The Remains of Drowned Man Found at
Sistersville Sunday Afternoon.
Special to the Register
Sistersville, May 6.-While two men
were fishing on what is called Tow
head Island, about a mile above here,
Sunday, they noticed an object lying
among some bushes nearby, and upon
investigation it was found TO be the
badly decomposed remains of a man
who had evidently been drowned and
laid in the water for some consider
able time The men who discovered
the body brought it to this place, and
Coroner w. II. Gillespy was notified,
but decided that it was unnecessary TO
hold an inquest, as the body was de-
composed beyond all recognition. The
man was thirty years of age, had on a
check shirt and heavy underwear, a
common, ordinary pair of jeans panta-
looms, and pair of congress shoes not
much worn. There was nothing in his
pockets or on his person to identify
him. There was in both pockets some
coal, and his dress was similar to ones
worn by steamboat firemen. 1t was
concluded by the crowd who saw him
that he was the fireman that was
drowned off the steamer H. X. Bedford
last winter.

Pocahontas, Va, May 6.-There are
no miners working to-day in the mines
here, and while Monday is regarded as
an off day, it is believed the union men
have won the miners here and that tho
strikers have the field. The Hungar-
ians have refused to work, and only a
very few men went up to report for
duty. They were what are known as
day men, who lay tracks and work at
the machines. The town was quiet
last night and good order prevails, the
miners remaining in and at their
homes, but they are indignant at the
attack made last evening on one Of
their speakers, Mr.. WarburtOn, who
was knocked down by Mr.. Hall, on thet
depot platform and seriously hurt. The
meeting to-day at 10 o'clock was
largely attended. The sympathies Of
this section are with the miners. The
operators, it is believed, will suspend
any attempt to run the mines.
Last night about 10 o'clock two pO-
licemen. Baldwin and Mike Rupert,
went to the home of Joe Farkars, and
calling him out, asked him if he in
tended to work. He said he would not
work unles others worked. He was
then told that he must work, and he re-
sponded that he would not, whereupon
he was struck. At this, seven men in
sympathy with the police, rushed in,
and Farkars was arrested and is now In
Jail.
Another man, negro, was struck at
the Browning mines. and there are
warrants out for some of the miners OF
West Virginia who are held for inter
fering and keeping other men from
working. Trouble is feared. The min
ers think the police want trouble and
are holding back. The men are quiet
The operators report a light force at
work. If arrests continue there is no
telling what will come, as the miners
are indignant.
