The Street Committee Approve It After
n Little Chin Music.
fast "evening the street committee of
councils held a meeting at which all of the
members were present except Daniel Sing.
The matter that was first brought up was
the bill of Fritchey ,t Hinden, for laying
the asphalt blocks en North Duke street,
between James and Lemen streets. The
firm had received $3,000 en the work aud
they claimed n balance of 12,213.75. This
sum Included a bill of $217.71 for extra,
work en the square. The ex tra work came'
about in tills way, according te the state
ments of the firm with which pearly all of
the iiiembers of the romtnltteo agreed.
When the work was first commenced the
rontracters wero given tlie stakes for it by
the city regulator nnd they dug up the
street, en betli sides of tlie street as well
as between the rails ofthecar track, separ
ated tlie dirt from the stenes and placed
the stones back for a foundation. Tlie
street cemmittee found that the car track
would liave te be lewered and a tneeting
vas held with the street railway company.
It was agreed te put the trackB down four
Inches. The work of lewering the tracks
was dene by the car company and tlie dirt
was thrown en either siue upon the atones
that the contractors had put down and the
stones between tlie track had te be taken
up again. In this way considerable work
was dene by the contractors,who wero told
te go en witli it, by tlie city solicitor, who
said that the quostieu of who was te pay for
it would be settled afterwards. Fer this
work the extra bill was sent in.
Mr. Fritchey presented the claim of his
firm and made a statement. Mr. Cu tu
rnings made objection te the payment of
the bill. He said that' the firm had much
less work te de than was expected when
they started nn the street, which was made
narrower than it was first Intended te be.
He did net knew whother the work was
done according te contract or net. Thore
were soverat lively tilts botweon Mr.
Fritchey and Mr. Cummings and the latter
and Chairman Itiddle, and much was
talked about that was irrelevant te the bill
for extra work. Mr. Cummings was called
te order a number of tlmes, and it required
some tlme bofero e very thing was straight straight
ened out.
City Engineer Herr made a statement
corroborating what Mr. Fritchey had said,
and he also stated that he had bofero re
ported Iho work te have been satisfactorily
dene.
Nearly all tlie members of the com
mittee felt confident and oxpressed thoin thein thoin
selves te the effect that the contractors
hed dene a considerable amount of extra
work and thought they should be paid for
it, although the question was whother they
should be paid as much as they claimed or
less. Mr. Wise filially said that he
thought he could settle tlie matter if the
chairman would but appoint a sub-corn-mlttee
of three members of the cemmittee. te
held a few minutes talk with the contrac
tors and city solicitor. This was agreed te
and the chair appointed Messrs. Haines,
Wise and Cummings en the cemmittee.
They retired te common council looms,
and after talking a while with the con
tractors returned, stating that they had
settled the matter. Mr. Haines stated en
behalf of the cemmittee that they had con
sidered all of the items, and had agreed te
recommend the payment of the bill for
extra work, but te deduct from it $90 for
blocks that were net used en account of
the widening of the pavement ene feet for
a whole square. This was agrocable te all,
and the bill was approved with this deduc
tion. The proposals for the paving with
Relgian blocks of the diamond at Dukn
and Chestnut streets, and the space be
tweon the railroad bridge and Chestnut
street aud the pavitrr of the Duke and
Orange strects diamond with asphalt blocks
were opened.
The bids wero as follews: Duke and
Orange strect diamond, Fritchey &. Hln Hln
den, $725; J. G. Galbralth $2.75 per square
feet. Fer the work at Chestnut street and
the bridge, Fritchey A Hinden f 1,350; Oa
ter ct Hre., 81,250; J. O. Galbralth $3 per
square yard.
The city englneor.wlie had an idea of tlie
space in which the blocks were te be laid,
made n calculation and stated that Mr.
Galbralth was the lowest bidder. He did
net knew exactly what tlie number of feet
would be, but he did net think that at the
highest calculation Mr. Gulbraith's figures
would be higher than $591 for the Orange
street work and $'JO0 or $1,000 for the otlier.
On motion of Mr. Cummings, it was
agreed te glve the work te the lowest bid
der. Tlie city engineer was ordered te
ascertain for sure who was the lowest
bidder, and report te tlie chairman, when
a contract would be entored into.
Tlie engineer was instructed te see that
the work en both diamonds was properly
dene and then the cemmittee adjourned.
Sullivan's Wants a lliir Purse.
Jehn L. Sullivan was seen en Thurs
day In relation te the $10,000 offer of the
California Athletic club. He said : " The
California Athletic club knew what I of
fered them when I was asked te go out
there, and that is just what I will de. I
will meet tlie colored lighter at their club
rooms if a purse of $20,000 Is hung up and
that is my final auswer. I am willing te
meet any man they put up against me, but
they must carry out the deal with Jacksen
new or it will cost them mero money
when thev coma te talk it evor uirain.
"That is the price for meeting a colored
flghter. I will meet any white man fur a
$10,000 purse, but for the ethor I want the
full amount."
""What about the chance of Slavlu meet
ing you?" "It is ail tlie same te me
which of them is set up against me. I have
no choice. All I'm looking at is the
amount given. I ouce said I would never
llgut a coierott man. but they seem te tlilnK

