BASE BALL MANAGER
And the Wise Man of the InteIligencer.
Their Stories Conflict.

Once there was a base ball manager.
| And there was Wise Man.
One was w. 3. Howell; the other a
sporting writer on the Intelligencer.
On the day the street car strike was
settled, Mr.. Howell told a Register re-
porter that he had intended transfer
ring the Wheeling team to another
city, adding that the first move in that
direction would be the playing of games
scheduled for Wheeling July LIST at
New Castle.
The Register man thought Mr.. How
ell knew what he was talking about,
and few days ago referred to the mat
ter in this paper.
But it happens that Mr.. Howell does
not know his own business. If he
really thought he intended TO transfer
the team it was only a pipe dream.
There was only one person who really
knew Mr.. HoweH's business better than
Mr.. Howell himself and that man was
the Wise Man of the Intelligencer.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Wise Man
set Mr.. Howell, and incidentlly the
Register man Alright by asserting that
there is absolutely no truth in the
statement" published in the Register.
OF course this settles it. MIR. Howell
is wrong, the Register is wrong, ana
the dear public has been imposed upon
again.

BOXING GAME DEAD
At Present and the metropolitan Has
Been Up Against 1t.

At Present and the metropolitan Has
Been Up Against 1t.
The announcement by the Metropol-
itan Club that no more contests will
take place under its auspices until
September, came none too soon. The
boxing game appears to be dead in
Wheeling just now, and such fiasco
as that of Moore and Fischer makes
an excellent casket for the corpse.
Both men are still in the city, and it
is understood that Moore wants money,
while the management does not ap-
pear to think he has earned anything.
The NJ. A. c. has certainly been up
against it in the last five contests, all
of which have been losing ventures, in
Guiding the Jim Jeffries exhibition.
The local lovers of the sport have been
rapidly acquiring a knowledge Of the
game, and to-day no dub exhibition
would draw bakers dozen to the club
house. But, under the present man
agement, all the boxers who have APP
peared have been men of ability and
reputation, and such material comes
high. The injury which man like
Moore works upon the club is meal
culable, however, and it is fortunate
for the club that no matches have been
made for the near future.
1t is understood that Fischer claims
he was not a party to Tuesday night S
fake, but played a waiting game be-
cause he realized that Moore was unfit
and must wear himself out. Those
who saw Fischer work in Bridgeport
will be slow to accept his statement in
the matter. His ability is unquestion-
ed. He displayed none of it in his
puerile exhibition Tuesday might.
Moore, like Abbott. should be placed
tenderly on the shelf among the other
"has- beenS" of the profession.
There is a difference in the tactics
of the boxers now, as compared with
few years ago. When the game was
young in Wheeling, the fighters ca
would first insert challenges in the
newspapers, and the sporting editors
were kept poor in buying blue pencils
with which to cut out the .cuss" words
in those documents. The next step
would be the posting of a forfeit, and
the sporting editors would jump from
poverty to aff1uence temporarily. Then
would come the meeting in the sport
ing EDITORS sanctum. This meeting
was always worked up strong, with a
lot of theatrical by-play. One bellig-
erent would put in his appearance in
advance of the other, with his back
ers'' and trainers" and other more or
less important attaches of the particu-
lar stable to which he belonged. Then
there would be a lot of impatient spec
ulation, with the accompaniment OF
ornamental profanity, as to whether

COLLECTOR y. IL. WHITE
Is to Look After Matters Connected With
the Internal Revenue Department.


Hon. A. B. White, Of i Parkersburg,
United States collector of internal rev.
enue for West Virginia. who arrived in
Wheeling Monday will return to his
home this afternoon, if he completes
the consideration of certain official
business connected with the depart
ment. A number of small matters re-
curing his investigation and ruling
have arisen in this section, and MIR.
Whites presence in the city makes it
more convenient for this interested par
ties than if he were in ParkersDurg.
None of the matters are very impoT-
tant.
Mr.. White stated yesterday that the
collections in West Virginia since the
imposition of war taxes have increased
remarkably. He would not be surpris-
ed if the collections next year would
aggregate a million and half. Rela-
tive to political matters Mr.. White is
rather reticent concerning his report
ed candidacy for the Republican gubeF-
material nomination. A very serious
complication has arisen through the
friendship of General Geo. w. Curtain
and MIR. White for each other. Each
announces that he viii withdraw in
the interest of the other, and they are
tossing bouquets in a very reckless
fashion. Ii may yet come to the poin.
of drawing straws TO ascertain which
one will make the race.

