STARTLING If TRUE.
University Matters Said to be
Badly Mdddled
Resolution about Investigating Com
mittee Never Passed the Legisla-
Reorganization of the Beard
is Determined Upon--Wm. &. Brown
of Kingwood may be Appointed.

CHARLESTON, Feb. 20-The univer-
sity investigation is said to be illegal
and unauthorized Its recommended
tions have no legal right TO be consid-
cred by the legislature or to be observ-
ed by the board of regents of that in
stitution all on account of a techni-
cality.
Col. ]. B. Peyton Of this city, who
for years was clerk of the house of
delegates, and who has a thorough
knowledge Of parliamentary tactics,
was the gentleman who called the at
tention of your correspondent to the
blunder that had been committed by
the legislature.
The effect of the error may be far
reaching. The investigation was con-
Quoted by committee appointed
from both branches of the legislature
proceeding supposedly authorized by
the resolution. The committee took
evidence from all persons connected
with the university, hired Pennsyl-
vania stenographer at considerable ex-
pense paid witness fees and turned in
report and large bill for mileage
All this was done on a resolution that
was never regularly adopted and
which is still lying dormant in the
house. As stated it was illegal, and
the house journal shows that It was.
The journal shows that the resolution
was passed by a vote on motion By
Mr.. Stapleton to take it up for imme-
date consideration. The resolution
was not acted upon at all, and really
is still on the house calendar.
The result OF this break Is that the
university management If 1t desires,
can continue as If the resolution never
existed.
The ripper bills are now up to the
Governor. That he will sign them is
without question. An amendment
has been adopted making it possible
to appoint local man. This was de-
feated several times but finally pre-
vailed.
However 1t is SAID that the member
living nearest Morgantown is to be
Hon. William G.. Brown of King wood
a democrat who will be appointed ny
Gov. White. Brown was the candidate
for Congress in 1896 from the second
district.
1t is said here that unless the ap-
preparation bill as passed contains an
item for the Pan American exhibit
Gov. Atkinson will veto it. The
committee appointed to have this ex-
hibit in charge borrowed ten thousand
dollars on Atkinson's say SO and the
legislature has agreed to pay five hum
dred dollars of it. The principal and
only objection was that Hon. Stewart
Walker democrat was president Of
the commission.

MIS-. Within u0iiands Uaugnter OF
Jesse Shuttlesu0rth, Accused of Set
ting Hotel On Fire-Found In
Wheeling by Ohio Officers Wealthy
Parents and Hayward Girl.
The following has been received
from Wheeling:
Elsie Holland, pretty young wo-
man, said TO be very accomplished,
the daughter OF wealthy parents liv-
ing near Little Falls, w. Va, was
placed under arrest yesterday after
noon late on a charge of having set
fire to hotel in Massillon, O., one
day last October. For some weeks
Mrs. Holland has been an inmate OF
the Florence Crittendon Rescue Home
in the North End. She evidently
sought shelter there fearing arrest.
When she was put into custody by
Capt Ritz she did not deny the charge
Of arson, but said: LET them prove
it," The young woman was taken be
fore Justice OF the Peace NJ. j. Fitz-
patrick, who held her for further de-
velopments. She sent a message to
her parents, aud said until she heard
from them she would not decide
whether to go to Ohio without requi-
stion or remain here and fight the
case.
Mrs. Hollands arrest was brought
about by the chief Of police of Can
ton, who came armed with warrant
issued by Mayor John II. Robinson
of Canton, the county seat of the
county In which Massillon is located.
The warrant alleges that the young
woman, on October 3, 1900, set fire to
Daniel Miller's hotel and boarding
house. 1t was damaged fifty dollars.
The Canton policeman says Mrs. Hol-
land has led a maynard life. She be-
came entangled with hotel cook and
1t is thought their troubles resulted
In her alleged attempt TO burn the ho-
tel. The young woman is sailing un-
der an alias. She said her father was
worth $75. 1000, and she did not intend
that her true name should be spread
broadcast. She is tall, has rather an
interesting face, and the officer says
is well versed In the ways of the world
generally.
The young woman in question is a
daughter of Jesse Shuttlesworth, Of
Little Falls, who, as is well known, is
quite wealthy and well respected
She was married some time ago to
William Holland, but their married
life was unhappy and they separated.
Her father has been i'll for month or
more and was unable to go to her, but
Hon. w. r. ID. Dent, of Grafton, was
telephoned and retained as her lawyer
IL is not announced whether the requi-
sition will be demanded or not.

SUIT BROUGHT.
T. B Wilgus Alleges Possession
of Third Interest.

In the iron City Oil and &as Company
Private Partnership Merged into In
corporated Company Without For
mality Of Transfer and Without
Consent OF one Partner.
T. B Wilgus has brought suit
through Cox & Baker for a one third
interest In the Iron City Oil and Gas
Company. d. S. Brewer and Robert
ID. Barrickman are made parties in
the suit. Mr.. Wilgus sues to recover
under partnership which had been
formed between him and the other
two men under the name of the Iron
City Oil and Gas Company.
Under this partnership it is alleged
Mr.. Brewer leased a lot of territory
some thing over six hundred acres for
the benefit of the company. After
this was done the company was incor-
porated without Mr.. Wilgus having
been taken in. A large number of
other people took stock in the concern.
The company took charge of the
territory that had been leased as it is
alleged without having had it trans
ferred from the private partnership to
the chartered concern and began to
drill it. Wilgus gave them notice in
December that be was partner and
that he had right to one third inter
est in the concern. No atten lion was
paid to this.
A new well has been drilled and ar
rangements made to bring the gas to
town. The value Of the holdings of
the company amounts to from $780,
600 TO $50, 600.
The members of the company who
have been seen in regard to the mat
ter state that the suit is largely bluff
but the attorneys for Mr.. Wilgus say
that their client has a right to what
he claims and that he will undoubt-
ely recover.
In the organization of the charter
ed company Mr.. Brewer and Mr.. Bar
hickman are heavy stockholders. The
agreement under which they operated
together with Mr.. Wilgus has been
made a matter of record. The case
will decide some very important
points.

CHARLESTON, w. Va. Feb. 20
The most sensational feature OF the
senate's consideration of the appro-
priation bill on second reading was
the stringent resolutions adopted
concerning the university. Appro-
priations were unchanged, but on
motion OF Osenlnn resolution was
adopted stating that no part OF the

deney. 1t carried II TO 4.
Another resolution was adopted
providing that all printing L4ust be

no part Of the money should be used
for summer quarter.

to the constitution was made spe-
eial order for Wednesday.
In the house, while discussion of
the Weston insane asylum appropria-
ton was going on, AIR. Smith of
Ohio, and Sinclair of Marshall, had
little set-to. Mr.. Sinclair seemed
to think an accusation was made
against him when Mr.. Smith raised
the constitutional point that Mr..
Sinclair being a BENEFICIARY of the
bill had no right to vote on it. Mr.
Sinclair made an indignant speech,
winding up with the statement that
Il am willing to answer the gentle
man on this floor or elsewhere, men
tally, morally or physically" The
point against Sinclair was sustain
ed.
The appropriation for drugs was
stricken out, and directions made
that 1t be paid out of current ex-
penses. Five hundred dollars were
edded to that fund for the purpose.
Mr.. Wetzel attacked the appro-
priation for Storer College, which he
said was private institution, and
wealthy enough to own bank, sum
mer hotels and other property, ON
which 1t paid no taxes. Its state
appropriation was never used for
state purposes, and no reduction in
expense was made to West Virginia

pie from other states The amend
ment was lost by party vote
