LAID TOTHELOTTERY
How Young Harry Flaim Ex
cuses His Embezzlement.
IT FOOTS UP AT $35,297,
let He Says He Was Induced to Begin
Taking it Just for Luck.
THEN HE SPECULATED IN STOCKS.
A Bank Official Admits There Was a Little
lottery Syndicate.
THE OBJECT OP TO-DAI'S U. S. HEAEIKG
The preliminary hearing in the embezzle
ment case of the Marine National Bank
against its bookkeeper, Harry H. Flann
(not Flamm, as a good many have known
and called him), trill be held before United
States Commissioner JlcCandless, in the
latter's office, at 2 o'clock this afternoon.
The only object of the hearing is to try
and get Flann out of jail on bail. The
Commissioner will be asked to fix the
amount of bail, and, if the yonng man's at
torneys can find somebody to go on the
bond, be will be released. Mr. HcCandless
would not state yesterday what amount of
bail would be required; but it will be suf
ficient to satisfy the bank, in the
event of Flann's non-appearance for
trial. The latter event will not
transpire until the third Monday in Octo
' ber, as the United States Court will not sit
in this city before that time. The Court
will sit at Erie in July, and at Scran ton in
.September. To try the case at either or these
places, would entail too much expense upon
the prosecution, and it will lie over until
October.
If Flann Is cot released upon bail to-day,
he will hare to stay in jail until October.
It was learned yesterday that the linefcf
defense to be offered by joung Flann is that
the other employes of the bank, one of whom
was his superior officer, really made him c
into the lottery hazard by orcanizinj; a club in
the bank. He also states, that another em
ploye in the bank induced him to go into
SOME STOCK TBANSACTIONS
by which he lost thousands of dollars. His as
sociate agreed to take his chances, and share
half the losses in the event of his losing. The
scheme was, it is "said, acreed to, and Flann
lost. "When the time came to pay up, bis part
ner, it is alleged, backed out of the agreement
and left him to stand the brunt of it. This
really caused his heaviest losses, it is claimed,
and he had to draw on the bank to make them
tip. The employe of the bank, when questioned
yesterday about the charge, said that it was
not true.
A representative of The. Dispatch, after
considerable trouhle,obtained an Interview with
young Flann yesterday afternoon In iaiL He
at first refused to talk, saying that he had been
so advised by his attorneys. He afterward de
cided, however, to give his side of the story,
and said:
"The newspapers have treated me very un
justly and said everything that was bad abont
me. I wonld not mind it so much if the stories
were true, but they are not. At the present
time it would do my side of the case no good to
talk for publication, but I cannot restrain my
self from answering the attacks of some people
thronsh the newspapers.
"In the Brst place, I would like to publicly
deny that there is any woman in the case, and
I did cot spend my nights away from home.
Since I have been married I have been athome
five nights of the week and I have cot spent a
dollar in any of the illegitimate haunts since
that time. 1 did not work for Joseph Home &
Co- and consequently could not nave stolen
anything from that firm.
"My position at the bank was that of individ
ual bookkeeper, and the assistant tellersbip
was forced upon me. I entered the employ of
the bank three years ago this fall, and had
been there but a few months when I began to
speculate One of my associates came to roe
and asked me to join a lottery club that was
being formed by a few of the bank employes.
Wc "played' every month, and the employe I
speak of is 'playing1 it yet.
ALLEGED NECESSITY OP IT.
"My salary at the bank was not very large,
and the most of it I had to spend for the sup
port of my mother. To get the money to meet
the assessments of the club, I had to draw on
the funds of the bank, which passed through
my hands. The amounts were small at first,
and I supposed that I would be able to make a
winning and pay it back before the money
wonld be missed.
"After I had lost considerable money at the
lottery scheme, another associate in the bank
asked me to invest in some stocks, which, he
claimed, were 'paying big.' I thought 1 conld
reconp my lottery losses by this means: but, in
stead of getting out, I got deeper in the mire
every month. He said we would form a part
nership and play' the stocks on shares. If I
lost, he was to stand half of it: but, when the
time came to 'put up1 ho was not there.
"1 worked for Attorney Porte for two years,
and in all that time there was never a word
said about my honesty or my character. The
hundreds of people who know me will not be
lieve that 1 am as black as painted."
Mr. Flann shows the wear and tear of his
confinement, and, while speaking to the report
er, his voice trembled with suppressed emo
tion. Dozens of people have called to see him;
hut. as they went out of curiosity, the jail offi
cials have politely refnsed tbein admittance.
The prisoner is a member of several secret so
cieties, and a number of his brother members
have called to see him, with a view ot helping
him out. i
In regard to Mr. Flann's insinuations against
his late associates in the bank, the reporter ap
proached Mr. George MacCrum, the teller, and
interrogated him about the matter. Mr. Mac
Crum oaia:
'The charges are without foundation, and
there is nothing in them. It is true that some
of the other employes did play lottery; hut not
in the manner Flann states. There was a little
syndicate here
TO BUT LOTTEET TICKETS,
but the employes never went into the business
on an extensive scale. They put in 12 or S3
apiece every month; but the speculation did
cot extend beyond this. The story about the
stock speculation I know nothing whatever
about, and do not take much stock in it. We
have already, said too much about the matter
in the newspapers, and had better await the
bearing to-morrow. No; Mr. Flann was not
forced in the assistant tellership of the bank."
It was published yesterday that "William M.
Granger, the general agent of the Guarantee
Company of North America, had said that his
company woula not pay the bond of 5,000 they
cad guaranteed Flann for, on account of tho
bank allowing him to handle money. Mr.
Granger said yesterday:
"We will certainly pay the bond, if we think
we are'liable for tbo amount. So far we have
cad no claim presented, cor any official notice
from the bank that they want the money. We
bonded him as a bookkeeper; out there will be
no trouble about payment."
James H. Porte, Esq., one of Flann's attor
neys, said: "I am going to see Major Montooth,
of the prosecution, and see what can be done
in the way of a compromise.
' YEEY DIFFEBEXT YIEWS.
"I think we will have the young man ontof
jail to-morrow, and do not anticipate much
trouble getting ball for him."
Major Montooth, when seen, said: There
will be no compromise, as far as I know. The
case is now in the hands of the Government,
whose officers have entire charge in the matter.
The attorneys for the defense may ask tho
bank for leniency: but I cannot see how tho
case can be compromised. It is the duty of
Flann's friends to turn over every dollar they
can get of the money to the bank. Then they
may ask for leniency."
Tho exact amount of the defalcation, as dis
covered by a thorough overhauling of the
books, is $35,297. Flann has been in the em
ploy of the bans: just exactly two years and
tcren month.

