finances to the council, Mr. Donworth con-
tinues:
In pursuance of the charter powers tire mayor
and council in December las, passed an orti-
nance entitled. "An ordinance TO prevent the
Unauthorized mourning of expense anu con-
tracing OF bills by the departments and officers

are forbidden to contract any expense without

to an exercise of the power o. the council 20

mentS l ind nothing in the charter TO show
contrary intention. but the sections quoted in
dleate that the council has absolute control
over the expenditure of the city money
1t is my opinion, therefore, in the absence OF
an ordinance you have the power 10 appoint
physician to reside at the pes, house only on
the understanding that he is to serve without
compensation. You have no power TO employ
physician and require his compensation TO be
paid by the city. except 10 the extent that you
are authorized by ordinance tn expend money.
In ordinance No. 2,7i6 authorizing the ex-
penditures 10 be incurred by the city govern
mcnt In the month OF May, 1893. find that you
are authorized TO incur contingent expenses TO
the sum OF $40, If the state OF public health re-
quires H. You have right TO incur expense TO
this amount II, in your Judgment, the state OF
the public health requires, and such expense
may be incurred tor the salary of physician,
as well rs any other purpose. provided that the
total amount OF expense Incurred by you during
the month does not exceed the total amount
authorized By the ordinance.
The simple question is. how much expense
are you authorised to contract by ordinance? Ii
there is a sufficient expense authorized and
physician is needed, you have right To employ
him and consider his compensation AS a charge
against tho appropriation should the city
council decline Is authorize an expenditure FOR
salary or supplies deemed By you necessary, the
responsibility for the refusal would be upon the
city council.
President James Shannon OF the board said
yesterday that, so long the council had al
lowed $ a day for resident physician, there
would be no conflict OF power il any physician,
could be found no would accept the position.
The meeting of the board called for yesterday
afternoon TO consider this question was pest
poned until Monday afternoon.

There is every indication now that
matters have settled down materially
in this city and there will DO more
straight tickets voted next Tuesday
than is usual The voters realize fully
that an Y in the circle of the ticket
with the American eagle Mt its head Is
a Republican vote, nnd that an y IN
any other circle or in any other place is
Democratic vote, no matter what Gun
ming name it may be disguised by. The
word has gone forth and the bird OF
freedom will perch high and dry in
next Tuesdays ballot, especially in this
city and county.
The Bellaire members of Hopo Com.
mandery, Knights Templar, got full
share OF the list OF officers, as the follow.
ing result OF the last election shows: l,
II. Castor, eminent commander
Thomas Burtod, generalissimo; J. A.,
Greenfield, captain general; Charles i.
Strahl, senior warden; st. John Rock.
ershousen, junior warden; j. b. Meyer,
recorder; Henry NJ. Davies, treasurer;
J. w. Oberman, standard bearer;
Charles S. Frint, sword bearer; Is. X.
Johnson, warden.
Hon. Ross j. Alexander has at last
been provided for, but 1t is doubtful ii
he accepts the place doled out by the
national administration. He has been
rendered a land commissionership in
the new state OF Washington. The pay,
including perquisites, is said to be
good, but what drop this is from u
postmaster generaship.
The Democrats here are taking some
comfort out OF tho fact that Congress.
man Pearson, OF this district, delivered
the silver repeal bill TO President
Cleveland for his signature, and that
after this last official act the Congress
man was presented with the quill the
President used in signing it.
There was n splendid turnout OF the
firemen and Red Men at the funeral oil
John W. Woods yesterday afternoon,
and Hackett's brass band accompanied
the procession to Martins Ferry, where
he was buried with honors by the or
CARNATIONS named.
The Democratic managers are dis
heartened. Their only hope is Repub'
liCan votes, and 80 far they have been
short OF cash to catch the floating vote
with, and close watch is being kept
upon them during the last hours ofthe
canvass.
Later news from the disastrous fire at
the Rodeter-HohIman factory at Elwood,
Ind, indicates that the firm is well
nigh ruined by Having small insurance
and heavy loss.
Every effort is being made here to
have Rodeter Bros. glass factory started
up, and it is probable, when the ex'
element OF the election is over, they
will start.

sad and shocking accident occurred
Yesterday on the Baltimore d Ohio rail-
road at Glen Easton, resulting in the
almost instant death OF an aged man
named D. MiionS.
Mr.. Miiiong, who was seventy years
old, was moving from his former home
to a small town named Aleppo. At
Glen Easton he got of the train and
was standing on the track when passen-
Ger tram No. 4 came along. This train
passes Glen Easton at p. m, and does
no. s.acken its speed. 1t is supposed
,ga old man did not hear its approach,
or iha. he became confused and could
not gfD out OF the way.
THE engine struck him, and he re.
ceIvaI injuries from which he died in a
very few minutes.
The train was drawn by engine No.
S-l, in charge OF Engineer Charles

for tho accident, which he regretted as
much as anybody possibly could.
