i. BID OS 550 TONS OP BAE BEFDSED
The attendance at the sale of Long & Co.'s
stock at Chartiers by the Sheriff yesterday
was large and the competition spirited.
Had there been a disposition to allow a
slaughter all the stufi might have been
closed ont in a short time, bnt Attorney W.
F. ilcCoot constantly consulted Mr. long
as to prices, and when they did not suit he
called a halt Assignee JIcKel vey was also
on hand locking alter the interests of the
Lawrence Bank, and kept close watch on
the proceedings. There were some
passages at arms between Mr. Mo
Cook and some of the bidders,
lie insinuating rather broadly at times that
there might be a combination among them
to keep down prices. There were some
bargains gotten in odd lots of scrap, but on
the whole good prices were realized, many
bidders seeming determined to have stock
so long as they could get it at a price that,
freight added, wonld lay it down at their
works. It was stated that pig iron sold at
an aTerage of $17 05 per ton.
BIO FIRMS AS BUYERS.
The first lot of pig, all ore, was knocked
down to A. M. Brers & Co., at 17 55,
about 200 tons. Scott & McLean took in
1,500 tons of cinder, Girard, Isabella and
Soho. J. H. Clemens took some Republic
ore at ?6 50. and J. "W. Friend a lot at 57,
loaded on cars. Mr. Friend, who was buy
ing for the Clinton Iron and Steel Company,
went for mnck iron by bidding 530 first
jump for it, and then Byers & Co. got some
at the same price. Friend got 40 tons fag
gots at 527 80. J. B. Jones & Bro. got 20
tons horseshoes, old, at 521 50 per ton.
Friend took a lot of Silica fire brick at 515,
and a lot of common at various prices, the
whole being considered cheap. Klein, Lo
gan & Co. took a pile of pick iron at 1 7-10
cents.
A rush was made to take in a 550 ton lot
of merchant bar iron of various sizes, bnt it
dragged more heavilvthan anything else
offered. There was considerable growling
among bidders because they were not al
lowed to bid for the sizes they wanted and
several who wanted certain sizes refused to
bid at all. It was finally held over until
next Tuesday on an offer of 51 75 per cwt.
It was said there was some 560 iron in the
lot
BARGAINS IK MOTIVE POWER.
The fnn began when four mules were
offered. They vere bargains foranyone who
wanted that kind ot motive power, and
wonld have brought more it offered on
Duquesne way. One big black fellow,
standing 16 hands high, said, to be 7 years
old and able to draw three tons, was sold to
Mr. McChesney for 585, and the rest -went
at 515, 510 and 512, respectively. These
were somewhat sway-backed, knock-kneed,
and with cornice on their .hoofs, but very
serviceable animals, nevertheless. A big
bay mare went for 526 and six sets of heavy
harness, a wagon saddle and two carts, were
all sold for 530, giving rise to the suspicion
that they were bonght in.
After the refusal to let the bar iron go,the
sale lost its interest for a considerable num
ber of bidders, bnt some brokers and scrap
iron dealers remained and a lot of old pipe.
a blower, two barrels of mill grease, a pile
of coal, 100 finished and some unfinished car
xtIp a small pile of turnings, a lot-of rails
and grate bars, plow points, old boilerplate,
pine framing timber, muck scrap, etc., were
Bold. A pile of hook iron was held over on a
bid of 523 50; muck scrap brought 525 50,
turnings ic and the finished car axles 51 95
per cwt.
RECEIPTS WEBE SATISFACTORY;
The parties in charge of the sale expressed
themselves well pleased with results. There
was a fair sprinkling of lawyers present
who sawed wood and said nothing, but were
supposed to carry judgments in their
breechaloonB pockets.
The remainder of the stock will be offered
next Tuesday. Mr. McCook gave notice
that it wonld be well for" buyers to get their
stuff off the ground betore January 6, as the
Dollar Savings Bank will take a shy at the
mill on that date, and he wonld not under
take to state, before seeing Mr. Guthrie,
what, grace the bank might be disposed to
allow yesterday's buyers.
Meantime some hollow-eyed people ,in
Chartiers disconsolately ask all whom they
think may have inside information, what
the prospect of a rehabilitation is. These
people will suffer more from the stopping of
the mill than will the owners.
UPON GALLACIAN IMMIGRATION
Consnl Max Sehumbcrg Seta a Controversy
nt Rest.
