FORMER ELKINS
MAN ENDS LIFE

Harry c. Cummings, Form

BALTIMORE. Md, Dec. 30.-Harry
G. Cummings, aged 32, who until year
ago was prominent in insurance circles
in Martinsburg and EllSins, w. Va, COM
mitted suicide at his home here early
Sunday morning
He arose about o'clock and while he
was dressing awoke his wife. When she
asked what he was doing, Cummings
said he had been figuring on his accounts.
Then he called to her to look at him. and
as she did so, he pointed pistol to her
head and blew out his brains, dying in
stantly.
Cummings has been conducting gro
Gerry store on Oak street and lived over
the store. For SONS tine he had been
worring over bis financial matters. The

National Consolidated Coal Co.
Organized With Head Offices in Belingion-
a New Railroad Necessary.

The National Consolidated Coal Com
pany, composed Of Eastern capital, has
been chartered under the laws OF West
Virginia with 100000 capital, and
with general offices at BeIington, w. Va.
TIE company is believed to be preparing
to operate several new mines in West Vir-
ginia fields along the Western Maryland
railroad. This announcement together
with many others from Eastern Penn
sylvanIa, indicates an unusually active
period of development in the coming
demand which is absorbing all the sur
plus tonnage that for 80 long kept coal
prices down to an unsatisfactory basis. A
further interesting development OF the
past week has been the announcement OF
the plan to consolidate leading Southern
coal companies under the name Of the
Consolidated Coal Company, with COM
bined capital OF from $12, 900, 900 to $751;
100000. Included IN this meyer there is
understood to be the Chattanooga Steel &
Coal Company and the Durham Coal Il
Iron Company. The plans, however,
have not been fully completed.
1t has been runored around here for
the last few weeks that new coal COM
pany was under organization, but moth
ing definite could be had until this week.
AS the plans have not yet been made
known, the supposltion is that another
railroad will be built into Belington from
the north; perhaps will come in over the
Belington & Northern Railroad which is
already built down the river to the Val
ley mines distance of four miles, but
on the other hand it is known that the
largest field Of coal lies north of the city,
SO logical point for railroad would be
thru this field.
1t has been observed for come time
that new coal company would tneceasa-
rily be the best step to develope the large
field of coal in and around Belington, 80
it seems evident that this has come to
pass. Early activities are expected in
the way of new openings.

GOMpERS TO STAND BY
IRON WORKERS UNION.


NEW YORK, Dec 30.-Samual Com
pers, president of the American Fedora
ton Of Labor, was quoted to-day as say
ing he will do everything in his power to
stand by and strengthen the Interna-
tional Association of Structural Bridge
and Iron Workers.
81 hope the verdict will be proved I'M
just" said Mr.. Gompers, "but whether
just or unjust, the bridge and iron work
ers' organization will be continued as an
efficient union. These trades are con-
trolled by tremendous masses Of corporate
wealth. The condition of the workers, il
there was no cohesion, mo unity, no union,
would be TOO frightful to contemplate.

WILSON DISCUSSES
SENATE SENATE OOI OUTLOOK COX
VititOrs Tell Him Democrats May Increase
Scant Majority In That Body.

TRENTON, Dec. President ELECT
Wilson to-day manifested keen interest
in the possibility that the present scant
majority which the Democrats are cal
culated to have in the United States Sem
ate might be comfortably increased when
the Legislatures Of several States convene
next month.
Mr.. Wilson conferred during the dav
at the State house here with j. Hamil-
ton Lewis, Of Illinois, choice Of the Dem
ocratic primaries in that State for United
States Senator, and Senator Luke Lea, OF
Tennessee, on the Senatorial situation,
and it is understood that he will be in
fromed in the near future by other Dem
ocratic leaders in Congress Of what may
be expected from the Legislatures in
their respective States.
May Get Two in Illinois.
Mr.. Lewis told Mr. Wilson that there
was good chance of getting two DEM
ocratic Senators from illinois, informing
him that, while the newly-elected Pro-
gressIves held the balance OF power he
IL ought there were men public-spirited
enough among them to support the Dem
ocratic choices on the theory that III
inois by popular vote had put itself on
record for Wilson administration.
Mr.. Lewis suggested to the President
elect that it might be even "openly I'M.
derstood that patriotic men who would
give him the support of two Senators
would be regarded as worthy Of proper
reward and recognition in the distribu-
ton of minority patronage.
Recommend Men for Cabinet
Senator Chamberlain, of Oregon, and
Williams, Of Mississippi, in their talks
with the Governor today, urged the ap-
pointment to the Cabinet of men from
their respective States.
Representative Underwood is the prin-
cipal visitor on the Governors list to-
morrow
Governor Wilson said his appetite had
returned and that he had recovered from
his attack of grip.

China's New Writing System.

fhe fact that China is about to adopt a
new alphabet is one more evidence that
the people are well on the road toward
progress. The system there, many CEN
turtles old, makes it necessary for the stu
dent to memorize at last eight thousand
kilograms before he can even begin the
pursuit of knowledge
A new alphabet has been devised by a
committee of the most learned Cinnamon,
an alphabet which, through its various
combinations, will represent every sound
in the Chinese tongue. 1t consists Of
forty-two characters twenty-three being
vowels, and nineteen consonants.
"Of the vowels four are taken from the
Greek, four from Russian, five from Lat
in and one from Chinese OF the nine re-
naming vowels, two are modified or
elongated signs, and seven are reversed
kilograms.
"Of the consonants fourteen are from
Latin. three from Russian, and two from
the Greek. With these it is possible to
write all the words used in the vulgar
tongue in any part of China.
s'The innovation has been received with
enthusiasm, especially in the southern
provinces, and it is believed it will be in
general official use by the end of the
year

ORDER SIMPLIFIES
FEDERAL BUSINESS
Secretary MacVeagh Makes Sweeping
Change In Transactions With Treasury.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Secretary
MacVeagh to-day ordered revolutionary
change IN the business methods of the
Treasury Department in handling the in
come and expenditures OF the Federal
Government which is expected to lessen
interference by the Treasury with The
fiscal operations Of the country, make
the Government deposits in United States
deposits ries more active and inure to the
benefits of the public by obviating the
payment Of exchange on Government
checks.
Effective February /, the accounts of
the Federal disbursing officers will be
placed with the Treasurer OF the United
States and all disbursing officers checks
drawn on that official may be casled by
any national bank designated as a United
States depositary. Banks making such
payments may Immediately replenieh
the specified account from Federal GUS
toms or internal revenue receipts daily
deposited. The banks thus will forward
to the sub-treasuries only the excess Of
receipts over expenditures. If the ex-
penditures are greater than the receipts
the suh-treasuries will supply the de-
ficiency.
In the manner, it is explained, much Of
the Governments business will be trans
acted without the actual use of currency.
1t will be an extension Of the clearing
house principle to the Government and
the. banks will check expenditures against
receipts and then make their settle
ment with the treasury.
