Constables Bewildered Be
tween Dnty and Policy,
BUT WILL BEPOET AK YHO W
The Kumber of Speak-Easies in the
Eeturns Will be Small.
THEY DECLIKE TO ACT AS SNES,
And Add That There is Keither Money Kor
Honor in the Position.
HOW SPEAK-EASI 0 WXEES AEE CAUGHT
After the 36 constables of Pittsburg had
repeated their "Now I lay me" last night,
their next prayer was: "Prom the judges
aud District Attorney to-morrow, good
lard, deliver us." To-d3y being the first
of Quarter Sessions, they are expected to
make the quarterly returns required by law
on the number of persons in their wards or
townships who sell liquor without license.
Special Agent MiCall has been after the
constables with a hot Mick, and some
strange revelations are expected. The com
mon belief, sustained by the statements of
police and others who ought to know, is
that there are over 500 speak-easies in active
operation in the city. This will give an
average of nearly 14 violators of the license
laws to each constable, which he must in
clude in his return.
An Alderman, who seemed to be thor
oughly posted in hat to expect, said last
night that no such average would be made,
although it could be increased if so great a
numberof speak-easies were not "protected."
He added:
"How can a constable be expected to in
vestigate such matters in a manner to secure
conviction at the munificent recompense of
7 20 per annum. They get 1 80 lor each
return, and no more, whether they have
eight or 80 places where liquor is ille
gally sold to report. The constable
cannot report such places unless he actually
knows that they come within the meaning
of the license law, and it would take a good
many times 1 SO to investigate the matter
satisfactorily to the constable and the court,
i. e., to buy a drink and swear to it, pro
Tiding witnesses.
A QUESTION OF POLITICS.
"Take into consideration the iact that the
man who interferes with his neighbors and
residents of his own ward, where he has
been elected and before whom he may come
again for public indorsement, has but little
chance of getting it, and the apathy of the
constable may be expected, if not ex
plained." If the fact that this is Labor Day does not
interfere a large and very much interested
audience is expected at the opening of the
courts to-day to hear the returns made to
the Judges, and it was pleasantly suggested
by a coustable last night that by closing the
courtroom doors and arresting the whole
audience a larger haul of speak-easy pro
prietors would be made in one hour than by
raiding their places for a month. Every
on ner of these places of illegal refreshment
will be present who can be, to ascertain
whether his or her name is on the list, and
the questions of the District Attorney! based
on information he has already received, are
expected to be more searching than pleas
ant. A number of constables were seen last
night and the majority refused to give any
indication of hat their report would be or
how many they would return. The con
stable of the First ward has not yet returned
from camp, so no report irom there can be
looked lor. The Second ward will show up
a few places, but not by any means the
number which do business without the
formality of taking out a license. The
Third ward constable could not be found,
although several places where men went in
looking thirsty and came out looking tired
were visible.
Constable John D. Carney, of the Sixth
ward, said he would report some places in
his return. "When questioned how many he
refused to state, but said he would report
any person violating the low knowingly if
it we're bis own brother. He admitted that
the number to be reported was small, but as
the.Sixth is a well-known temperance ward,
this is not surprising.
UOT AFEAID OF M'CALL.
The Fourth ward constable states that
there are no speak-easies in his ward. Pat
rick Connelly, of the N inth ward, has no
returns to make either. He said:
We hear a good deal of newspaper talk about
R. S. P. McCa.ll: and it all he amrms is true, whv
doesn't he inform the ward constable where
and when liquor was sold? These idle threats
of prosecution we do not pay any attention to.
It is quite posMblc that a number of persons
leep speak-easies in my district. In
deed 1 believe they do, but whenever
I co into any of these houses you mav be cer
tain no beer is being sold. A man may have
his house packed -nith beer; there is no law to
prevent him. We could not arrest him for hav
ing it in his house, except he is caught selling
it. It need hardly he said that every person
who keeps a speak-easy knows the ward con
stable, and are on the watch for his movements.
This makes it extremely difficult for us to gain
anv accurate information about them.
Do people suppose a ward constable can
thoroughly investigate the ward and give a mi
nute and exhaustive return of these places
and neglect what is much more profitable?
Had the fatate Legislature passed the bill to
pay ward constables a fair remuneration every
month they would feel like working.
HE IS OUT FOR THE STUrF.
I take no notice of McCall's threat, andl will
pursue in the future the same course as in the
past, attending to the profitable portion of busi
ness and giving the other as much time as I
can. I am perfectly aware wc take an oath to
report all the speak-easies, but e do not spend
our time in hunting them up. If anybody
blows or a speak-easy let him come and make
information and we Mill soon arrest them.
Constable Packer, of the Fifteenth ward,
said:
I have not made out my return yet, hut so
far as I can see there are five case to report.
The most of the speak-easy business is done on
Sunday -r:d I don't work on that dav. A con
stable has as much right to the Sabbath rest as
anybody est I am not a Law and Order de
tective and I do not propose to stooo to anv
measures that will require me to hunt around
back alleys an Sunday. As to Agent McCalL
all that 1 have to say about him is that we take
no notice of him.
Miles England, the Seventeenth ward
constable, said he will report two.
A POPULATED EIVEE,
Bow the Bora Disported Themselves in the
Dlononsafaela Vesierilajr.
yesterday afternoon, while the mercury
was panting in its efforts to climb over the
90 mark, the scene between the Panhandle
and Smithfield street bridges was particu
larly lively. The river is lower than it has
been for years and every little island of
river mud and gravel was converted into a
wardrobe resembling a second-hand cloth
ing store, while knee deep in the water were
hundreds of boys clothed in enthusiasm and
stone bruises.
It was a sight very rarely witnessed in the
Honongahela river. Beneath the iron
trestle workabaseball game was in progress,
about 2 P. sl, breaking the decalogue, tfo