Tlie llrldire ii Tetul Wreck.
The county commissioners havoreturned
from their trip te Weeds' mill, where they

bridge damaged by the flood en Wednes
day. They found the bridge a total wreck.
Tlie iron was tw isted and had been moved

the nppcantnee of ene of the bridges en the
Juniata river, after the great flood of lat
May. The commissioners employed men
te take the bridge apart und remove iron
te a safe place
Tlie bridge will be replaced as seen as
possible, but the kind of structure lias net
yet been determined upon. If replaced
with an iron bridge it will probably be
made about forty feet longer.
The btream at this place where tlie bridge
was built becomes a torrent and In the past
few years about four acres of ground have
been washed away.

A Stranger Visits a Drug Stere nnd De
mands n Dose or I Jiudniiuiu.
Karly last evening whlte Ed. Hrewn,
clerk for Jehn It. Kauffinnn, druggist, Ne.
M North Queen street, was alene in the
store, a large and heavily bultt man walked
in and aiked for ten drops ortlncture of
capsicum, aromatic spirits of ammonia and
ten drops of laudanum. When Mr. Hrewn
turned around te get the drugs the man said
that he might as well put sixty drops of
laudanum in the bottle. In a semewhat
astonished manner, Hrewn, who suspected
something, nsked him what he meant. The
clerk, however, put Iho ammonia nnd cap
sicum into the bettle but Instead of the
laudanum put In water. The bettle was
handed te tlie stranger who at ence drank
Us contents. In n few moments he went
off Inn stupor. Hrewn went around the
counter, whoreupon the man awoke and
asked for laudanum. Hrewn told him pos
itively that he could net have any. The
stranger, who said he had been drinking,
begged for the drug and said lr lie
did net get it he would go out
te a cemetery and take his life. Mr.
Hrewn then went behind the cennteragalu
and the stranger said that if he could net
purchase laudanum he would usohlsewn
as he had been doing nil day. He drew
from his pocket a three ounee bettle which
was thrco-quarters full of something that
looked like laudanum. He placed It te his
lips und was about drinking it, when
Hrewn ran te Ids slde, grabbed tlie bettle
andomntled the coutents in n sink. Tlie
weuld-be sulcide then tried te get up from
his chair, but was unable te de he, nnd he
again fell Inte a stupor or sleep. He
began calling for Dr. Krb, n man
who has been bearding at the Lancaster
County heuse, nnd is a physician. lie
was sent for and he seemed te knew
tlie man. IIe succeeded In waking him up
and after he had given him seuk thing le
scttlebls nerves took him away. There
was quite an exciteiueut ever tlie affair for
a time, and thore is no doubt that the man
meant te take Ids own llfe.
The man was afterwards taken te the
Lancaster County house by Dr. Krb. He
proved le be Themas Foreman, a book
agent, who is said te ceme from Hattlmore.
IIe has been In this city seme time, and
bearded at the Lancaster County house.
He has been In tlie habit of going en a
ceuple ei big drunks each your, and no has
been drinking hard of lata. When in that
condition he fronuently takes laudanum
Had he taken all he wanted last night he
would have sold no mero books. Te-day
he Is all right.

afler recounting In fulsome terms the
claims of "Iiucaster county's candidate

many Republicans that therein lies Ids
weakness ; and If we mistake net tlie signs
of the tlme the Repiibllcau voters of

A COMPARISON.
Is the Plir Iren Industry In Poiinsjivt. Peiinsjivt.
nln Declining r
Frem Iren ter November.
The great activity during Iho past few
years In the building or blast furnaces in
the Seuth has led tlie over-sangulne le pro pre
diet the decline or nig iron manufacture) in
the North, especially In Pennsylvania, and
the ultlninte growth or the Southern states
te the prominent position of the leading pig
iron producing district of thoceuntry. The
Incroase In the number or blast furnncesin
the Seuth, but especially In Alabama, dur
ing the past two years, has certainly been
exceptional, tlie number In that state alene
increasing from 21 ceniplctcd and 10 build
ing in November, 1887, te 41 completed
and 8 building at the present tlme All
these new furnaces are of large capacity,
being built upon the latest design and with
powerful blowing machinery, A glance
at the Industry in Pennsylvania would
sce u te shewthnt the propheslel dee 1 no
Iu that state had really begun, as there are
but 2.10 active furnaces Iu tlie state te-day,
whereas two years thore wero 212 furnaces
which wero In condition te make pig Iren,
a decrease In two years or l'.
Tills apparent devllne in the number or
furnaces in Pennsylvania, however, docs
net ludlcate a real docllne in the producing
capacity of the stale. During the past two
years whlle Pennsylvania has built but
row wholly new furnace plants, thore has
been great at tlvlty In tlie erection of new
stacks te take the place of furnaces of
small slze ami antiquated model, the addi
tion of new nnd mere powerful blowing
engines, the substitution or llre-brlcknud
Improved Iren stoves rerthe elder tyjies or
Iren stoves, the use or rlcher eres, and the
adoption or mero economic methods or
furnace practice.
We have ascertained tlie capacity or the

