A storm is brewing in the '"second city" of "West Virginia. The first blow was struck at the last meeting of the Board of Trade in resolution declaring all the streets and alleys W'thin tne limits open to the public, ami requiring lot owners to pave the side walks adjacent to their property. In 1S71 the Central Land Company was granted a 20-jears charter. The headquar ters of the company were in Kew York, and C. P. Huntington and his immediate friends owned enough ot the stock to control its policy, and practically Mr. Huntington is the Central Land Company. After Mr. Huntington had swallowed up all the de sirable lanu in the town ot Huntraeton he Cricioiifclj allow ed his richt band, the land rompanj."to Intercede with his lett hand, the Chcapeake and Ohio Railroad, to locate Its ar shop here. Mr. Huntington, the railway magnate, hearkened to Mr. Hnntincton, the in J rnntc, and graciously accepted the lat jr' tlonated site. Mr. Huntington was also the cont'olllug factor in the Ensicn Car Manu facturing Compan, located here. 1 he corporation limits were extended to iu c'rnle tne lauds of the Central Land Company, and n o'dinaucc passed permitting their prop erty to bear farm taxation until each square at broken by the sale of a lot. As last as the tquires were broken they were subjected to lot valuation on the assessor's books Nearly one halt of the land inclosed within the town limits is the property of the Central Land Company, and lies in yet unbroken meadows. This nrop erty is, and has been, rapidly sold to carshop employes at an enormous profit.

The company's chatter exnlrcs thisjear. Two years ago the land company had a receiver appointed to wind tip Us, affairs this was to get around the Legis lative enactment.

They Find It Difficult to Collect Demurrage Charges in Akron. Tf FECIAL TELEGUAM TO TUJt DXSrjLTCH.1 AKHON, O., Feb. 3. A war seems imminent between the railroads entering this city and the manufacturers over the refusal of the lat ter to pay the railroad companies' demurrage cliarccs for the holding of freight cars on twitches. The trouble first arose oer the re fusal of the J. I". Seiberlmg Company and the Akron fctreet Hallway Company to pay any charges. An order was then issued by Mr. Simmons, manager of the Cleveland Car feervice Compan, that no cars assigned to the street railway compauj over the line of the Vallcj road should be placed on the siding ad jacent to their power house. This was fol lowed b an order of the C, A. C. road, through the managers of the car service, that no freight consigned to the Linuire Mower and Reaper Works should be placed on the switch leadiug to the factor until demurrage charges as aked shall have been paid. In the first instance a mandatory order was issued compelling the Valley Company to de liver coal on the power house switch pending the flnil decs. on of the case. In the matter of the J. i. buuerling Company a petition was tiled asking the railroad company to be com pelled to deliver cars on the switch, claiming it te be deleterious to their business if not done. A decision in the hearing is expected at any time now. The Cleveland Car berrice Com- Iiany, tlirongb whom the demurrage charges iae been asked, was formed last sprme and included Akron, Canton. Masstllon, Alliance and other neighboring cities. SOW FOB A STBIKE. Mine Operators and Their Employes' Rep resentatives fail to Agree. rsrlCIil.TSI.r.GKJLlCTO TB DISPATCH.' fecoTTDALE.

The miners said they would agree to work at the rates ns embodied in the present agreement until March 1, if the operators would, in the meantime, begin negotiations for the loimation of a satisfactory labor contract for the ensuing year.

Ibe miners want for theertulng .rarS107for mining, 65 cents for drawing coke, tli discontinuance of the non-union employe-, the eight hour system and the erctiun of weigh scales on coal tipples. The operatota have peremptorily declined to consider the last two demands.