THE JOLLY BBEWEBS.
They Had Their First Excursion Yesterday
A Day of Great Plensure Chninpacne
and Fun Flowed Freely.
Tho members of the Allegheny County
Brewers' Association and their families went
on an excursion yesterday, which turned out
to be a day of thorough pleasure and whole
some enjoyment.
It was the first time the brewers had an out
ing and everybody was anxious to do bis ut
most to make the affair a success.
The brewers had two objects in giving the
excursion, the first was to give vent to their
feelings of satisfaction on account of the de
feat ot the Constitutional amendment and the
other to give their families an opportunity of
becoming acquainted with each other. That
the desired result was effected conld have
been easily demonstrated by the manner in
which the excursionists returned from their
trip last night.
The steamer Mayflower had been chartered
for the occasion and at 9 o'clock yesterday
morning the anchors of tho beautiful ship were
lifted ana the trip commenced to go down the
Ohio. Tbere were about 200 people aboard, the
brewers, theia wives and their children,. Slowly
tho party was carried along on the waves and
the music of the Cathedral Band, which had
been hired for the purpose, blended very har
moniously with the feelings of the excur
sionists and the low, rumbling sounds of the
water's waves.
The Mayflower went down the river as far as
Davis Island dam.whero she turned and headed
ktraight toward the Monongahela. The run
was continued up as far as Monongahela City.
By this time the tables were laid and the pleas
ure seekers sat down to dinner. Captain Clark
had taken special trouble in making the bill ot
fare unusually temnting. and the guests seemed
to appreciate his efforts in a befitting manner.
Champagne bottles were untied one after an
other, and as each cork flew up against the
rr.ilinc the smiles and lauzhter of the merry
brewers increased. Many a good old story was
told and toasts wero given in honor ot the
President of the Brewers' Association, on ac
countof the defeat of the amendment and in
honor of all the guests present.
After dinner the boat took her homeward
tack, and with singing and jubilating tho party
got back to town.
Captain Clark, of the Mayflower, said when
the excursion returned to the Monongahela
wharf, that in all his experience as a steamboat
captain he had never accommodated a lot of
people so jolly, so harmonious and so pleasant
as the brewers of Allegheny county and their
families.
AT SAINT MAEI'S ACADEMY.
The Tonus; Ladles Who Took First Honors
nt the Commencement.
The exhibition ball of the new Convent of
Mercy, on Webster avenue, was packed to suf
focation yesterday afternoon with representa
tives of the best Catholic families in the two
cities, gathered to witness the exercises of the
annual commencement of St. Mary's Academy.
The affair was under the charge of the Sisters,
who were justly proud of the performances of
the children. At the close of the exercises
Father Murphy, President of the Holy Ghost
College, paid a glowing tribute to the nuns
wno taught the children and prepared them for
their battle of life.
The programme of exercises was made up of
recitations, vocal and instrumental solos,
dramatic performances and the distribution of
the crowns, medals, etc. The following young
ladies were presented with gold medals:
For attendance Misses Kate McClafferty, S.
Fenesy, E. McSteen, N. McGovern, Kittle Fox.

