Spalding's American baseball teams
played their second game in London yester

rBT CABLE TO THE DISPATCB.l
Loxdox, March 13. Copyright At
12 o'clock to-day the baseball party, under
escort of Mr. "White, charge d' affairs in
London, visited the House of Lords, and
afterward the House of Commons, a dis
tinguished privilege in view of the great
number of the party, as no party of equal
size has made the same tour within recent
years under any circumstances. In the
House of Commons they found Sir "William
Harcourt making a characteristic address
against Balfour and his side, all of whom were
sitting on the Ministerial benches. Mr. W. H.
Smith, of "Pinafore" distinction, had his place
also on tbe Ministerial benches.
After their visit to Parliament the boys had a
a hurried glimpse of AVestminster Abbey, and
gazed for a moment at the marble bust of
Longfellow, which the English admirers of the
Cambridge poet have erected to his memory m
the distinguished society ot Shakespeare, Dry
Uen and Burns. They went direct from tbe
Abbey to Lords ground in St. John's Wood,
and were welcomed by Mr. Bonner, the distin-
guished Australian cricketer. Dr. Grace, who
bad come up from Bristol to see the game, and
by more than a score of old-time members of
the famous Marylebone Club.
GET BOWK TO WOEK.
After a collation, which was necessarily brief
oy reason of the lateness of the hour, they
donned their uniforms, and immediately went
to work. Baseball has certainly made a great
hit in England. The weather is against us, as
are the staunchest of the old adherents to
encket: but in spite of these adverse influ
ences there were no less than 8,000 people pres
ent at the second exhibition to day at Lord's
grounds, that sacred precinct into which noth
ing aijrf nobody are admitted save upon the
beapjjosslble credentials. Dr. Grace and Mr.
15 ftner were out to-day in lieu of the Prince of
-tWales, who added eclat to yesterday's game.
The weather was much better than j esterday.
When George Wright went into the center of
tbe diamond to umpire he was qnite able to
see the home plate on one side and the second
base on the other. The attendance was of the
West End sort, rather more distinguished than
that of yesterday, bnt still containing nobody
of international fame. The grounds, as every
one knows who has seen England's most fam
ous cricket field, were of the best possible
character, perfectly level, a velvety plain of
unlimited extent, so far as the necessities of
the game were concerned. Chicago went first
to bat Ryan, who still is playing in Ed
Williamson's place at shortstop, and playing
the position with very good skill, led off. The
lively Jimmy bad tbe misfortune to strike out.
Anson knocked
A TREMENDOUS FLT
into the centerficld, which Hanlou captured
as he habitually captures all similar advances
in that direction. This side was thus out. For
tbe All-Americas Hanlon out an easy
grounder into the hands of Tener, who pitched
for Chicago, and was retired at first. Ward
gave a similar advantage to Pfeffer at second,
and Brown tipped a high foul to Ryan. The
Chicagos were retired in one, two, three order
in their half of the following innings, bnt tbe
All-Americas scored three on hits by Wood,
Fogarty, Manning and Crane. Chicago made
one run in the first half of the third, and the
score remained in that position until the fifth
inning, when Sullivan scored one more for his
side. All-Americas scored again in the sixth,
seventh and eighth innings, a hit by Crane
gaining two runs for his side in that inning.
The Chicagos scored four runs in the eighth
innine on tremendous smashes by Pettit, Sulli
van, Anson and Pfeffer, thus securing the lead,
which they maintained to the end of tbe
game.
An English audience was present, and it was
manifestly English from start to finish. It
showed an immense appreciation of the fine
points of the game, and very few of tbe per
sons present left tbe ground until the game was
finished. All the London newspapers contain
kindly notices of the came this evening, and
much more will appear m the morning news
papers of the same tanor. This evening's
standard says:
"As cricketers Englishmen are supreme, and
men like playing a game in which they excel.
Picked teams of Australian cricketers have
shown remarkably good play against tbe
mother country, but tbe colonials have rarelv
won against really representative elevens, and.
indeed, both tbe last and previous visitors have
made at times poor displays against very mod
erate opponents, for the elements of chance
and luck enter on far into cricket as into so
many other pursuits. Cricket is. In fact,
THE EKGMSHMEJf'S GAME.
