Tired of Prosecuting Sellers, Con sumers Will be Arrested. CARLISLE WILL FINE THEM 525. ,7hs jp. & 0. Alderman Says the Supremo Court Decision Applies. THE CAPTAIN CORRECTS MISTAKES. Captain Wishart is weary of prosecuting men lor Sunday selling with no permanent effect in inducing them to desist. For sev eral consecutive Sundays his agents nave collected evidence against Drnggist Kaer cher, "Milk-Shake" Martin, the Casino Museum vendor, and one or two others, and informations have been made on Monday, followed by trials later in the week; but, with unquenchable ardor, the violators have opened up on the succeeding Sunday, fract uring the day of rest. Besides, it is late in the season, and the lemonade, milk-shake and soda water trill soon be out of date temporarily. Tiie Law and Order chief has a new plan which will be brought to bear next Sunday. 2fot only will the sellers be informed agast and duly arrested, but the buyers will share the fame fate that is if they can be found the following day. The unwitting consumer ot the palate-cheering milk-shake will quench his thirst next Sunday with the cold and fishy eyes of the Law and Order myrmidons upon him to his peril. Infor mations will be laid the next day, and Al derman Carlisle will do a land office busi ness imposing the same fine as in the cases against sellers. At least this is the pro gramme. HE WILL FINE TIIE1I. Alderman Carlisle was seen last night in regard to this pleasing prospect for the . thirsty public. He was loath to admit that the story was true, and finally, when pressed, admitted that Captain Wishart had said that he "might" change his tactics as indicated. "Will you fine those who are arrested on the charge of buying on Sunday?" "It will be ?25 and costs for each and everyone of them. Of course I shall fine anybody arrested on the charge of buying on Sunday. The Supreme Court held that the buyer was as culpable as the seller on the old principle that 'it takes two to make a bargain,' and the law as construed is so .plain that I do not believe that anyone will appeal. Furthermore, I believe that this plan will wind up Sunday selling in Pitts, burg, for where there is one seller there are hundreds of buyers, all of tnem equally liable. The Brooks law explicitly says that those iound in an illicit whisky or beer concern arc equally liable to fine with the proprietor, and the Supreme Court has decided positively upon the constitution ality of the Brooks law." "Then this move is not bluff?" asked the reporter. "It is my dnty to administer the law, and I shall fine anvone brought before me on a charge of Sunday buying," said the Alder man. A KECKUITKf G LEAGUE. "One would think," observed Mr. Car lisle, with cutting sarcasm, "that some newspaper men consort only with gamblers and other disreputable people, to judge from what they say of the Law and Order League. It is not on its last legs. On the contrary, where it had one friend two years agoitha3 20 now. This talk about per suading people to sell and then prosecuting them is a lie. I will give you or anyone else $100 if you can produce a case in which the seller did not break the law of his own free will. Think of the expenses which have been put on the league by the ignoring of the plainest kind of cases by the grand juryl Captain Wish art is doing a noble work in restoring the morals of this community, and he is univer sally respected" and mnch more in the same strain of eloquent enconium upon Captain Wishart, past, present and future. There were five cases entered before Al derman Carlisle yesterday and no hearings. He refused to give the names of the prose cuted parties. HE DENIES THE CHARGE. Captain Wishart Was Not Assaulted, Be cause He Was nt Home. An afternoon paper printed a story yester day stating that Captain Wishart had been assaulted on Sunday morning by an ex saloon keeper from Penn avenue. It was alleged that the Captain had been kicked and cut about in a most fearful manner. A Dispatch reporter who went to the home of the Captain on Mount Washing ton last night, was astonished to find the head of the Law and Order League in the best of health. "That story is a lie from the whole cloth," he said. "I was not outside my gate on Sunday, which is evidence enough that I certainly could not be on Penn avenue." Captain Wishart was also asked whether there was any truth in the statement that Major Ncgley and W. A. Herron had left the league. "If that is true I do not know of it," said he, "and I will not believe it until I see it stated over their own signatures." CAN INFORM ON SUNDAY. Alderman Brinker' Novel Point Regarding L. & O. Prosecutions. Captain Wishart made informations be fore Alderman Brinker yesterday against John Martin, of Smithficld street; Thomas Quinn, of Fifthavenue, and A. J. Kacrcher, of Federal strtet, Allegheny, for selling on last Sunday. All of them gave bail for hearings this morning between, 9 and 10 o'clock. Martin was also sued before Alderman Burns yesterday for selling on the same day and paid his fine Alderman Brinker said yesterday that efforts to evade the Law and Order League by having an action brought and a fine paid before another alderman would prove futile, as an information could be made on Suuday as well as on any other day, and the process need not be served until the next day. He said if the informa tions he has against these defendants were looked into, they would show the date to be previous to any made at other offices. FOE EFFICIENT SEETICES. Allegheny OIHceri Given Permanent Posl tions la Johnstown. This morning Officers Kroescn and Crane, of Allegheny, will leave for Johnstown to reside permanently. They have been offered permanent positions with the Johnstown nnd Stony Creek Railroad Company. The offer was made through Chief ot Police Kirschleron account of the good service clone by the Allegheny officers while in the a uiaca city.

