1 R ElWmm fEx-Pinkerton Man's Star .Engage ment as a Carbon Worker. Ki K, MILLMAN AHD WHAT HE DID. How tie Carton Strikers Shadowed a Philadelphia Spotter. IJOHN E. O'SHEA C0HF1EMS THE STOET James K. Millman packed up his crip- Back in rather a sadden manner on Christ mas Eve, and took his departure from this city for parts unknown, bat presumably for Philadelphia, There is nothing very remarkable in an ordinary, everyday citi zen '.taking this- everyday trip, but Jlr. HUIman is something more than an ordi nar everyday citizen; he is an ex-police- man, a .tunsienon uetecuve, miu jur iuc uu fiVe'br .six weeks has been in the employ ment of the Allegheny County Light Com- ,pany. JaJutt why an ex-policeman and Pinkerton -'detective should find it necessary to travel ''fall the way from Philadelphia to this city to -'leriter the employment of the Allegheny " iConnty Light Company as a sort of handy 4 man," can only be caused by his subsequent actions and their result ' ..The.facts in connection with this story - were not gleaned all at once and without considerable crossquestioning of the men ii with whom Millman was brought in contact. ft -A frj. AN ALL ABOUND MAN. fit VAt first it could not be ascertained in what s 'Mrmnitv Millman was emriloved bv the company, ne was neither a caroon sewer, a .lineman, an engineer, machinist. -or belong- S Sjing1 any skilled branch of the trade, and all that could be ascertained relative to his "-work was that he was put to doing easv jobs iaround the shops, within which ne always fremained. His fellow workmen did not at Ifirst pay any particular attention to him. rijhey regarded him as one of themselves. ' rf, He took an interest in the afikire of the new- f ly formed union, of which he soon became a 7 .....,.&.. 4 ,, m-att,t ,n ntepnccTtiir rna grrievances which, about this time, began to "engage the attention of the company's eni iployes. Soon, however, some suspicion larose as to his genuinness.. It was noticed ithat when be was engaged in speaking to lany of his fellow workmen, and others ap Iproached, he immediately changed the con Ivereation; but still thore was nothing to in Edicate that he was other than an ordinary working man. QUIETLY ENSCONCING HIMSELF. On arriving in the city he had engaged a room in a boarding house on Seventh street, near Penn avenus, and was particular in having it all to himself. His mail was pretty extensive, and he -received at least $f one letter each day. Tn this room he wa&in s, "the habit of receiving visitors, generally 1 .- alter dark, and sometimes at a late hour, Jfcjand it was ascertained that some of them ,belonged to a much higher scale in social life than that to which Millman seemed to belong. He was a reglar boarder, paid f''ihis bills strictiv in advance, and never . sought either relaxation or amusement. a. Xt was only last week that some indica Wtions as to Mr. Jlillman's real character .Jfy leaked out He was one of the leaders in -.the movement among the carbon setters for y,,ltbe reinstatement of the discharged men, Vand it was largely on his counsel that the 25 -djmen now on strike decided to take that step. e iIh the secret meetings, which were held to '.'consider this matter, be took such an active ipart and was so extreme in his counsels that "the suspicions of one of the men, more " shrewd than bis fellows, was aroused, and 1 ."inquiries into his antecedents were set on .foot. r A DETINUE ANSWER CAME. rAmong the answers received to inquiries was a letter from a G. A. E. Post in Phila delphia, which stated that James K. Mill man, lor that was his real name, was at present a private detective and had been a . policeman under tbe regime of tlie last (fcjifa-orjof .PinaJeTphia. 'This was safficient indication ot Jllllman's Teal occupation, andiromtheday of the receipt 6f thePhil- -adelpTua letter he was never out of the sight of some of tbe Electrical unionists. To test his object "iia joining the union a trap was r laid Jor him At the meeting of the union at which the committee to act with the gen eral committee to confer with the- Alleghenv Light Company regarding the strike, Mill tnari. vervmnch.to his disgust, was chosen as one ot the three members. On the davs , following he was shadowed everywhere he went. On Sunday night he locked himself - vin his room and prepared for flight, as he "Hr about believed the situation was getting r rather too warm to be pleasant. But he '"' could not get away from his close friends, "", who chaffed him on his eagerness to get '? home for the holidays, bat they wonld not i -let him out of their sight. ME. MTLLSIAN WAS UNWELL. if On Monday last, the day set for the con ' ference between the company and the coin s' mittee, Mr. Millman complained about feel - ?