Gypsies, who are encamped just west
of Elm Grove, got drunk In that town

point Marshal Fitzgerald interfered

pretty badly used up.
In police court yesterday morning the
Mayor fined the one S. and costs for
disorderly conduct and the other $40
and costs for resisting an officer. The
Gypsy Queen" was present and paid
both fines.

were quickly upon the ground The

were quickly upon the ground. The
fugitive could be easily tracked to the
creek but there pursuit by this means
ended. Off1cer Sol Douds sprang aboard
the second section Of No. rs. which was
leaving, and at Wheeling creek, two
miles west, searched every car. At that
point there is another large gang OF
Austrians working, but they were
reticent and replied reluctantly to ques-
lions put by the officer.
Officers Douds and Adam Meister
went to the boarding house of Mike
Mortesti in the alley to the rear of Ed
ward Eberle's grocery on Pike street.
The place is kept by Austrians. The
inmates were greatly agitated and de-
MED that Mike had his lodging there,
but afterwards admitted it. The prem
Uses were searched but Mortesti was not
found. The first section of No. 76 was
boarded at Barton StatioB. eight miles
north, by Constable Clarence Denham,
VI OOltIdlu tOWuSuip, anu q AldA was
taken into custody, but was afterwards
released, as his identity was fully es-
tab!ished.
Coroner A. c. Beetham, of Bellaire,
was promptly upon the scene of the
murder and had the body removed to
the undertakes. The fatal wound is
a deep cut below the point of the chest
bone and pointing upward toward the
heart. A second cut, six inches long,
is on the inner side of the right thigh.
An artery was severed here. Dr..
Beetham will continue the inquest this
morning.
Among the citizens of Bridgeport who
were partial witnesses of the tragedy
were Conductor Chester Campbell, En-
gineer J. Sandburn, and Freight Agent
VIM. Alexander. The latter saw the
affair at a distance and his testimony
will corroborate that of Yard Master
Pendery.
George Mertesti was AZ years old and
a widower with four children in the
fatherland.

According to an edict issued by the
city police authorities last evening the
sundowners, "chippies,' Fly by nights
and nymphs du pave will have to cease
business in Wheeling or be locked up.
If the order is carried out as issued,
we shall miss some familiar faces from
Market and Main streets during both
the early and late hours of the evening
hereafter.
A good many females not generally
suspected will fall within the limits Of
this order, and quite number OF
fancy shirt waists, black skirts a la
mode, with the proper number OF but
tons on the back, and some strictly
first class summer millinery will be
absent from the evening promenades,
while Main street, from Twelfth south
as far as any old street on the South
Side will take on the semblance OF a
thoroughfare in deserted village, for
if the women go, the isolated man who
is apparently waiting for car will go
too. and SO we will have desert where
once there was an occasional oasis. 1t
will be dull on South Chapline street,
too, and on various streets in East
Wheeling, and on North Main street,
and likewise on North Market, and
Fourteenth, and on-Oh! ever so many
streets, including some away down
town. If this order means business 1t
means a god deal of a change, and the
results will be watched with anxious
expectancy.
Chief Clemans said last night that
the order would be enforced. That
means that the girls will have TO
hustle around to certain places little
earlier in the evening and stay all
night. for to go home" in hack
might even be dangerous. 1t cuts ON
after midnight suppers and early
morning promenades. 1t will be no
longer the thing to get out in the street
after twelve O'Clock and wrangle loudly
and profanely with gentleman friend,
"cuss'' a hack driver, or wave hand
gaily at cop" To dodge UP a dark
alley may be to run foul of a con-
scienceless "peeler,' and to leave the
vicinity of the Second ward market
house for indefinite localities in North
or East or South Wheeling may be to
run a gauntlet the extreme end OF
which may be the basement of the City
Hall and involve an audience with His
Honor, the Mayor, in the morning, with
Jailer BILL Mccormick in the extreme
background, his broad child-like smile
beaming upon the erring and incorrig-
ible defendant.
It's a tough prospect, but such are
the orders from police headquarters,
and all int rested will govern them
selves accordingly or take the sad con-
sequences.

wheeling In September.
Fidelius Riester, Theadore Roller,
Jas. P. Adams. D. G. A.s-gan and other
local insurance men, have returned
from White Sulphur Springs, where
they attended the meeting of the West
Virginia State Underwriters Associa-
ton. About forty insurance men were
present. representing every section of
the State. The purpose was to effect a
State organization, and to perfect plans
for the work devolving upon it. The
union Of western managers of the big
insurance companies has heretofore
controlled West Virginia, fixing rates
in the State, etc., but recently dropped
this State.
The meeting at White Sulphur was
very interesting. The insurance men
were unable to agree upon the rate to
be paid to agents, and adjourned to
meet in Wheeling September I'd. Other
important matters will be under con-
slderation at the meeting.

HARD LUCK
A Wheeling Drummer will In all Probability
not Take Vacation.


not Take Vacation.
A certain Wheeling drummer had
but one Ohio city TO make before TAX
ing his summer vacation. Before he
left this city Monday for the Ohio
city" he drew money enough to see
him through twelve-day revel by the
sad sea waves at wicked Atlantic City.
Upon arrival at ''the Ohio city, he put
up at first-class hotel and at 10
o'clock retired for the night. In the
morning when he awoke he looked to
see if his money was safe. But he
searched in vain. Some one had re-
lieved him of all he had on him-$160.
A telegram to this city procured en-
ough to stand his hotel bill and fare
back home When he arrived he re-
marked to several of the boys. to whom
he related pathetic account of his ex-
perience, that although he did not
really feel the need of a rest he
thought he would stop off two days
at Asbury Park on his next eastern
trip.

fenced a very warm feeling on the back
Of his head and neck. He was for a
moment at a loss as to the cause. Fin
ally he turned the new umbrella, which
he was carrying around and discovered
that it was ablaze, nearly half the cover
being consumed. There was no ex-
PLANTATION to be offered for the blaze.
Mr.. Ankles neck was pretty badly bis
tered.
