WHICH HAS SUPEEIOR AUTHORITY?

States That Be Means It.
IIS HOXQB'S UfiEUFFLED DEMEAKOR
Mayor HcCallin issues a license for a
museum show; Chief J. O. Brown, of the
Department of Public Safety, revokes it,
ffhe burning question of the hour is, "Who
is Jiayor of Pittsburg?" That was precisely
the condition of affairs yesterday in this city,
"Under the new charter's operations Mayor
HeCallin was popularly supposed to be
thorn of much of the municipal authority
which appertains to .Mayors of other cities,
tut no case has arisen by which it could be
determined how little power Mr. McCallin
wielded as against how much power was
Tested in his subordinates. The events of
yesterday have set the politicians agog, and
may lead to lively developments in the near
future.
The question of whether a license granted
by the Mayor of Pittsburg will protect the
manager of a show, the exhibition of
which is condemned by the Department of
Public Safety, was temporarily settled last
sight, by the shutting up of every place of
the kind in the citv, and the arrest of all
the proprietors. They were Johu Wal
thauer, 536 Smithfield street; Adam Car
lisle and Nicholas McXeal, 27 Sixth street.
Aaron Levitzfcy, whose show was closed at
17 Sixth street on Friday night, is still out
on ?2 000 bail and will have a hearing on
Monday before Judge McKenna. There
were two informations made against each
proprietor by Inspector McAleese, which
read as follows:
M'ALEESE'S informations.
That said detendant on October 19. 1889, and
divers other days and times before did erect,
set np, establish, ett, a certain public perform
ance and exhibition In violation of the laws of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and with
out having obtained any license therefor as re
quired by law, ana did also operate, etc., the
f aid place in sarh a manner as to cause the
congregation of a large numbcrof personsupon
the public highway to create noise and confu
sion. Ana thereat did also give, exhibit, etc., lewd,
lascivious, immoral and acgrading exhibitions
daily; and also did daily, by virtue of false and
untrue handbills, signs, paintings, pictures and
personal solicitation at the doors, solicit, entice
and induce many citizens, including women
and small children, to enter and view the said
Immoral, etc., exhibition so given by said de
fendant atJthe said place aforesaid; and for
which entrance persons so entering, or induced
to enter, were compelled to pay sums of money
therefor, thereby creating in the said place a
public nuisance, contrary to the legislation in
such cases made and provided.
Wherefore deponent prays that a warrant
may issue and that said defendant may be ap
prehended and held to answer the abovo men
tion d charge of erecting and maintaining a
2nbhc nuisance. J 0112c McAleese,
Inspector of Polite.
The second information was to this effect:
That the said defendant did on , and
divers other times m the city of Pittsburg,
show, hold and exhibit a certain exhibition for
gain without first nance obtained a license
therefor according to the actof General Assem
bly, approved May 15, 1852, contrary to the act
ot Assembly in such cases made and provided.
' CHIEF BBOTVX VS. THE MAYOR.
Notice was also served upon ali the fake
museum proprietors in which Chief J. O.
Brown revokes any license which may have
been granted. First, conceding that snch
licenses may exist the notice goes on to say:
This Is to notify yon that the same is
hereby revoked, and made null and void by me
i or, amonc others the following reasons:
First, That the said license, if any there be,
has been improperly issued.
Second, That you have not obtained any State
license for the exhibition of any such snows, as
provided for by an act of assembly of this Com
monwealfh, and that your said exhibition has
consequently been conducted in direct viola
tion of Baid act. and therefore your alleged
city license is null and void and of no effect.
Third, That your exhibition,showormuscum
has been conducted by you in such a defiance
of law as to be a publc nuisance, and therefore
a city license therefor would be by this fact
tendered null and void. Respectf nil r,
J. O. Beowx,
Chief of Department of Public Safety.
In an interview, subsequently. Chief
Brown went over the exact ground advanced
in the informations and notice and stated
that he had had ample legal advice as to his
power under the new charter. He declined
to state whether he conceded any rights to
the city and pinned his faith to the act of
May 15, 1852. Further he declined to com
mit himself.
MATOB Sl'CALLIjr QUITE EAST.