Tito Slnte Demands Tax Statistic of the City Without .Providing Machinery What the Official! Hay. The County Commissioners yesterday sent to the city authorities a set of blanks issued by the State, according to an act of last May, which requires them to furnish to the State a complete tabular statement of all taxes collected in the county, including State, county, borough, township or ward tax, and poor tax, road tax, personal prop erty and occupation and corporation tax, together with what is received from licenses of various kinds and the tax on the real estate of chartered corporations, includ ing railroads and the tax on limited part nerships, Controller Morrow thinks it will be almost impossible to furnish the required statement, as the act requires the tax receipts for the year ending .Tune 1, while the city fiscal year ends FeDruaryl. As the law was made to secure an accurate estimate of the taxes received throughout the State, for the purpose of forming a basis for equitable revenue laws, it provides for payment of the necessary expenses; but Secretary Stew art sends a circular with the blanks stating that, as the Legislature made no appropri ation for the expenses, the compilation must be "a labor of love." I .Mr. Morrow estimated that two clerks would be required for a month or six weeks to do the amount of work expected; but, as there is no appropriation for payment of extra clerks, he docs not see how- he can fur nish the figures. Section 3 provides thatany official refusing to supply the require in formation that may be in his possession, whentlemanded, shall be guilty of a misde meanor, and subject to a fine cf 200. The blanks above referred t were present ed to the Board of Assessors by a clerk from the County Commissioners' o&ce, and Upon examination it was decided, as the records of that office do not show collections, that the board named had nothing to do with the matter. The Controller Dejng the chief financial officer of tho cityj and the fiscal records being kept in his once, Mr. Case, Chief Assessor, after examination, on behalf of the board, referred the blanks to Mr. Morrow. This action was officially reported by letter to the County Commissioners, and the Board of Assessors expressed aj willing ness to aid in the preparation of the statistics wanted, so far as possible, with reasonable clerical help. I THE TYPHOID SCARE. Tho Sonthside Comparatively Free From the Fever There Is No Epidemic Yet, Although It May Come at Any Time. It has been reported that the Southside had once more a typhoid fever epidemic. An investigation last night,however,proved that so far the disease is scarce on that side of the river. Br. J. M. Duff, although naturally averse to having his name in print, was at last led to remark: "I do not wish to question the statement of any of my.professional friends; bnt if there is an epidemic of typhoid on this side of the river, I have failed to dis cover it as yet Neither has any other physician expressed himself to me to that effect" Dr. E. A. Mundorff said: "There is no epidemic of typhoid on the Southside, and there is no more fear that it will occur than there is in any other year. Whenever we have a rainless summer the Southside is liable to have an epidemic of fever, and that state of things will continue until our water supply is changed. Whenever the river is low, organic matter containing the germs of disease is always apt to contam inate our water supply) and disease may come at any time." HITHER AflD THITHER.

