T3 !? ' THE PITTSBUEQ- DISPATCH, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1890. HANLON HOME AGAIN, He Says He's After Two More Yery Good Men. WHAT HECKER HAS TO SAY. Good Prices Realized at the Brasfield Trotting Sale. THE SPORTING KEWS OP THE DAY Manager Hanlon returned from the East, accompanied by his bride. He is expecting to sign two first-class players. Manager Hecker is "busy arranging exhibition dates. There were some good sales at the Brasfield trotting sales. Manager Ed Hanlon, of the new local ball clnb, returned to the city yesterday, ac companied by his handsome bride. For the last week or two Mr. Hanlon has been dead to the baseball world, but his reappearance in the city means that he is ready to resume his hustling in behalf of the club of which he is in charge. During a conversation last evening Mr. Hanlon said: "I have not been much inter ested in baseball matters recently, but in coming through New York I met John "Ward. He states that the most encouraging reports from all quarters are arriving re garding the new League. I have heard noth ing definitely about Burns yet, bat 1 under stand tnat he has a contract with President Speas, of the Kansas City club. WANT TO DEAL HONESTLY. If this is so we don't want to induce him to break it. We don't want any players who have signed contracts elsewhere. I think we will secure two first-class men shortly. Oh, yes? Tbey are old League men, bat have signed with the Brotherhood. I think we will cet both of them if Barns does not come here. Mr. Hanlon continued: I don't think we will play any exhibition games before the cham pionship season opens. Tbey don't pay finan cially, and I don't think oar players will be much in need of them. Exhibition games are all right for teams that have many young players In them or that are made np of players who have not played to gether much. For instance, such teams as Brooklyn and Chicago need trips to get their playersinto playing condition. However, our team is made ud of players who almost entirely know each other very well. We will get plenty of practice, as I will have the boys play ing hard every day. That is what we need. Our grounds will soon be all right. I think the contract for the caroenter work will be let to-day. "At every place Id the East that I have vis ited I have found the Brotherhood to be very popular. In New York it is generally conceded that Ward will win his case next time easier than he did last time." HECKEB'S PEOGBA1I3IE. Manager Hecker, of the old League clnb. also had something to say last evening about bis team. He said: "I have just arranged to have the McKeesport club play our clnb at Recreation Park on April i and 5. I expect to have the East End Athletics play against us on April L 'Wheeling has written for dates, and 1 am expecting similar requests from various other clubs. We will be able to fill np all the dates we have to spare. We want all the games we can get so as to give our youngsters a good show." Manager Hecker received a letter from Carney, the local player who resides on Troy HiH. Carney wants the manager to give him a try. He is a fielder and pitcher, and as soon as the slayers commence to practice Manager Hecker will test Carney. It was also stated by a gentleman interested in the club that D. A. Sullivan, of Lowell, has offered first baseman Hamilton and third baseman Bhimricli to the Pittsburg clnb for $2,530. They are left-handed batters and hare splendid batting records. Manager Hecker stated last evening that he was not In a position to say anything about whether or not such an offer had been re ceived. Hon ever, if there has, it is not likely that $2,500 will be paid for their release. TEMPTING DANNY. Mr. Appleton Offer Richardson SI5.000 to Desert the Brotherhood. rsrECXsx txlzokam to the dibfatcii.