A deal which will be Of interest to
the sporting fraternity was consumma-
ted yesterday, when the necessary legal
papers were drawn up, transferring the
Metropolitan Athletic Club house in
Fulton to Oscar Gardner, the Omaha

to have been $1,000, and the former
stockholders in the M. A. c. drop cut
OF the business.
This deal means that Gardner will
remain in Wheeling permanently, and
will devote a portion of his time to
the conduct and management of the
club. Gardner will endeavOr to make

HOLY THURSDAY.
Interesting Services Conducted at St
Josephs Cathedral Yesterday.

cosepil yesterday.
With solemn and impressive SER
vices Holy Thursday was observed yes
terday at st. Josephs Cathedral. High
mass was celebrated at ten o'clock, and
the edifiee was crowded. The blessing
OF the oils did not take place, on ac-
count of the absence of bishop Dona-
hue, who is now in Rome. The process
sion to the repository was very i'm
pressive ceremony.
After the mass, the stripping of the
altar took place, and the candles were
extinguished. After that time, and I'M
til Easter morning, the church will be
draped in mourning and everything
will be in keeping with the mournful
incidents in the passion of Christ which
are being commemorated. In the even
ing the Office of the Tenebrae was per-
formed, and the Rev. William Walsh.

very interesting and instructive sermon
on the Eucharist

The Rev. DR.. j. L. Sooy's petition
against Sunday base ball games has
been completed and was yesterday
presented to the Register by DR.. Sooy
for publication. The signers south of
the creek were secured through the
efforts of the Rev. R. R. Bigger, pastor
of the Third Presbyterian Church. The
list included 446 Iames, but about
twenty-five of that number asked that
their names be not published. DR.. Sooy
dictated the following statement to
Register reporter, with the request
that it preface the petition:
This is protest on the part of the
county and no effort has been made to
secure the names of individuals sim
ply. A few such appear, however, in
connection with the business houses
and manufacturing plants. Thousands
could be obtained, but only business
houses were canvassed. Only fourteen
declined to sign the protest.
Nothing is said about base ball on
week days or base ball generally. 1t
is the Sunday games we declare
against. 1t is sometimes said that
Wheeling has the reputation in the
outside world of being very bad
place. From business standpoint, to
say nothing about morals, we do not
want the impression to go out that we
do not even object to Sunday base
ball.
Not only is this a protest, but it is
a fair and timely warning. 1t is not in
the nature of a mere threat. To avoid
all misunderstanding this Is given to
the managers or all others who may
be planning Sunday games within, or
contiguous to the city. The expert
ment of those who played Sunday
games on the Island in 1891 or there
abouts is proof of sufficient law in the
matter The efforts to suppress the
evil then were limited to those resid-
ing on the Island. Now the sentiment
is general throughout the city, as is
evidenced by the signatures to this
protest, and a committee of leading
business men has volunteered to see
that the law against Sunday games is
fully enforced"
Following is a copy Of the petition
and signatures attached thereto:
I'VE, the undersigned citizens Of the city
of Wheeling, and Of Ohio county, w. Va.
do hereby emphatically protest against
the Sunday games which the Interstate
Base Ball League propose playing on
grounds within or contiguous to Wheel
ing; Furthermore, we call upon all city,
county and State officials to enfore any
and all laws which touch upon the same,
and hereby give notice that we will make
every effort to bring to justice both the
players of said games. and the aiders or
abettorS of the same

The brief statement In yesterday
mornings Register to the effect thai
the list of signers of the petition would
be published this morning caused not
less than twenty-five signers to re-
quest that their names be erased. DR..
Sooy stated with reference to this re-
quest that he did not want the sigma
lures of any but those who stood
squarely upon the body of the petit
ton.
A number of signers stated that their
names were given because the request
was made by q minister, and sit was
the easiest way to get rid of the mat
ter" Others offered as an excuse that
business men generally were signing
it, and they simply followed suit.
There appears to be a misunderstand-
ing as to the impression DR.. Sooy left
upon those who signed the petition.
He stated yesterday that it was ex-
pressly understood that the petition
and the names of signers would be
published. On the other hand, not less
than thirty signers stated to a Regis
ter reporter that they had not the
faintest idea that the names would be
published and that nothing was said
On the subject to them.
Many who signed stated that they
expect to attend Sunday ball games if
any are played, and several added that
they made such statement to DR..
Sooy when he presented his petition.
The above names include all that were
attached to the petition except about
thirty who asked that their names be
stricken off the list.

MYSTERIOUS CRIME,
Assassination of a Methodist Minis
ter Who Had No Enemies.

