The attendance at the Moundsville
Prohibition Assembly yesterday was
very satisfactory, and interesting ex-

In the morning Miss Lizzie Boyd, of
wheeling. conducted the bible reading,
which was followed by talk by Mrs.

was also present and gave a short ad-

In the afternoon after the quartette

which was enjoyed bE all.
The speaker for the afternoon was W.
T. Bundlck. OF Virginia. This was his
second address, and 1t was the best
speech heard on the grounds for many
a day. Mr.. BundIck is a reformed
drunkard and he can preach prohibition
in the way that pleases everybody. To-
hight he intends giving his past exper-

DAY MEN STRIKE

At RivsEalds Plate aIllI for Inersass Of

AIIIl Being Ordered Shut Down by Com.
pRny-Tho Tonnage men aot on strike.
The day men employed at the River
sidep late mill struck yesterday morn
Ing because their demands for an In
crease OF wages were not granted by
the company. Their action Indirectly
resulted in the closing down Of the steel
mill, thus throwing of In all about 800
men. The strikers number about 40,
and the new scale Of wages asked by
them and their various conferences with
the company have been previously
published In the Intelllgencer.
As stated before. the tonnage men at
the mill are not asking for an increase
OF wages; 1t Is the men who work by
the day, including furnace helpers, ETC.,
none OF whom make over 50 day at
the present, the laborers getting $1.25.
They have held several meetings, and
Sunday afternoon decided to strike.
Since he management ordered the
steel mill closed yesterday, instead Of
It resuming as scheduled, 1t would ap-
pear that the company intends to make
repairs to the plant during Its Idleness,
consequently the strike may be pro-
longed indefinitely. Rush OF orders
this summer prophesisd a busy run In
stead Of the usual stop at this time Of
year, but the plate mills strike has
changed matters. The strikers claim
that business justhes a restoration OF
the wages paid them a few years ago,
and they are confident Of winning, and
declare their determination Of sticking

The Congressional convention of the
First district Democrats will be held
Wednesday at Weston. and all concern
ed are at sea astowhom the party's NOM
inee will be, The most likely Splinter
IN the race appears to be ]. v. Blair. Of
DoddrIdge county.
Among those mentioned in connection
with the nomination are: j. v. Blair, of
Doddrldge county; Editor Melville G.

Scott Withers, of Chenille; ]. p. Fow-
Ter, and DR.. W. P. Newton, OF Sutton,
w. W. Brannon, Louis Bennett and DR..
II. s. Holt, OF Weston; John o. Pendle-
ton and Col. w. w. Arnett, OF Wheeling
There are no RVowed candidates,
though nearly all OF those suggested
will accept the nomination. Lewis coun-
! ty has instructed for DIR. NJ. S. Holt, who
until two years ago was a Republican,
but Topped on the money question. Here
IN Wheeling there Is a sentiment which
favurs a man from another part Of
the district this time, although Col. Ar
nett or Mr. Pendleton may be voted
for on the first ballot by the Ohio del
egates II is said that Blair Is well
supplied with this worlds goods, con-
sequently there will be strong leaning
towards his "barl."
However, Mr.. Pendleton settles all
controversy as 10 his name being used,

he, but this !s a difficult matter for
while all the men suggested will ac-

When the Wheeling Ice Exchange
advanced the price Of Ice on July l. to
twenty-five cents per hundred pounds
to snloouists. butchers. etc. there was
considerable growing among the retail
trade, and with half the month gone
this growi has increased to signih-
cant rumble, which portends the COM
ing storm of war upon the ice dealers.
The leaders Of the opposing forces are
the butchers, who are now quietly So
letting the aid OF the saloon men.
Last week the butchers held a meet
ing to consider the situation. and to
adopt plans OF warfare. 1t was pro-
posed to declare war direct and forth
with on the Ice Exchange. but only If
teen butchers were present, not suffi-
Client number to justify an independent
stand. Since this meeting the saloon
men have been felt, and considerable
progress has been reported. A saloon
keeper and butcher from each ward
form a, committee which IS now nego-
tlatIng with foreign dealers TO supply
the Wheeling retail trade.
The Knickerbocker Ice Company, OF
Cleveland, has entered the field, and
proposes to furnish ice at Sow rates,
providing its customers will sign an
agreement, good for two years, not to
buy from any other company; the
KnIckerboCker taking this precautlon in
the event that the Wheeling whole
salers may come down to bed rock
prices when they see the Cleveland con-
In the market. The Wheeling
butchers and saloon keepers are asked
10 file bond OF 800 to ensure their
sticking b. the agreement.
The butchers have also discussed the
question OF buying ice by the carload,
and having wagons TO distribute II to
those in the scheme. The Steubenville
ice company Is also considered fac
tor TO get cheaper fee. Should the
saloon men decile to 90 hand in hand
with the knights OF the cleaver, they
will probably put up a successful fight;
but so many saloon keepers have as
their bondsmen and hackers, parties
who are Interested In the breweries and
ice companies. 1t will be somewhat dlf-
Acult to get them all In line.
But there is strong undercu-rent Of
feeling In favor OF the cooperative fee
scheme by saloon keepers, who consid-
er Increased ice rates, and a dollar dd-
dltional tax on every barrel OF beer, as
more than the average man can stand,
so that in order TO read their margins
clear between the two evils they may
choose the lRtter-lce- and combine to
bring It down TO last years rateS. The
matter. at present, however, Is oeing
conducted on the stu hunt order.

AIay hnvs Another StrIho.

This summer may witness another
coal miners strike in Ohio. Pennsylva-
MIA, and possibly Indiana, The miners
are agitating for the unfolding OF the
agreement the operators signed at the
Chicago conference, and the operators
are claiming that the failure to hold
up to their agreement Is caused by West
Virginia operators having captured
their markets last year, when the great
coal strike was in progress. Whether
this claim be true IN every particular,
1t is true nevertheless. that the West
Virginia coal is cutting wide swath
owing to the last strike, and there Is
no likelihood Of strike among the
miners Of this stnte this year.
