no provision was made for a ~appropfi-
alton to meet the Increased expense.
Chief Ritz had intended departing for
Milwaukee to-day to assist in the fight
for Wheeling as the place for holding
the next convention. When the men
took their stand against serving with
out pay, he made up his mind to re-
main, and expected to have to virtually
look after the protection Of the city
himself.
Matters were in this shape while the
men were discussing the situation at six
o'clock last night. Then the telephone
bell rang and Or. 7. N. Haskins called.
He discussed the matter briefly with the
Chief and ended by offering to pay the
salaries for the month Of May.
The Men Were Paid
at eleven o'clock last night. They all
assembled in the police Office and DR..
Haskins drew his personal checks for
$65, payable to each of the officers.
The men received the checks and de-
parted in excellent spirits.
Concerning his action DR.. Haskins
said:
"Of course the city owes the money
and the men are entitled to it. l am
willing to take a chance on the police
men. They have a just grievance and
should not DE compelled to wait indefn-
itely for the money they have earned.
l offered to pay the men simply because
| would look upon a strike by them as
nothing short of a calamity. 1t would
not do to place the city at the mercy OF
the criminal element for a single day
and night.
IF the First Branch Republicans pro-
pose to withhold salaries from the
policemen in accordance with any ques-
tionable political policy which may have
been determined upon, | will do what |
have done tonight month after month
for a full year if necessary. The men
are entitled to their money. and by
Withholding it from them the Demo-
cratic Councilmen are not to be coerced
into following a course which they be-
lieve to be improper and not in the line
of their duty"
The amount of money which DR.. Has
kins paid in behalf of the city to the
policemen was $2.541.15

THE INQUEST
Held Last Evening by Squire
chuItz to Investigate John Null
Vey'S Death.

Held Last Evening by Squire
chuItze to Investigate John Null
vey's Death.
Last evening Coroner John w.
Schultze held at his Office an inquest
to inquire into the death of John Null
vey, who was killed Thursday after
noon by a wall at the new theatre site
falling on him. The witnesses exam
ined were Allen Newman, Edw. Curd-
das, VIM. Carney, and Yahn Yansen.
They testified that they went to work
as usual Thursday morning and We're
digging where the old lookup stood,
west of the east wall, and that they
had not undermined this wall in any
way, but had begun to dig about two
feet west of the wall, and in digging
had sloped the side down so that the
bottom was tbout five feet from the
wall. The hole was about 5h feet be-
low the base of the wall.
Mr.. Carney, the contractor, sat in
the windows in the wall directing the
work and urged them to be very care
full and not u into danger. He was
still in the window when the wall be-
gan to topple. The other men ran out
of the hole, but Mulvey was unable to
run on account of the crippled eondi-
ton of his feet. The wall fell and
caught him beneath it and killed him
instantly. Carney was carried down
with it, and he was at first thought to
have been killed, but a later investiga-
ton showed him to have escaped unin-
jured. The witnesses stated that when
they removed Mulvey's body from the
debris life was extinct.

The Directors of the Board Of Trade
held their regular meeting last night
and considered a number of interesting
and important matters. The secretary
read a communication from the Cleve-
land Chamber Of Commerce, giving in
formation as to the method of conduct
ing trade extension excursions.
All the INGREDIENTS present reported
large trade on circus and Wild West
days, in a great measure attributable to
the advertising done by the Board Of
Trade. One local retailer said that he
had a larger number of farmer custom
ers on Buffalo Bill day than upon any
single day in the history of his bust
ness.
The subject of crowds, during Car
nival week was discussed, and various
suggestions were offered as to meth
DDS for taking care of the strangers
who will be in the city. The committee
will be urged to make provision at
once.
About two hours were spent by the
directors in discussing plans for addi-
tional funds for providing sites. The
matter was finally referred to the COM
mittee on new industries with authority
RI not urifbjp oartoip l;ni,c
Messrs. FIullihen Quarrler and How
ard Hazlett We're delegated TO go at the
expense of the Board to Cincinnati to at.
tend a conference preliminary to ex-
tending a call for a meeting of all per-
sons who are interested in the improve
ment of the Mississippi river and its
tributaries.
The directors decided to sent Secre-
tary s.. A. thompson to Philadelphia
June lila in response to the invita-
ton recently extended. Mr.. Thompson,
who is an i~ndisputed authority upon
such questions, will deliver an address
upon Economies of Waterways" While
the Board was in session, a telegram
was received urging that Mr.. Thompson
be sent.
The directors endorsed the effort
which is being made to bring to Wheel
ing the next session of the Synod of
Pennsylvania of the Presbyterian
Church. There will be 400 delegates, OF
whom one half will be laymen.
All memberships in the Board OF
Trade expire December 1st, and the
directors decided to permit all who
come in now to get the benefit of pro
rata rates.
Secretary Thompson will leave early
this morning for Milwaukee. He will
spend Saturday evening and Sunday al
his home and will be in the convention
city Monday morning, prepared to rem
der assistance to the local delegates in
their efforts to capture the 1902 conven-
ton of the Amalgamation. City Ser
! geant John S. Ritz will probably ac-
company him.
Chief Ritz has beer urged TO come as
soon as possible. He is a member OF
the Amalgamation, and if he is granted
the privilege of the floor he will make
the speech placing Wheeling in nomi-
nation.
The selection of a place of next meet
ing is one of the last items of business
OF next week before the table is cleared
and the convention votes upon the ques-
ton.

HOW KNIGHTS ARE MADE.

 !. The ceremony of investiture is an exceedingly quaint one. In most cases the order followed was identical, therefore that of knight commander of the Order of Bath may be taken as typical. On being admitted into the royal presence the knight commander to be invested made reverence to the king by lowing three times, once on entering the throne room, another in the middle, and again on approaching his majesty. He then knelt on his right knee. In comforting the honor of knighthood the king placed sword on both the candidates shoulders. The knight, for by that time he had be- come such, raised his right arm hori- zontally and his majesty placed his hand on tine knights wrist, who then raised it to his lips.
 While the knight still remained kneeling the king proceeded to his in- vestiture by placing the riband and badge of the order round his neck. and afterward presented his hand to the knight, who kissed it. The ceremony being concluded the knight would rise and. retiring, make similar reverence as tEat with which he was admitted.- London Daily News.