DEXTER. NO.. Nov. 17-Much mystery
surrounds the death of Rev. Jesse Moore,
a Methodist minister. who was assassinated
yesterday at his home near Pyle, six miles
from Dexter. So far as known the deceased
minister had no enemies. Although three
sons slept in the same room with their
father. all the members of the family de-
clared they heard nothing of the shot. A
shotgun was found on a rack on the rear
porch with one barrel empty, showing that
it recently had been discharged. Before the
coroner Elijah. the oldest son, testified that
last week his father loaned the gun TO q
neighbor whom he (witness) did not know
Elijah says he believes that this unknown
neighbor last night returned with the gun,
killed his father and placed the weapon in
the rack. The jury returned verdict that
the minister came TO his death at the hands
OF unknown assassin. Prosecuting At
torney Farris and Sheriff Evans, however,
decided to arrest Elijah Moore, and he is
now in Jail at Bloomfield. The young man
vigorously protests his innocence

JUROR FRAAD EXCUSED.
Was Taken XII After Being sworn In
to Try IL. Ii. MOlineux.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE trial of Roland
B. Molineux was interrupted this afternoon
by the sudden illness of one OF the jurors,
Daniel Fraad. He was assisted from the
court. and physicians found that he was
suffering from acute indigestion. Recorder
Goff declared Mr.. Fraads seat in the jury
box vacant.
Two more Jurors were accepted this morn
ing, and they took their places in the jury
box. After examining twelve talesmen the
thirteenth, Daniel Fraad, manager of a WIN
dow-cleaning company, was accepted as the
third juror. His illness followed. and he was
excused. A few moments after Fraad' >
selection the fourth juror was accepted.
He is Herbert Gordon Thompson, an iron
manufacturer. His father was one of the
medical experts at the trial of Dr. Bu-
chanan The next juror accepted was Abra-
ham Altmeyer, retired real-estate dealer.
This is the fourth day of Molineux's trial,
and thus far more than one hundred tales
men have been examined. The net result
of to-day's trial, therefore, is the selection
Of two jurors, making four in all. Two of
the talesmen failed to comply with the
proper requirements, four We're opposed to
circumstantial evidence and eight to capital
punishment

D. L. MOODY BREAKS DOWN.
Great Evangelist Has to Cancel His
Kansas City Meetings.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. 1.-Dwight L.
Moody, the evangelist. who has been
preaching here to thousands nightly in.
Convention Hall, is broken in health and
is suffering from an affection of the heart.
His engagement here was cut short and
tonight he is en- route for his home at
Northfield, Mass, in care of DIR. Schauffler,
of this city, and G. NJ Vining, teller of the
Union National Bank 1t is admitted that
Mr.. Moody's condition is serious, though
when the evangelist was seen at his hotel
shortly before being taken to the station he
expressed the belief that his condition was
not serious. He stated that he was feeling
very weak and added: Il have had trouble
with my heart for good many years, but
1 never felt weak as l do now. There is
nothing alarming about my condition, be-
lieve."
Since last Sunday night the evangelist has
been preaching in Convention Hall, where
the audiences on several occasions have
numbered close to 15,000. Several times he
has spoken with difficulty and has been
compelled at times to sit up all night, as
he could not breathe while lying down. He
was too iii to go TO the hall this afternoon
and large audience which had gathered
was turned away. The reports as to the
seriousness of Mr.. Moody's condition are
conflicting. Several of his intimate friends
said tonight that while his condition was
serious, it was not critical These friends,
however, reluctantly admitted that they be-
lieved his career as a great public speaker
was nearing an end.

g.. NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE announcement
Of the election of g. 3. NJ. Harvey TO be
president OF the Harper & Bros. Publishing
Company and the implied failure Of the s.
S. Mcclure and Harper combination was a
complete surprise 10 other publishers to-
day. since it is only week since some OF
them had dealings with the two as one.
From the side of s. S. Mcclure the follow
ing statement was made to-day:
1T is a fact that Mr.. s. S. Mcclure and
his observation-disclosures. Phillips, Brady &
Doubleday-withdrew from Harper & Bros
about a week ago. 1t Is stated that the
agreement made last summer looking tow
ards an alliance was a conditional one. and
left many plans open for later arrangement.
Mr. Mcclure and his associates found 1t i'm
possible to adjust some OF the questions left
open by the preliminary arrangements and
withdrew a week ago. II is needless 10 say
that this action is the result OF mutual and
friendly conclusions OF both parties Ii Is
suggested in the papers this morning that
some OF the Messrs. Harper disapproved OF
the preliminary arrangements last summer.
