The tender hearted and the weak
nerved must be cautiSus how they
read the account of the appearance
Of the glass manufacturers before
sho Ways and Means Committee
yesterday. Even those who are un-
used to the melting smood cannot
hear that piseous tale without the
Iiveliest emotion.
How cruel It h 10 Judge by out
ward seeming, Because these man
ufactnrers lived in fine houses, drove
about in carriages, did not solicit
aims in the public streets and spent
good deal of time in organizing
trusts, everybody fancied that they
were prosperous and hsppy. The
truth is just the reverse. They have
been starving slowly. They have
fought bravely TO keep their labor
ers employed, but they have paid
wages out ef their own flesh and
blood. Only in the last extremity
have they pocketed their pride and
taken up their stand as public beg
gars.
As they told this tale their voices
broke and their tears flowed. The
members ofthe committee blew their
noses violently and betrayed other
signs of sorrow and sympathy. 1t
is difficult to understand how the
spectators refrained from taking
up a collection for these abject crea-
lures.
They should not be compelled to
wait until next summer. They will
be dead before relief can come to
them in the regular way. Why not
give each one blank order on the
Treasury and let him fill it in to
suit himself?
This is the heartless way In which
the New York World speaks of its
helpless proteges. With a brazen eff.
frontery hitherto unknown In Amer.
lean politics it has espoused the
cause o. trusts, h,cnoplles and kin
drea sbominations and then when
the logical and inevitable results are
finally before us without power to cure
them it gives the American people
the insult of assuming that they
cannot see through such conduct
To the world as much as to all other
forces together is due in all likeli.
hood the present status Of things
That it knew what would be the
result if Mckinney was elected and
his high tariff idiocy endorsed can
not be doubted for a second. Then
what can be the estimation placed
upon such an organ after such a per
Torrance. Out with such hypocrites
and confidence men. The bunco
steerer has no place amongst honest
men.

A short time since Editor Pauley
of Waynesburg, was injured slight
ly in the foot, At first no attention
was paid to the matter but it grew
steadily worse and as gangrane soon
set in amputation soon became nee
essary. Mr.. Pauley underwent this
ordeal with truly Spartan stoicism
and is now very much better. He
is n yeaes old which makes the

been connected with the Waynsburg

friends hope to see him spared for
many more years of usefulness.

quest Held.

FAifMesx; W. W.; January To-
This morning at 1880 o'clock the
body of well dressed man was
found on the New York switch, near
the b. d 0. depot at this place. The
remains were those of a man 40 years
old, with sandy mustache, black
hair, 5 feet s or inches tall. He
was well fixed for the recent cold
weather, wearing light evercoat,
two dark undercoats diagonal
goods). three shirts, two pairs 81
pants, a gray cap, heavy shoes and a
warm pair Of gloves. When found he
was lying under some empty, coal
cars that we're pat In the switch
shortly after last midnight, and had
undoubtedly fallen or dragged him
self there since that time, as the car
inspector is sure he was not there
then.
He had evidently been run over as
he was badly cut about the head
his right leg broken and otherwise
mangled. The toes of his righttfoot
were off and he walked with
cane which was found near him,
Il was not Thought necessary to
hold an inquest.
In his pockets were found S26s
in money, a penknife, some scraps OF
bread, D spool Of thread, a needle,
several buttons, and cake of soap.
| A LETTER FOUND.
Besides these useful articles the
following unopened letter was found.

addressed to sB. d o. Agent, Clays.

Your correspondent Immediately
after seeing this letter telephoned to
Chief of Police W. b. Sine, of Man
nington, but he has no idea who the
man can be, or why he was com
ing there. 1t is seen that the man
had not presented the letter to the
agent and it is probable that several
days have elapsed since the letter
was written, and that the man has
taken the road. No trains came in
here from the West since 1902 last
night that he could have come in on.
He may have been here several days,
but no one remembers seeing him.
Everything is in the dark unless
Supt. Cox knows the man he so kind
ly befriended.