Jaw of 1794 and the shoes of the players, the
latter having been remonstrated trith for
the last offense, if not Jbr the others ere
this through the medium of a shingle.
Tbey were all youngjbovs. and enjoyed
themselves thoroughly, as did a good many
spectators from the bridge, '
SO GERMAN, YOU KK0W.
A Ilnmbnre Citizen Writes for the Nnmcs
of Amritcnn Gcnlrv Member of
tho Aristocracy Preferred.
It was with no little trepidation that
Postmaster Larkin opened, yesterday, a
bulky package, postmarked Hamburg, and
addressed "To Mr. The Postmaster at
Pittsburg," anticipating some information
as to the succession in his office, of which
he has had a great deal from equally re
liable sources, or some other communications
of dire moment Mr. Larkin carefully
undid the wrapper with a view to the avoid
ance of dynamite experiments, aud was as
tonished as much at the liberality of the
correspondent as at the oddity of his
request.
The correspondent avoids all superfluous
fieumanship by printing at the top of the
etter "Date o'f poststamp," referring the
reader to the envelope lor information when
the circular was sent. The circular then
asksalistoi"200ioS00"of both parties,, of
the gentry and those known to be well-to-do."
It cuts a pretty wide swathe into the
population when enumerating the classes
wished to be reached, starting with Govern
ment officials, then the aristocracy and end
ing with lessees. Three sheets, to contain
100 names each, are enclosed, which are
ruled and scheduled for the classes, occupa
tion, name, residence and postoffice in fair
commercial printing style. The remuner
ation promised for forwarding the uames is
1 shilling and 6 pence per 100, a rather low
valuation for the aristocracy, Government
officials and gentry of Pittsburg.
An index hand points to a postscript
which suggests that a printed list of voters
and their addresses would be acceptable,
and shows a covert design upon the ballot
box of the country to which the suggestions
of getting people of both parties is but a
flimsy cloak, and, in the light of Sir Lionel
Sackville West's advice to a voter, won't
wash. The circular concludes: "Intheex
pectation of jour acquiescence to this pro
posal, and tendering you my readiness to
reciprocity, I remain your obedient servant,
X. Laudau."
Postmaster Larkin was puzzled to know
what the names were wanted for, as no hint
to the object is found in the circular. He
thoueht it might be an effort to introduce a
new lottery scheme to the attention of the
Pittsburg "nobility, aristocracy. Government
officials, etc. As one of the latter class, he
did not think he would avail himself of the
opportunity to earn 4 shillings and 6 pence,
or about SI 10, by getting up a local hign
toned directory or blue book, and handed
the missive over to a reporter as the best
means of disseminating information, whether
at homo or abroad.
The difficulty now to be me was not what
to send, but, as in any first-class newspaper
office, what to leave out. The question of
forwarding a copyof the city directory to 31.
Landau presented itself, as with a liberality
much wider than that of the election laws,
lie specifies no sex in the names to be sent.
Then the voters' lists of the various wards
were thought of, but dismissed on the
grounds ol the final clause in the circular
which assures the sender of readiness to re
ciprocity, and who would want a voters' list
of the First and Fifth wards of Hamburg?
As a compromise, and to do the least harm
the greatest number Mr. Landau was mailed
a copy of the delinquent tax list.
A GOOD DAI'S WORK.
JodEO McKenna Disposed of 32 Cases in
tlio Twelfth Wnrd.
At the Twelfth ward station house 32
cases were disposed of. Three raids were
responsible for the large number. Lieuten
ant Teeters had complete supervision of the
raids. The house of Miss Jeunie Houston,
on Liberty street, near Eleventh, wasraided
Saturday night as a disorderly one. Eight
persons were captured, all of whom paid S5
and costs each and Miss Houston paid 525.
The house of Mrs. Mary McMahon was
raided early yesterday morning as disor
derly likewise. It is situated on Penn ave
nue, between Twenty-eighth and Twenty
ninth streets, and five men and two women
were arrested. It is said the house was run
on the "speak-easy" principle
Mrs. McMahon is a very old lady ana
quite poor. She pleaded with Magistrate Mc
Kenna, and was let off without the payment
of a fine, although those who were in the
house had to put up 55 and costs each.
Kirk Fields' house, on Mulberry alley
near Twenty-eighth street, was raided as a
gambling house. Eight persons w ere.caught
playing "craps," and had to pay 5 apiece.
The proprietor was fined ?25.
The other cases were of the disorderly
nature, several of whom were also fined.
At the Seventeenth ward police station
Magistrate Bnuh disposed of five cases
none ot which were important
TWO LITTLE WAIFS.
The? Travel All the Waj From Muscatine.
Iowa, to This City.
Officer Jacob Snyder, of Allegheny, picked
uo two waifs at the Pittsburg and Western
Railroad depot yesterday, who had traveled
alone from Buffalo, a small station, near
Muscatine, la.
Tue children are James and May Palmer,
aged 10 and 6 years respectively. They
came into the depot at 10 o'clock. They
told the officer that they had been sent here
from Buffalo to find their mother. The lat
ter had left them with a Miss Bacon about
six weeks ago, and had come here to find her
husband, who had deserted them about six
months ago. Not hearing from theirmother.
Miss Bacon got tired of caring for the
children, and sent them to search for their
mother. They had left home Friday night,
and had not had anything to cat all day.
The officer took them into a restaurant, and
bought them their suppers. They will be
disposed of by the Mayor this morning.
WILLIAM THAW EULOGIZED.
His Lifework HI a do the Snbject of nn In
teresting Sermon.
Bev. C. E. Locke's discourse in the Smith
field M. E. Church last night was on
"Thoughts Suggested by the Death of a
Great Benefactor." The idea conveyed was
that the hundreds of beneficiaries who had
felt or now needed the blessings showered
through the late Mr. Thaw's open-hearted
generositv had now no one to look to.
"Mr. Thaw is gone, and to whom are the
suffering and the poor to look?" he said.
"Have you heard of anyone offering to take
William Thaw's place as a benefactor? I
think the Lord has delegated to many the
work heretofore done by one man."
Here Mr. Locke related several incidents
of Mr. Thaw's career, showing bis thought
iulness and kindness, and said the Chris
tian religion is the only law of morals that
could produce a man like William Thaw.
Infidelity has no representative like Will
iam Thaw.

