DALEY'S CASE ENDED.
One of Alderman Porter's Constables
Secures an Acquittal.
HO EYIDEKCE FOOND AGA1SST HI&
Two Attorneys Implicated by the Stories of
Witnesses.
THE SKTriiEHENT OF CRIMINAL CASES
A large concourse of people gathered yes
ternoon at the Nineteenth ward station
house, anticipating startling disclosures in
the now famous conspiracy cases against
Alderman Porter, his constables and de
tectives. 'Squire Porter and the Bailey
brothers waived a hearing a few days ago,
and gave bail for court trial.
The other constables and detectives ar
raigned in the indictment are Thomas
Packer, Daley and Lige Shepard. These
men were on hand to answer to the charges
brought against them. By some misunder
standing, however, Packer and Shepard
came in after Attorney Reardon, who repre
sented the defense, had waived a hearing for
them. "When Packer found how matters
had gone, he vigorously protested against
the course adopted bv his lawyer, and de
manded a hearing. He stated that Captain
Brophy, the arresting officer, had distinctly
stated to him that the time of hearing was
between 3 and 4 o'clock, whereas it was an
Hour earlier.
Daley had a hearing. The evidence pro
duced did not implicate him in extortion,
and, therefore, he 'was discharged. His
lriends, after the close of the trial, sur
rounded him and offered congratulations on
the vindication he had received.
JL FOBTC2TE TEIAEB'S STOET.
Mrs. Lida Curry, of Thirty-ninth street,
was the first witness for the prosecution.
She said:
"I was sued before Alderman Porter for
fortune telling, this being the only time I
have ever been sued. Daley came to my
house and told me that I was under arrest.
He read a warrant to me, but the warrant
was sot of the usual size. The hearing was
set for the next day, and Packer went on
my bail. I emploved Mr. O. D. Thompson
as my attorney. "When tne constable ar
rested me he told me that Coroner Mc
Dowell was the plaintiff. Before the hear
ing, however, my lawyer advised me to set
tle the case for ?50. The money was paid to
my lawyer, but I cannot tell how it was
divided. Daley, however, admitted to me
afterward that" he received $4. It may have
been for work done in arresting me."
Mrs. Curry said, in answer to a question
by the Inspector, that there were two wit
nesses, both ladies, brought np against her
at the 'Squire's office.
Mrs. Mary McMinnon was the only other
-witness. She swore as follows:
"I was sued before 'Squire Porter three
times. I was arrested first by 'Old Kreurer,'
then by Packer and Daley, and the last
time by the Bailey brothers. The last time
I was sued my case was held for court, and
Judge "White inflicted a penalty of $170.
The first timt I had a hearing my case was
settled for $40, which I paid to Lawyer Gol
den. The second case was disposed of for
$70. This time Mr. Sullivan was my law
yer, and the money was paid to him."
JLTTOBJtET BEABDOX OBJECTS.
Mr. Beardon remarked at this stage of the
proceedings that she had better not impli
cate him. He vehemently protested against
the trend of the evidence. He said it was
unprecedented to accuse gentlemen at a pre
liminary neanng. wunouuneir Demg aDie
to offer any defense.
Mrs. McMinnon proceeded as follows:
"Alderman Porter suggested to me. the
second time 1 was sued, the advisability of
engaging Attorney aullivan. He said tbat
Mr. Sullivan was a nice man, and that he
was his lawyer. I engaged him. "When I
went to his office to consult about the case
he said to me: 'I must have $10 before I get
off my chair.' I paid him the money. He
then saw 'Squire Porter and my case was
settled for $70, and I paid him tlie balance
of the money in my dining room. 'Squire
Porter and tbe others would have taken
every dollar I owned. They thought I was
a gold bank. They would even have
struck a match and set fire to my clothes if
they could have done no more. As it is,
they riave ruined me. I have not got a
dollar."
"When asked why the Alderman sent the
last case to court, she replied that it was
spite work. "When the Magistrate asked
her if Daley had ever taken any money
lrom her, she said that he hid not, and that
he had treated her in a gentlemanly and
courteous manner. She did not believe that
Daley had defrauded her of one penny.
DALEY DISCHARGED.
This concluded the evidence of the
prosecution. Alderman Hyndman said
that there was no evidence against Daley,
and discharged mm.