How Illegal Liquor Cases Are Prosecuted bj Licensed Agents. JUSTICE'S 25-IN-THE-SLOT MACHINE. There was some startling testimony sworn to in the prosecution of the Bauder detect ives yesterday as to certain inventions whereby defendants might drop $25 in the slot of Justice's machine and get injustice out of it At 4:30 p. 21. the case of the Commonwealth against the Bauder and Doyle Detective Agency came before Al derman J. B. Hyndman at the East Liberty Police Station, on Frankstown avenue. The defendants against whom warrants had been issued severally and collectively were-J. B. Bowder, James Doyle, L. J. Bender, George Kelly, F. D. Stoner, H. Brockett, John Doherty, Dominie Galla gher and William Nagel. The charge was one of conspiracy to obtain money illegally. Attorney John Matron appeared for the Commonwealth; Maj. Montooth for Galla gher; Attorney J. M. Bourke and L. P. Stone, respectively, for Doyle and Doherty. The remainder of the defendants represented themselves. John J. Arnodt, of 155 Frankstown avenue, deposed that defendants, Galla gher and Doyle, came to his house about the middle of last July, and Doyle read a warrant against him for selling liquor with out license. Doyle then asked him if he could get bail for 13,000, and he said he could, and, making an excuse about getting his shoes, slipped OUT BT THE BACK BOOB, and got off to Ohio, whence he only returned a few days since. The warrant was signed by 'Squire Maneese. The day of the occur rence was Monday. Doyle told him the hearing was to be on Thursday. In his ab sence, Victor Miller, a friend, kindly took his case in hand and went to Maneese's of fice, Mrs. Arnodt gave 'Miller (39 to settle. He felt he could not get bail for $3,000, so he conclnded to skip. They kept on sitting in his house for two 'hours, and alter that Doyle went all over the premises. Mrs. Arnodt corroborated her husband's evidence, adding that Gallagher told her she was prosecuted by the Commonwealth. She did not know who or what the Common wealth was. Victor Miller, the next witness, testified that Mrs. Arnodt gave him $9 "to go to 'Squire Maneese's office and settle the case, if possible. He saw defendant Bauder at the 'Squire's, and, knowing Bauder was mixed up with the C3se, offered to settle it with him. Bauder told him everything could be settled for (25 and 59 costs. They then went to the back office and he paid Bander (534. Just then the 'Squire came in and Bauder gave the 'Squire J9. Bauder never told him what the fine was for, and at first he wanted to make it (50, but reduced it to (25, as "the people were poor." He never saw any information against the Ar nodts', hut merely helped them out of kind ness. He saw Gallagher at Maneese's office. There was no hearing of the case whatever. P, Dunn saw Doyle and Gallagher go into Arnodt's house on the day mentioned. COKEOrJOEATITE AND CUMtTIiAXIYE. Mrs. J. Davis, of Forbes street, was next sworn. She said she had been sued for selling liquor without license. Defendant Doyle brought her the warrant, which was signed by Alderman D. B. Callen, of 309 Beaver avenue, 'Allegheny. She went to the 'Squire's office a day or two after, with Doyle, and again shortly afterward. The second time she went she saw there the 'Squire, defendants Doyle and Bauder and a lady named Coyle. Before she had a hearing, Bauder called her aside and told her he could settle the case. They then went into the room at the back, and Bauder said she could get off for (25. The 'Squire then came in and told her to "shove some money under the settee," adding that he "often found money enough there to pay for his beer." She dropped a dollar unde,r the settee, and thev went into the front office. Bauder and Doyle then swore to the 'Squire that they had four witnesses against her, but could not produce them jut then. Bauder also swore that she was summoned on information received by him for selling liquor illegally. He told her he could not find it in his heart to send a lady to jail; so he would let her off for (25. She beard ot no costs, except what the 'Squire told her to "drop under the settee." Asked with regard to what bail she had tendered for her appearance, it turned! out that it was "straw," although nominally set down as (3,000. NO SLOT IN THIS CASE. ( . Mrs. Kate Coyle, of 518 Second avenue, identified Doyle and Bauder, and had been