The danger of a food is about ar
rested through the cold snap that hap
pened along so luckily. At midnight
the marks on the wharf showed about
20 feet of water in the channel, having
raised about 4 feet during the day.
There is possibility of or feet
more to come on this rise. The water
was rising slowly at Davis Island yes
terday afternoon, and at 4 o'clock had
reached the 1853 foot mark. The ice
from the Allegheny reached this point
yesterday morning about IL o'clock,
and continued to pass all day. 1t is
not very heavy, but it is forming
rapidly and soon will be if the cold
weather continues. 1t is not heavy
enough to interfere with navigation,
except perhaps coal craft. There will
not be much of it, as it is the result
of the gorge at Parker's letting go.

ADVANCE IN TIN.

1t became known yesterday that at a
secret meeting of the management of
the recently organized tin plate trust
it was decided to advance prices ten
per cent. all around to the trade. This
will be interesting news to the trade.
1t was also made known yesterday
that notwithstanding all rumors and
reports to the contrary. the Whitaker
tin plant has not yet gone into the COM
bine, and may not do so. The Can
nonsburg, Pa, plant is also holding out,
and these matters. coupled with the
news from Pittsburg that capitalists
of that city have agreed to erect an in
dependent plant Of large capacity at
Sharon, Pa, to be completed by June
LIST, next, makes it appear that the
trust may have an interesting time
ahead.

WALKER wHITESIDE,
Young Tragedian, Talks on Matters Per-
tanning to the Stage.

Mr. and Mrs Walker Whiteside and the
entire Whitesde company arrived in this
city last night, and will be seen here to-
morrow in Mr. Whitesde's new romantic
comedy drama, ''The Red Cockade" On
his former visits to Wheeling Mr.. White
side has been seen in Shakespearean and
classic plays only In conversation with a
representative of the Register last night
he denied his reported intention of aban-
doning the tragic field altogether for the
romantic He believes it to be an actors
duty to the public, as well as to himself,
to produce new plays occasionally. 1t
gives him a better knowledge of his art,
broadens his methods and is an encour-
agement to those who write for the stage.
After number of years in the Shakes
pearean and classic plays said Mr.
Whiteside. II produced a new play called
The Cousin of the King This was in
Chicago. The play was in two acts, and
in consequence I was compelled to add an
other play to fill out an evenings bill.
My next new production was a complete
dramatization of Bulwers fascinating
novel. Eugene Aram, which was first
presented in New Orleans. Last season
I appeared in a dramatization of Stanley
Weyman's Man in Black a powerful psy-
Geological drama. 1t was a brilliant sue
cess. Last summer I was offered a trans
lation of the great French playwright,
NJ Pousauds, Lion Amaux,' which l at
once accepted. We produced it under the
title of The Red Cockade' I am greatly
pleased with it's success and will in all
probability keep it in my repertoire for
many seasons"
How does this season compare with
last?"
THE country to me seems to be far
more prosperous than I have found it in
the past four years, and have been from
New York city as far north as Duluth"

was the Concert Given by the Womans
Musical Club. Yesterday Afternoon.
The concert given by the active mem
DerS OF the Woman'S Musical Club, at
A. y. U. w. Temple, yesterday after
noon, attracted the largest audience
OF the present season, and demonstra-
ted that the organization has increased
its interest for the membership and
that IT'S present is all that could be de-
sired and its future a bright one. The
chorus was excellent and performed it's
allotted work with precision and enthu-
siasm, while the solo numbers, both
vocal and instrumental, merit the
greatest praise. Miss Flora Stifel is
particularly to be congratulated upon
her vocal selection, 'To Sevilla," which
was in every sense satisfactory. The
quartette by Mrs. Flora Williams, Miss
Mary Vardy, Miss Margaret Harvey and
Miss Teresa Phillips also demonstrated
in the most pleasant manner the abil-
tiles of The vocalists of the Club, and
the number was greatly enjoyed as was
the duet by Mrs. Williams and Miss
Harvey. Mrs. Nellie Warren-Holloway
was the piano soloist of the afternoon,
having one double number and one sin
gle number upon the programme
Praise of her work is always unneces-
sary, for she is easily one of the fore
most pianists of the city, and never
fails to win merited applause from her
hearers. The concert was eminently
successful from every point of view.
For some time to come, owing to the
absence of Mrs. Williams from the city,
the direction of the chorus will be in
the capable hands of Mrs. George B..
Caldwell.

OFFER MADE FOR STOCK.

For several days past there has been
a rumor in circulation in Bellaire to
the effect that the Bellaire steel plant
had been or would be sold.
The Register attempted to get at the
bottom of this report, but as is usual
in such matters, gentlemen interested
and possessed of the information de-
clined to talk. The report was a per-
sistent one, however, and last evening
it was learned that there was basis
of foundation in the fact that a COM
bination of capital, described as for
eign, had made the company an offer
for at least controlling interest in the
capital stock on a basis of $21S per
share. The offer is said to be under
consideration by the management, but
the decision to be arrived at is only
guess work.
1t is known that the last years op-
erations by the Bellaire Company were

SPANISH INTERNAL AFFAIRS.
Senior Silveia Makes Important Announce
ments Regarding Conservative Policy.

Madrid, January AT the meet
ing this evening of the Conservative
Club, Senior Silvela, formally confirmed
the previously reported complete agree
ment between himself and General Pol
aviepa and made an important an
nouncement Of the Conservative policy
Senior Silvela said he recognized Senior
Sagasta's services to the throne, but
censured the premier's policy in Cuba
and especially his conduct with regard
to the war between Spain and the Uni
ted States. He declared that the pres
ent Cortes was morally dissolved, and
said he believed that the fall OF Sagasta
was iminent
The financial question, Senior Silvela
said, he regarded as most important.
He favored a tax on all personal prop
erty, the increasing Of indirect taxa
ton and the effect from the large econ
omies in the pensions; supported the
maintenance of concord with the yati-
can and advocated the reorganization
of the administration Of justice, freeing
it from the influence of politics. He
favored also reforms and the establish
ment of a ministry of public works and
commerce, having control of posts and
.
sity for giving a powerful impulse to
the industrial resources of the country.
Regarding foreign politics, Senior Sill
vela held that SPANS geographical po-
sition precluded her becoming a ter
ritory governed by foreigners. adding:
1--WE must, therefore, reorganize the
army and navy so as TO be in a position
to defend the country in case of neces-
sity"
In conclusion, Senior Silvela declared
that he did not believe Senior Sagasta
was DESTROYS of retaining Office.
The cabinet will meet tomorrow and
on Monday Premier Sagasta will go to
the palace to notify the queen regent
of the ministerial crisis.