LYON'S LAST EEP0ET.
The District Attorney Drops
Foreign Glassblowers Case.
the
ALL EVIDENCE HAS BEEN SENT IN.
He Asks That the Snit t3 Tamed Over to
Special Agent Layton.
THE MEN AT JE ANNETTE AEE WATCHED
District Attorney "Walter Lyon yesterday
mailed his last report to the Treasury De
partment at Washington about the imported
window glass workers at Jeannette. The
report is an answer to the request of the de
partment, asking him to say, in his opinion,
who he thought brought the glassworkers
on to this country. In his first report Sir,
Lyon stated that the men had beembrought
here under an implied contract, and recom
mended that they be sent back to Europe.
The officers of the department were nofsat-
fied with this and wanted to know who
brought them over.
From the evidence in his possession the
District Attorney could not fully answer
this question, and in his last letter, which
is now in Washington, he so states. He
replies briefly that he could not ascertain
who brought the men to this country, and
had already submitted all the evidence he
could get. What will be done now nobody
can tell. Some persons think the depart
ment will drop the matter on account of in
sufficient evidence to prosecute the violators
of the law. The law, they claim, is also
defective, and there is no way of sending
the men back to their homes.
The District Attorney also recommends
that the case now be turned over to Special
Agent E. D. Layton, of this city. Mr.
Lyon has done everything he could in the
line of dutv in the matter, and by so doing
bad to neglect other official matters. Since
he took hold of the case the special agent,
wno is commonly kduwu us Amujigrau. .in
spector, has been appointed, and it should
be turned over to him. The latter is Mr.
Layton, whose business it is to investigate
alleged violations of the alien contract labor
law. He was called in to consult, by Mr.
Lyon, but in his official capacity the
special agent has done nothing in the
case. His friends state that "Bob" does
not hanker after the case on account of its
being so near home, bnt in the few months
he has been in office he has made a record
for efficiency. If the department turns it
over to him he will likely push it to a
speedy settlement, one way or the other.
The men who were brought over are still
at Jeannette. Those who are prosecuting
the case are keeping watch upon them to
see that none ot them leave the place.
LABOR MEN TO DEBATE.
All Employers Are Invited to Discuss tbo

