dore C. Steinhart, aged 4S, a stone
mason, was struck by Baltimore & Ohio
west bound express No. 8, at Bullneck,
one-half mile from Keyser, yesterday
mornig, and instantly killed. Steinhart
was a son of Charles Steinhart, who
was killed in one of Ashby's raids,
being a Confederate soldier. He was
a native of Virginia, and moved from
lockwood to this place twelve years
ago. He leaves a wife and daugh-
ter. Steinhart had a little dog, which
has been his constant companion for
years, and as soon as he was struck
the dog assumed a defiant position on
his masters breast, and would allow
10 one to approach until he was over
powered and tied, after which he kept
up a pitiful whine until taken away
from the scene.

crossed previous to trial are familiar
to the readers of the Register, as it
has been printed as it occurred. A
great legal battle will be fought out
during the course of the trial by the
attorneys, who will contest it inch by
inch. Great trouble will be had in
securing a jury. as there is doubt in
many quarters that the right man has
been arrested. The opinion exists in
the minds of many that evidence points
strongly to the commission of the trial
by another and much credence is CIV

A much longer list might be made,
containing other articles on which the
protective tariff enables trusts to
tax the American people in the same
way. The above were selected as fair
examples Of great Importance because
they enter largely into u industries
and greatly increases the cost of pro-
duction. Some of them are exported
and sold abroad at the foreign price,
while u people pay extra. "Of
course they do" said one manufacture
er. What else is a protective tariff
for?"
If the promises Of party leaders who
imposed the protective duties are to be
honored, then protection upon the
above articles and on many others
like them must be removed.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The SEN
ate will vote upon the Puerto Rican
| bill Tuesday at 4 o'clock, and previous
| to that time each session of the Sen
ate, beginning at II o'clock Monday
and Tuesday, will be devoted wholly
to this bill. Speeches will be made
by Senators Bate, Depew, Spooner,
Cullom, Mason, Clay and Culbertson,
and probably by other Senators. There
will be a great rush of speakers to-
! ward the close, and the time allowed
is considered too short to accommo-
date all who will desire to be heard.
There is, however, no disposition to
extend the time agreed upon for TAX
ing the vote. All but two of the COM
mittee amendments have been agreed
to by the Senate. These two relate to
a delegate in Congress and to citizen
ship, and probably will be voted upon
on Monday. The friends of the bill
count upon its passage by a handsome
majority, but it is now expected that
seven Republican votes will be cast
against it, the seven comprising SEN
ators Davis, Hoar, Mason, Nelson,
Proctor, Simon and Wellington. Sena-
tor McEnery, Democrat, and some in
dependent Senators will vote for the
measure, but until the exact number
of c1nh xy0foo iS En0uyn Tho .,oiOr;}y
for the bill cannot be predicted.
The taking of the vote on the
Puerto Rican bill on Tuesday will dis
place the Quay resolution, which was
set for that day, and Senator Chand-
Ter, chairman of the Committee on
Elections, has given notice that he
will postpone calling. it up until
Wednesday. The committee will adj
journ the Clark hearing in order to
give it's attention to the Quay resolu-
ton Wednesday, but as it is not ex-
pected that the latter matter can be
disposed of in n day, it is probable
that the necessity for going on with
the Clark case after Wednesday will
cause another postponement of the
Quay case and there is quite a notice
able disposition on the part of some
Senators still further to postpone the
vote on it. Senator Penrose, however,
announces his purpose to press the
consideration as rapidly as possible
after it is once taken up.
The Quay resolution is subject to dis
placement by appropriation bills, con-
ference reports and the Spooner resolu-
tion for temporary government of the
Philippines.
The Philippines resolution will be
made the unfinished business after the
| vote is taken on Puerto Rico and it
will give way to the Alaskan code
measure.
After that it will divide the time
with appropriation bills and conference
reports. No prolonged debate is ex-
pected on the Philippine resolution,
owing to the fact that it is considered
a temporary matter and for the further
reason that the Philippine policy has
| received considerable attention in con-
| nection with Puerto Rico.
The Committee on Order of Business
is not yet thoroughly decided what
subject to take up after the disposal
of the Philippine resolution. There is
