MIR. CREWS STATEMENT.
The Story of the Trouble as Briefly Told
by Another Gentleman.

The Story OF the Trouble as Briefly Told
by Another Gentleman.
The following statement was handed
in last night by Mr.. Chew as represent
alive of the Car Workers Union:
This statement demands the careful
attention of the public before passing
an opinion. 1t is now evident that the
case Of Murrin and Schmittle was only
an excuse for trouble, as Mr.. Jolly
agreed to take the two men back, pro-
viding the others would make individual
application for position. This shows
very plainly that it was hit at the or
ganization and not at the two discharg-
ed men.
1t has also been positively proven
that one week previous to the discharge
of these men Mr.. Jolly tried TO ascer-
tain what eolice protection he could get
in case of trouble, which shows that
this was premeditated. Had the COM
pany been DESTROYS of settlement they
had ample chance TO do so.
The union had three conferences with
Messrs. jolly and LOTUS, and then at
the meeting Saturday night before the
mittee to wait on Mr.. LOTUS for final
decision. President Chew also informed
Mr.. Jolly Friday evening what the re-
suit would be in case they refused to
reinstate those men. In regard to Mr..
Williams complaint against those two
men, he intended 10 get on the car
ahead of the one operated by Murrin
and Smith, but as the track was slip
perry and that car did not stop exactly
at the corner he would not get on after
the car had stopped for him.
We now submit our case to the can
did consideration OF the public. Look
at it in this light, so TO IS per cent of
the people OF Wheeling are working
people.
The question now is, which will you
sustain, the working people who are
only contending for what is due them
by the company's agreement, or will
you sustain this corporation, which has
the reputation of breaking up organized
labor? HARRY CHEW,
President Street Car Workers Union.

BETTER BIZ on YOUR GUARD.
There Is a Possibility that European En-
envy May Invade Us Again This Year-A
Suggestion in Time.


The latest news from London indicates the
prevalence of great deal OF influenza, not
only in that city, but throughout England and
Europe This Is the way the grip epidemic Of
last year started, and it is the highest part Of
wisdom and common sense to keep the system
fortified against an attack OF this terrible COM
plant.
There is an unusual amount OF coughing,
sneezing headache, pain in the muscles, espec-
tally arouns the shoulders and arms, cold feet;
in fact. all the usual grip symptoms.
You may say, do not fear the grip But %
YOU not fear the terrible things which grip may
bring: especially pneumonia, which may come
almost in q moment and cause your death with
in q day? More people die suddenly from pneu-
mona than from any other known Complaint
why? Because il comes Unexpectedly, because
il gives no warning has no symptoms, other
than those above stated and yet 1t Is the most
fatal OF all known diseases.
Ia view OF these solemn facts, what sh II any
sensible man or woman do who reads these
words? Manirestly guard against the coming
OF this dangerous disease. How: Not by dosing
with duinine, but by strengthening, by toning
the system with some pure stimnlant OF tonic
power. There ara many which claim 10 possess
this quality, but there is but one which actually
does possess IT, That one is Dufy's Pure Malt
Whiskey. II has stood the test OF years ana Is
the most popular preparation TO day known 20
the American people. Physicians recommend
il tits generally used and it is universally
admitted 10 possess qualities known only 10
Itself. Do not permit your druggist or grocer
to persuade you otherwise, but insist upon nav

five men and boys armed with missiles
ready for an onslaught.
During the day Manager Jolly, OF
the Street Car Company, telephoned to
police headquarters and asked Chief
McNichOl TO give the eompany's prop
erty police protection at Forty-thlrd
street. The Chief Immediately ordered
two officers TO 90 to that point, and he
and Officer Stump drove to the point
themselves, arriving shortly after the
trouble occurred. The three officials
on the scene were Officers Menkemyer,
Devlin aud Myers, but they were called
10 different points occasionally TO quell
disturbances. and IL was difficult for
them 10 concentrate their energies In
one spot. They did excellent service as
far ss possible. In the matter OF find
inc out lust who blOckaded the tracks
az different points IL was almost an lm-
possibility as no one would seem TO
know, or az least disposed to tell, ana
no arrests were made.
1t was reported last night that the
mob outside were going to take posses
sion OF the barn, but up TO a late hour
had not done so. Ii was also claimed
nv some of the men employed at tue
harm that the strikers have some ar
rangement whereby they can ma out
what is going on over the telephone be-
tween the barn aud the main Office, but
this could not be verified.
In this mornings REGISTER in anoth-
er column. will be- found an outspOken
proclamation from Mayor Caldwell In
which he clearly and concisely lays
down the law.
Manager jolly was seen late last
night regarding the situation. In sub
stance. he said: They have again
given US great Inconvenience in running
The cars today, and tits gross outrage.
We came here to fit up fine electric
railway, as good as any service In the
country. We have spent large sums in
getting il into its present condition,
though il IS not yet what we desire. We
are law-ablding citizens, and heavy tax
Davers and citizens OF Wheeling. The
road is ours. We would like TO run it.
The street car men are paid more here
than any place l know Of, more espec-
ially than in PlttSburg. II these fell
lows want TO leave US let them go. We
want 10 run the cars, and we only want
protection that we may do it. l like
Mayor Caldwel's policy more than pre-
yIous efforts, and we will run the cars
tomorrow as usual.

THAT CHARMING PAIR.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sidney Drew Delight

able Acting.

Mr.. and Mrs. Sidney Drew Delight n
Wheeling Audience With Their Inimit-
able Acting.
Mr.. and Mrs Sidney Drew made their
re.appearance last night at the Opera
House and duplicated the great success
they made on their last appearance
amongst us. At the end of that charm
ing curtain raiser SIN Honor Bound"
they received most enthusiastic cur
tain call.
1t was particularly catchy piece,
ana held the closest attention OF the
audience throughout, after which they
presented that side splitting comedy
THAT Girl from Mexico" which was
received with roars OF laughter. Their
performances are clean, bright and
charming in the extreme. The princi-
pals were almost perfect in their roles
while the support was excellent
throughout. That the play was en-
joyed was evidenced from the many
encores received.
Tonight they will present new and
novel comedy entitled THE Emergency
Man" which has made such a pro-
nounced success throughout the coun-
try. 1t is entirely different from any
thing seen on the stage Of to-day, and
while il is full of bright and funny sit
uatons and clean cut dialogues there
are many touches of pathos and home
like scenes which are entirely original
in construction. This will De the last
appearance in Wheeling this season OF
THE Drews" and their excellent COM
pany Of players. We sincerely hope TO
see packed house, for these great art
lists deserve it.
