The Question of County AID for the Poor.
At Yesterdays special session Of the
Board Of County Commissioners the re-
port Of Messrs. McGregor and Bates,
the committee appointed TO make per-
sonal and minute examination into the
condition of those receiving county aid
outside of the InGrmary, was read, and
large portion Of the afternoon was
taken up in discussion OF the question
of how to best meet the requirements OF
the individuals and families and at the
same time keep within the law on the
subject. The Board, while disposed to
extend aid to the utmost extent OF
their power, will look very closely into
the facts upon applications for aid being
made to them, and will withhold such
aid wherever there is any improperly
in the grant.

ELKs' SOCIAL SESSION.

Tonight the &. P. o. Elks, Wheeling
Lodge No. 2s, will hold social session
at the Grand Opera House, at the con-
clusion of the performance Of the James
Reilly Company. This will be the most
successful event Of its nature in the

a more elaborate scale than ever be-
fore. The members of the Gus Will
liams and James Reilly companies will
be present, and will aid materially in
making the merriment for the mem
bers and their friends. Tickets can
be secured by members from c. r.

able home gatherings. There will,
however, be very few elaborate affairs,
but there will he public balls galore,
as nearly every dance hall in the city
has been engaged.

calendar which are always looked for
ward TO with pleasant anticipation by
the epicure, and this is one OF them.
Fortunately there are "hard times"
prices on the articles which are gener-
ally included in the menu for to-day's
principal meal, and this fact will enable
everybody to observe Thanksgiving
with an elaborate spread, if in no other
way.
Probably never before were there
more general preparations for the re-

bined, and will conduct union services.
The congregations Of the First, Second

ME FOOT-BALL GAME.

As a matter Of course, one of the days
chief attractions will be the football
game at the State Fair Grounds this
afternoon, for the benefit OF the City
Hospital. Enough tickets have already
been sold for the affair to insure its
success. If the weather is favorable
the crowd will be larger than any that
ever assembled in the city TO
witness an athletic sport. The COM
peting teams will be from the Wheeling
Gymnasium and the Martins Ferry Y.
NJ. C. A. There is a great deal Of spec
ulation as TO the result of the contest,
which is made more interesting from
the fact that the local eleven will make
its initial appearance. Aside from the
fact that an excellent game is certain,
the affair should be patronized because
OF the worthy object.
The game tomorrow afternoon will
be called promptly at o'clock. Chas.
Coo Ike, Of this city, will officiate as UNI
pire. The general admission to the
grounds, as will be seen by an adver-
tisement in another column, has been
reduced to 25 cents. The two teams
will line up to-day as follows:

SHOOTING AT PROVO.
William Halstead Shoots w. E. Perry
in the Face.
The Trouble Grew Out of Disagreement
Over a Lease of Property-The
Wound Not Fatal.

Provo, Feb. 17.-[Special. IA. E.
Perry, who is connected with Provo steam
laundry, was shot in the face this after
noon at o'clock, by William Halsted of
the same institution. A feud came up
between the men through some disagree
ment over lease of property.
Halstead was endeavoring to get papers
in Perry's possession and have the mat
ters fixed up, but the latter took an
aggressive attitude and ordered him away &.
at the same time finging a pair of iron
tongs at Halsted.
Immediately afterwards he went into
his house and secured shotgun, came to
the kitchen door, and is said to have
fired twice. Haisted was in possession of
a pistol and also fired two shots, one OF
which hit Perry in the side of the nose,
the BAH coming out at the jaw
The wounded man was taken into the
house bleeding freely. DR.. G. w. Spores
and DR.. Smart took him in charge and
dressed TIE wounds which is not thought
to be fatal.
Halstead gave himself up to the sheriff
and was placed in the county jail. He is
an Odd Fellow aud members of that order
are endeavoring to secure his release.
Those who witnessed the shooting
would say but little as to how it occurred,
but the opinion is that Halstead was justi-
fed in what he did. Hastead was