HIS BIG PROJECT FOR '92.
Col.
Andrews Has n Plan to Build a Higher
Tower Thnn the Eiffel.
Colonel James Andrews, who went to
Europe in the interest of the Tehuantepec
Ship Bailway scheme, returned on Satur
day. He succeeded in placing a number of
bonds, and is well pleased with his work.
While in Europe the Colonel visited Paris
and sized up the great Eiffel tower. He has
a scheme to build a tower for the World's
Fair in 1892 that will eclipse the Parisian
beauty. It has been decided that a tower is
needed for the event, and no better man
than Colonel Andrews could be found to
build it.
An effort was made to see the Colonel
last night about his idea, but he was not at
home.
HE CLOSED A SPEAK-EAST.
The Heart of Captain Dan Tonched by a
Woman With Seven Children.
Captain Dan Silvis yesterday afternoon
walked into a "speak-easy" kept by Mrs.

cept what she could make by selling liquor.
She said she had seven children to support,
her husband being in the workhouse serv
ing a nine months' sentence for illicit sell
ing. The captain put all the men out of the
house, and made the woman lock it up,
with the promise that she would stop sell
ing for good.

A TIMELY WARNING.
An Engineer Points Oat tbo Dancer of
Narrowing llio, Rivers Railroads En
croaching on the Waterways.
"There are great preparations for another
big flood in Pittsburg," said one of the best
known civil engineers of Allegheny county,
who has formerly held an official position,
as he crossed the Smithfield street bridge
yesterday. Being asked what he meant he
proceeded to point out the encroachments
gradually, but surely being made upon the
rivers by the various railroads..
"See," said he, "the LakeEriehas gained
ground for twcTtracks in a few years, and if
it keeps on will soon have a freight yard

in piles and trestles they will soon be filled
in aud made solid embankments.
"Look at the Pittsburg and Western. It

THIS IS QUEER.
A Man Jumps Into tho River, nnd Doesn't
Try to Save Himself.
Yesterday afternoon John Seibert walked
down to the river bank on West Carson
street, near the Point bridge, and jumped
from a coal barge into the water. Several
men witnessed the proceeding, and seeing
that the man made no effort to keep from
drowning, put out in a skiff and rescued
him. Officers Johnston and Shaffer were
attracted to the scene, but Seibert pleaded
with the men in the boat not to deliver him
to the police, so he was rowed up the river a
distance and then landed. Subsequently he
was captured by the officers near his home
in Limerick and sent to the station house.
Seibert is a married man, 25 years old,
and by trade a puddler in J. Painter &
Son's mill. No cause is given for his sus
pected attempt at suicide. The police be
lieve he was intoxicated.

