Strike situation.

The intense strain endured by the men
and officials of the mill at this point was
relieved last evening when the news came
that a settlement had been made. Con-
lectures as to the terms were made on
all sides and various rumors were afioat
as to When the works would be started.
From official sources 1t was learned that
as the repairs were not yet completed,
they would not start for some days.
Greater haste will now be made to get
the mill in shape. The men are pleased
with the condition of their organization
here. They now have a membership of
$3.50. not one of whom has ever shown any
inclination or expressed a desire to go
back TO work before an agreement had
been reached. The business men are
greatly relieved, now that a settlement
has been reached. IN several instances
merchants have been carrying large ac-
counts for the me a fact which is appre-
ciated by them and will not be forgot
ten. The mill officials here deserve credit
for the way in which they have acted
during broken relations with the men.

Special to the Register.
CUMBERLAND, Md, Sept. 14.-The
hatred manifested by Senator yelling
ton toward President Mckinley while
the latter was living, he still seems 70
manifest now that the latter is dead.
His utter indifference publicly express
ed when the President was shot down
was a source Of great annoyance to his
friends here and to-day his business
associates implored with him to send
some word of coincidence to Mrs, Nc
Kinley, and thus right the wrong i'm
preston he had already created. To
ali their pleading Wellington turned
a deaf ear and refused to send one
word of sympathy. Friends whom
Wellington has always tried to please
called upon him and explained the
situation but for once they were IN
able to change his mind and it is not
likely that he will relent.
: Wellington has always had a large
following here but his best friends
fear that his conduct toward the mar
tyred Pesident will injure him not only
politically but in a business way The
Citizens Bank of which Wellington Is
president, was draped in mourning this
afternoon.

A PECULIAR PHENOMENON.

The sun ~urrounded by n Sumbcr of
Rings and Inverted Rain Bow Here
Noticed.
SISTERSVILLE, w. Va, September
14.-Something which not even the
oldest inhabitant" can claim to have
any knowledge about was seen here at
Don to-day, when it was discovered
that there was a very distinct and en-
ceedingly fright ring around the sun.
There were several other rings, much
less distinct. to be seen, and all Of
them intertwined with the principal
one aro.nd the sun. On the east OF
the sun could be seen an inverted rain
bow in which many prismetic colors
could be distinguished. The discovery
of the rings was soon noticed all over
the city and caused a great deal of eX-
element. The supersitious became
greatly alarmed and claimed that the
rings were the f~orewarning of dire dis
asters which are to follow. Many rea-
sons for the phenomenon were given
by as many different people, many OF
which we're lU%dicrous. but no 8aCtsfac-
tory explanation could be given.

New Light on Patterson.

New light has been. thrown on the cut
ting scrape that happened at the Cosmo-
politan saloon, just south of the b, 4 o.
tracks, Friday night, The facts are diff
fcuft to get, as no one seems willing to
talk. An eye witness stated last evening
tina ,tho blame for the affair rested
mostly on Patterson himself. After a
round of the saloons in the central part
of the city, he came to this cafe and In
sisted on some foreigners setting up the
drinks. This one of them did and was
ordered to do so again, but refused. At
this Patterson is said to have struck the
man a singing blow in the face, nearly
knocking him down, and was about to hit
him again when the man drew a ~stilletto
and slashed him across the face with the
result mentioned yesterday. The story
Patterson tells seems to be only one sided.
The man was hardly responsible when he
made the statements given yesterday. In
v~estigation shows that he had at least
one other quarrel that evening with a
crippled man, on Union street. Grave
charges are made agaif4tn him by his
wife's people, which If true show him up
in a bad light. His a~ssailant skipped out
of the city on a freight soon after the
trouble and no doubt is far enough away
by this time. He could have been appre-
hended very easily had the proper effort
been made. A fellow countryman OF the
Italian was arrested. but will not divulge
the particulars of the affair.