Mr. Max Schamberg takes exception to
the expressions of opinion with regard
to Gallacian immigration. He said yes
terday: "There have been no dis
closures of any great magnitude. What
has been done by the Austrian Government
is purely in accord with the immigration
laws here. They don't allow anyone to leave
the country without a passport, because
they desire to avoid trouble with this coun
try, and knowing as Uiey do that arriving
here, they must show their ability to make
a living, and, failing to do so, they are sent
back.
JThe law with regard to passports is also
strict, forthe purpose of preventing pauper
immigration. In doubtful cases no pass
port is given unless their friends in America
send evidence that they are able to maintain
them. The Austrian Government permits
no swindle, and they are more strict with
regard to immigration than anything else."

THE EXECUTIVE BOARD OP T. C.
Has Examined tbe Evidence In the John M.
Kellv Case Evans' Statement.
The Executive Board of the Central
Trades Council has held a special meet
ing to hear the evidence submitted by
L. A. 6111 in support of its charges against
John M. Kelly. The entire testimony was
read, and it was decided to transmit it to the
meeting of the council on Saturday evening.
Mr. Joseph L. Evans asked permission to
read a statement in the nature of a personal
explanation. The statement commenced as
follows:
I have noticed with some amusement the at
tack of J. M. Kelly against certain people
whom he charges with being a detriment to the
labor movement. I ask, "How lone has John
M. Kelly been a member of a labor organiia
tionT" Just 25 months. Howlonghavelbeenj
Every printer in the city will answer: 25 years!
"I will compare working cards with yon, Johnl"
Mr. Kelly assumes that he is now, or will be ex
pelled from the Council. I do not know why he
assumes this. 1 have no right to speak for the
C. T. Council and I know he has no more right
than X. He says that the old Trades Assembly
had an unsavory record. He prevaricates.
The record of the old Trades Assembly is an
honorable one. Only once in its history did it
make a mistake, that was In 1888, when it went
into politics. The change of name was effected
in Ss, when the Chairman of tbe Committee on
the Revision of tbe Law (John M. Kelly) said
that the new title was a 'more high sonnding
name. Nothing was then said about "unsavory
record."
Mr. Evans then charges that in 18S8 in the
Council John Kellv-said that he and another
gentleman would bring into the council dele
gates from every local of the A. F. G. W.
Union, and that he has not done so. "When
asked why. he replied that the flints wanted
"new blood." As he and I were the only nomi
nees for president, it is presumed that he rep
resented tho "new blood." It was decidedly
new,' too. He had not then belonged to any
labor organization moro than U months.
Referring to the Jeannette case Mr. Evans
said that L. A. 800 first suspended and then ex
pelled John Philips for disobeying an order
which was not issued until after the alleged ot
f.mo mi committed. Phllioi was before the
council on the 15th of May. L. A. 3008 prohib
itive order could not have been issued earlier
than the 17th of May. After the three months'
suspension be was tried on the same charges,
with the-addition of "and for subsequent ac
tion." "Kelly says Ehman
is a carpetbagger. If so, what is Mr. KellyT
He comes from Lancaster, Pa., Ehman from
Wheeling, W. Va. I know of no
law preventing a citizen, from chang
ing bis residence. Mr. Evans said
that no portion of the L. A S00 minutes were
in his hands, and as regards their publication,
there were two non-union papers in the city at
the time of tbe difficulty between Campbell and
McGaw. These were the only papers that
contained abnse of McGaw. He knew who
furnished the alleged facts to these papers. L.
A. 6111 brought tbe Jeannette case into that
council because tbe members voted for it
Mr. Evans concludes by referring Kelly
for evidence as to his character in tbe labor
movement to the columns of his paper np to
last January, and says that if men are to be
punished for sustaining a United States
law the Central Trades Council intends to
express its opinion.
KRIS KRINGLE'S CHOICE!
Sought for by Everyone and Fonnd All Over
the City.
Best Christmas cheer is Hipley's beer.
Pure home-brew'd "barley-corn."
