WERE DRIVEN FROM THE CARS,
At Ironton, Omen Afraid to Run

ing to Recognize Union.

Ironton, o., Aug. 4.-The strike of
the employees of the Camden Inter,
state Electric railway almost com
aletely tied up the lines from Guyan
cote, w. Va, to Hanging Rock, o.,
and intermediate points yesterday.
In seven hours all the non-union men
were driven from the cars in this city
ny violence. Crowds gathered at
street intersections, hurting fruit
eggs and other missiles at motermen
and conductors. At noon James San
GERS, union man. who refused to
quit, was taken from his car and
dragged toward the Ohio river. On
promising not to resume his car he
was escorted home in roundabout
way, to escape the crowds. The con
ouetor on the same car and linemen
were taken home in cabs to escape
the mobs. Cars were held up all over
The city until noon, when traffic was
suspended. Non-union men were also
afraid to run through the crowds at
Catlettsburg and Ashland. KY, and
ether points on the Kentucky and
West Virginia side of the Ohio river
The Ironton strikers ran cabs and
secured more passengers than the
street cars, women who chose that
mode of conveyance in preference to
street ears being cheered by the
crowds. The concert at Beechwood
park, the railway company's pleasure
resort, was abandoned, the Ironton
orchestra declining to play after the
strike was declared. The crowds OF
union sympathizers had full sway
Without molestation from the au
thorities, not policeman appearing
at any of the points of disturbance
The local militia will leave for camp
at Newary today, and the preserya
tion of order will devolve upon the
officials in case of more serious out
breaks, almost certain to occur if the
cars shall be opera ed.
Seth Ninson, of Huntington, w. Va.
general attorney of the Camden com
rany, arrived here yesterday after
room and hciS an informal conference
with the strike leaders. He said the
company was willing to recognize the
union, but there were no assurances

lent chance of election. The dis
trict is the same in which Elk Vice
President Stevenson resides and
while it gave Republican majority
in 1900 the nomination of Mr. Yost
will add unusual strength to the
ticket and democrats are sanguine
of success.
Mr.. Yost has many friends in
Morgantown who congratulate him
upon his nomination and who will
be pleased to hear of his election.
He is a son,of the late DIR. F Il. Yost,
of Fairview and attended the Uni
versity from 1881 to 1886 graduating
with law degree. He located in
Morgantown for the practice of his
profession but later moved to Pom
tiac, Ill. He was elected city at
torney of that city in 1895 and was
the Democratic nominee for county
Judge in 1898 but went to defeat
with the remainder OF the ticket in
a republican landslide.
The Bloomington, Ills. Daily Bull
letin says of Mr. Yost: He is Meth
er politician or Office seeker in the
sense generally used but has always
been a Democrat and denounced the
manipuiations of the trusts, oppos
high tariff and other class legisla
ton. He has proved very popular
in his home country and will also
meet with equally favorable reeep-
ton in the other counties of the dis
trict as he becomes acquainted. He
is believed to be the strongest man
that the Democrats of the district
could place in nomination at this
juncture and in view of the very
general Republican disaffection and
the rivally between the Yates and
Anti Yates factions, has very fiat
tering prospects for victory at the
POLLS next November"

FIRE AT DELLSLOW
Pixler Station and the General
Store Of d. c. Nuce Burned.

