Purchase of a Stockton Ave., Alle gheny, Lot for an Experiment FIRST BIG APARTMENT HOUSE, And A'ot a Theater, to be Constructed Ij the Purchasers. A SIX-FLAT STEUCTOKE CONTEMPLATED C. H. Love yesterday sold the property of the Tiernan heirs on Stockton avenue, Alle gheny City, 70x240 feet, with an old resi dence building, for 530,000 to D. T. "Wat son, Esq., and K. 2T. Head. The price paid is for the ground, as the bnildings are not considered worth anything as an invest ment The sale is of more than ordinary inter est, from the fact that Fred Parke and other gentlemen have been for some time engaged in the consideration of its eligibility for a site for a theater tor our Xorthside neigh bors. It is also stated that, since the sale was consummated, Mr. Parke, or someone supposed to be similarly interested, had offered an option to hold the property for a time at $35,000. Mr. Love said he did not feel at liberty to state what intention the purchasers had, but it is conjectured elsewhere, and in fact there are people who say it is not a conjec ture, but a crystalized fact, that Messrs. "Watson and Head intend to build an apart ment house, comprised ot a number of flats for rent, to be built after the most approved style in' vogue in the Eastern cities. "Whether or not they intend to have a culinary department at tached, which will take the burdens of the kitchen off tenants, was not ascertained; but it was suggested that the communal idea in this respect might be entertained. The in tention is said to be to put up a building six stories or more in height, and it is thought a co-operative cooking project may alo be in view. Attention has been called in the past to the advantages poor people might gam were they to band together and employ a pur chasing agent on salary to buy food for them. They could pay him a liberal salary and then feed themselves S3 per cent cheap er and much better than they can under present methods of purchasing. For in stance, a barrel of onions can be bought on Liberty street to-day for 51 40, while a bushel bought in a small way costs 51 GO. It is estimated by some that if a co-operative and scientific cook, who knew how to utilize odds and ends, were employed by a number of families they could secure better food at a rate that would not only save the expense of servants but the cares of the mis tress of the household, allowing her time to get acquainted with the babies in the few intervals which life in society allows her. Stockton avenue enjoys the reputation of being the best adapted location for boarding houses in the two cities. ADAM SLATER'S BLOOD Is Traced to the Hands of Thomas Hol loway by the Coroner's Jury. The oloody butcher knife with which Thomas Holloway is alleged to have almost decapitated Adam Slater at the Gould boarding house in Cork's Run, Saturday night, was produced in evidence and fully identified at the Coroner's inquest yesterday morning. "Walter Green, James Gould, Mrs. Mary Gould, Constable Klislium, James Atkinson, Joseph Hollison, John Cochrane, James Nicholson, Chris. Stein miller, Dr. T. E. Miller and Charles Black burn were the witnesses, and they detailed the various phases of the tragic story as heretofore published. They agreed thatHolIoway had explained his bloody deed by saying: "'Adam asked me to do it." There could be no possible doubt as to the character of the occurrence, though some of the witnesses were doubtful as to Holloway's alleged drunkenness at the time. On the following verdict Coroner McDowell committed Holloway for murder in the first degree: Adam Slater, aged about 45 years, came to his death at the residence ot James Gould, Char tiers township, Sunday, January 20. 1S9, about 12.-09 A. M., from hemorrhage of the neck aud facial arteries, due to his throat having been cut. From all the evidence the jury finds that such cutting was done with a butcher knife in the hands of one Thomas Holloway in the dminc room of said house about 11:50 P. M., featurday night, January 19, 1S89, with felonious intent NOTIFIED AS TBEDICTED. Owners ot Unsafe Buildings Nenr the Scene of Disaster Warned. As was predicted in The Dispatch yesterday morning, Building Inspector Frank yesterday notified the owners of dangerous or unsafe buildings at or near the corner of Diamond and "Wood streets, that their structures must be torn down. The owners have 48 hours in which to ap peal. The owners notified were: David Gregg, owner of the buildings 425 and 431 Wood street; Mrs. J. E, McKee, 427 "Wood street; Mrs. Morrison, 429; James Herdman, 433, and the Exchange National Bank, owner of the building No. 33 Diamondstreet Joseph Eichbaum and the owner of the building occupied by "Watts & Co., will be notified to repair their walls. It Was the Other Fellow. James Henna, contractor and builder, called at this office yesterday to say that he wasn't the same Kenna who was arrested for larceny. He said it was rather embar rassing to shoulder another man's responsi bility. One Secret of Longex-ity.

"With Mr. A. C. Robertson in the chair, Select Council met yesterday, went Into a committee of the whole, and at once took up the discussion of the ordinance offered at last meeting relative to the disposition of persons dying from infectious diseases. Section 6, relative to the transfer of bodies, was approved with a slight amend ment. Section 7, providing for fumigation; section 8, for the penalty of violation, and section 9, for instituting suits, were ap proved. , . Dr. Grimes offered as a substitute for section 4 that infected bodies be not al lowed in any church, chapel or public hall without a special permit. Mr. Sullivan said it was an outrage, as it deprived men of their religion and Catholics of their last rites and a man who asked for mass with his last breath would be deprived of it by this section. Mr. Lambie said it was not the intention to deprive any of their religiousservices, j-et there was a respect to the living aside of respect for the dead. The Catholic Church would not allow the corpse of a smallpox or yellow fever patient in the church, vet Dr. Daly had said diphtheria and scarlet fever were equally dangerous. Mr. Sullivan had acted on the advice of Father McTighe, and there were reasons in the Catholic Church when mass could not be said without the body. A vote was taken and the substitute adopted, and Mr. Sullivan wanted a call of the house, but was ruled out because a question ot that kind could not be raised in a committee of the whole. Mr. Robertson's motion to reconsider section 5 was adopted, and the committee arose. Mr. Sullivan reported to Council, and Mr. Sullivan moved to lay the ordinance on the table, which was lost, as follows: Ayes Messrs. Barrett, Dwyer, Epping Haslett, O'Toole, Sullivan and Wllllams-7. Noes Messrs. Getty. Grimes Gross, Eatable, Marshall, Paul, Kobertson, Rohrkaste, Schulz, bchuck, Smith, Sorg and President Ford 13. The ordinance was laid over for printing, and that providing for more effectual pro tection ot the public health was postponed for further action. ALLEGHENY COUNTY N0TAEIES.
