The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1896-10-06

Last nights meeting or the general
committee on the new city charter was
the most interesting yet held. The COM
mttcc'5 action on one or two points has
Increased the chances of the charters
final adoption fully 100 per cent For
instance, with the former provision call
Ing for the selection Of the chief OF po-
lice by the board OF public safely. the
charter would have been opposed by a
large number Of voters headed by the
influence OF the Ohio Valley Trades and
Labor Assembly. whose members OF tn.
charter committee withdrew at the last
meeting because the committee refused
at that time TO rcscind the action Of the
subcommittee. Now that the commit
tee has decided 10 have the people de-
eide by their vote which way they desire
10 have the chief OF police clccted-by
the board of public safety or by their
own direct tOtc--It Is probable that the
trades assembly will withdraw its oppO-
sition to the new chartcr and send its
delegates back TO the committee. At
least that Is the sentiment, OF members
Of the assembly with whom the lntcli-
gcnCcr man talked last night.
Again, the decision Ia have the civil
service clauses voted upon separately
from the charter. will probably take
away from the charter Itself powerful
opposition that would have opposed It
because 1t contained these clauses. AS
Colonel O'Br!en expressed II. civil SER
vice Is not In favor with the public gen
orally, and unless the people are edu-
Gated to reform in that direction, the
clauses mentioned would have been n
weak spot IN the charter that would
probably have defeated it, especially
when allied with the opposition to having
the election OF the chief OF police taken
from the people direct. With these two
elements OF weakness taken from the
charter proper 1t would appear that the
instrument has gaod chance OF being

THE BANCROFT AT FAYAL.
She Proves Herself Fast-AlIiance
at Funchnl.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. September S.-
A cablegram received at tho Navy De
partment this morning announced the ar
rival at Fayal, the Azores. OF the little
cruiser Bancroft yesterday. she having
been just ten days at sea from New
York. The officials OF the department
were highly gratifed at the excellent
passage made by the miniature cruiser,
the shortest distance between the two
points being 300 nautical miles. which
gives the Bancroft an average speed for
the voyage of fully 9 knots per hour.
II Is believed that she missed the severe
storms Of the early part OF the week.
which so seriously delayed Transatlantic
steamers on the more northerly routes.
After coaling at Horta, the port OF
Fayal, the Bancroft will probably re-
sumo her course TO Gibraltar, only about
1000 miles distant. and as for the shorter
distance her speed can be safely in
creased, her arrival there is looked for
next week. From Gibraltar she will at
once proceed TO Constantinople. where.
little doubt is felt. permission TO pass
the Dardanelles will be awaiting her.
The arrival OF the Alliance at Fun
chal is also recorded.
