A FLATTERING SHOWING LOCALLY
Bat He Still
Finds Several
Criticise.
Things to
f HIGH SCHOOL CLASSES TOO LARGE
Ainos M. Kellogg, editor of the Hew
York School Journal, and one of the best
authorities in the country on school subjects,
on the close of a visit of inspection to Pitts
burg, gives a very flattering account of the
schools of the city, in which a little whole
some criticism is mixed. He says:
I found the city bad changed very much
since my previous visit The dirt and gloom
occasioned by the bitnmmons coal fires bad
disappeared; brightness and activity were seen
on every side. Georpe J. Luckey. the superin
tendent ot the schools for nearly 25 years, is a
very popular and level-headed man, and has
done a good work. He courteously opened the
school doors and cheerfully gave me much val
uable information. There are SSO teachers,
30,000 pupils are enrolled, and $320,000 is ex-'
pended for teaching and superintendence a
little over $10 per pupil, and at the outset this
strikes one unfavorably it is too cheap.
A visit was made to the Grant School, Miss
M. J. Graham, principal. Abont COO pupils at
tend, and 1C teachers are employed. There was
a class of 15 pupils in cooking this is the only
manual training given in the city. "About 300
pupils receive instruction in this useful art,"
wonld be the neat way the old school of educa
tors wonld put it. The new school looks at this
more broadly, and says: "They are tanght to
observe carefully, think with a purpose in view,
do for usefulness, and create pleasure by means
of cooking." One thing I noticed; it may not
be worth speaking of, but no class gave such
undivided attention to the teacher, no class
seemed so happy in all my rounds. There was
one boy in the class, and he was as active as the
rest.
The entire building was surveyed. The prin
cipal certainly is an unusually bright woman.
Some of the teachers were doing superior work.
I especially-remember one who was teaching a
class of little children to read. There was a
life, an aptness, an employment of objective
methods that made it apparent the new educa
tion had a true disciple in the person of this
woman. The regular teachers give instruction
in music, and it is well done; all the pupils in
the classes I saw sang by note the simple pieces
selected. Of course in the hasty vi'it I made I
could Dot sample the school with exactness,
but the teachers were plainly down among the
pupils, not up above them. It seemed as though
they said. "Come with me." The spirit of
Frosbel, who said, "Let me live with the chil
dren," seemed abroad. It is educational skill,
and not the rod, that is coming to bo the effec
tive force here.
OBJECTS TO CLIPPIKGS.
Criticisms could be made. Some bad but
partial bold ot the pupils in their classes. In
one class (third reader) slips cut from the
newspapers were used in thi reading class
this here, and I believe everywhere else, must
prove a failure. The newspaper Is not con
constructed for, not adapted to, the school
room. Superintendent Lackey's report shows the
course of study: it does not seem to me to ad
dress the "whole boy" in the spirit of those
Pestalozzian truths that are beginning to
spread over the continent. The spelling book
has been taken down from its lofty pedestal;
and objective methods are somewhat employed,
bat not enough. I learned that here, as in most
parts or the country, there is little power in
the hands of the superintendent: and then again
he has uo one to back him in attempting
advance movements. Suppose he desires to go
forward, will the fossils (always abounding in
city schools) be fonnd at his heels? or the
young and inexperienced girls who enter upon
teaching as a centeel business? For this reason
we urge the plan of Superintendent MacAlister.
of Philadelphia an organized system of in
struction for the whole body of teachers. Su
perintendent Luckey is well qualified fo- this.
1 am afraid there is little study of the science
and art of teaching by the Pitfobnrg teachers.
In the library at the rooms of the Board of
Education. I saw no shelf of pedagogical
books; thinking I had made a mistake, I looked
acain. This has been true ot everv city once.
It is not true of New Haven, Providence,
Springfield. Philahelphia. Washington, and
many other cities now. In time all will have
their libraries ot pedagogical books, and use
them, as the lawyers use their law libraries.
