THE DAY OF DAYS.
The Municipal Flection in To-day's
Chief Attraction.
THE LAST TWENTY-FOUR HOURS
Preceding (he Contest is the occasion of a
Great Amonnt of IInetting an Both flldM
of the Political Fenco?Vtctorjr* However*
Seems to Have a Decided J?eaulng
Toward the Republicans?Polls Open at
7 a.m. and Close at 6 p. m.
This is election day. and If the weather
bureau prediction* are verified It will be
a very "cold day."
Polls open at 7 a. m. and. close at 6
p. ni.
Interest In the contest, which Is altogether
along party lines, has become
quite pronounced within the past fortyhour*.
Yesterday the workers of
both parties were hard at work getting
their wires in good working order, and it
is predicted that both parties will 'get
out a biff vote.
The silly effort of the Register to hoodoo
its readers and the public Into the
belief that the election would bo Illegal
through an alleged failure on the part of
City C.'erk Danncnberg to perform his
duty, fell rather flat yesterday. Of
course there w?ia nothing in the publication;
It was merely a poorly constructed
attempt a: sensationalism. In a nutshell
the story was that the election today
will be illegal because the city clerk
did not comply with a law providing that
notice of the election must be printed in
newspapers ten days before the contest.
One of the sections of the state election
law quoted by the Register was Section
30. as follows:
".\t least ten days before an election
t'? fill any public utTlc<. at which the
voters of any county arc entitled to vote,
the clerk of the circuit court of such
county shall cause to be published in two
newspapers, if such there be puidistv-d
within the county, representing; the polical
parties which at the last preceding
general election east tjw largest number
of votes i:i the state, or if there be only
one newspaper published therein, then.
In such newspaper, the nominations for
office certified t-? him and filed in his
office, EXCEPTING NOMINATIONS
FOR OFFICE TO BE FILLED BY THE
VOTERS OF ANY SLB-Dl VISION
LESS THAN A COl'NTY."
It will be noticed that the concluding
provision of he section clearly shows
that the section does not apply t ? municipal
elections, for a city is clearly a subdivision
of a county.
City Clerk Dannenberg consulted Solicitor
Boyce several days ago regarding
this section and that official slated then
that the notice provided for in this section
is not necessary In tnc prescut Instance.
Yesterday, two well known
lawyers were seen by the intelligencer,
and both supported th" stand taken by
Mr. Boy.\ saying there is no doubt that
th? section does not apply to the Wheeling
municipal election.
There are thirty-two precinct.* for
to-day's election and it Is believed that
th? count of the vote will be completed
before 2 o'clock to-morrow mom in?.
Th^ returns will be received at the city
?;lerk's office.

IN THE OIL FIELDS.
The Colli Weather th?i CatiK of an Kutlre
Mupciniloit of Field Work.
From ail part? of ilio soutitw?t>t reports
have been received and they ail
agree that field work wi|l be suspended
until the weather moderates. Many
pumping wells have shut down on ac
count of water lines being frozen up, and
work at drilling wells 1vjc? shut down
from the same cause, and the extreme
hardship that the drilling crews would
have to endure to keep the drill bouticIns:.
A continuance of the kind of
weather experienced for the pxst two
days would soon adjust the difference
between the runs and shipments.
Down in Monroe county the Eastern
Oil Company has drilled In Its test on tlie
Relnhart farm, located (500 foet pouthwrst
of (he well on the Wright farm,
ami will have a fifteen or twenty barrel
pumper. This well shows a little exien?ion
In It direction from previous developments.
Operations in tiie Benwood pool have
fallen off one-third front the present
showing a* compared w.m me same ;nne
IftriL month. In tin? Hebron pool, Tyler
ounly, the decline Is In the name ratio,
and lea.* chance for a revival on account
[ of the pool being more nearly defined.
The outcome of tin- active operations
In the de?*p ?vid territory art* a u nited
with a good deal of Interest. In Wetxel

Their Oyster Sapper was a SncccMfal Affair?The
CoUtMtB*
Last night in the Odd Fellows hall, U. |
?. Grant C?fnp. of Veteran*, srave
an oyster supper and dance. This was
the last of the three entertainments given |
this week by the old soldiers of "Wheeling
and Benwood, to raise funds for the state
encampments to be held in Wheeling in
April, and as expected was the most successful
from a financial standpoint. The
receipts equalled those combined of the
two previous evenings.
The hall was not sufficiently large to
comfortably accommodate the crowds
that thronged there, but it was a good
natured, sociable assemblage, and enjoyment
reigned supreme. The oyster
supper was a feature during the early
part of the evening, and the ladle* in attendance
were kept busy between the
hours of 7 and 9 o'clock. Cak" and ice
cream were dispen.ved In the gallery, and
helped refresh the dancers. Dancing
was kept up until - o'clock this moraine,
and the floor was a scene of continued,
gayety until the last dance oti the programme
was played by Prof. Long.
During the evening the quilt 'made by
Grandmother Holliday was on exhibition
and chances were taken for It. but Jt will
not be.disposed of unless a sufficient sum
is secured. Made by a woman In her
ninety-fifth year, a woman who was a
nurse in the civil war, and after whom
Holllday corps of the Woman's Relief
Corps is called, it possesses a peculiar
historical interest and some day will bo
treasured as an interesting relic. It is
the intention of the old soldiers to give
?n entertainment in West wood's hall, in
the Eighth ward, and one In Kenwood, In
the near future. With the success had
so far, their coming"efforts will doubtleys
meet with tho same rewards. The
state encampments promise to hi th<?
greatest events of a ^Imilnr nature that
have over occurred in West Virginia.
At th- bazaar given by the Woman's
Relief Corps, tho elegant child's dresser
was won by Miss Maggie Miller, of North
Main street. Thirty dollars was realized
on the dresser. The doll was won by
Comrade "Dick" Robertson.

