The action of the city council in
determining to pay off part Of the
city debt is along the right line and
the Telegram takes pleasure in an
nouncing that a resolution was
adopted Friday night directing the
city treasurer to set aside twelve
thousand dollars of the funds al
ready collected this year and apply
the same to the liquidation of out
standing debts. Frequently last
year the Telegram insisted that the
old debt be discharged and it still
insists that such be done. 1t is OBJ
iectionable to all to have a debt
hanging over city, but in some in
stances it can not very well be
helped. Still, every possible effort
should be made to get rid of the
present debt as quickly as possible.
However, let it be done in a man
ner that viii not greatly cripple this
years work.

The place for the next encamp-
ment Of the West Virginia National
Guard has not been decided on,
though impression got out some time
ago that Elkins would get it. How
ever, Elkins has not got it as yet,
and certainly there are more desir-
able places, and none more so than
Clarksburg. This city is centrally
located and a site can be furnished
that win serve all the purposes of
the encampment in the most salts
factory manner. The park ground
can be secured and certainly would
fill the bill. Again, the first regi-
ment is without band, the old one
having been mustered out, and here
is feature that recommends Clarks-
burg as the place as the largest
band ever in the State could be
formed and doubtless would be of
local, Shinnston and Jane Lew
musicians. Suppose the matter be
brought to the attention of the Gov
ernor and National Guard officers.
Let US urge them to bring the en-
campment here, assuring them that
the soldier boys viii be ropalIy re-
ceived and taken care Of in the best
of style. There must be quick ac-
lion as the time is almost at hand
for the holding of the encampment.
It is stated such movement will be
started, and it is the hope Of the
Telegram that all win heartily Co
operate with those at the head of it.

clarfsburg, W. Va, May 5, 1906.

Numerous complaints are made
by prominent citizens against
the habit of scattering hand bills all
over the streets, on the beautiful
lawns and in offices and other places
and demand that crusade be made
against it. There is an ordinance
prohibiting it, and the Telegram is
quite willing to aid in such cru
sade, but the cooperation. Of the city
authorities is essential. Hand bills
are not very satisfactory or substan-
tial ways of advertising any way.
Boys are sent out with whole punches
of them and they are thrown any
where and every where, trampled I'M
Ader foot and not often read, and, if
read at all, soon forgotten. In
kmany cases most of them are dump
ed into some corner, or creek or
river and that is the last of them ex-
cept as a public nuisance. A ply
stefan reports that he frequently
finds whole roll or bunch of them
in his office, placed there by the dis
tributor to get rid of them quickly,
and off they go to the trash pile and
in due time TO the crematory. Such
punches of hand bills are a.waste of
money to the advertiser, for he has
paid out something for them and gets
nothing in return. There are other
papers carelessly scattered on the
streets, in the alleys and on the back
yards, and even the front yards, that
destroy the beauty and cleanliness of
the city. 1t seems that the practice
could be easily broken up and would
be, if the people would but be care
full in such matters.

mine the amount of damage and this
must come from the evidence. On
the other hand, if it is shown by the
facts that the declaration is in error
and not based on facts there will be
a non-suit or a verdict for the de-
PENDANTS, If the plaintiff gets a
verdict, it will tend to change the
course that caused the suit TO be
brought. If the defendants are
given verdict, it will largely re-
move the assertion that discrilnina-
ton is practiced. So, that no mat
ter how the suit is determined, an
important result is the consequence.

land FIRM.

Cleveland, Jan. 16-According TO a
statement made last night by H. K.
Newcombe, of the bankers committee
investigating the affairs of Dennison.
Prior & Co, which is in the hands Of
Receiver Thomas II. Bushnell. the de-
velopments show that the gross liabil-
tiles Of the firm are 100000, not in
Guiding the $1,000, 900 in supposedly
forged securities. The assets Of the
firm, Mr.. Newcombe believes, Will be
about 100000.
Mr. Newcombe believes that few Of
the forged bonds were gotten into
banks outside the city Of Cleveland
and the state Of Ohio, and maintains
that the forgeries were used as collat.
eral mostly in this city. That would
make the extent Of the involving Of
outside financial institutions small,
Mr.. Newcombe said.
The private safe of Mr.. Prior was
opened after three days work by ex-
perts. 1t contained no papers or mem
oranda that would disclose anything
as to the status of the firms affairs.
Among the contents of the safe
were insurance policies to the amount
of 800, 600 on Mr.. Prior's life. Stocks
representing less than $15,O were
also found in the safe.