Tom Packer was seen after the hearing.
He said: 'My attorney should not have
waived a hearing for me. It was not my
fault about being late. Had the officer
been particular in notifying me of tbe
time of the hearing, I certainly should have
been present. However, things have gone
differently. In the end it will be the same.
I have not had any association with any
gang whose object has been to defraud peo
ple, and I feel consequently happy. My
release is merely delayed until the court
can investigate the charges."
A KINNEI LAD LOST.

PITTSBURG INVENTIONS.
Some f the Rlcveit Tblnes Oat Were
Invented Here.
The phenomenal success of Dr. C. L.
Goehring's wood carving machine places
that gentleman among the notable inventors.
For the past ten weeks he has been attend
ing expositions at Minneapolis, Chicago,
St. Louis and Dallas, at each of which his
displays of finished lumber attracted nch
narked attention tbat he sold 22 machines
Aggregating over "$100,000. There are in
quiries for as many more. Lumber and
architectural journals everywhere agree
that it is the coming machine.
A foil line of finished work, showing a
great variety of patterns, is 1 eing placed in
the Exposition for the benefit or the Pan
Americans. He has already sold a machine
to go to Buenos Ayres.
The AUeghenv Geometrical Wood Carv

in "Western Pennsylvania, Eastern Ohio
and West Virginia, will be reorganized.
Dr. Goehritig is President of this company,
but bis other interests demand so much of
his time that he desires to surrender his
controlling interest in it. The demand for
' finished lumber is such that the works will
be started as soon as the reorganization is

MORE COAL LOST.
Accident to tbe Tow of tbe Lud
Keefer
Near Marietta.

lost a part of its tow at Marietta. The night

built near the head of the island. The
Keefer had eight pieces in its tow. A coal
boat belonging to Gnmbert & Huey, and a
coal barge belonging to Joseph "Walton &
Co., were sunk, and two of Gnmbert &
Huey's boats were grounded.-' Mr. Robert
Gumbert left for Marietta yesterday after
noon to see what could be done to save the
wreck.
TBE EVERETT CLUB PIANO
This Week Will be Delivered to Certificate
No. 261,
Held by Mrs. J.R. Shirey, 75 Carroll street.
Allegheny, Pa., on payments of $1 per week.
The lady who receives this piano is a thor
ough musician and teacher, and gave the
matter of selecting her piano careful consid
eration. She decided to join onr clnb be
cause the piano was the best she could find
in the city, and the price, even on these
small payments, was from $75 to $100 less
than she could bur any other first-class
piano. The advantages of onr club or co
operative svstem is that by contracting for
tbe large number of pianos (350) at one fac
tory we get the lowest possible price, and
having 350 members, each paying .$1 per
week, the piano is paid for in cash each
week. If yon do not want to wait on the
weekly drawings you can get your piano any
time by paying cash, or bv paying 525 cash
and $10 monthly. .Now, d"on't miss this op
portunity. It will not be open much longer.

THE LAWYERS RETURN THEIR THANKS
To the charms of a chastened mellow
glow, paneled walls and lolty ceiline, which
adorn the chamber in the Court House dedi
cated to the use of the Bar Association,
were added yesterday those of three large
portraits of men whom the bar and the
public must always delight to honor. They
are portraits in oil of tbe late Chief Justice
Sharswood, Judge Edwin H. Stowe and
Thomas M. Marshall, Esq. F. M. Magee,
Esq., is the donor. The portraits
of Chief Justice Sharswood and Mr.
Marshall are the work ot Mr. Jasper Law
man, and that of Judge Stowe bears the
name of Mr. A. L. Dalbey. They are all
striking likenesses, and the fidelity and
strength of Mr. Lawman's picture of Mr.
Marshall make it a remarkable work. Tbe
portrait of the late Judge Sharswood repre
sents that eminent jurist, so tbe older mem
bers of the bar said yesterday, as he ap
peared some 15 or 20 years ago. The pictures
ot Messrs. Stowe and Marshall are tastefully
framed in walnut with a narrow band of
gilt nearest the canvas, and Judge jjhars
wood's intellectual face looks out from a
broad frame ot gilt. All the portraits are
about life size.
