F his The council committee on railways din met last night, with Chairman Bachman In the chair, and Councilman wa Bradbury. Schmidt, Knoke, Klndelberger and McMechen present. Others thc there were Councilman William Mc- I)ai Cormlck, who is chairman of the com- Mer mlttee on ordinances, and Beckett; a8s City Solicitor Nesbltt; Messrs. B. S. Allison and Sam O. Boyce, representing the Wheeling Bdilway Company, and prl Mr. John J. Conlff, representing the n^f People's Railway Company. The re- ^ suit was the recommendation favor- " c ably to council of the ordinance grant- c ?ka OnAnla'a Pnllwnv Pnmnftnv a iUQ ?u? * CU|>IV U a , franchise to operate an electric street on railway line on certain streets of the city from Jonathan's ravine to Forty eighth street, at the southern limit of on< the city. ur? Unusual interest was taken for the reason that the People's ordinance, ( which had been in the hands of the ? committee on ordinances, had been ne shifted to the committee on railways by act of council Tuesday night This action gave offense to members of the ve| former committee, and especially to Its chairman, Mr. McCormlck, who was r not loath to express his views of the c matter in vigorous language. As vlgoroUB a rejoinder came from the representative of the People's company, or Mr. Conlff, and the situation was de- 80C cidedly acute at one or two stages. mo The ordinance provides for a route through the city north and south. In ^ the llrst ordinance submitted by this c^c company, it was proposed to have the Co tracks In the central portion of the city r,yl along Chapllne street, and there was W1 to have been a bridge at Chapllne across Wheeling creek. In the ordi- cas nance submitted to the railways com- wo mlttee, the route is changed, and is me down Market street, with tracks paral- ma leling these of the Wheeling Railway 1 company from uieventn 10 xwenuem streets. North of Twentietn street it is "ia a single track system, but south of jjj Twentieth there is a South Side loop f{u mostly over streets that ure not occu- wa plod by the Wheeling company. ? Mr. CoiiIITk Statement. \ir[ The committee was called to order shortly ' after S o'clock. Mr. Coniff wo 'made a prefatory statement on behalf n(^ of his company. The ordinance, he rcs said, is a revision of one previously otl submitted to the committee on ordi- 3 nances, and which was referred to the city solicitor. The present ordinance j had been framed to meet the sugges- cor tions of the solicitor, and embodies all hai of them, he claimed. The company ^ desired to obtain a franchise over 8tr the route specified in the ordinance, wa and which was better ilustrated by a wo map which members of the committee co.r, had just examined. The company do- ref sired some action taken on its applica- act tion, and he believed that the commit- P'j' tee on railways was the proper one to f go to, this being entirely a railway mn project The suggestions of the solid- cits . n tor, ne saia, naa occn ior me ueneut 01 the company as well as for the city. JJJ Ho urged action at once, so council ha< would be enabled to pass on the appli- Pe ' CILtlon- hlr Mr. B. S. Allison, representing the pr( Wheeling Railway Company, next ad- noi dressed the committee. In the after- tec noon he had made an attempt to In- jjjj spect the ordinance and the map, but .! had been unable to see them until Just agi before the committee met, when there ^ was no opportunity to do more than ? glance over them. The Wheeling Railway Company, he suld, 'Is Interested In ma what Is proposed, and hehppedthecom- '' mittee would act considerately and ? give all who are interested an opportunity to appear and give expression to cor their views. He would ask that action 3 be''deferred until not only the Wheellug Railway Company, but all others poj Interested, may have a chance to be dir heard before the committee. The at- nip torneys of the Wheeling Railway Com- *lr pany, he said, are not the officials best wc qualified to explain where possibly the tui desires of the People's company may to conflict with the rights of his company, and until these officers can be heard Int there should bo no decisive action by ? the committee. He would offer no ?r captious objection, but suggested that ol); the committee adjourn until those In- n^', terested may have the opportunity to ty frame their possible objections. Councilman ICIndelberger Inquired 3 what the Wheeling Railway Company nr( had to do with the matter In hand. "It hns nothing to do with this committee i or with this franrhise, and It now has r<>) more from the city than It ought to 1,01 have received," added the Third ward ^ man. B0I f Mr. Allison rejoined that his com- on pany and many others nre Interested. Htr "What Is your Interest?" asked Mr. Con Iff. hoi Mr. Allison responded that the ere Wheeling was Interested especially at ^ points where the new company would cross Its line, and It might be that hukg'Htlons could be made that would facilitate crossings. "Isn't It a fact that you are only Interested to the point of desiring to avoid competition?" usked Mr. Conlff. IntiniatIon Denied. This intimation was vigorously denied by Mr. Allison, and he added that he and all others have a right to bo k ird. Of course hit company