- The Question of Maintaining the
Gold Reserve.
MR.. SHERMAN'S AMENDMENT
He Wants 1t Made Rider on the SUM-
dry Civil Bill.
Senators Stewart ard Teller Both Figh
the Matter and the Question Finally
Goes Over without Action
Work of the House.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE sundry
civil bill occupied the Senate most of the
time today. The amendment discussed
yesterday, the effect of which is to con-
tinue in effect the law for federal super
Visors of elections, was carried by party
vote.
question as to che issue of per cent
bonds to maintain the gold reserve was
precipitated on the Senate in an amend
ment by Mr.. Sherman.
Mr.. Stewart raised a point of order
against it, was overruled, appealed and
the appeal laid on the table, % to IS.
The merits of the amendment were dis
cussed for the remainder of the day. In
the course of the discussion MIR. Stewart
said there was no necessity to sell bonds
and buy coin as there was 5000, 900, 600 OF
silver coin and bullion in the treasury
and Sos, 600, 900 In gold, thus making over
500, 200, 600 IN coin or what might be
converted into coin. If silver was good
. money for the people it was good for
B everybody, and there was plenty of it.
Mr.. Mills moved to strike out the five
year provision and leave the bonds re-
deemable at the pleasure of the govern
ment.
Mr.. Sherman thought it was not a wise
venture on Mr.. Mills motion now. He
did not believe any considerable amount
of per cent. bonds would ever be issued
yet at the same time the contingency
should be provided Tor. The power to
issue would, he thought, enable the sec
rotary of the treasury to maintain the re-
serve without issuing them.
Mr.. Teller opposed the amendment be-
cause the bankers and brokers OF New
York desired that the government might
Issue securities on which they might bank
Mr.. VOORHEES, supported the amend
ment, and without disposing of it the
Senate adjourned.

oEvisT IN HAWAII.
The ProvisioBaI Government Daily Gain
ing Confidence

The ProvisioB9i Government Daily Gain
ing Confidence
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 1.-THE steam
ship Belgic from Hong Kong and Yoko-
hama arrived this morning, touched at
Honolulu Feb. 10, leaving a Chinaman
who came down with smallpox soon af-
ter leaving Yokohama. As the vessel
lacked clean bill of health from Homo
lulu she was sent to quarantine, and the
full extent of her news from Hawaii will
not be known till after the vessel is fumi-
gated.
1t is learned, however, that everything
was quiet in the islands. The provisional
government is daily gaining confidence
and the approval OF all classes, and the
| feeling so much improved that the state
of martial law was removed on the 9th
though a detachment of marines
from the steamer Boston was still
quartered on the shore. Everybody was
anxiously awaiting the action of the
United States and willing to abide by the
decision.
The United States warship Mohician
was steaming into the harbor OF Honolulu
as the Belgic left. The steamer Monowa
intended to leave Honolulu four hours
after the Belgic, and is expected here to-
day.
The provisional government has elected
L. NJ. Damon vice-president, to provide
for contingency of the president dying.
resigning, or becoming disabled. The
government also ordered out of print the
royal arms of Hawaii which have been
used on all official documents. This is
regarded as a direct preparation for an
nexation. When the United States pro-
tectorate was established The right of
heabeas corpus was restored and martial
law suspended; volunteer troops also dis
banded and causes of friction disap-
peared.
An international incident will prob
ably follow the arrest of G. J. Kynnersly
of the island of Hawaii, a British sub
ject. When notice of the formation of a
provisional government reached Johala
he called mass meeting, tore down the
proclamation and defied the sheriff to ar
rest him. The provisional government
on hearing of this sent orders for his ar
rest on charge of melting sedition.
Kynnersly is a prominent man and an in
innate friend of the British minister. and
it is expected a clash will follow.
The deposed queen lives quietly at her
residence. In talk with an Associated
press representative she said: sit is not
the Americans who are making this
trouble, but those who received lands and
sustenance from Hawaiians who are partly
Hawaiian themselves, but who are now
hanging between heaven and hell, and if