-ing very unwell and began to excuse bim- Bell from attending the meeting. But to ' rthia Ihe other members would not agree; .sJthev were anticipating a very dramatic ' fscene when the company was confronted " with tbe proofs of employing a Pinkerton de- ,5 ,' tective to play the spy on the legitimate workers. As it happened, the conference of f-y Monday took a turn which was not antici- s pated, and which rendered it unnecessary to allude to the carious methods employed in a case. As a result of the meeting, as already announced it was agreed that a contract embodying certain conditions should be drawn up and submitted to the company at aifurtner meeting yesterday. Mr. Millman was a very unhappy man during the whole iof the conference. He knew that his whilom -comrades were aware of his real character .-f and he momentarily expected an explosion. NO EXPLOSION TOOK PLACE, But it did not come for reasons which it is '. unnecessary to particularize. -a On the day succeeding the conference, namely, Christmas Eve, Mr. Millman re ceived a letter at his boarding house, and which he was at especial pains to read aloud ior the delectation of those within hearing. Jit conveyed an intimation to him to get out jit once, or else take the consequences. It "vas a regularly mailed city letter, and it muy have emanated from an over zealous striker, or been written to Mr. Millman by 'himself. Anyhow, he thought he had had ejiough of Pittsburg, for he left the same - evening, though having paid up his board v . ''to to-iay. " So much had been learned from conversa tions with several people, and Chairman of r 'the Conference Committee, John E. O'Shea, ' sMrarcalled upon for an explanation of the -'BEtory. He was very reluctant to say any ' 'thing about it, especially as the difficulty "'between the strikers and the company ,seemed to have a pleasant termination, but, ins'ifhad become known, he at length cor- iroboratea the story as it appears above. "-3T MB. O'SHEA'S CONFIRMATION. at isn't the first'time." said he. "that Pinkerton men have been introduced into organizations to create distension, and to try to' break them up. I am sorry the story has got but, as I would have wished to have set tled the matter quietly; but if you gentlemen of the'press'Tget hold of anything like a $ jstorr yomcan'Chold it "We haven't anv filoubt.tbat "Millman was hired to spy on the re -jnen 'and break up the union that existed amone them. Back of all this there is a , .good deal more which will see daylight when ' the proper time comet The opinion among the out linemen and carbonsetters is that the 25 special officers no wi engaged in shadowing them are also Pinkerton men sworn in by the Pinkerton agent in his city as special city officers, ''and in the employ of the company. " The contract or agreement drawn up bv the joint Jabor committees was yesterday submitted ito the Allegheny County Light .Company, .no conierence was neiaregard linclit. asMr. Blaster, into whose hands it ijpaued, desired to exhibit to the higher officials of the coapany fr-thir considerar tion. " ' p' Mr. Blaster said that he would commit the result of the deliberation of his company on the document to the joint committee in writing. An effort was made to see Superintendent Blaxter, of the Allegheny Light Company, in rerard to the above Btorv. but he had gone to his home at Edgewood. Several of the working force at the Virgin alley power house were seen, but they declined to make any comments, cood, bad or Indifferent. TO SETTLE A QUESTION. Chief Brown Will Welcome a Competitive Trial of Fire Engines He Mokes a Formal Statement. Chief Brown, of the Department of Pub lio Safety, like the majority ot the other city officials, is becoming somewhat wearied with the incessant squabbles -which haye re sulted from the rivalry between fire engine manufacturers. He said yesterday that he would make a practical finish to the dis cussion by a public proof, and sent the fol lowing communication to.Major "W". 6. Mo Candless, President of the Board of Under writers : Pittsburg, December 26. 