The B. & O. Deal,
The semi-official confirmation of the
report original>y published in Chicago,
to the effect that a wealthy Chicago
syndicate has obtained a large interest
in the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, a controlling
interest, In fact, leaves no doubt
of its truth, although there are
conflicting repom concerning the
purpose and the details of the
(deal. One report, published by a
Chicago paper, alleges that the object Is
to make the Baltimore & Ohio a link
in a transcontinental line, the road
joining the Great Northern through a
connection by some other line. "We presume
this grows out of the report, in
circulation some time since, of & projected
grand trunk line from ocean to ocean,
and to be controlled by wtatern capital.
This story Is denied, however, by Philip
D. Armour, one of the purchasers of the
road, and James J. Hill, president of the
Great Northern, who, it is stated, Is to
have a hand in the reorganization, being
one of those furnishing the capital
for the deal.
wnaievcr me pun.- w. mwu ?. v
apparently gained control of the Baltimore
& Ohio, whether th-. scheme 1b the
pne Just referred to, or whether the capital
IdLs of Chicago have simply pought
the road as an Investment and with the
Intention, as they declare ot improving
the system, and bringing It to a
paying basis, the opinion is general
' that the financial affairs of the road
jrlUl be In safe hands, whlcu will be
tmlnently satisfactory to Its friends. No
?et of men could engage in such an
undertaking whose names could carry
p, better guarantee of success than those
Connected with the deal. Armour,
Field, Ream and Hill are all men who
inspire confidence in every enterprise
qrtth which they connect themselves.
The present receivers fit the Baltimore
Be. Ohio have accomplished wonders considering
the bad shape they found the
affairs of the road In when they took
am & result of many years of bad
management. And are entitled to much
crcdlt. The million* spent on Improvement*
by the receivers, however. hav?>
been we 11 placed, and the safety and
equipment have been vastly Improved.
Whatever 1ft In the future under
changed conditions and management
pf the Baltimore & Ohio, It I* more than
probable It will be In the line of greater
prosperity, which means nv cr for the
commercial Interests alt uiotig the road.

A Yellow Sensation.
K case of yellow Journal detective
work, and one which serves to illustrate 1
the very worst features of the type of I
sensational newspaper methods which j
Is doing #0 much to bring discredit upon 1
the profession in this country, nnd to |
corrupt the public tnste for news, is 1
afforded by tho reappearance of Marlon
Oroet Perkins nt her homo In MlduiebnT>,
Mars., Just In time to *top the
burial of oomc dismembered remains
that hud been "positively Identified" ns
her own.
The public Is familiar with the mystery
of the finding of the remain* of a 1
murdered girl nt Bridgeport, Conn. The
parent* of Miss Perkins, who had disappeared
with a >'oung man of the community,
believed it was a ease of elopement,
and that she would return home. I
But tho New York yellow press was still I
doing business at the old stand. The re- i
mains found at Bridgeport, when exam- j
ined, ronemblcd somewhat the missing
Miss Perkins. I
One of tho yellow sheets, after having
the teeth of the latter described to It, |
noted a resemblance of fholr formation
lo those In the severed head of the I
murdored woman, anrl published, I
a "chart" of them. Finally, the friends
of WLss Perkins thought they found
enough resemblance In the teeth and
other feature*, and the conclusion iva?
reachcd that she had bueu murdered j
ad her body dismembered to prevent ]
identification asd hide tile evidence or
another crime.
The yellow paper came again on the
scene, malting traffic or Ita publication
01 the "chart." which It declared waa
a piece ot newspaper enterprise which
led to the unravelling of the mystery.
That waa not all. In thle connection
the yellow ahcet published many details
undt to be printed In a reputable
newspaper, tracing the disappearance oJ
the girl and her lover, and tending to
how him to be Implicated In her
death, and Involving another woman.