Taste for it has Increased as mastery of It has
been gained, and even if baseball were com
parable to it as a game cricket ha3 so enor
mous a start that innovation will never catch
it. The rejoinder may be made there is no
room for both, but this is doubtful. Supposing
that baseball is intended to awakeneneral in
terest, and as rome qualities are to a cons'der
able'extent necessary to both games, the idea
will always exist that, men practicing base
ball are wasting time that might be devoted to
learning to play cricket. As an interesting
novelty the game is welcome. Its chance of
taking permanent hold on those who might be
cricketers is not large."
Jext week's programme has been definitely
arranged for the province". The boys will play
in Bristol on :Friday of this week. Their first
town after leaving London will be Birming
ham, and they will travel throughout England
and Scotland in the special train which has at
tracted so much attention here. Ward will
leave to-morrow in the North German steamer.
He has arranged to catch tbe boat at Queene
town, a fact which enabled him to play in to
day's game. He and Spalding have arrived at
an amicable agreement in regard to their sepa
ration. Ward, in other words, has been able to
present to Spalding reasons of sufficient co
gency for his separation, and to overcome
Spalding's natural objections to tbe New York
captain s apparent breach of contract.
Williamson still lies in bed. His wound heals
but slowly. There is no possibility that he will
he able to play eitber in England. Scotland, or
Ireland. At the same time he is not perma
nently injured. It is a flesh wound only.

LOCAL BALL GOSSIP.
Some Change Blade In the Schedule Few
Open Dntes.
Manager Phillips has arranged for the local
team to play the Columbus team here on Octo
ber 7. The borne team will also play a game
against the Mansfield, O., club on June 18, at
Mansfield. This is the with which Allen
played last year, and the Pittsburgers have
agreed to call at that city on their return from
Indianapolis.
The schedule is, indeed, a busy one tor tbe
local club as it has only five open dates during
the season. They are as follows: On May 27
there is an open date and the club has only to
travel from Washington to Philadelphia; Slay
31 is open, the club coming home from Phila
delphia; June 18 is open, but has been encaged
for Mansfield: July 3 is open at home and Sep
tember 4 is open, the club traveling between
New York and Boston.
It is likely, however, that the game between
Pittsburg and Philadelphia, scheduled for
Jlav 29, may be changed to May 27 soythat a
day's rest may be had on the day previous to
Decoration Day. Boston and Washington have
also, "with the consent of tbe League, changed
a date. The games between these two clubs,
scheduled to be plaved at Washington on May
7, will be played at Boston on the morning ot
Bunker Hill Day, June 17. Washington will
receive one-half of the receipts.
Manager Phillips has decided to have only
20.000 advertising sheets this year, instead of
40.000. the number used last year. There will
be 400 stands. All tho advertising work, will
be given to a local firm.
DENNY'S STATEMENT.
He Thinks That Ho nnd Bancroft Will Get
Alone All Right.
A special from Indianapolis to the New
York Sun says:
IxDiA.NAroL.is. March 13. President Brush
received a letter from Jerry Denny to-day. He
says he was about to sign with the Stockton
club when Brush's letter and contract was re
ceived. He returns the contract signed, and
concludes as follows: "Bancroft and myself
aid not get along very well at times while he
was with Providence, but we will let the past
rest and look to the future. I will do all I know
how to help him along. I am In first-class con
dition, plaving two and three hours a day. I
hope there" will be no record plavers in the team
next season, as they do the earnest workers an
Injury." . , , ,
The Chicago-All-America teams will play in
Indianapolis April 18. There is nothing in the
reported exchange of Healy, of Indianapolis,
for Whitney, of Washington.. It is not even
contemplated. Pitcher Getzein, late of the
Detroits. will play in Indianapolis, if he plays
at all. He would like to come here, but wants
more money than his classification allows him.
