ASKS COURT TO ACT.

Special TO the Register.
PARKERSBURG, w. Va, February
Pa suit to settle up a partnership
in valuable oil property in Tyler u
ty. was instituted mere to-day in the
United States Court. The partnership
has been existing among Robert L.
Lanlberton, of Pennsylvania: Frank
Holden, Harry Ihrig, Henry e. Wilson
and Mart Miller, of this State. They
are the owners of five leases near
Long Reach, on which are nineteen
producing wells, whose production is
about four hundred barrels a day, and
the value of which is at least $780,
000. ~Lamberton, who sues his part
ners for a settlement, alleges that Hol-
den has assumed the management OF
the property and is managing it in
such a manner as to rapidly decrease
the production and depreciate the
value of the property, that he refuses
to make proper Developments where
they are needed and excludes Lamber-
ton from any part in the management
of the property. He charges that Hol-
den has mismanaged the property for
the purpose Of freezing out part OF the
owners, and that he has damaged the
property $4,000. He gives notice that
he will ask for the appointment of q
receiver on March 6.

Important Circular Issued.

Chairman Pratt has sent out to all
members of the Southwestern Passen-
ger bureau, a copy of a circular issued
by the New York Central & Hudson
River Railroad Company, West Shore
Railroad Company. Erie Railroad Com
pany, Deleware, Lackawanna & West
ern Railroad Company, Lehigh Valley
abroad Company, and the Pennsyl-
vania abroad Company.
1T relates to the Pan-American ex-
position at Buffalo and is as follows:
I'm view of the limited siding facil-
titles in Buffalo, N. Y, and the difficult
ty of maintaining proper sanitary con-
ditions, the attention. of connecting
lines is called to the fact that the
aboye-named companies will be unable
to store any sleeping or reclining
chair cars for occupancy at Buffalo,
or vicinity, during the Pan-Ameri-
can exposition"

Boston Herald.
1t is conceded that Presbyterianism
is to have a revised creed or a sup
Elementary creed, nobody yet knows
which. If the creed is revised, certain
objectionable things will be eliminat-
ted; If a supplement is added, 1t viii
explain that the retained Objectionable
parts may be taken to mean something
different from what the text naturally
indicates to the candid mind. The
main point Is to contrive a form that
will not force able and conscientious
men out of the denomination, and
this will be effected in some way. 1t
is doubtful, however, whether any form
of words that can be devised will long
withstand the dux of opinion charac-
terigtic of the present age in the realm
of religious doctrinal metaphysics. 1t
may be a question which condition is
most productive CT revolt. a creed
which men will not consent to accept
literally or one which admits that it IS
not to be taken literally. But the
world moves, and the light of truth
is no less earnestly sought than in
the former times.

THE NEWS OF THE RAILROADS.


The klieves, Kraft Co, who are re-
modelling the old B. & o. depot, on
South street. are pushing the work rap
idly and have made considerable pro-
gress during the past week. One OF the
most noticeable changes is that of the
entrance TO the second floor, formerly
n entered by way of a stairway from
the waiting room, but a door has now
been cut through the wall, at the
corner of South and Water street, and
the partition of the ladies' waiting
room has been moved in about a yard.
In this space, between the partition
and outer floor, a stairway has been
erected to the second floor. This made
it necessary to build a small addition
to the first room on the second floor.
This new arrangement is a great i'm
provement over the old one.
The new window frames and wood
work have arrived and will be placed
in position at once

Mr.. Rogers Replies.
. the Editor Of the Register.

10 the EultOr OF the 1eSlSLeT-
Sir:-"Fair Play" in your issue of
yesterday makes a personal attack
upon me. hiding behind his nom de
plume. His insinuatiOn that I was in
any manner responsible for his failure
to get a card published by the News is
positively silly. Possibly | would exper-
ience the same difficulty in securing
publication of a card in that newspa-
per. My offer to meet Mr.. Stevens was
| made in the interests of the truth,
which Fair Play" pirates about. The
offer of a large SUI of money, for a
bona ide supernatural manifestation,
was made for the purpose of inducing
any medium who can produce the re-
suits, to do so. Surely a man who
gets Spirits to work at fifty cents
a head would jump at the opportunity
to get $500 for the same "phenom-
ena" unless he were a fake" There
are no mediums who are not controlled
by the commercial spirit, hence an
offer that would attract any real me-
dunn.
| do not presume IN the ignorance
of common people regarding spiritual
affairs" It is Fair Play" who is him.
self guilty Of the presumption. He is
either a medium, and therefore an
iDlpostor, or a believer in spiritualism,
and therefore probably a dupe, or ig-
norant of the matters he undertakes to
discuss. His comparison of mediums
with Jesus Christ is blasphemous. but
is in accord with the views of the
great Indiana high priests of spirit
ualism, who declare that Jesus was
simply a medium. In any event, this
is not a matter in which personalities
should enter, and / shall not again
reply to any communication unless the
writer has the manhood to sign his
name. II. ". ROGERS.

es work out as follows:

The figures suggest a valuation for
the new preferred stock of about S4,
although the results in the case of
Federal Steel and National Tube indi-
cate a probable error in the terms
Of exchange.
We understand, for instance. that
National Tube preferred gets 12J per
ceE-- in new preferred, instead of 40
per cent, as given in the Herald table.
This at the price of 106 produces a
valuation of S4.S, which closely Ger
responds to the others. The Fedora
Steel allotment is clearly TOO low.
We give in the tables following a
comparison of the stocks Of the steel
companies as they are now and as it
is found to represent them by new
stock. 1t will be seen that instead
OF reducing capital to supposed valua
lions the amount OF stock represent
ing the companies which go III the
combination has, if the ratios are cor
rectly given, been very materially in
creased

MAKING PRISON EEEE PLEASANT.
So far as creature comfort goes-and
it goes q great way in this material
istic world-thece are very many worse
situations in which men spend their
whole lives than are to be found in the
West Virginia P~enitentgary at Mounds
vile: barring, of course, solitary con-
finement.
Last Sunday, for example, according
to a local chronicler, the prisoners
were treated to an eloquent and in
teresting discourse On Bible history,
and another divine conducted religious
exercises, a large number of visitors
being in the congregation. The reli-
gious worship was concluded by a
beautiful musical number given by a
local songstress, who led a fine choir
of child voices.
A liberal citizen donated to the al
ready large and excellent prison Ii
brary, ten splendid volumes Of stand
ard literature and an immense lot of
magazines for the convicts to while
way the time with. The library con-
sists of excellent works on religion,
history, biography, science, poetry,
travel, and romance-literature to suit
all tastes.
At dinner time a bountiful repast
was served, consisting of fried steak,
brown gravy. etc." which we are told
was appreciated" And thus closed a
day spent in religious and social dis
course, ~interspersed with sweet music
and good cheer.
Millions of American citizens con-
demned to spend their lives at hard
labor outside of a penitentiary did not
have q 1.-THE so interesting and delight
full a Sunday.
