4 MIGHTY June
MERCHANDISE
MOVEMENT

AT 7:30 o'clock tomorrow morning
there starts in this store the most ag-
gressive movement ever attempted in
the commercial annals of Wheeling.
The recent immense purchases Of va
rious manufacturers surplus stocks
placed us on the LIST of June with the
largest and most varied assortment ev-
er gathered under our roof. The un-
favorable conditions which compelled
wholesalers TO unload goods, to a GER
tam degree, impel US to do likewise.
we must reduce this tremendous ag-
gregation, centralize the buying toward
great special lots of desirable and de-
pendable merchandise. and do double
volume of business between now and
July. Therefore we have grouped and
arranged these vast stocks, and cut,
siashed and sacrificed in the prices-re-
garding not cost or value We might
fill this paper with the attraetiveness
and genuine money-savings of this
June event, but simply cite the items
below.

LARGE BUSINESS INTERESTS

May Compel Mr.. Ii. Il. McMechen to
Leave Wheeling and Locate at
FairmOnt.
Mr.. B. X. McMechen, the enterpris-
ing young business man of this city,
has just completed the details of the
purchase of the electric light plant of
Fairmont, w. Va, the negotiations for
which was exclusively published in
last Sundays Register. The price
paid was S65, 900, and is considered by
judges an excellent buy. Fairmont is
growing, prosperous and wealthy
town, with every prospect of continuing
so. The electric light plant has a per-
petual charter and must, therefore, I'M
der proper management, constantly in
crease in value. Hence Mr.. McMechen
is seriously considering the selling out
of all his interests in this city and
locating at Fairmont, in order to give
it his entire personal attention.
Wheeling's loss will be Fairmont's
gain. for it goes without saying that
Mr.. B. X. McMechen is one of this
city's rising young citizens and his de-
parture will be much regretted.

Master with Naval Data.
WASHINGTON, June 6.-Ahmed
Pasha, the Turkish vice admiral, who
was sent to this country to investigate
our shipbuilding facilities with the
view to placing an order for a new
Turkish battleship in the United States,
probably will return to Constantinople
in short while. The admiral has re-
solved to lay the plans and specfica-
tions he has obtained from our shin
builders before the Sultan in person.
deeming this course wiser, and assur-
eddy more rapid than transmitting the
reports of his investigations to his
government through the mails. Ahmed
Pasha, upon being advised as TO the
Sultan's wishes in the matter. which
in all probability will acquiesce with
his own, will sail for home, taking
with him al the data collected in this
country. He will again visit the Phila-
delphia yards before he leaves Wash
ington en- route to New York to sail
for home. and also eontemplates visit
ing the Pittsburg iron manufactures
before returning TO Turkey.
