Rough on the Doctor.

A very amusing story Is current IN
London justat present concerning one
OF the most fashionable doctors. one,
indeed, who has very large practice.
1t seems that he has q telephone in his
bedroom. The other night when the
weather was particularly stormy and
the eminent physician and his wife were
both fast asleep the telephone suddenly
rang, and over the wire came the mes
sage: please come round at once to
Berkeley Square; Lady b is very
ILL.,"
The physician uttered an ejaculation
which was distinctly unparliamentary,
and handing the transmitter to his
wife. said: Say I am out of town."
which, like an obedient wife, she imme-
diately proceeded to do.
The following afternoon the physician
called at Lady BIS house, and meet
inG her husband. exclaimed: so sorry I
was not at home when You rang me up
last night"
But were you really not at homer"
inquired Lord B
of course not" replied the physi-
clan, with most unblushing efrrontery.
Then, my dear Doctor" spoke Lord
B, who l., bit of n was. in the
most earnest and sympathetic manner,
II must sympathize with you In your
terrible misfortune. For l distinctly
heard 4 mans voice In your bedroom
talking to your wife"
The face OF the physician is stated to
have defed description. all the more as
Lord b hurried off the moment he
had said this without giving him time to
utter q word In reply.

THE INTELLlGENCER
WHEELING, APRIL 90, 1900.
No Senator Elected.

II there was any real hope left that
the contending factions in the Pennsyl-
vania joint assembly would get togeth-
er and select senator before the expir-
alton of the limit provided by law, 1t
was dlssipnted yesterday, when the
vote on joint ballot was without q
change from the previous day. This
means that unless a special session Is
called and Is found able to agree upon
q senator, Mr.. Quay's seat will be va
cant when the new Congress meets in
December. The result Is about what
was expected by everybody who has
been watching the progress OF the
memorable contest. The opposition to
Quay never yielded, just as It said it
would not. and. while Quay lost
strength toward the last. his most ar
dent supporters went down with him. =
What the outcome Of the matter will
be remains to be seen. The trial Of the
ex-senator at Philadelphia is a factor OF
some moment in the situation. and 1t is
matter Of speculation. should there be
a special session In the future, as to
whether or not Quay would gain enough
to elect him, in the event Of his being
able to appear again as candidate
with the prestige Of the vindication that
an acquittal would give him.
Whether such result OF the trial
would cause n withdrawal Of enough OF
the opposition to give him sufficient
strength or not. certain 1t is that the
men who have been leading in the ef-
fort to bring about his defeat from the
beginning. are not likely to be affected
In any way. Their antagonism to Quay
is placed on too many different grounds
for the removal OF one of them to ma
terially alter the situation so far as
they are concerned. 5a

The War Reef Report.

It Is a relief to know that the army
beef Investigation Is ended and that the
court Of inquiry has begun the prepar-
alton of It's report. The matter has
been dragging along until the pub
lie has become surfeite6 with the scan
dial, If it may be called one. 1t seems to
be pretty generally understood that
among the features Of the report will be
the failure to sustain General Miles
charges that embalmed beef was sent
to the army; that the trouble was due
to damages In transportation and the
tropical climate, which spoiled the beef
soon after 1t was taken from the Ice;
that the canned beef Is wholesome and
nutritious, but when opened and e1-
posed to the tropical heat, became re-
pulsive in appearance and unpalat-
able"
II this Is a fair forecast Of these fea-
lures Of the report. 1t seems we are to
understand that. while General Miles
was wrong in the idea that the beef was
embalmed. he was right In stating that
It was repuisive and uupaiatable, when
opened In the West Indian climate. In
other words, that the contractors de-
llvered 1t In good condition to the gov
eminent, and II 1t became unhealthful
and unfit for the soldiers to eat, as
charged by Gen. Niles, the contractors
were not responsible. ~. ls.
The forecast Of the report does not
state II the court OF inquiry undertakes
to go any further than this and fix the
responsibility for any lack Of care that
may have caused the complaints and the
charges against the beef. That may
not come within the power OF the court,
but II 1t does the report may prove of
more than passing interest. 1t may
turn out that the facilities at the seat
OF war were such that the proper care
could not be exercised. aE
It Is hoped that the court may sue
coed in showing Just where the blame
rested or II 1t has found that the cause
Of complaint was unavoidable, that II
can show It to the satisfaction Of the
critics and the public In general. II II
Is true that the court OF inquiry is to
censurc officers who became aware OF
the bad beef being issued to the troops
and failed to report the matter until
after the war had closed, II will do one
good thing even II It has failed TO gat
at the real truth In the other matter.
