And thenceforward the din ~ battle
began to be heard loudly from this

to work 80 dOughtily with thcis bows

rain. Now might you see on this side
and on that full many n cavalier aud

the whole field seemed covered with
them. For fierce and furious was the
battle, and quarter there was uonc

But why should make n long story
of It? You must know that It was the
most pnrlOus and fierce and fearful
battle that has ever been fought In
our day. Nor have there ever been

engaged-for, taking both sides, there
were not fewer than 100000 hOrsennen,

numerous. The battle endured with

The Kaan was there on the hill,

considerations were entitled 10 weight.
Finally Mr.. Halter moved that the
Martins Ferry quarantine be raised az
10 o'clock this morning.
Upon this the city board held long
private conference, and as a result DR..
Jepson offered a compromise resolution
declaring the Martins Ferry quarantine
off at p. m, Sunday, but barring out
movements of household goods during
the month OF January.
This was adopted and the session
adjourned.
Bridgeport will lift its quarantine
against Martins Ferry at the same
hour as the Wheeling quarantine comes
off. 1t is hoped Bellaire will take the
same action.

EoUALIzAr1oN AND APPEALS.
The Business Transacted Before the City
Boar I'd Yesterday.


The City Board Of Equalization and
Appeals met yesterday morning VIA
lac City Collector, City Solicitor and
the C.V Assessors, TO sra. glten cut
lot CT assessment matters which had
gotten tangled Up. One Of the tn-ngs
discovered. which has made lot OF
trouble fer assessors, the Collector and
prc0erty owners, IS that three CT four
years ago, after the Board had made an
exhaustive report, It was not carried
over to the books CT the assessors, for
the guidance of the Collector through
the fault Of some unknown person. As
an example Of chis, the John smith
property, on the Island, was reduced, in
1892. from $4,000 TO $l4,SO0, yet no
correction was made on the books, and
this year the bin was made out for $21,-
900. There were quite number Of
similar cases. The Board Yesterday
Strengthened a lot Of these matters out,
and reQor, Will be sent to Council at
the next session. In all there were
e.ghty-two petitioners before the Board.
One osse excited some amusement IS
well as a sense Of injustice. A citizen
of the hillside section of the Eighth
ward pettioned for a reduction, his as
ssssment being 800 on his lot and $500
on MS house. Enquiry showed the
house contained but TWO rooms, was
made simply Of boards set up on end,
without s,udd.ng or plaster, and only
cost $3.50 Asked what adjoining prop
erty was assessed at, the petitioner said:
why, the man next to me is only as
sessed $3.50 on his house, and It IS
good house-.t has strips over the
cracks" The relief prayed for was
granted.

Visitors From ALI Over the
World at Moscow.
FErEs WILL LAST THREE WEEKS
The American Legation = Decorations

eign News.

MOSCOW, Russia, MAY 16.-This old
from all parts of the world, who have
come to witness the ceremonies attend
ing the coronation of the car and car
ina, which will extend over period of
three weeks, beginning, according to
program, with the arrival of their ma
jesties at the Petrovoski palace, outside
the city, on Monday, and ending with
their departure for St. Petersburg, June
9TH.
The streets are filled with people of all
nations and delegates from all parts of
the empire. The weather, up to the
present, has been little too cold to be
pleasant, but change is expected before
the fetes begin. A question regarding
the precedence of Prince Henry of Prus-
sia, representing Emperor William OF
Germany, and the Duke of Connaught,
representing Queen Victoria, has been
settled in favor of the latter.
The American legation is the center of
attraction for Americans here. The lat
ter are headed by General Med. McCook,
representing President Cleveland, and
the legation has been his headquarters.
The building is well situated, and affords
fine view of the boulevards. 1t is very
handsomely decorated inside.
The decorations of the Kremlin are
about completed. The old domes have
been freshly gilded, and the richly
tinted towers are most picturesque.
The public is freely admitted, and there
is constant procession of pilgrims to
Uspenski cathedral.
A decree has been promulgated pro-
hibiting, during the fetes, riding on
horseback or on bicycles in the streets,
or boating on the river. This step was
taken in view of the eimmense crowds of
people expected here.

M'KINLEY AND raE A. P. A.
The Advisory Board Decides That It
Was AIisinformed.

3
WASHINGTON, May 16.-Today's ses-
sion of the American Protective Associa-
ton supreme council was the most inter-
esting of the convention, because of the
action of the executive committee of the
advisory board in blacklisting Major Nc
Kinley as a presidential candidate was
to be reviewed. The report of the ad-
visory board upon the action of its COM
mittee was made to the council late in
the session.
It was technically an endorsement of
the executive com nlittee. It asserted in
substance that the executive committee
was warranted, in view of the evidence
presented, in placing the ban on Nc.
Kinley, but, in addition, it stated that
the full board has convinced the mem
'bers that the witnesses were unreliable,
and that their statements were not COR
rect, therefore the board concludes Nc
Kinley should be placed upon the came
footing. as far ae members of the A. P.
A. are concerned, with the other candi-
dates for presidential nominations, and
not be Disseminated against.
Appended to the report was a state-
ment in writing by Delegate Huddleson,
of California, who asserts that the COM
mittee, of which he was chairman, in
terviewed Mckinley at Canton, o., on
the 14th inst, and that the inter
view was satisfactory. Other members
of the committee are stated to have been
Delegate Vanfossen, Washington and S.
G. E. Zypt, state chairman of Kentucky.