This publication was on Saturday morn
Ing, the day on which the runerai eer- vices
over the supposed remains of Miss
Perkins were to occur. Shortly before
the hour fixed, a train arrived In Middleboro,
bearing Miss Perkins, now
Mrs. Bourne, accompanied by her husband,
upon whom the yellow journal
had, through Its rare enterprise, fixed,
in part at least, the crime of having
murdered her. Both were as well and
happy as a runaway bride and groom
could be .and were astounded to learn
that their temporary absence had caused
so much mystery and grief.
As for the body supposed to be that
of Miss Perkins is still the subject of
much mystery, and the yellow papers
have an opportunity to do 6ome more
fine detective work and harrow the feelings
of some other parents by their sensational
discoveries,
Th? Rtsconsibllfrv.
The defense which Surgeon General
Sternberg makes of the conduct of the
medical department of the Army Is Interesting
at this time, when that department
ot the military service Is under
lire as a result of the sensational
publications and the wildly exaggerated
statements that have been made.
The surgeon general deals with the
matter frankly, and clearly shows that
many newspaper articles have been
based upon a misapprehension of the
responsibility of the head of the department.
Incidentally, It may be recalled
that some time since he asked
for an Investigation, in order that the
responsibility for whatever causes for
complaint there were might be fixed,
and that the medical department Is In- c
eluded in the Hat of branches of the
service which the President proposes to
Inquire Into. I
It appear* that the surgeon general t
himself Is nnt directly responsible for I
field work In the armies. There Is a
chief surgeon for each army corps, who t
is only responsible to the commanding <
general, while th? five hundred regi- j
mental surgeons lit the volunteer army a
are appointees of the governors of the a
states, and not of the war department J
There are six hundred contract surgeons t
employed, making eleven hundred sur- >
goon?, the details of whose work it i
would be 'absurd to hold the surgeon t
general qi me army resiwimiujc iu?.
Dr. Sternberg declares that the surgeon
general Is responsible for the purchase
and Issuing of medical supplies. These
duties have been faithfully performed,
as has already been shown, but he
shows plainly the Important fact that
It is wholly the duty of the medical officers
with the commands and the regimental
surgeons to make the requisitions
for supplies.
Herein seems to He the cause for
many complaints. The office at Washington
could not furnish supplies unless
the applications were made for them
and made In time. Tf supplies were
permitted to become exhausted before
notifications for more medicines were
given the medical headquarters could
not be blamed, but (he officers on duty
In thv camps. Surgeon General Sternberg
does rfot attempt to shirk his own 1
personal responsibility, but he enllght- [
ens the public upon the details of the j
service and upon the real responslblll- 1
ties In a way which will do much In j
clearing away misunderstandings. ,
Another matter which the surgeon
genera] calls attention to is that the
medical department la In no way connected
with the transportation of
troops on trans en route from camps
to the homes of the soldiers, nor has
the surgeon general control of the transport
ships, about which complaints have
i been made, except !n the case of two
hospital shCps, neither of which bas
been the cause of any criticism.
General Sternberg has made out a
pretty strong case In his statement
Eleven hundred surgeons have bad direct
charge of the sick, while regimental
commanders have had the duty of compelling
the observance of sanitary rules
.in?l th? laws of health by the troops,
ff red tape hns at any time caused delay
In <mnntir>.? It In tho fault of the
system. That has already been correc:- ,
ed. The sensational press Is responsible
for any misapprehension among
the people. ;
Logic o! the Situation* ]
Wood county Republicans opened ]
their campaign Saturday under auspi- 1
clous circumstances. The Democratic >
"state organ," published In this city, has i
a dispatch from Parkorsbur* stating '
that the crowd numbered about 700 '
persons. Seven thousand would havo
been nearer the e^tlmat*. The enthusiasm
of the occasion Ih an augury for
the future of the campaign In the
Fourth district, Democratic misrepresentations
that the affair had no significance
to the contrary notwithstanding.
Left without nn l.i*ye save a poll
cy of abuse of national and stole annuni.itrnHons.
It will not be surprising to
see any aort of an account of Republican
meeting* In the Democratic organs.
The Republicans of West Virginia
are not carrying on their campaigns
on that lino. They have a cause, and
the logic of the situation is behind them.
