I'll Tuesday next. This. bfonght Mr..
ClapD, OF Geanga, who essays to lead
the farmer members, to his feet, and he
proceeded TO score Mr.. Heinlein. The
farmers, he declared, would vote for any
measure Affecting the cities when per-
feeted by the members, and warned the
lawyers they must keep their hands off
such legislation as was demanded By the
farmers. ''If we do not get the law
from this Legislature, said Mr.. Clapp,
''we'll double our members in the next
and get what we want. Why, the mem
Der from Belmont County has seen more
dogs during the past year than he has
sheep, and doubt If he can tell a sheep
from a goat."'
Mr.. Griffin ridiculed the idea of man
who was not an active farmer attempt
ing to lead the agriculturists on the
floor, intimating broadly that Mr.. Clapp
was sailing under false eolors, and de-
manded TO know If the farmers and
lawyers had DIVIDED into classes TO tell
the other members that they must vote
for their measures. He would not be
driven into this by the threat of the
member from Geauga. Mr.. Clapp de-
clared that no threat had been made,
though Mr. Griffin's remarks were ex-
traordinary, and tried to pour oil on the
troubled waters, but the waves would
not cease rolling. Mr.. Mcconnell lam
basted the Belmont member and Mr..
McGrew, Of Clarke, showed his teeth
and growled at Mr.. Clapp; "You don't
make me vote for your bills If don't
want to-" After concilatory remarks
by Messrs. Taylor, OF Guernsey; Tay-
Tor, Of Champaign, and Heinlein the
bill and pending substitutes were post
poned until next Wednesday and order

Republicans Grow Wroth Over Very

A special from Columbus to the CleUe-
IQlld PldilL Dealer says:
This was q rather dull day in strictly
legislative circles, the members appear
ing to be listleSs and they entered upon
the work with but little spirit.
At four o'clock, after running through
the day without life or spirit in the
proceedings, there was division on the
Republican side of the House, and the
members passed some caustiC structures
on each other. 1t was during the con-
sideration Of Mr.. McCoy's bill, amend
ing section 4215 of the revised statutes,
an innocent little measure, which sim
ply provided for the proving Of claims
for damages for sheep killed by dogs
before township trustees instead OF the
county commissioners. The bill is de-
handed by the farmers, and with a
view of perfecting the propositions sew
eral minor amendments, agreed upon by
the agriculturalistS, were offered by the
author and adopted. Among other
things the bill provided that to be a
competent witness the party must be
freebooter in the township where the
sheep were killed, and Mr.. Daugherty
offered an amendment striking out this
restrictive clause, but it was defeated.
Then Mr.. Heinlein, the lawyer mem
Der from Belmont, offered a sub
stitute, which in effect provided
that the loser of sheep might make
affidavit aud present witnesses before
any official authorized to administer
oath, the afidavts to be forwarded to
the County Commissioners, and moved

HELD To COURT,
The Outcome of the Hearing of the Pay
Check Thieves.

The Outcome of the Hearing of the Pay
Check Thieves.
Walton, Flndley, Burdett and Braz-
cell, the four boys arrested for stealing
checks from the Elson Glass Company,
had hearing yesterday afternoon be-
fore Squire Keller at Martins Ferry.
The first three were bound over 10 the
sum of $500 each to await the action OF
the grand jury, and Brazzell was held
in the sum of 500. There were twelve
witnesses for the prosecution examined,
and their testimony was that they had
cashed checks TO large amount
in all for Walton and Find
lev. Burdett claimed that he got his
checks by playing poker for them In a
fishing boat, while Brazzell said he did
not steal any checks, but that he had
turned in about SIT for Walton. The
evidence was more damaging to tindiey
and Walton than against the other boys,
although the testimony only showed
that these parties had been in possession
of large amount of the pay checks OF
the Elson Glass Company when they
were not employed there; but no proof
was given TO show that they
had stolen the checks, although
everything points in that direction. One
of the witnesses testified that he had
heard in a conversation on the street to
the effect that Walton and Bnrdett had
met in the Office of the Elson Glass
Works, one night, and that Burdett was
about to strike Walton with a revolver
before he recognized him. The boys
were not represented by an attorney and
made no plea when asked if they want
ed to say anything. They will be taken
to St. Clairsville to-day. The Eison
Company was represented by Attorney

The MONONGAH B'OYCOTT.

