A apedal meeting of tb street committee
waa held ea Monday evening, with the
following ' member present ! Messrs.
Riddle, StermfeUt, Sing, Haines, Freeh,
dimming, Lftag and Underwood. Mr.
Wine m absent through sickness.
Chairman Riddle aald the object of the
meeting wM te make inquiry m te
the, truth of reports in circulation for
Mveral says aa te the weighing of stone de
livered ie the city during the year 1K&.
The parties named in connection with the
scandal demanded an investigation, and
te give all an opportunity te be heard this
meeting was called. This investigation
was net made at the Instance of any mem
ber of the committee, as none of them had
any grievance.
C. A. Oast, the 'clerk of the committee,
mtm directed te reduce the testimony te
writing, Alderman Barr'was present te
qualify the witnesses and City Solicitor
Brown was present as the city's rcprosen rcpresen
atlvet te conduct the examination of the
witnesses.
Jehn McCully was the first witness
called, and his testimony was as follews:
I was employed during the year 1888
te weigh the stone hauled from the
Engle quarry ; I kept a book t witness
Identified the one shown him by Mr. Brown
as the book in which the weight of the
atone delivered was kept ; 1 weighed nearly
very cart lead of stene that left the
Vplarry ; there wero net many leads that I
did net weigh ; there might have been a
few iu the morning befere I get thore; I
w cut en duty about 8 o'clock ; the carters
get there as early m half past live and if I
was net there at 0 o'clock seme of
the carters took their leads away ; these
leads weie weighed by the foreman of the
quarry and he g no the weight te me ; this
did net happen mere than a half dezen
times.
Mr. Brown asked the witness hew it oc
curred there was 4U0 pounds dltrcrence in
two leads carried by the same cart, ene
weighing 2,000 pounds ami the ether 2,'iVI
pounds.
Mr. McCully explained the dlfXorence in
tills way: Eight trips constituted a day's
work himI the carts wero expected te take
IR.
2,000 pounds en each trip; but if the carter
takes UtyKWpeundsin seven trips, it counted
the same; the (list leads In the morning
wcic usually the hoariest.
Mr. Kiddle asked hew it was towards the
end of the season that se uintiy leads
weighed exactly 2,000 pounds, when earlier
In the season the weight carried varied se
widely, and read from the record kept, the
following : Octelcr 18, 61 out or 80 leads
weighed exactly 2,000 pounds ; November
2, 71 out of 7U ; November 5, out of 80 ;
November 7, 40 out of 01 ; December tl, fi.1
out of 72 ; December 7, 70 out or 82 : De
cember 8, 4t out of B0 ; December 111, D!t out
of 511; December 11, 35 out of 52; Decem
ber 12, 07 out of 75 ; December 13, 06 out or
73 ; December 14, til out of 81 j December
in, 42 out or 40 ; Decciutier 20, 15 out of 15.
Mr. Rlddle asked this questien: Is it
possible te put en the scales 81 Jeads as the
carts till up and 8J of thorn weigh exactly
2,000 pounds?
Mr. (McCully' s answer was that the carts
would come en the scales weighing l,tei5,
1,050 or 1,075 pounds; I would gie the
tarter credit for a ten, but charge the dctlc
iency in u little book I kept, and the carter
would make up the dellcieney the next
lead; I admit that I was dlrellit iu net
weighing the carts as often ns I should
when the weather changed ; after a rain u
cart would neigh mere than in dry
weather; I deny that I was down at the
bridge when carts came iu and net thoie te
weigh them ; 1 might have been absent
occasionally towards the end of the season,
but only for a short time.
Mr. Blddle asked if it was possible te
put 2,000 jMiunds of Mone en one or these
nuts.
Mr. McCully said it was u big lead, but
the weight was correct.
Mr, Drewn asked Mr. McCully where
the little book was in which he charged
these dellclcncicH.
Mr. McCully replied : 1 cannot tell where
VT it is ;-lt is mislaid.
Mr. llrewn asked Mr. McCully why he
kept two sets or books 'and Mr. McCully
suld te satisfy the carters. They had te
carry 2,000 pounds a trip te satisfy Street
Commissioner Bertz.
Mr. Kiddle ir you get thore and round
no carts waiting did you net go away and
net get back 7
Mr. McCully I might have done se once
or twice.
Mr, Kiddle Is It net a root that carters
towards the last get careless and could
haul as much as (hey pleased and get credit
for 2,000 pounds overy trip ?
Mr. McCully Everything was done
right and it the city was beaten iu any way
it was in 1113' neglect In net weighing the
carts.
Mr. Brown asked when the carters niade
up the deficiencies spoken or, with which
they were charged.
Mr. McCully There might have been
mjiiie discrepancy tlioie. They might net
have always made up the deficiency
through neglect en my part.
Tills- finished the examination of Mr. Mc
cVilly.