sued bv him to appear at Alderman Cass idy's office on Third avenue, and went there with Doyle. Doyle took her from there to Lawyer G. E. Moore's, on Fifth avenue, and from there to Alderman Callen 's. At Callen s she saw, besides the 'Squire, Bauder and others. The 'Squire told her there were five witnesses against her; that she was arraigned under the Act of '55, and that it was impossible 'for her to get out of it. He then told her to plead guilty, and she'did so. They then informed her that the fine inflicted was (50 and (8.30 costs. She paid Calleu (13.30 at the time, and sub sequently, on her second visit to his office, paid him the remaining (35. She was not told to drop any money in the "slot" The 'Squire gave her a receipt in full, which the produced in court The next witness, Peter Butterhoff, de posed that he was sued 'by defendant Ben der for selling liquor illegally. The war rant was signed by 'Squire Cassidy, but he was never brought to Cassidy'a office. He was taken to 'Squire Doughty's on Penn avenue to get bail, and while there he set tled the case with the 'Squire and Bauder. The 'Squire told Mm to hand over (75, and he handed over that sum. Didn't know who got the money subsequently; but was quite certain that he saw none of it No witnesses were even alluded to at 'Squire Doughty's. Witness then produced a document written by 'Squire Doughty, and running as follows: , A QUEEH DOCUMENT. L. J. Bender, hereby promise and agree to make no further charges against Peter Butterhoff for illegal selling of drink, or for any other offense, during the period of my natural lire. Lauba Bender (Sic). Drawn up and indorsed in my presence, and in my office. W. D. Douanrr. Mrs. Barbara Butterhoff, wife Of the pre ceding witness, corroborated her husband's evidence; adding that 'Squire Doughty brought the document just quoted to their house, in person. He told them that the S75was for defendant. Bender, who was 'witness against them, and for "his com pany. Lbwry J. Bender, defendant,- was then. sworn, and deposed to having worked in Bander's Agency as a detective. He got a commission from Bauder about May 15. The agency had a room at No. 13 Excelsior building. He saw there, besides Bauder, Doyle. Doherty. McCall, Brockett. Stoner and Nagel, all of whom worked in the game employ. He was paid so much for every case he succeeded in "getting through" safely. When an individual waa "ketched" the cpoils were divided among the members of the agency who had acted as witnesses and prosecutors. He met Bauder at Lawyer Haig's office. Mr. Hajg was then lawyer for the agency, bat few been since supplanted by Attorney Moore. It was witness who swore information against P. Butterhoff. He swore the in formation before 'Squire Cassidy, and knew no more about the affair till the next day, when 'Squire Doughty sent for him and made him a present of some money, without stating what it was for. Doughty said to Bauder, who was there: "I want to make something out of this. Don't settle for a cent less than (50." ABUSE AND NUDGING. This all occurred in the back office, while. Butterhoff was waiting in the front room. They then went into the front room, and the 'Squire pretended to abuse witness very fiercely for suing Butterhoff, nudging him "all the time with his elbow. Everything happened after that as Butterhoff had de posed. After that witness and Doughty went to 'Squire Cassfdy's, where thov met Consta ble King, who said he wanted a hearing of the case, as he wished to make some money on it Doughty had a talk with King, and gave him (5," saying he had only got (15 al together. They then adjourned to a saloon, where Dougbtvjslipped (35 into an envelope and handed if to witness without King see ing. Witness then went to the agency of fice and handed Bauder (25, keeping (10 for himself. Bauder gave Doherty some money out of the spoils. Witness never knew that 'Squire Doughty had netted so big a sum as (75. It he did he'd have "kicked" and got more for himself. This was the only case witness was ever employed in by Bander; but he "knew of other cases'' carried on by the agency. Among these was that of Mrs; Byrnes, of Penn avenue, who went straight to her lawyer, Mr. John son, and got out of the agency's clutches. Witness mmseu succeeaea in SPOILING BATJDEE'S PLANS a short time ago in the case of Maude Bay mond, of 21 