Il POLICE NEED.
Chief Clemans Sees the Necessity for u
Female Detective.

Chief Clemans Sees the Necessity for u
Female Detective.
In discussing some police matters,
yesterday, Chief Clemans said:
One OF the needs of this depart
ment is female who would be COM
petent to do detective work. There
are frequent occasions where the aid OF
a competent woman would be of the
greatest value. In fact, have such a
case on hands now. A man cannot
get at the facts necessary to make ar
rests, but smart woman could do it,
and in addition to arresting parties I
am convinced are guilty, would at
the same time protect our own citizens
from loss. We are doing the best we
can, but if the regular officers fail it
will be because it is such a case as a
man connot handle to advantage. A
woman can often find out many things
which are beyond the reach of a man,
however capable he may be- and it is
time, in the interests Of justice and for
the protection of our citizens, that
some attention was paid to this i'm
portant matter. | hate to see a thing
gong on which / can't ger at, simply
because of lack of the proper facilities.
Wheeling is getting to be an important
point for crooked people, and yet we
are practically helpless. We can't ar
rest or hold people on suspicion, as
they do in other cities, and the crooks
are onto the fact. Our detective sys-
tenn is a farce, we have no funds for
emergencies-not even for telegraph
ing or telephoning, and are handicap
ped in every way. There are crooked
people in town right now whom we
can simply watch. They ought to be
arrested and locked up, but we can't
DO 1t, and they know it. It is time
some radical change was made in the
direction Of police authority"

NATIONAL ESCAMPNENT.
Veterans Make Arrangements to Go to
Philadelphia Next Sunday

Philadelphia Next Sunday.
Last evening Holiday post No. Il,
q. A. R., met to make final arrange
ments for the trip to the national en-
campment at Philadelphia. There was
good deal of talk about the $11 rate,
which is the best offered by the rail-
roads, and some sharp criticism was
INDUCED in. The veterans can see no
reason why a SO rate can be made to
Atlantic City, which is sixty miles fur
Their east than Philadelphia. and only a
$11 rate can be given the soldiers. The
crowds that will be taken to the en-
campment city, they say, will also be
much larger than those taken to the
Jersey coast. They still hope. however.
to have this rate modified before the
day arrives, but if it is not they hold
the attendance from this locality will
be greatly reduced. The Baltimore &
Ohio was selected as the official route
and the train leaving Wheeling at 10 so
o'clock next Sunday morning will be
the official train. This will get the
veterans into Philadelphia early Mon
day morning.

Jas. Brennan, foreman Of the caulk-
ing gang who were engaged in making
a pipe line connection at Triadelphia,
yesterday afternoon thoughtlessly
struck a match to light a cigar. He
was leaning over the pipe at the time
and the escaping gas ignited. An ex-
plosion followed. Brennan was seri-
ously burned, and was brought to the
North Wheeling hospital for treat
ment.
The accident occurred about O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. The Natural
Gas Company OF West Virginia was
laying ten-inch pipe line from its
field in Greene county, Pa. Yesterday
the connection was made at the point
where the Middle Wishing creek in
tersects the pike at TrIadelphia. The
new line was to connect with the
twelve-inch main which supplies Gus
toners of the company in Wheeling.
Brennan was in charge of force OF
men and was handed cigar just as he
was about to make the connection. He
thoughtlessly took a match from his
pocket and struck it. In an instant
the escaping gas was ignited and there
was an explosion. When Brennan was
picked up it was found that the cloth
ing was burned from the upper part OF
his body and his flesh badly burned.
He suffered intense pain. A convey
ance was at once secured and he was
brought to this city. where his injur-
les were dressed. They are not nee
essarily serious, but will incapacitate
him from work for some time.
Another man who was standing near
Brennan when the explosion occurred
was also burned, but not so seriously.
