CURTIN TO VOTE
FOR ROOSEVELT
Reiterates His First Declara-
ton to Disobey Party
Instructions.

r PARKERSBURG, June 10-Gen.
g. W. Curtin. of Sutton, one of tthe
district delegates from West Virginia
to the Republican National conven-
tion at Chicago, who recently an
nounced that he would bolt the in
structions to vote for Taft, but would
vote for Roosevelt for the nominee
for the presidency, was in the city
Tuesday on business.
Gen. Curtin was in the lobby of the
Chancellor Tuesday evening, sur
rounded by party of friends, and
naturally the conversation drifted
around to politics Then allusion
was made to his announcement that
he would bolt instructions and vote
for Roosevelt, nd he was questioned
whether he had changed his mind in
this respect since the President had
writtn to a West Virginia admfrer
that no friend of his would vote for
him in the convention. General Cur
tin replied that he had not changed
his mind in the matter, as he made
no pretention of being a friend of
Roosevelt's; that friendship did not
enter into the matter, and that 1t
was purely matter of business with
him, as he is anxious to see Roose-
yelt renominated for the reason that
he is the strongest man in the Re-
publican party.

COAL MINER

At LYNCH
BY a Fall of Slate While He is
Driving on Coal
Cars.
MAN IS ! BURIED ALIVE
So Badly Crushed When Pulled

Few Minutes.
MAN IS ! BURIED ALIVE

In the burial ground on the Danny
Wagner farm near Lynch Thursday
afternoon, the remains of Edward
Cane, who was killed by 1 fall of
slate in the Lynch mine Wednesday
afternoon, were laid to their last rest
Cain was driving coal car into
the mine when the fall struck him.
He was returning into the mine with
an empty car and when he had pro-
ceeded about 100 feet from the mine
entrance a mass of slate fell upon
him from the roof. He was buried
under the slate in the bottom of the
car. When mine workers, ran to
him they found him buried under the
slate with the exception of his feet
which stuck out on each side of the
car. They pulled him out alive, but
he was crushed SO badly that he lived
but few minutes.
Coroner w. p. Camp was summon
ed to the scene but after making an
investigation of the mans death he
decided an inquest unnecessary and
turned the body over to the family.
Mr.. Cane was $3 years old and
leaves a wife and two children. He
had been employed at the mine for
six years.

G. O. D. CASES ARE UP

BLAND CLAIMS
ENOUGH VOTES
To Nominate Him for Sheriff
and Says He Has 1t
cinched.

With the close of the campaign
among the Democratic candidates for
delegates on the eve of the district
conventions. Frank G. Bland, the can
didate of the big bosses of the Demo-
cratic party for sheriff, feels very
confident and he does not hesitate to
declare that he has the nomination
for. sheriff cinched and is carrying
1t around in his vest pocket.
In a brief interview this morning
Mr.. Bland stated TO the Telegram:
II will be the nominee for sher-
iff.".
How about Perry williams2' was
asked.
'oh, he will be close second"
While Mr.. Bland did not tell the
Telegram directly, yet it is stated on
good authority, that he believes he
has Francis beaten mile. The same
authority also says that BANDS
friends regard the race so close be-
tween Bland and Francis that the
Bland forces will see to 1t that Will
liams does not get even compli-
mentary vote, but their efforts may
not entirely succeed in this.
Elliott is not taken into considera-
ton by them and they have appar-
emily overlooked the fact that he will
most likely come into the convention
with some delegates, which both sides
will strive hard to get away from him
in a pinch.

Davis Hotel company's Appli-
cation for Mandatory In
junction Argued.
TO BE DECIDED SATURDAY
Big Land Suit for Injunction is
Dismissed by the
Court.

AT the morning session of the
United States circuit court here
Thursday arguments were heard by
Judge Nathan Goff ON the application
OF the Davis Hotel Company, of this
city, for a temporary mandatory in
unction, in the nature of intervention
In the case of the Crescent Liquor
Company against Thomas c. Platt
and the United States Express Com
pany, of New York, to compel the
express company to receive and ship
9. o. ID. packages. AS is remember
ed a year or more ago such an in
junction was awarded to the Crescent
Liquor Company by Judge Goff in the
case, but because of further action
not being taken to decide whether 1t
should be permanent, the case was
about to be dropped until the applica-
ton was made few weeks ago by
the Davis Hotel Company.
A similar suit against Henry NJ.
Sanford, as president, and Adams
Express Company, was before the
conrt, and Sanford having died since
the suit was brought and Levi C.
Weir, OF Ohio, having succeeded to
ihe presidency of the express COM
Spany, 1t was ordered that he be sub
stituted for Sanford as a party de-
fendant, and June % was set as the
date for the defendants to show cause
why the relief prayed for should not
be granted.
Judge ,Goff refused the injunction
asked for in the case of w. H.
Richardson ct al. against John c..
Maken and Charles Catlett, trustees,
ct al, and dismissed the bill. In
this case Richardson ct al. asked that
deere entered by Judge A. G. Day
ton in the equity cause of j. c..
Maken ct al. against frankie Cox ct
all, annulling deeds and making title
to 10000 acres of land in Wyoming
county, be set Jide and the defend
ants restrained from enforcing its
execution. Judge 'Goff decided that
Judge Dayton had jurisdiction and
refused to grant the injunction.
A decree was entered transferring
the merchandise business of the
Meriden Supply Company to S. l..
lo'Neil. receiver, in the cause of AL
bert Thompson against the Philippi
Golfers Company.
AT the afternoon session the equity
case of Floyd A. Toter against C. e.
r.. Darr ct al. transferred from the
Barbour county circuit court, came
up.
The last named suit involves de-
iieiency of 1900 acres of coal lands
IN a tenthousand acre sale and the
purchase price therefor.
Judge Goff will pass on the Davis
Hotel Company case against the
United States Express Company Sat
urday morning.
