A New. Oyster Disease.

Oyster dealers along the Virgin
Ia rivers are greatly exercised Ovtl
new disease which exists among
bIvalves.
The oysters have been attacked
by some malady which has, i'll
measure, rendered the catch in
various sections worthless. The
inner space in The shells is filed
with a reddish liquid which closely
T, sembles blood. The oysters
themselves show no sign of beng
affected by the liquid, and seem to
be healthy. Tue dealers who have
received such oysters have in some
cases, had them returned after
they had been sold.
Various opinions have been al.
vanced as to the cause Of the
disease. Some say the condition
IS due to the continued dry wealth.
er while others attribute 1t to
long continued tog.-Bllt. S IN.

Arrest Of Negro Suspects.

The murderous assault upon
Mrs. L. B. Ralley, made yesterday
morning by negro, has been the
topic Of conversation today.
This morning about eight noun
ted men gathered at the court
house and again started on the
search. They were determined to
catch the brute If possible.
By instructions of the Governor,
Captain Micajah Woods, Common
wealth's Attorney, has offered a
reward of 500 for the capture of
tho negro and his safe delivery at
the county Jail.
Mrs. Railey, the injured lady,
Is dong as well as could he ex.
pected, and no dangerous results
from her wounds are apprehended.
LATER.
Slice the above vas written a
negro named Hay wood Miller has
been lodged in jill on suspicion Of
being the guilty p,rty. He was
arrested by Mr.. Railey, the hus.
band of the inj ired lady, and Lee
Farsh by whom he was brought
here and lodged IN jill. lie has
uot yet been taken before Mrs.
RaIley for Identification, she being
too much shocked to undergo the
ordeal. 1t Is said that the man
who lives in Albemarle, bears an
unsayory reputation, being an old
jallbird, and could not give a good
account OF himself before AMI since
the assault.
A Telegram was received this
afternoon by the county autho RI

A MOTOR CARS AWFUL
PLUNGE.

Cleveland Ohio, Nov. 16.-A
heavy electric motor car contain
| ing between twenty and thirty
passengers went through the draw
on the central viaduct at 7:45
o'clock this evening and dropped
one hundred and one feet to the
river below. 1t is horror, The
| like of which has never occurred
here before. Too central yiaduct
is huge silt bridge three thou
sand feet long, made Of iron. 1t
connects the heights and thu pros
porous residence section in the
south side with the business centre
of the city. Directly over the
riverls drawbrldge ofpivot swing
ing pattern and this Is one hun
bred and one feet above the sur
face of the water. The south
side street railroad passes over the
bridge and on the other side OF the
draw there is a safety switch,
whish unless the conductor alights
and holds up a handle will send a
car into the gutter instead of let
ting 1t 60 on the draw. The first
reports of the disaster seem to
place the blame on the conductor.
These were to the eff9ct that the
ill.fated motor car, containing
between twenty and thirty passen'
gers approached the draw just as a
vessel was nearing it and the
bridge attendants had closed the
big iron gates and were preparing
to swing the draw. AS is the rule,
the car stopped and the conduc.
tor went forward to release the
switch IN case the way was clear.
lie must have been blinded by the
electric light, for an eye witness
declares that, although all the
gates were closed and the pivot
already IN motion, the conductor
raised the handle. The motOrmAn
applied the current and the car
shot forward and struck the gates
with crash. There was Olly a
moments pause and then the heavy
car ground its way through the
wreckage AMI plunged oyer the
brink into the black abyss amid
the screams and frantic struggles
OF the passengers, who, at the first
intlmatiOn of danger rushed for
the rear door. Tne Car struck the
water with a great splash and then
there was silence. SJOn men be-
gan to rush about, and police, pa
troll wagons lnI ambulances were
soon flying to the spot in response
to the telephone calls. L. an in.
credibly short space of time, the
work of rescue had begun. All
the other OccapInts of the car
With the exception of the few VIII 0
had managed ID lamp as it toppl' It
over, went down to certain dea b.
The car disappeared IRON sight
as soon as il struck the wafer and
every one of the passengers was
drowned. Withih FIVE inmates
after the accident The surface OF
the river revealed nothing OF the
terrible accidant that had lst
happened. The water had closed
over the car and Its passengers
and the work of resculng the
bodies in tue uncertain light was
slow indeed.

PATRICK FLYNN BEATEN.


WHEELING, w. Va, Dec 10.-The big
legal controversy in the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals here, Judge Ma
than Golf on the bench, in which Mrs.
Emily OConnor, of Brooklyn. sought to
stay the sale of the Long Island Traction
Companys properties which is scheduled
to take place on Thursday. was decided
this evening. The day was taken up in
arguments and the case fought bitterly
by the large array Of legal talent on either
side. In giving his decision, which was
a refusal to stay the sale, Judge Golf asked
what would be the situation should the
sale be stayed. No person representing the
petitioner had come forward and offered to
furnish the receiver with the $500 900 needed
every quarter In the event of no sale.
1t seemed to be going too far to allow the
petitioner, representing only l50 shares, TO
oppose the wish of owners OF 297. 900 shares.
blocking a sale and reorganization which
seems to be the only way In which the
Long Island company can recuperate. In
the absence of a charge by the petitioner
zation committee or Others, the judge or
dered that the sale proceed He could see
many reasons for disaster should the
sale be stayed. The petitioner, upon prov
ing fraud. could find a remedy elsewhere.
The question OF selling the various prop
attorneys for the petitioner, but the de-
cision of Judge Con- provides for the sale
Of all the properties together. So the at
tempt Of the rival Brooklyn street-car
magnate, Patrick Flynn, to secure sepa-
rate sale of the Brooklyn. Queens county
acquire. falls to the ground. The case at
tracted much attention.
