LYON IS DOUBTFUL.
.The U. S. District Attorney Advises
Architect Jlalone Not to Sue.
GRADES AT THE KEW POSTOPFICE.
2io Ordinances Can be Found Committing
the City to the Work.
THE SIGNS OF WAR SLOWLY DISSOLTE
TTuder the date of September 14, United
States District Attorney Lyon has irritten
to M. L. Malone, the architect in charge of
the Government building, giving the re
sults of his investigation into the legal
questions connected with the grade of the
streets about the building. Mr. Lyon says
that he had prepared a bill of equity asking
for an order restraining the Central Pas
senger Railway Company from completing
its track on Fourth avenue, from Smith
field to Grant street The bill is ready tor
filing, and a temporary injunction could
doubtless be obtained, but Mr. Lyon ex
presses grave doubts whether it could be
sustained when the company would ask for
its dissolution, which it probably would do
without delay. Mr. Lyon says that he has
looked through the municipal statutes and
has been unable to find au ordinance
changing the grades on Fourth and Third
avenues and Cherry alley to the, lower level
demanded by the situation of the Federal
building. He is satisfied that such an
ordinance was not enacted. "While the faith
of the city may be pledged to cause the
grades to be lowered before the building is
completed, that has nothing to do with the
Central Passenger Kailway Company. It is
an issue between the city of Pittsburg and
the Federal Government. Mr. Lyon leaves
the question in Mr. Malone's hands, being
willing to file the bill if Mr. Mahone de
sires. WILL XOT SUE.
Superintendent Malone said yesterday:
"I will not ask for the filing of the bill. It
would do us no good to stop work on the
road forashoit time only. "We could not
effect anything by that. It might do the
company considerable harm and cost it a
good of money, but it would be enabledto
complete its road finally, as Mr. Lyon in
dicates. I do not care to worry the company
to no good effect. In the talks I have had
with George I. "Whitney, the President of
the company, he has expressed entire will
ingness to comply with whatever regulations
the city may in the future establish, and
has said that the company will not oppose
the enactment of an ordinance by Councils,
when it comes up. Chief Bigelow has also
satisfied me of his desire to assist iu the
securing of the proper grade when the condi
tion ot the work in his department will per
mit it. I think he will help to get an
ordinance through Councils.
"There can be no doubt that the faith of
the city is pledged to lower the grade of
these streets. I believe that Councils will
pass an ordinance to that effect. The people
ot Pittsburg compose the city.
TIIEIB MORAL OBLIGATION.
"The people of Pittsburg, through their
representatives in Councils, do not appre
ciate the work which the Government is do
ing here, and to carry out their moral obliga
tion to the Government, there would then
arise the question, what action shall the
Government take against the city? I hope
and believe that such an emergency will
not arise."
The workmen of the Central Passenger
Eailway ComDany yesterday morning pro
ceeded to the completion of the tracks along
Fourth avenue beside the Government
building. The stone-grinding apparatus
was drawn from below Smitbfield street to
the vicinity of Grant street, and the work
;of filling in around the ontside of the cable
-conduit proceeded rapidly. By 6 o'clock
almost half of the block had been gone
ore2i ---- .-.., ., .
George L "Whitney, President ofthecSm
pany, said that as there was no ordinance in
effect establishing a lower grade, it had been
decided to complete the road on the present
'grade as rapidly as possible. He added:
"When there is anything done we will have
to conform to any grade that is made."
DO YOU WANT A FIXE PIAKOf
The Everett Club or Co-Operntive System
Offers the following inducements, if you
wish to pay cash: By becoming a member
you will save 75 in the price of the piano,
and get it at once. Ifyoucinnot spare the
cash you can get your piano any time, on
payment of S25 cash and S2 CO per week,
no interest, and still save 575 in the price.
If you cannot pay so fast, by waiting
until your number is drawn you will get
your piano on payments of SI per week, no
interest, and save S75 in the regular price
to our retail trade. Think of this! Our
club is composed of 350 members, each
paying 1 per week. Thus you see the
members are buying lor cash, and one piano
is delivered to the member whose number
is drawn each week, until all are supplied,
or, if one-half of the members lake their
pianos and pay 2 50 per week, we deliver
twice the number, and Ret double the
amount of cash each week, and it leaves
only one-half the number to be drawn on the
51 weekly payments. It is a simple business
problem. We are saving our members the
difference in price by contracting for 350
pianos at one time, and on a cash basis. We
have now enough members to guarantee the
success of this plan, and have decided to
begin delivering the pianos on Saturday,
September 21. Do not wait, but apply for
membership at once. Call and see the
piano, or send for circular.