These handsome works of art, temporarily
placed upon easels, confronted the members
of the Bar Association when they assembled
in their chamber at 2 o'clock yesterday
afternoon. They were greatly admired, and
the generous donor whose modesty, of
course, kept him away from the Conrt
House came in for a good deal of pleasant
praise before the association set to work to
thank him officially. This happened after
some routine business had been cleared off.
"With "William B. Negley, E3q., in the chair
the Secretary read the following letter:
IiETTEK OF PRESENTATION.
'William B. Xegler, Esq., President of tbs Alle
gheny County Bar Association:
Dear Sir 1 have tbe honor to offer tbe Bar
Association for its acceptance the portraits in
oil of three distinguished members of the bar
of Pennsylvania. 4
Tbe portraits are intended as tho nucleus of
a gallery of portraits of members of the bar
and Judges of Allegheny county, which I pro
pose to add to, and others will doubtless do
liken lse, from time to time, as circumstances
permit. r,.
Tbe first of the portraits is tbat of Chief
Justice Sharswood, tbe eminent legal writer
and jurist; the second, that of Judge Stowe,
who has for a long time adorned the bench and
who in point of service is tbe oldest Judge in
the county; the third, that of tbe Hon. Thomas
M. Marshall, who is the oldest lawyer In active
practice at tnis bar and nho has long been an
ornament to tbe profession.
The choice of these three portraits to start a
collection, I have no donbt, will meet tbe ap
probation of the association and hope toe asso
ciation will, by resolution, accept the pictures,
which are now at Oilletpie & Ca's, Wood
street. Very truly, v
F. M. Maokk.
C. C. Dickey, Esq., offered a resolution
expressing the thanks of the association to
Mr. Magee for his gilts. A. M. Watson,
Esq., suggested that the names of tbe
"judges" whose pictures were before them
should be inserted in the resolution. This
was agreed to, and Mr. Kegley then spoke
as follows:
As President of this association I feel that I
should say something at this time. Tbe Rift
that Mr. Magee has made us is indeed a grand
ana generous one. it was a most nappy tnougnt
of his to hit upon such a scheme as this
to start a gallery of pictures which will adorn
this chamber. His selections for such a. gallery
are excellent. Of Judcc Sharswood it can be
said that he reached the highest round ot tbe
ladder. Yon all knew him, or know ot him, as
well as L Of the other two what shall I say?
I understood Mr. Watson to refer a moment
ago to all three as judges. Ererybody knows
tbat Mr. Marshall might have been on the
bench years ago had he but said tbe word. I
have known him ever since 1 was admitted to
tbe bar. in 1846, and he has always been
my warm friend. In I860 he and I were
delegates at the convention which nominated
Andrew G. Curtin for Governor. The Alle
gheny delegation was opposed to Curtin and
refused to vote for him. To win ns over the
.Eastern members asked us to name the Su
preme Court Judge for tbe single vacancy then
existing. A. K. McClure and others begged ns
to offer Mr. Marshall's name, and we asked
hint to allow us to do so. He persisted in say
ing no, however, and we named Agnew, who
was afterward elected. So you see bow easily
we could have made Mr. Marshall a Supreme
Court Judge.
IiATVYERS AND POLITICIANS.
"Again, Mr. Marshall and I helped to nomi
nate Judge Stowe for his first term. People
said: What do we want with a boyt but the I
boy proved to be a good politician and he
reached the bench where he bas proved him
self a good judge. You know what sort of a
politician Mr. Marshall is perhaps all of you
are not old enough to, but such men as Keenan
and Watson know. He was a leader always.
He was bead of the ring at one time, I may say,
and he stayed in tbe forefront of politics here
until politics became too corrupt for him and
be got out. He was an astute politician, but
he never was a trickster. I think he has
the right to be called a grand
old man, though he is not so very old either.
He has bis peculiarities; who has not? And I
should like to know where in the cotmtry you
will find a better man than Thomas M. Mar
shall. As to this generous gift of Mr. Magee,
it was prompted by a big heart, and the found
ing of the cillery is a hanov thought. I would
suggest to my fellow members of the bar that
tbey follow Mr. Magee's example and give us
the portraits of such celebrated lawyers of our
pan as Cornelius Darragb, Loomis and
others."
Mr. A. M. "Watson said that he thought
the Chairman had about pnmped the well
dry, but he would indorse all that Mr.
