Sherman stood first. For John A. Lo-
gan he perhaps entertained the warns

for this brilliant soldier was very pro-

cred safe man and an indomitable
fighter. Sheridan was one of his espe-

Colonel Veredeckberg, commanding

order for the surrender Of arms by
citizens In his letter Glover referred
to Governor Peabody as "a cheap an

two revolvers in his Office and defied
the military to take them from him.
Colonel verdeckberg at once dis
patched Major Naylor with squad
to capture the attorney and his weap-

barricaded and Glover appeared with
a revolver. declaring that he would
shoot the first man who attempted to
break down the door The place was
surrounded by troops and orders were
given to shoot the man If he appeared

City Council met las night with
all the members present except Jam
| son and Price The most imPor
tant matter to engross The attention
OF the city fathers was that of a cur
| few law.
This was referred to the ordinance
committee with instructions to draw
up an ordinance AID present 1T at
the next meeting of council. The
expression OF sentiment seemed to
indicate that the ordinance will be
passed without opposition.
The mem bers Of council are in ia
vor of such law on account OF the
effect which street Ioafing seems to
have on the boys OF town. 1t il
probable that all lads will be sent off
the streets after nine O'Clock and
that the police will vigorously en-
force its provisions.
Council could not be complete
without something about hestnut
street coming up aud last night was
no exception to this rule. Robert
Odbert through his attorney, Frank
Raymond, called attention OF the
council to the fact that he owns an
undivided one half Interest in lot
on the street.
The notice recItes the fact that a
strip of this wac takc4 for the use OF
the town in widening the street
without any compensation being
given Colbert and in spite of his pro
tests. Mayor McGrew was appoint
ed az committee TO inves sIgate the
matter aud adjust it.
1t will be remembered that when
the strip in question was taken Cd
bert took SHOT gun and stopped op-
erations of the paving gang with the
result that he was arrested and fined.
1t also developed that DR.. d. II.
Courtney had not given the deed for
the strip which he sold to the town.

cure this deed. The doctor has made

up considerable time. He wanted $29.-

allowed him $40 for It, 1t appears
that Wiles was present at council
meeting when it was determined to
put in this sewer and says that he
was directed to do the work. He got
at it at once aud when the town work

ditch was done. Council did not take

contributed toward the Mckinley Me,

last year the monument commission
offered certificates tn all those con-

cal schools made contribution. In
this manner about $3.50 was raised in

THINK ITS ALL OFF.
Wabash Seems to be Playing q
Waiting Game.

Condition OF AnAIrssNot AT ali faFofas
bic for Early Completion OF the Road
BY Way oil Grafton = Courts May
Hold sf Cases Which will Take
Years to Settle.
There is nothing doing on the line
Of the Wabash in Grafton or vicinity.
ALI men who have been employed on
the work have been taken away and
the courts now have charge of the
matter instead OF the show, !, pick
and turkey. Many people do not
believe That the line will ever be
built as a trunk line.
And they have many things 10 IA,
in regard 10 their side To make IT
appear reasonable. In the first pace
the question OF right Of way across
the Il. d o. at 9 alton will not be
decided for long time, possibly
Years, and il the me milne it cannot
be built.
When the Grafton council granted
the Wabash the right to cross the b.
d 0. at grade the latter protested
This doing no good they put the
Parkersburg branch ilto bankrupt
cy. When the Wabash wanted t,
push the matter of right OF way
they started the suit in the Taylor
county court
The b. d o. got an Injunction
from Judge Gof prohibiting this
suit from being brought in the CIR
cult court. They contend that il
must be in the u. 5. courts. 1t will
tax months TO decide this matter.
1t was submitted 70 Judge Gof and
he reserved his decision He has
not yet declared himself on the
subject
When the case finally gets thraugh
the L. S. court and it is decided that
it may be heard by the Ia, Tor coun-
t. court there is the State Supreme
Court TO hear it anil later, IT,
courts again, so th,t it will be years
until the legal aspects OF the mater
may be settled
And in the meantime the Wabash
aud the Pennsylvania-B. d o. in
terests may get together When
the. do that 1t is farewell to truck
line in the state. And many people
believe that this is what Is doing.