Juliusstreet This was a reput ed disorderly house, and Bauder and Stoner started out to levy blackmail there. A friend of Miss Raymond's got witness to go to Julius street before Bauder and warn her to pay no money to Bauder. He did accordingly; but when he saw Bauder and Stoner coming he got out by the back door. The case was afterward discharged by 'Squire Maneese. and witness thinks Bau der got no money. Cross-examined by defendant. Bander, witness admitted that he met Officer Gum bert on the way to Baymond. He migkt have offered Gnmbert (50 to get the case stopped, but didn't remember doing so. Witness left the agency several days before he was arrested. He tore up his commis sion. At this stage Major Montooth applied for the release of defendant, Dominic Galla gher! on the ground that no evidence had been brought forward against him. Gallagher was then called and sworn. He was an old Pittsburg citizen, and had been Alderman in the Eleventh ward from 1875 to 1880. He was at present constable to Alderman Maneese. De fendant Doyle one day asked him to ac company him to serve a warrant on a man named Arnodt He showed witness the warrant, which was quite legal and signed by Alderman Maneese. They went to Ar nodt's and SEKVED THE WARRANT,-' but Arnodt succeeded in eluding Doyle. He was never a member of the agency, and never bad any money transactions with any of defendants. After some consideration 'Squire Hyndman decided that there was no evidence implicating Gallagher, and he was let go free accordingly. Attorney Stone then applied for defendant Doherty's release, and Doherty was sworn. He admitted being one of Bander's agents. for which he was paid (9 a week and his ex- fienses. He always considered the agency a egal one, as a commission signed by Clerk of Courts -McGunnigle hangs up in the office in the Excelsior building. Doyle promised to "learn witness the business," and they set him to work ferreting out speak-easies, giving him (5 to pay for drinks. He knew very little about the money affairs of the agency. He had seen Bauder pay Lawjer Moore on two occasions; and once Bauder sent him with a sealed letter to Bobert Lid deli, the brewer, who gave him (15. Witness h..f.t this . T3 n.4 In John House's case 'Bander sent him with a letter to Mr. Liddell, who then gave him (9. This sum Bauder sent to Alderman Maneese as costs in the House case, but MANEESE DEFUSED TOTAKE IT, saying he guessed he'd wait awhile; it was a bad thing to be in a hurry." Bauder then put away the cash. When witness joined the agency he knew of several speak easies, and ne reported them to Bauder. Bauder supplied all his agents with note books.' Witness may have reported a dozen cases in all. A week or two ago he was to have been a witness against Mr. Cole, of South Fortieth street, before Alderman Lohrznan, bnt he went as musician on the newsboys' picnic instead. The case fell through in consequence of the absence of witness. Witness never saw Bander after that till he met him in jail. Witness had received (20 from the agency in all. Lawyer G. Moore was con stantly at the office. Witness was sent to arrest Maude Baymond on Julius street. He took her to Maneese's, where defendant Brockett went her bail. Bobert Liddell had been surety for Bauder when he was getting his agency licensed. Witness said the methods of the agency had been to enter speak-easies, and, on Sunday, regular saloons, and to ask for drinks. If they got drink they reported the matter to Bander. Here the witness' examination concluded and Mr. Stone again asked for his dis charge. Mr. Bourke appealed also for the discharge of defendant Dovle, arguing that he had not been connected with any con spiracy. The 'Squire, however, could not be convinced on this point and held each of the defendants in (1,000 bail on every charge, making a total of (6,000 to each man. BLOOD IN A SLAUGHTER HOUSE. Three Butchers Had a Battlo In Which Thev Used Implements. Simon Mathias and A. Mathias, butchers in Soho, were arrested yesterday for aggravated assault'and battery and felon iously pointing firearms. The charges were made, by Simon Kehl, also a butcher, whose slaughter house adjoins that of the other.' A free fight, it is claimed, ensued, in which apart was played by cobble-stones, ice hooks and a revolver. The revolver was pointed by Simon Mathias, the ice-hooks used by A.