"Well may it be said, "more truth than
poetry." From time immemorial has saint
and sinner alike conceded, from personal
experience, the health sustaining properties
of malt and hops. Even the highest medical
authorities, to their Humblest patient, have
attested the invigorating and wholesome in
fluences of pure home-brewed beer, ale and
porter. Not foreign importations, sold
mainly upon the merits of a name, but hon
est, nutritious beverages such as our es
teemed citizens, Hipley & Son, of Spring
Garden avenue, have won enviable notoriety
with in this community. Articles of spark
ling purity that reflect" their own merit, and
foam defiance for superiority equally a
household necessity as' a holiday luxury,
and an unerring sequel to health and
longevity. This is no mere bombast but a
Slain statement of absolnte facts, borne out
y the substantial and uncontrovertible tes
timony that where tbe product ot wis brew
ery was only 4,000 barrels perannum, when
Mr. Hipley took hold of it (five years ago),
to-day it is putting out over 16,000 barrels,
while an extension of premises and facilities
is already under way to even quadruple its
capacity, with the additional advantage of a
modern ice machine, capable of producing
50 tons of ice every 24 hours. "Now, such
facts speak for themselves, and prove be
yond all peradventure the fullest apprecia
tion of the public for a pure and reliable
article. To accommodate alike "their ex
tensive family trade and supply to dealers,
these sparkling beverages are put up
in eighths, quarters, half and whole
barrels, the services of no fewer than
nine teams being reserved by Hipley & Son
to rush out their popular manufacture in
wood, while in bottles their various brews
are put up and promptly shipped by Mr.
Geo. Bahn, 235 Spring Garden avenue, and
Messrs. Kanopsky & Co., of 76 Taggart
street, Allegheny, who will be pleased to
promptly 11 holiday orders. Begardless
of the "hundred and one" claims emanating
from other sources, Hipley & Son pin their
faith to the purity, strength and uniformity
of their beverages, and simply ask the es
teemed favor of a trial to bear out the truth
fulness and sincerity of the ioregoing asser
tions. Do not content yourself with simply
asking for Hipley's beer, ale or porter, out
see that you get it, ana your satisfaction
will be complete. Whether a novice or
connoisseur in such matters, you will prompt
ly appreciate their superiority over any
other beverage you may have been indulging.
Let not the holidays pass over without giv
ing them a square, honorable test, and so
sure as yon do, just so sure will you realize
what it is to become delighted. No longer
will yon cherish the monstrous delusion
that everything must be imported to be
the best, while you will further
share the satisfaction of having evidenced
the truly cosmopolitan spirit of assisting
local enterprise and encouraging home in
dustry. A Grand Department.

A $600,000 DEAL MADE
Tbe Philadelphia Gas Co. Sells Its
Magnificent Building.
THE AIRBRAKE THE PURCHASER.
What the Structure Will be Devoted to in
the Future.
THE ALLEGHENY BITE WILL BE BOLD
The magnificent office building owned by
the Philadelphia Company at the corner of
Fenn avenue and Ninth street has been sold
to the "Westinghouse Air Brake Company.
The amount paid is a round $600,000.
The sale was made at a meeting of the
Board of Directors of the company, held in
the officeof George Westinghouse Wednes
day afternoon. The meeting continued in
session until after 6 o'clock. A Dispatch
reporter interviewed a number of the di
rectors, but as the deal had not been com
pleted at that time they would not say any
thing about it Since then it has been de
veloped that the only business transacted
was the authorization of the sale of the
bnilding to the air brake company.
The property was purchased by the latter
company as an investment Some time ago
The Dispatch published the fact that the
directors ot the Philadelphia Company were
dissatisfied with the great scale upon, which
the building was being finished. At that
meeting George Westinghouse, President of
the company, said it was a good investment,
and stated that he was ready at any time to
take the bnilding oft their hands. He has
accordingly done so by the late transfer.
A handsome pile.
The erection of the building was begun
about three years ago. It took about 2
years to complete it The building cost
about $250,000 and is without doubt the
finest office building in the city, if not in
tbe State. It was erected by the Philadel
phia Company, but the directors thought it
cost too much money. It is nine stories in
height, with two 'basements, fronts about
150 feet on Penn avenue and runs back on
Ninth street to Spring alley. There are
three electric elevators in the bnilding, run
ning continually all day.
The floors are all tiled and the lower
parts of the walls are marble. The two en
trances to the structure are composed en
tirely of marble. In the large offices, glass
partitions, set in highly polished brass
posts, give privacy to the occupants. The
fixtures in the building are also very costly.
When the Westinghouse Air Brake Com
pany's new works are erected in Wilmerd
ing, the company will move their offices
from Robinson btreet, Allegheny, to the
new building on Penn avenue. They will
then sell their old building or use it for
other purposes. The air brake company is
almost exclusively owned by Mr. George
Westinghouse, and he purchased the new
building as an investment Some time ago
the Philadelphia Company had considerable
trouble with one corner of the building,
which began to sink. Building Inspector
Martin Frank looked at it several times and
ordered the structure to be strengthened.
