RoBBED OF 5000.
A Huntington OH Man Gets tho Worst of
1t Ht Martins Ferry.

A Warrington OH Man Gets tho Worst OF
1t at Martins Ferry.
An oil operator OF the Warrington
field, who gave his name as John g.
Smith, was assaulted and robbed OF
about 500 in Martins Ferry yesterday
afternoon. He appeared in town about
noon and was at the Brown Front
saloon on First street until about .
o'clock, whore he left his valise and
overcoat. He was then pretty well
tanked up. He aiterward visited one
or two other saloons, drinking at these
so that he had about all that he could
carry and walk in the middle Of the
pavement.
He disappeared later in the afternoon
and was not seen until two small boys
ran across him on the river bank in the
rear OF tho Northwood glass works,
with bis face, hands and portion OF his
clothing covered with blood. They be-
came frightened at the sight aud hurried
up to the police headquarters. where
one OF them said to Police Officers Fritz
Och and Martin Myers. "There is man
down at the glass works all cut up and
his face is hanging way down here"
placing his head on his breast. This
was about o'clock.
These two policemen hastened to the
scene and found tho man leaning up
against a post with long cash just
below his left eye and another cut on
the right side OF his nose and so drunk
that he could not give an account OF
himself and supposed he was in Be!laire.
He was taken to the lookup, cleaned up
and his wounds dressed. He was
searched, and in his pockets were found
lot Of valuable papers including s., 500
in notes and an insurance policy for a
large amount.
He had very little money on his per-
son and after SOLDERING up somewhat
told Mayor Westwood that he had been
robbed OF fully 500. his Smith &
Wesson revolver and his bunch OF keys,
but by whom or whore this was done
he was unable to say excepting that he
had the money when lie arrived in
Martins Ferry. He seemed to remem-
Der nothing about being assaulted.
The gashes looked as if he had been
struck by some blunt instrument. lie

To Build n New Bridge.

Yesterday the county commissioners
committee on roads and bridges went
out with Surveyor Bell to look at the
line between Ohio and Marshall county.
Mr.. Weiske built house there; aud
could not tell which county he was in.
The committee was met at the intersec-
ton oil the two counties on Big Wheel
ing creek by member Of the Marshall
county court. and it was decided that
tho two counties should unite in build
ing bridge Mt that point. where the
ford now is. This will be n decidedly
valuable improvement for Marshall
residents, and will be worth its cost to
Wheeling, as 1t will let residents up
the creek into tho city at all stages.
