Special to the Register.
WESTON, w. Va, December 10
AS the time for the next Hospital Board
meeting, which elects a new Superin-
tendent, is drawing near much specu-
lation is INDUCED in. DR. Huff, of
Philippi, was an out and out candidate
during the recent investigation of
Supt. Stathers. DR.. A H. Kunst, of
weston, has been spoken of. DR.. Flem-
ing Howell, Of Clarksburg, would, it
is said, accept the position. DR.. A.
Baker, from the Eastern Panhandle,
is urging his friends to help him and
doubtless there are others who would
like to succeed DR.. Stathers. The new
superintendent, who is to be elected
the first Tuesday in January, will en-
ter upon his duties in a much better
position than his predecessors. He will,
have at his command the new laundry,
which puts out $4,000 pieces washed
and ironed each week; the new cleo
trio light plant with an ample capacity
of lightning all the buildings and
the grounds. The heating capacity Of
the building is far better. The new
bakery will be ready to be occupied by
the first of the coming year. Two hos
pital wards, one male and one female,
have been furnished and arranged to
accommodate the sick patients who are
unable to sit up and there is at present
under consideration the ~advisability Of
establishing a training school for nurs-
es. Within the last IS months a Patho-
logical labatory has been opened for
the purpose of scientifically investigat-
ing the causes and results of the va
rious diseases with which the patients
are afflicted.

tinsburg Yesterday Evening.

MARTINSBURG, w. Va, December
1e.-"Windwald," the handsome coun
try residence of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. Nelson
Wisner, was the scene of a pretty we'd
ding at $50 O'Clock this evening, when
their daughter. Miss Mary Nelson Wis
ner, was united in marriage to Mr.. Ed
gar B. Stewart, of Morgantown. The
house was deliberately and beautifully
decorated with pine. holly and ported
plants, green and red being the prevail
ing colors, and was brilliantly ilfum-
mated throughout. Limited space re-
duced the guests to the relatives and
immediate friends of both families.
The ceremony was performed in the
south parlor. Misses Anna and Eliza
beth Wisner, sisters of the bride: Miss
Mary Galloway, of Baltimore; Miss
Mabel Want, of Parkers burg; Miss

NEW YORK, December 19.-There
was a complete revolution of sentiment
in Wall street to-day, and the latter
part of the session of the Stock Ex-
change witnessed something like a
panic among the bears, who were max
ing frantic efforts to secure stocks to
cover short contracts and bidding
prices upon themselves.
The professional traders took the
long side of the market and bid up
prices to take the market away from
the bears. Many operators who had
ruthlessly sacrificed their holdings in
the pandemonium of yesterday were
also eager buyers in the hope of re-
trieving losses. Besides these ele-
ments were a large contingent of bar
gain hunters, made up of people with
ready money looking for investment,
and who buy outright to hold.
Some such revulsion of feeling was
a natural consequence of the violent
fall of yesterday, which overran itself.
The issue of the speculative conflict
was by no means certain until about
midway of the session, and yesterdays
tide of disaster was not stemmed with
out titanic exertions on the part of the
most powerful financial interests in the
country acting in concert. Millions of
dollars in money were forthcoming
for the extension of credits to buyers of
securities. The clearing house banks
supplemented their yesterdays contri-
button of 500 0 900 by
Another of the Same Amount,
to be loaned at the market rate.
The announced determination of the
Secretary of the Treasury to increase
government deposits in depository
banks gave promise of relief from the
start and funds estimated at $1,000, 900
became available from this SQUIRE be-
fore the market closed. Under the in
fiuence of this abundance, yesterdays
panic rates for money were at no time
approached, but the demand for loans
made inroads on the supply with SEEM
ingly Unsuitable appetite. The rate
went to 25 per cent, but steadily de-
clined from that point under the offer
ings of successive millions until it was
forced down to six per cent and in the
late afternoon fell to 512, 5, 8, and at
last to 2 per cent. AS Don as the
stringency relaxed, it became manifest
that the pressure Of liquidation was re-
leased and the market fell into a calm
that seemed profound by contrast with
the constant hurry burly since yester-
day morning.
When the money rate fell t. an easy
basis prices began to rebound and some
sensational recoveries were shown, es-
pecially in the mercurial s~pecialties.
The advances were so large as to in
vite considerable profit taking by the
traders in the final dealings, but the
undertone continued strong until the
close, which showed substantial net
gains all through the list.

ond lieutenant of the Forty-first In

MONNETTE TURNED DOWN.
Ohio Supreme Court Refuses to En-
terrain His Allegations Against
the Standard.

terrain His Allegations Against
the Standard.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, December 49,
The Supreme Court handed down a de-
cision to-day dismissing the bribery
case Of Attorney General Monnett
against the Standard Oil Company.
The attorney general furnished infor-
nation to the effect that he was APP
preached by Charles Squire, of New
York, with a brfbe of $500, 900 if he
would permit the cases pending against
the Standard Oil Company to go by de-
fault. 1t was claimed that Mr.. Squire
was the representative Of F. B. Squire,
secretary of the Standard Oil Company,
Frank Haskell and Frank Rockefeller,
son of the president of the company.
The decision dismisses the case on
the ground that the information does
not connect the Standard Oil Company
with the attempt at bribery stated
therein.
The court holds that "the paper filed
in the clerks Office should not be pass
ed on for the reason that the charges
are not presented IN any recognized
form, requiring the action of this court,
and for the further reason that no
charge is made directly or indirectly
against the Standard Oil Company Of
attempting to bride the attorney gen
eral or any officer of this court in the
discharge of his duties in the proceed
ing now pending in this court, charging
that company with contempt in not
obeying the former order and judg-
ment of this court. An attempt to
bride the attorney general in any mat
ter not pending in this court is not
within its jurisdiction in the first in
lance Proceedings by indictment
would be the proper course in such
cases, that the party may have trial by
jury if demanded