In the afternoon a visit was made to South
Pittsburg to the school of the veteran princi
pal. Cargo. I was glad to see, a few blocks
away, a new and commodious building in pro
cess of erection, for every room was crowded
to the utmost. A spirit of earnestness was vis
ible everywhere; it was a very hive of boys and
girls.
I was met by the principal of the High School,
Prof. C B. Wood, and looked upon the assem
bled students, some 00 in number; it was an
inspiring fight. After visiting several rooms,
and learning the plan of the school, I must con
fess I was both surprised and pleased. The
princioal is no ordinary man. He is not only
desirous of advancing, but knows what to do.
A GOOD MAN MISSED.
Instead of making the school a machine to
fit his pupils for college, he is running it on
broad lines. He has lost a valuable man in
Prof. Jackman, who has been taken away by
Colonel Parker. The interest created by him
in biology is well attested by a visit to his old
quarters. The appointment of Prof. Gutten
berg, from Erie, in his place is a good one:
such men as Jackman and Guttenberg are
hard to find. And then it is hard to find nigh
schools that appreciate them. There was au
energetic commercial department; the rooms
and apparatus for chemistry are inadequate.
Here I found an old colleague. Prof. B. C. Jill
son, who was reckoned a most able man in
chemistry in the Albany normal school while I
was there.
I believe it will not be long before manual
training Will be taken np in Pittsburg; Super
intendent Luckey has put three letters in his
report about this; one from Superintendent A.
P. Marble; one from Prof. Harris; one from
Principal John I). Ford, uf the Baltimore man
ual training school. I esteem Prof. Harris on
some subjects his opinions are valuable; on
this, really worthless. Still, in this be indorses
cookiug. Superintendent Marble Is a bright
man, but no authority on this subject what
ever.
A visit to the High School vesterdav and
chats among the senior pupils corroborated
Mr. Kellogg's "glowing account of its ad
vantages, but they think the classes are too
large, especially in the higher branches, for
the teachers to do justice to the pupils and
themselves.
THE CLASSES TOO LAEGE.
They think it absurd that the classes in
the ward schools, preparing for High School,
will not average more than 10 to 15. while
the class in classics alone at the High School
numbers 40 or over. This they say is unfair
both to the teacher and her charges.
An extra teacher to assist in all' the de
partments will shortly be appointed for the
High School, and some fears are entertained
oy toe scnoiars mat me appointee will pos
sess only the qualifications for a ward school
teacher? This, they say, would be worse
than to let matters remain as they are, as
she could not relieve the overworked
teachers in the higher mathematics, classics,
biology, etc The scholars are as a rule am
bitious in the Pittsburg High School, and
wish for the very best instruction possible to
aid them in completing their course, with
both pleasure and profit. The extra teacher,
thereiore, they naturally desire to have had
an academical course of instruction herself,
so as to be properly qualified to impart the
necessary instruction.

A FAMILY CIRCLE DESTROYED
A Danebter'a Shame Kills Her Mother A
Child. Moiher Dies Prematurely The
Villain Under Arrest.
The arrest ot Tim Daley at his home,
corner of Locust aad High streets. Sharps
burg, last night, on a warrant issued by
Alderman Porter, has brought to light a
shocking case of depravity, which has re
sulted in most heart-rending conse
quences. It appears from the information made by
Thomas Kemp, who lives at the rear of
Kelly's drugstore, corner of Seventh
and Main streets, Sharpsburg, that
the defendant, Daley, came to
board at his house about a year ago, and be
came a member of his family circle. Kemp
had five children, the eldest a girl not 16
years old at the time they received Daley as
a boarder. Kemp observed that his daughter
took a violent tancy to the Doaraer, wnicn ne
apparently reciprocated. The girl gave
birth to two male children early last Sun
day morning.
