MIR. GRANT DENIES 1T.
States That No Dispute Had Arisen Be,
tween The Gas Company And SOutf
MOrgantOwn Council.

tween The Gas Company And South
MOrgantOwn Council.
Mr.. e. M. Grant wishes us to say
for himlthat there was no dispute be-
tween the Gas Company and the South
Morgantown council over the street
lamps. He had informed them some
time ago that the time would come
when the open lights could no longer
be kept up on account of the waste
of gas that they entailed. This was
six months ago. He states that re-
Gently he was notified by the council
to take out the lights and that no dis
pute whatever had taken place.
The article to which this denial is
given appeared in this paper on Tues
day and was based on information fur
nished us by one of the members CT
the South Morgantown council. He
told us what we published and conse-
quently the question resolves itself in
to conflict OF opinion in regard to
what was done between Mr.. Grant
and the members in question.

FRANKFORT, KY, Feb. 1.-William
Goebel was sworn IN as Governor of
Kentucky and j. O. Beckham, few
minutes later, took the oath of lieuten.
ant governor. The oath was admins
tered to both men by Chief Ju tic
Hazlerigg, of the court of appeals.
It was slow work obtaining the sig
natures of the members of the house
and senate, but finally the necessary
number of signatures had been CD
tanned As soon as the last man actul
ally needed affixed his signature to the
statement word was sent to the res l.
dence of Chief Justice Hazlerigg. of
the court of appeals He came at once
to the Capital hotel, passed directly
upstairs to the room of Mr.. Goebel and
administered the oath of office.
Mr.. Goebel was propped up with pill
lows and was able to raise his hand only
with the greatest difficulty as he listened
TO the words of Judge Hazlerigg. When
the oath had been given Mr.. Goebel
sank back exhausted, the effort having
been almost too much for his strength.
There were in the room at the time the
oath was administered, besides Mr.. Goo
bel and Judge Hazlergg, Arthur Goe-
bel, brother of the wounded man; Mrs.
WEIGH, his sister, aud Percy Haley, his
campaign manager. and two or three
intimate friends.
Mr.. Goebel was unable to say any
thing regarding the matter, but the
contented smile on his face bore strong
witness to the pleasure he felt.
Immediately upon leaving the room
where he had sworn in Mr.. Goebel,
Judge Hazlerigg went to an adjoining
room. where he swore in Mr.. Beckham
as lieutenant governor. This done, he
returned to his home.
Judge Hazlerig declined to make any
statement concerning the manner in
which the offices had been conferred
upon the Democratic contestants. "A
majority of both houses of the legisla-
ture declared for Them" he said, land
when l was asked TO to swear them in
there was nothing left for me to do but
to administer the oath of office. The
proceeding was, Of course, entirely
legal and proper. / would not have
done as | did had it been otherwise.
Mr.. Goebel, as soon as he was assured
that he was legally governor of Ken
lucky, took prompt action regarding the
military arm of the service Two orders
were quickly prepared for his signature,
the first of which discharged Adjutant
General Daniel Collier from office, and
appointed General John B. Castleman,
of Louisville, as his successor. The Sec
ond was directed to the commanders of
the militia now stationed in this city,
directing them to return to their homes.
Word was at once telegraphed to Gen.
eral Castleman Of his appointment, and
he is expected in the city today. There

Reecurts the Great Work Of the Army
for the Past Year-Requirements
in tire Philippines

WASHINGTON. Dec 3.-The an
nual report OF secretary Root is OF
more than usual interest owing to Is
vide scope and the fact that It treats
! OF subjects OF such importance as the
! Philippine insurrection. the Chinese
/ campaign the developments IN Cuoa
and Porto Rico. and finally with the
subject of army reorganization Some
idea OF what the army has been doing
| in the field and at home is conveyed
| By the secretaryis statements that its
/ operations included the prosecution OF
| the war for the suppression of the
Philippine Instruction and establish
ment OF the government in the Philip
| pines. the rescue of the foreign minis
| tiers in Picking. the preservation and
the relief OF distress in Alaska and the
construction of roads and telegraphs
there: the conduct OF the government
| of Porto Rico until May last, the con-
duct of the government of Cuba, prose
cutting office and harbor works. the
construction of sea coast Notifications.
the garrisoning and maintenance II
military posts and Notifications. the
discharge of little over onethird of
the army and the re-enlistment of sol
diers TO take their places. and the dis
tribution of supplies to the scattered
forces.
The chapter of the report treating Of
military operations in the Philippines
is a recital of the features of cam
paigns that were conducted in the is
lands during the past year. II is said
that the purpose was TO pursue the
bands of Filipinos scattered through
out the islands The effort was sue
cessful and resulted in the further and
practically complete disintegration of
the insurrectionary bands: in the res
cue of nearly all the American and
Spanish prisoners: in the capture Of
many of the leading insurgents and
the destruction of large quantities of
arms and supplies Secretary Root
saws that with the execution of the
military plans there all formal and
open resistance TO American authority
in the Philippines terminated. leaving
only an exceedingly vexatious and an
moving guerilla warfare of character
closely approaching brigandage which
will require time, patience and good
judgment to finally suppress.
Secretary Root SAYS the military re-
quirements in the Philippines may be
summed up as follows: For the i'm
mediate future, about 60. 900 men. This
number may be progressively decreas-
ed by the gradual disappearance Of
real instruction and the restoration
of order and by the substitution of ma
tive troops costing less than half tn
support

Pingree's anger has again
been turned towards the iron
and copper mines of the upper
peninsula. During the past week
a special message from His
Honor recommended such tax
and bill TO that purpose was
made a special order for last
Tuesday. The house wrestled
with the bill a whole day, the
upper peninsula members fight
ing vigorously for its defeat but
the only change they succeeded
IN making was reduction Of the
rate from three TO two cents per
ton upon iron ore. The bill has
gone TO the senate where it will
probably be Amounted with some