A PltlHlmrir Institution With 8im,

A gremt sensation was caused in financial
circles In Pittsburg en Thursday afternoon
by the announcement of the failure of the
Lawrence bank.
The Lawreucn bank has paid out$7f0 eut$7f0
000 slnce tlie run en the Institution began,
seme tlme nge, nt which tlme steries of
the bank's weakness wero circulated and
indignantly denied by the olllcers. One
peculiar feature Is Hint en Novembor4, the
bank declared n' " dividend of three per
cent, en tlie oarnings."Thelmiuediuto cause
of tlie collapse) Is understood te be action
taken by the firm or Ieng it Ce., the Vul
can Iren works, which en Thursday cou ceu cou
fessedjudgmonttotlio amount of J00,000
In three notes of 9100,000 each.
President Yeung said : " The failure is
due te my Indiscretion In making leans.
There Is no Imputation of dishonesty rest
ing upon anybody. The heavy run lln lln
Ished the work. We have paid out $263,000
in tlie past three weeks. 1 roughly esti
mate our liabilities from 1700,000 te $H00,0O0.
We refused f,(X or $7,000 oirered en do de
ixisit Thursday nnd eushed a few or our
checks which wero refused at the clearing
house. As te our future, of course I can
say nothing."
At a late hour Thursday night it was ro re ro
pertcsl that the cashier, Jehn Ileerr, had
mysteriously illsappoared,Miud that he had
carried away a large amount or the bank's
money.
Pirrsiiuite, Nev. li Considerable fx fx
citement prevails In tlie Ijiwreneevlllu
district te-day evor the failure of Iho Law Law Law
ronce bank. The doers wero net cloiel
until the usual hour yesterday and when
thereiKirts were first circulated they were
net generally credited. This morniiig.linw merniiig.linw morniiig.linw
evor, the doers remained closed. Many
of the depositors, which were principally
of the poorer class, gathered about the in
stitution, but the best of erder was main
tained. The failure lias caused but little
flurry in financial circles and It Is claimed
that no otlier banks are involved. Leng it
Ce'h. iron plant is Iu tlie hands of the
sheriff, Thojiidgment confessed in favor
of the defunct bank was $.100,000, but It Is
claimed by the firm I hat the actual amount
Is net erer 9100,000.
ANOTHER INCENDIARY FIRE.
A Hani Entirely DustreytsI Near Hlnk
Ity'x llrldge Thurmluy Evening.
On Thursday evening there was anether
lire In the vastern part of the county,
w here they have been quite common of
late, and nearly all seem te be or incen
diary origin, Tlie light was plainly visi
ble) in Lancaster between G and 0 o'clock
and an Investigation showed that the Are
was a burn In size about .lexdO feet, owned
by Samuel Hrubaker, of New Helland,
and occupied by his son-in-law, Levi C.
Eckert. The barn was situated along
the New Helland turnpike; Just
east of the bridge. It was entirely
destroyed, togtther with n tobacco shed
and two acres or tobacco, part of which
was stripped, n hog poll and ether small
buildings. Several wagons wero taken
from the burning barn, but the hay, a let
of farming Implements, harness, ,Ve;.. was
burned. Near the barn was a new build
ing in which horses and ether stock were
kept, and although it was nn lire it was
only slightly damaged.
When the fire broke out Mr. kert, his
wlfe und four children wero uway from
homeon a visit. A nolghber woman was
In the stable. doing the milking for Mrs.
Eckert, Just bofero aud the hired man was
f('edlng. Moen after they had returned te
the house the fire broke out and when
first seen it was in the barn fleer. Tliore
Is no doubt that it was started by an In
cendiary. Tlie property was insured In
the Manhelm Township company. The less
is about 81,000.
A I'uglttve Frem Justice.
Samuel L.Deimy was complained against
bofero Alderman Halbach te-day en a
charge of false pretense. He received J200
en a patent right from A. H. Iivenlle and
that gentleman learned when tee late that
Denny hud ulready transferred tlie patent

be will have several charges or a similar
nature te defend against. Heis sumiosed