-. ET.TtfrnA.N. Y February 11 W. L Apple ton, a director of the National League, is in this city endeavoring to secure Danny Richard son, the second baseman ot last year's New York clnb, from the Brotherhood. He arrived in the city last evening and was closeted with the baseball player the greater part of the night. Mr. Appleton talked eloquently of the pleasant relations which had always existed between the directors of the National League and Mr. Richardson during the tatter's six years' connection with the New York clnb, and said he thought Richardson ought to stick by the League. Appleton then presented as a more persuasive argument $5,000 in cash, which amount he offered as advance money for bis signature to a League contract for three years, and to pay him 15,000 for his work for that length of time. Richardson declined this offer, and he closed his determination to remain with the Brother hood. Mr. Appleton is. however, persistent, and will remain here some time yet. To a Dis patch reporter this afternoon he expressed perfect confidence that he would finally seenre Kichardson's signature. He said this method bad been determined upon by the directors as a cheaper method of killing the Brotherhood than a battle during the season, in which was inevitable financial loss for both leagues. He said they had decided to pay large sums to a few of the best of the Brotherhood players, and if these were secured, he thought the Brotherhood would go nnder Richardson has been one of the most ardent supporters of the Brotherhood, and Mr. Appleton appears to think that if he can seenre him his object will be easily accomplished. He intimated that, if necessary, he would in crease the amount offered to Richardson to 120,000 for the three years. He said be regarded him as one of the best ball players In the coun try, and if he could be secured he would bo made second baseman and captain of the New York club. Richardson yet holds firmly to the Brotherhood, bnt It is thought that he shows signs ot weakening, and may yet be signed by Mr, Appleton. irms DENIES IT. The Hun of .Many Contracts Forgets a. Few Things. E. .L "McKean, the ball player, now visiting in this city, wired Al Johnson, of Cleveland, yes terday to the effect that the statements credited to him (McKean) In yesterday's Dispatch were false. A denial of this kind coming from McKean is not remarkable; indeed, it is com monplace. Every statement published was made by McKean to a gentleman whose veracity cannot be impeached, and who has not made a business of taking oaths and breaking them and signing contracts and trampling them in the dust. Tne gentleman to whom McKean talked is a roan of honor and truth. Neither is it surprising that McKean should express opinions and declare intentions dia metrically opposed to each other in a hotel talking to newspaper reporters when he has done the same deliberately on legally prepared -documents. Whether McKean is a Brother hood member or whether be is a National League player will probably not affect the earth's motion, bat it -certainly is to be ex pected that be will not attempt to drag others down to the same mutability of mind as him self. McKean also informed Mr. Johnson that Pittsburg is a great Brotherhood town. McKean evidently discovered this after he had unbosomed himBelt as to waiting a little longer before determining which side be would be on- However, let it be emphatically stated that McKean was quoted correctly in yesterday's Dispatch. Late last evening McKean was seen regard ing bis telegram to Cleveland. He was con fronted by his interviewer, and admitted tbe truth -of the interview. "Bnt," be said, "I think I told yon that I was with the Brother hoods If I did not, I should have done so. I am legally with the Brotherhood, because X think they can hold me by my contract. I've jbo other reason." McKean Id Cleveland. E. J-McKean recently visited Cleveland, and tbe Leader of that city says: KcKean was in town yesterday, but had very little to say about baseball. He did state that he wag waiting sow to see what the outcome of the second ease against Ward would be. There is going to be a hitch in the Brotherhood about McKean unless Ward has been badly misquoted. In another interview he has again stated strongly that he will fight the return ol .any player blacklisted by the Brotherhood. Ward is one of tbe big guns in the new League. Nobody will deny that. But be will find that he is sure to come Slap up" against tbe capitalists of his own organization In this matter, and if they so desire they will overrule him. That's jnst what they did in the National League, and that was one of the reasons why John got np a League of his own. Has he jumped from the skillet into the coals! THE HOESEMEN'S C0XGRESS. Some Important Dullness Transacted by the National Association. Buffalo, N. Y., February 12. The thir teenth biennial congress of the National Trot ting Association was convened this afternoon by President P. P. Johnson, of Lexington. A large number of horsemen were present. The number of persons and horses remaining un der penalty December SI, 1889, according to Secretary M. M. Morse's report, is as follows: Persons suspended, 2.703; persons expelled, 209; horses suspended, 1,405: horses expelled, 128; total, 4,417. The report for two years show: Persons suspended, 3,317: persons expelled, 178; horses suspended, LOT4; horses expelled. 