It Will bo Arranged at a Meeting to be Held
To-.IIorrow.

except in the shade and prescription branches.
A conference on the former will be held in
New York City to-morrow, and President
Smith, of the American Flint Glass Workers'
Union, will attend. He does not anticipate any
trouble and believes that a satisfactory scale
will be arranged.
The prescription scale will cot expire until
fall, when a new one will be prepared. It may
be the samo as the one now in force.
The first annual reunion of the American
Flints will be held at Bock Point on Saturday,
and a large crowd is expected to be present.
BAD BUSINESS.
A Yonng Blood Arrested for Impersonating
an Officer.
John Thomas, a young gentleman who pur
sues tho "even tenor otitis way" without
performing any named duty but that of living
in a mysterious manner, was arrested by
Inspector McAleese at Fonrth avenue and
Market street shortly before midnight, for
impersonating an officer.
He attempted, it is alleged, to arrest tw
men in a honse on Second avenue, but they
suspected that he was a pseudo policeman, and
informed McAleese, who arrested him. His

NATURAL GAS A BAD THING FOR THEM
This is practically plumbers week in

craft irom almost every State in the Union,
in Lafayette Hall
last evening, demon"
strated the fact that
they are "good peo
ple;" an essential
article and a power
in the community in
more ways than one.

ont here to confer
with each other on
subjects for their

at large, surely can set

tightly bind the thread of union as an organi
zation of their own. They are held up to ridi
cule in the winter, even as the cold and chilly
dispenser of ice has to suffer in the summer.
The prejudicial public cry is:
Our humanity thints few
On this earth are ever due;
Their home is closely class1 d with torrid summer.
The bill that they send In
Is unmitigated sin.
Those merciless and avaricious plumbers.
This very little subject was broaches to most
of the prominent plumbers yesterday by a
Dispatch man, and some treated it seriously,
while others enjoyed it with jocular comment.
THINGS TO BK PAID FOE.
James Mulr, of New York, who is one of tho
oldest plumbers, and conceded to be very rich,
smiled as the reporter
questioned him about
it. "It is just like any
good business; it takes
time, labor and care,
and we must have
some remuneration
for it," he said. "The
people seem to think
our business is child's
play."
"What city has tho
largest plumbing in
terests ana aoes tne
must uusmes&f our.
Mulr was asked.
"Naturally one would
say New York."
A gentleman from
Eimira, who wouldn't
answer the reporter's
questions, interrupted
Mr. Mnlr by saying:
George Sands, Our
Plumbers' Secretary.
"I think Chicago has the largest plumbing
patronago in this country, judging from the
number of people employed. One firm alone
there has 300 men."
"It that's the case," rejoined Mr. Mulr, ."it
beats New York; no firm there has that many
men."
James Walker, of Eimira, said, in response
to the "bill" question: "Yes, we all wear dia
monds, but we have had to earn them."
"Has the discovery of natural gas generally
helped your business?" asked the reporter.
"No; if anything it has been indirectly of
detriment so far as elevating it is concerned.
The employment of common, everyday laborers
to put in pipes, because It is cheaper, is the
reason for this."
Charles G. York, of Baltimore, a very bright
gentleman, said: "Plumbers' bills are the butt
of the people, becanse they have not the right
conception of our business. .Everything we
touch or handle is money, in one sense: that is,
piping material, labor and the care which, to
successfully give satisfaction, takes time. A
supposed small leak or any little matter in our
business requires strictest attention, or a whole
system of water pipes, gas or sewerage may be
ruined. Maryland is the only State which has
a sanitary law requiring every plumber to pass,
an examination before dotug business. I don't
know mnch abont your natnral gas. I admire
it though for its simplicity in its piping and