A most touching scene was witnessed
when the children died. The mother, who
was delirious, clasped them in her arms,
moaning frantically. Mr. Kemp, the girls
father, paced up and down the floor with his
head buried in his hands, weeping bitterly
over the event just transpired, with its at
tendant train of trouble hanging heavily
upon his shoulders. Only three weeks be
fore he buried his wife. Her heart had been
broken by the disgrace which had over
whelmed her child. But another bereave
ment was not long delayed. The child
mother, clasping her dead babes, breathed
her last within a few hours, denouncing her
destroyer with her dying breath. "When
the poor old father realized what had hap
pened, he burst into tears, weeping with un
utterable anguish. Nothing could console
bim. and he tainted dead away, and re
mained in a comatose condition for some
hours.
Before the child mother, Katie Kemp,
died she made a statement to her father in
which she said that Daley was the father.
Her dying words are embodied in the
indictment drawn up by Alderman Porter.
Mr. Kemp after his wife died said he had
hoped that his daughter would have been
able to be miitress of his house, and a
mother to his motherless children. ''She
was a brieht. beautiful and good girl." said
her father, "before Daley came to our house
to board. Then all was sunshine, there
never was a home run smoother than ours
until this trouble came upon us.
Daley was arrested last night by Consta
ble Packer. He had eluded the clutches of
the law for a short time, but he was finally
captured at his own boarding house. He
made no resistance when the officers went to
arrest him, and walked calmly to the Al
derman's office. When the information was
read to him, he burst into a flood of tears,
and his sobs were so loud as to make the
reading of the information inaudible. The
man was held over for a hearing to-day at
10 o'clock a. si., in S1.500, which he was
unable to furnish, going, therefore, to jaiL

BLiCE BEL BALLOTS:
John Keel), Heber McDowell and Bob
Berry Turned Down by
THEBEWICKLEYREPUBLICAfl CLUB
Hon. Walter Lyon and a Friendly Con tin:
gent Were Elected.
EXPLANATIONS IN OEDER AND GITEN
"You doubtless know," said Mr. B. D.
Laytonlast evening to a Dispatch re
porter, "that John Keeb, Coroner Heber
McDowell, and "Bob" Berry, Secretary of
the Allegheny County Eepubliean Com
mittee, were each and severally 'black
balled by the Sewickley Republican League"
Club at its meeting last Thursday night"
"It is, nevertheless, a fact Their names
were recommended for honorary member
ship in the club by the Membership Com
mittee, hut when- the ballots came to be
counted it was found that each of the three
above-named gentlemen had received just
four black balls, the number which would
knock them out I was very angry over
the matter at first, but my curiosity is now
excited as to the causes which led to such
an odd circumstance."
A FEW DETAILS OITEST.
Being pressed to give some details of the
exclusion episode in Sewickley club life,
Mr. Layton explained that the club had
only recently been constituted with a mem
bership of young Bepublicans of the
Sewickley Valley, who made their head
quarters at Pythian Hall, Sewickley. The
club adopted the customary constitution
and by-laws, and proceeded to recruit its
membership. During the week before last
a number of honorary -members, among
whom was Hon. Walter Lyon, United
States District Attorney, were proposed in
a batch by the membership committee. A
motion was made that the rules be sus
pended and the ballot taken collectively.
There was no objection, and the batch' of
names, headed by Hon. Walter Lyon, slid
through like greased lightning, and all was
serene. By the rules of the club the honor
ary members were to duff up SI as a slight
mark of appreciation for the honor con
ferred, with an ulterior destination of the
club'sttreasury.
But at the meeting held on Thursday
evening, October 17, things assumed a dif
ferent hue: The membership committee
made its report, and recommended for
honorary membership, Messrs. John Neeb,
Heber McDowell and Robert Berry and a
number of other well-known gentlemen. A
club member took the floor and requested
that no suspension of the rules be allowed,
as the members of the club desired to vote
upon the list of names seriatim. No com
ments were made, and by general consent
the balloting proceeded, each man taking
his chance.
THE DEADLY BLACK BALL.
