sponsible position he held-that of
examining the joints of the big
pipe line.
1t is reported he was in local
restaurant about l o'clock this
morning, and left there shortly
before No. l was due to pass by
here. He is believed to have been
in a sober condition then. When
No. l reached Parkersburg a box
containing a pair of new shoes
was found on the cow-catcher,
and the engineer at once tele-
graphed that fact to the night Op-
orator here.
In the minds Of some there is
supicion of foul play. On a part
Of the unfortunate mans clothing
when found on the track was a
black jack, or billy. Whether
this was used by some one to
strike Sullivan or whether it was
his own property is not known.
1t is also reported that the man
had about $50 in his pockets last
night. When the body was found
only $1.05 was in his purse.
An inquest was held on the re-
mains of the man. After investi-
eating the case and deliberating
thereon the. jury adjourned to
meet again in order that further
Investigations might be made as
to whether the man had met with
foul play.
The home of the man is believ-
ed to be in New York State. Two
of his fellow workers claimed the
body and are having it prepared
for burial.

BIG CONVEN.
TON SATURDAY

For the House of Delegates r.
B. Clawson of this city seems to
be so well thought of for this Of
flee he will not likely have any Op-
position, and he will make splen-
did candidate. He is honest, a
good speaker, man who can and
will represent the whole county,
and will be elected in Novem-

For Prosecuting Attorney G..
B. Riggle of Middlebourne, will
no doubt be elected. He is a COM
petent lawyer, thoroughly honest,
temperate, a man who is for ev-
erything that is right and for the
good of the county and it's people,
strong candidate, and he will
be elected; and, if he is, there will
be Just such a change in this i'm
portant office as we need at this
time so badly.
For the second candidate for
the House of Delegates, Mr..
Smith. the nominee on the Prohi-
bition ticket may be endorsed.
He is an able and clean candidate
and with the solid Prohibition
and Democratic vote of the county
can be elected.
The candidates already sug-
gested are all good men. We do
not say they will be nominated,
but the indications at this time
point in that direction. 1t is 60
ing to be a large convention, and
an enthusiastic one. 1t will be
fair and square in every partlc-
ular. and that will be very differ
ent from the late Republican prl-
mary in which candidates were
nominated by virtue of intoxlcat-
ing liquors and money. Take a
day off, and attend the conven-
ton Saturday at Middlebourne.

Russell Boone, 9-year-old boy
from Indiana, who was being
raised by William Waters, Of near
Independence, Preston county,
was killed either by a gunshot
yesterday, either accidentally or
on purpose, which will never be
known. Mr.. Waters had purchas-
ed the boy a gun, and he had been
shooting at mark and ground
squirrels, so that they heard the
gun but thought nothing of it un-
til they found the boy dead in an
outbuiIding. AS the mind Of the
boy seemed affected at times, they
could not tell if it was an accident
or done during temporary insan-

Salem, w. Va, July EARLY
this morning the body of Thomas
Sullivan, an employe of the Hope
Natural Gas company, was found
on the railroad track here liter
ally ground to pieces. At first it
was thought that he had been the
victim of an accident, but later
developments seem to indicate
that Sullivan was murdered and
then his body was placed on the
track in order to cover up the
crime. A pool of blood has been
discovered in a switch in the
rear of the freight house, and
traces of blood have been found
leading from this point to the
place on the track where the
body was found. A suspect is un-
der arrest and the authorities are
now engaged in making a vigor-
Gus investigation. The man un-
der arrest was in company with
Sullivan last night, and it is said
that both had been drinking.
The supposition is that Sullivan
was robbed and murdered.
The murder or accident Occurr-
ed at point a few yards west of
the depot, and fragments of the
mans body were found along the
track for a distance of fifty yards,
the upper part of the trunk being
found in front of the A. J. Wat
kins building. The back of the
head was crushed in, one leg was
severed and the lower part of the
man was ground into pieces.
Sullivan is said to have not
been a heavy drinker, and this is
evidently true, as a man addicted

Saturday next is the day the
Democrats and a great many
anti-Red Ticket people of all par
ties will meet in Middlebourne
for the purpose of nominating
candidates for the various county
offices to be elected this fall. It's
a mass convention, and all are in
vited to attend and participate ex-
cept people who favor Red Ticket
candidates. Voters that can take
| in that combination and all it
means are not invited only as
spectators. /
The warmest fight will be for
the nomination of Sheriff. There
are five candidates who want the
nomination, namely: John Stealey
of this city, Lloyd H. Morris Of
Friendly, w. E. Kirchner of Mid
dlebourne, C. J. Allen of Braden
Station and John B. Riggs of Gen.
treville, but who has not announc-
ed through the paper, and, conse-
quently cannot hardly hope to be
much of factor. These men are
all competent to discharge the du-
ties of the office. They are sober,
honest, fair and square business
men, and the friends are going to
the convention in good humor
Saturday to fight for their favor
ite, and if they lose then work for
the nominee. Four of these can
didates will be defetaed, so that
many of them and their support
ers must be prepared to give up
kindly and peacefully and 60 to
work for the nominee.
For Assessor for this district
the candidate who seems to be the
most popular is James Thorn OF
Friendly. A bright, honest, con-
servative young man, and COM
petent gentleman for the office.

CBy the Associated Press

Toxic. Jan 30-The government, it is

Forthcoming note. although it has receiv-
ed various reports, the majority of which
say the reply Will be satisfactorily. None
however, emanate from a source which
warrants their full acceptance as correct
In the judgment of many just now the
character of the note does not warrant the
belief that Count Lamsdorf, the Russian
Foreign Minister, has given out the
slightest intimation of its contents. Even
that carries little assurance, for the Rus,
sian and japanese conceptions of what
constitutes fair bargain vary materials
ly. The government of Japan does not
anticipate the reception of the. Russian
reply for a few days. When it comes it
will probably be considered by the Throne
in conference with the Cabinet and Elder
Statesmen. The presumption that Rus
STA has made concessions does not in the
least warrant the conclusion that there
will be peaceful settlement of the ex1
listing difficulties. Her entire prepara-
ton will be carefully scrutinized and

situation closely weighed. If the reply

Port Arthur, Jan. 30.-Apprehension
that there will be war is still expressed
IN official quarters here, where it is also
SAID that a japanese descent is expected
at any moment. At the same time the
authorities declare that with the ,excep-
ton of strategical precautions taken be-
tween Lao Yang and the Yalu River
their plans have not been formed, and
that it will be impossible to complete the
arrangements until the Japanese make
more definite demonstrations of their in
tentiOnS.
The Notifications and field troops are
active and between Lao Yang and the
Siberian border the railroad is overtaxed
IN transporting recruits and replacing the
regiments dispatched to the Yalu River.
The authorities continue to charge the
United States with lack of tact and
courtesy and express annoyance at the ap-
pontment of United States Consuls at
Mukden, Port Dalny and Antung. No
decision, it is said, has as yet been reached
by the administration in regard TO the
consuls or the relations to be maintained