usage."
HEIGHT MEN TTEEE THESE.
Some of the most prominent men in their
own cities were active in the convention, where
bright arguments, witty repartee and some
times spirited spats took place in order to en
liven the occasion with three essentials for a
conjugal gathering: business, wit and good
feeling.
The President of the National Association of
Plumbers. John Tratnor, of Baltimore, re
quested the session in a most parliamentary
and dignified way, to come to order, assisted by
Secretary Cory, of Baltimore. The Baltimore
delegation presented the President with a new
gavel as a mark of esteem.
The principal part of the afternoon was
taken up with the reading of credentials from
the different representatives, which were re
ceived irom 195 delegates. Some little trouble
accompanied this, from the fact that a
few who were there had not been
mentioned. Especially did Missouri and the
State of Kansas become engaged in an argu
ment, all because Kansas City's committee and
Kansas States's delegates were inadvertantly
considered one body. An explanation was
made and settlement effected readily; but
ubiquitous Boston, represented by J. L.
Doolin, with characteristic culture, sat down
upon the motion ot Chicago, made by Mr.
Young, that a committee on resolutions be ap
pointed. The yeas and nays were so evebly di
vided npor; the call of tho president for a vote
of acclamation that "division" and count was
requested, Boston won on this by a vote of
73 to 70.
Major Foster, of Noriolk, Va the first Presi
dent and one of the original organizers of the
association, was present, and with bis com
mandingpresence and Southerrf urbanity of
manner lent a vast amount of dignity to the
meeting. The Dispatch writer sat down and
talked with him. He said, whet asked about
the big bills of plumbers:
"That's a mistake; we have to outlay more
than we take in in nino cases out of ten. There
are fewer plumbers growing rich than men of
any other class of business. There is a strong
disposition among the general association to
have nothing but "day work" and pay ior the
material as it is used in the contract. This
is simply to satisfy popular clamor and to prove
that we do not charge beyond reason."
L. E. Goodman ana L. D. Cross were ap
pointed auditors for the accounts of Treasurer
and Secretary.
he leaded to new" yoek.
Edward Murphy, of New York, who is a
very brilliant man and intelligent writer on
sanitary subjects, entered into the spirit of
the meeting occasionally. He said: "We are
cow firmly organized and steadily growing in a
systematic manner. I think New York has the
greatest plumbing interests, on account of
size. Your natnral gas here must be of benefit
financially to the employers; bnt as far as onr
distinctive business Is concerned, it does not
enhance it. Most anybody can lay pipes.
There are most intricate things in practical
plumbing, cot taken into consideration by
cvery-day people; therefore the enormous bins
which we are, accused of charging is a one
sided issue, held up by those who really receive
a benefit from us."
Letters of regret were read from people in
almost every State, which consumed time, as
also did the reports of committees in different
sections on the pertinent subject of plumbing.
Some of the richest men of the large cities,
who are accredited with being "away up" in
tho matter of money, cheerfully grasped the
hardened band of the humbler members of tho
organization who are here representing their
respective places. They are all good, gay boys.
Mr. Davlin, of Boston, was a very active man
in the meeting. He said that be treated the
little witty thrusts of the papers at the plumb
ers with philosophical enjoyment ''coming, as
I do, from the shadows of Harvard."
SOME REAL BUSINESS.
Aside from the airiness of a few Incidental
remarks, good solid business was being trans
acted. The report of tho Committee on Ap
prenticeship was presented. It in substance
treats upon the training of boys employed by
plumbers to a degree of practical proficiency,

THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH,
prenticeshlp Committee. Tho report was ac
cepted. Charles H. Humbert, President of the City
Committee, was energetically working in en
deavors to make the visitors happy. He dis
credited the statement that plumbers were all
rich, due to overcharging their customers.
Chicago, he thought, was. the best plumbing
city. "Natural gas," he said, "has only in a
measure benefited us, for the reason that an in
ferior class of workmen has been given much
work on account of cheapness. Plumbing is
just like any other business, in this way: that
you can get good work by paying Jor it. You
can buy shoes for SI per pair, but they won't
wear long."
Other similar talks were given to the reporter;
but limited space stops them.
The plumbers, many of whom are accom
panied by their wives, will remain until Friday,
during which time a banquet, excursion and
other pleasantries will be scattered among
them, which win "solder the ties of friendship"
with Pittsburg together tighter than at the
preceding six conventions.

THECONTEACTISLET
Allegheny's. Aquatic Conservatory
Will Be Built at Once.
HENRY PHIPPS, JE'S. GIFT.
The Builders Say It Will Be the Terr
Finest in the Country.
ALL THE AERANGEMENTS COMPLETE
The contract for the building of the
aquatic conservatory in the Allegheny
Parks, donated by Henry Phipps, Jr., was
let last night and work on it will be com
menced this week. It will be the finest in
the land, and before the bleak, chilly winds
of November begin to blow the residents of
this section will have an opportunity of.
seeing what they never saw before. "When
the Allegheny Park Committee accepted
Mr. Phipps' gift the other day tho matter
was left in the hands of Superintendent
Hamilton, John Walker and O. P. Scaife
as a committeo to make the arrangements and
let the contract. Accompanying the offer was
a check for a large sum of money, and if it
docs not cover the amount needed more will
be forthcoming.
Mr. Walker is absent from the city, but bis
colleagues on the committee sent letters and
plans to the only two large horticultural build
ers in the country and received their bids for
the work. They are Lord & Burnham and
Thomas W. Weathered, of New York. Tho
former had the contract and constructed the
greenhouses presented by Mr. Phipps that are
now in tho parks.
INVITED TO EXECUTE IT.
The latter, however, put in a better bid, and
were requested by the commission to visit Al
legheny at once and sign a contract. A repre
sentative of the company, Mr. Charles Weath
ered, responded to the call and the contract
was signed last evening. This firm will begin
work at once on tho aquatic conservatory.
After the usual formalities of signing a con
tract had been gone through with Superintend
ent Hamilton was seen by a Dispatch repre
sentative. He said: "AH the arrangements
have been completed and work will be com
menced at once. We will build the foundation
and have everything in readiness for the super
structure by September L The company that
is to do tho work will begin work immediately
and will have the conservatory ready by No
vember 1. We have signed the contract, that
is Mr. Scaife and myself, Mr. Walker being
absent m Colorado, and have been assured that
thero will be no delay in the construction of
the conservatory. From the plans furnished
by the company that is to do the work I can
say that it will be, without a doubt, the finest
in the United States."
ONLY TWO OtHEES LIKE IT.
Mr. Weathered, who was present at the time,
said: "There are only two fine aquatic con
servatories in the country and about a dozen
small ones. The largest are those owned by
the late Governor Samuel J.Tilden at his
home at Graystone, and William S. Kimball,
ot Rochester, N. Y. The Tilden conservatory
is probably more ornamental, but that of Mr.
Kimball is better arranged. The one we pro
pose to build for Allegheny will be the finest
in the country. Tbero will be double as much
glass used in this as in any other that we have
ever built."
Mr. Phipps, the donor, was not present when
the conference was held and the contract
signed, as he had left the entire matter in the
hands of tbe commission he had appointed.
He left last night with his family for tbe Thou
sand Islands, where he will remain during tbe
summer months. Upon his return be will
likely find tbe citizens of the Northside enjoy
ing tho result of bis generous gift.