Mayor McCallin was seen last night and
requested to state what were his opinions
upon the attitude assumed by Chief J. O.
Brown in reference to the dime museum
licenses.
The Mayor said: "I shall make no move
in this matter. If the people consider them
selves aggrieved they can take au actiou
Against Mr. Brown."
"But," it was suggested, "Mr. Brown is
your subordinate. It is considered strange
that he should overrule you by revoking
licenses granted bv vou."
"Not at all," replied the Mayor. "Mr.
Brown's action has not hnrt my "dignity in
the least. You see these museums are granted
their licenses on the condition that they
keep within the limits of the license laws.
"When I grant licenses, I cannot ask every
museum proprietor ior a guarantee that no
immorality, or disorderly conduct shall be
permitted in his show. I grant the licenses
conditionally. If he does not obey the law.his
licensebecomes forfeit andChief Brown's turn
comes. It is the same with a man who is given
a license to use dynamite for blasting pur
poses. If he injures property through
carelessness, his license can be taken up by
the police authorities."
"As I said,however,if the people consider
Mr. Brown's action to be arbitrary, or lack
ing in just grounds, then they can prosecute
Mr. Brown and the police authorities. But
I am not going to institute an action in de
fence of anyone who has ill used my li
cense." TO AE1U!GE BANQUET DETAILS:

An Allegheny Blaze.
About 6 o'clock yesterday morning John
Herchenroether's slaughter house in Spring
Garden borough caught fire. An alarm waa
sent in from box 135, Allegheny Fire De
partment, but since the buildings were out
side the city limits, only one fire plug could
tie brought into use. The water supply
being thus limited, the buildings were con
sumed. The loss is said to be 514,000, and
the insurance on the plant is only $7,000.
The origin of the fire is not known.

TO DINE WITH HAfiKISOS.
An Important Disclosure Made to
City
Editor' Astonished Ear.
A man shambled into The Dispatch
local room last night and remarked that he
had an item. Conjured to disclose he hauled
out a very much dog-eared picture of Presi
dent Harrison and stated that tie was going
to dine with "that party" next Monday by
special invitation of H. B, H. Bussell Har
rison. "How will you get there?" inquired the
practical young man at the desk, glancing
suspiciously at the elderly habilments and
sere and yellow leaf hat of the visitor who
had such'happy prospects of stretching his
legs under Presidental mahogany. Per
haps, however, the hopeful man was a Mon
tana constituent of Russell's who had
reached Pittsburg on his way to the "White
House, and could no longer restrain his
bursting importance.
But no. The hypothesis wouldn't wash.
The answer of the visitor as to ways and
means of locomotion was: "I shall borrow
the money from my friends to-morrow."
"Sunday is a dreadful hard day to bor
row," remarked the city editor, contem
platively. Then the boss optimist got offended and
withdrew. Micawber in his paluicst days
of turning up was clearly eclipsed in his
wildest imaginings.
STILL DOING BUSINESS.
The Ramor That the Lawrence Bank Has
Failed Is Unfounded.
The absence of President W. W. Yonng,
of the Lawrence Bank, who is on a fishing
tour on the Kankakee, gave someone the
impression yesterday that there was trouble
in the institution, and about 10 o'clock in
the morning a crowd of several hundred per
sons surrounded it, clamoring for their
money.
They were in a highly excited state, and
a tremendous run was made on the bank,
but it kept its door open and met all de
mands without difficulty. Many of the
larger depositors were satisfied with the as
surance from the officials that the bank was
all right, but the smaller ones did not leave
until they got their money.
Thomas Stewart, a director in the bank,
stated last night that the report must have
been started by some old woman who had
attempted to draw money without the cus
tomary previous notice. He stated that the
bank was in an excellent condition, pay
ing 6 per cent dividends, and had
some of the most prominent business men of
the city as stockholders. A reward of $150
will be given for the apprehension of the
person who started the rnmor. The' bank
itself was not closed at all yesterday, and
remained open until 9 o'clock last night, to
give assurance to its depositors.
KOETflSlDE STREET EAILWAI.
