Inspector McCutcheon Watch
ing Chicago Cattle.
DISEASED MEAT KEPT OUT.
Dr. HcChesney Condemns Windy City
Stock as Kot Fit to Eat.
MB. JL'CDTCHEON IS SUSTAINED.
George McCutcheon, Meat and Milk In
spector, has been for some time in receipt of
congratulatory letters on his clearing the
markets of Pittsburg of diseased meat. His
Tar upon the "lump-jaw" cattle sent here
irom Chicago is regarded as the best move
in the Public Health Bureau made since
thenew charter went into existence. Some
15,000 head of cattle have been inspected
within two days, and only one case ot lump-
jaw was discovered, showing that the deter
mined stand taken by Inspector McCutcheon
last year was productive of the best results.
"With regard to the milk question, Tie has
made within three weeks 277 tests, and only
found eight that did not come up to the re
quirements of the lactometer and the pub
lic This he accounts for by the stand he
tcok against skimmed milk and watered
cow juice about a year ago, when he brought
uit against some of the leading dairymen of
the county. Inspector McCutcheon still says
that just as good milk can be
obtained in the city from cows
which are stall-fed as from the so-called
creamery farms, the owners of which are
too anxious to churn their cream into golden
butter. The cows which get exercise and
are sent out during the grazing season lor
fresh fodder gives much better milk, he
says, for infants or invalids, than the so
called country cows, whose product is agi
tated by long railroad trips and made unfit
to administer to weak stomachs.
KEPT HIM POSTED.
Inspector McCutcheon, who started the
first fight against the lump-jawed cattle and
the diseased meat generally shipped from
Chicago to other cities, disguised in tin
overcoats as corned beef, or in sealskin
wrappers as sausages of every class, has been
kept posted pretty thoroughly by the Chi
cago people on the status of the cattle trade
in the city that wants the World's Pair.
The Inspector shows the state of affairs as at
present existing in Chicago, and the debates
that occur in the city at the foot of Lake
Michigan, on the very evil which was over
thrown by his fight against lump-Jawed
cattle for food, although opposed by home
butchers who used the Chicago dressed meat,
and by the capital of the producers of the
dressed meat.
Some extracts are given from a letter ad
dressed by H. C. McChesney, of the Illi
nois State Board of Live Stock Commission
ers, to Dr. Wickersham, Health Commis
sioner of Chicago, and consequently all
Cook county, which will give an idea of
how the diseased meat question still rankles
after Pittsburg stirred it up:
Doctor, yen will excuse me If 1 comment just
a little bit on portions ot your interview pub
lished in the press of December 31 regarding
diseased meat put on or attempted to be placed
lor sale on the market by tbe State Board of
Live Stock Commissioners; also upon tbe man
ner In which yon and the inspectors tinder your
charge bare discharged tbe responsible dnties
of your office, but more particularly your trusty
chief. Matt Lamb. Your declaration that none
nut healthy meat should be sold for consump
tion, even if you have to call on the police
force, shows the fact that yon feel as you ought
to for tbe safety of tbe public, and tbe warmth
with which you express yourself, eliminatinc
the theatrical part, tbe sawing of the air with
your arms and pounding your right fist into the
palm of your left hand carries conviction to the
minds of all that no slaughterer will deal In
other than healthy cattle.
LAMB IN CHABGE.
You say that upon receipt ot tbe first rumor
that diseased cattle were being sent in you
sent Lamb to tbe yards and put him in charge.
In charge of what, doctor? You should be
more specific so people will understand you.
You say that half a dozen attempts hare been
made to remove him; and immediately after
the failure of such attempts lumpy-jawed cat
tle were received there. Received whereT doc
tor. The cattle you complain of were un
loaded at the slaughter house on Sunday morn
ings and were immediately slaughtered.
Where was your trusty man, Matt Lamb; He
knows that many cattle are slaughtered on the
Sabbath. "Why did be neglect his duty? Doc
tor, it was because of the failure of tbe health
department of the city of Chicago to properly
discharge its duty that the State Board ofOjivo
Stock Commissioners was forced to order the
Stte veterinarian and his assistants to visit all
distillery cattle sheds in tbe State and place in
quarantine all cattle affected with aennomy
kosis. I believe you to be a thoronhlv honest man,
desirous of discharging your full duty to the
people, and regret exceedingly to And you
placed in this awkward position by your trusty
man Lamb. If it is true that the principal is
responsible for tbe acts of bis agents X find you
will bare to hare tbe carcasses of 92 cattle, af
fected with one of the most dangerous bovine
diseases communicable to mankind, placed on
tbe market to be sold for human food. That a
man having 16jears' experience in the inspec
tion of cattle at slaughter houses should out of
109 diseased cattle pass 92 as healthy can only
be accounted for on the ground that he is a
scoundrel or a fool.
A BOAST OX LAMB.
Months since, forgood and sufficient reasons,
the State Board ordered the stock yards com
pany to pass no lumpy-jawed cattle out of the
yards on the certificate of Matt Lamb, and re
cent acts make it necessary to include in the
order all employes of the health department
stationed at tbe stock yards. During the many
years your trusty man, .Matt Lamb, has served
as Health Inspector at the slaughtering estab
lishments In this city, thousands of cattle
affected with that dread disease hare been
driven from the stock yards, slaughtered, and
their carcasses sold on the market for human
xooa. neither you, tne public, nor I will ever
know bow many people found untimely graves
by eating that diseased meat, but we can know
how many carcasses were condemned by an ex
amination of Lamb's reports, now on file in
your office, and the public has a right to de
mand of you that information.
TJiis was the state of affairs discovered by
Inspector McCutcheon when he visited the
Chicago stock yards, and which is to-day as
bad as it was then, with the exception that
no shipments are made to Pittsburg of dis
eased meat. The Inspector says that when
doctors differ, no'coinmon, ordinary cowboy
ought to interfere, especially as they prove
him to be in the right, and to keep Pitts
burg markets clear of diseased food.
Inspector Lamb referred to above, is the
citizen who came on to Pittsburg at the
time Inspector McCntcheon made his fam
ous fight against Chicago dressed meat. At
that time he declared no lump-jawed cattle
were shipped Irom that city.