Campbell, Jehn Nclf, carters, employed In
hauling Mone In 18.SS, from the Kngle
quarry, wcre next exutuijicd as witnesses
Their testimony did net differ from that of
Mr. McCully. They hauled stene fiem
the quarry which avas weighed by him,
except probably the tiist lead and
ir he was net there te weigh
that lead they were credited with
2,000 pounds. The leads weighed from
1,050 te 2,000 pounds, but there were
only a few or the latter weight. '1 or the
above witnesses with a single exception
thought it unlikely that the stones w elghcd
exactly 2,000 pounds, but they accounted
fur the entries the same way Mr. McCully
did. inhere were a rew pounds short they
were given credit Ter a ten and expected te
make up the dcilciew-y en the next trip.
That appeared te lolhe custom. Thore was
no agreement, but thoshertago was always
made up. t

Frederick Englo,the ew nor of the quarry
from which these stones wcre taken, was
next examined, ana ins testimony was:
As far as I knew Mr, McCully was at the
quarry all the time stone was being hauled
away; I furnished him with alioek te keep
his accounts, and only saw it afterwards
onee or twice; I de net knew whero it wus
kept; I never interfered with the men at
.t)u quarry in any way; they had it all their
'uh n -way last year, the same us new; I
kept no account of the stene furnish!-,! te
the city, and did net knew what was fur
nished except by the account given te me
by the wclghiuaster.

Jacob Bcrtz, street commissioner in
JfeW, was uext examined, ud Ids teU-
HdtqrwHt t waa at Xngte'a qaiarry fro fre
anantly during 1880 and round Mc
Cully there every tlm bat once;
that wm early la the morning ; I called Mr.
McCulfy'a attention te the credits of 2,000
pounds, that appeared se frequently in his
books, and he gave me the same exporta
tion that he did and as appears above; 1
was then satisfied with his acceunt: I fre
quently weighed the atone en scales in dif
ferent sections of the city and found Mc
Cully accounts straight; as te there being
heavier leads hauled In June the men then
had the privilege of making a days work
In seven trips Instead of eight ; providing
10,000 pounds of stone were hauled.
Mr. Riddle stated that the account kept
by Mr. McCully had been audited by the
clerk of the street committee and Mr. Gast
was called as a witness. His testimony was:
i counted up the several Items eT stene
hauled from the quarry and found that
114,400 pounds wMlch appear en the hooks
Mr. Engle has net been paid for. This oc
curred through the neglect of Mr. McCul
ley in carrying out en some days the
amount of stone delivered, and by the ac
count as corrected the city Is Indebted te
Mr Kngle 125.77. n
The cemmlttee,aer deliberating for some
time en the testimony, reached the follow
ing conclusion by a unanimous vote :
TMK IXJNCtCMOy RKACHKP.
That from the testimony received there
is no evidence that the city has been de
frauded, and no evidence that any
ene has been dishonest but sim
ply that Welgh-mastcr McCully has
been careless In his methods and
had a peer plan of book-keeping. All per
sons connected with the matter are exon
erated from intentional wrong and Mr.
Engle is freed from even a suspicion of
wrongdoing.
At the conclusion of the above Invrstim-
tten the committee discussed the proiesod
removal or the stene crusher te another
part or the Engle quarry. It whs decided
te lie inexpedient te place it at the place
proposed, at the top or the Meuth Queen
street hill, en account or the danger thore
would be te parties who have te use that
street with thelr teams and a resolution
was adopted suspending operations at the
quarry for the present
Ttiocemmitteo will makean examination

quality or stene than'Is furnished the city
at present.