Paul Hines made a long, laborious and well
sustained "kick" over his classification. He
did not object to a reduction of salary so much
as he did being placed In the "B" class.
A GOOD IDEA.
Svrnrtwood Want to Toko His Club Through
tho TrI-Stnie Leasne.
Manager Swartwood, of the Hamilton clnb,
has written the directors of the club asking
permission to order the players to report in this
city and proceed on a tour through the Tri
State League cities. '
If Swartwood can get the permission sought
for he will commence bis proposed series of
games at Wheeling. After playing all or part
of the Tri-State League clubs he intends to
play against the Columbus team if arrange
ments can be made. Tho idea is a gooaone.
So far there are no exhibition games arranged
among the clubs of tbe League above named.
This fact would seem to insure a successful
trip from a financial standpoint.
ELECTED THEIR OFFICERS.
Tho Annual Meeting of tho St. Andrews'
Cricket Clnb.
The St. Andrews' Cricket Club, of Hazel
wood, has held its annual meeting and elected
officers for the next 12 months. The officers
are as follows: G. C Burgwin, President; J.
Stamei. Captain; William Hayes, "Vice Cap
tain; Secretary and Treasurer, William Stamei:
Committee, J. Stamei, G. Conn, T. Brownwicb,
S. Stamei, G. H. Bingham, J. Garland, J.
Blaze.
There was no change made in tho constitu
tion and by-laws. The club is In excellent
financial condition, and will continue to play
on the old grounds at Marion, B. fc O. R. R,
Anv clubs desiring games or information can
write William Stamei, Flower avenue. Hazel
wood. Myer Is Willing.
AtmoRA, Ili. March 13. Billy Myer was
seen here to-night regarding McAuliffe's latest
challenge, and asked whether he was willing to
fight McAulitfe again. "Will I fight himT" re
turned Billy, "I should say I would, aly money,
$2,500, is still up. That stuff says I am ready to
mfeet McAuliff e anywhere for a fight to a finish.
No crowd, either, this time. A square fight to
see who Is the best man. Have the spectators
limited to 25 on a side.
"If he wants to fight what did he draw his
money out for when he made his bluff a while
ago?" Mrer continued. "Since he pulled his
monev out last Thursday, 1 call it considerable
gall on his part to now challenge me to fight In
New York City. The money I have put up in
Cbicaco says I stand ready to fight him to a
finish."
Posillsts Classified.
New York, March 13. Billy Edwards gives
the following for the benefit of those In donbt:
"There seems to be considerable uncertainty
and unnecessary discussion regarding the
proper classification of professional and ama
teur fighting weights.- The following is correct
for. professionals: Feather-weight, under 112
pounds; lightweight, 112 to 133 pounds; middle
weight. 133 to 154 pounds; heavy-weight, over
154. The amateurs allow up to 116 pounds for
feather-weight and as high as 158 for middle
weight Also sometimes they permit the light
weight to run up to 137 pounds."
KUraln's Depnrtnrc.
New Yoek, March 13. Jake Kilrain, who is
matched to fight John L. Sullivan, sailed for
England this afternoon on the steamer Adri
atic to join Charley Mitchell, with whom ho
will make a tour of England. Billy O'Brien
and other well-known sporting men assembled
at the pier to see him off. Kilrain looks -well
but fat. He will trin Mitchell for his fight
with Smith, and return to America to get
ready for his own fight with Sullivan about
May L The Marquis or Queensberry was to
have sailed on the same steamer, but at the
last postponed his trip.
Why the Game Was Called.
In a letter to his brother John Tener ex
plains in a very interesting way why only five
innings were played by the ball teams in the
game at Rome. Tener goes on to say that
when the came had proceed for one or two in
nings the Italians began to run into the field
after the ball. A few of them ventured behind
the catcher and put out their feet to stop the
ball. Those, however, who stopped the ball
once in this way did not make a second try.
Finally tbe crowd on the field became so wild
that the game was called.
No Sunday Playing.