A VIRGINIA MILL.
Flttsbnrsers Preparing to Operate a Large
Plate In the Old Dominion.
Mr. Joseph D. Weeks is interested in a
large iron and steel plant which is being
prepared for operation in western "Virginia.
It was expected that the plant would be
started this week. Mr. Weeks said yester
day that delay had been caused by the
building of the boilers, and that the mill
would not begin operations until about the
middle of February.
The mill is located at Iron Gate, not far
from Clifton Forge, at the base of the Alle
gheny Mountains. It covers a plot of
ground 400 by 130 feet, there being, in ad
dition, two boiler houses and an open
hearth house. The mill will use pig iron
from the "Virginia mountains, getting it pig
from five lurnaces in the immediate neigh
borhood. It will manufacture merchant
iron and steel, steel plate, cotton hoop iron
and other iron and steel commodities.
About 600 men will be employed.
SON-PARTISAN WORKERS.
Allegheny County Representatives Depart
for tbo Conference at Philadelphia.
Mrs. Joseph D. Weeks, Mrs. Ellen M.
Watson and Mrs. H. C. Campbell departed
last evening on the fast line for Philadel
phia. They have gone to represent Alle
gheny connty at the State conference of the
non-partisan branch of tbe Woman's Chris
tian Temperance Union, which will take
place in Philadelphia to-morrow and Friday.
The idea of the conference is to form a State
organization upon the original basis of the
W. C. T. TJ., which shall have nothing
whatever to do with the Prohibition party.
Seventeen counties have accredited delegates
to the conference. Thewifeof Judge Harry
White, of Indiana county, will probably be
elected Chairman for the State.
THOSE BANK OFFICERS.
A Report Tlmt They Hare Been Appointed
Couldn't be Verified.
There is a report out in Lawrenceville
that the officers of the new bank had been
chosen. The report could not be verified
because the reported President, Colonel
Morgan, was not at home. Considerable
dissatisfaction is rite in the neighborhood
about the apparent inactivity of the movers
in the new concern. The want of an insti
tution for money purposes is sadly needed.
So far away are banks irom the Fifteenth
and Sixteenth wards that people are forced
to keep their money at home. This they
don't relish, their money not being so secure
or remunerative as it would be if it was in a
bank.
MISCHIEVOUS B0IS.