That Cozy Little Cottneo in the Gallery.
The talk of the two cities, in fact the ex
pression of all who have had the pleasure of
seeing it, is that it is byall means the hand
somest exhibit ever shown west of the
mountains. While there are far more costly
shows on exhibition, they do not seem to
"catch on." They seem to be too rich for
the average person's blood, hence are passed
with that quiet expression, "You can look
but you musn't touch." No so with the
"little cottage in the gallery." There
everything seems so inviting, and too, only
common-place goods, not at all above what
any young couple might aspire to. You
certainly will miss a treat if von do not
visit this unique exhibit of Hopper Bros. &
Co. Mr. Hopper claims that every piece
on exhibition was taken from his ware
rooms, 307 Wood street.

POLITICS BACK OF IT.
Why Allegheny Select Conncll Defeated a
Resolution In Record to Mayor Fenr
non'a Tenure of Office Lively Dlacns
lon. At a special meeting of Allegheny Select
Council last night the Common Council
resolution asking for an opinion from the
City Solicitor as to whether the Mayor's
term expires in 1890 or 1891, was called up.
Mr. Schad moved to indefinitely postpone,
because he believed Councils had nothing
to do with the Mayoralty. Mr. Lare
thought it would do no harm, and the peo
ple should know.
Mr. Wertheimer said he had no doubt
that Mayor Pearson thought he was elected
tor four years, and if anyone wants to run
lor Mayor let him do so and then fight the
present Mayor for the office. An opinion
wouldn't settle it anyhow.
Mr. Kennedy said the opinion would
have no weight. He hoped that there
would be no election next February, one
reason being that within the next year
the city would be changed in class and
the people's idea of who should be Mayor
might be changed. There was a power of
politics back of this resolution. It wouldbe
but an entering wedge and the next thing
would be to have Councils to order a man
damus to be asked for.
The ayes and noes were called and Mr,
Schad's motion to indefinitely postpone was
carried. The vote stood:
Ayes Messrs. Cochran, Einstein, Hannan,
Hartman, Henricks, Kennedy, Lahngh, Mc
Afee, Oler, Kaltblein, Schad, Bpeer, Wert
heimer and President Lindsay 14,
Noes Messrs. LangbutT Lare, Loew.
Muehlbronner, Snaman and Walther 8.
Alter some explanations the ordinance
grauting the contract for erecting an elec
tric light plant to the Westinghouse Elec
tric Company for $141,158 was passed.
A resolution for issuing $25,000 worth of
bonds to improve Monument Hill was
passed.
Mr. Muehlbronner called up the resolu
tion providing for the construction of board
walks in the rural districts, over which the
members fought at the last meeting. Presi
dent Lindsay renewed his ruling that the
resolution was out of order, as it was illegal
and conflicted with an act of Assembly.
Mr. Kennedy moved that the City Sol icitor
be asked to give an opinion on the subject.
Mr. Henricks said he had voted for issuing
bonds to the amount of $25,000 to improve
Monument Hill because he wanted some aid
for his own district. His vote in the future
would depend upon what Councils did in the
boardwalk matter.
Mr. Kennedy's motion to ask for an opin
ion on the resolution was adopted.
A FRIGHTFUL. EXPERIENCE.
A Runaway Electric Car Dashes Down
Obserrntory Hill.
Yesterday morning as 'car No. 3, of the
ObeservatoryjHill Electric Street Bail way,
was near the power house at the head of
Federal street extension, the driver lost
control of it, and it started down the
hill at a terrible rate of speed. The tracks
were muddy and slippery and the brakes
refused to work. The car at one time al
most attained the rate of 50 miles per hour.
The first curve, at the corner of North ave
nue and Federal street, was(made in safety,
but in making a second curve it jumped the
track, crashed through the park fences, and
never stopped until the wheels were bnried
in the soft soil. The conductor on the rear
end of the car neglected to reverse the lever
on his end of the platform, but both he and
the driver pluckily stuck to their posts.
