TERMINAL SALE.
Opinion is General That 1t was
Bought for the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company.

Opinion is General That 1t was
Bought for the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company.
There was considerable discussion
yesterday concerning the sale of the
Wheeling Bridge and Terminal prop
erty to the New York bankers, and
the general opinion appears to be that
1t was bought for the Pennsylvania
company, but with some sort of an
agreement that it will be used by the
Wheeling and Lake Erie company as
an Eastern terminal for it's lines. At
any rate the prominent officials of the
w. & l.. E.. who were in the city ap
pear to be satisfied with the sale.
= The Terminal is exceedingly valuable
to the Wheeling and Lake Erie, and it
is not at all likely that officials of the
latter road would permit the property
to go into the hands Of owners that
would crowd them out. The law per-
tanning to such sales, provides that the
court will refuse to confirm in the
event that responsible bidder offers
ten per cent. more than the sale price,
and deposits the additional sum as an
evidence of good faith

WELLSBURG.

WEL.SBURG, w. Va, May 23.-The
Tennis Construction Company, which
has the contract to build the street car
line here, brought about thirty-five
Italians from Pittsburg yesterday, to
take the place of the colored la5orers
who struck for better wages Monday.
The Italians, after arriving refused to
go to work at $1.25 day and said they
would not work for less than $150.
The company at first refused to give
this, but the Italians made ready to
leave this morning on the s o'clock
train and the company rather than
loose them agreed to pay them their
price. A number of the colored men
are still about town, and can be seen
in groups on the streets discussing the
situation. 1t is feared by some that
there will be trouble tonight, but
the darkies have little or no money
and are compelled to remain sober
The colored men say they rave no
grievance with the Italians as long as
they work for $3.50 per day. Labor
ing work of this kind has been Teceiv-
ing $3.50 per day since 1893, and this
is the first instance ia Weilsburg
where men were asked to work for
less.
Tomorrow the single and married
merchants will play ball at Midway
ball park.
Monday afternoon while Fl. Barth's
delivery boy was hauling rubbish, he
in some manner allowed the horse to
back over the embankment at the foot
of Charles street. Rubbish has been
thrown over there for wears and often
burns. At this time there was still
some fire where the horse CHANGED to
go over, and before the horse could be
rescued it was badly burned.

Cheap Money.

Considerable talk has been INDUCED
in lately concerning the possibility of
scarce money for the summer and fall
months. The following information
will be of interest to both the borrow
er and lender. 1t is from tAe New
York Financial Journal a recognized
authority on all matters of finance:
The time money market dull and un-
changed. Rates are quoted at per
cent. for four months and per cent.
for six, seven and eight months. The
commercial market quiet and unehang-
ed. Rates are quoted at 312 and 4 per
cent. for prime endorsed bills receive
able. and AZ per cent. for first~class
single names, and 51a per cent. for
others not so well known.
So far as the money market is con-
cerned all indications point to an ae-
emulation of funds, and low interest
rates during the summer

A Unique Manner OF Death.

said r. A. Fallows yesterday. which
struck me as being distinctly clever:
What character is there in the Bible
who possesses no name, who suffered
death in different form from any inflicted
before or since that time, A portion OF
whose shroud is in every household and
the cause of whose death has been made
famous by modern author?' Give 1t UP,

possesses no name; no one else met death

Last evening about half past five
O'Clock several boys, who were playing
on the river bank below the La Belle
landing, saw an object floating in the
water, and on pulling it ashore found
1t to be the body of an infant The
boys at once made known their dis
eoyery to the police, who in turn mott
fed Coroner J. W. Schulrze There is
no clue to who threw the body in the
river. This is one of a number of cases
OF similar nature requiring the cor
oner's attention lately.

Ignorance Of wnr

The British officers do not seem to
understand enough OF the art of war.
1t Is to be doubted II barrack life In
England and the colonies is conducive
to the requirement of the art. From
what We have read of it, we should
think that in military circles the off,
GERS regard military exercise some
what OF bore. and the army q profess
sion rather than n trade. Social life,
or how TO make the service endurable,
is the main thing. Dress parades now
and then, tour of duty at Aldershot,
some meals taken In barracks, pool at
club, run down to London for the
opera or the music hall, or q visit to
a friends country place-so pass the
hours for the younger gentry who have
found place as officer in her maiesty's
military establishment.-Mobile Regis
