The W. L. Wilson Tariff Students
held an enthusiastic meeting last even
ing to make final arrangements for at
tending the inaugural ceremonies at
Washington. At the request OF the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad company the
students agreed to allow the train OF
the Young Mems Democratic Club to
be attached to theirs, because the com.
pany could not handle SO many special
trains, owing to the present pressure
on the transportation department
Orders were given for twenty add.
tional new uniforms, making total OF
ninety.eight men who have now obli-
gated themselves TO attend,
The sleeping car diagram was in the
hands OF Capt, John I. Lane and Capt.
Thomas Burke, OF the Baltimore Y
Ohio road, and berths were apportioned
to the members OF the club who have
siGnified their intention OF visiting
Washington.
The commssary stores that this club
has laid in will excite the wonder OF
those who will take in this trip. The
list includes everything from tooth
pick to q ham, all being donated by
friends OF the club.
The Opera House band will discourse
sweet melody for the party and add to
the attractions OF the journey,

a Motor Ovcrtnrns Wagon Throwing
Out Two Men.
Yesterday morning about nine o'clock
an electric motor ran into wagon in
Benwood aud overturned the latter in
juring the two occupants.
The scene of the accident was central
Benwood. The wagon with James
Queen, an old street car motorman, aud
man named Russell in it was going
down tho street to the right OF the
street car. The car was started around
Il flying switch with full power on, when
at almost the same instant tho wagon
was turned to the left to cross the track.
Before the motorman could control his
car i. had struck the wagon, breaking
tho hind wheel and bending the axle.
The two men i'll the wagon were thrown
tout into the street, but neither was
badly injured.
So far as known no blame can attach
to the motorman as he supposed the
wagon would uot cross tho track at that
point.

BOARD on pupLIo woRKs

Elects Rudolph I'rant Street Superintend-
cnt and Tom Darrah Clerk.
Messrs. G, Schmidt, Andrew Hamil-
ton and Henry schmulbach, who were
recently elected by Council as the board
OF public works, met at the city build
ing last evening and organized perma-
neptly, Mr.. Schmidt being elected as
president.
After the usual routine business was
disposed OF the new board proceeded to
I'll the positions at its disposal Most
of the interest was Gentered on the cleo
ton OF superintendent OF streets, there
being no less than eight candidates
anxious to got their grip on the soft
snap held by the present incumbent,
John II. Clark,
For tho position OF clerk Thomas Nj,
Darrah had a walll-over for reelection,
his only opponents being Jonas Pickett
and Christian Siebke. When the board
effected the election OF Rudolph
Brant as superintendent OF streets u
gentle ripple OF surprise swept over
those present not unmiXGd with little
wrath, 1t being generally understood
among outsiders that there were two
other candidates who thought they had u
cinch on the position. Among those
who sought the place were j, H.. Clark,
the present superintendent, Thomas G..
Bennett, NJ. B. Bailey, James Healy,
Con Loenhart Harry Rumble, I. Lana
han and @. Black.
Tom Bennett and NJ. B. Bailey, ex-
councilman from the Fifth ward, had
the strongest iollowings.
Brant who was elected, however, had
been doing some quiet but really etlec-
tive canvassiMg with the above result.
For some time past he has been en-
ployed rs driver in the Eighth ward
fire department. He intends to start
out with the intention OF making n
clean record for the street department.
Among improvements desired by the
department is q new street sweeper OF
the latest improved pattern, as the
old one not being OF much use can
only be used at night to raise cloud OF
dust or scatter the mud along cutters.
The one in view will be similar to those
used in all large cities. When they are
used during the day, being closed, they
gather up the debris without raising
any dust and deposit it in piles instead
OF spreading it out.