glasshouse, Twenty-eighth street made an
information before Alderman Warner,
charging E. Woods, J. Klllgollen, J.
Tynery, J. Shaw and William Grimes with
malicious mischief. The defendants are
boys, 1G years of age, and work at Hamil
ton's glasshouse. Considerable rivalry
exists between the boys ot the two glass
houses. Tne defendants vented their dis
pleasure on the McCully boys by throwing
stones at them through the glasshouse
windows.
Allegheny Fands Fall.
The appropriations for the expense of the
Health, Police and Street Departments of
Allegheny, for the year ending with Feb
ruary, have fallen short, and employes of

ing of the Finance Committee will be held

STAYTON FOE MATOfi.
The Allegheny Democrat Was Nomi
nated Without Opposition.
AN ENTHUSIASTIC CONTENTION.
The Party is Pledged to Give Him Its Un
divided Support.
liAMES OP REPUBLICAN C0KTESTAKTS
Isaac E. Stayton, Common Councilman
of the Eleventh ward, Allegheny, was
nominated last evening for Mayor, The
nomination was made unanimous by accla
mation, there being not one dissenting voice
in the convention. He has started his ball
rolling early in the campaign, and his
friends say he will make things lively for
the Bepublican candidate, who has not yet
been nominated.
The convention of the Allegheny City
Democratic Committee was held in the
Council chamber. There was a large turn
out, and at every mention of the name
Stayton there was a wild outburst of en
thusiasm. John Huckenstein, the old Dem
ocratic sidewheeler and Chairman of the
City Committee, occupied the chair, and
George E.'Sbepard was Secretary. Alter
the call of the Toll and the reception of
credentials, the convention got down to act
ual business. Hugh Boney nominated
Mr. Stayton in a neat little speech, and as
there was no opposition, he was nominated
by acclamation. Some one in the room pro
posed a cheer, and for a few minutes the
volume oi sound that vibrated through the
building caused manv people to stop on
Federal and Ohio streets and wonder
whether they were listening to wild men or
not. After the cheering had subsided Mr.
Stayton was called upon for a speech. Upon
mounting the platform he addressed the
convention as follows:
APPKECIATED THE HONOR.
"Language is inadequate to express the
high appreciation I have of the honor done
me naming me as the standard bearer of
the Democratic party in the Mayoralty con
test It is said that it is worthy of any
citizen to have an ambition to become Mayor
of such a prosperous city as Allegheny. I
trust you will not snspect me oi being too
ambitious in the matter. I do not believe
that I sought to thrust myself on yon, but
rather had a desire to feel tbe sentiment of
the people before taking the position I have
now assumed. I feel proud of the honor,
and return many thanks. I will consider
myself under obligations to conduct an
honest and straightforward canvass for the
election of the ticket which you have
cbosen. Every good citizen who has a desire
for good and honest municipal government
will be called upon to support that ticket I
will exert every legitimate effort to win and
will do everything in my power for the suc
cess of your nominees.
"The contest cannot be won by a strict
party vote. We must go outside and per
suade the good citizens to vote the ticket
To do this we will pledge them, good gov
ernment for the people, and not for an in
dividual. I do not want to take up your
time now discussing the matter, but will do
eo at a future date. Let me beg of you, one
and all, to interest every voter in the city.
In the parlance ot warfare, see that every
gun along the line is manned. When the
silent battle of the ballot is over, and if it is
found that the Democratic ticket is the one
chosen by the people, I promise to enter
upon the duties witn the sincere intention
of contributing to the, safety and the pros
perity of the city."
At the conclusion of the speech there was
another outburst of applause.
COMPLIMENTABr RESOLUTIONS.
The following resolution was offered by
Mr. John L. Sullivan, of Woods' Kun,,and
adopted:
Resolved, That we earnestly recommend the
support of Mr. Isaac R. Stayton, the candidate
this day nominated for Mayor, to the Demo
cratic aud Independent voters of the city of
.Ajiegneny.
We do so on tbe ground that his Ion;; con
nection with tbe Legislative branch of the city
Qovcmment has made him thoroughly famil
iar with all its departments, while his high
character as an upright and energetic business
man will insure a careful and impartial dis
charge of tbe duties of tbe important office for
which be has been named. His career in posi
tions of such trust is in keepingwlth his honor
able record as a gallant soldier under McClel
Ian, Grant and Sheridan.
The chairman was authorized to appoint a
campaign committee to assist himself and
the City Committee in conducting the cam
paign. A resolution was adopted to appoint a
Campaign Committee, consisting of one
man from each ward to work in conjunction
with the City Committee to stir up the
voters to work for the success of the ticket.
There are four candidates in the field for
the Bepublican nomination. They are
James G. Wyman, William Bader, W. A.
Cruikshank and James Semple.