The Allegheny Committee on the Subject
Sleets and Grant Concessions.
The Allegheny Committee on Street Bail
ways met last night and considered several
ordinances relating to business of that kind.
They granted permission to the Pleasant
Valley Company to lay tracks on California
avenue and Sedgwick street without the pre
caution of binding the rails with Belgian
blocks. The ordinance of the Northside
Eailway Company was referred to a sub
committee, consisting of Messrs. McAfee,
Neeb, Bader, James Hunter and Obcr to
consider its requests and report back to the
committee.
The ordinance of the Pittsburg Union
Bailway Company was ordered on file. The
company is about the same as the Union
line and the right of way was asked over
certain streets already given to the cross
town railway.
An ordinance prohibiting persons under
15 years of age from getting on and off mov
ing street cars was referred to the Committee
on Ordinances.
IT WAS A BIG BOULDER.
A Blast Throws a Cock Upon the Ft. Wnvno
Tracks Travel Delayed.
Last evening abont 5 o'clock a blast was
set off on the side of the hill above "Woods'
Bun station, on the Port Wayne Bailroad,
where the work of constructing the Ohio
Connecting Bailroad is in progress.
The blast loosened a rock about the size
of a freight car and rolled it down on to the
Fort "Wayne tracks. The latter were mis-
nlaced and the immense rock had to be
blasted before it could be moved. It took
about au hour to do this, and then the rails
were found to be so badly twisted that two
new ones had to. be put in at that point.
Travel on the road was, of course, stopped
for some little time until this work was
done.
HITHER AND THITHER.
Movements of PIttsbureers nnd Others of
Wide Acquaintance.
Mayor McCallin yesterday received a
letter from Fred Lenghmeyer, of North Mon
roenlle, O., inquiring for some information
concerning his parents, whom bo has not seen
or heard of since just after the close of the
war. Lenghmeyer states that he was born in
or about Pittsburg in 1S39. He was raised, he
says, in ntter ignorance of his parents, and the
only recollection he has of them was a visit
they paid him of abont an hour's duration just
after the close of the war. He is now very
anxious to locate them, and says he has sub
scribed for a Pittsburg morning paper for sev
eral years and has written to its editor, as well
as the postmaster of this city for information,
but they could furnish none. He would come
to look for them himself, but is ignorant of the
city. He offers to pay liberally for any trouble
incurred in finding his parents.

.THE
HOLDERS GOIM OUT.
The Advance of 10 Per Cent Mused,
They Decide to Strike.
CARNEGIE GRANTS THE DEMAND.
Manager Wilt and the Trades Council Have
a little Flj Around.
THE MD8ICAL UNION WAS INDORSED
Abont 700 molders in this city, 75 in Mc
Keesport and 20 .in Leechbure will take an
enforced holiday to-morrow, consequent on
their demand for a 10 per cent increase in
wages not having been conceded. In other
words, a strike has been ordered,
and it went practically , into
effect yesterday, when the men
knocked off work at 12 o'clock, and the indi
cations are that it will continue until the
terms demanded have been granted. But
one firm has signed the card conceding the
increase, namely, that of Carnegie, Phipps
& Co.,.and their molders, who number 32,
will turn in as usual to-morrow.
Definite action in this matter was decided
upon at a full meeting of the molders, which
was held at Imperial Hall last evening.
The meeting was a long and deliberate one
and was three hours in session, Master
"Workman L N. Boss occupying the chair.
Committees from 43 shops reported as to
what they knew of the proposed ac
tion of their employers. Chairman Boss
said that out ot the 39 founders
to whom registered notifications of thede-
Lmand, accompanied by a card requesting an
answer, had been sent, a reply had oeen re
ceived from one, namely, Carnegie, Phipps
& Co., and that was to the effect that the
increase demanded would be granted.
OTHEIt FIBMS SILENT.
No communications, either affirmative or
negative, were received from any other
firms.