"Mr. John Neeb," sang out the teller.
The ballot box uassed around. "Four
blackballs," remarked the teller. (Surprise.)
"Mr. Heber McDowell," enunciated the
teller. The ballot box circulated. "Four
black balls," remarked the teller. (Sensa
tion )
"Mr. Bob Berry," Tentured the teller.
The deadly ballot box went the rounds once
more, and in moribund silence the teller
timidlv remarked, "four black balls."
(Tempest)
''Whohath done this thing?" asked an
amateur actor in a stage whisper.
President Alfred Moore rapped for order.
There was a unanimous shiver.
Then a well-known politician who affili
ates with neither wing of the Allegheny
county camp, arose and wanted to know whv
in blank such an affront had been offered to
such leading Bepublicans and he here
enumerated their titles and importance in
the party had why the club chose to cioud
its early days by such 'a put-up job. There
was no answer forthcoming and the meeting
broke up in suppressed disorder, if such a
term is admissible.
It is understood that certain of the club
members justify their conduct by asserting
that "Messrs. Neeb, McDowell and Berry,
are Tariff Club men and affiliate with people
not popular with us."
It is the commonly expressed belief that
the excuse given is rather flimsy, and that a
dynamite train of politics is lurking under
the blackballing. Lively developments are
looked for at the next meeting of the club,
Thursday evening, October 31.
JOCULAB JOHN NEEB.
Local investigation into the blackballing
in the Sewickley Bepublican League Club
showed that there are two factions existing,
one in the Quay interest and the other loyal
to Mr. C. L. Magee. The remark made by
one of the members of the club when the
three names were propo.ed was: "They are
all Tariff Club men, and thev have enough
to do. to attend to their own business with
out coming out here to manage ours."
The whole idea of blackballing the people
who were proposed for honorary member
ship was simply laughed at by the candi
dates last night, each one of whom had been
pressed to become members of the club by
people connected with the organization.
John If. Neeb, one of the victims of the
quadruple black ball inhibition to enter the
sacred portals of tire Sewickley Club, last
night said while enjoying the fact that he
had been actually put in the infusion of
meat, or the infusion of ideas, at last Thurs
day's meeting:
"I was asked by one of the best citizens of
Sewickley some weeks ago to join the Be
publican club there. I replied that as an
officer of the Allegheny Central Bepubli
can Club and a member of the Tariff Club,
I had enough to do to satisfy any demands
upon my time which would allow me an
hour or two a day to devote to my own busi
ness. I said, if you want a little
something to help the funds out
here is a 55 bill. He replied
no, he only wanted $1 and handed me back
the change. I suppose I was proposed and
you tell me I was blackballed. It is sad,
very sad, because I would not like to have
the'spot ball played on me in a game of that
kind and I suppose the whole thing was a
mis-cue."
THINKS THERE'S A DIFFERENCE.
"I still think, however, that the gentle
man who proposed my name is the peer of
the man who caused the trouble, if there
was any trouble, which T cannot say, as I
was not present I shall also say that the
first gentleman mentioned is a longer resi
dent bv many years of Sewickley than the
man who came down from Harmarsville to
run affairs in the borough.
"It is an easy matter if you make it an
object to get four black balls thrown
against nnycandidate and it requires just
about as little brains in the head that con
ceives the idea as it does in the black ball
cast There are some of the most amusing
incidents in the election of members that
you have everseen. Bepublicans have
been elected members of Democratic clubs
and vice versa. The vote of which you
speak indicates nothing beyond the fact
thai the club in question is somewhat di
vided, and that the opposition to me per
sonally can muster up four members. Oth
erwise the black balls would have been nu
merous enough to supply a game of solitaire
for the people who threw them.

A IANDMAEK TO GO,
Tbo Old Tray Hill Cemetery to be Bought
by Allegheny City Slay be a Park In
View.