TIL BUSY BURGLAR
More Attempts Reported Yester-
day Morning.

Early yesterday morning the city of
Moundsville was visited again by burg
lars, but fortunately they were unsuc-
cessful. Three attempts were made to
enter private residences, but the thief
who is described as being heavy set
man wearing white hat, was fright
ened away. The parties where the
visits were made were John Crow, Dr.
Woodruff and John Rowland. At each
of the places the man was seen, but
before they could get out the fellow
made his escape. The police were mott
fed Immediately, but after making
trip about the city no trace of the rob-
Der could be found. Late in the even
ing, however, bicycle was stolen from
J. F. Burley, who has a business house
on Lafayette avenue. He had left his
wheel out in front, when either a short
man or tall boy jumped on it and got
away The wheel was a Globe make
and had a black frame Mr. Burley
does not know the number of it, how
ever. which is a point in favor of the
thief Mcundsville has had several
burglaries the past week. Only a few
days ago four other houses were rob-
bed and also an attempt made to enter
the Ohio River depot. So far the po-
lice have not been able to locate the
guilty parties, but many are OF the
opinion that the men are from the fish
ing camps along the river.

FL RNACE CHILLED.
An Accident Which May Prove
Expensive to the Wheeling Steel
& Iron Co.

Late last night it was reported that
the metal in the cupola at the Top mill
furnace had become chilled during the
day and that the plant had been COM
PEELED TO shut down. Sometimes when
this condition comes about it is neces-
sary TO allow the furnace to cool and
then remove the mass of Stag and metal
by blasting, but it was not learned last
night if circumstances in this instance
will demand such course. If it should
it will mean a loss of tens of thousands
OF dollars to the company in labor and
the profit on pig iron considering the
brisk status of the market There was
an accident to the bell of the furnace
week ago, resulting in a temporary
suspension, and it is possible that dur
ing this period the foundation for the
present condition was laid. The fur
mace closed down again yesterday al
teTnoon.

DIED IN TIE WELL.
An Etnaville Man Stricken With Hear
Trouble and Dies.

Trouble and Dies.
Yesterday morning about $50 o'clock
death came to Louis Christmer, a we'll
known resident Of Aetnaville, under
rather peculiar circumstances. Christ
mer was employed by Henry Koehnline,
the Bridgeport contractor, who has for
the past few days been sinking a
we'll on Middle Sister Island, four miles
above Martins Ferry. The well had
been sunk to a depth of &c feet and at
the hour stated Christmer was let down
on a ro1e to resume work. Upon
reaching the bottom he gave a little
shout like one experiencing sudden
chill, and the men at the top asked him
if it was cold. Upon receiving no an
swer Robert Speers was sent down and
found Christmer crouched upon the bot
tom. He was unable to attach the rope
to Christmer and was hoisted to the
surface and a second man was lowered.
This attempt was successful and Christ
mer was brought to the top of the hole.
His pulse was then very feeble and
death ensued shortly and before the ar
rival of medical aid. which had been
summoned Immediately. The remains
were taken to Mobiles undertaking es-
adjustment in Martins Ferry and pre-
pared for burial. and later were con-
veyed to the late home of deceased in
Aetnaville
1t appears deceased was subject to
heart disease, and Mr. Koehnline. as
we'll as the friends. believe death re-
suited from that cause, as the other
workmen felt no indications of foul air
when they descended after the stricken
man. Under the circumstances no
blame attaches to any one for the mans
death.

Now it is different. The modern
school OF boxers has adopted new tao
tics. 1t is no longer considered import
ant to impress the sporting editor with
the idea that they are mortal enemies,
and will be satisfied with nothing less
than rich, red blood. Instead, they act
ually chum together. They come in
pairs, and show the greatest consider
alton for one another, while Fitz, and
Jeffries, and the Sailor. and the other
big fellows have monopoly ON the old
style. The modern plan has its advan-
tages, and not the least of these is the
opportunities which are afforded for

purse. Moore. Abbott. Fischer ct al,