Negley had said. He hoped the association
would appreciate the spirit of Mr. Magee's
gift. He thought it would be well to pro
cure the portraits of such dead lawyers as
Cornelius Darragh, upon whose good and
great qualities he enlarged. It was well, he
thought, for the young fellows to see that
their predecessors were not forgotten.
GO AND DO LIKEWISE.
Mr. Dickey added a word or two as to the
advisability of others following Mr.
Magee's example. Mr. Magee, he said, in
tended his gift but as the commencement of
a series of donations which he would make
as he obtained sufficient fees to pay for them.
Mr. Dickey thought that such a movement
would check thesordid spirit, properenough
in the sale of haberdashery or groceries,
which was leavening the bar to-day.
T. M. Marshall, Jr., related a touching
episode in Mr. Magee's life, and testified to
that gentleman's good qualities. T. S.
Brown, Esq., oflered an amplification of
Mr. Dickey's resolution, which was ac
cepted, and then ex-Sheriff Gray told how
Mr. Magee had befriended him on the battle
field at Fair Oaks, and ever since. A. W.
Duff spoke warmly of Mr. Magee's gener
osity as a representative of the younger mem
bers of the bar. Mers. "Woodward, Jen
nings, Bell and BidJle also made brief
speeches to a like effect, and this inter
esting incident closed with a passage of the
resolution of thanks by a standing and
unanimous rote.
Blue Monday.
Don't get scared. We don't mean blue
Monday in the actual sense of the word.
What we want to impress on tbe public's
mind is that Monday (to-morrow) we will
devote to a great sale of fine blue goods, in
cluding overcoats and suits, such as bine
chinchillas, blue kerseys, blue beavers, blue
cheviots, etc., not the blue that will fade,
but gennine fast colors which will stand the
most severe test. Now, then, to-morrow we

Arcby Bowand, while honest citizens and
true union men denounce the paper for its
venality and its candidate for his conspicu
ous unfitness and official dishonesty.
The Trades Journal (said to be a scab
journal), repudiated by organized labor, is
for Archy Bowand. Union papers and
union men are for Dick Johnston, because
he is honest and capable.
The laboring classes must not be -deceived
by fake labor papers, stolen labor seals, or
last-day campaign roorbacks circulated by
one who was tried for embezzling
public lands, who now poses as their
champion. A man found dishonest in one
public position must not have a chance to
perpetrate like crimes as District Attorney.
Vote for honest Dick Johnston for District
Attorn ev.
Tne laboring classes should remember
tbat Dick Johnston, candidate for District
Attornev, is an honest man. His competi
tor, Arch Bowand, is indebted to Alle
gheny county over $20,000 for money dis
honestly taken while Clerk of Courts. This
money was taken from the laboring classes.
No laboring man should allow himself to
be cajoled or tricked into voting for Arch
BowanJ, who attempts to cheat and de
ceive you by posing as your friend. He
wronged you in the last office he held.
Don't allow him to cheat you again.
Vote for B. H. Johnston for District At
torney, who is running on his merit, without
appealing to prejudice, but reason and hon
esty. Vote for B. H. Johnston because he can
honestly discharge duties of District Attor
ney, and has no blot upon his record.
Vote for B. H. Johnston and against Arch
Bowand, whose failure to be honest as Clerk
of Courts should prevent erery honest man
from voting for him.
Dick Johnston has always been an honest
man; never violated a trust or betrayed a
friend; genial, gentle, full of kindness to
everybody; always conrieous. The honest
laborer has a champion in him.

Ah there! Stay there! You bet we are
going to get therel
Owing to tbe enormous increase of trade
we have again been compelled to enlarge
our stores. We have said this so often that
we think the printer will soon have it elec
trotyped and ready to set up at a moment's
notice, for the rapid growth of our business
has been without a parallel iu the history of
Pittsburg.
Three months ago we made the large ex
tension to our stores which almost doubled
their capacity and gave us the largest sales
room used fortheretailgrocerytradein West
ern Pennsylvania. "We then thought wehad
room Tor a year anyhow, but soon fonnd our
mistake. For with onr increased capacity
for handling trade, came increased trade,
and before we knew it we were as badly
crowded as ever. We are not going to get
left, however, so we have leased tbe large
warehouse, No. 95 Ohio street, and will use
it tor .packing and shipping goods. , There
are but few grocery stores in either city as
large as this warehouse alone, and there" are
none in the State having either the capacity
or trade of our stores.