St Philomena's Gathollo Cemetery, on
Troy Hill, will in a short time cease to exist
The Allegheny civic authorities have con
ceived the idea of purchasing the property
from the Eedemptorist Fathers to whom it
belongs. The use to which the ground
will be put is not yet decided. Father
Velschkamp-, of St Philomena's, Liberty
street, was seen yesterday evening. He
said:
"The whole property belongs to our order.
It was opened nearly 50 years ago, shortly
after the founding of St Philomena's
Church, and has been extensively used ever
since by Allegheny and Pittsburg Catholics.
The city will buy the site, and all the mon
uments must go. If the relatives of those
buried'there in the cemetery wish to re
move the bodies to the ne"w cemetery on the-
Perrysville road, they can have lots there of
the same size as those held by them in 'the
old ground. If they do not want to do so,
their monuments will be removed. All re
movals of bodies must be paid for by the
relatives themselves.
"The old chapel, which stood in the ceme
tery,is to be pulled down and the bricks will
go to the Catholio Orphan Asylum. There
is a new chapel on the Perrysville road
cemetery."
Mr. Henrr Terheyden. a prominent resi
dent of the neighborhood, and owner of one
of the old cemetery lots, was seen suose
quently, and declared that the monuments
could not be destroyed without permission
from everyone of the lot-holders.
"I have little doubt," he continued, "that
there will be a good deal of trouble in getting
old-time lot-holders to waive their claims to
the cemetery."
It is stated that the failure of the Park
Committee to satisfactorily dicker with the
Watson heirs for a slice of land for park
purposes, has directed attention to the ceme
tery. There are upward of 25 acres in the
cemetery plot There is likely to be a lively
opposition to the plan of dislodging present
lot-holders in the old cemetery even with
the prospect of an allotment of an equal
amount oi space in the new.
COUKTI DEMOCRATS 05 DECK.

sending personal notices to each member,
and the hall was packed.
Besolutions were adopted indorsing the
full Democratic ticket and pledging the
members to take an active part on election
day. Henry Meyer, W. J. Brennan, Dr.
C. C. Wiley, B. McKenna and Patrick
Foley were appointed a committee to confer
with a similar committee from the Bandall
Club with the intention of devising the best
method of getting out the full Democratic
vote. Encouraging reports were received
from various Darts of the countv. Another
meeting will be held next Tuesday.
A TENEMENT OWNER PB0SECDTED.
Inspector McAleese Makes Information
Against John Wunderlich.
Inspector McAleese yesterday entered an
information against John Wunderlich,
owner of the tenement at the corner ot
Second avenue and Ferry street, known as
the Old Cooper Shop, for renting houses for
immoral purposes.
The police several months ago made a raid
on this building, and cleared it of a lot of
well-known disreputable characters, at the
same time notifying Wunderlich that if he
allowed that class of people to inhabit the
building again they would hold him re
sponsible. Wunderlich, they say, has dis
regarded this notice, and now hai as bad1 a
crowd in the house as before. Wunderlich
furnished $1,000 for a hearing before Magis

SATED BI A CRANE.
A Tag Capsizes at Dnvli Island and Almost
Drowns Five Men.
Yesterday afternoon a very peculiar acci
dent occurred at Davis Island dam.
At the dam is a small tugboat, on which
a crane is operated, and is carried across
from one side of the river to the other to use
in case of emergency. , Yesterday afternoon
the boat was being taken across the river
just at the time the wickets were being let
down. Something "under the water caught
the boat and swamped it As the boat went
down under the water, the half-dozen men
on the tug climbed up on the crane, the top
of which stayed above the water. The men
clung about the crane until rescued from
their position by men in skiffs.
Overcoat Thieves Around.
This kind of weather is both suggestive
and tempting to the overcoat thief, and it
will pay to keep a close watch on offices.
Door mats are comparatively safe at this
season. A thief entered No. 93 Diamond
street yesterday, and when he left a young
lawyer's coat went with him. The thief
evidently took the garment for use, as there
were several in the room from which to
choose.