IN MUTE ELOQUENCE.
Tbo Attractive Closing Exercises at Edge
wood's Institution Dr. Brown's Resig
nation Takes EOVcc
As was intimated in The Dispatch of yes
terday, which published exclusively and in ad
vance the resignation of Rev. John G. Brown,
D. DM as principal of the Western Pennsylva
nia Institution for the Deaf and Dumb at Edge
wood, that event was the one of chief,
though it was the one of most melancholy, in
terest in connection with yesterday's closing
exercises at the Institution. The good doctor's
21 years of work for deaf tautes in this vicinity
need not again be reviewed, as it was quite
fully in these columns yesterday; but it is suf
ficient to add that his successor will havo to be
a mighty good and kind man to fill tbe place
which this great-hearted and benevolent in
structor has made at the bead of the institution
he founded.
Tbe attendance at the closing exercises yes
terday was quite larce, and inclnded many in
terested ones from Pittsburg. The entertain
ment, so like others of its class that have been
annually described at length by the city press,
was only more fascinating than usual from tbe
fact that its young actors were more proficient
than their predecessors in that eloquent,
though silent, interpretation of Ideas through
gestures, which finds improved forms of ex
pression each succeeding year. The following
programme was well rendered by the best pu
pils and enjojed by all:

14. Valedictory Essay, "My School Days,"

15. Presentation or Certificates.
Benediction.
There was a wealth of meaning in both the
salutatory and the valedictory not only, but in
tbe intervening numbers also a meaning fnll
of f nn at times, but more plethoric in pathos
by reason of the intense earnestness so pecul
iar to those who have heartily taken hold of
the more difficult, though not the less lucid, of
all tbe forms of expression. The sign language
has been reduced t a very nicety in the poetry
of motion at Edgewood. and its new beauties,
as well brought out in the exercisos yesterday,
reflected most creditably upon the efficient
work down by Dr. Brown and his assistant in
structors during tbe past year.
THEI TARRIED IN PITTSBURG.
A Conple From Indian Territory Stops Over
to bo Married.
James Lewis and Miss Susan Briggs, both of
Indian Territory, were united in marriage, yes
terday, in the office ot Dr. Donglass. The story
of their courtship is rather romantic. Lewis is
from Schuylkill county. He went to tbe In
dian Territory where he became a gold miner.
He prospered and sent for his wife, who fol
lowed him, and they established a little home
in the mining town where he worked.
Death came and carried away Mrs. Lewis,
leaving him with ono littlo child. He wrote
home and asked his late wife's sister. Miss Susan
Briggs. to come and care for tbe babe. She did
so, and for a year cuarded it In the meantime
he managed to sell out bis claims at a good
profit, and, bringing bis sister-in-law and child
with him started for his old borne. Love bad
been at work, however, and at Pittsburg Mr.
Lewis and Miss Briggs procured a marriage
license and were united. After tbe wedding
they continued their journey homeward.
Allcgbcnj's Summer Hospital.
There may be some trouble over the summer
hospital for Allegheny, as some of the members
now refuse to sign the lease. Mr. Einstein, one
of the members of tbe committee who favored
the scheme, feels very badly over the matter,
as be has received a number of applications :
for admission from pay patients.
Killed Between Two Cars.
Thomas Giblonan employe of the Pan
handle Railroad, was fatally injured between
two cars at Sheridan station yesterday morn

PURE WATER.
Chemically Pare and Perfectly Clear Water
Near at Hand.
Messrs. Haller, Beck & Co. are now giv
ing away large quantities of the pure water
that condenses from the evaporated artesian
water used at their saltworks on Rebecca
street, Allegheny. A chemical analysis
shows this condensed water to be perfectly
pure. Messrs. Heenan and Brown, both
residents ot Allegheny, who have just re
turned from Johnstown, report great quan
tities of filth being dumped into the river
there, and say that if the people conld see
these dumps they certainly would not drink
any river water. Many families are secur
ing the pure water from Messrs. Haller,
Beck & Co. for drinking and cooking pur
poses. The firm is preparing a reservoir for
saving this condensed water, and would be
glad to have all persons avail themselves of
it. It will be free to all for the present. No
filtering needed. The' water is clear as
