Part Second 5 CBXTS A COPY TO BUY TBE WHEELING Railroad Men Think the Wabash Is Moving That Way. BALTIMORE OHIO AFTER IT Stories Are Afloat Concerning the Line Which. Should fney Be True. Are Of Interest to Coshocton. the Wheeling Lake Erie "railway purchased the Cleveland, i Canton Southern, borrowed a lot of money and by its actions expressed its determination to amount to something in the railroad were many who believed the scheme was not all being carried out.

Stories afloat in Cleveland and Chicago show they were not mistaken, and if they be true Coshocton will have a mighty "competitor for the business now so largely taken by the Pennsyl vania company. Recently it was announced that a railroad, a short cut line, would be built from Wheeling to tbe Pennsylvania coke fields. Next came the story that the Wabasb was backing the Wheeling and the Wheeling was interested in the new line. Railroad men at once said the Wabash was thus seeking an entrance into the coal country of West Alrgima. The rumor is rather picturesque, but it is given the greatest credence by many well posted railroad men.

says a leading railroad editor. The story is even made to be of greater extent, It is now said that the Wabash intends to build a line from Toledo to Montpelier. Michigan, to con- i nect this territory with the Chicago line, giving through connections from the West Virginia fields to that territory. These reports corner violently in conflict with some facts in the case-It is known that the Wheeling Bridge and Terminal company's property is own- el jointly by tbe Wheeling and the O. Other events of late have shown these loads to be close tp- making it more than likely that in case the Wheeling makes an alliance it will be with the B.

O. When this phase of the question is brought out the railroad men are inclined to complicate the matters still further, and predict that the end of the matter will be a combination of the Wheeling and the B. O- and the two absorbing the Uniontown line. Then a close alliance will be i formed between the Wabash and tbe B. O-.

by which the former secnres 1 its desired entrance into the eastern tield. To many this sort of a combination seems incongruous, and they are inclined to the belief that if the B. O. gets tbe Wheeling, the Wa. bash will stay out of the terntory.and also if it is at all possible the Wabash will secure the Wheeling and will thus enter vigorously into the eastern OosHOCTON AGE.

Quinlan had been employed at the rolling mill as watchman during the shut down, and received his pay Saturday afternoon. He reported for work at the usual hoar, but later informed Joseph Sells, night fireman, that he had forgotten his pipe and tobacco and was going after them; He left the mill soon afterward, and that was the last seen of him aiive. About o'c'ock Floyd West, a boy residing in the upper part of the city, was walking along the Wheeling tiacks when he saw the body of a man lying beside the ties. He at once gave the alarm an! a crowd collected- Word was sent to the city, and Officer Courtright and Acting Coroner J. B.

Manner hastened to the place. The body was pBaced on a stretcher and taken to the home of the unfortunate man at 948 Chestnut street. Examination brought out the belief that he bad been instantly killed- right leg was broken, there was a small cut on his forehead and the righto- side and back of his skull was crashed in. the scalp being torn loose ffor several inches. His face was not marked, and he seemed to have been tbrowu off the ends of the ties, although the opinion was He Will Have Charge of Pan Handle Men From Steubemille to Columbus.

Officer Moore, who has been stationed here for five months by the Pan Handle company, received notification Monday of his promotion to a lieutenancy with headquarters in Dennison- He will have charge of the men between Steubenville and Columbus, and will receive an increased salary. W. C- Magner, an officer of the company who has been stationed at Zanesville, has been ordered here for duty. During his ttay on this part of the road Officer Moore made olarrests and into the treasuries of the towns he visited. He was instrumental in capturing the thief who robbed the Watson bouse in cut down the proportion of train riders.

COMING HOME. William Wright Will Become a Resident of Coshocton. William Wright, who was for a number of years in the shoe business in this place, but left here to reside in Arkansas City, has decided to again make Coshocton his home. Mr. Wright has been in the employ of the Tuscarora Advertising company for some time as traveling salesman, making the Kansas town his headquarters- His daughter, who still has many friends in Coshocton, will with her husband also move to the city.

A Bie Vote and a Lively Time From Start to Finish.

For the first time in a dozen years a mayor in Coshocton succeeds himself, but hard work was required for the friends of G. W. Cassingham to put him in office. There were surprises in the election, perhaps more than the usual number, and when the parties counted their" gains after the result was known the Republicans were found to havegained some of the ground lost two years ago. Two members of council, the treasurer, water works trustee, township clerk and less important offices "was their result of the battle, while the Democrats elected the head of the ticket, one councilman, marshal, clerk, and bad winners in the township.

The campaign was one of bard work, and while much interest was manifested in the efforts of the friends of G. S. Tredway and Mayor Cassingham there were other battles equally as bard fought for positions of less im-- portance. For council Fred Timmons only won by three ballots overJfr. McNaughton.

Officer John Maple surprised even his while only 33 votes intervened between Bert Knode and the clerkship which again falls to Fred Wagner. -John Finnell ran like a race horse for commissioner, and J. E. Glass defeated W. B.

Patterson for re-election as treasurer. In the township John Williams easily won over Patrick Dunn for clerk. There being no Republican candidate for members of the board of education J- W. Cassingham and W. S.

Ilutchinson got the vote. Many of these tickets were thrown out because tbe usual mark appeared under the Republican eagle even though no names were written or printed below. Tbe vote cast was large, and it was almost midnight before it bad been counted. In fact the force in the Third had not wound up their work at that hour.
