New Lumber Line Completed.

The Preston Lumber and Coal Com
pany, which operates and owns a
large lumber plant at the town OF
Crellin, on the Youghiogheny river,
three miles from Oakland, Garrett
county, has completed it's railroad
within mile and a quarter of the town
Of Aurora, Preston county, w. Va.
The railroad runs through the
Youghiogheny river valley, and brings
into market some of the most valu-
able timber and timber rights found
in either Garrett or Preston counties.
1t is the intention Of the company to
complete the road to Aurora, which
is summer resort, and is one Of the
healthiest towns in West Virginia
The road now connects with the
Baltimore &c Ohio railroad at Huttons
Garrett county, and is a standard
gauge. The town of Crellin is one OF
the most thriving in Garrett county,
and the mills OF the Preston company
employ about 200 men. 1t has been
founded about six years.

BOTH FEET TAKEN OFF.
Walter Townsend suffers ampntation
as the result of getting them
frozen.

During some OF the recent cold
weather Walter Townsend a buggy
painter, of Masontown. Pa, was
found in the stable of David Staggers
at Cummins postoffice, Greene county,
in badly frozen condition. He had
formerly been employed by ]. r.
Staggers at buggy painting but had
been away about three weeks and had
just returned to that community.
He was addicted to drinking and was
intoxicated when found. He was
taken to the home of Mr.. Staggers
for a time and later sent tn the Coun-
ty Home, as his condition seemed
quite serious. His feet were so badly
frozen that on Sabbath last it was
necessary to amputate both of them
one being taken off above the ankle
and the other at the instep. The
operation was performed by the Coun-
ty Home physician DR.. t. L. Blair
DR.. j. T.. .Ullom, and DR.. Cloud of
MasontoWn. DR.. Smith OF Jefferson
also was present. Its feared sec
ond amputation may be necessary.
Townsend is only 26 years of age and
was good workman.

First West Virginia.

WASHINGTON. ID. c., Jan. 14-Rep-
resentative Dayton to-day received a
communication from the war depart
ment informing him that the First
West Virginia regiment of soldiers
had been ordered to be mustered out
and it is expected the order will be
carried into effect within thirty days.
1t is intimated at the department
that all regiments now in the field,
with single exception in the list for
muster out, will be disbanded at the
camps where they are now located.
The West Virginia delegation will
advocate change in the order as con-
templated especially so far as it affects
the regiment from their state, and
will endeavor to have the men sent
home for muster out.

A 400 barrel Greene county gusher.

A new 400 barrel per day gusher
was brought in last Wednesday in the
Former field, Greene county which is
likely to prove one Of the best wells
ever struck in that territory. The
new strike is located on the John Cary
farm, now owned by Tim Ross, and
is situated ia direct easterly direc-
tion from the best producers in the
field. The fifty-foot sand was reach
ed last Saturday evening week ago,
and started to flow at the rate of
about thirty to forty barrels per day.
At that time the owners OF the ven
ture were somewhat disappointed at
the outlook, but decided to penetrate
the sand to a greater depth. The
drill was again started and Wednes-
day afternoon the big strike was
made

Mastering out requires red tape

Although the order for the imme-
date mastering out of the 1st West
Virginia Regiment was promulgated
last Saturday it will be several weeks
at least, and probably month before
they will return home.
There is great deal of red tape con-
nected with the mastering out of d
regiment, and it will be several weeks
before all the formalities are complied
with. The officers OF course, were
not anxious for the regiment to be
mustered out, but the volunteers
found camp life very irksome. They
enlisted to fight and now want to re-
turn home.

Rural Mail Delivery at Fairmont.

WASHINGTON, D. G., Jan. b.
Representative Dayton and Postmas-
ter A. II. Fleming were at the post
Office department to-day to solicit the
establishment Of several postal routes
in the vicinity of Fairmont under the
rural delivery system. They were en-
couraged to believe their request will
be complied with, and it is probable
an inspector will be directed to go
over the ground at an early day BY
the establishment of the routes large
population will secure the1delivery Of

try, instead OF to each individual in

CARNEGIE LOOKS To BRYAN.
Says the Nebraskan could defeat the
treaty If he would only fight hard
enough.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-Andrew
Carnegie was an interested listener to.
dayto Senator Mason's speech. He ex-
pressed the opinion the ratification OF
the peace treaty might be defeated,
and said it certainly could be IL Mr..
Bryan would come out in opposition
TO it. IF he viii only advise his fol-
lowers to fight in the pass and not ia
the open. he said, ''the treaty is GER
tain Of defeat.
s'All that [ hear indicates the in
crease of the opposition ranks, and |
am quite encouraged to believe the
ratification Of the treaty can be defeat
ed. This is the opportune time for
those who oppose expansion to do
their work. Only va one third vote is
required to defeat the treaty, whereas
with the treaty ratified we will have
TO secure majority to make our views
effective. Hence | say that this is
the time for Mr.. Bryan and other an
ti-expansionists to make their fight.
Hereafter we will not enjoy the advan-
tage over our opponents that we now
do, having then to meet them in the
open field"

in this county was arrested by the

snow and while the sheriff was out
of the buggy taking the ice from the
wheels, Teets grabbed the whip and
started the horses at tull speed. The
sheriff followed on foot After go
ing several miles he found his team
tied by the roadside, Teets having
taken to the woods. He is still at
large.