attempts te cuforce prohibition in the

te creating evidence against themselves

but ha e resulted in great oxpense te this
department by requiring us te detect and

Resolutions Adopted Denouncing the
Liberal Wlmr-Mhdten Wright and
Ml Adherents KxpaUed.
Yerk, May 14. At this morning's sec
Ien of the general conference of the United
Brethren In Christ, a resolution was
adopted declaring that Bishop Wright, of
Ohie, and the ether delegates who with
drew from conference yesterday and
formed another organization, had Irregu
larly withdrawn from this body and the
church and are no longer ministers or
members of the church of the United
Brethren In Christ. r
At a meeting this' morning of the1
minority conference, the small faction op
posed te recognizing secret societies, the
committee en the state of the church made
their report embodying resolutions te the
effect that they were the regular general
conference or this church standing llrmly
en the constitution of 1811 and strongly
condemning the liberal views of the nut
going majority In their new constitution
and confession or ralth.

Secession or a Portion or the General
ContVrence at Yerk.
The long expected secession in the
United Brethren conference took place In
Yerk en Monday. When It became known
that the new constitution was te go into ef
fort Immediately the minority left the
building and held a secret meeting In
another part of the city. They then do de
cided te iiand together under the old con
stitution. Accordingly an open talk session
was held at 2 p. m. In the Park opera house,
Bishop Wright presiding. Sixteen minis
ters w ere present who had ceased te act
with the larger body in its deliberations.
This step is the culmination of a long
controversy, which was Itegtin In Its present
form four years age at the general con
ference at Fostoria, O. The 4we bodies
new dlsagree as te which is the old church
The inlnerity or seceding section claims
that distinction because they clcave te the
old constitution, while the majority claims
that title because the members have ex
isted since 1811 under the constitution, and
work under It only in amended form. The
minority will held morning, afternoon and
evening sessions each day this week.
Aiier tne majority session had closest
many of the ministers Isited the meeting
held by the minority and listened te the
proceedings. The Iralters comprise nearly
one-slxth of the entire list of delegates and
have opjtesod the lay delegation in flie gen
eral conference, and also membership Iu
secret societies. They claim te have been
willing te compromise, but declare thelr
openents would make no concessions
whatever.

A dispatch from Tucson, Arizona, savs:
Majer J. W. Wham, U. H. paymaster, "ac
companied by his clerk, W. T. Olbden, left
here last Wcunesdav en atrip te pay troops.
They went by rail te Wilcox and from that
point, by ambulance, overland, The funds
paid troops in this department are In coin

The amount was about f75,O0O. It was put
In a strong weed box, banded with iron.
This was strapped te the hinder beet or the
ambulance, which carried the paymaster
and his clerk. , .-
The paymaster disbursed at 'Fert Bewio

reduced his treasury te 2fi.OO0. He left
Fert Grant Saturday morning for Fert
Themas. He had an escort often colored
soldiers in command of two colored non
commissioned efUcerc The dlstance from
Grant toThemus is forty-live inllcs,threugh
a mountainous and uninhabited country.
Ceilar Springs station is about iitldw-ay,and
is made historic from the fact of being ence
an Apache stronghold.
It was at this point, three miles north of
Ceilar Springs, in a deep narrow gorge,
that Majer Wham was attacked.
As the party approached the point (hey
found the read ebstiuctcd by several large
rocks. Soveral of the escort get out of their
wagons, leaving their guns behind them,
and proceeded te remove the rocks from
the read. As they gathered around u lingo
boulder a calling flre came pouring down
from thecHllsatid breastworks. At the first
flre several efthem foil. The ethers rushed
back for their guns and the battle began.
Maj. Wham'sdriv or was wounded early in
the fight and craw led away Inte the bushes.
It is new bollev ed that twel ve rebl iers were
engaged iu the fight. When they found
they could net disledge the escort from the
lcdgoer the rock iu which they hed taken
refuge, they made a detour with a part of
their ferce te the side of the mountain, and
opened flre. Then the soldiers saw they
could net disledge the robbers, and took te
their heels toward the ravine, te reach
w hlch they had te cress a cleared sjmce
fully a hundred yanls wide, exposed
te the murderous flre from the slde
of the mountain. One robber is
known te have lieen seriously
WQunded, as the soldiers could see them
strapping him te the back or a iniile and
jomevo him. The highwaymen ev idciitlv
anticipated a hard fight, for they had built
a fortification further up the hill. Inte
which they could have retreated had they
been eeniclled te abandon the first one.
After the soldiers hed reached the bush In
the ravine the robbers kept up a constant
firing. One cortieral was shot in the
stomach at the first attack, three
mules wcre killed, and ethers dis
abled. It is l-ellaycd that the
robbers have cscacd around Graham
mountains, making toward Solemonville,
or are still en the Fert Grant side. As
overy mountain pass, railroad train, water
hole, and truil Is watched, it seems hardly
possible that they can escape, though they
may get IntoSeuoni.
During the light eight of the escort were
wounded, four or them fatally. The
sheeting was at short range. Clerk (lib
bon received sv oral bullet heles through
his clothing. Majer Wham was untouched,
although tlioniubulance was riddled with