Brown Pledges Beaver County for One Hundred Dollar?. THAT CASH MUST AND SHALL BE EAISED The meeting of colored people last night in Lafayette Hall was attended by a consid erable number of Caucasians. It began in a somewhat animated discussion as to the necessity of "Vice Presidents, Mr. Isaac Morton contending that an array of cele brated names would contribute to the success of the next meeting, and' to the Chairman, Isaac Washington, and Secretary M. K. Holland, were added assistants in the per sons of the Vice Presidents here named: J. H. Baldwin, W. H. Brown, Wm. Webster, B. F. Stewart, J. K. Owens and John A. Martin. These were pilastered by the ap pointment of Wm. Ash, Sergeant at Arms. Bev. Clinton made a prayer, and then the meeting was declared open for business, which was begun by the reading of the fol lowing telegram: Columbia, S. C, August 12. Toll. K. Holland, Seventh Avenne Hotel; Just leaving here for Pittsburg. HaveY. with me; will reach Pittsburg by B. 4 O. R. B. Tuesday morning. J. W. Ecnoia. Mr.'B. F. Stewart then rehearsed the cir cumstances of Yeldell's or Flemon's arrest, trial, etc., and asked that his hearers do what was and ought to be expected of them discharge the debt of (1,100 owed to the lawvers. He asked that they appeal to Re publican white men. Democratic white men, Prohibitionist white men, appeal to "the men who steal our dollars; to the men who administer our laws and can give us justice or injustice as they see fit" Ap plause. WANTED A NIGHT LUTE SET. Mr. Morton moved that at 920 o'clock an appeal be made to all to come forward with contributions ranging from (1,000 down. As it lacked 45 minutes to that time one man objected to cut-and-dry speeches and asked that all wno wanted to contribute be allowed to do so instanter. This in shape of a motion prevailed, and Mr. Chilton was placed at the door to receive contributions irom any one who wanted to leave before the oratory should cease. Ber. Clinton next spoke of Lafayette Hall, the cradle of the Republican party, spoke of the Flemon case and of the posi tion ot tne colored man in tne country, ana reiterated the request of Mr. Stewart to pony up. Tbe address was received with cheers. Bev. W. H. Brown, of Beaver Falls, didn't intend to make a speech, but he was just as much interested as any other man and Beaver county is interested also. The result of the trial had convinced Bev. Brown that it was not the better class of South Carolina people that persecuted the black people, but the white trash, who formed the patrol that in the days of slavery hunted slaves. Bev. Brown was almost certain that he might pledge New BrightoD, Beaver, Beaver Falls and Beaver county for (100 to tbe fund to pay the lawyers. J. H. Baldwin, Esq., hadn't, like Bev. Drown, read the result of the Flemon trial in the Sunday papers, but postponed read ing of it until Monday morning. Mr. Bald win seemed to thing that prayer naa aone more than boodle. Mr. Isaac Morton made a short speech and then the meeting sang "Hold the Fort" as a purse-string relaxer. ' MILKSHAKE MAETIN, the Moody-and-Sankey end of the machine, then proceeded to announce that it would' cost lust (1.100 to hold th fort Mr. Martin! worked in a little politics as he went alot'g, asking the audience not to forget Jack Nolan ana his $3U at next Jfeoruary s elec tion. While the collection was being taken a committee was appointed to meet Flemon at the depot, put him into a carriage and treat fim to a reception. Isaac Morton, announced that he didn't want to make aVpeecb, but said he would stand up for Judge Ewlng. even though no one else did. i The collection was announced to amount to (197 27, which drew out the declaration on the part of many that (200 even must be gotten of it took all night to get it Milk-, shake sent a dozen or two people around with hats, and they finally overlapped th sum asked for. i FLEMON "WILL BE A LION.

Campbell, the famous Principal of the English Boyal Normal College and Academy of Music for the Blind, arrived in the city yesterday and stopped at the Hotel Boyer. On Thursday he will meet the promoters of the Pittsburg institution for tha blind, and give them the benefit of his ripe experience. The Doctor is a great believer in physical education for those who can't see, and be is a wonderful example himself of what the blind can do if properly handled. He retired early last evening, not feeling well, but his son, Guy M. Campbell, talked for his father. When asked if the doctor would consent to act as principal for the Pittsburg school, he replied that was some thing later on, and was not the object of their present visit When they return to England they will take a party ot blind students on tandem bicycles to the Paris Exposition. Arrange ments have been made for the Paris wheel men to meet them 60 miles outside of the city and act as an escort "My father and I," he continued, "have been all over England and Norway on the bicycle. We have a machine that will carry eight people, something I have not seen in this country, and we often take out parties of blind students on trips over the fine 'English roads. Of, course on each machine we place a sighted man to act as guide, but the blind must understand the business, and know when to put on the brakes, etc., from a given signal. Blindi people can skate and swim alone,; because they can tell from the sounds when they are near the inclosure, bnt oa a country road the sounds are so shifting and changing that they couldn't navigate without a guide. Not long since we, made the distance from London to Derby, about 110 miles, in two days. But the roads are so poor in America that we couldn't do much with the bicycles here. By the bicycle I don't mean the average two-wheeled American machine. Our ma chines have from four to eight wheels." A DISTRESSING CASE. Death of a Girl Who Worked When Hardlr Able to Stand Up. Deputy Coroner Donley and Coroner's Clerk Grant Miller made an investigation of the death of Helen Isel yesterday after noon, the developments of which justified them in placing the 'girl's father under ar rest, pending the result of the inquest They learned that the young girl had been an imbecile and subject to epileptic fits. About three weeks ago she became ill, bnt was still compelled to do all the work about the house, although scarcely able to hold up her head. Dr. Haworth was called in Saturday.