Where the car turned from the tracks it
passed within one foot of a telegraph pole,
and the passengers had a narrow escape
from death at this point.
The car was fairly loaded with passen
gers, and the greatest consternation reigned
among them. They endeavored repeatedly
to break from the car. and some one would
have been killed had tbey succeeded. Ex
Mayor Drum distinguished himseli by
gnarding the door and refusing to let any
one out One yonng man, who stood on the
platform, jumped off and was slightly
bruised and sprained. His name was Bud
Reese. None of the other passengers were
injured, though all were much frightened
by their rough experience.
HORSES ALL WELL KEPT.
Agent O'Brien Denies That There li Crnclty
at Johnstown.
Agent O'Brien, who has returned from
Johnstown, reported to the Humane Society

action. He also said that the State horses
were in excellent condition. W. W.
Decker was appointed agent for the Hu
mane Society at Johnstown.
Agent O'Brien, will to-day investigate

THE SCOTCH MUSIC.
It Was a Drawing Card Down at the
Exposition Last Night.
SOME INTERESTING EPISODES.
The Great Western Band Acquits Itself
Admirably.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION 0F,MANY EXHIBITS
The children of the "Land o Cakes" had
a good time at the Exposition last night
The music was all Scottish, and certainly
the Great Western Band, under the con.
ductorship of Mr. B. "Weiss, did ample jus
tice to the sweet melodies of "Auld Scot
land.'! The space around the bandstand
was thronged with admirers, many of whom
spoke in the time-honored accents ot the
"Lallan tongue or Erse," as truly as ever
did Lothian cotter or Hieland gillie.
One old lady who was evidently jealous of
the prestige of her native land, was heard to
remark, "Dinna ye tell me, mon. They
ha' made Yankees out o' th' auld Scottish
sangs. Naebody can play Scottish airs but
Scotchmen."
In spite of the old lady's remarks, how
ever, everybody seemed more than pleased
with the mnsic. Sentimental youths
looked love at the fair ones who accom
panied them, while the tender strains of
"Annie Laurie" hlled the atr. There neea
be no surprise if a good many Annie
Lauries ''gied their promise true, while
munching Mr. Marvin's fairy-like"onfec-tions,
with the dear old tune ringing in
their ears.
Then there swelled forth "Auld Lang
Syne," and you could have picked out the
Scotchmen from the Philistines by the
looks of deep feeling they stole at one
another, and the ridiculous amount of
handshaking that- went on. The stirring
tones of "My Love She's but a Lassie Yet"
made every foot beat responsive; and verily,
there were a good many merry romps pres
ent who might have stood for Hogg's word
painting of the maid who was
Just a jinkin. bonnie blinkin'
Hilty skilty lassie yet
And so on "from grave to gay," from
"Annie Laurie" to "Bonnie Dundee,"
through the whole repertoire of Scotia's
favorite airs. The big crowd surging
through the gaily-lit halls filled the build
ing with their laughter, criticised the pict
ures in the art gallery wjth all the "sang
froid" of long-established reviewers, drank
the free cocoa, eat the free pickles and pur
chased the bon-bons innumerable.
In one of the picture galleries there was
an amusing scence. A certain prominent
Pittsburg artist was leaning over the rails
admiring that charming sketch entited, "A
Foggy Morning." Thereaderwill recollect
the picture, which represents two figures,
stepping through the mist, upholding an
unromatic umbrella. Suddenly enter unto
the pensive artist a stout lady who is show
ing another lady through the galleries and
evidently wishes to impress upon the awe
struck crowds her knowledge of the pict
ures. She stopped before the "Foggy
Morning" and glancing hastily at it ex
claims in ringing tones:
"Emily This is 'In the Gloaming.'
There's Mollie Darling under the um
brella." You should have seen the horror expressed
on the artist's face as he tnrned ronnd,
rudely startled from his contemplation.
Just tben the band struck up "John Anderson
My Jo," and there was a rush for the baud
stand. The old lady wbo thongbt Scotchmen
alone capable of rendering Scotch airs was tbere
with her husband, a venerable white-haired
gentleman. Her skepticism seemed to have
vanished, for she was humming the sweet song
to herself, as she smiled on her old "Jo" by her
side. Then she put forth one wrinkled hand
and whispered:
"Blessins on your frosty pow
John Anderson my Jol"
And so the night sped on, and Scotia was
duly honored.