SOME DENIALS.
Later denials of the Wilson
story are not so strong.


about Prof. Wilson-He has made a
favorable impression there-Denial
from Prof. wilson himself-H0wever
they all may have been made for a
purpose How the matter stands
now.
The matter OF the election Of Presi
dent w. L. Wilson to the presidency
Of Yale college was warmly denied by
the people there at first but the later
denials sent out have not been so pos
tive. The last one is something like
this:
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Jan, IRE
ports that the former postmaster gen.
eral William L. Wilson, was the latest
to be suggested for the presidency Of
Yale was not surprise to Yale men
in New Haven He was one of the
special lecturers in the Yale law
school last year, and attracted much
attention. He has many warm per-
sonal friends in the Yale faculty and
is admired by Yale men as one of the
most scholarly men of the country.
Whoever has brought forward Mr..
Wilson's name, however, has done SO
unofiicially. As yet the Yale corpo-
ration has taken no steps toward
choosing successor to President
Dwight. The corporation is in favor
Of allowing the matter to be freely
discussed before any official action is
taken
The above speaks very favorably of
the old congressman from this district
and does not go the length that some
OF the earlier dispatches did.
The secretary of the Yale corpora
tion says that no choice has been
made and none will be made for a
month yet. Who will be chosen then
of course he cannot tell.
Prof. Wilson himself says that he
has not been chosen or at least that
no tender Of the position has been
made and that he has not accepted
the place.
At the same time it is thought that
all the denials have been made be-
cause the report has gotten out pre-
maturely. Many people think that the
appointment is on the.tapis but that
those who are moving in the matter
do not want their plans to be given
away. They think that the appoint
ment may be made later. And SO
we all hope it will be.

in the interest Of John B. Floyd,
Charles P. Dorr, Jos. III. Gaines, G. T..
Caldwell and George Poffenbarger.
A meeting was held at which it was
agreed that the caucus nominee should

EXCITEMENT is LACKING.
The West Virginia Legislature
Fails to Furnish Sensations

For the Newspaper Men Who Game to
Charleston Expecting Unusual Scenes
The Hardest Struggle is yet to Come,
And 1t May Furnish a Hard Battle or
Brains, But there will be nothing
Worse-The Republicans Ready 70
Embrace Any Opportunity to
Strengthen Their Position in the
Senate.
CHARLESTON, w. Va, Jan. IL
Correspondents for newspapers pub
lished outside of the State, who ex-
pected To find every legislator armed
TO the teeth, have discovered that the
proceedings are conducted ia dis
tressingly decent and orderly manner.
The battles that are fought are battles
of brains. The fire-arm stage has
not yet been reached, nor will it be.
Undoubtedly the hardest struggle
is yet TO come, and 1t may be attend
ed by exciting scenes upon the floor
of the House and Senate. This de-
ponds largely upon what the Repub-
lican programme will be In the event
that Democrats from Monroe and Tay-
lor are seated There is this differ
ence between the respective positions
of the two parties: the Democrats are
conducting their case upon its merits
alone, while merit is entirely ignored
In the proclamation OF the Republican
managers that they will have IAN
eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
There can be no question that the
Republicans will gradually embrace
any pretext bearing semblance 60
Justice in unseating all the Democrats
in the Senate.
Thirteen hold-oyers will be a nice
little start for Senator Elkins toward
reelection in two years. 1t is very
likely, however, that the threat of
Collector White is intended to simply
bluff the Democrats out of seating the
legally elected delegates from Taylor
and Monroe.
The actual business of the legisla-
ture has been ignored, and nothing
will be done until the House Of Dele
gates is properly constituted.
With the exception Of creating a
few offices for recalcitrant Eepubli-
cans, the Senate transacted no bust
ness.
This branch Of the Legislature has
adjourned until Monday to await the
developments in the other end Of the
capitol building. The House met
this morning and adjourned until to-
morrow TO enable the special commit
tee on privileges and elections to con-
clude consideration of the Monroe and
Taylor county contest cases. 1t was
the scheme to swear In Brohard and
Via, neither Of whom had prima facie
title to a seat, In order to place the
Democrats in the attitude of unseat-
ing them.
The remainder Of this transparent
and exceedingly flimsy plan will be re-
vealed when they plead retaliation in
Justification OF their action In the
Senate. But there may be Republic
can members who will decline TO I'M
seat a Senator unless sufficient cause
is shown.

DELAYED SOMEWHAT.
Removal of the Postoffice is
postponed again.


Not very many boxes rented as the
work goes on-Better service to the
lock box holders and others-Open
longer on Sunday and Mt night
Money order Office.
The renting Of boxes in the new
Office is going on right along and
before long every one in the town
who wants box will have secured
it. The rush yesterday at times
was worse than any other time how
ever and Mr. Brown had a great
time filling out receipts.
1t is the intention to give out mail
at better hours for the public than
has been the rule heretofore
The office will open at the same
time in the morning and the wickets
will go down at the same time, seven
o'clock in the evening, but the lobby
will be left open until until nine SO
that those who have lock boxes
can have chance to get their mail
when they want it.
On Sunday the office will open
regularly at noon so that those who
have lock boxes can get their mail
earlier while the general delivery
will be attended to at the same time
as usual from four to five. The Of
flee will be LETT open until nine on
Sunday night.
The money order office will open
at seven and close at six except on
pay night at Seneca when it will be
extended an hour and will close at
seven.
1t had been the intention to move
the office on Saturday night but
this has been found to be impossi-
BILE. The renting of the boxes has
been such slow job that the Office is
not ready to be moved. It will be
transferred some time next week and
this will depend on the completion
of the arrangements which are ncees
sary to be made before the removal
can take place.
The force in the office could do all
that is to be done before the removal
in short time if they could give all
the attention to it but they have to
keep up the regular work at the
same time and it makes no small
job of the matter. However it wont
be long until the new office will be
in full blast.