Oliver & Eoberts Wire Company to know
that they are now out of debt They will
pay on February 1 the last of their indebt
edness with interest The story of the
firms' failure is already known, and their
rapid recovery speaks well for their integrity,
and is a compliment to theirbnsiness ability.
Yesterday the firm sent out the following
letter to their creditors, which is gratifying
in the extreme:
Pittsburg, January 14, 189a
Five years ago to-day, we were compelled to
inform our creditors that we were unable to
meet our obligations as they matured, and to
ask tbem for an extension. We then promised
that If time were given, and tbe manage
ment of our property and business left in our
own hands, we would pay one hundred cents
f orevery dollar we owed, with 8 per cent inter
est. We are now ready to fulfill that promise,
and bee to advise you that tbe notes for the last
installment of our extension indebtedness,
principal and interest, will be paid when due
on the first day of February next.
We think this a fitting time for us to express
our appreciation of the liberal treatment we
received at the hands of those to whom we
were indebted, and tbe many expressions of
confidence tendored us in the time of our
trouble. We are as proud of having justified
tbe expections of our friends, as we are of tho
redemption of our promises and the preserva
tion of our good name.

HAD CRObSED THE CENTURY USE.
Mrs. Harv Pnncoost Dies Snrronnded by
Five Generations of Descendants.
At the ripe age of 101 years and 13 days,
Mrs. Mary Pancoast, of Elizabeth, died last
Saturday. She aws born in New Jersey in
1789, and was married when 16 years oi age.
Her husband fought in the War of 1812.
The couple soon after the war migrated to
Elizabeth, in this county. Mr. Pancoast
died in 1842, his wife remaining a widow
until her death.
She was the mother of 9 children, grand
mother of 78, great-grandmother of 132 chil
dren and great-great-grandmother of 41 chil
dren. Although she could look back upon five
generations, she was not enfeebled by old
age, but did much of the family housework.
She was passionately fond of floiccrs, and
only last summer she appeared in the gar
den and made flower-beds.
The funeral took place on Monday last,
and was largely attended. Mrs. Pancoast
was widely known and greatly esteemed.
APPEOPEIATIOJfS EXHAUSTED,
Bat Treasurer Dennlston lias a Plan to
Prevent Delay.
Major J. F. Denniston, City Treasurer,
yesterday concluded an arrangement with
the banks which are depositaries of the
municipal funds by which he will be able to
provide the necessary running expenses
until March, when the treasury will be
repleted. At present, he says, the appropria
tions are all nearly exhausted, except the
sinking fund, and the cost of running the
city business between now and March will
be about 250,000, which will be needed for
salaries, etc.
The method agreed upon between the
Treasurer and the banks is for him to draw
by personal check as the money is required,
retain the warrants as they are handed in,
and instead ot cancelling them, deposit them
in the various banks as vouchers, taking up
the check previously made. This idea is to
secure the convenience of city employes and
prevent their having to wait over two
months for their pay.
K0 0PFEE MADE.
Wilklnsbnrg Children Stay Use the Parochial
School.
The rumor that Father A. A. Lambing
had tendered the Wilkinsburg School Com
mittee the use of the parochial school build
ing, was denied by him yesterday afternoon.
He said he had no authority to offer the use
of the church property, but he had no doubt
that it would be tendered after a consulta
tion with Bishop Phelan.
The School Commissioners are making a
decided effort to get suitable rooms in which
the little ones mav continue their studies
until the new building, which will be com
menced at once, is completed. The 17. B.
Church. Methodist, Presbvterian and St.
Stephen's Mission Churches will in all prob
ability welcome the pupils into their sanc
tuaries, and tbe Parochial building will
make two good schoolrooms.