BUGET STATEMENT
OUTLINES CONDITIONS

St. Petersburg, Jan. 15.-The bud
get statement for 1906 shows that it
will be necessary to raise $240, SOC, 900
by credit operations to balance the es-
innate of receipts and expenditures.
The latter include $500, 100000 for the
liquidation of the expenses of the
Russo-Japanese loan for the repara.
ton of troops in the far East and the
reduction of the army to peace foot.
ing For the first time the total cost
of the war. $1,050, 100000. is revealed.
The credit operations to balance the
budget include the recent authorize
ton of $200, 100000 in treasury bonds,
SIS, 100000 of which have already been
used to renew the Mendelssohn loan,
and the credit of $160,000.00O which
former Finance Minister Koovsoff is
now negotiating in Paris. The pri-
mary object of the latter, the pro-
ceeds of which will be retained in
Paris, is understood by the Associated
Press to be the maintenance of the
stability of the ruble.
The budget statement does not
dodge the prevailing conditions in Rus
STA. 1t is pointed out specifically that
the receipts from all sources have
been scaled down, and, moreover. it
is stated that if the disorders in the
interior do not cease there may be
some branch of revenue on which it
will be impossible to count.
The statement concludes with the
following address to the emperor,
which was evidently prepared by
Count White:
These facts and figures submitted
to your majesty show that the pres
ent situation of Russian finances is
none too favorable This state of
things is the result of the war and of
che troubles which followed. These
troubles are of temporary character,
and it is fair to assume that they
will be ameliOrated in the near future
The elimination of those special
features has a sure guarantee in the
independence granted to a Russian
nation by your august will and by the
equality which has been assured to all
your majesty's subjects

WILSON WANTS The HONEY.
r1ueh Trade nav Be Lost Because Of
Lack OF INSPECTORS.

Washington, Jan. l5.-"UnlesS con-
gress speedily grants the emergency
appropriation of *l35. 900 requested
by me for additional inspectors and
microscopes. it is probable that over
$50, 600. 900 worth of orders for Amer
lean pork and beef products placed by
German dealers will go untitled.
This statement was made by Secre-
tary Wilson, of the department of ag-
riculture. Anticipating the high rate
of duty on products emanating from
the United States, imposed by the new
German tariff which will become eff
fective March next, and Germany at
the present time being in urgent need
of meat supplies. Secretary Wilson
said that German dealers have flooded
the packing houses of this country
with orders.
In speaking of this condition of
affairs he referred to recent structures
on his action in creating what was
stated to be a deficiency of Sl35, 900.
the amount asked by him, in alleged
violation of the statute on this subject
enacted during the last congress.
He declared that he had created no
deficiency, but that, on the contrary,
he was asking only for an appropria.
ton to meet the conditions which an
enormously increased business of the
last few months, with no increase in
the inspection force, had created.

rogers GIVES REASONS
FOR refusing ANSWERS

New York, Jan. 1.-THE attempt by
Attorney General Hadley, of Missouri,
TO compel Henry II. Rogers, the vice
president of the Standard Oil Com
pany, of New Jersey, to answer GER
tain questions put to him during his
examination before Commissioner San
born. came up before Justice Glider
sleeve in the supreme court.
Mr. Hadley said that he should leave
New York Sunday night in order to
attend to a motion in the United
States court in Missouri, relative to
the New York Life Insurance Com
pany doing business in that state.
The hearing was postponed because
William J. Curtis, counsel for Mr..
Rogers, had case in another court
which took him away from the exam
nation.
Attorney General Hadley divided the
questions which he asked that Mr..
Mr. Rogers be ordered to answer into
five sets. The first set of questions
refers to Mr.. Rogers ownership of
stock in the respondent companies;
the second to such ownership Of stock
in other than respondent companies;
the third to the ownership of stock
by other parties in the respondent
companies, individuals and corpora
tons, other than the respondent, doing
business both within and without Mis-
souri,.
Mr.. Rogers. in his answer to these
questions replies. as follows:
The first claim was that the Ques-
lions are immateral; second, that a
contest regarding the admissibility of
the same questions is pending before
courts in Missouri; third, that the at
torney general of Missouri has no legal
right to take dispositions in New York,
and that the questions are under con-
sderation in the courts of another
state; fourth, that the attorney gen.
eral of Missouri is not asking the queS-
tions at issue for purposes OF public
policy, but is bringing the proceedings
in order to gain advertising and per-
sOnal notoriety and as foe OF the
Standard Oil Company.
To support this last-named claim
the answer sets forth that the newspa-
pers have been fed with sensational
stories about Mr.. Hadley and his as
sociates, holding up Mr.. Rogers to con.
tempt and ridicule. 1t was further
contended that newspaper photograph
ers and artists have been given free
hand at the hearing before Commits
sioner Sanborn. causing Mr.. Rogers
great annoyance.

ENJOYS AT ALGECIRAS
MEET FOR ORGANIZATION

Algericas, Jan. 16.-The opening of
the international conference on Moro
ccan affairs has been definitely fixed
for O'Clock this afternoon. 1.-The
Duke of Almodivar, the Spanish min
lister Of foreign affairs, took the initia-
tive soon after arriving here yesterday
in arranging plans for the beginning
of the deliberations. All the delegates
had arrived during the day, and each
found note from the duke advising
that preliminary session for the pur-
pose of organization would take place
at o'clock. 1t is expected that the
duke will preside and will make a
brief address of welcome, after which
he will undoubtedly be made perman-
ent president. re@e sss+r~..ss,
On landing yesterday the American
delegates, Ambassador White and
Mr.. Gummere the American delegates
to the conference, were shown mark
ed attention. They We're met upon
landing by the governor and the al
calde, who escorted them to the hotel.
Now that the delegates are here, the
scene before them is suggestive. Plain
ly visible three miles away rises the
gigantic rock of Gibraltar, like lion
guarding the straits, while dimly out
lined to the southwark are the low
mountains of Africa. Algericas lies
in the center of this panorama. Thus
the powers of the world are gathered
at the southernmost point of Europe,
and their longing looks toward Africa
give the keynote to the meeting about
to begin.