A
Noted Electrical Expert Rather
Goes for the Wizard. ..
HE CLAIMS HIS WIEES.ARE CHEAP.
The Edison Theory of Imperfect Insulation
, Eidicule'd.
PITISBDRG'S PRECAUTIONS PRAISED
Captain Willard L. Candee, of the Oka
nite Wire Company of New York, and one
of the oldest telegraph men in the country,
passed through the city yesterday on his
way home to New York from a Western
trip. He stopped )ver in the city to visit
his friends, S. A. Duncan, General Agent
of the Allegheny County Light Company,
and Superintendent Morris Mead, of the
Fire Bureau. Captain Candee remained
over partly on account of the recent over
head wire agitation in Councils Monday
afternoon. In an interview he stated that
there was not the slightest danger of any
casualities like those in New York from the
overhead electric wires in Pittsburg. He
also gave some of the secret history of the
cause of the trouble in the metropolis, and
lays the blame mostly upon the Edison Com
pany. In the interview he said:
"In his testimony Mr. Edison is quoted as
saying that there is no such thiug as good
insulation. It will be borne in mind that
Mr. Edison's company manufactures and
sells a wire known as the underwriters'
wire.
PAINTED COTTON BEAID.
"The latter was approved by the Board of
Underwriters of New York, and was used
all over the city. It is not much more than
painted cotton braid, and would not be used
'in this city. I do not know of anybody
using it outside of New York, because it is
no good.
"Mr. Edison's wire does not stand the ex
posure to the air and elements, on account of
its poor quality.
"Therefore in order that his wire may
stand the voltage, the voltage of all other
companies must be reduced to'that of his
company, in order that the system may be
nearly perfect The voltage of his system
will not exceed 300, while that of other arc
light companies will run up to 2,000 volts.
"If the overhead wires are so dangerous
in Pittsburg and New York, why does the
Board of Electric Control in the latter city
allow the insulated wire to be continued ia
use? If all the wire is dangerous, why do
they not stop the work of stringing it? The
whole cause of the trouble is, first, im
proper construction; second, imperfect insu
lation, and third, neglectful inspection. If
a line is constructed properly, the best
quality of insulation used and a proper in
spection is made there can be no danger
from the wires.
NO DANOEE IN PITTSBUEO.
"In this city the Okanite wire is used.
You cannot make an abrasion in it by
twisting, and there is not the least danger
of anybody being killed by coming into
contact with the wires. I am firmly con
vinced by years of experience that it is not
necessary to put the electric light wires in
this city under ground.
"It was stated in New York that there are
no poles in the streets in London. This
gives out the impression that the wires were
underground. The statement is all right,
but on the housetops in London the poles
stand almost as large as they do on the
streets of this city. In no country in the
world has there been so much study given
to the matter as in the United States. As
proof of this I may state that we are shipping
cur wire into London nnder the noses of the
English manufacturers.
"It is also a deplorable fact that' Expert
Wheeler should send out Western Union,
linemen to inspect the insulation of the1
wires. What do these men know of electric"
light insulation? They never did anything
bnt make joints, and are not the proper per
sons to make such an inspection. When Mr.
Edison says there is no such thing as in
sulation he does not speak according to the
facts. In this city our wire has been up for
three years, and is still in good condition."
Captain Candee has written a paper onhe
matter which will appear in one of the elec
trical journals.

ATAIjEOPDISTKESS.,
An Aged Woman Who Meets With Most Un
toward Fortune.
A most pathetic case is now being consid
ered by the poor boards of the two cities.
"Mrs. Lentznar, an aged woman, is homeless
through a distressing chain of circumstances.
Her son Frederick married some time ago
and brought his wife to a house in Law
renceville, partially paid for by the use of
his mother's 5400, the savings of years.
The son sickened, died, and the wife went
back to her parents. The house was sold and
the 70-year-old woman was forced to take
refuge with a family living at No. 104 Madi
son avenue. The responsibility for her main
tenance is not yet settled.