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?
A Dead Bnby Found by William Gaul on the
Allegheny Shore. .
Yesterday morning a boy named William
Gaul found the dead body of a female in
fant lying on the Allegheny river shore at
the foot of Forty-third street. He notified
the police, and the remains were taken to
the Seventeenth Ward station house, hut
afterward were removed to the morgue.
The child is large and fully developed,
but seems to have had no attention since its
birth, and was devoid of clothing. The
body is covered with bruises, and the child
had evidently not been born over a day
before its dead body was found. There is
no clew to its parentage, and the Coroner
will investigate to-day.

PRESENT OFFICERS EE-N0MINATED
The Musicians' Mutual Protective Union
yesterday took another step for the suppres
sion of members who play with non-union,
bands. A severe penalty will be put upon
this practice, and it Is to be made worse if
any member of tfie-union plays withan ex
pelled member. Eighty-seven members
have been dropped for non-payment of dues
and other causes. This, the officers claim,
does not look as if the union was on its last
legs, and was about to disband.
The regular quarterly meeting of the
union was held yesterday afternoon in New
Turner Hall, on Forbes street. President
Buhe occupied the chair. The President
reported what had been done at the meeting
of the National League in Philadelphia,
which he had attended. He, also made a
report of his interview with the general offi
cers of the Knights of Labor in regard to
the organization of the Great Western Band
into the order. The details of this were pub
lished in The Dispatch of Friday last.
General Secretary Hayes and Executive
Wright will be in the city on the 17th to
investigate the trouble.
A SALTY FEE IMPOSED.
The Committee on Revision of By-laws
reported the following:
' That when a member of this union resigns to
play with non-union musicians, should he apply
for reinstatement in the union, he shall pay an
initiation fee of $50. Wheti a-member' plays
I with expelled members and is dropped from the
rolls, should he apply for reinstatement, he
shall pay an initiation fee of 8100.
By the above legislation it is expected
that the practice of members playing with
non-union bands shall be prevented. Here
tofore when a member played with a non
union band he was tried, and if the evidence
was positive he was fined 10. This was
generally paid by the persons who employed
him. After the fine was paid the member
was placed in good standing, and when oc
casion offered some of them repeated the
offense. For playing with expelled mem
bers the fine was $15. A member of one of
the theater orchestras violated this rule and
was fined.
PKOMPT ACTION TAKEN.
The Board of Directors suspended 87
members for non-payment of dues. This
leaves about 340 members "still in the.union.
No official action was taken yesterday
about the Great Western Band-Exposition
trouble. The matter was discussed by the
members, but as it is in the hands of a com
mittee of the Trades Council, the union
concluded not to act upon it. As yet no
answer has been received by the committee
as to what the Exposition Society intends
to do.
At the meeting new officers were nomi
nated to be elected the first Sunday in De
cember. The following named present
officers were commuted:
For President, C. H.JWilliam Buhe; Vice
President, M. J. Corrigan; Secretary, John
McCloskey; Treasurer, Louis P. Yeager.
THE COMMISSION'S CIRCULAR,
They Want Donors to be Assured
the
Money is Distributed.
The Flood Belief Commission has issued
its third bulletin to the "donors of the flood
relief fund." The circular contains nothing
more than what has been published in The
Dispatch from time to time since the last
meeting of the commission at Johnstown.
Reference is made to the death of Judge
Cummin.
The circular states that the commission
desires to assure the donors of the fund
that "the best industry, intelligence and
energy at command have been applied to the
discharge of their great trust"
No allusion is made to the $125,000 which
the commission owes the Pittsburg com
mittee. ' THE GAISG ESCAPED,