The girl complained of ill-treatment sev eral times to Julius Glassman, who occu pies the front part of the house. On Friday she told him that her father had kicked her twice in the side and once in the stomach, causing her great pain. Mr. Glassman says the family were the filthiest lotof people he ever saw. Isel is a blacksmith's helper. Mrs. Isel recently lost an eye and it is said that it was knocked out about five weeks ago by her husband who went home one night drnnk. Becoming angered at his wife he picked up a lamp and threw it at her, cut ting her tace and knocking the eye clear ont of the socket She is also said to be of weak mind. Doctors Haworth and Guy McCandless were authorized to hold a post-mortem exam ination of the remains of the dead girl. A I0UNG DBIN&EE. Whisky Supposed to Havo Killed n Child at Walker' Mills.

OTHEEJNDUSTBJAL NEWS OF THE DAT The following telegram on the coke situa tion was received from Scottdale last even ing: .The Morowood. Coka Works resumed this morning. Master Workman Kerfoot went thero on Saturday, hearing that the strikers were about to go to the Pleasant Unity dis trict to intimidate the men working where the scale was reported signed. A large number had congregated when Kerfoot arrived at Morewood, and the Master Workman's first action 'was to get an Interpreter and learn what they wanted. Tbey stated they wanted Suner tendent Ramsey to meet then and lien the scale and post it up and they would go to work. Ramsey was sent for. and in the presence of the large assemblage, signed the scale. After It bad been explained to all. the men agreed to go to work, which they did this morainzind everything is running smoothly there. Alter this an application, signed by about 300 men, was presented to Master Workman Kerfoot, asking to be organized as an assembly of the sub-division nt No. 4, Knights of Labor. The money for the charter fee and lnitiatlon-fee accompanied tbo application, and as they re sumed wore this morning they will be organ ized as an assembly to night. Balney's If oyer Works, where the trouble occurred on Friday, is being guarded by a force of about 30 armed deputies. At a meeting ot Brown and Cochran's men at the Clarissa mines near Vanderbilt, yesterday they decided that as they had beenworklne tinder a misunderstanding they wonld work to day, and they told Master Workman Kerfoot they would not work after to-day unless the scale was signed. Messrs. Watchorn and Costello arrived here again this evening. Sir. Watchom will proceed to tbe Sewickiey branch where be Till endeavor to pacify the Hans who have been causing tbe trouble. From the latest advices received from the K. of L. headquarters here this evening it seems highly probible that Mr. Watchorn will be successful in bis mission as the agreement Is getting to be understood. What follows ccmes from Connellsville: Quietness has been restored at Moyer Dep uties are still guarding the works, a repetition of the outbreak being feared. Tbe scale has not been signed ytt at these works. Tbe pro prietor, W. J. Rainty, though willing, refuses to do so until the Huns become pacified. No tices have been posted at the works of tha Cambria Iron Company, saying that tbe scale will be signed and tbe work resumed in a few days. The AvondsJe Works owed, by Reid Bros., will start to-morrow. Tbe Hungarian strikers' wives, mothers and daughters are now reported to be the only threatening element in the coke region, as per the following" special telegram from Greensburg last evening: No demonstration was attempted by the Hungarians at Hecla to-day. However, tbeir movements this afternoon were regarded sus piciously. Twenty additional armed men were sent to the woks at 5, o'clock this evening by Sheriff Byers. They are now stationed in front of tbe works doingguard dnty.andit is thought no outbreak will occur, at least until work is resumed, and that may not be for several days, as the damage done has not yet been repaired. A fight occurred between the Hungarians at Mammoth this afternoon, and one ot them re ceived probably fatal injuries. They are loungins about their homes to-night and there Is no sign of a disturbance, the only dangerous element, seemingly being tbe women, who are making all kinds of threats and are quarreling among themselves. AGAINST NON-UNION IRON. t. Tha Strike at the Solar Iroa Work I Not Dead and Burled. A strike is threatened among the men at Phillips, Nemick & Co.'s Sligo mill, and should it occur it will have a tendenoy toward a general strike among other iron mills. 