ANOTHER FIRM SIGNS
Making Four Which Have Granted
the
Demand of the Molders.
One other firm signed the demand of- the
molders for the 10 per cent increase yester
day, making four in all which have made
the concession.
The name was, by request, withheld from
publication. There is nothing to be added
to what appeared in yesterday's Dispatch
concerning the matter.
A Stovo for Ten Cents.
Fisher Stranger, a Hebrew junk dealer,
was arrested by Officer O'Neal, of Moorhead
& McClean's mill, yesterday afternoon, and
locked up in the Fourteenth ward station on
a charge of receviing stolen goods. It is al
leged by O'Neal that Stranger bonght a
large gas stove for 10 cents from several
boys who had stolen it from the mill.
He Kept the Horse.
Samuel Burns entered a charge of larceny
by bailee against Louis McKelvy, yester
day, before Alderman Burns, alleging that
the defendant refused to return a horse be
had left in McKelvy's stable. McKelvy
was arrested last night and gave bail for a
hearing to-day.

, icOia'TBT TOtfTflS' ROBBED. .
' -': -.t v. J
They Flirted With Two. PIttibnra; Women
and liOit Their Money.
Mrs. Mollle Camp and Lizzie McCarty
were given b hearing'lbefore Magistrate Mc
Kenna last night, and held for court in de
fault of $1,000 bail, each, on a charge of rob-,
bing two young men from-Beaver Fairs.'
The two men are J.wi.. Wilson and David
Welsh, They came to town Monday to jee
the sights. About 3 o'clcck yesterday morn
ing they went into Manning's restaurant on
Eleventh street where thev got a lnnch.
While there two rather nice looking girls ,
came in ana oegau nirtmg witn
them. The Beaver Falls youths struck
up an acquaintance, ana the party
left the place, the young men paying for the
lunch ot the women. They started for the
home of Mrs. Camp on Spring alley. On
arriving therathe youths were afraid to go
into the house. When they got away,
Welsh missed a wallet and $35 which he
had carried in his inside pocket He met
Officer Bumbaugh, who arrested the women
and took the men along as witnesses. The
matron at the Central station searched both
the women, but could find no money. The
men were so positive that the women had
robbed them and gave their evidence so
clearlyjit the hearing that the magistrate
held them ior court.
Mrs. Camp Is regarded by the police as
one of tne sharpest females in the city."
Numerous cases, such as the one above,
which have occurred recently, are believed
to have been her work, although she is so
shrewd that it is almost impossible to trip
her up. She conducted her own defense at
the hearing last nijjht, and the way sbe
cross-examined the witnesses would have
done credit to an old barrister. She was
supposed to be a member of the notorious
"Dirty Dozen" that flourished in the Fifth
ward a few years ago, when she was known
as Mollie Moran. She is the wile ot Dick
Camp, who is now serving a term in the
workhouse. The police say she has been
arrested a dozen times within two years,
but Has always been shrewd enough to cover
her tracks, and get off. It was under the
steps of her house on Elm street that some
boys found a package of (1,000 in cash a few
months ago. The police believe she bad
stolen the money, but she managed to clear
herself of the charge. Her companion,
Lizzie McCarty, is also known as Lizzie
Warner.
IHE GLASS STRIKE STILL ON.'
Both Sldet Determined to Fight Ont the
Iune to the End.
The strike in the O'Hara factory against
the use of the mold for "shaping glass
pitchers is still, in the same position as it
was yesterday. Ko conference has' been
held between the men and their employers,
and the works are likely to remain idle for
some time.
When the packers have finished np their
present work, they will be idle should
they not try for employment elsewhere. The
conflict will be a lengthy one. On the one
hand, the Flint Glass Workers' Union has
determined) to try conclusions with the firm,
principally because it has, promised another
establishment to proceed against this firm
for using the "former," and because it claims
that a boy is now used to do a man's work,
which, in fact, is not the case; and on the
other, the firm claim that they have benefited
the men by increasing their earnings; that
they have not dispensed with a single man,
and that since the "former" has been so
long in use it becomes ridiculous now
to pretend that it in any way interferes with
the scale or with the profits of the men con
cerned in its. use.