The committee of A. Speer & Sons' shop,
Cecil alley, reported that the firm had inti
mated to them their willingness to concede
the 10 per cent increase, but the molders
emploved in the shop, who number
40, while highly appreciating the prompt
action of the firm in so readily
yielding to their demand, decided last
night, ratner reluctantly, that they lelt it
incumbent" on them to hold out since the
demand had not been formally signed. One
feature of the Messrs. Speer action toward
their men, which met with hearty applause,
was the fact of their voluntarily and with
out solicitation, granting an increase of 10
percent to their laborers as well as to their
molders.
A long debate was entered into as to
whether such friendly action should not re
ceive recognition, but for the reasons stated
the men concluded to hold out, It is ex
pected that the firm will formally sign the
scale to-morrow. It'was also reported that
Evans Bros., of Allegheny, would grant the
increase, and the shop committees from six
foundries reported that their firms would
yield the demand if others did.
JSOME DIDN'T GET THE NOTES.
Committees from three or four shops said
that they had been told by their employers
that they had not received any notification
of the demand, but the Chairman showed
that they had by reading the postoffice re
ceipt for the registered circular. About
two-thirds of the firms were reported as favor
able to the increase, but it was understood
that they were waiting as mnch to see what
their neighbors would do as what action the
molders would take. Master "Workman
Boss said that a strong committee had been
appointed to look after the finances, and
that the men were ready to stand out for
the increase. Meetings of the molders will
be held to-morrow and Monday at an early
hour in the K. of L. Hall in Fifth avenue.
It is though? that the trouble
between the employes and their men will
not be of long duration. There is every
Iirobability of the founders following the
ead of Carnegie, Pnipps & Co. and Messrs.
Speer & Sons, 'the more so that business is
so brisk at present in all the shops that em
ployers may see their advantage in having
their men at work again without delay.
The out-of-town firms concerned are the Na
tional Tube Works, of McKeesport, and
the Leechburg Foundry and Machine Com
pany. HERE IS MORE RICHNESS.
ainnnccr Wilt and a Trades Conncil Com
mittee Hnve a Tilt Resolutions Indors
ing the III. M. P. TJ. Passed.
The fight among the musicians came np in
the Trades Council again last night and a
new phase cropped out. When the council
was called to order the delegates from the
M. M. P. IT. presented the following:
Whereas, A number of musicians expelled
and resigned from the recognized musical or
ganization of Pittsburg and vicinity, have with
the assistance of unscrupulous parties, organ
ized a body for the purpose of givlig themselves
the appearance of union men for the purpose
of misleading the public ana imposing npon
reputably organized bodies and professions;
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Trades Council of West
ern Pennsylvania recognizes no other body as
having jurisdiction asunion men in the musical
profession and engagements pertaining thereto
ttian the .Musical Mutual protective union.
and will support them in every effort to resist
all encroachments of any control of any uro-
fesiional business now controlled by the M. M.
P. XT, or any business that may arise requiting
the services of musicians, and in order to avoid
any misnnaerstanmng wnatever Detween em
ployer and musicians, belt further
R'esolved, That a copy of these resolutions,
with the seal of the council attached, be placed
in possession of all the proprietors of all places
of amusement in the tno cities and the officers
of D. A. 3, K. of L., and the same b furnished
to the press.
The resolutions were called out by the
fight over the Grand Opera House orchestra.
Before action was taken Messrs. Calvin,
Wyatt, W. H. McKeever and Benj. Pink
were appointed a committee to call on
Manager Wilt The committee retired and
in a brief time returned. That the
members felt ruffled was evident
from their appearance, and when they
made their report the Trades Council was
ruffled. The committee reported that they
had gone to the Grand Opera House and
found Manager Wilt They explained who
they were, what the Trades Council was and
what the nature of their call wis. Manager
Wilt said the M. M. P. TJ. were liars, and
all the officers of that body were liars. The
committee appeared to him to be drunk.
Anyway, they were not the kind of people
he wanted to deal with, and he would conduct
his business in his own way to suit himself.
The committee denied that they were drunk
or that the M. M. P. TJ. were liars, but Mr.
Wilt said it made no difference.
A nnmber of speeches were"raade over the
report, in which toe Opera House manage
ment was criticized. The report was re
ceived, the committee discharged aand the
resolutions offered by the Musical Union
adopted. No farther action was taken.
