As He is Mentioned for Ap.
pointment as Member OF
Trade Commission.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 23--
The next batch of patronage plums
worth while are five in number and
were provided by the recent session
of Congress when it created the In
terstate Trade Commission. The re-
cipient of three of these plums are to
be Democrats and those of the re-
naming two Republicans. The law
so provides. The president now has
under consideration a number Of
men for these five positions, and it is
understood and generally accepted
here that he will make the appoints
ments in the first week OF next
month.
In this connection it is known to
several persons that prominent West
Virginia official is being considered
for one Of the two places, that must
go to representatives of the minority
party. He is Howard N. Ogden, OF
the West Virginia Public Utilities
Commission, and the member Of that
body who is regarded by the people
Of that state as the one who has
given virility, force and punch to 1t.
His name was. brought to the atten@
tion Of President Wilson several
weeks ago under the most favorable
auspicies. His sponsors were dis
tinguished men Of both parties,
whose character and place in public
life are on such a high plane as to
commend their recommendation to
the most serious consideration OF

and Hearty NoWas Ever He

WASHINGTON D. c.. Nov 23-
Senator Nathan Con- is here. and
hale and hearty. Yet, letters con-
tinue to pour In on him, due tc tho
tainting spell which overcame him
as he was speaking to vast audience
of his neighbors at Clarksburg the
night before the recent election.
There has been a veritable avalanche
OF these letters since the dramatic
episode at Clarksburg ali bearing the
finest expressions of sympathy, the
most touching sentiments of solici-
tude. and the tenderest and most af-
fectionate references 1t can well
be imagined how these countless
messages from the people have
touched the heart of West Virginia s
Tre"test citizen and most eminent
living statesman-yes, and as these
written heart-throbs so plainly show,
-, atlieis .inost beloved son.
1t will be good news to the peo-
pie of the state to know. and to be
assured. that Senator Goff shows no
effects now OF the hard strain that
the arduous work OF the speaking
tour of the state put upon him. He
feels just as we'll as before, he says,
and he certainly looks it. He has
spent most of the time since the ad-
journment of Congress here, slipping
away to New York a time or two on
business. He Will eat Thanksgiving
turkey with his family in Clarks-
burg.

Is Advanced as the Real Cause
of the Recent Mutiny on the
Isle of Man.

LONDON. Nov. 23.-The Manches-
ter Guardian referring to the riotlng
last Thursday in the alien detention
camp ON the isle OF Man in which
ave prisoners were killed and. twelve
wounded says this outbreak was due
not merely to discomfort with the
food and treatment given them but
was part Of a desperate plan Of the
prisoners to escape from the camp
with the ultimate hope Of SELLING a
vessel In the harbor and making
their way to some neutral country.
The dining room OF the camp where
the trouble occurred gives access
through the adjoining kitchen to the
only part Of the camp not protected
by a double circuit of barbed wire.
The prisoners employed in the kitch-
en- were aware of this condition. The
prisoners on Wednesday went on a
hunger strike. This rapidly develop
ed into, an angry demonstration
against England. The prisoner COM
mandant succeeded in uuieting the
disturbance but not before the Union
Jack had been torn down.
The mutiny began, Thursday. the
signal for the outbreak being the
throwing Of q chair through win
dow. The prisoners instead of MAX
ing for the main doors leading from
the dining hall. all rushed toward the
kitchen doors. Only six soldiers

see the Mexican flag floating over the
ancient fortress of San Juan and the
American troopers we'll on their way
homeward across the gulf
General Funston has instructions
to turn the city over to none OF the
Mexican factions and thereby avoid
what might be construed as recog-
nition of one of them. His orders
simply are to bring his troops away
and leave the city to which ever fac
ton takes possession.
Carranza's commander, Aguilar, is
nearest but Carranza troops which
have swerved in their allegiance to
Villa are not far distant. There have
been some evidences that Carranza
intended to move his capital to Vera
Cruz. The American force embarked
at Vera Cruz today numbers about
5000 men.

DEMOCRATS nor
AWARE or VISIT
But Vice President Of United
States is Entertained in
Clarksburg by Friend.

Local Democrats were not aware
that distinguished member of their
party paid a brief visit to Clarksburg
Sunday and as consequence he did
not receive the reception that is
usual on such occasions. The visitor
was the vice president of the United
States. Thomas r. Marshall, who.
accompanied by Mrs. Marshall, was
on the way from Morgantown, where
he delivered an address Saturday
night before the Young Mems Chris
tian Association OF that city, to
Bowling Green, KY, where he was
scheduled for another speaking en-
gaement.
The vice president and Mrs. Mar
shall were here for only a short
time. their stay being made necessary
by the fact that they had to change
from the Morgantown train to tho
westbound through train going, to
Cincinnati They were met at the
station, however, by Mr.. Marshall's
old friend and lodge brother. George
b. Sayre. of the Hotel Gore. who en-
tertained them at breakfast at that
place and accompanied them back to
the train.