did not fc competition, but It was not on it point they would come before the nmlttee If (riven the opportunity. Icials of his company might explain v It would be better for the Interests the city not to have parallel tracks a certain street or streets. For innce it has always been contended Lt there is not sufficient room on rket street for more than one track, hoped the ordinance would not be ihed through without all sides of the Mtlon being heard. Ir. S. O. Boyce, representing the leeling Hallway Company and dtlis, objected to immediate action. He itended that Mr. Conlff was wrong stating that the railways committee the one before which this ordinance nes properly. He had had some ex ience In municipal affairs, and he lerted that lt should have remained :h the committee on ordinances. In tters where a route only is in quesn, the committee on railways should consulted, but In the framing and islderatlon of an ordinance (as in i present case) the committee on orlances Is the proper one. He never aw of a franchise being referred ,to i committee on railways. 'roceedlng, Mr. Boyce entered Into a tory of the manner in which this orance was transferred from the comttee on ordinances to that on rallys. There are other Interests besides isc of -the Wheeling Railway Comly; those of the people you repre li, Hum iur. xwyvc. huvcbuihb, no icrted that the new company's cks would parallel those of the jeeling for eleven squares on the nclpal street of the city. The buslis men along this thoroughfare have t right to object, and the committee mid recognize this. With one track re are accidents and collisions, and ; It Is proposed to place two tracks a street that can accommodate but . Council would never hear of the leellng company having more than i track on Market street; now two >contemplated. Ir. Conlff said Mr. Allison was eviitly not in touch with the situation the last three months. The Wheelf company, he asserted, has been ird from every day of this period in s matter. That company had been y industrious and active to prevent f action on the People's franchise orlance. Now, the first time when ire has been any prospect for the plication being acted upon, the leellng company comes in and asks information, which it could have ured at any time during the three nths. A Lively Tilt. Lt this point there was a lively oxtnge of compliments between Messrs. niff and McCormick, the latter doing Mr. Conlff's statement that the leeling company could have secured ormatioa. Air. Coniff remarked sar itically that he hadn't suspected he uld find Mr. McCormick at this eting when council had tuken the tter out of his committee's hands. 'his brought Mr. McCormlck to his t with the assertion thut the chair.11 of the second branch had decided i matter was referred to the railyz committee, when as a matter of it the branch had not voted that y. Ir. Kindelberger arose to remark it he was in the chair of the second inch at the time. I never before saw such a piece of rk." responded Mr. McCormlck. ir. McCormlck, said Mr. Couiff,would : be so sensitive if he were only repenting his committee and not some ler interest. Ir. Allison?He ought to feel sore; j have been saying that he was ownby the Wheeling Railway Company, dr. Coniff arose and state*] that his npany had never sought undue ste. The main reason his company lid not secure action by the ordlnce committee was that ho had ong proof that the Wheeling Rail y Company had representatives Who nl/? vr.ta nn his ordinance in thti nmltte? on ordinances. Then we went to council seeking erence to n committee that would t fair and square. I believe the apcatlon Is now In the hands of a comttee that will consider the matter isclentlously, and whatever action iy be taken K will be an honest con,slon." Ir. McCormlck arose and appealed to mbers of the railways committee ;sent to support his claim that there J been no unfair treatment of the ople's company by the committee on Ilnnnees. Mr. Schmidt supported n with the reply that he had been sent at every meeting and had seen thing unfair; Mr. 13achman admlt1 that he had been present at all t one meeting, and that he himself (1 made all or most of the motions. 'Did I say whether I was in favor or ninst the ordinance?" No." admitted Mr. Bachman. Did I take part in the discussion?" 'No." 'Haven't I acted in an honorable inner?" Yes." 'Mr. Coniff," said Mr. McCormlck. 3U are misrepresenting when you say urn Interested In anything but the nmlttee on ordinances." ilr. Allison again addressed the comttee and said not only had the heeling Railway officials had no oprtunlty to look Into the People's orlance, but that they had been busy rht and day with another matter?a Ike with which the public Is well acalnted. "This Is the first chance have had, and I ask that an opporilty be given our officers to look Inthis mntter before action Is taken." ,1 r. KIndelberger?You had a chance icn It was before the ordinances comttee. dr. McCormlck?Oh. whnt's the use saying that? We know what your |ect Is." dr. Knoke?Let's Ret down to busiss. It'll be time for breakfast pretKoon, If we don't hurry up. The Ordinance Head, dr. Klndelberger's motion that the llnance be rend was cnrrled. This :upled nearly an hour, the ordinance ng of great length.

