organlzatIon OF cavalry division, He
believes that hundreds OF farmers from
ohio, Marshall, Brooke and Belmont
counties would do honor to Dewey IL
such q division we're formed. The

committee to arrange fol-, the cavalry
turnout.
1t has been called to the attention Of
the general committee, that there is
great necessity for the opening of a
bureau OF information at some central
point IN the city on February d and O.
1t is proposed that all hotel men, board
ing house keepers and families willing
70 house visitors, report to the commit
Tee In charge of the bureau the number
OF guests they can accommodate and
tie price for lodging aud meals. This
Information would be sought not only
from hotel men and others In Wheeling,
but also from Bellaire. Benwood, Mar
tins Ferry, Bridgeport and. Mounds
vile, as 1t is believed the crowd will be
so large that Wheeling alone will not be
able to accommodate 1t. A committee
will likely be appointed to-day to take
charge OF this matter.