3?he cause of tha trouble Is the old Solar Iron Works' strike, which is still being waged, despite the popular belief that the Amalgamated Association had given it up. The firm have been making considerable muck iron for different mills in this city, and the men have protested against working it Their objections have never yet come to an open revolt until the present case came up. On Saturday night the men in the Sligo mill decided not to work any more of the iron which was being run in to them in large quantities. They requested the mill committee to inform the Superintendent that if they were asked to work any more non-union iron after to-day there would be a strike. The Superintendent refused to act in the absence; of Manager Bailey, and asked the men to defer action until to-day, when the Manager would be home. They accordingly did so, and, if a negative an swer is received, the men say that they will quit work this evening. TO QUELL THE RIOTING. Secretory Watchorn Summoned to the Coko Itralon A sain. Bobert Watchorn, Secretary-Treasurer of N. D. A. No. 135,Knights of Labor, Miners and Cokers, went yesterdav from Columbus to the Connellsville coke region. He was summoned to the 'region to influence the rioters in favor of work, i He will also seek a settlement with the operators who have not yet signed the scale. At ths office of the J. W. Moore Coke Company,, in this city, yesterday, it was stated that' their men were still idle, with no prospects of going to work. It was stated that the firm could not grant the advance, and beyond the rioting there was no change in the situation. " At Colonel Bchoonmaker's office it was given out that about four-fifths of their men were at work, and the remainder would be this morning The McClure people said they were running full. The Frick Com pany have all their men at work. Nothing has yet been done about advanc ing the price of coke. A number ot furnace men have been trying to make large con tracts at $1 per ton, but the operators are fighting shy. Jf At ADTANCE PBICES. The Pipe Maker Will Hold a Sleeting; In New York To-Day. . Captain Murdock, Campbell Herron and John Chalfant went to New York last even ing to attend, a .meeting of the Wrought Iron Pipemakers' Association. It ' is ex pected the: price of pipe will be advanced from 15 to 25 per cent For some time thero has been a big de mand for pipe, and all the pipe mills hre filled with orders.

Even the gas men have suffered be cause the pipe manufacturers could not turn 'out enough pipe to supply the market. Tbe makers who went to New York last eveding were very reticent about what would be done, bnt it is understood the ob ject of the meeting is to put up the price. GLASS HOUSES RESUMING.

The Cotton Belt road has announced its intention to doable track the line from Cairo to JoBosoe. They need 25.000 tons of steel ratb, asd the Carnegie firm kaa bee If Plttsbnrn'a Tin Plate Plant Succeed They'll be Rained. A correspondent writing from England to the American Manufacturer says the tin plate fund which started in this city for the purpose of equipping an American tin plate plant at the new Exposition building is regarded with apprehension among tin plate manufacturers of England. They are alarmed at what they call the bold practical manner of the experiment The English and Welsh manufacturers have had a monopoly, and it has been steadily advanc ing. In 1873 the number oT boxes exported from Great Britain was 2,153,477-boxes; in 1879 the number was 3,534,169 boxes, and last year it had risen to 6,953,128 boxes. Of these amounts America took nearly the whole. Iron and steel masters are also appre hensive of the new movement The extent to which they are interested may be gathered from the fact that the last named quantity of tin plate represents somewhere about 300,000 tons of iron and steel. If the ex periment is a success, and if followed by the tariff on the European product being increased to shut the latter out of this man ket, it means ruin for the foreign manr facturers.
