Invitations have been sent to a number of neighboring cities.

as well as urgent requenta to various infuential citizens on whom the success of the meeting largely depends. Secretary Birch has taken hold of the matter with considerable vim, and the coming of President Vance. of the Ohio River Improvement Association is due to his forts. realizing that the meeting will fully voice the sentiments of Greater Wheeling, and strike one more blow toward the improvement project. The conditions are well known to every facturer and merchant, and the 'On to Catro' movement is no longer myth--if it has ever been but one way to accomplish the great end in view, and that la to unify the forces and the spirit of progress that has made the Ohio Valley famous in all parts of the earth for its marvelous production.

The tremendous combination of brain, wealth and resources demands that an outlet shall be made for the production participated in by over 8,000,000 of people. To slackwater the Ohio from Pittsburg to Cairo, and the building of 37 dame, la indeed a gigantic and seemingly unsurmountable king. but is it any greater than what has been scootnplished in establishing the great mills along the Ohio, whose capacity could be doubled if the Ohio were capable of carrying away the production? An enthusiastic meeting 19 looked for. and those wha attend will be well pleased with wonderful amount of new facts and figures, which will be clearly presented by the champion of the cause. President John L.

Vance The Memphis Commercial- Appeal says: speed contest between the present Kate Adama and the Lotus Sims would be competition of the new versus old. The Lotus Sims formerly called the Kate Adama, and she was owned by the same parties who own the present Kate. Some river men are of the opinion that the Sims can beat her successor. and if such race were run the Sims would have many backers among the local river men who are ed with the records. Interest on the wharf front is now centered about the challenge of Captain Sima, of the steamer Lotus Sims.

to the Stacker Lee 'for mones, marbles or The Captain of the free lance packet has made sweeping challenge to race any boat on the rise any distance, from one mile to a thousand miles, for wager of $10.000: The challenge 19 aimed at any boat on the river, but the Lee Line preferred, and the Stacker Lee the particular object of the challenge. A great deal of about the merits of the respective boats heard on every hand. Old river men who have discussed the famous race of the Natchez and the Robert E. Lee back in the seventies, until every wheel turn in their memorable contest -betweet New Orleans and St. Louts has been reached again and again.

have passed up the discussion of that red letter event in the history of steamboating on the Mississippi. The prospective contest between the Stacker Lee and the Lotus Sims is now the subject of the hour. Naturally both vessels have many supporters. All the incidents that have occurred in the histories of both craft are recalled with minuteness of detail that tells of an intimate acquaintance with the sibilities of the rivals, The speed records of the Stacker established on her recent runs between Memphis and St. Louis are cited.

The fast time made by the Lotus Sims when she was called the Kate Adama and ran in the Vicksburg trade ofcasioned much comment. and everyone who keeps tab on the steamers in eager to get an additional 'line' on the respective capabilities of the boats."

Proposed Merger With Trust Company Obstructed. Squire Gass's Appointment Held To Be Legal. Geiger Jury Has Been Secured, and Murder Case Will Proceed ToDay--Court News. The trouble over dissolution, or attempted dissolution, of the Cincinnati Savings 50- clety has not ended, and yesterday an evidence of it was the filing of an amerided petition in the Common Pleas Court in which new allegations were made as to the conduct of the business of the society since the filing of the original petition. It will be reealled that when there was talk of dissolving the Cincinnati Savings Society some months ago a suit was filed by Lawrence Poland and others asking that the Trustees and officers be enjoined from taking any steps to dissolve.

It was claimed then that the sole object of the proceeding to dissolve was to merge with the Union Savings Bank and Trust Company, and that that was impossible under the law; that the only way such a dissolution could be made was on a vote of the depositors, who are the stockholders, and that the vote must be taken only after certain preliminaries had been complied with provided by law. The case was heard and the Court held that the society could only be dissolved in the manner specified by the plaintiffs in the suit, and the depositors had the right to vote as they pleased on the question. The Union Savings Bank and Trust Company made a proposition to take the deposits of the savings society and pay per cent on them for a period up to December, 1904, and 3 per cent thereafter. On this proposition a vote of the depositors was taken and a majority voted in favor of 1f. Then notice was given in compliance with the law that on the 16th of June vote would be taken 38 to whether the soclety would be dissolved.

CLERKS ENTERED. In the meantime clerks of the Union Savings Bank and Trust Company were allowed in the banking room of the society on Fifth street, where they were ready to take deposits from all persons who pledged their deposits in the society to the, Union Trust Company, and who desired to open new accounts with the latter, the society not taking any deposits 'after the notice of the Intention to vote on the question of dissolution. Proxies were also asked of depositors for certain persons, officers of the society, to cast the vote on the question of dissolution. In the amended petition filed yesterday it is declared that by the allowing of the elerks of the trust company in the offices of the savings society the good will was disposed of without compensation, as persons who might not otherwise have done so opened accounts with the trust company, no other banking institution being given an equal chance. This good will, it is asserted, is a valuable asset, and should not be so disposed of.

It is also charged that by the obtaining of the proxies to vote on the 16th inst. the Intent was and is to force the society into a dissolution and turn. it over to the Union Savings Bank and Trust Company, thus effecting a merger and getting around by subterfuge the inhibition of the law as to doing such 8 thing.