The delegates from the Horseshoers' union
reported that William Kees had signed the
scale.
The delegates from Painters' Assembly
1374, K. ofli., complained that the Painters'
and Decorators' Union was working under
wages. The charge was referred to the
Executive Board. Iu connection with this
the following resolution was offered:
Resolved. That it is the sense of the Central
Trades Council that it is inconsistent and det
rimental to organized labor in general for any
union, a body of organized workmen, to work
with non-union men, or to refuse to assist a
sister union in struggle.
The resolution was adopted. One dele
gate, the representative of the Brotherhood
of Machinists, was admitted" tothe Council.
Comrncts Awarded.
The Monongahela Furnace Company, of
McKeesport, has awarded to Biter &

The Caledonian Curling Club met last
evening at the shop of D. S. Thompson, the

Tbe appointment of Green B. Baum to
the position of Pension Commissioner,
created but little surprise in soldier circles
yesterday, except that expressed as to the
quality of his soldierly record, which, as
General Baum served in the Western army
is not very familiar to "the boys," of the
Potomac Several times the opinion was
expressed that it needed a star on the
shonlder to get into the planetary orbits of
the Washington Department, as the stars
of a general and the stripes of a corporal do
not seem to work together as harmoniously
now the flag is safe as when it was in
danger. To the question, "What do you
think of Baum's appointment?" the follow
ing replies were uuutineu;
Major James i. Graham "I don't know
anything more of him than his record as an
official, which I understood was clean and
Bhowed energy. I think the appointment a
good one." Major "W. D. Moore "Eaum,
let me see, he was the, man that did that
whisky ring prosecution. The appoint
ment is a very odd one, very odd. I cannot
understand it." C. F. McKenna "Yes. I
heard this appointment was made of a
broken-down politician. The administra
tion had to go to the political graveyard to
get him." Captain Willev "He may be
all right, but nevertheless I think it was a
blank big mistake to remove Tanner."
Major J. F. Denniston "From what I
fcnow of General Baum's reputation I taKe
him to be a cool, level-headed man, in fact
the kind of man needed for the position, and
this I wish to say without any disparage
ment to Tanner, who is a personal friend of
mine."
Captain Crosby Gray: "Baum may be a
good man; I don't know him. He may
have all the cardinal virtues and a few
extra ones, but I'm still for Tanner; I'm
staying right by Tanner." H. H Ben
gough. "Don't know him as a soldier.
Had no opportunity of meeting him
through any of the organizations. 1 sup
pose he is ali right, but I think that as a
soldierhe is not generally known."
Jndges Collier and Slagle thought the
appointment a good one and that the affairs
of the office wonld be fairly and promptly
administered. General AI Pearson thought
the appointment a good one.
CAPT. ADDISON LISLE
Discourses on What He Saw at tho
Gas
IJght Convention In Baltimore.
Captain Addison Lysle, President of the
Allegheny Heating Company and Vice
President of the Allegheny Gas Company;
Major Denniston, of the- Standard Gas
Company; J. H. McEIroy, Superintendent
of the Pittsburg Gas Works; Bob
ert Young, Superintendent of the
Allegheny Gas Works; John Young,
Superintendent of the Allegheny Heating
Company; James McCutcbeon, President
of the Allegheny Gas Company, and Her
bert Hostetter, President of the Pittsburg
Gas Company, returned home yesterday
morning from Baltimore, where they at
tended the seventeenth annual convention
of the American Gas Light Association.
It is a body composed of gas
owners and engineers. " In conversation
concerning .the convention, Captain Lvsle
said: "Sessions were, held on Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday. There were about
200 delegates. We think we have a model
gas works in Allegheny, but the gas works
in Baltimore are the finest in the conntry.
They were visited by the delegates, and
their inspection was very interesting. They
make splendid gas in Baltimore, capable of
29-candle power. About all we can reach
here is 20-candle power. The light fur
nished there is very fine, and the result I
saw at the hotels." They are generally
illuminated by gas. About the only elec
tric light used is a Brush arc light in
the main lobby. It used to be that all gas
was made out of coal. Now the best made
is water gas and oil gas, in a com
bination. We were treated royally at
Baltimore. Thursday night there was an
ezqnisite banquet and on Friday we enjoyed
an excursion on the Chesapeake.