"Kansas City, Mo., March 13. The Lower
House of the Missouri Legislature seems bent
on overturning and reforming the sports of
the State. To-day favorable reports were made
by the Committee on Criminal Jurisprudence
on Mr. Moore's bill prohibiting the playing of
baseball on Sunday, and on Sir. McGarr's bill
to make criminal tbe sale of pools on baseball,
horse races, prize fights, cocking mains, elec
tions and all games of chance and contests.
Hawkins Wants a Go.
Helena, Mont., March 13. At the Cardiff
Donaldson exhibition here it was announced
from the stage that Billy Hawkins, lightweight
champion of Canada and Montana, would
challenge either Myers or McAuliffe for 2,500
a side and the championship of America.
Helena parties stand willing to put up the
money as soon as tbe preliminaries can be ar
ranged. Their First Appearance. '
The fine weather had considerable attraction
for baseball players yesterday. As a result, the
East End Athletics were out and had their
first try on the diamond this year. Tbey are
anxious to get into shape fortbe game between
them and the Pittsburgs, which takes place on
March SO.
Trying to Sober Up.
Sullivan is trying to recover from his spree at
Holyoke, Mass. He has been figuring con
spicuously at that city with female members of
the Rentz-Santley -troupe. His friends have
him in a hotel at Holyoke, and hope to get him
back to sobriety.

young Mitchell, of San Francisco, for a purse
of 1,500 and the middle-weight championship of

rooms of the Golden Gate Athletic Club to
night Billy Jordan was chosen referee. Tbe
first six rounds were more like a walking match
than a fight Brown, however, getting tbe worst
of the few blows that were exchanged.

Manager James Mutrie, of tho New
York Club left the city on a mysterious visit
last night No one knows where he went but
it is rumored that be has gono to see Mike
Tiernan. Mike has disregarded all requests
that have been made for his appearance in this
city, so it is said, and there is no doubt but
that the New York's manager has become un
easy. Tiernan has made a demand for a big
increase in salary which tbe club has refused
to grant; thus the case stands. Xf.'y. Sun.
Frank Herald, the Philadelphia pugilist
who once fought Kilrain, John L. Sullivan, Jne
Lannon and others, is again in the ring. His
speedy putting to sleep of Joe Godfrey at the
New York Athletic Club's monthly boxing
meeting on Saturday night has brought about
an offer of a good sized purse for him to fight
a New York heavyweight unknown. It is said
that tbe New York Athletic Club is raising the
Surse and that a prominent amateur who has
ecided to become a professional will be Her
ald's opponent Herald has returned to Phila
delphia to train.
Sam Bryant remarked to a Louisville re
porter last week: "Proctor Knott will be bet
ter this season than he was as a 2-year-old.
You see, he wasn't overworked last season,
like a good many 2-year-olds were, and there Is
not an unsound spot about him. I don't pro
pose to overwork bim this season, either, and
unless some accident happens, he will be the
boss of the turf for some time o come. As I
have said before, I don't Intend to start Knott
in tbe derby, because tbe training necessary to
go that distance and carry the weight would be
too hard. He will start at Memphis, and per
haps at Lexington and Nashville, but only
enough to exercise him. He will race here,
too, for that matter, but not in any of the big
stakes."
A PECULIAR POINT.
A Benefit of S1.000 Refused a Blind Mnn
Bccnnso or tbe Alleged Cause of His
Loss of Eye-Sight To bo Contested.
J. "Wesley Kinnear, Esq., yesterday en
tered suit'in Common Pleas Court No. 2 on
behalf of Daniel Humphries against the
National Benevolent Association of Indian
apolis, which has an agency in this city, to
recover S1.000, the amount of a policy held
by Humphries. It is alleged that on Sep
tember 12, 1887, Humphries took out a poli
cy for $1,000, to be paid, in case of acciden
tal death or total disability occasioned by ac
cident, the defendant agreeing therein to
pay a fnll death benefit in case of total disa
bility, such as would be the case if he were
to lose both hands or both feet or both eyes.