The subserviency of the members of our
organization to its executive, ia very well,
exemplified in this instance where the men
directly concerned were willing to continue
work, but were coerced into striking against
their own feeling of right and equity by a
few men whom they had placed in the posi
tion ot dictators, to themselves, (heir fami-
jiiej.anu tneir employers.

Pittsburg Friends Secure a Writ of
Habeas Corpus in Columbus.
STELLA EKFUSES TO KETUBi? HOME
Her .lover and Uest friend, FaiL' to Influ
ence. Jer- Favorably.
SHE WILL DO AS BEE MOTHER BUS.
The celebrated Stella Weir case, in which
Alderman Hartman was vigorously assailed
for exercising a self-conferred right to im
mure the girl in a Columbus religious insti
tution, thereby invoking the wrath of the'
Jr. O. U. A. M. order, came UP .in Colum
bus yesterday in. the shape of a writ of
habeas corpus, secured by the young man
who was Miss Weir's best, friend in the pro
ceedings before Alderman. Hartman.
The following telegram, giving the inter
esting developments in the ca?e, was, re
ceived by The Dispatch from .Columbus,
O., last night. . It is self-explanatory:
Miss Stella Weir, pf Pittsburg" who was
sent' to the Convent of the Good Shepherd
in this city by her mother, was brought De
fore Judge. Pugh to-day on a writ of habeas
corpus, at the instance of Miss Letitia Gib
son, a friend, who came from Pittsburg, to
gel Miss-Weir to return home, Hiss Gib
son was accompanied by Samuel Ansill, of
Pittsburg.
Miss Weir was brought to court by Father
Martimes and one of the sisters. The two
young ladies and Mr. Ansill, beld a consult
ation. It soon developed that the Pittsburg,
people were going to fail in their efforts
to get the young lady to go home, for Miss
Weir declared.she would not go back unless
she had the consent of her mother. Miss
Gibson begged her friend to reconsider her
decision, but it was of no avail, and at last,
after Judge Pugh had dismissed the peti
tion, the young ladies kissed each other and
parted. It was understood between them
that Miss Gibson was to telegraph to Miss
Weir's mother, and if the latter gave her
consent, Miss Weir was to accompany her
friends to Pittsburg.
Subsequently Miss Gibson, whose face
betrayed evidence of suppressed emotion,
said: "Well, we'll never get her now;
She's gone. She promised me to go when I
talked' with her last night, and she's written
me a number of etters telling me bow she
would .like to leave. Somebody influenced
ber-since." Ansell and Miss .Gibson are
telegraphing to-night to get the consentof
the mother to bring Miss Weir home, and
there was late information that some one
would be sent for her.
POETEE STILL DENIIKO.
Rumors of a Sensatioaal Nature Prefutrd
by tan IawrencevIII!an.
Alderman Porter absolutely denies a
statement published by an evening paper,
that his office Bad-been deluged by men who
have had hearings before him,and who hear
ing of the charges against him, think their
evidence will help to convict him, offering
not to appear if he will refund them half of
the exorbitant fines he inflicted.
The Alderman says the whole statement
is false, and groundless. He has been
bantered a Ijttle by his friends who. joke
him about giivng evidence against him when
the trial is brought up in court. This is all
that he has ever heard of the refunding of
money.

right to go elsewhere. -
Mr. Snaman, Chairman of this committee,
said that all the city property had been'ez'
amined, and he gave fall explanations why
the committee could find nothing suitable.
As for Mr. Brown's position, the committee
had not tried to locate the plant, but re
ported, to Councils, who could locate the
plant where, they pleased. 'When 'the roll
was called' 'the' resolution was passed, Uf.1