We have the carpenters and painters at
work and we intend to show our friends a
model packing and shipping warehouse.
All human beings are liable to err, but
when we have our system thoroughly estab
lished we think the errors ot our snipping
department will be few and far between.
"We thank our friends ior the expression
of goodwill which this rush of trade indi
cates and they can guarantee that we will
hump ourselves in the future to merit its
continuance.
"We are having great bargains in new
eoods this week. Send for our weeklv mice
list and order by mail. Orders amounting
to $10 witbout counting sugar, packed and

LEADERS AT TBE BAR DECLARE FOR
THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEE.
One of the Greatest Fictions or Mr. John
ston' Cnrnpalsn for District Attorney
Exploded Attorneys Who Are Known to
Everybody Vouch for Rowand's Honesty,
Baerary and Ability.
"The Bar .is for JohnstonI" has been the
constant and'most loudly asserted claim of
the Democrats since the opening of the Dis
trict Attorney campaign. "Tho Bar is lor
JohnstonI" has been the burden of the song
of several young attorneys who have had
themselves interviewed day after day, and
who would have the public believe they
represent the men who have made tbe Alle
gheny County Bar famous all over the
country.
That the bar is not for Johnston, but for
Bowand, for District Attorney, any person
who takes the pains to inquire can easily as
certain. Mr. Rowand counts among his sup
porters and firm friends Thomas M. Mar
shall, W. D. Moore, E. A. Montooth, John
Daliell, James H. Bead, John Hampton,
"W. C. Moreland, U. S. District Attorney
Lyon, James S. Young, C. S. Fetterman, T.
H. B. Patterson, Thomas M. Bayne, Gen
eral A. L. Pearson, General Wm. Blakely,
Morton Hunter, Isaac Van Voorhis, John
C. Haymaker, T. S. Parker, K. Q. Bigham,
Clarence Burleigh, Sol Schoyer, Jr., W. D.
Porter and J. S. Feruuson. These gentle
men, with scores of others who are the lead
ers of the Allegheny county bar, and who
represent every class of practice in the
courts, are for Bowand. They say he is ca
pable and honest and energetic, and effect
ually refute the slanders heaped by irrespon
sible persons on the unanimous nominee of
the Republican party.
Lawyers of standing, as a rule, dislike to
be quoted for or against a member of the
profession. But it is not difficult to find any
number who will waive the tule to say what
they believe about Arch H. Bowand. Tbe
following authorized statements represent
the views of all:
T. H. B. Patterson I am most emphatic
cally for Arch H. Bowand for District At
torney, and think any Bepnblican who votes
against him will be doing wrong. The slan
ders against him have been outrageous. Two
juries acquitted him of criminal responsibil
ity for any loss sustained by the connty
while he was Clerk of Courts. Criticism o'f
Mr. Bowand now comes with very bad
grace from any member of the bar. When
be applied tor admission, if his record was
not clear, it wa the duty of the Bar Asso
ciation and the courts to have kept him out.
To condemn him now is condemnation for
those who make the charges. Unlike his
opponent, Mr. Johnston, Mr. Bowand has.
not loafed around the Crimiual Court to
pick up little cases, but, by steady and hard
work, has bnilt up a large practice in all
the courts. He has tbe common sense and
directness that are the great requisites in a
District Attorney. As an all around
lawyer Mr. Eowaud is fully the equal, if
not the superior, of Mr. Johnston, "and he
will make a credible District Attorney.
Thomas A. Noble Bowand earned the
Bepnblican nomination for District Attor
ney in a fair fight against two good men,
and is entitled to the vote of every Bepnbli
can in the county. He has been grossly
slandered and the people, without regard to
politics, should vote "next Tuesday so as to
set the seal of condemnation on the methods
pursued by the Democrats against Rownnd
in this campaign. I regard Mr. Bowand as
thoroughly capable to 011 the office of Dis
trict Attorney, and expect to see him elected.
Thomas M. McFarland I am for Bowand
for District Attorney, and think all Repub
licans should rote for him. He is capable
and energetic and has had the experience
that peculiarly fits him to fill the office o(
District Attorney with credit to himself and
to the county.