DISAGREEING JDEIES.
Mr. Ferguson Bays lie Never Encountered
So Many as In 1SS9.
J. S. Ferguson, Esq., states that in all
his previous practice he never encountered
so many disagreeing juries as during the
past year.
Mr. Ferguson spoke as thongh he thought
the times were out of joint, but some people
think it an evidence of jury reform, possi
bly at least, they think it may be. possible
that a juror who would refuse to agree to an
unjust verdict in order to make a train or
get his dinner on time is an improvement on
some who have done duty in the past five
years.
YESTERDAY'S VERDICTS.

WOMEN AS YQTERS.
Mrs. Laura N. Johns Defends Their
. Eight to Cast the Ballot.
POLITICS ELEVATED AND PURER.
Some
Facts About the Ladies as Office
Holders in the West.
IHEI MAKE GOOD JUDGES AUD 1IAT0ES
When Mrs. Laura N. Johns, of Kansas,
stepped upon the rostrum of the lecture
room connected with the Sandusky Street
(Allegheny) Baptist Church, she faced an
audience almost wholly composed of her
sex. There were some men there. They
were utilized to furnish the hats and rush
the collection.
Mrs. Johns is a bright little woman in
whose raven black hair there are some sil
very threads. She is a rapid and pleasing
talker, nnd filled her subject with so much
enthusiasm that at the close of her address
she had enlisted everyone of the ladies
under the banner of woman suffrage.
Mrs. Johns in her lecture traced the
woman suffrage movement from the time
when Plato announced to the world his be
lief in the equality or the sexes down to the
present day. Speaking of the movement
in the West she said that it was owing to
the fact that the women of Washington
Territory voted so strongly in favor of
moral men that the right of suffrage was
taken from them. -
BAD PEOPLE CAME IN.
This right had been granted to them by
statute. When the territory began to fill
up with foreigners, native blacklegs,
gamblers and others of that elk, this statute
Became unpopular to tne vicious element.
In a Congressional election tbe Kepnblican
party placed before the people a candidate
whose moral character was not of the high
est. Voorhees, a sou of the Tall Sycamore
of the Wabash, was placed in nomination
by the Democrats. The women unanimously
supported him and he was elected. A local
option law came up shortly thereafter,
fathered by the Republicans and opposed by
the Democrats. The women supported this
law. When Statehood was broached the
women were without a partv, and the statute
giving them the right of suffrage was stricken
from the Constitution.
In Wyoming the women have gone to the
polls with their little ballots for 20 years.
The statute is so fixed in the Constitution of
tbe Territory that women are assured that
when Wyoming is admitted to the sister
hood of States their rights will not be taken
from them. In Kansas the result of female
suffrage has been most successful. In five
cities women have been elected to the office
of Mavoress. Over 200 women are members
of various School Boards, and in several
cities the Conncils are wholly composed of
women.
A WOMAK AS JUDGE.
In one town a woman officiates as a police
judge. The women of Kansas are not in
favor of a city government composed
wholly of women. They prefer that it
should be equal. The men of Kansas are
now much more in favor of the movement
than they were before the right of franchise
was given to the other sex.
One result of the movement in Kansas
and other States where women have the
glorious privilege of marching to the polls
is that it has elevated their minds.
Women, instead of disenssing Mrs. Thing
umbob's last dress, which was so loud that
it kept her husband awake o' nights, now
talk of silver coinage, the probabilities of
Graver Cleveland's candidacy in '92. the
impropriety of President Harrison's shoot
ing hogs on a duck hunting expedition, and
other topics calculated to place them on a
level with their husbands.
The women at the polling places are treat
ed with the greatest respect by the male
voters, and they are well satisfied with the
result of the experiment.
In conclusion Mrs. Johns stated her firm,
belief that the cause she represented would'
go on until every womanly woman under
the flag would be armed with the ballot.
BRANCHING OUT.
The Allegheny Valley Will Balld a New
Bridge Constructing Works at Terona
Tbe Sudden Death of Superintendent
Levrls Deeply Regretted.
The Allegheny Valley Railroad Com
pany is going to build a fine bridge con
structing shop at Verona. The land adjoin
ing their shops has been, purchased, and
upon this ground a large shop will be
erected. It will be fitted out with all
kinds of improved machinery lor construct
ing bridges. For some time' past the Valley
had their bridge works located in Oil City,
but they found it inconvenient to have the
shops separated, so they decided to build a
commodious building at Verona. When the
shop is built and fitted up it will be the
mest complete of its kind in the country.
Bridge constructing on the Valley road
has become quite a feature in the business of
the road. Between Pittsburg and Oil City
the railroad people are going to strengthen
the bridges, and this department will be
watched very closely.
A most distressing circumstance happened
yesterday in connectien with the transfer of
the bridge shop from Oil City to Verona.
Mr. E. Lewis, who was lately appointed to
the position of Superintendent of the bridge
constructing works, came to Verona from
Oil City to lay out the plans for the new
shops. While standing on the banK of an
engine pit he suddenly fell backward into
the pit. The accident was not thought to be
serious. Mr. Lewis was picked up and he
walked to the cars to return home. When
he was on his way home he gave a sudden
gasp and expired.
Snperintendent Lewis was universally
respected on the road. He was zealous,
earnest, affable and was endowed with fine
mechanical abilities. His early demise is
deeply regretted by the officers and men.
WILLING TO COME IN.
Reserve Toimshlp Peoplo Anxious to Cast