The "Why" of 11.
To the Kditor or Iho Intelllcencer.
SIR:?This morning's Intelligencer
contained a card from "Technic" asking
why our musical societies do not bring
to Wheeling sonic finished artists of
world-wide reputation. The reason they
do not often do so is found, in the fart
that the demand Is not so preying as
"Technic" believes It to ^e. It costs
hundreds of dollars to bring such an attracllon
here, and our musical public Is
so small, so poor, and so devoted to
farce-comedy that it is unsafe to depend
inmn It to !WV till* bills. The nPCItSSJiTV
fund?" mum be advanced or oecured by a
fi-vv pcopl-v who cannot often run ho
great a rink. So much for the situation
In general.

Unless then? is moderate temperature
Immediately the Ohio river at Wheeling |
will be Ice locked within a few hours.
Yesterday afternoon the ice gorged at
V?"S w??n??viii? flKnnf fortv miles
down the river, and if the gorge at that j
point holds, which 1? likely unless there '
Is a rise Jn the river, Jt Is a certainty that j
the river will close a considerable distance
above. It would not bo surprising I
if the river would close at Wheeling this
afternoon or to-night. A closed river is j
rendered mnre probable on account of the j
fact that the river is falling at all of the i
reported polntn.
If the river should close, rivermcn will
watch the river news closely, for a sudden
break-up would mean tremendous
damage to floating property. Wheeling
once had an experience with a break-up
of that character. It was in the winter
of 186S, when live steamboats and the
wharfboat were swept away from the
public landing, the damage reachcd
many thousands.
This year there Is no floating property
at the Wheeling public landing with the
exception of the wharf boar. The .' teamboats
plying in local trades are harbored
in safe places where there wll^be less
danger In the event of a break-up.
It was reputed last night that the river I
had closed ab^ v Steub^nvilie. but no
confirmation of the report could be secured.

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 27.?The river is
falling steadily, the marks on the
wharf showing but 2.7 feet this morning.
The Monongahela Is nearly clo?ed
throughout Its entire length above
Lock No. 4. The pool boats are working
night and day to keep a channel open,
but ate having only indifferent success.
The weather Is to cold that the
ice forms almost a# rapidly as it can
be broken up. It Is important that the
river should be kept open as long as
the water Is high enough to allow the
shipment of flat coal Into the harbor.

WRECK OP WARBEIT HASTIH68,
Tho Brflbh Indian Troop Ship?Many
Ada of Gallantry Recorded.
LONDON, Jan. 27.-A dispatch to the
Dally Telegraph from Port Luis, island
of Maritiua, published io-tf&y, furr.Irhrt
particulars of the wreck of the British
Indian troop ship Warren Hastings,
which was wrecked off the Island of Reunion,
on Thursday, January 14.
The ship, it appears, ran ashore at 2:20
a. m. It was pitch dark, and torrents of
rain were falling. She had on board soidJera
and crew to the number of 1.232
men, in addition to a number of women
and children, the families of the married
mon of the military force. When the
ship struck the troops were ordered to retire
from the upper deck, to which they
had flocked on the first alarm, and to fall
in below. This they did promptly, the
most perfect discipline prevailing, although
the men were fully conscipus of
the clanger which they were in. They
were quietly mustered on the 'tween
decks without confusion or excitement.
Owing t?? the fact that the surf boats
could not be used in landing the troops,
two officers of the Warren Hastings
were lowered from the ship's bow t'? the
rocks, and when it was found that h
landing could be affected'in this way the
disembarkation of the soldiers was comninncpri
nt ? o'clock. Commander Hoi
land hoping it was safe to retain the
women, children And the sick on board
until daylight. But the 3teamship was
soon found to be heeling over s<? rapidly
I that everyone was ordered to the upper
deck, the danger of capsizing being imminent.
| Thereupon Commander Holland orderI
ed the landing of the troops to be stopped
In order that the women, children
and sick persons should be landed immediately.
This order was obeyed with fld|
mlrable discipline. By f? o'clock the
i decks had heeled over to an angle of fifty
I degrees to starboard and the boats were
! all swept away. The good swimmers
I were then permitted to swim ashore, carrying
ropes. By this means many others
were landed and the disembarkation of
all on board was completed by 5:30 a. m.?
I with the loss of only two native servants;
I Many actj of gallantry were recorded.
CPN8UL REGULATIONS.
byllie Govrrumrnt Wlilcll
Will Not lie Itcliihed liy Some.
"WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.?The state
department has jus-t begun the issue of a
1 revised set of regulations for United
States consuls, which was prepared by
Mr. Frank Partridge, formerly solicitor
of the state department under special sppolntment
by the secretary of sta-fe. This
is the lirst revision made of these regulations
since and as the volume has
grown much since that date and many
qualifications have been made to meet
the decisions of the treasury and executive
orders, there was great need for a
general revision to simplify the work.
This has been done so well that It will >
now he possible for consuls to make
themselves acquainted with the rules j
, touching any subject In short order. I
The most important changes In the
rules are those doing away with the ncc:
esslty for verifying oaths i?f exporters to
Invoices, which have been a source of j
great vexation to business men for years |
1 and have served no useful purpose, save ,
ti? swell tho fees of the consuls. Aho in j
the case of notarial-fees the rules have I
been amended so as to make these uniform
and on the scale of fees fixed by j
f"- '?? ruutrjft nf Columbia. This '
scale of prices 1<? generally very moderate,
and Homo of the consuls who have j
been permitted to charge heavy for?s for
this kind of work, will not relltfh the j
change. In the shape of an appendix Is |
given every statute, rutin? and decision j
referred to in the text of the ivork.