Pi Recommended Favorably. p, At the conclusion of the reading of ti the ordinance, Mr. Kindelberger moved tl that It be recommendei to council fav- 13 orably. Mr. Boyce?The city solicitor says he w has not even examined the ordinance. I pi suggest that he examine it llrst. cr Mr. Kindelberger?He can get It from tl: the ordinance committee later. al Mr. Nesbltt, the city solicitor, arose h< and stated that Mr. Boyce had not ft quoted hlin with exact correctness. He la had said that he had not officially examined the ordinance. The first ordl- pi nance had been referred to him, nnd he m had made so many suggestions that it it had been sent back to the company for fr another draft. Two weeks later a rep- w resentatlvs or tne company nan nanaeu h< him a copy. Thin he had looked*.over, tt but he had not passed on it. Mr. Schmidt?Are your recommenda- ni tlons In the ordinance. in Mr. Nesbltt?Some are and some are ni not, and some are not In a form that I Ui like. fr At this point Mr. McCormick entered si another objection, and said the entire ai proceeding was Irregular. ol Mr. Allison again asked that people ei interested be given an opportunity to fo express their objections. A motion to tl: recommend favorably gave no such opportunity. cc Mr. Kindelberger rejoined that the ai Wheeling Hallway Company had no m rights In this matter, and If a way ci could be found he would like to see the tl Wheeling Hallway Company's fran- cs chls?> forfaited. la Mr. Bradbury moved to postpone fur- u< ther consideration for one week, in or- ol der to give all persons desiring to be y< heard the opportunity. cr The motion was lost on the following hi vote: hi Aye?Schmidt, Bradbury. hi No?McMechen, Knoke.

It has been the time-honored custom I f the managers of circuses to make lelr portraits their trade-mark. Their ices are to be seen upon every poster, ill, courier, programme, book, ticket, ad even upon the stationary used in lelr private correspondence. Where,'er their names have appeured upon V/U lelr contracts, or anywhere else, there ere to be seen their counterfeit pre ntments. So It has been, and Is toly, that the faces of such showmen i P. T. Barnum, James A. Bailey, dam Forepaugh, Peter Sells, Lewis ;lls, W. F. Cody, (Buffalo Bill), Nate ilsbury and others, are oftener seen tan the portraits of Washington, Lln>ln or Grant. Indeed it has been said print very often that the best known ice in this country was that of Adam f orepaugh. His face was better known tan that of any other, man because his = iow has been exhibiting in every state tid territory of the union for about ilrty years, and he was himself to be op ten at the front door of his established by all the thousands of persons ho annually visited his show, as well Ye s his portrait upon every piece of his case Ivertlsing matter. g All this, besides being prefatory, f? oUn ?Ua nnvoltv fnnnr) bill I I VI'll LU cl|i|luaoiiic Mlb UVTWV i a circus manager who has never had ing is portrait printed. There is such a or(jei imager, and he is by no means an ob- . ;ure one. In fact he is one of the most a?ai rominent men now in the show busl- suits ?sh. That manager is W W. Cole, the poini irtner of James A. Bailey and Peter an(1 iid Lewis Sells in the Adam Fore- na^j iiugh and Sells Brothers' Consolida- Mm( on, and is also Mr. Bailey's partner in who le direction of the tours of Buffalo comi Ill's Wild West. ln tj For many years the W.

He operated chiefly through <j?h le west and south and made occasion- tj,e , tours through the eastern states, and 0( tj, ? also made un extraordinary success- gtrnj d tour through Australia and the is- njnei nfls of the Pacific. Mr. Cole has never had his portrait rlnted upon any of his advertising alter in any shape or form. Indeed, ,-'a is nald thai he has never been In was on* of a camera but once, and that brld( as in Australia.