Tired of mud and city discomforts with
out attendant benefits, a strip of Reserve
township, bordering on the Allegheny City
line, wants to get in, and it appears that
"Barkis is willln'," as a considerable num
ber of our Northside neighbors want their
population swelled to 100,000 so as to be

Council Amerlicfa, of the Seventh ward,
will add COO to Allegheny's population, and
as tbe section wanting in is compact it will
not cost much to extend water, police and

A FINE EXHIBITION
Given by the Microscopical Society A Union
of Scientific Organization Not Favored,
bnt an Academy Is Some Cariosities.
The meeting of the Iron City Microscop
ical Society in the ladies' parlor of the Pitts
burg Library, last night, was more than usu
ally interesting, although the entire pro
gramme was not given, Dn T. L. Hazzard's
paper on "The Blood" not being forthcom
ing. There was a fine microscopical display
of blood corpuscles, human and reptilian,
however, so that the blood exhibit was not a
a failure even in Dr. Hazzard's absence,
and in addition Mr. C. C. Mellor read a
sketch of the life of Leeuwenhock,
a blooded gentleman of the seventeenth cen
tury, who not only distinguished himself by
becoming one of the most eminent scientists
this world has ever produced, but who
worked his way to the summit of fame with
out much preliminary education to speak
of, and by the aid of microscopes that wonld
appear very crnde to-day. Mr. Leeuwen
hock learned some things about blood that
Harvey didn't.
Mr. W. J. Prentice exhibited an extens
ive array of specimens of marine inverte
brate animals collected by him at Wood's
Holl, Mass., last summer. Laying aside
technical nomenclature, the collection con
sisted of the thorn-backed ray of the skate
family; radiata, or star fish, or more com
monly known as the five-fingered Jack; sea
urchins, periwinkle shells, inhabited by
the hermit crab; se.i cucumbers,
jaws and tail of tbe horned shark, butter-
nsh, golden claralata, sponges, sauids and
their eggs, lobster eggs, some of them par
tially hatched; sea spiders, creatures ap
parently all legs; nymphonida, egg purses
of the ray, stratified ' sands and
clays of Gay Head, deposited
at an angle of 45 degrees and
eggs of the conch gotten from tbe Elizabeth
Islands, off the coast of Massachusetts.
Mr. Prentice carries with him pleasant
memories of the old decayed seaport towns
of Massachusetts, which have a flavor of the
seventeenth century. The Elizabeth Islands,
which are known there more familiarly by
their own names, are favorite haunts of sea
gulls, whose eggs are gathered by the ton
and eaten. One of the islands is still in
habited by Indians, and they haul travelers
on ox carts.
Iu the exhibit of blood corpuscles was one
by Herbert Walker, of the menoponia
Allegheniensis, or hell-bender, as fishermen
call it, a sort of lizard, or diminutive alli
gator. Mr. C. G. Milnor had several
slides in exhibit of human blood corpuscles,
Mr. C. C. Mellor, petrified coral, and Mr. J.
H. McKoberts exhibited human flesh that
had fallen a victim to the trichina;. Though
the specimens have somewhat shrivelled by
the alcohol in which they were preserved
the utterly dep-aved and ferocious charac-
ter of the parasite could easily be gathered
from its appearance even when in liquor."
Mr. C. C. Meller, from the Committee on
Federation, reported a plan of union and of
the various scientific societies of the city,
and it was that a federation was not practi
cable, but that an. academy of art and
sciences had been decided upon, a charter
prepared and now awaiting signatures. The
object was to secure a suitable building as a
home for all the societies at a cost that would
not be oppressive, where zoological,
geological and other collections that had
been offered could be stored with safety, a
lecture room provided, library, curiosities,
etc. Each society is to preserve its auton
omy. Mr. C. G. Milnor advocated the adoption
of the report, stating that he wa3 ashamed
to leel that a city ot tne size and wealth of
Pittsburg was not better provided in this
respect, especially ashamed since what he
had seen in Buffalo. The report was in
dorsed. HIS WILL PE0BATED.
Hair His Rovcronce. Bishop Tnlgg, Be