"Next year's convention will be held in
Savannah, Ga. Thereis a souvenir I brought
home with me." The Captain indicated
a small gas meter, shaped like a tiny circu
lar clock on a pedestal, which stood npon
his desk. It is of nickel plate and contains
the inscription, "Presented by the Maryland
Meter Manufacturing Company to Ameri
can Gaslight Association, October 18, 1889."
THE BUILDERS TO DECIDE.
Harry Brown Says the Wheeling; Muddle
Has Been Referred to Henry Morse.
Captain Harry Brown saidyesterday: "I
have received a letter from Mr. B. H. Coch
ran, the President of the Wheeling Bridge
Company, in which he says that onr re
quest for them to keep open the shore half
of the channel span while the repairs are be
ing made has been referred to the Fdgmoor
Bridge Company, of Wilmington, Del., of
which Henry Morse is President. He ex
presses himself in favor'of the request, but
intimates that the right hand half of the
channel span will be the part kept open.
"That will lie a great hardship on us, be
cause it will throw our tows upon the head
of Wheeling Island. That is the way they
put us off: Baird Bros., the sub-contractors,
referred us to the bridge company, they
refer us to the Edgmoor Company, and they
will probably refer nato Baird Bros. I
understand that the contractors are going
ahead to close up the shore end of the chan
nel, leaving us a passage of about 225 feet"
Captain W. B. Bodgers said that he had
been informed by one of the members of the
firm of Baird Bros., that the shore end was
being closed up. Captain Bodgers and
other river operators are decidedly dis
pleased, but are not prepared to say what J
they will do about it. - H
ENGINEER SAMUEL DIESCHEE.
He Gives In Detail .Reasons Why Pittsburg
Inclines Are Safe.
Mr. Samuel Diescher, the well known
mechanical engineer, was yesterday inter
viewed in respect to the late Cincinnati in
cline disaster. Mr. Diescher said that such
an accident was unlikely on Pittsburg in
clines. His reasons .for this assertion are:
First, the steam-brake is supplied directly
from tbe boiler and has a cut-off valve,
or throttle, of its own, independent
of the regular throttle valve, or
other parts of the machinery, and this brake
can stop the motion of tbe drum immediately.
Second, the link gearing, which changes the
direction of the car's motion, is not depend
ent on the stoppage of the engines or cutting
off of the steam, and the cars could be kept
moving till tbe fires were drawn if neces
sary. The two levers forchange of motion
are completely under the control of the pilot.
Even if the engineer were to lose his head or
drop dead, there is no danger, as the safety
cable would prevent accidents.

work is getting on nicely. The rigging for
the last CO feet or stone work is nearly in
shape, and in about ten days Mr. Johnson
will be able to resume the work of laying
stone." A new cargo will soon be here. "We
expect to keep np the work pretty well dur
ing the winter. Of course, on the coldest
and stormiest days work will have to be sus
pended, bnt the men can work during the
greater part of the time. Yon will soon see
the building assume elegant shape.
"No. I never heard a word lrom the de
partment about that Pittsburg man who
went down to Washington and complained
of the tardy work here. I hardiy expected
to hear anything, because I am satisfied that
the department knew that the man was
talking just to hear himself."
MiJ. JOSEPH P. DENNISTOIT.
Ho Discusses Tardiness la Granting Pen
slons to Deservlus; Soldiers.
Major Denniston, while speaking yester
day on the Pension Commissioner qnestion,
said: "It did seem a little out of place to
have a lot of clerks earning lrom $1,200 to
$1,600 per annum rerated and get their
pensions, of which they were not in need,
while many a poor old fellow who has had
his application in for years has been and is
disappointed by delay.
"I have known a case myself in which, a
poor woman whose first husband was a
soldier and her second a worthless drinking
fellow, was put off and put off until three
months before she died. It was lucky she
got her money when she did, as she was
enabled to place it where her husband could
not get it, as that was all he wanted when
he married her. I know of a good many
other cases in which I personally interested
myself, and have written the department
abont where I expect the poor old fellows,
who are in actual need ot the money, will
die before they get it, and their heirs who
did not earn it will have the benefit.