The REGISTER very much doubts If
any such feeling exists among the mer-
chants OF Fairmont as the alleged tele-
grams undertake to make out. They are
entirely too sensibleand intelligent Be
cause there is a temporary cessation Of
the eatente e0rdiole between the Trades
Assembly Of this city and the Monon-
eah Coal Company, 10 is no reason why
all business should be suspended be-
tween the two cities. No one wants TO
bite of his nose to spite his face-ii he
knows #. Suppose the merchants Of
Fairmont were doing business
largely with Plttsburg jobbers,
aud the Trades Assembly Of
that town was to boycott the MonOngah
Coal Company. Would the Fairmont
merchants in turn undertake to boycott
the iobbers Of Pittsburg? And even if
they did, what effect would it have
uooD the Trades Assembly? Absolutely
none, except aud in so far that such
action would be to their liking, because
is would at once prove that their boy
colt was effective ana causing much
worry aud trouble.
The REGIsrEE is positive that the job
bers Of this city, and for that matter,
an classes Of her citizens, feel just as
deep an interest in the welfare Of Fair
mont merchants as they do for their
own and would go just as far to help
them.

not make the American people responSlol
for them. Neither DO we hold them 10
sponsible for the strange association OF IN
terests which leagued the dictatorlal gov
eminent with Mr.. Egan in the railroad
business.
There have not been forgotten the curl
Gus revelations made by the Fiscal OF the Su-
preme Court over the organization
and antecedents of the assoca-
ton that was formed in 1883 TO
construct ten liues in Chile under
the name of the North and South Ameri-
can Construction Company. the tlscai
demonstrated that that company never
had any capital Of its own, that III was q
mere fiction, had no discreet and reallzaole
prospects, and undertook venturesome,
If not culpable, risk, entering INTO DUST
ness of e5,500, 600 sterling.
A lengthy quotation from the Fiscals
report follows, in which the fraudulent
nature Of the scheme is shown in de-
tail; also the contract by which Minis
ter EGAN's son, FRANCIS w. EGAN, was
made the company's
true and lawful agent and attorney for it
and in its place and stead, to assume
charge OF the management and conduct Oh
all the affairs and business OF this COM
pany in the republic of Chile.
In another editorial a week later Ell
HeraIdo said, discussing the attack on
American sailors in Valparaiso and the
lack of a proper diplomatic understand
ing with the United States on the ub
ject:
Why, if we have always lconhded in the
Justice of friendly nations, is 1T to-day
feared that there may arise conflict, In
spite of the lack of occasion for one! Sim
Div because the representation OF the
United States was confided TO Mr.. Patrick
Egan, who. unfortunately, Joined his tate
with that of Balmaceda and OF has accom-
plices in the dictatorship, and who feels
himself affected, like them, by the triumph
Of the constitutional regime.
SIN the Valparaiso affair the facts about
which will not be really known until the
result of the investigation is published,
there is not, nor has there been, nor can
there be. a national offense except IN the
ewes of Mr.. Egan. Never have the
Chilean people, much less their govern
ment approved or applauded the attack
upon American mariners-an attack which,
on the contrary, has been lamented and de-
plored.
Our Chilean contemporary then pro-
ceeds in an effective way to quote Mr..
BLAINE on the New Orleans affair,
against himself and the administration
at Washington.
This is Chile's side of the question.
All these facts and circumstances were
we'll known to Mr.. HARRISON, but in no
instance in his lengthy message did he
refer to them.