Mr.. Nuee and Oliver TIT Barely Escap-
ed With Their Liyes-L0ss From
$1,000 to S3,0O0-Fire Supposed to
Be Started by Lighting.
The building at Pixler Station on
the n. d X. r. r. took fire during
the storm about 3 o'clock Sunday
morning, and was totally destroyed.
The stock of goods belonging to d.
G. Nuce, who conducted a general
store in the building, was also con
snmed. Loss on goods about 3d.,
900; partly insured The building
belonged to the r. r. Company and
was not insured.
Mr.. Nuce and Mr.. UT were sleep
ing in the second story of the build
ing and escaped in their night cloth
es barely in time to save their lives.
Fortunately, Mrs. MICE was away
from home, visiting friends in Pres
ton County.
1t is supposed that the fire was
started by lightning. The men in
the second story heard cracking
noise on the first floor and starting
to go down, upon opening the stair
way door were met by dense volumn
OF smoke and they had to jump from
the second story windows in order
to get out. There was a very heavy
rain here but no other damage was
reported.
The storm in Morgantown and all
over the county was very heavy. Two
houses were struck by lightning in
North Morgantown. At the home Of
Mrs. Stanton the chimney was wreck
ed, stove pipe torn off, and the stove
shaken up. Another bolt came through
the roof and tore large hole 10 the
slate. Mrs. Stanton was shocked but
soon recovered. The house occupied
by j. III. Wiles was struck but not SER
iously damaged.
A very heavy rain fall accompanied
the electrical storm and several per-
sons who were out driving got
thoroughly drenched. The first storm
came before midnight and another
between midnight and morning. The
heavy rains are bad on harvesters but
are booming the corn crop. Ii Hicks
predicted drought in August fails to
pass this way there will be one of the
largest corn crops the county evey
had.

HARRIS GOT HOMESlCK
And as Last Resort 1t is Thought he

Central City-Chief Brought him

Stole a Boat and ROwed Clear 20
Central City-Chief Brought him
Back.
Chief Price returned Saturday
night from Central City and Hunting
ton this state, where he arrested Al
bert Harris who is thought to have
stolen boat belonging to Minor and
Clark. The boat was found in his
possession and as the case is pretty
strong against Harris he has been
placed In jail TO await the October
court.
Harris lives at Central City and un-
til Tuesday week ago was employed
here in a machine shop. 1t seems he
did not like Morgantown and dug out
for home. He now claims that he
boarded freight train and went via
Pittsourg and bought this boat along
the way paying SIS for it.
However this may be the boat was
missed about the time he left and as
fellows who were intimate with him
asserted his inconsistencies and as he
was veritahle 'water dog" suspicion
w MN az UliC lptip'
The owners of the boat wired to
points down the river and found that
he was ahead Of them at nearly every
point. He was at length located at
Central City and Chief Price went
after him. He found the boat at the
Central City wharf but found Harris
had removed to Huntington day or
two before his arrival. The chief
then went to Huntington swore out
a warrant on charge OF having stolen
goods in his possession and brought
back his man.
The boat is a valuable one-worth
about $25 and as the case is under the
Jurisdiction of the government, spec
ial laws applying to the rivers and
harbors, it is expected to go hard with
him if conviction follows.

cents per gallon and cream has gone
up to 80 cents. The town is not well
supplied with diaries at these prices
and often cannot accommodate new
customers, One ice cream man got
as much as 10 gallons of cream in a
single week from Pittshnrg. Ice
cream for wonder, is reasonable and
is sold as low as 5 per gallon by one
dealer and never more than 81. SO.
Peaches are just coming into the mar
ket and are selling at ST. 40 pei bushel.
The advance in hotel prices is not
only noticeable here but all over the
country. AT Fatrmont the hotels are
charging $50 per month for board and
Morgantowners returning from the
east say the advance is general. At
first class New York houses, which
until this year, have charged So per
day for ordinary rooms, occupied by
transients, SO Is now the minimum
rate, and the rate by the week Is $35
instead Of $40. The 50 and 50 houses
have followed their example and have
increased their rates from SO cents to
81 per day. Restaurants and eating
rooms in many cities have advanced
prices but the increase is hardly no
ticeable here as yet.
At such hotel as the Wallace, in
this city, the dinner consists of four
kinds OF meat, three vegetables, a
salad, relish or two, five kinds OF de-
sert, besides soup and tea, milk or
coffee. Such meal figuring in the
cost of help can hardly be furnished
for quarter and breakfast and sup
per must run 20 cents each This
makes IS cents day or 81. 55 per
week, so table board at So means run
ming the es tablishment for fun. The
wages Of all the attaches of the hotels
are increased over last year; in some
cases the wages are fully double what
was paid one year ago.
It is now almost impossible To get
rooms or board and room ia town and
it.would seem impossible to accommo.
date the students upon their return
this fall but the fraternity houses,
forts and private places now closed for
the summer, will doubtless solve this
problem.
