y MoRGANToWN, W. Va, March 81.
The first statement to be made con.
corning the purchase Of the plant Of
the Morgantown Tin Plate Company
at public auction here last week was
given out Saturday by John G. Frazer,
Of Pittsburg, who bid in the property
at s154;0Oo. Mr., Frazer stated en-
phatically that the United States
Steel Corporation is8not party to
the transaction and that the plant
was purchased by independent steel
men, who will operate the property
and will employ at least 1000 men in
the present plant and a large steel
mill which will be added.
An upset bid Of $4,000, thought to
have been filed with the bankruptcy

their behalf, prevented the confirma.

FINAL EFFORT TO AVOID
OIL, COAL AND GAS TAX,

e. q 4f + d . y.
CHARLESTON. March 27.-The
coal, oil and gas interests Of the State
have become greatly wrought up over
the announcement made by State Tax
Commissioner Dillon that lease hold
ers are to be assessed for taxation,
and the coal men met here week ago
to discuss the matter and see II some.
thing could not be done to avert the
threatened taxation. Announcement
has been made Of a meeting Of the
operators in coal, oil and gas with
Governor Dawson and Commissioner
Dillon for tomorrow, when it is
thought representatives of most Of
the important operations concerned
will be here to discuss the question.

THOMAS JEFFERSON
The Worthy Successor Of His Father
VIII Be Seen Tonight In Rip
Van Wrinkle. l

Ss Mr.. Thomas Jefferson who comes
to the Grand Opera House tonight
tMonday) is a worthy successor to
his still famous father, who will al.
ways be remembered as the great ex.
ponent of Rip Van Wrinkle, one Of
the most unique and romantic plays
ever written. Rip as Mr.. Jefferson
interprets him Is q loyable old rogue,
whom we all ought to despise for his
many faillngs, and the neglect and
laughing Indifference with which he
sees his family so from bad to worse,
poorer each day, and all on account
of his bad habits and laziness, but
instead of desplsing him he has our
sympathy from the start, and we laugh
at the lazy vagabond, and wish him
we'll. and put all the blame Of the do.
nestle trouble on the shoulders Of
the wife, as 1t is human nature to
blame some one. and we can'tFfind
fault with such a good.tempered grace.
less rogue as Rip. The romantic side
Of the play and its bearing on the su.
pernatural holds OUR interest and
places Rip on a different plane from
the usual stage drnnkard, who re.
forms in tie old conventional way,
after he has caused all the trouble
that he conveniently can. We don't
know whether Rip reforms or not. as
the play ends SO soon after his twenty
years sleep. but 1t may be- inferred
that a man who has been deprived Of
drink for twenty years won't have
much yearnlng for liquor left, and be
glad Of cold water. 81;

HOTEL MEN MEET.
t. L. Barns Tells Them About Catering
in a Prohibition State.

Kansas City, Dec, 15.-Large at
tendance and an enthusiasm and inter-
est perhaps never before surpassed in
the history of an organization of hotel
men in this country are striking feat
ures of the annual convention of the
Kansas Missouri Hotel Mems assoeia-
ton at the Midland hotel. About $50
men are here for the gathering. The
women, who accompany the members,
are being entertained as never before
by the wives, daughters and friends of
the local hotel men.
Mayor Neff spoke a brief address of
welcome to the delegates and visitors.
Colonel H. c. Whitley, of Emporias
Kan, president of the association, gave
the response. D. J. Dean. of Kansas
City gave an address touching upon
the benefits of the assoc citation to the
hotel men of the two states. There
was a paper by T. L. Barns, steward
of the Elks' club, Topeka, Kan, on
Catering in a Prohibition States" in
which he referred faceHOuSly to the
handling of trade in a state where
temperance is the law of the common
wealth. H. J. Bohn, of the Hotel
World, Chicago, appeared before the
society for a short address.
When the secretary, Charles L.
Wood of Topeka, Kan, made his re-
port it was to show the exceptionally
large increase in membership, fifty
I'VE for the year. The aggregate mem
bership is now PA. This probably
places the Kansas Missouri Hotel
Mems association at the head Of all
similar organizations in the country.

ANOTHER "JoTNIsT' FREE.
Governor Hoch's Assistant Attorney
General Unsuccessful in WyandOtte.

Kansas City, Kan, Dec. I'm J.
Higgins was acquitted of the charge of
selling liquor at 723 Miami avenue last
evening. Higgins was the second man
to be tried by the assistant attorney
general, Mr.. McCamish.
The jury took the case at thirteen
minutes before II o'clock and after
celebrating a short time was sent to
dinner The jurors took fifteen ballots.
They did not reach a verdict until al
most o'clock. They actually baIloted
for two hours and five minutes. The
first ballot was six for conviction and
six for acquittal. For three ballots the
vote was the same. And when the
jurors were sent to dinner without
having reached a verdict, the prosecu-
ton was delighted while the defense
was a little nervous The liquor men
had hoped for as quick a verdict of
acquittaI as In the Kenney case Tues
day.
Another ballot showed the fight
turning in favor Of the accused Hig-
gins. Seven men voted mot guilty, =
and for several ballots the vote stood
that way. others who had started out
in favor of conviction weakened before
the arguments of the mot guilty men.
1t was not long until the vote was ten
for acquittaI and two for conviction.
One of the latter two could not keep
the pace and at O'Clock only one man
was holding out for conviction

court room and the verdict of mot
guilty. was read. A large crowd had
waited patiently in the court room to
hear the verdict and many friends of
Higgins were uneasy and f1dgety as the
hands on the clock kept moving
around with the jury still out.
AS soon as the Higgins case went to
the jury the prosecution began picking
a jury for the trial of Lew Hampton,
charged with selling liquor at 731
Minnesota avenue. They ran out Of
material at $3.50 o'clock, and Judge
Holt excused the few who had been
chosen until $50 o'clock this morning,
when those who found Higgins mot

guilty. will be examined as to their
qualifications for service in the Hamp-
ton trial.
AS the Higgins trial was drawing to
a close yesterday morning Myron A.
Waterman avs called to the witness
stand, and all ears were pr1cked up as
John Hale began questioning him
about the interview Waterman was
said to have had with James Beggs,
clerk of the court Of common pleas.
Waterman said he asked Beggs to
contribute to the civic league fund
telling Beggs that the more money the
league had the more ''jointists'' would
be arrested. and, therefore, the more
cases would be fled in the court. OF
course, it would be more money in
Beggs' pocket to get all the cases. The

CHINA PRICES
SHATTERED
(Dept. in Annex Balcony }

Now, good people, we have altogether
too much china with only week to
Christmas in which to sell it out IN.
We would have to reduce prices after
Christmas anyway, SO we've. concluded
to make the reductions right now, and
give you the benefit when you'll appre-
ciate it most. Our entire stock consists
of imported samples, and at original
market prices was about half value.