CatBolIc Clergymen Advise Parents to, Giro'
Their Children n Religious Education
Tbo Sclieols Open To-Day.
The pastors of the dfierent Catholio
rnurcnes throughout tne city yesterday ae,
livered sbon talks to parents on the neces
sity of sending their children to the paro
chial school!!. None of them attacked,' tho
public schools or referred to them bat
slightly. The parochial schools open to
morrow, and for this reason the clergy spoke
on the subject.
At St. Paul's Cathedral, Bev. Father
Wall. D.D., rector of the church, preached
at the 9 o'clock mass. After reading the
names of additional contributors to the
fund for the decoration and beautificatiouof
the interior of the church, he began his talk
on parochial School!.
While the subject was an

be desired to impress upon the minds ot
parents the importance and absolute neces
sity of sending their children to the Catholic
schools. Hete they would be given, not
only a knowledge of worldly affairs, but the,
principles of their religion would be incul
cated into their young minds. This knowl
edge of Christianity they could' not get,
unless they went to the parochial schools,
where the life of Christ is paramount, and
the Temple of the Holy Ghost is built with
in their breasts.
He said the Church was here to see that
the children got proper instruction in their
religion, and this knowledge must be ob
tained to lead upright and noble lives. If
parents will give, their children a religious
education at home it will,suffice, provided
that the education is of the proper kind.
Parents have raised the point, saying that
they could give the children all the religious
training required, hut they do not do so.
The Church would be satisfied to have the
children receive instruction from their
parents, but past experience shows that the
parents neglect this duty. Catholic chil
dren, he said, whodo not go to the parochial
schools only hear the word of God when
they are sent to mass or Sunday .school. This
is not sufficient, and parents must awaken
to the fact that they must send their chil
dren to have their minds trained in a re
ligious channel.
All the parochial schools will be opened
to-morrow. The principal Catholic schools
in this city are St, Paul's boys' school, on
Cherry alley, the girls' school on Webster
street," St. Mary's Academy, on Chatham
street and the Holy Ghost College, for boys,
on Bluff street. In addition to these, a new
select school for children will be opened by
the Sisters" of Mercy in the new convent
building on Webster street. The free
schools nave been renovated and extensively
repaired during the summer.

finally result in a fever, as typhoid, for in
stance, among others.
THE TEltPEEArUBE LOW.
"August, as a whole, was a little colder
than the average. The temperature for the
month was 70, just two degrees pVr.
day below the nominal. The 'great
est heat attained was 88 on
Saturday; the lowest 52 degrees, on the 16th.
It was do wn to 46 degrees one day in August
of 1887, and this is the lo west ten record
since this station was opened 'in 1870. No
matter, you see. what can be said'of the
weather, it hardly ever beats its own record.
The highest temperature for any August
was 100 degrees, in 1881. The August of
1883 was the only one colder than last
month. .
"August also was an exceptionally dry
month, the rainfall being 1.88 inches, or
1.41 inches below the average. Last
August it rained 7.26 inches. There
have been two Augusts in
which less rain fell. The
phenomenal record of 1881 was .88 inches,
and 1.29 inches came down in 1878. The
total rainfall for the first eight months of
the year is 28.76 inches, or 3.23 inches above
the average, so that we have not tared badly
for water; in fact, we have bad too much,
auu n was uesirucuve to me ana property.
"For the last 17 years the normal fall of
water has been 25.53 inches for the first
eight months. During August it rained
only on five days.
SEPTEMBER TO BE "WABM.
"From present indications, September
promises to be a dry, warm month. The
temperature to-day is 90, higher than at
any time in August. There has been also very
little wind. For the past week the weather
has been exceedingly warm in the Missis
sippi Valley, and cool in the East and along
the lakes. The crops have not been affected
by theory weather, because they were ma
tured before the dry spell came."
The temperature is measured by a little
instrument called the thermograph. It
consists of a large cylinder with a sheet of
paper wrapped around it and the degrees
marked on the paper. The cylinder is
turned by a simple piece of clock" mechan
ism. A band with a sham point is at
tached to a thermometer made out of plat
inum and alcohol, and as it expands and
contracts the band makes a line on the1
paper as the cylinder revolves. One revolu
tion is made in a week and the irregular
line shows the variations in temperature.
The apparatus is placed on the roof oi the
Schmidt & Friday bnilding and neatly en
cased in a wooden house.
