Captain Hudson and Captain Richards
both testified that there was nothing the
matter with the engine SO far as they
could see except it would occasionally, as
often as three or four times a day get
stuck, and some one would have to pry
it off centre. Captain Hudson acknowl-
edged that if an engine constructed as
the one in the "Azure'' was would get on
centre there must be something detective
about it. Captain Richards swore that
he had told Sparks of the danger OF pry-
ing the engine off with the bar on top.
Edwin Lambert, at whose shops IN
Camden the engine was repaired, stated
that when it left his place it was in good
working order. He said that engines in
dredges frequently got on centre.

WISE is CHAIRMAN.

The Republican State Committee
met at Charleston Tuesday night. The
meeting was held in the Hotel Ruffner
and only Republicans Of prominence
were admitted.
Secretary of State Swisher presided.
He is vice chairman. The first bust
ness transacted was the election of a
permanent chairman to succeed FL
lott Northcott, who, at the suggestion
Of Pr. sident Roosevelt, resigned. By
common consent Hon. George Wise,o of
Wheeling was chosen. Mr.. Wise is one
of Wheeling's local Republican poll
ticians and was the predecessor of the
present postmaster, James Kelsey
Hall.
There was a general discussion of
'sbest issues on which to make the
fight, but there was no general agree
ment. Secretary Glasscock and Treas
urer Elliott, both federal ofiiceholders,
did not tender their resIgnations as
was expected.
A dispatch from Charleston says:
"Governor Dawson was at the meet
ing and talked about his pet taxation
schemes. He painted rosy picture
and said the people were in favor Of
the new laws and would approve them
at the polls. Sam Dickson, of Fayette
said to be behind the organization that
is suspected of grooming Congressman
Gaines for Senator lElkins' eat, did not
agree with Governor Dawson's views.
He said that Fayette would not send
legislator to Charleston next year who
would be in favor of allowing the pres
ent system of assessing and taxing
lands to remain in vogue. Attorney
Clark May declared that "those on the
inside were very well satisfied Just
what he mant by this wasn't plain"