On June 15, plaiutift was struck in the eye
by a chip and the striking is alleged to
iave been an accident
He had lost one eye some years previous
to taking out the policy and that fact is
alleged to have been known by the agent
who wrote it After the loss of the other
eye plaintiff was totally disabled and with
in 36 hours after, had to be led on the streets
and has been in that condition ever since
and is now entirely blind. Some'time alter
tbe accident, Humphries alleges, the agent
of the company told him there was nothing
due him under the terms of the policy, hold
ing that the sight of the second eye injured
bad been lost on account of the loss of the
first, but that as a matter of charity be, the
agent, would give plaintiff 40 for a surren
der of the policy. He says, he gave it up
without knowing the effect and being
pressed by poverty, with a sick wife and a
number ofsmall children on his hands.
Since then, however, Humphries has made
up his mind that tbe agent s reasoning was
fallacious and that the reason for non-payment
assigned is of no force, hence the suit.
The plaintiff lives in a boat honse at the
foot of South Twentv-second street
EXAMINING CONDUCTORS.
Penn Examiners Pnt Panhandle Punchers
Through a Lively Mill.
A number of conductors of the Pennsyl
vania Company's lines have been in the city
for the past few days receiving instructions
from examiners concerning certain changes
made in tickets. They came from Indiana
and Ohio, and are confined chiefly to the
Panhandle road. Every year the Penn
Company examines its conductors on cer
tain points in "ticketology." If they are
found deficient in any respect, the examiners
give them the necessary pointers.

May Queen is Crowned.
LOTS OP WORK TO BE ACCOMPLISHED.
The Governor to be Too Busy to Address the Tonng
Hen's Tariff Clnb.,
The first words about the adjournment of
the Legislature were breathed yesterday.
State Chairman Andrews uttered them. He
thought April 25 would be a good time for
the lawmakers to shut up shop and go home
to their crops and fence building. Some of
the legislators think that too early. Gov
ernor Beaver doesn't seem to think it,
though. The probability is that May Day
will witness the breakup.
rrCOlI A STAFF CORRESPOITDEjrr.l
Haebisbueq, March 13. The first defi
nite step toward final adjournment of the
Legislature was taken to-day by State
Chairman Andrews, who rose to a question
of personal privilege and offered a resolu
tion to the effect that, if the Senate concur,
the Legislature shall adjonrn sine die on
April 25. Under the rules the resolution
was laid over until Friday.
The majority of the members are quite
willing to adjourn at the time fixed in the
resolution, if business can be sufficiently
expedited. Chairman Andrews is of the
opinion that it can be. Mr. Searden,
Chairman of the Committee on Appropria
tions, doesn't think the House can get
through with the necessary work by that
time. It is reported in a vague way that
the Bepublican leaders have said .they can
pass the appropriations and revenue bills
by that time, and that they are not very
particular about anything else. They are
not saying anything of that nature for pub
lication, however, but some of them are un
doubtedly in favor of adjourning as soon
after the 25th of April as possible.
MORE LIKE MAT FIBST.
It is quite likely the 1st of May will be
agreed upon as the date if enough Republi
cans can be held in line. At least three of
the Allegheny Senators will oppose fixing so
early a date for adjournment, and Senator
Key burn, of Philadelphia, Chairman of the
Senate Committee on Appropriations, is op
nosed to fixing any date whatever at the
present time. The ground of the opposition
is the lact that no appropriation bills have
yet reached the Senate from the House.
Senator Beyburn talks quite plainly on
the subject, and says he is opposed to fixing
a date lor adjournment until all the appro
priation bills are in the hands of the Senate.
""We want sufficient time to examine them:"
he said, "and we should send them to the
Governor so far in advance of adjournment
that any objections-he may have may be
communicated to the Legislature in time for
consideration. I don't want to see the ap
propriation bills and the revenue bills come
in here with a rush in the last days of the
session, so that we will have to
WOEK DAT AND NIGHT,
and turn out our work imperfectly. "Why,
two years ago, I and some other members of
the Appropriations Committee didn't have
our clothing off for days at a time, and then
the Governor trimmed them down at his
pleasure after we had gone home.
