Coal nus1NEss INCREASING.

The proposed reduction of the tariff
on coal from 20 to 40 cents ton does
not seem to have hurt the coal men on
the line of the Chesapeake and Ohio
very much. These operators and the
c. e o. officials were foremost in the
fight against any reduction in the tariff
rate on coal, but are now compelled TO
admit that 10 spite Of the assurance
that the coal tariff was to be materially
reduced their work has largely in
creased. Mr.. GEO. W. STEVENS, gen.
eral manager of the Chesapeake and
Ohio railroad, expressed himself to a
Cincinnati porter last Saturday as very
much gratifed with tbs outlook for
business along the line Of the C. & O.,
and especially in the coal regions. He
said:
The coal miners in the Harrington
division, especially, are working to
about full capacity, and getting out
about 500 cs.rs a day. The coal gotten
out was 90, 600 tons in July, as against
$4,000 tons in same month last year,
and / think the month OF August will
beat that. There has also been a de-
cided increase in the coke output"

Bow McCIeliand Won.

The Boston Post of Friday gives the
following account of FIVE mile race be-
tween Z. G. McClelland and Tim Me-
CarthY, at the annual picnic and games
OF the Boston Caledonia Club, Thurs
day
1.-The chief interest conferred in the
five-mile run, in which those great rivals,
Everett McClelland, the sparely-built
human grey hound from Plttsburg, and
Tim Mccarthy, the gallant and brawny
runner, met. This was the greatest OF
OF the day. For tbirty-nlne laps these
two men travelled at q very fast gait,
almost shoulder to shoulder, reeling of
each lap in about 40 seconds, or at the
rate of 5m, 25c. to the mile. They
never slowed from this awful pace for
once. Then, when the men entered In
the last lap of the race, the crowd,
which had become hoarse In their cries
OF encouragement to the two runners,
became imbued with enthusiasm and
exhorted, entreated, commanded, the
runners TO 90 in and win.
Then there was race and both men
gritted their teeth, put their heads
down, cIenehed their hands and at.
tempted to sprint. 1t was an awful
struggle. On the turn, about City
yards from the finish, MeOtelland
bounded past Mccarthy, and the latter,
with his eyes bullying and his breast
heavlng and struggling for breath, tried
TO regain the lost. But McClelland had
got nervy and inspirated and drew away
from the son of the Emerald Isle. win.
ming by eight yards.
ut was great race, and lost by Nc
Carthy by poor judgment in not carry
Ing McClelland at hotter pace and in
waiting for a sprint at the finish. There
was no official time, but the race on an
eight-lap track was made In about 2S
minutes"

.ELYINa ON MONEY.

Sc Of money, and It's ehicien'
cy, t63 Republicans Of West Virginia
have the utmost confidence. To them
money is the one great force in politics
which can accomplish ell things, but
without which nothing can be done. No
matter how sminenty kalifed a man
NAV be for any ONCE to heh he may
aspire, unless the party sen prospect
of getting at his money 10 need not
seek a nomination. The whole depen-
dence Of the party is placed in Doodle;
Ind on the free and unlimited use Of
lids are based the extraordinary
aims the Republicans are this year
baking. Particularly is this true in the
second and Third Congressional Districts
West Virginia, where Republicans

that IL HU1ING went into the race be
would take his money with him and that
made him popular at once. He was
looked upon by his party as the only
man they could hope TO elect, simply
because he was the only man who was
willing to contribute largely to the
campaign fund.
In the Second District so eminent an
authority as Hon. GEO. C. STURGIss,
who may be selected TO oppose the Hon.
WM. L. WILSON in the Congressional
race, comes out openly and says, in Of
