The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad,
which is now owned and controlled
by j. Pierpoint Morgan and his
syndicate Of Wall Street capitalists,
in addition to the stock of the
company owned in England. is
fighting Bryan's election in every
way possible, and bringing all the
pressure it can on its employees to
compel them to vote for the gold
standard. "Sound Money" clubs
are organized among the employees
and wholesale amount of gold bug
literature fired into them, and they
are given to understand that if they
want to hold their jobs they must
not vote for Bryan.

GEN. WATTS IN KrNewooD.

The speaking in the Court House
here Monday was the best and most
successful meeting held here yet
this campaign. 1t was the first
appearance for Gen. Watts in tins
county and our people were de-
lighted with his address and many
favorable comments were heard on
all sides, even among the Repub-
leans. The attendance from the
country at large was not us good as
IL should have been, but still the
Court room was crowded, many
ladies being present and nearly
half the crowd being Republicans.
The speakers stand was beautifully
adorned with lovely flowers and
decorated with Gags, and a splen-
did portrait OF Bryan amid the
scenic beauty. The meeting was
called to order by the Chairman Of
the Democratic Committee who
announced that Hon. /. G.. Ralph.
snyder had been selected TO preside.
The latter upon taking the chair
made an eloquent and forcible ad.
dress, speaking for half hour on
the issues OF good government and
introducing Gen. q. q. Watts in "a
happy manner. The General spoke
for over an hour amid the closest
attention and receiving frequent
and hearty applause. His address
was so logical and convincing and
free from any mud-slingiug or
abuse, that the Republicans even
admitted its force and effect. AT
It's close many crowded around to
shake his hand and wish him God.
speed and good luck. Col. Joe
Chiffon was here also and was adj
vertised to speak, but was sick
when he arrived in the morning
and at once went to bed and was
unable to appear. However by the
next morning he was better aud
left with Mr.. Ralphsnyder for Fair.
mont to ill an appointment there.
In the mean time Gen. Watts had
become seriously i'll and confined to
his bed, so that physician had to
be called in. He was unable to
proceed with his engagements till
yesterday, when he started on, nj.
though by no means we'll enough to
campaign in realty. DR.. Pratt
was in attendance and succeeded
in giving him relief. The engage
ment at Morgantowu for Tuesday
was cancelled on account of the
Emancipation celebration there on
that day. as the committee did not
want to intefere with the exercises
of the colored folks.

While in Grafton last week we
learned that Hon. John II. Nc
Graw, member of the National
Democratic Committee for this
State, had made a special trip to
Baltimore to try and arrange for "a
special train for Bryan through this
State, and offered to put up 81 900
to pay for it, but the officials re-
fused to allow the train at any
price, and the Committee had to
arrange his meetings so that he
could come through on regular
trains, which the railroad could not
help. All the same, he will have
the largest gatherings that ever as
sembled in this State for any pur-
pose whatever.

SURE-TO-WIN POKER HINTS.

Suggestions for Success, WITCH Is Sura
to Follow if the Player Survives.
The whole object of poker is to save
your own money and to secure some one
elses. Win cash and lose on credit is
a good general rule, says the New York
World.
Therefore, buy only one-half as
many chips as you think you will need.
When they are gone, owe!
Ante only when you are reminded of
it. You'll make a chip or two in an
evening by following this advice.
If any one has TO owe for chips make
sure that you're the first one 20 do so.
Then bet against the ready-money play
ers.
Get look at the bottom card if you
can. 1t may altar your draw materially.
Always salt away checks in your
pockets. No one then can tell how you
stand and you can be shy" from time
TO time.
Watch the discards carefully but use
them sparingly. Excess in these lux
uries may beget trouble.
Sell your chips while you have plenty
of them but only for cash.
If there is kitty take few extra
cigars. If you don't smoke yourself
there are others"
At the close of the game halve your
winnings and multiply your losses in
discussing how YOU stand. All good
players do this.
Never pay any hold-over bets at the
beginning of a new game. Mercenary
men have been known to accept money
so offered and refuse to play.
When luck is against you call for
new pack, grumble and claim more
trouble than ever mortal had before.
When you are winning look at your
watch all the time with the remark:

Enter Into an Agreement Regarding
Prices-An Producers but Two Repre-
sented,
Pittsbyrg, Pa, April 16.-The largest
gathering OF tin plate manufacturers
ever held in Pittsburg was in session
here to-day considering plans to over
come the advance in the price of tin
plate bars. The meeting convened at
II o'clock this morning and included
many producers not members OF the
association.
Two plans were submitted for con-
sideration. Ore was TO establish
central selling agency and uniform
prices, and the osAer to form combin-
alton somewhat similar TO the steel
manufacturers pool, each producer to
have an allotment equal to the capacity
OF the plant.
Some doubts were expressed as to
the feasibility of the latter plan, as the
trust laws in some States may inter
fere with the arrangement. Sugges-
tons were also made as to the advisa-
5ility OF building basic open hearth
plants to make steel for their own use.
The meeting adjourned this evening
without having formed pool, but an
organization was effected and an agree
ment entered into by which the price Of
l. C. common, at New York, will be reg
ulated by the price of foreign plate.
This will, at present, advance the price
10 $3.50.
Every tin plate firm in the country,
except two, was represented at to-days
meeting. Another meeting will be held
next month.
