All work has leen stopped on the
Burnsville extension " the Little Ka.
nav ha railroad The contractor
have been modified and the flf-
teen hundred men who have been en-
gagged at work on tunnels, cuts and
grading will be idle. This statement
Is absolutely true aud comes from
President J +. Blair, of the Little
kanawha railroad.
The tightness in the money market
is one OF the causes assigned aud
other Cuisines reasons, are given.
Up Till the last, at the Pittsbu con-
ference In which jeorge Gould, Presi-
d mt Ramsey, OF the Wabash, Presi-
den, Blair and other high officials or
the Wabash interests participated,
President Blair contended for con-
tinnation Of the plans that had been

assisted him In his contentioB, but
Mr.. Gould decided the fate Of the
Little Kanawha Railroad, for the pres.
emit at least, and bl his orders all work
is stopped. Nor is there any prospect
In sight OF IL again being resumed
soon.
The stopping OF work on the Little

SUED his PHYSICIAN.
Bruce Casteel Claims he has
been Greatly Wronged.
Doctor Said Things About him Based
on Length of Time his leg Refused
to Heal -Casteel Brought Here and
leg OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Suit
Brought at Uniontown Against Con-
pellsyilIe Doctor.

Bruce Casteel who lives near town
has brought suit against Connells-
Vile physician for SANDER. The man
sued is DR.. John c. McClenatban. No
statement of the merits of the case
has been made by d. M. Hertzog who
is counsel for the plaintiff.
Casteel was employed as lineman
on the work being done 10 Uniontown
and in October 1901 he fell from tel
ephone pole breaking his leg.
He was at once admitted to the hos
pitaI 10 Connellsville and he was kept
there until July 1902. He was dis
charged then without his leg being
cured. He came here and the mem
Der was amputated.
While 10 Connellsyille he was treat
ed by Drs. White, Shupa, Mccormick,
Mckee, Atkinson and McClenathan.
Drs. White and Shupe dnally perform
ed difficult operation scraping the
ends of the bones and wiring the frac-
ture together. Even this was unsuc-
cessul. DIR. McClanathan was the
last OF the hospital staff to treat Cas-
teel. He had him for a private pa
tient for several weeks after the expi-
ration OF his usual term of service at
the hospital When Casteel left the
hospital, DIR. McClanathan told him
that on account Of some constitution
al trouble the bones of his leg would
not unite.
About week ago Casteel went to
Connellsville, and going to the physi-
clans who had seen him during his
stay at the hospital, stated that Dr.
McClanathan had mangIed his charac-
ter by telling that an infectious con-
stnutional disease had interfered with
his recovery. Casteel told the doctors
that his character and moral standing
had been injured by this statement,
and that he sought vindication In the
eyes OF his parents and friends. He
asked for certificates from the physi
clans, setting, forth that SO far as
they were able to See there were no
visible indications ofthis disease. Sew
eral physicians granted this request.
being careful to state, however, that
their opinion extended only so far as
outward manifestations were concern
ed. DIR. NJ. b. Shupe would not give
Casteel a certificate because he thought
that the failure OF the fracture to unite
was caused by some variety OF consti-
tutional trouble.

The Junior law class has decided
TO take the matter Of discipl lie in
its own hands and the enforcement
of its DEGREES has caused slight
ripple in the class and through the
University.
Two members OF the class have
been reprimanded by the president
of the organization, Roy Yoke, in
the presence of their class mates.
They have been put on their good
behavior AMI if there is any thing
more out of the way they will be
reported to the faculty with the
recommendation that they be fired.
A trial was held yesterday at the
University. The entire class was
present. The two young men against
whom charges had been preferred
were also there. The class discuss
ed the matter deliberately and said
things about people who had no
respect for their venerable dean.
Following the discussion the de
cision of the boys was carried out.
They warned the two culprits that
they would stand for nothing more
and told them that any further
outbreaks would cause report to
be sent to the faculty about the
matter.
The president of the class then
reprimanded them. He gave them
a rather warm toasting. Then the
lads were dismissed. They were
rather surprised as they HAD ex-
pected to have their class mates up
hold them in what they have done.
Recently the whole matter was
canvassed by the boys and they had
decided to stop all foolishness and
deal with those who we're inclined tc
be unruly. 1t is thought that there
will be no further trouble.

1t is now stated that the Wabash

The Standard Oil Company has
advanced the price of crude illumi-
mating oil, the higher grades three
cents barrel and the lower grades
two cents a barrel The advance is
attributed to the failure to find new
productive territory and the steady
decrease in the stocks above ground.
The advance, it is thought, may
stimulate activity in the oil produc-
ing regions. Same old story.
