rSrECIAL TELBQRAX TO THE DIErATCrM
"Wheeling, "V. Ya., Feb. 19. The
river came to a stand st 5 o'clock this morn
ing, -with over 45 leet of water in the chan
cel. A new set of river marks have been
put in since the flood, showing eight inches
less water at any riven stage, and that
amount must be added before a proper com
parison with the memorable deluge of seven
Tears aco can be made. By the 1891 marks
the stage of water would have been 45 feet
8 inches, as against 54 feel 4 inches in 1884.
At 6 o'clock this evening the river had re
ceded nine inches, but the inundated streets
will not be clear of water before some time
to-morrow morning. The first mail for two
dajs was distributed to-day, but this occasioned
little inconvenience, as the letters wonld have
remained piled up In the postofflce. Hundreds
ot men will be put to work in the businessidis
tncts to-night washing out the mud, but the
goods will not be replaced and usual business
resumed before Monday.
It is a general matter for congratulation here
that the ilonongabela river did not come out
very strong. Had i s volume of water ap
proached tliat of tb Allegheny, half of our
city would have been submerged and hundreds
of houses must have been swept away. As it
Is, the loss from over-turned dwellings is nearly
as great as it was in 1SS4, as many frames have
been built on low ground since that year,
ilundreds of families on the island are receiv
ing supplies of food to-night iu skiffs.

the shaft.

guards, if necessary, and that work will resume
just as soon as they can get the mine In shape.
The number of dead may reach fire cr six.

THE QEEEVY-SCULL CASE.
An Important Innovation Made In Con
gressional Contests.
rrPECIAL TZLKORAM TO THE DISPATCIt.1
Bedford, Feb. 19. Counsel in behalf of
Edward Scull, in the Greevy-Scull Congress
ional contest, opened their case to-day and
commenced taking testimony. Counsel for
Greevy, in taking testimony in his behalf, sub
poenaed witnesses whose votes they intended to
attack, and compelled them to answer for whom
they voted. This was following the precedent
as in the Curtin-Tocum contest, and nearly
every contested election caso in the United
States. Of course this involved an expendi
ture of a large amount of money and con
sumed a great deal of time. Greevy's counsel
could not see any other way of ascertaining
how illegal voters had voted.
Scull's counsel began to-day by compelling
the custodians of the ballot boxes to pro
duce them, and bv offering in evidence the
registry of the voters and the voting lists, stat
ing that it was for thn purpose of taking from
the ballot boxes the ballots of certain unregis
tered voters, of whom they namo Mr. Fletcher.
Greevy's counsel, of course, objected to this as
unprecedented in Pennsylvania, and will insist
that each voter whose vote is attached be pro
duced. If Scull's method of contest is correct
it will certainly simplify and cheapen Concress
ional contests in the future. Under the ruling
of the Metzer judicial case of Lycoming county
the ballot boxes cannot be opened until all the
evidence is in on both sides, and then only for
the purnose of taking out the rotes that are
illegal. In this case, however, the law is likely
to be reversed. The Notary, under the di
rection of Scull's counsel, will likely open the
boxes at once as soon as tbey make out a prima
facie case.
ALMOST A JAIL DELIVERY.
Friends of Prisoners in Franklin Make n
Desperate Attempt.
rSFECZAL TELEQBA1I TO TUE DISPATCn.1
Franklin, Feb. 19. A desperate effort was
made to liberate the prisoners confined In the
connty jail here this evening, during the ab
sence of Sheriff Ray. Two men waylaid Harry
Wood, the turnkey, outside the jail, knocked
him down with a club, forced a sponge satur
ated with chloroform into his mouth, and then
took tbe'keys of the jail from him, after bind
ing him hand and foot. "
Before they could liberate the prisoners, how
ever, they were frightened away by the an
proachof some ladies. There are several hard
cases in the jail, and it is known the attempt at
liberation was made by some of their friends.
Wood is badly hurt, but will recover.
GAS FOE CAEHEGIE & CO.
They Strike Their Largest 'Welt on a Wash
ington County Farm.
ISPECIAL TELEGBAM TO TUB DISPATCH.1
Lone Pine, Feb. 19. The drillers on Car
negie & Co.'s Grant Montinger well, 1J miles
from this place, had orders last week to pull
the casing, it being a duster, at 2,400 feet, but
the better judgment of Mr. Crawford, who
looks after their wells in the Amity field, pre
vailed, and orders were given to sink it a few
feet deeper. This was done to the depth of 20
feet in the 50 foot sand, and the drill struck
one of the largest gas veins in Washington
county Saturday about noon.
It Is estimated to be three times larger than
any other well on the Carnegie farm. The gas
blew the wrenches out of the drillers' hands
like feathers, and a sledge that came in con
tact with the gas went up through the derrick.
They are having 6ome trouble to get the first
joint of casing unscrewed.

"What folly it would be to cut grass -with a pair of scissors! Yet peo,
pie do equally silly things every day. Modern progress has grown up
from the hooked sickle to the swinging scythe and thence to the lawn
mower. So don't use scissors!
jt Eut do you uso SAPOLIO ? If you don't you are as much behind the
age as if you cut grass with a dinner knife. Once there were no soaps.
Then one soap served all purposes. Now the sensible folks use one soap
in the toilet, another in the tub, one soap in the stables, and SAPOUO
for ail scouring and house-cleaning.
