To-morrow the first general city election
under the new charter will be held, and to
day The Dispatch prints a complete list
of the candidates. The most important
officers to be voted for are a Mayor, Con
troller, and Treasurer. Forty-six members
of Common Council for two years, 18 mem
bers of Select Council for four years, and
about two-thirds of the total number of Al
dermen in the city are to be elected.
The next city election will not be held for
two years. The new city charter, has been
in effect since April, 188, and although
there were a number of Councilmen elected
one year ago, they were not regularly
chosen under the new law, although it was
made to apply to their cases.
THE TTABD CONTESTS.
The following are the candidates to be
voted for, for Council and Alderman:
first ward Common Council, Thomas
Delaney, Republican, and Stephen Toole,
Democrat. There is a hot fight between
Michael Cassiday, the present incumbent,
and P. J. Donahoe, for the honors of deal
ing out justice to the people of the ward.
John McM. King and William C. Mason,
two stanch Republicans, are the nominees
for Select and Common Council, respect
ively, in the Second ward, with no Demo
cratic opposition. James Y. McMasters,
the Alderman, has no opponent for re-election.
James Renziehausen, the present repre
sentative from the Third ward, is running
as an independent candidate in the Third
ward against John Groetzinger, another Re
publican, for Common Council. Judge
Gripp has a clear field for election as
'Squire.
In the Fourth ward there are five candi
dates. They are John A. Wilson, a Repub
lican, J. J. King, John Gibbons and
Jackson, all Democrats, for Common, and
George H. Trusch, a Republican, for Select
Council. Such a thing as an opponent
against Magistrate McKenna, could not be
thought of and the 'Squire will have a walk
over. In the old "bloody fifth," John C. Reilly
is running for Select, with Patrick White
and William Collins for Common Council.
It is needless to say that the trio are Demo
crats. In the Sixth ward, Harry B. Kewlin is
the newest and youngest candidate, with I
John .Enrich, John Dunn, Jr., and David
Xarkin for the Common branch. The first
two are Republicans and the others Demo

In the Seventh 'Squire Richards has no
opposition for the aidermanic position. Two

publican, is running against Martin
Bropby for Common Council. The latter is

of James Foster, a Republican.
There is a quartet of candidates for Coun

McClure, W. T. Taggart, O. K. Gardner
and James Herron. The latter two are run

About the Allegheny City Hall there
were few politicians yesterday. Ex-Mayor
Wyman remained at his house and received
a great number of visitors. The Republi
cans are confident "of his election by a ma
jority of 2,000. The Democrats believe
that Mr. Stayton will receive a large vote
from independent Republicans who do not
approve of the methods of Mr. Wyman's
iormer administration. The Wyman men
say there may be tome voters of "that kind,
but that they will be offset by the Demo
crats who will vote for Wyman."
It is said that Mr. Wyman is receiving
monetary aid from Pittsburg. He has an
army ot workers, and will have the noils
well manned to-morrow. Mr. Stayton ap
pears to bear the burden of his campaign
almost wholly on his own shoulders. The
Democratic City Committee has done noth
ing to reveal the existence of such an or
ganization. Some ot the Aidermanic contests are ap
parently close, and, to a fev politicians,
qnite interesting. In the first ward Edward
L. Braun, the druggist, defeated Alderman
Tatem by 97 votes at the Republican
primary. Tatem is a crippled veteran. He
receives a pension of $50 a month. Upon
the advice of some of bis friends, including
City Hall officials, be has decided to stand
as an independent candidate. Mr. Braun
is a brother to the late Gns Braun, who was
Chief of Police of Pittsburg.
In the Third ward the race between Mc
Nulty and Waldschmidt appears to be a
close one. A number of Republicans openly
declare their support of the Democratic can
didate. McNulty defeated Brown at the Re
publican primary by 12 votes only.
Alderman Brinker has two independent
antagonists in the Twelfth ward. It is a
German ward and both his antagonists are
Germans. Klotz is a confectioner and
Eisenbcis a druggist.
Two members of the Board of School Con
trollers will be elected in each ward. With
a few exceptions the present members have
been re-elected.
It was announced at City Hall yesterday
that all the principal workers for Cruik
shank and Bader had announced their sup
port of Wyman.

