travelling grocery representative at the

in the so-caued soliciting order bust

prominent retailer told me to-day that
some Of his customers did not come to
the store more than two or three times
a year, and many would only make a
monthly visit for the purpose Of settling

that a great many more orders come

NO TRACE As YET
OF Missing Howard r. WilkinsOn-A Dog
Which May Give Clue.

Up 10 last evening no definite trace OF
Mr.. Howard p. Wilkinson had been Sc
cured, but his family. relatives and
friends are still confident that ne has
simply LETT town while suffering from
temporary metal alteration and that he
VIII be heard from in due time. One or
two recent remarks 10 friends tend TO
confirm this view of the case, and II
Is likely that OYer-Wock had affected him
to some extent, mentally. 1t is posi-
bic, from careful study Of the case,
that he is not and has not been very
far from the city.
One incident which lends some color
to the belief that the missing man is
not far away came to light yesterday.
There is a small dog at the tobacco
works Office which was on very good
terms with Mr.. Wilkinson. The dog
disappeared Friday and was not again
seen until yesterday afternoon, when
the animal came to the works dead
tired, covered with mud and with his
hair sticking full of burrs. 1t was evil
dent that the dog had been in the cOun-
try, probably for the first time in his
life, and some folks at once took IN the
notion that the animal had followed Mr..
Wilkinson's trail, but had lost it, and
returned to the city.
The safe at the West Virginia To-
bacco Company office was opened yester-
day, and an examination of the books
commenced. but everything appears to
be correct The OIL company books and
papers are also IN correct shape.
As S usual here in Wheeling. Cos
sips have been busy, but as a rule the
reports Il circulation are totally without
foundation. Most of those who know
the missing man well are very much
DISPOSED TO give him the benefit Of all
doubts, at least for the present.