"As to the revenue bill," remarked
Senator Beyburo, "I don't think there is
any need lor it all. "We have plenty-of
revenue, if it was used properly. "What is
the use of tieing up the State'slmoney in the
sinking fund, where it is doing the State no
good whatever, and why pay a premium for
State bonds when the money is needed for
other purposes? A man that would stint
his family to pay debts that are not due
would not be considered a very good sort of
a man, vet that is exactly what the State of
Pennsylvania is being made to do with her
institutions. The financial policy is all
wrong. "Why, look at what was done
awhile ago, when there was 51.498.000 in
cash and 51,000,000 in United States bondsin'J
the sinking lund. Then interest-bearing
bonds were sold to the detriment of the
State. "What for? Possibly so that some
one could draw interest on the cash.
A. SUGGESTED IMPEOTEMENT.
"Another point against the State's finan
cial policy is the fact that it pays 56,000 per
annum to the Farmers' and Mechanics' Na
tional Bank, of Philadelphia, to act as its
financial agent, yet it had to pay the bank
a commission on the sale of these bonds.
In addition, it keeps a very large sum ot
money on deposit in this same hank; It
looks to me as though there might be quite
an improvement on this manner of doing
business."
A gentleman familiar with the sale of
bonds in question says thej" were disposed of
when the late A. "Wilson Norris was
Auditor General, for the purpose of buying
a big block of State bonds, but when the
holder of the latter found the State ready to
buy he was unwilling to.-complete the table
except at such a premium that the sinking
iund commissioners did not feel like closing
with him.
Hon. M. B. Lemon, of Pittsburg, called
on Governor Beaver to-day, to invite him to
the reception of the Young Men's Bepubli
can Tariff Club. The Governor couldn't
promise to be on hand, owing to the fact
that the proposed dateot adjournment of the
Legislature will conflict in a measure with
the date of the reception. The Governor
will have his time fully occupied with bills
in case the adjournment is fixed at or near
the proposed time. He is in favor, how
ever, both of the early adjournment and of

PEKSXSTEST IK PROTESTING;
A Continuance of the Objections to the Tax
of 8 Mills.
rraOlIA STATFCOlmESrONDIST.l
Habbisbtjbg, March 13. Representa
tive Dravo has received a letter from T.
Mellon, of T. Mellon & Sons' Bank, of
Pittsburg, accompanying a remonstrance
against the 8-mill tax. The letter says:
"Without flattery, I think no , one of
our 'members in the House better under
stood the truth of the economic principle
that all such taxes fall upon the uses
of consumer, as tbe case maybe. You may
tax an Industry out of existence, but If it lives,
its patrons must pay operating expenses and
some protlts to the stockholders, beside. Atax
on gross receipts Is meant to tax where there is
no profits to tax the weaklings out of exist
ence, and this Is against public policy.
"The letter concludes by stating that those
who feel themselves aggrieved by "such ex
tortion" will try to protect themselves br
combination, "and between this and the
next election for members and State officers,
try to open the eyes of the workingmen and
business men to the fact that the assertions
of demagogues to the effect that such a tax
on soulless corporations is the sheerest non
sense." In harmony with the foregoing was the
accompanying petition, prepared and signed
at a meeting of representatives of street car
companies and other companies and corpora
tions in Pittsburg, on March 9. T. Mellon

The Dose is Strong, and Frelsht Men Take

What a wry lace the local commercial

they think of that latest andmost diabolical
amendment to the inter-State law.
"I tell you the boys are not cutting rates
these days," said one of them yesterday.
"The new law is a 'corker' and none of us
are taking any chances. The amendment
puts the freight hustlers in a new and un
pleasant position. Think of two years in a

"We don't like the law; neither do the ship

CAMPBELL & DICK
IN A YERI BAD BOX;
Allegheny Councils MnrHot Hro a Qaornm
To-Nlglit Some Very Important Mat
ters Requiring; Immediate Attention. .
The meeting of Allegheny Councils to
night will be one of the most, if not the
most, important held dnring the year. All
the business that is before that body must
be disposed of finally or it will be
dead. The session will be a
long one, as matters that cannot
be delayed will come up for consideration.