GROGAN'S CUT GLASS DISFlAT.
As Rich na Crosns
Is aD old adage, hut in the case ot Grogan's
exhibit it is modernized in a most emphatic
manner. The patterns and forms of this cut
glass are of the Croesus style and their richness
gives force to our quotation. The whole of
the cnt gUss is found iu the large ebony case
on the main aisle floored with sections of
French mirror plates, which reflect the pris
matic hues of the cut glass and heighten the
rich effects so susceptible in this material. In
this disnlay are a variety of shapes and pattens
exclusive to the Grogan stock. An
oval pnncb bowl of large dimensions
stands in the center. Getting away
from the old regular round bowls, this gondola
shape is very impressive. It is the most grace
ful bowl that has yet appeared, being set upon
a standard which raises it above theoidinary
level, and, with the exquisite enps and saucers
surrounding it, for serving punch, will add
grandeur to any table. In the case is a com
plete outfit for table use, viz: water pitchers
and caraffes, with tumblers and goblets, full
sets for wines in the following sizes: cordial,
sherry, claret and champagne .classes. With
sherry is found the decanters, with claret the
jugs, and smaller jugs for cordials. There are
vases in tall and graceful shapes: nothing
shows off. so well a bunch of roses as these.
Tbere are also rose bowls of various sizes, finger
bowls, jar and cover, etc. Don't fail to see
Grogan's cut glass.
PALACE OF WDSIC EXHIBIT.
RIcllor & Hoenr, 77 Fifth Avenue.
The high character and reputation of this
firm is frilly maintained, in the superb exhibit,
at west end of main hall. Nothing but the
best is permitted to leave their warerooms;
therefore, only the choicest instruments are in
closed in the handsome cases, whether carved
or plain. The specialty in pianos is the cele
brated Hardman, which none others equal in
tunc, solidity, perfect action and moderate
prices. The Hardman pianos have forged
right ahead, and from being simply very good
reliable instruments, have become the favor
ites, from their undoubted superiority.
In the display are also notable speci
mens of the pianos manufactured by
Krakancr. and by Kimball. The justly cele
brated Palace, Chicago Cottage and A. B.
Chase Organs; could anyone ask more? If
they are exigent thev may turn to that remark
able invention, the iEolian Urgan with its live
sets of reeds, from which may be evolved the
most beautiful music; it may be played like
any other organ, or by working the pedals any
piece desired will be rendered, by having the
proper "barrels." The JEolian is certainlv
wonderful. After visiting the display, visitors
are invited to visit the wareroom, and take in
in their permanent exposition.

THEOLOQS AT1 HOME.
The Opening Reception at tho Western
Theological Seminary Yesterday.
The scholastic yearof the Western Theo
logical Seminary of the Presbyterian
Church was inaugurated yesterday after
noon at 330 by the reception of the new
students and the allotment among the three
classes of rooms for residence during the
ensuing three years. At the hour named
23 young men, constituting the junior class
for the session of '89-'90, had assembled in
onfi nf flip nlns rooms, while in the vestl-
.bule and on the porch students of last
year s junior ana middle classes were ex
changing greetings and speculating on the
probable addition to their ranks of new
men. "
On assembling in .the chapel Prof. T. H.
Bobinson, assisted by Prof. W. H. Jeffers,
called up each new student to the platform,
where he read aloud a solemn promise, in
view of the importance of improving in
knowledge, prudence and piety and in pre
paring for the ministry," to diligently follow
the course of instructions, obey the rules
and regulations and yield to all the ad
monitions of the professors while a member
of the seminary, alter which he subscribed
his name on the scroll. Following this the
number and location of the rooms were
called out and allotted to each man as his
name appeared on the books, those of the
old students who desired being allowed to
remain in occupation of last year's rooms,
and the business of the day closed. The
number of new students this year exceeds
last year's by nine, and the total is expected
to reach 35 in the course of a few days.
The opening address of the session, which
lasts, with a brief recess at the holidays, for
eight months, will be made at 10:30 this
morning by Prof. fl. T. McClelland, his
subject being "A Good Minister of Jesus
Christ."