111: total. 5,580. Deducting the number of men and horses under penalty of suspension and expul sion December 31, 1SS9 (4,7)i shows a decrease in the aggregate of 1.133. Treasurer Lewis J. Powers, of Springfield, Mast, reported as follows: Cash on band Jan uary 1, 1SS8 (as per previous report). $10,740 56; receipts for 1SSS. 816,881 64: total, $27,602 20: dis bursements for 1SSS, $13,341 77; balance lor 1SS8, $14,260 43; receipts- for 1SS9, $16,888; disburse ments for 1889, 314.315 27; balance on hand Jan uary L 1S90. $16,833 29. The Board of Review is still in secret session on the Alcyron-Nelson case. Mr. Page, of Philadelphia, moved tbe follow ing resol ution, n bich was unanimously adopted: Resolved. That the members of the National Trotting Association In Congress assembled at Buffalo, hereby tender their deepest and most sincere sympathy to the Hon. Benjamin F. Tracy, bers or his family In their terrible affliction. Mr. Page, also a member of the Rule Com mittee, presented the following resolution: Whekeab, The Board of Bvlew has been re strained by the court from Investigating tbe charges of fraud pending against C H. Nelson, F. I.. Noble and George H. Koblns, and the stal lions Alevrnn And Xelson; therefore. It Is re solved by the Congress of the National Trotting Association that the said parties and horses are hereby suspended from all privileges on tbe course. In membership In this society nntll said lnlunctlons are dlssolvedand tbesald charges are legally investigated by the Board of Bevlew." Tbe resolution was passed by the members and the congress, and although they expressed deep sympathy for Messrs. Hoble and Nelson, they belie ved that in serving ap injunction on the Board of Review it was their dnty to de fend that honorable body. Mr. Nelson spoke a few words regarding the mistake he had made in serving the injunction and publicly announced that at the next meet ing of tbe Board of Review he hoped to satisfy tbe board and bis friends, who were all mem bers of tbe National Trotting Association, that he was innocent. Mr. Nelson also said that the injunction would bo dissolved immediately. The report of the Committee on Rules was then submitted. 'Among the Important amend ments was one that a record to a road wagon is a bar to races of every character. Carried. Dr. Day, of Waterloo, N. Y.. offered a reso lution designed to prevent "ringers." It was to tbe effect thattheremnst be furnished bytbe nominator, a certificate from his county clerk of the description, color,pedlgree and marks of tbe horse entered. Defeated. The following officers were elected: Presi. dent, P. P.Johnston, of Lexington: First Vice President, David Bonner, of New York: Sec ond Vice President, W. W. Stowe, of San Francisco. New York was selected as the place of meet ing In 1892, and the Murray Hill Hotel will probably be the specific seat of the congress. THE BRASSPIELD SALE.

Reddy Strnun and Mike Cobarn Have a Untiling Battle. Buffalo, N. Y February 12. A terrific slugging match occurred early yesterday morn ing at Barney Fossett's roadbonse in Cheekto waga, outside ot the city limits, between Reddy Strauss and Mike Coburn. a relative of Joe Cobura. The parse was only $50, bat the men gave the spectators a fight that they have rarely seen. Two-ounce gloves were worn. The men were evenly matched and in good condition. Prof. James Haley, of New York, was the referee. Jack Hanley seconded Co burn, while Joe Vanderbush held tne sponges for the1 Buffalo boy. Thirty rounds altogether were fought. 'When it became evident that tbe scrap was going to be red-hot considerable money was wagered. Terrific slugging and some science characterized the first five rounds, and Strauss had much tbe best of It, bnt Co burn anlckly recovered and fought like a bull dog. He continued to got the worst of the hammering, but did considerable damage to Strauss, who failed to follow np a knock-out chance. The men pounded each other hard, and fought until they were exhausted.. The match was decided to be a draw, neither man being able to come np for the thirty-first round. j Trrnsorer in Town.

