FATAL WRECK.
One Man Killed in a Collision of
Wheeling and Lake Erie Trains at
Warrenton.
Special to the Register.

Special to the Register
STBUBENVIULE, O., october 29.-Two
Wheeling & Lake Erie railroad engines
crashed together in Warrenton yards
during heavy fog this morning. The
Steubenville local engine No. IS was
shifting cars and coming out of a switch
when a main line ore train came along,
and the engines came together, wrecking
and derailing both engines and number
of cars. The main line engine was No. s..
Engineer Shoemaker, of the local,
jumped out of the window of the engine
cab and was considerably bruised. Bridge
Foreman, r. d. Crumley, of Massillon,
was standing on the edge of the gang
way of the local engine, and he was
caught between the cab and the tank
and received injuries from which he died
four hours later.
The escape of Daniel Chamberlain,
brakeman on the local, was miraculous.
When the trains bumped his leg was
caught, and when the slack went out of
the train after the bump, his leg was re-
leased and he fell between the cars and
was found between the trucks uninjured.
His leg was only squeezed slightly
The engineer and fireman of No. Sc
stuck to the engine and escaped injuries.

70 to NAVAL Rufeau Chiefs Tho Conditiou
Of spanish ships 6unk on santiago.
Washington, October 49, Naval Con-
structOr Hobsons this AFTERNOONS appear
ed before the Board Of Naval Bureau
Chiefs for the purpose of explaining
the condition of the Spanish ships
wrecked off the coast of Santiago and
the progress and prospects Of the eff
forts which are making for their re-
covery. 1t is said that over a million
dollars will be required to continue the
operations, and the Secretary OF the
Navy desires to know what chance
there is of success before authorizing
the expenditure of so large an amount
OF money.
Constructor Hobson was with the board
all the afternoon, and gave great deal
of detailed information as to the condi-
ton of the wrecks. He was of the opin-
ion that it was useless to continue the
wrecking company any longer and that
results did not warrant the expenditure
of $500 per day it is receiving. Construct
or Hobson said that in his opinion the
Colon and the Vizcaya could be raised
and brought to dry docks at New York
or Norfolk at cost OF $oooWV
for one and 100000 for the other, and
possibly both could be brought in for
100000 each. The government would, OF
course take the risk of expanding $4,000
on each of the vessels and in the end find
ing it was impossible to raise them. Mr..
Hobson wanted to be placed at the head
of a wrecking company which he should
organize, and be authorized to expend
from $500, coo to 900 on the two vessels.
He said the hull of the ViZcaya was in
tact. that he proposed to puiid coner-
dam around her and bring her to the
surface after making repairs necessary
to float her. Mr.. Hobson also gave the
bureau chiefs information concerning the
Reina Mercedes and the Merrimac. The
former could be easily raised, ne be-
Iieved, for it was apparent that she had
been only scuttled. The Merrimac cauid
be raised and he said it must be removed
from the mouth of the harbor in some
way.
The board will have another meeting
on Monday and possibly make some rec
concentrations to the secretary regarding
the wrecks off Santiago.

The Bett1nan Watson Case Up-A Locomo-

Parkersburg, w. Va, October %
In the United States Court to-day the
attorneys for Watson VS.. Bettman ct
al, presented an affidavit from M. A.
BettmaIl, complaining of the great con-
sumption OF time by the expert and
commissioners in the examination of
the books and accounts of the assigned
oil firm of Bettman, Watson & Bern
heimer, in which Bettman alleged that
at the present rate. of procedure five
years would be consumed in. making
the examination, and as the charges Of
the expert were $25 per day, beside the
n0thp~ery hpavy expenses, it would
entail great hardship upon the de-
PENDANT.
Attorneys for the other side stated
that the books and accounts were very
complicated and it was necessary to
examine an account and all vouchers
and checks for same in order to arrive
at proper understanding of the mat
ter and while there might be some de-
lay in the earlier stages of the exami-
nation it would not require the time
alleged. The court ordered that the
expert and commissioner report at
once to the court the cause Of the de-
lay, If any. The examination is being
conducted in New York.

collecting taxes. Our readers no
doubt have their tax bills: if not.
they can borrow their reighbors'
aud look over the same. These tax
bills show that the levy for county
purposes is 50 cents on each one
hundred dollars, and the road tax
is IS cents, which to this add the
number of days you have had to
work on the county roads. This is
quite stiff tax bill. The people
OF Sistersville, Garry Owen and this
district pay about three-ff,hs OF all
the taxes in the county. We are
not finding fault with the amount
OF the tax. What we want to cal!

fact that Q: I'll this eror1ocs tax

road leading through Garry Owen,
and all we know of the county
spending was a donation of $500 to
aid in uacadenizing the county
road leading TO the cemetery, a
road the county should have made
itself. In this connection let il be
understood that tbs nacadeuizing
OF the turnpike is paid by our peo-
pie and is paid by seperate levy
entirely different from the levy for
county purposes. Now we do not
wish to secede from the county.
neither do we object to paving our
fair share OF the taxes, but we do
think in all justice that we are en-
titled TO few considerations at

through Garry Owen is entitled to
little more attention than is given

not used often and are kept up for
the benefit Of only a few people.

for appropriations we expect TO

quests are fair and reasonable they