"And yet," said the Major, with a sigh,
"a United States Senator gets rerated ana a
lot of well-paid clerks also get remembered.
Verily, to him that hath shall be given."
FEED G. BROWSING.
A New Telephone Tamed Oat by the Menlo
Park Wizard to Surprise the World.
Mr. Browning, Edison's special agent
from Menlo Park, who has been in charge
of the phonograph exhibition in the Pitts
burg Exposition, said last evening:- "Mr.
Edison has just completed a new phono
graph which is automatic in nearly every
particular. One mnst admit that the pres
ent machine, snch as we have had on shot?
here, is rather complicated in its mechanism
for practical office work.
A novice becomes discouraged sometimes
when he tries to learn how to operate it
The new machine is a daisy. We have re
ceived information of its perfection only
this week. The same sounding board acts
as receiver and repeater by simply throw
ing a switch, while in the present machine,
you know, they are separate. Mr. Edison
is constantly studying now to simplify this
wonderful machine, and he has made an in
strument now which is eminently intended
for practical purposes. It will very soon be
on the market."
Mr. Browning thinksit likely that he will
go from here South, probably to Mexico, to
look after Mr. Edison's interests there.

Roger OMIara Describes the Police Protec

Begarding the light-fingered gentry who
have circulated eagerly around the Expo
sition for 40 days, Superintendent Boger
O'Mara says: "The Exposition is over, and
I mnst say I am not sorry for it, although it
has been a very great benefit to the city.
You will notice one thing, however, that
there has never been an exposition in a city
of this size at which there were so few losses
and so fev attempts at crookedness as at
ours.
"We kept it pretty closely watched, and
no crook dared show his nose in the place.
We had seven special officers there every
day in citizens' clothes, in addition to the
Exhibition police, and Inspector McAleese
and mvself went tnere every evening. There
were fust two drunks taken out of the show
since it opened, and I think that a very ex

CAPTAIN CHABLES JUTT&
No Danger of a Coal Famine Along; the
Iiowcr Mississippi.
Captain Charles Jntte, who has recently
returned from a trip down 'the river, was
asked yesterdayif there was any truth in
the talk so frequently heard lately that the
lateness of the river season might cause a
coal famine in the southwest. He re
sponded. "No danger of it at all. There is an
abundance of coal in all the vards down the
river. There is enough at New Orleans to
last until the 1st of April, and at the two
upper markets, Memphis and Natchez, there
is enough to do until along in January.
There cannot be a coal famine. The rail
roads are able to prevent that if the river
should be closed up, bnt the river traffic is
the only guaranty of reasonable prices."
5IGEL0W ON HALF HOLIDAYS.
Ho Thinks a Saturday Afternoon Should be
Glron to Weary Workers.
Chief BIgelow, of the Department or
Public Works, said, in reply to the remark
or a friend that the offices were very dead
on Saturday afternoons:
"Yes, and I think it should be a regular
half holiday all through. Now, there are
a number of large establishments, Westing
honse for instance, which close up on Satur
day afternoon and let the employes go to
baseball or whatever other amusement they
choose. I think the rule should be made
general and people could get the rest and
amusement they want on Saturday, which
wonld enable them to spend Sunday as it
should be spent and deprive Sabbath break
ers of a very common excuse."
JOHN B. LABKIN.
The Postmaster la an Enthusiast Upon the
National Game and Talks Thereon.
Postmaster Iiarkin is somewhat of an en
thusiast on baseball. He said yesterday:
"I regret that I cannot follow the world's
championship games as closely as I would
like, but still the struggle for supremacy is
interesting.
"Of one thing I must profess the densest
ignorance though, and that is the style of
playing adopted by the Allegheny club this
year. It makes me wish for the good old
days of townball, when we used to biff one
another with the ball instead of getting it to
the bags in advance of the runner. There
may be more science in baseball, but not
half the fun, nor.I believejhalf thefairness."
A CHARMING RECITAI
Prof. Dojle's Paplls Render Sweet Mnslc an
Ahlstrom Pianos.