18S9. W. Q. McCandless, tsq.. President of Tire Un derwriters', Association: Dear Sib I am exceedingly anxious to have the Bureau ot Fire of the city of Pittsburg equipped and supplied with the very best ap paratus of every kind andicbaracter. And. as you are aware, there Is a great difference of opinion as to which make and manufacture of fire engines is the best for fire service, and would ba the best for the city of Pittsburg. As this Is a question ot ereat moment to the city, and especially to your Fire Underwriters' Asso ciation, I would respect! nliy asfc that a com mittee be appointed, say one man to be selected by tbe Fire Underwriters Association, one by this department to represent the city of Pitts burg and one to represent tho,Usby Manu facturing Company, or any othet company that mar aesire to enter Into a competitive contest with a view to accurately ascertaining the merits and demerits of the engines that may enter into said competitive contest. An early response to this communication will be appreciated. Very truly yours, J. O. Brown. Chief Department of Public Safety. In speaking of this letter, Mr. Brown said: "This is the first official communication that has passed between the Board of Under writers and myself concerning this matter, but as they have been giving it some con sideration' and have been quoted as having expressed a desire for better fire equipments than we have in the city now, I hope they will take advantage of this opportunity to -prove which make of fire engines is superior ina public contest. It will properly be in the hands of the Underwriters' Association to arrange for and conduct the contest, for it is not only their expressed desire to have tbe test which caused this offer of mine to be made, but they are especially interested, and it is best that they should conduct it, then there will be no opportunity to charge the friends of the Amoskeag engines with putting up any kind of a job. I desire that there shall be a fair, square test, and the test to determine the superior engine. If the Silsby or any other manufacture of machine is proven to be the best, I will assure you there will be no more Amoskeag engines purchased for Pittsburg." Begarding the selection of thx city's rep resentative on tbe Committee ot Judges Mr. Brown said he would select a man who would be acceptable to the other gentlemen on the committee. He believed that the committee should be composed of men well versed in hydrostatics and other lines of ma chinery. The city's representative should be a man who was not affiliated in any man ner either with the city government or any of the engine companies, and as far as he was concerned Mr. Brown said he would he willing to select a man from outside tbe city. -"We are anxious- to have the very best obtainable," said Mr. Brown, "and if the engines now in use ate not the best I want to know it" DO KOT BELIEYB IT. No Stock Taken In tbe Story of the Large Steel Wheel Company. Manufacturers ot this city o not take much stock in the storysent put from Mo-. JCeesport, to the effect.tnat.. John BZiott, of Kittanning, was organizing a'company With a capital of $3,000,000 to build four steel wheel plants. The plants were to be located at McBleesport, New York, Chicago and San Francisco. The headquarters of the company was to be in this city. In a talk with one of the directors of tbe Novelty Steel "Wheel Company, of Bissell station, yesterday, the gentleman said the story was all bosh. Mr. Xott, he said, bad tried to do business with tbe patentee of the Novelty Company. After considerable dickering, the patentee. Mr. A. C. Hall, of Denver, Col., droptd the matter and en gaged himself with the other concern. The latter is almost ready to begin the manufacture of the wheels. They have erected their plant and will begin turning out their product within a week or ten days. Tbe capacity of the concern will be 100 sets or 400 wheels per day. The wheels are to be used in carnage and vehicle building of all kinds. This is tbe only concern ot the kind in the country. A numbe r of com panies are said to be in process of forma tion, but none of them have erected plants yet " ANOTHER PURCHASE iTADE. The Flan of Widening Cherry AUer Still Procresalnc- Bay unto day uttereth speech and some times night uttereth knowledge respecting real estate purchases in the squares between Liberty, Grant -and Smitbneld streets and Fifth avenue. Several purchases heretofore made, but not reported, were heard of yester day. Among them was a.2U-foot lot belong ing to Mr. McEldowney, for which 95,000 was paid. It was purchased by Black & Baird, but the seller was not informed of the ultimate object, nor does he seem to care. W. C. McEldownev. Esq.. said the nriee paid was a fair one, bnt had not the option J ueen i&.ca uii lime iae property wouia nave been withdrawn from the market, as it is highly productive. It is only 60 feet deep and rented for (40 a month. Madam Eumor says, and she seems to be pretty well supported, that the Schenley leaseholds bounded by Cherry and Straw berry alleys