AS Much Was Done Yesterday as the
Weather Would Admit OF.
Yesterday was another day of hard
work in the flooded district OF the
city, but despite the damp and rainy
weather very considerable progress
was made in the direction of straight
ening things up. Many goods removed
from wholesale houses still remained
piled on the sidewalks in various por-
lions of the Second and Third wards,
and it will be a day or two longer be-
fore they have been returned to their
proper and accuston-e ed places.
During yesterday the Board of Pub
lie Works had large force Of men at
work clearing drift and rubbish from
Island streets. and by nightfall great
deal had been accomplished in this
direction, an instance being afforded
in the accumulation on South Front
street, below Ohio, which had almost
disappeared. The work will be con-
tinued to-day
The water had completely left the
Island yesterday, and in many local
tiles the full effects of the freshet stood
revealed. Little could be done in the
direction of cleaning up out Of doors,
because of the wet and threatening
weather, but indoors houses were set
to rights in large measure, and in a
few days residences will have assum-
ed their usual aspect. Outdoor work
yesterday was mainly confined to re-
placing fences, board walks, and such
like work.
A few days of bright and dry wealth
err, with warm sun, will greatly aid
the work of attaining anti-ilood condi-
tons, and that these favorable coEdi-
tions may speedily be reached is
greatly to be hoped for.

estimated receipts and estimated ex-

ion for increases in the police or fire
departments. The problem was thus
an interesting one, and resulting dis
cussion naturally scattered" a good

porarily, at 1923 ,000, or $1,000 more
than Mr. Watkins estimated. The 10
cent levy receipts were raised from
$22 600, estimated by the clerk to $23-
600, which made another $1,000, and
licenses were swelled from 1000, as
estimated, to $4,000 This put the
committee $11, 900 to the good. Rents
from city property were marked up
from $500 to $500. or an increase of
800, and a total increase of $11, 100.

ton by the Beaumont Glass Co.,
of Martins Ferry.

The Beaumont Glass Company, of
Martins Ferry, will erect a structure
of their own in the near future. The
Company for several years have been
operating in a portion of the old
Northwood building on First street.
The building has been in a dilapidated
condition for some time and the recent
high water about destroyed the rear
portion of it. This, and the fact that
the firms business is increasing so
rapidly that they find it impossible to
keep up with their orders without
working night and day, Sunday in
Guided has caused the company to
take action in what may be termed a
long-felt want, which must be sup
piled
Just where the new structure will
be erected has not been decided on
as yet. The directors have been look
ing about the past couple weeks and
have secured an option upon lot own
ed by the West Virginia Glass Com
pany, also upon two or three lots on
Second street. The main object in Sc
lecting site is to have it near the
river as we'll as the railroad as they
make some large shipments by boat.
The intentions of the company are
to erect a substantial one-story build
ing 10Gx65 feet, of corrugated iron. In
the rear part of the building will be
the kiln rooms, and partitioned off
from these will be the washing, dec
Grating and packing rooms.
The capacity of this enterprising es-
Enlistment will be nearly doubled
when they get into their new build
ing. for instead of having but eleven
kilns as they now have, there will be
twenty, thus giving employment to
about double the number of people,
and turning out proportionately
larger amount of ware,
Bids for the erection OF the new
structure have not been let yet. but
will be in a short time. 1t will be
equipped throughout with the best OF
improved machinery needed in their
business.
IJntjl the erection of the structure
the company will continue to operate
the best they can under the difficulties
which they are placed in their present
location

from Department Commander G. A..

need the veterans he could put into
the field could be used to man stations
where federal troops are now located
that all regulars might be free for use

would obviate the necessity Of hold
ing regulars at such places as Buffalo,

AS TO RINGING FIRE BELLS.

The IntelIigencer and Fire Chief
Klieves have arranged for changing
of the fire alarm bells at very unsea-
sonable hour, in case war is declared by
either the United States or Spain. This
well-meaning but perhaps foolish bit of
enterprise has provoked a protest
which appears elsewhere in this issue.
Our correspondent might have added
that there are many nervous and deli
cate women, and men, too, in the com
munity, who find it quite enough to
endure the ringing Of the fire alarm of
nights when "a fire has been discovered,
without using it for other purposes.
But from the tone Of the cablegrams
and dispatches from Madrid and Wash
ington the past twenty-four hours,
there is hope that the queer enterprise
of our neighbor will not be called into
play.

bad landslides at various points, and
forces of workmen are clearing the
tracks, and placing them in condition
for a resumption of traffic at the earli-

it may be almost week before there
is a resumption of traffic on the road.
