Of travel passes by Wheeling, at
Stcubenville on the north and Benwood
Junction on the south. In consequence,
Of this nine-tenths, probably, of the out
side world know little about Wheeling
and her splendid aud numerous advan
tageS as a manufacturing centre and
place of residence. Our growth and pro-
sperty, great as they are, have been
natural, almost solely. Remarkably
few industries or people have come to
us from the outside. They have passed
us by to locate probably in towns but
half our size, and with few Of our ad
vantages. And why? Simply because
while we have been, practically, sleeping,
contentsd with our natural growth, they
have been up and hustling, advertising
themselves-and profting thereby.
All this should be changed.
We should wake up and let the rest OF
the country know where and what we
are.
No better opportunity of doing so,
probably, will ever present itself than
the proposed joint celebration Of the
opening Of the largest and finest
municipal electric plant in the world
and one of the grandest stone arch
bridges ever built.
For more than hundred miles around
we would attract thousands. From
Toledo and Columbus on the west TO
Pittsburg and Harrisburg on the east
and throughout the State people whom
we want would visit US gladly.
We are assured that the railroads
will give reduced rates, and altogether
there will be no trouble in getting up a
grand celebration that will need but
little advertising TO make it go"
and which will be of lneStimable
benefit to the city from every point of
view.
All that is needed is start. Every
body wants TO take hand and is will
ing and ready to do so, but nobody
knows how to begin, simply for lack
of directing head and front to the
movement.
The REGISTER suggests that the Cham
Der of Commerce make the first move,
and that the ward committees appointed
meet as early as possible.
Let US once get the thing started and
10 will 90 Of itself.

Stuff They Used to Make Warriors OF.


VINCENNEs, IND, March 5.-Rev.
Jonah Abel. pastor Of the Decker Cir
cult ". +. Church, is the only man who

Abel is a man with great nerve, and de-
cIared that he is able and willing TO stay
with the white caps whenever IL comes
to bodily violence.

Washington Letter

WASHINGTON, d. c Aug. LIST, 1892
Representativ" Tom. Watson, OF
Georgia, is physically one of the small
est men in the House, but he has stirred
up very lively rumpus by publishing,
In a third party campaign book which
he has written, a charge that members
of the House haye during this session
reeled around the floor IN a beastly
state of intoxication. There was a
scene Of much excitement Wien the
charge was read IN the House by Rep
resentative Wheeler, of Alabama, dur,
ing which Mr.. Watson reiterated the
charge and announced his readiness to
prove it. The House ordered an inyes
tigation by a special committee, and
Mr. Watson and all of the people
party Representatives, except Simpson
who Is on the committee, and Miss Bes
sic DwYer testified to the truthtulness
of the charge, and other members par
TALLY did the same. The report OF the
committee is looked forward to with
much interest.
Notwithstanding the radical excur-
sions Of the thermometer, Hon. Arthur
p. German manages to keep his coat on
and present a cool and undisturbed ex-
terror.
Congress may deny Mr.. Watson s
charge Of ''drunk' but 1t would un.
doubtedly have to plead guilty to dis.
orderly"
Before the House investigation Of
congressional inebriety proceeds any
further 1t would be good idea to fix a
'tandard for Congressional jag.