TEE NEW EOAD FKOH AKRON TO CAEEI, Known as the Pittsburg, Akron and Westers, to be Completed at Once, Mist Coyle, a maiden lady of Sharon, claims that she holds a judgment note of 10,000 against the Sankey estate, given her for saving tbe life of the late Mr. Sankey. Carlisle students send money to the starving Indians at Devil's Lake. The fight over the Oil City postmastership settled. ISPECIAI. TELEOBAM TO TBS DISPATCH. 1 New Castle, Pa., February 12. Mattie Coyle, a maiden lady of Sharon, who will shortly bring suit against the estate of David Sankey, father of Ira D. Sankey, the celebrated evangelist, for the recovery of $10,000 on a judgment which she holds, and alleged to have been given to her tor saving Mr. Sankey's life, related the following strange story to your correspondent to-night: "One day during the year 18801 was then residing in New Castle while I was pass ing down the "Westside hill I saw Mr. Sankey slip and fall. A team of horses, hauling a load of coal, were- approaching toward him, and would have run over him had I not, at the risk of my own life, dragged Mr. Sankey out from under the horses' feet. He was quite aged. "At the time of the accident he said to me: 'You have saved my life at tbe risk of your own.and 1 shall remember vou for it,' On No vember 8, 1884, a lady called at my house in Sharon and handed me an envelope which con tained a Judgment note for $10,000. Accom panying this note was a letter stating that tbe bearer's name was Mrs. Mary J. Brown, and that she bad been charged with the delivery of the note." Miss Coyle further stated that she presented the note to Mr. Ira D. Sankey, and that be only looked at it, saying that it resembled bis father's writing. The note was drawn with an indelible lead pencil, and bore the date of No vember 2, 1SS2. Miss Coyle states that Mr. Sankey's heirs pronounced the note a forgery, and Ira D. Sankey claims that his father never transacted business with a lead pencil. David Sankey, who Miss Coyle claims signed the note, died early in January, 1884, in the winter before Miss Coyle received the note. She says she will collect the amount the note calls for If there is any possible means of doing B00U IN C0EG TRADE. No Dullness Anticipated, and Heavy Ship- meats Looked For. rSFECIAI. TZLZOKAK TO THE DI8FATC2.1 Scottdaxe, February 12. The boom in the coke trade may be considered at an end for a few weeks to come and the market may be un settled and depressed. Many operators hold that there will be no dullness in trade, and that sblnments will be nearly as heavy as tbey have been the last few weeks. A dullness may be caused by the high prices demanded for coke and consumers filling up well on account of apprehension of the strike. The satisfactory solution of the wage question may have been the cause of some firms to renew their con tracts, bnt tbe companies who order in lots are cutting down orders decidedly. The operators are compelled to askasligh; advance for coke on account of the increased cost of production and there is fear on account of the forcible kick of iron dealers that some of the orders will, be taken to the West Vir ginia and Reynoldsville fields, where coke, al though inferior in quality, may be gotten at a much lower figure. The shipments for the week under review were not as large as usual, although they were oulte heavy. The signs for this week are that shipments will be np to the average If the con signments to Western points on Monday are any indication. They will sum up to 900 cars. The operators generally express themselves as being well pleased at the outcome of tbe re cent conference, and everything points to a year of peace in the Connellsville region. The railroad companies are not bothered in the least with any scarcity of cars, bands or motive power, and this year will, if nothing interferes, show the largest shipments of coke. The for eign trade in coke will materially aid this re gion, Tne Pencsville Coke Company will build SO or GO new ovens additional to their Fenns ville plant next spring. The Mahoning and Mayer works are still idle. Last week the shipments averaged 1.267 cars per day, or 7,605 cars for the entire week, a falling off of 83 cars. In tons they amounted to 136,890. The shipments were distributed thus: To points west of Pittsburg, 4,425 cars: to points east of Pittsburg, 1,500 cars; to Pittsburg, 1,680 cars; total, 7,605. As' will be seen, shipments to points west of Pittsburg fell off 335 cars, while shipments to Pittsburg increased 120 cars. As predicted by THE DISPATCH not long since that by an amicable settlement of wage troubles coke would take a jump to $2, and even higher. It has demonstrated itself, and to-day it is reliably stated that $2 15 is being asked. This will make a decided change this week for coke prices at principal points of con sumption. Last week the ola prices. $1 75, $2 05 and $2 55 were still being used. Prices were then quoted at large cities as follows: Place. Furnace. Foundry Crashed.