Nationally the party will stand by tho
record that has been made in tho management
of the government as demonAt
rated in the legislation and In the genoral
condition of the country. Agaln.it
this there Is not a Democratic Issue of a
tangible nature. That 1s why the resort
is made to a campaign of misrepresentation.
As In the pnst. and In
1K00 particularly, tho intelllgonco and
the patriotism of the people will not
bo affected by such n course.
It was demonstrated at I'arker?burg, j
by the outpouring of tho people and the i
enthusiasm which greeted tho telling I
blows delivered by tho speakers, that \
Republicans are awake to the real Issues
vhich they advocate, and those issues
vlll be found In the record# of the buailess
world, and of the general advancenent
of the country, even In the midst
if a war crisis.
In the death of Rev. Dr. John Hall, of
few York, there has passed away one
>f the greatest clergyman In America,
lis greatness not won by his powers of
iratory. but by his wonderful force of
haracter and his persouality which won
nen to him. Although not a native of
his country, he embodied ike American j
plrit, and as pastor of the wealthiest, |
ind one- nof'"' the most fashionable j
ihurches In the metropolis, the Fifth
Lvenue Presbyterian, he was noted the
onntir.^sr for his Independence. His
cholsrly attainments;--his depth as a
hinker, his charm as an author of good
>ooks, his splendid, character, marked
jlm from the beginning: of his career
n this coufltipk.-after coming from Ireand
In 1867, as a man who would tako
llgh rank, a prediction which was fulllled.
The regret over his death will
lot be confined within denominational
inej.
If the President Is correctly reported, I
ind there is no reason to believe that
le Is not, the Inquiry Into the conduct
>f certain branches of the military service
In justice to the officers who have
>een charged with responsibility for al- j
eged shortcomings, will not fail on acrount
of officers and others refusing to j
estlfy concerning charges that have '
>een made. In. answer to thls#expressed j
Proal/font atatoA that he exnect- I
id no such difficulty, but If It did occur,
le "would know the reason why." This I
vas significant enough to meet the obectlon.
While the czar of Russia Is waiting
or something good to come out of ills
llsarmament and universal peace propwltlon,
the skies of Europe are overcast
with clouds that portend momentius
events In an entirely opposite director
In several particulars the si {union
Is not at all favorable to a permalent
peace, and It wouldn't be surprisng
to see the czar himself taking an
ictlve hand In one or two phases.
That Joint DtecniHtoit.
In an Interview in the Charleston
Aail Tribune anent the joint discussion
>etween Gen. Watts and*Governor At- j
tinson. Chairman Dawson says:
"I think I have done a good thing for I
he Republican party In securing jointI
Hsucsslons between Governor AtklnBon
md Gen. Watts. I am not at all sur>riacd
that Chairman Ohley declined to
issist In this matter. Mr. Ohloy is a very
ihrewd politician and a very good mnniger,
and he knows that the Issues, this
'ear, are not with his party. He hopes j
.0 catch our people asleep. I believe
ve should force the fighting all along
he line.
"I am perfectly well aware that the
ittempt lias been made to offset this
irrangement by creating a belief that
have put Gov. Atkinson on the stump
is a senatorial candidate. I was perfectly
aware that his would be said,
md I gave the mattercareful consldera;lon;
but I did not see why the goverlor
should be kept off the stump; beildes
I expect to arrange for joint dlsjusslons
between other gentlemen soon.
Vh to the senatorshlp, the first duty of
Republicans is to elect a Republican
legislature, and that legislature will
fleet Governor Atkinson, Mr. Scott, Mr.
Salnes, Gen. Goff, Mr. Poffenbargor, Mr.
Caldwell, or some other pood and capable
Republican to the senate. Among
hese gentlemen we all have cur Individual
preferences. But this Is not the
lime to talk about Individuals; now is
the time to talk about the Republican
jarty. The party machinery, ao far as
[ control It. will not be used in the interest
of any candidate; it will be used
n the Interest of the party."

New York Mail and Express: The