Among them are the appropriation ordi
nance and the awarding ot the contract for
fuel at the water woiks. The former will
undoubtedly go through, as the appropria
tions must be made before the close of the
fiscal year, but as the ordinance cannot be
passed in bo'th branches of Councils on the
same evening a special meeting of the Com
mon branch will be held on Monday night.
There will be trouble on the fuel contract
for the water works which may cause some
very strange complications. As published
in this paper the other day the contract for
fuel was awarded to Charles Jutte, the coal
operator, his bid bejirg 54 99 per 100 bushels,
while the Allegheny Heating Company bid
$22,000 for supplying enough eas to run the
works for a year beginning April 1.
This is an increase of 54,500 over
the cost of gas last year. The committee
objected to the advance, and recommended
the coal bid, which Mr. Armstrong, Super
intendent of the water works, claims will
make the cost of the fuel 535,000 a year.
There was a strong opposition to tbe move
ment to return to coal, but the motion was
carried by a vote of 4 to 3, Mr. Henricks
not voting because he is interested in the
natural gas company.
This action caused a great deal of talk
among the Councilmen, and several of them
appeared last night and began to fiznre on
the two bids. Mr. McDonald, who had
woted for coal, spent two hours' time last
nizht in investigating the matter. He' be
lieves that coal will be cheaper, but a com
parison of figures with the expenditures for
fuel in 1885 when natural gas was intro
duced shows that coal cost 510,349 07 and
gas for 109 days, $2,283 75.
At this time only 13,000,000 gallons of
water were pumped each day, and now the
capacity of the water works is 20,000,000
gallons a day.
The report will go into Councils to-night
recommendine the return to coal, but it is
said a minority report will also be pre
sented showing that it the contract is not
awarded to the natural gas company the
city will lose about 513,000.
THIS IS ENC0UEAGING?.
Mr. Illsley Predicts That Natural Gas Will
Last for Tears.
Mr. "W. E. Schmertz went to New York'
last night on business of great importance
to Pittsburg, so he said. He was provok
ingly non-committal as to its import, but
will divulge when he .comes back. Mr.
Schmertz has in his possession the report of
Mr. Illsley, who was sent out here by a New
York syndicate to look into natural gas.
The gentleman, he said, was in the city
about three weeks ago, and when he lett
Mr. Schmertz was afraid his report would
be unfavorable.
"Indeed," said he, ''I was greatly sur
prised when I read the report. It has never
been published. Mr. Illsley says that
natural gas will not give out for rears to
come. He visited all the known gas fields,
and is convinced that the supply is almost
inexhaustible. He argues that God when
he gives toj humanity is never niggardly.
This is true of oil and coal, which is still
found in abundance, and is true also of
natural gas. Mr. Illsley holds that the
palmy days of gas are yet to come. I wish
that all Pittsburgers could read his report
and take courage.
"The Philadelphia Companyis putting
more gas in the city to-day than it ever did
before. On cold "days, when the mills are
in full blast, it is proven that 33'A per cent
more gas is consumed. This is why it gives
out iu certain parts of the city. There is
really plenty of gas all the time, but not
enough to supply the increased amount
used. More' wells should be bored. This
will avoid the shortage."
DEATH TO BAD INDIANS.
Consumption Carrying Off Those Who Are
Closely Confined.
SPECIAL TEUEOBAK TO THI DISPATCH. 1
Columbus, O., March 13. About eight
months ago ten Apache Indians and one
half-breed were received at the Ohio Peni
tentiary, from Arizona, they being United
States prisoners convicted of murder and
manslaughter. Upon their arrival they
were put to work, the making of chairs
being their task. This meant close confine
ment, and in a short time many of the
Indians were more or less ill.
A month, ago Loco Jim died of consump
tion, and he was followed two days ago by
Ilth Kah, who also had consumption. Two
more are now in the hospital suffering from
the same disease, and the prison physicians
state that all are becoming seriously af
fected by the climate. The authorities are
talking of moving" the remainder.