SPEAKER EEED CALIED A TYRANT By Democratic Orators, While Kepntlicans Warmlj Defend Him. m SATISFACTION FROJI HARRISON To bo Obtained by Pennsylvania Congressmen Who Visit the White House. A protracted and somewhat bitter debate on the new code of rules took place in the House yesterday. A test vote was made on the reading of the journal. Only one Democrat voted, although 72 were counted as present and not voting. A protest was entered. WASHiNGTON.February 12. The House met at 11 o'clock this' morning in continua tion of yesterday's session. The debate on the proposed code of rules was continued by Mr. Dockery of Missouri in the vein of earnest criticism. The proposed rules,he said, would relieve Congress of the necessity of repealing taxation, at least as far as the sur plus was concerned. He predicted that at the end of the session the surplus would have disappeared, by reason of the prodi gality which the rules invited. Discussing tbe question of permitting the Speaker to count a quorum, he expressed bis profound regret that any conceivable party interest could have induced the Republicans, to abandon constitutional grounds for the un explored region either of parliamentary law or of the new power sought to be conterred upon the Speaker. THE SPEAKER'S PCTWEB TOO OBEAT. The proposition to allow the Speaker to decide what dilatory motions were, was based upon theidea of the infallibility, incor ruptibility and impartiality of the Speaker. Such powers were more in harmony with the character of the Czar of all the Eussias than with the spirit aud genius of our free institutions. Mr. Morse, of Massachusetts, defended the proposed code, and then said: It bas been repeatedly stated on the other side during this debate tbat the present Republican President did not reoeive a majority of the popular vote of the country. What that has to do with the question under consideration I am not able to discover, but how would it have been If there had been a free and fair election and an honest count in the Southern States of tbe Union? Away with this nonsense about Cleveland having a majority of the popular vote of the country when there is no snch thing as a free and fair election in several of the great States of the Union. DELAYING PUBLIC BUSINESS. Mr. Allen, of Michigan, supported the rules, and especially that which permits the Speaker to refuse to recognize dilatory mo tions, and eulogized the recent action of Speaker Reed in this respect. The dilatory motions had not been made to further pub lic business, not to prevent raids on the Treasury, not for the purpose of settling some great question, but bad been made tor the purpose of preventing the consideration of the question whether Jackson had a right to a seat on this floor. He ridiculed the ex citement which had prevailed on the Demo cratic side, but said tbat it had quieted down when the Democrats and the country had seen that the Speaker was not a reed to be shaken by the wind. The Jlouse adjourned at 11:55 and at noon the session' of Wednesday began. The journal having been read, Mr. Boutelle, of Maine, asked unanimous consent for its ap proval, bnt objections came from the Demo cratic Bide and a roll call was made neces sary.. The journal was approved yeas 119, nays 1 (Mr. Buckalew) the Speaker count ing 72 Democrats as present and not voting. PEECEDEHTS SET AT AUGHT. Mr. McCreary, of Kentucky, entered his emphatic protest against the new code, and criticised the recent decisions of the Speaker. That officer bad defied all precedents and had reversed the parliamentary decisions of nearly all the Speakers who had presided over the House. He had not only overruled Blaine, Garfield, Hawley and Conger, but he had overruled his own utterances when on tbe floor of the House. Tbe time had come when the House heeded rules instead of a ruler and dictator; fairness and justice instead of communism and Ceesarism. Mr. Cutcheon, of Michigan, supported the proposed rules, declaring that tbey tended to facilitate business instead of to obstruct it, and to give tbe control of the business of the House into the hands ol the majority, and not leave it