and Grant street have been sold, supposably to tbe same party, or par ties that are buying property around there, and it is supposed the leaseholds would not be purchased unless it were understood that tbe ground itself can be bought. In discussion of the many rumors in cir culation, Hon C. F. McKenna said: "You knof there is talk of a syndicate buying Grace .Reformed Church at the corner of Grant street and "Webster avenue.1' SOME iilSLEADLNG REPORTS. The Allegheny Jr. O. U. A. M. Are Indlg. sant Over a Mistake Made. The American Mechanics of Allegheny are in a high state of indignation at the statement; made by an evening paper to the effect that the order had asked for tbe privi lege of conducting the dedicatory exercises of the Carnegie Library. A prominent Me chanic said yesterday: "We never made such a request, und the statement does us a creat injustice, and why we should have been charged with such an absurd thing is something I cannot under stand." Ihe foundation for the statement referred to possibly lies in the fact that the Alle gheny Monumental Committee had made an effort to secure the Music Hall for an enter tainment alter the building has been dedi cated.

Mair BetmtHM State .That It Wm Pro tecllea ts lira Patlenls of the West Penn Which Was the Onlr ThoBlrt Other ImproveBsenta. "Xhave only got ?350 in two checks," said Major J. F. Oenniston yesterday, "and X want $1,675 to provide the new fire escape facilities for the West Penn HospitaL I am very much disappointed inreadine the com ments of the press on the fact that a patient with a contagious disease such as diphtheria was refused admission at the hospital, espe cially just at this time, when the hospital Saturday and Sunday are so near. Mr. Mc- Creery was speaking to me to-day upon the subject, and all of us feel it very keenly that such comments should be made. "We have 'hygienic accommodations for 170 patients, and yesterday there were 224 in the hospital. Last year's report shows that 77 per cent of the patients were charity, or non productive, and even those who did pay were of the class sent by mills and rail roads, giving $5 per week which is about enough to pay ordinary board, not to speak of medicine, attendance, etc. Now the patients in the hospital, crowded as they are, must be taken care of, and to place a contagious disease in a crowded hospital wonld be an outrage. Let anyone who has a friend in our crowded wards give an opinion on the subject, and you will soon find what popular sentiment is. Such cases should be sent to the city hospital, or to such an emergency hospital as was sug gested by Chief Brown in connection with his department. Of course it seems cruel to refuse- admission to anyone, but it is the mercitul cruelty ot tbe surgeon s Knue, which cuts off a sloughing limb and saves tbe life. The hospital authorities must surely protect those who are under their charge. If anything contagious were to break out in the hospital itself, of which the germs coma be easily communicated to fresh wounds, it would be almost impossible to isolate the case properlv, and it would be simply criminal to introduce such a case in tbe present condition ot things. "There are the repairs now so much needed, the roof particularly, which is now leaking badly in many places; but badly as it is needed we will not have the new roof until we can pay for it. The prospects are not verv rosy just at present, as something like a $6,000 deficiency is staring us in tbe face, and it is for this reason more than anv other that I wish the hospital management set right before the public on the matter of which kspoke." Mr. Wm. McCreery, Chairman of the West Penn Hospital, said yesterday that it would be necessary to build another chil dren's ward in the hospital. For the last month the present children's ward did not begin to hold the infant patients the hos pital received. So crowded are they now with children that part of another large ward has to be utilized to accommodate the little ones. Ho definite plan has yet been devised' for the new ward, but tbe intention is to build a large airy room at the south end of the building. Itjvill'be necessaryto provide 20 to 25 beds in the future for the children. Mr. McCreery said that the public ought to come to their lescne, and give them a help ing hand in this work. Tbe hospital aa tborities are under heavy expenditure at present They have just completed anew wing, and are now engaged in putting an additional story on tbe main building, which will entail at least $30,000 outlay. A HEW OPEN HEARTH FURNACE. Howe. Brown & Co. Hove nn Important Addition to Their riant.