In New York yesterday the will of Bishop

EEASOSS FOE EESIGN1NQ.
Father Larablag Shakes Up the Historical
Society.
Father A. A. Lambing, of Wilklnsbnrg,
was approached yesterday afternoon by a
Dispatch reporter regarding his recent
resignation as Secretary of the Western
Pennsylvania Historical Society. In reply
to a question as to whether or not he had
tendered his resignation, he said:
"Most assuredly I have, bnt they have not
taken any official notice of it yet, only at
the last meeting X believe ther passed a res
olution of regret or something of that
kind."
As to why he resignedthe reverend father
said he was weary trying to awaken and
keep up a society that had no life and no
ambition. The Historical Society, he said,
was a second edition of tbe Old Residents'
Association that was formed in 79, and
could be a representative society of its kind
in the United States if the members would
only take some interest in the preparation of
papers to be read and Inviting new members
to p'oin the organization. Jfather Lambing
said he had endeavured by every possible
manner to put life into tbe society, but he
found it an impossibility. The gentlemen
who belong to it are too bnsy with business
to be interested to any great extent in the
previous history of the State, too
much occupied with the present, to care lor
tbe past The last meeting of the club was
called by Mr. John C. Porter, who is acting
as Secretary. Father Lambing said be had
prepared a great many papers for the socie
ty, over which he would spend time and
thought, and would go to the meeting to
find only a handml of gentlemen to listen
to the reading of the paper, which showed a
lack of appreciation on the part of the mem
bers of the society.
The gentleman said he was ready to re
sume labors in the society whenever it
showed signs of resurrection, and would oc
casionally send them a paper while it re
mained in its lethargic condition.
COMING 0TEB TO THE STEIKEES.
Some of tbe Light Company's Hen Say
They Did Not Knorr the Facts.
Six employes of the Allegheny County
Light Company, who have been filling the
places of the strikers, were present at a
meeting oi the Strike Committee last even
ing. They were from Cleveland and other
points, and explained that the stories of the
strike related to them by the company's
officials and by the strikers were so much at
variance that they desired to make an ex
planation of how they had come to the city.
They said that they had been on strike in
Cleveland and had come on here on the rep
resentations of a Mr. Miller, an official of
the company, that there was no serious diffi
culty on hand. Arriving here, they had
put up at the American House, where they
were waited upon by a man who said that
he was from the union, who told them that
tbe diihcultv between the company and the
men bad nothing to do with any trade or
ganizations. Satisfied on this score, for
they themselves were members of a Western
Electrical Union, they turned into wsrk
next morning.
Tbe committee explained the true cause
and standing of the difficulty, and the visit
ors expressed their intention of appearing
at the full meeting of the union on next
Friday night As a result of statements
distributed among the carbon setters and
linemen, outlining the exact condition of
the affair, it is said that a number of the
men now at work will be present at the Fri
day meeting.