The leaf tobacco market has been, very
flat the paat week. Net ever a hundred
caaea of eMI goods were sold. There are
still a raw buyers in the Held and during
the week a large crop of 37 acres of Havana
was purchased by Cultmins A. ResentHUim

for the smmehV
Th New Yerk Market.
Frent the U. H. Tobacco Journal".
If net exactlv demeralised the market is
in anytwmr duv a prosperous condition
Te prove this It is only necessary te stale
thai there were sold this week some eighty
odd cases of '80 Pennsylvania, the heads of
a packing or 400 cases at 15c. rerwclght.
What a commentary this actual sale is en
the statement of the New Yerk state seed
? rrewers, pabllshedlastweek, "that maun
acturcra pay te-day Me. for wrappers and
15c. for rulers which shows tee large a
margin te grasp from the tillers of the sol II"
We presume that the packer who made the
above quoted sale, could have put the profit
which he "grasped from the tillers or the
soil "In his vest pocket, If. Indeed, It did
net vanish entirely through a big hole. At
this time of the' season margins are of but
secondary consideration; but even sales
without margin are effected only by drib
lets. The condition of the cigar Industry,
i net actually rotregraaing, is ev leaat. wa-
tlenarywhica afford! hardly a stimulus
te ear manuhcturers te overload them
selves with a gt rick of raw material. Hales,
thcrofero.oxtend only te momentary wants
and what Is thus bought under the duress
or necessity is bought at the low est pnssihle
price. And the range of soles In seed com
prises principally tillers and binders.
As te wrappers, the market is again
scoured for Sumatra. There has Ikjcii a
livelier Inquiry for Sumatra the past week
than for the last two months. The buyers
who held back In aoticlnut'.en that the new
crop weuiit citiicr De lower tn price or
liettcr in iiunllty must have become sorely
disappointed already lit their expectations.
That the new Sumatra will be mure exten
sive than the '87 crop Is new a fact estab
lished beyond any denbt. And as te Its
quality the few lets that have arrived are
still tee raw In thelr appcarance te war
rant a correct Judgment. Hence the
largely increased inquiries for old Sumatra.
But no enhanced safes have thus far re
sulted therefrem. They are still conllned
te what is practically the hale basis.
Naturally the Havana business Is also
suffering from I he general trade depres
sion, but net te the extent Sumatra and
seed Is. As the new Havana crop Is rather
mero distinguished by its .quantity tlian
its quality, the old crops are easily dls dls dls
losed of. And they may iiuss many a
... . . -
year liefore the quality erthe'tW crops may
reproduce Itself.

Once mero the trade has settled down te
business after the holidays which it imrlic
lpatcd In. We nete a far better market for
all kinds of tpbacce than for seme weeks
past. Thore was considerable Inquiry for
uxixirt purposes, but net much was done
in that class of tobacco, owing te the very
limited amount en hand.
Fer home trade Onondaga had the pref
erence, witli Pennsylvania fellow lug. The
lacking season Is fast drawing te a close,
and from what we hear the 1888 crop will
show up seme very handsome wrapjMirs.
About 700 bales of Havana c ban god hands
this week. Theio is no activity observable,
goods moving efT In a quiet way. Prices,
as a rule, held thelr own.
A hand-te-mouth business Is all that Is
being dene In Sumatra. Buyers say they
are waiting for the new' crop. Notwith
standing the present crop is said te be
large and line, the old tobacco w ill have the
preference until the new goods have taken