An IMPORTANT DISPATCH.
Secretary Fosters Instructions
to Minister Stevens.
THEY ARE VERY EXPLICIT.
The DepOsed Queen Forwards Pro-
test to the President.
Everything Is Quiet on the Islands-Thc
Provisional Government Is Daily Gain
ing Confidence-MartiaI Law Re-
moved-Late Honolulu Advices.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE CORES
pondence sent to the Senate by the presi-
dent, to accompany the Hawaiian treaty,
contains the text of Secretary Foster
dispatch of February IL, an abstract of
which went out by last mails to Honolulu,
disavowing Stevens protectorate. This
important dispatch reviews Stevens acts
and then concludes: $50 far, therefore,
as your action amounts to according at
the request of the sovereign government
OF the Hawaiian Islands the cooperation
OF the moral and material forces of the
United States for the protection of life
and property from apprehended disorders,
your action is commended. But so far as
it appears to overstep that limit by setting
the authority and power of the United
States above that of the government of
the Hawaiian islands, in the capacity of
protector, or to impair in any way the in
dependent sovereignty of the Hawaiian
government by 81 bstituting the flag and
power of the United States as a symbol
and manifestation of paramount authori-
ty, it is disaVowed.'
"You are authorized upon receipt of
these instructions to arrange with the
commanding naval officer for the con-
tlnued presence on shore of such marine
force as practicable and requisite for the
security of the lives and property inter
ests of citizens of the United States, and
the repression of lawIessness and public
disturbance threatening them, whenever
in your judgment it shall be necessary so
to do, or when such cooperation meas
ures may De sought for good cause by the
government of the Hawaiian islands,
being, however, always careful to make
due discrimination between those func-
tons of voluntary or accorded
protection and assumption of a
protectorate over the Hawaiian Islands
by the United States. No step should be
taken by you, or will be sanctioned by
this Cover nment, which might tend to
derogate in any way from the independ-
ence of the government of the Hawaiian
Islands which the United States have rec
ognized as sovereign and with which they
will treat on terms of sovereign equality.

GENERAL cARR's RETIREMENT.
He Writes a Vigorous Letter Protesting
Against 1t.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 17.-Brigadier- General
E. A. Carr, whose retirement is alleged
in some quarters to have been brought
about with purpose. has filed with the
president vigorous protest. In the letter
after quoting the orders sent him at his
promotion, he says: SIN accordance with
the above l reported on the first day of
August and saw General Schofield
in person. He told me he prom
ised you that l should, if promoted,
retire from active service for you to fill
the vacancy occasioned by such retire
ment. was astonished at this statement
and told General Scofeld that had l
known such promise l would not have &C
cepted the appointment OF brigadier gen.
eral. Now am called upon to carry out
a bargain made without my knowledge or
consent, and when 1 decline am threat
ened by General Scofield with forcible re-
tirement.
NY record in the army is the only leg
acy l have to transmit to my posterity,
and determined that no act of mine, by
accepting a promotion secured by un-
authorized promises, and immediate re-
tirement, shall be part OF that record
| appeal to you, therefore, Mr.. Presi-
dent, to consider the situation in which
l have been placed without my
knowledge or consent, and 1
also do respectfully but earnestly pro-
test against any action being taken look
ing to my involuntary retirement from
the active list of the army, without at
least a full hearing of my side of the case,
which has so far been imperfectly pre-
sented. l am sir, with great respect, your
obedient servant, r. A. CARR,
Brigadier and Brevet Major General.

WYOMING'S CONTEST.
Four Ballots Taken Yesterday With
No Result.
General Thompson Can Yet Be Elected
If the Democrats VIII Unite Upon Him
The Last Day of the Session.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Feb. 17.-[Speciall
-Four ballots were taken by the legisla-
ture in joint session today for United
States senator, with no choice. The Re-
publican vote was cast each time for G.
D. Clark, the Populists voted for William
Brown, the Democrats for John Charles
Thompson, George w. Baxter, r. H.
Homer and George T. Beck. The session
will close tomorrow
Tine Populists will vote for j ohm Charles
Thompson tomorrow if he gets the full
Democratic vote. They assert they will
vote for no other Democrat. Beck and
Baxter alone stand in the way of an cleo
ton. 1t is believed if the Democrats fail
to unite with the Populists on Thompson
on the first ballot the Populists will join
forces with the Republicans and elect
Warren.
A strong pressure is being brought to
bear on Beck and Baxter to have them
withdraw absolutely in Thompson's
favor. If unsuccessful the election of q
Republican may be expected.