The piano recital given by the pupils of
the Hiland Piano School at Echols,
McMurray & Co.'s stand at the Exposition
was a decided success. The principal of
the school, Prof. W. a Doyle, deserves the
greatest possible praise lor the admirable
wav in which he has trained his pupils.
It was quite evident that Mr. Doyle has
abandoned the antiquated and absurd modes
ol piano tutelage for the modern style, which
is far more true to art' and to nature, which
is the real foundation of true art. The selec
tion of compositions was very varied, and
the whole performance displayed great brill
iancy of execution.
The names ot the pupils were: Misses
Jennie McMillan, Mollie Stark, Blanche
Powell, Jessie Branlgan, Maud Tressie and
Master W. MacDonald.
The celebrated C. A. Ahlstrom pianos
were used for the occasion. By the way, thia
recalls the extraordinary steps these C. A.
Ahlstrom pianos have made tn public favor:
Their admirable construction and instru
mental value have placed them far ahead of

A Hew Electric Eoad to West Lib
erty Proposed on the Southside.
IT WILL COST ABOUT $350,000.
Councilman Paul Unfolds the flams of tbe
Bicb Capitalists.
SOME BEAUTIFUL PARKS IN PEOSPICT
A new electric railway is contemplated
for tbe Southside. This time Wyoming
street, from the head of the Monongahela
incline, Boggs avenue and the Washington
pike to West Liberty, has been laid out a
prospective route. Quite a nnmber of Pitts
burg capitalists went over the line a few
days ago and are now considering the
cost of the road. It U thought it can be built
for about 5350,000. The road will be over
four miles in length, and will traverse not
only a thickly settled tommunity, but a fine
piece of country, and will be surrounded
with beautiful scenery. There is a great deal
of building in progress between the city line
and Mt. Lebanon, and from there to Wert
Liberty the community is at present thickly
settled. Boggs avenue, the only paved
street on ML Washington, running to the
city line wonld contribute largely t4 the
maintenance of the road, while all of the
roads leading into the Washington pike
would add a large amount of patronage. A.
branch taking in Washington avenne, to
the line or AUentown and Beltzhoover
borough, to catch the travel from those
sections was talked of for some time, but it
has been dropped.
MB. PAUL IK THE SCHEME.
Select Councilman John Paul, who lives
on Mt Washington, is interested in the
scheme, and when seen in regard to the
matter last night said: "I believe an electric
road such as is suggested will be ot great
benefit to the people on the hill. We have
no public means of travel whatever out the
Washington road, and honses are going np
very rapidly. I am not in a position to
divulge the names of those back of the en
terprise, further than to say that they have
the money necessary to- boild the road and
put it in operation.. I am satisfied the road
will be a success. Tbe travel on the Wash
ington pike is immense, and is constantly
increasing- Withoutany competition the road
would draw from all sides along the route
to a wonderiul extent I cannot say what
the road will cost, but it can be bnilt and
put in operation for between $300,000 and
$100,000.
Mr. Paul is in favor of parks for the
Sonthside, and couples the' park scheme
with the advantages ot the new road. On
this subject he said: "When the road is
completed I will make an effort to have
parks established near Mt Lebanon, about
a mile from the city line. It is just the
place for people to go in the hot summer
days to get a breath of pure air.
BEAUTIFUL SITES FOE PASES.
There are two sites of possibly 300 or 400
acres each that can be purchased at a reason
able figure, and being high rolling land, laid
out by nature herself, are especially adapted
for the purpose -They cannot be compared
with the other sites proposed, with allof
which I am thoroughly acquainted. The
tendenc v of tbe people is to go out the pike
for pleasure in the summer, and this fact
increases the demand for the electric road.
On Sundays, from spring until fall, the
road is full of people hunting high ground.
Beal estate ont that direction is on tHe ad
vance, and in a short time the parks would
be plenty near the city."
There was some talk on the Southside
last night to the effect that the Castle Shan
non Bailroad Company contemplated mak
ing an effort to build an electric road over
the same route and thus cut out the other
company, but the report could not be veri
fied. '