A very curious race, possessing no little
Interest for students of natural history, and
w hlch Is vouched for by our English eon een
IcmiKirary Ktuncltdut, was recently wit
nessed In Westphalia, the contest being
between pigeons ami a nuinlier of bees, the
rospectUo owners of which had wagered
their favorites te win. The ceurse was
three .miles and a half, that being
the dlstance between the two
villages of llhyneni and llainme;
and a dovecot which hapiciicd te
be near a hlve was selected as the win-iilug-Kist.
It was found no easy mutter te
mark the bees se us te make their Identity
unmistakable, but the dliucully was at
last surmounted by rolling them lu flour
previous te shirting them ou their journey.
This, while making them easily recognized
en thelr arrival, probably retarded their
lllght; but nevertheless, and though the
pigeons wero looked upon by these Inter
ested as the most likely winners, the men
resulted In e victory for the bees; the first
lice arriving ut the est tw enty-llve second
hefore the lirst pigeon, and three ether bees
before the second.

The yrniM man had a talk with Mr.

te slacken down.

many as l'J0,000 barrels In the season from

" Hew almut the profits t "
"Ah I you had better ask about the
losses," said Mr. Smart. There areas
many fluctuations In the fish market aa
there, en the stock exchange, even in
times of panic. The losses of seme big
men, at times, are terrible. They will
have their representatives en the ceaat who
will send them word te buy extensively at
a geed price. Then they buy, and equally
large quantities coma in from ether quar
ters. The consequence la that a large
amount Is left en his hand. "

The Middle Htalea League te Meet ea
Wednesday Kvcnlna.
There will lie a apedal meeting or ihn
Middle States League at the Glranl house,
Philadelphia, en Wednesday evening, for
the purpose of revising the schedule and
appointing a corps of salaried umpires.
After a fair trial of two weeks tha owners
of the six clubs have decided that Ihe pres
ent schedule is Inadequate, aa it does net
glve thorn enough games. It Is proposed
that a new schedule lie adopted, which will
give the rlubK at least four games a wk.
The home umpire rule has proved a dis
mal failure, and the clubs are unanimous
in thelr desire te sociire a com potent corps
or three men and a substitute, who shall be
under the control of the secretary. The
applications from Nnrrlstewn and Nor Ner
walk, Conn,, will also be acted upon.
The Porlueudo base ball nine was organ ergan
ired last evening at William Fiss' cigar
stere. The batteries are Leng and Zecher
and Herr and Kessiiian, The ether play
ers are ; First huse, Steel ; second base,
Weaver; third base, Kline; short step,
Cllne ; left Held, Itellly ; centre Held, Sou Seu
senlg. ltlght Held will lie filled by mem
bers of the batteries.
William Hlttenhoiise, n flelderand pitcher
of the Iancnstcr club, was released last
night.
As the Mlddle States Leaguo wilt likely
secure a corps of umpires at their mectliig
te-morrow, they could net de better than
take W. S. Dean, of this city, aa ene of
them. He has this season proved himself
te lie a very competent nian.
Thore Is u sort of mlxture of base ball
clubs in Lancaster te-day, and two teams
arrived here this afternoon te play the
home club. They are the Active, of Head
ing, and thn Yorks. On Saturday the Lan
caster poeplo telegraphed te Heading asking
them wbother they would change a
game from July 10th Ie te-day. Ne an
swer was socured, and after several
hours word was telegraphed te Yerk
asking if they would come here te-day. In
the evening Beading accepted the date and
seme tlme afterwards Yerk telegraphed
that they would be here. The tancaster
poeplo telegraphed Yerk net te come, that
Heading had the date. The manager of the
Yerk team did net get the tidegrani,linving
left for Gloucester during Die evening. He
heard or the change yesterday and then
sent word that he would lie here for a game
te-day. He will likely demand te be paid
rer coming, but the Lancaster poeplo say
they did all that was posslble te Inform
him of the state of nll'alrs. Heading Is play
ing this afternoon.
The games played yesterday rosulted as
follews: Philadelphia 4, Chicago 3 (eleven