B. H. Frazer I will certainlv vote for
Bowandfor District Attorney. He got the
nomination fairly and nnanimouslr. If anr
Bepublicans were opposed to him they
should hare expressed their opposition at
the primaries. Now it is the duty of every
Bepnblican to v 'j for him. He will make
a good District ttorney.
John F. Cox I am for Bowand for Dis
trict Attorney and am doing all I can to se
cure his election. I think all Bepublicans
should vote for him.
J. S. Ferguson Tbe charges that have
been made against Mr. Bowand in this cam
paign are largely bosh. The fact that he
settled the judgment held by the county was
in no sense a confession that he owed the
money. It was merely the act of any pru
dent man against whom final judgment had
uu Kncu. iiciiuciuiu we tact mat tne
Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of the
lower court in the civil suit against Eowand
prove that he owed the county a cent The
case was taken up on a point of law and its
merits were not inquired into by the, Su
preme Court. I don't think Mr. Eowand
got justice in the dispute over his accounts
as Clerk of Courts. Those accounts should
have been audited by the Controller. There
never was an audit, although Mr. Bowand
repeatedly asked for such an examination.
In any event, all the matters that are now
brought forward as arguments against his
candidacy werepassed upon before the pri
maries I consider him capable and can see
no reason why, any Republican should re
fuse to vote fon Mr. Eowand for District
Attorney.
D. R. Jones Mr. Rowand was not my
choice for District Attorney belore the pri
maries. After the primaries I think it mv
duty to vote the ticket as made by tbe regu
lar convention of the Republican party. If
everybody would bolt the ticket because his
favorite was not nominated the Republican
party wouiae oroken up in a few years.
Major S. A. "Will I propose to vote for
Arch H. Bowand for District Attorney, and
think all Bepublicans should do likewise.
J. W. Kirker I have no hesitation in
saying that I will vote for Bowand. I don't
believe Republicans' should scratch their
candidates to please Democrats.
"W. L. Bird I know of many Democrats
who will vote for Eowand lor District At
torney. There is no reason why Republi
cans should not do the same.
General A, L. Pearson I regard energy
and executive ability as the chief requisites
in a candidate for the office of District At
torney. A man possessed of these can save
the county every year three times the
amount of his salary and keep the calendar
always clear. I have known Arch H.
Rowand many years' and hare always re
garded energy and executive ability as his
most marked characteristics. I predict for
him a successful terra as District Attorney.
W. C. Moreland I shall certainly vote
for Rowand,and think he shduid be elected.
Isaac Van Voorhis I am for Rowand for
District Attorney and am certain he will
make an honest and capable official. As a
lawyer I consider Mr. Bowand fully the
equal of Mr. Johnston. He has had much
more experience "in the trial of criminal
cases than either John S. Robb or "W. D.
Porter had when they were elected District
Attorney, and I have no doubt he will ac
quit himself as creditably as did these
gentlemen.
John O. Newmyer I am for Rowand for
DistrictlATtorney.
United States District Attorney Lyon I
am for Bowand for District A ttorney.
George H. Quail I am a Republican,
and am for. Bowand for District Attorney,
and see no reason why any Republican
should refuse to vote for him.
John B. Harbison Bowand was nnnnl.
mously nominated by the Bepublicans for
District Attorney, and I shall certainly
vote for bim.
General William Blakely Eowand will
make a competent District Attorney, and I
think he will be elected.
Clarence, Burleigh Arch H. Eowand is a
hardworking, energetic and studious attor
ney. Since his admission he has built up a
good ciril and criminal practice, and this
is the best possible test of his ability as a
lawyer.
o. a. Shannon Mr. Bowand is entirely
capable and honest, and I believe a majority
of the members ot the bar are for him for
District Attorney.
Morton Hunter I am for Bowand for
District Attoraey,.and I think the state
ments against hint that hare been circulated
by his opponent are slanderous. I regard
his sueeofts m an attorney as remarkable,
and as one of the best guarantees of his
fitness for the place for which he has been
n'omiuated'that could be offered. He is the'
equal, if not the superior, of Mr. Johnston
in ability az a lawyer, and I hare no hesi
tation in saving thatl believe Mr. Bowand's
career as district Attorney will be credit
able to himself and to Allegheny county;