at the mercy of tbe minority. The rules substituted action for inaction, legislation lor obstruction. And to that extent, and that extent only, they were revolutionary. A SOLITABY DEMOCRATIC VOTER. Mr. Buckalew, of Pennsylvania, the one Democrat who has voted when present upon every question, criticised the proposed rules because they tended to stifle adequate and necessary debate. Mr. Kerr, of Iowa, presented an argument in support or the proposed code and Mr. Hooker, of Mississippi, made a constitu tional argument aeainst it. Arguments in support of the proposed code were made by Anderson, of Kansas; Henderson, of Iowa; Buchanan, of Kew Jersey; Walker, of Massachusetts: Moore, of Kew Hampshire: Dunnell, of Minnesota; Houck, of Tennessee, and J. D. Taylor, of Ohio, and against it by Cummings, of Kew York; Carruth, of Kentucky; Mansur, of Missouri; Lane, of Illinois; Rogers, of Ar kansas. Springer, of Illinois; Snively, of Indiana; "Wike, of Illinois; Brookshire, of Indiana, and Pierce, of Tennessee. BOTH SIDES OF THE QUESTION. Mr. Carruth had discovered that "gen eral parliamentary law" was an autocrat and a tyrant. He had come to the conclu sion that the Speaker should be dosed with Colonel Mulberry Sellers' eve water exter nally, internally and eternally. Laughter He had seen tne same speaker recognise a Republican before he had risen from his chairor had raised his voice; and he had been reminded of tbe Lieutenant Governor of a Western state, who, calling to the door keeper said, "Go out and find Senator Gun ton. He is somewbere about the Capitol; tell him he is recognized and has the floor. He ,(Mr. Caruth) had become anxious that the aruurorv ucuciiu buuuiu ue superseded. Mr. Henderson, of Iowa, said tbat for the last few weeks the country had witnessed scenes uneqnaled in the history of the Gov ernment. The Speaker of the House, backed' by every Republican member on the floor, had been making a stand for the rights and liberties of the people. That batile had brought on scenes exceeding in monstrous proportions (in all except brutality) any that had ever occurred in the national Capitol. Only one picture stood out stronger in history, and that was when a Democratio club laid the immortal Sumner on the floor of the Senate. CONGBESS A SPECTACLE. The ridicule and the rantings of a mob had been represented to 65,000,000 people. Epithets had been hnrled broadcast from the other side of the Chamber at the presiding officer. Language which should have ex pelled its users had been uttered and flashed over the wires. "Tyrant," "usurper," "cor ruptionist," were the speeches to which the country had Been treated. Gentlemen could Dot be called to account for this language. The Speaker, rising to the situation like a granite mountain, had met the occasion, and calmly, grandly done the duty of the hour. The House did not adjourn until 11 o'clock. Hundreds of spectators filled the galleries in the evening. Oklahoma BUI Recommended. Wasbxwqtok, February 12. The House Committee on Territories to-day' decided to report favorably without amendments the bill introduced yesterday by Eepresentative Perkins, of Kentuckytvto organize the Ter ritory ot Oklahoma and to establish courts in the Indian Territory. A REPUBLICAN CRDSEED. Speaker Reed Refuses to Entertain a Friend's Motion to Adjourn. I SPECIAL TXLIQBAM TO TBI PISM.TCH.1 Washikotok, February 12. Speaker Reed astonished one of his Republican col leagues this mornins by turning the tables upon him, and refusing to entertain his mo tion to adjonrn. The venerable Mr. Walker, of Massachusetts, who js one ot the Speak er's most persistent and enthusi astic admirers, was the victim, and all the Repcblicans are wondering whom Reed will turn npon next. When the House met at 11 o'clock there was a very slim attendance. The Chaplain in voked divine counsel upon the meeting, and the clerk read the journal. Following the usual tactics, the Democrats demanded a roll call on its approval. The Republican side of the chamber was especially thin, and some of the Republicans feared that a march was about to be stolen upon them. Mr. Walker saw a chance for