THE M'NICH0L CASE.
Chief McNichol's Attorneys Flo O
Demurrer for tho City.
NO FURTHER PROCEEDINGS HEARD.
Tho Case Set for Next Saturday for
Argument by the Opposing Counsel.
Tho Allegations Of the Defendant
us TO Errors in tho Declaration.

In tho circuit court yesterday Judge
Melvin md City Solicitor Riley, MS at
torncys for Chief Of Police Robert Nc.
Nichol and the city, filed n demurrer to
the petition in tho nature OF q writ OF
quo warranto fled last week by Colonel
Arnctt and Denis O'Kecffc, on behalf OF
ex.Chief D%elbrugge, who alleged that he
was wrongfully kept from the Office.
There was Il good deal OF curiosity as
to what course Chief McNichol's attor.
ncys would pursue. Tho formal do.
murrcr was q brief document, and argu.
mont on it was deferred till Saturday,
much to the disappointment Of people
about the court house.
Following is the demurrer in FULL:
Tho State Of West Virginia Mt tho in.
stance OF Louis Dclbruggo vs.. Robert I.
McNichol, information III the nature,
etc. The defendant, Robert Il. Nc
Nlchol, now comes and says that tho in
formation Is not sufficient in law, and
~. b'o"'iao "a ucuIuTIcE usslSus llc
following:
|. ltfails to show that tho said Del
brugge was or Is II person interested,
there being no sufficient averment that
Mt the time OF the alleged intrusion, or
since, he was, or is lawfully entitled to
exercise tho powers or perform the
duties OF the Office OF sergeant OF the
city Of Wheeling, and it not appearing
that he is a citizen and taxpayer OF
such city.
z. The allegation to the effect that
the defendant at the time named held
tho office or position Of deputy sergeant
OF the said city, is not pertinent to
any issue, but is irrelevant and imma.
tcrial.
3. Other errors and imperfections.
Robert 4. McNichol, by T. s. Riley
and Thayer Melvin, attorneys.
Even ii the petition should be de-
clared insufficient, that would not end
the proceeding, but simply require the
filing OF Il new declaration. Tho set
ting OF the points raised in the de-
murrer will be but a preliminary step,
unless u defeat on that issue should dis
courage Dclbruggo and he should stop
his sport.

The favorite comedicnnc, Mattio Vick-
ers, will appear at tho Grand for two
nights, Monday and Tuesday next,
changing the programme each night,
introducing her two latest successful
comedies, "EdclwcIss" and "The Circus
Queen"
Among the romantic legends OF the
TYrol those which cluster around the
"Edelweiss," the little flower OF the
mountains, are tho most frequently
related, and growing Us it does in the
most dangerous and almost inaccessible
places, high up among tho crags and
prccipices OF the Alps, he must indeed
be a daring as well US IN expert noun
taineor who gathers the "noble white
flower. Owing to this circumstance, 4
custom has obtained among the peas
antry OF tho Tyrol for hundreds OF
years, which puts it in tho power Of the
peasant maid, who is the unwilling
object OF Il distastcful lovers attentions,
to quickly rid herself OF them. "Go,'
she says; pluck the Edelweiss and
bring it to me."-Thc task imposed is
OF such danger that it is usually de-
clined, but if tho lover is sufficiently
devoted to attempt it and succeeds in
laying the white blossoms at the feet OF
his lady love, she is in honor bound to
accept him. In Germany the "Edel-
weiss" is known as the "Bethrothal
Flower"
The comedy "Edelwciss" depends to
some extent on this legend, combined
with another, equally old, and which
the authorsshas modcrnized to meet the
requirements OF the stage OF the present
day, and affords this delightful actress
an opportunity to display hervcrsatility.

really yet in embryo, anu nobody can

eral wNy. Until! this morning, any an
nounccment that such IN arrangement
had been agreed on was premature, and
even now it cannot be said that tho
combine will be made.
il few days ago a circular was issued
by q few oil the factories not in the
United States company, calling q meet
ing OF manufacturers for conference on
the subject, to DO held at the Hotel
Windsor i'll this city yesterday. In re-
Spouse to this call q fairly representa-
tive number OF tho independent fact
cries showed up in the person Of their
officers, to confer OIL the proposition.
Tho meeting was short, and all that
those present would say after adjourn
ment was that they had discussed tho
proposition to some extent, and had
then adjourned to meet again in the
future.

The Pittsburgh Dispatch printed an
article about tho meeting yesterday, re-
produced hero in tho afternoon, which
caused much amusement in the ranks
OF the manufacturers who were inter-
cstcd. Among other bad breaks was Il
statement that one or two factories
would be in the new combine which are
already III the United States company.
There were, so far us can be definitely
ascertained, eight factories represented
at the meeting at the Windsor last
evening. Seven OF these were the Buck
eye and the E!son, OF Martins Ferry,
the Crystal, Of Bridgeport. the River
side, OF Wcl!sburg, the Greensburg,

Of Beaver Falls, Pa and the

WOONSOCKET,

The Common Council last evening ap-
propriated 1900 for building additions
on the Providence street and Grove street
school houses
Councilman Gould moved that the
mayors veto relative to the license COM
missioners bill be taken from the table.
which was seconded by Johnson, one of
the Republican members, who said he
thought the mayor was all right and the
law should not be changed.
This detection of johnson threw con-
sternation into the Republican ranks, and
the motion was lost on a tie vote.
1t was narrow escape, for had the veto
been brought to a vote, it could not have
been passed at that meeting. 1t still
reposes on the table, where it will remain
until June 8. the regular meeting of the
Common Council.

il this plan could be accomplished the
attendance would be increased twenty
five per cent, while the expenses, after
the first cost, would be considerably less.
If the grounds can be secured. they will

A Tennessee Marshal Brutally Beated 10
Death BY Negro Safe Blowersi
NASHVILLE, Tenn, May ia special
to the American from Toccoa, Va, says:
Marshal Carter of Toccoa discovered four
negroes drilling into the Toccos National
Banks vault yesterday morning between
3 and o'clock. Alone he entered the
building, contemplating the capture OF
the gang, but the instant he stepped
through the door he was discovered and
desperate fight ensued, during which
the marshal's head was crushed to
jelly.
Beside the body of the dead marshal
wero footprints that led toward the rail-
road, and in a box car were found the
bloody pieces Of steel with which his
head had been crushed in. From the car
tracks led toJim Redman's house. Red
man was arrested and after an interview
with the officers, Will Bruce, Gus Roberts
and Bob Anderson, negroes, were pulled
in. The evidence before the coroners
jury shows that the four negroes are re-
sponsible for the marshal's death and the
safe blowing. II is feared that they will
be quickly dealt with.