STRENGTHENED SUCCESSFULLY.
This was done by putting in new iron
beams and girders, and the building is now
as sound as any in the city. Mr. Peebles
was the architect who designed the plans for
the structure.
In addition to the Philadelphia Company
the following corporations occupy offices in
the building: The Westinghouse Electric
Company, the Allegheny County Light
Company, the Keystone Construction Com
pany, the Fuel Gas and Engineering Com
pany, the Union Switch and Signal Com
pany, the Standard Underground Cable
Company, and the Standard Car Heating
and Ventilating Company. All of them
were westinghouse interests, xne .Penn
Club will occupy the ninth floor of the
building when it is organized.
By tbe sale the Philadelphia Company
will be enabled to reduce its debt 600,000.
Vatoable Hint
To those who reauire a stimulant: Bnr the
purest and the oldest and avoid the cheapest,
lor tbe latter will indeed be the most ex
pensive in the end. If you give it a thought
you will agree with me. The tax to the
Government and the aging ot whiskies and
other liquors naturally changes the price of
first cost, yet I have on hand, and will sell
as cheap as the cheapest, all kinds. But be
advised by me to buy Silver Age at SI 50
per bottle. Six-year-old Finch, Gibson,
Overholt and Guckenheimer at SI each or
six quarts for $5. I have the following old
rye whiskies now in stock and for sale:
1869-1873 Overholt, 1873-1875 Gibson, 1879
Guckenheimer and Finch. These goods are
scarce and valuable. Secure them while
you can. Brandies, gins, Jamaica and
New England rums, cordials of all flavors,
wines both sparkling and still, and all prin
cipal brands, ran be had at my place. Also
a lull line of malt liquors. Quick deliveries
and neat packing are two of my established

The Funeral and Interment nt Canonsburg
Yesterday.
The body of W. N. Eiddle reached Pitts
burg yesterday morning, and was met at the
depot by the following gentlemen: General
Pearson, Captain Fullwood, George S.
Haughton and Undertaker Williston, of
Allegheny.
Ai the undertaker removed the lid of the
box and slid back the coffin slide the face of
William N. Biddle appeared as natural as
in life. He appeared as if asleep. The color
was good; the tace had no deathlike pallor,
nor were the cheeks sunken. The few old
friends of the dead man and the score of
railroad men passed around the coffin silent
ly, taking a last look at the departed.
At 9:35 the remains were placed upon the
P., C. & St L. B. B. and taken to Canons
burg, where services were held in the Pres
byterian Church, the interment being in
the cemetery near the town, and there the
dead financier will await the grand bal

WHAT I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS
I Can Get Best at Hamilton's.
Is that so? Yes. I can get there an ele
gant, warranted, well-known, reliable pi
ano at $230, in payments, or $210 cash,
which he will cheerfully place alongside
so-called $350 club pianos and some other
new-fangled, unpronouncable pianos dis
covered only recently. Also another and
better grade for $250 on time, and $230 cash,
which, if set alongside above referred to(New
Idea) pianos, any purchaser would willingly
pay $50 advance over MewsIdea machine.
Also can purchase a Decker Bros, or Knabe
piano at Hamilton's, which cannot be pur
chased anywhere else. Also ihe great
Fischer pianos, of which there is now over
80,000 in use, President Harrison has re
cently purchased one for the White House
fprivate use). All the attempts of rival
dealers to cry down these brilliant and dura
ble artistic pianos have only served to call
forth favorable surprise and friendship,
which usually ripens into purchases. Also
I can get the great Estey cottage organs at
Hamilton's. What other dealer in this
city but would quickly throw overboard
every other agency if he could only secure
the Estey? But no, you can only get the
Estey at Hamilton's; also the magnificent
mirrored Story & Clark, and also Clough &
Warren organs alone at Hamilton's, prices
running from $40 to $200 and over; pay
ments $5 and $10 per monlb. Now, why
should I go anywhere else than to Hamil
ton's? I am sure of the best grades and
quality of goods; sure of the lowest prices,
lor who does not know that Hamilton leads,
the trade and has for many, many yearsr
Everybody knows it All who see his
stock, his facilities,and then the actual
trade done here need not be told why he can
and does sell better goods for less money
than any of his competitors. Then he has
just opened up a magnificent stock of