distinction, and at once moved an adjournment, which motion the Speaker promptly decided to be out of order. That such a ruling would apply to a Re publican motion had never entered Mr. Walker's head. He was astounded, and when he bad recovered his breatb he ex claimed in agonizing terms: "What! Mr. Speaker, a motion to adjourn not in order?" His distress was great and so evidently real that every man present langhed at him. There was no appeal from the decision, however, and Mr. Walker sat down in con fusion, utterly crushed. PENHBILYANIA'S WAE CLAIMS. Favorable Committee Action Probable on tbe Reimbursement Bill. ,'FBOM A 8TAIT CORBISPONDINT.l Washington, February 12. It is ex pected that a favorable report will be made some time next week by the House Com mittee on War Claims on Mr. Maish's bill for the repayment of the claims occasioned by the border raids during the late war. A member of the committee said to-day that from a careful canvass of his fellow mem bers he was of the opinion that the com mittee would benearly unanimous in recom mending the passage" of the bill. The bill calls for an appropriation of $3,447, 945, of which $900,000 will" go to reimburse the State of Pennsylvania for disbursements made for the immediate relief of sufferers from these raids, and the bulk of tbe re mainder will go to the citizens of Chambers burg, who lost heavily by the destruction of that town by fire during the early raid. The bill provides that the money be paid to the Governor of Pennsylvania for the use of the claimants whose claims have been ad judicated and filed with the Auditor Gen eral of the State. The House Committee on War Claims has'ordered a favorable report on the bill to pay $30,000 to certain families in the county of Schuylkill, Fa., due them as the pay of soldiers provided by said families to tbe general army during the late war. P0ST0FFICE FIGHTS SETTLED. Recommendations for Appointees at Oil City nnd Homestead. tVEOM X BTAVT COHRESPONDEHT.I Washington, February 12. This was a fruitful day for the settlement of postoffice contests in Western Pennsylvania. Ko less than three of them were disposed of, two by Representative Watson and one by Con gressman Bay. The most important of the cases settled to-day was that of Oil City. For a long time there has been a lively fight over this office among the six or seven candidates. Mr. Watson decided the matter to-day, however, by recommending the ap pointment of Mr. William M. McKim. Mr. McKinl has bad a good deal of expe rience in postoffice matters, having been for several years in the railway mail service. Mr. Watson has also settled the contest over the Tidioute postoffice, by recommending the appointment of Henry Harrison Evans. Mr. Evans is an old resident, and a very capable man, in Mr. Watson's estimation. If Congressman Ray's recommendations have any effect with this administration, Bobert McWhinney will sell stamps at Homestead, Allegheny county, for the next four years. The recommendation was made this atternoon. The other candidates were Messrs. Bolfe, Izenour and Morton. MAKING SO PROMISES. Harrison Gives No SntUfaeiorr Answer to Kay and Dnlzell. PEOM A STATT CORRESPONDENT. J Washington, February 12.- Repre sentatives Kay and Dalzell to-day went to tbe White House and had a long talk with the President about the McKeesport post office. Mr. Bay protested against the delay caused by the Postoffice Department in holding up Captain Thompson's nomination, and he laid before the President all the facts in the case so far as he knew them. He declared that Captain Thompson was the choice of the people of McKeesport, and that there was no good reason why the nomina tion should be withdrawn. The President, however, made no positive statement in reply, and Mr. Bay left the White House ju't as uncertain as to what action would be taken as when be west there. Incidentally during the conversa tion he mentioned'the case of the Washing ton postoffice, where the man nominated by Mr. Bay is opposed by Mr. Ewing, a rela tive of Secretary Blaine, but conld get no satisfaction from the President as to what his intentions are in the matter.
