| W. T. Crawford has been elected
Second Lieut.. of Company A, at
Wheeling. The officers Of that Com
pany are John 7. Glass, Captain; G. Il.
Morris, 1st Lieut., and w T. Graw-.
ford, I'd Lieut..
Robert l.. Osborn has been elected
Second Lieutenant OF Co. X. at Clarks-
burg. Lieut.. Frank Goodwin has
been In command Of this Company
since the promotion of Capt FL. r.
| Smith TO Major aud since the election
of Lieut.. Osborn, Lieut.. Goodwin
will be advanced doubtless to the
First Lieutenancy and afterwards to
the Captaincy, when Lieut.. Osborn
will be advanced, and new second
Lieutenant elected. Company X. has
| been rather slow In getting re.organ-
lied but IL seems that new life has
been infused and It is hoped IL will
soon become as good Company as It,
was before most OF the members en-
listed IN the Spanish-American war.
Two Companies Of the First Infan-
| try have lately been disbanded. They
were Company ID, at Berkeley Springs
aud Company l, at Charles Town. Al
great majority OF the men belonging
TO these companies entered the yolurl-
teer service of the United States and
1t has been found impossible To re-
cruit them to the required standard,
| hence they were dismissed.
There are at this time eight Com
| panies In the First Infantry A, at
Wheeling; b, at Weston; G. at Wells
burg; Il, at Martlnsburg; Il, at Bur-
ton; X, at Clarksburg; l., at Morgan
town, and M, ut Terra Alta. Six Of
| those Companies are ingood condition
and ready for service, but B, at Wcs-
ton and X. at Glarksburg, are slow In
organizing. The authorities at Char
lesion are becoming impatient and If
something is not done soon they will
lose their place in the Guard.
The Governor has decided to limit
the Companies liz each regiment to
nine, and IL all OF the companies now
In the First remains there will be
room for one more. Sistersville and

cation In for one, and doubtless some
action relative TO the mastering III or

WATTERSON TALKS.
Tells Some Interesting Things
About Kentucky.

Geebel Not the Author of the Law that
Bears his Name-Fought the Inv
that Resulted Indirectly in His death
Facts about the Contest-futerest
ing Information about Goebel.
Henry Watterson talked a great
deal to the young men of the Univer-
ssity while be was here. He told them
of many things of great interest in
connection with the deplorable state
kof affairs now existing in the state of
kentucky over the fight for the COVER
ynorship. The worst of this was over and
1.-THE courts would now have to pass on
the merits of the two contestants.
Mr.. Watterson thought that there
was no doubt of what they would do.
He stated that contrary to the gen.
eral impression Governor Goebel was
not the author Of the law that bears
/ his name. In fact he and Watterson
fought the measure shoulder to shout
der when it was proposed. Goebel
was leader and finally the measure
was submitted to vote of legislature
against his protest. He voted with
his party against the earnest advice
of Watterson.
One of the consequences of that act
was that he fell a victim to the work
ings of the law although sacrificed in
directly by it. BY strange turn of
1.-THE wheel of fortune the law had
taken his name although he had OPP
posed it bitterly.
The action of the legislature which
declared Goebel elected was not in
accordance with the provisions OF this
|act but in accordance with general
law similar to that in force in every
Estate in the Union. The board which
acted under the provisions of the
| Goebel law declared the republicans
to have been elected. This has gen
orally been misunderstood in this
section.
Goebel was declared to be pure
man not only in politics but in private
life. Not the slightest breath Of sus-
picion ever rested on him. The un-
! fortunate killing of Sanford was de-
clared to be justifiable.
Sanford was bad man. He had
killed his man. He was dead shot.
His friends outnumbered Goebel's adj
herents ten to one. He fired the first
shot but strange to say missed. Be-
|fore he could repeat Goeble shot him
dead. So much was the latter endors-
led by public opinion although in the
home of the friends of the dead man
that no move was made to indict him
land no one ever thought Of making it.
The unfortunate occurrences that
shave taken place in Kentucky during
the progress Of the contest are deeply
regretted by Mr.. Watterson but they
are now thought to be at an end and
the rest of the troubles will be settled
in law abiding manner.

River city (Ro.slesburg) is being built

BAD FREIGHT WRECK.
A Ii. Il o. Coke Train Breaks In Two
st Dunbar.

DUNBAR, Feb. PA runaway
coke train on the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad yesterday afternoon caused
great excitement at this place. The
train consisted Of two engines and 46
cars of coke. South of town the train
broke into three sections at the furn-
ace trestle which spans the p. r. r.
and B. s. 0. railroads. The two Sec
tions came together, making terri
rible crash. Three cars were reduced
to kindling wood and their contents
strewn about the ground. A woman
who was travelling along the tracks
was partially covered with coke.
She was quickly rescued from her per-
ilous position, badly frightened but
not injured. The broken train came
through town at terrible rate.
Many of the residents living along
Railroad street fled from their homes
panic stricken, expecting every mo-
ment to be buried beneath tons of
coke and splintered cars. Truck
wheels rolled out from under the cars
into the middle of the streets. Two
cars were pushed along for nearly one
half mile without trucks.
The second pile-up occurred at
Watts station. Twelve cars were
smashed up. The tracks through
town were strewn with coke and
pieces Of cars. All the switches along
the track were torn up. The tracks
were blocked until an early hour this
morning. Trains Nos. 81 and 81
were transferred to the Pennsylvania
road to point past the wreck. None
of the trainmeu were injured.

22-Judge j. M. Jackson has decided
that a man convicted Of murder and
granted new trial on the motion Of his
own attorneys cannot be convicted at
the second trial for higher degree OF
crime than was determined at the first
trial. BY old attorneys this is said to
be the first time this mooted point In
criminal law has been decided in this
State. The decision arose in connec-
tion with the trial Of Jack Wise who
stabbed Ed Winans in the Hender-
shot oil field over year ago.
