Reply to Some Statements Made by
Supt. kirker.
WHEELING, July 8, 1901.

WHEELING, July 9, 1901.
To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-In the columns of last nights
News appeared a statement from Supt.
l.. S. klrker, of the Wheeling fraction
Company. In order that no person
may be misled, we feel 1t our duty to
reply. He says the statement that a
man was discharged because he was in
strumental in getting the Bellaire men
in the union, is The state
ment that two were discharged Monday
because they joined the union is also
untrue, says he.
Two of them were told plainly why
they were discharged, and If the third
wants to know, all he has to do is to
inquire, and if he thinks it necessary
he will be told. We wish to say that
we will inquire shortly, not of Supt.
Kirker, but before the Board of Direc-
tors, and it is to be hoped that they
will at least consider the cases of all
three men in a fair manner. These men
knew it would be better for all employees
of the Traction Company to be in one
organization, and consequently ar
ranged matters that way. The leaders
were singled out by Supt. Kirker and
discharged. 1t is a well known fact
that Mr.. Kirker was a busy man last
Saturday with his ~lieutenants trying
to persuade the men not to join tie
union on the Wheeling side of the
river; that if necessary, to form one OF
their own.
If Mr.. Kirker had nc objection to a
union, why did it make any difference
to him which one the men went into?
We have assurances from the COM
pany that the matter will be taken up
as soon as possible. Between now and
that time it is to be hoped that the
fair-minded public will consider where
these three discharged men claim they
were treated unjustly, and that their
words will be given equally as much
consideration as Mr.. Kirker's. We
hope no trouble will follow, but we
have some rights and propose to look
after them.

 The Probate Court at its recent term se- lected three gentlemen whose names will be placed before the next meeting of the City Council. from which the coun- cil must select a manager for the city dispensary for the next twelve months, beginning on January 1. The names chosen are John, w. Crawford, for the past year manager of the dispensary; James w. Carter of this place and Sim Corder. a wealthy farmer living in the western part of the county. While the county has no interest in or benefits from the dispensary, yet the law makes 1t the duty of the commissioners court to select three nrmes from which a dis pensary manager shall be chosen. It is generally believed that the present offi- cial, Mir Crawford, will be reelected. as he has given good care to the business since he has been in charge.

JEFFRIES MERELY

San Francisco, November l6.-The town is still talking of the Jeffries-Ruhlin fight and the men who paid over $S0, 900 into the box office have come to the him with the aid of one of the Oregon's 13-inch guns. Ruhlin is not a high-class man. Jeffries had hardly an opportunity to show what he could do if pushed. He appeared in excellent form, was quick on his feet and never lost his head. He apparently made no effort to avoid Ruhlin's gentle taps, but went steadily after his man. Apparently he could have conclusion that they did not get a good run for their money. To them it looks as if clever managers had arranged a little easy money for Jeffries' in biting him against a man who could not beat ended the fight in the first round had he been so inclined.
 Next month Jeffries is to meet Tom