Full election returns will be bulletined at
the Southside office of The Dispatch,
1220 Carson street, Tuesday evening.
Political Notes.
Colokel Sam Kiloore yesterday formally
withdrew from the Mayoralty contest in favor
of Mr. Gourley.
William Bader yesterday wrote s. personal
letter to J. G. Wyman indorsing his candidacy
as a Republican.
Captain Martin, in a card, withdraws as
an independent candidate for Mayor in favor
of Isaac R. Stayton.
Joseph Tbaub has announced himself In
the field for School Director of the Ninth ward,
Pittsburg, and will run on the independent
ticket with Alderman C. O'Donnell.
On Saturday night the First Wardlnde
Dendent Ulnb held a meeting and indorsed the
nomination of Thomas Delaney for Council
and of the Republican city candidates.
It is apparent that the informations made
before Alderman Reilly Saturday afternoon
against the 14 "speak-easy" proprietors are
only the beginning of a general crusade
against a class of citizens of which about
200 are liable to be arrested for illegal
liquor selling within the next few
days. It may be said, too, that the
warfare is not being made for political pur
poses. The dealers against whom informa
tions have been made are men of Republican
and Democratic faiths, and those yet to be
prosecuted will be informed against without
regard to politics. Tt was reported in the
First ward yesterday that 'County Detective
Langhorst had a list of 96 names of illicit
liquor sellers against whom informations
would be made to-day, and that the majority
of these would come from that ward. It
was also stated that Langhorst had gone
out of the city to avoid the newspaper men.
TAKING SOMEPBECATJTIONS.
Repeated calls at his house on Hemlock
street, Allegheny, yesterday afternoon and
last night failed to find the gentleman at
home. The supposition was that he did not
want to give any information about the in
tended warfare "for fear that the dealers
would take the hint and change their quar
ters. When District Attorney Johnston
was seen at a late hour last night be talked
rather cautiously about the matter. He
said:
"It is the duty of some citizen to proceed
against all violators of the law. The de
partment seems to think it is not their duty,
and since Agent McCall's term of office has
expired, there is no one left to do the work
but the county detective. I don't know ab
solutely that Mr. Langhorst has any addi
tional names just now, although he may
have, but I will say that as fast as names
and witnesses are furnished you can rest
assured that the people who are running
illegal places will be prosecuted. I don't
care who they are, how many there may be
or from what section of the city they may
come."
THE POLITICS OP IT.
"It seems a little strange that this move
should be made just at this time so close to
the election," was suggested.
"I don't know that it has any political
significance," said Mr. Johnston. "Those
names against whom informations were
made Saturday may have been furnished by
some one connected with the Democratic
headquarters, but if they were I do not
know it"
"Hdw long will it be before other infor
mations will be made?"
"Mr. Lanshorst has charge of all that
work. I cannot tell. Jnst as fast ai names
and evidence are furnished prosecutions will
follow."
Chairman Foley, of the Democratic City
Committee, said yesterday that he did not
know anything about the matter, but he was
sure the movement had not emanated from
his committee. W. J. Brennen also denied
having any knowledge of the affair. He said
"he did not think there could beauy political
significance-attached to it, unless the move
would only be made against those "speak
easy " proprietors who are alleged to have been
sheltered and protected by the Department
of Public Safety, for the good they may be
able to do at to-morrow's election. But as
the move seems to be a general one, and it
was not likely a hearing could be had in
anv of the cases until alter the election, he
did not think it possible that it was being
done for political effect.

The State Board of Health Makes New
Bale Some Cases of Disinterment Are
Strictly Forbidden Relative Not Al
lowed to Travel With the Remain of
Departed One.
The State Board of Health has just issued
a circular containing the regulations for the
transportation and disinterment of dead
bodies. The undertakers of this city have
been furnished copies of the circular, from
which the following extracts have been
taken.
The removal of dead bodies from any
burial ground sltnated within the built up
portions of any city or borough is for
bidden between April 1 and October 15. No
body can be moved from its original place
of interment without permission of the local
board. The transportation of bodies of per
sons dead of smallpox, varioloid, Asiatic
cholera, leprosy, typhus fever or yellow
fever is strictly forbidden.
The bodies of persons dead of diphtheria,
membranous croup, anthrax, scarlet fever,
puerperal fever, typhoid fever, erysipelas,
measles, whooping cougb, or dysentery must
be wrapped in a sheet thoroughly saturated
with a strong solutioh of bi-chloride of mer
cury, and encased in an air-tight zinc, tin,
copper or lead lined coffin. In the case of
contagious, infectious, or communicable dis
eases, the body must not be accompanied by
persons who, or articles which, have been
exposed to the infection of the disease.
The bodies of persons dead of diseases that
are not contagious, infectious or communi
cable, may be received for transportation to
local points in this State when encased in a
sound coffin or metallic case, and enclosed
in a strong wooden box, securely fastened so
that it may be safely handled. Every dead
body must be accompanied by a person in
charge, who must be provided with a transit
permit from the Board of Health, or proper
health authority, giving permission for the
removal, and showing name of deceased,
age, place or death, cause of death.
All disinterred bodies, dead from any dis
ease or canse, will be treated as infectious
and dangerous to pnblic health, and must
not be accepted for transportation unless
said removal has been approved by the State
or Local Board of Health, and the consent
of the health authority of the locality to
which the corpse is consigned has first been
obtained.

A MANIA P0K ARSON TO BE CHECKED
A Befall Dealer Telia How He Snflers From
the Evils of this Practice.
The head of a local retail store in chatting
yesterday about his business said the great
est trouble he had to contend with was the
shoplifter. It is surprising, he stated, how
people of all classes will slip small things
when they think the clerks are not looking,
and frequently on account of the promi
nence of the persons they can't complain.
Sometimes they quietly add the price of
what is taken to the bill, but when the
practice becomes too bold they have to re
sort to the law.
"Sou would be surprised," he added.
"what kind of people are guilty of this-
naDit. juany ot them are wealthy and well
able to pay for what thev quietly sneak. It
is not always the poor, as one wonld im
agine, who do the stealing."

Mrs. Barnes is a fluent speaker, and has

A KEW lOKKEE'S ESTIMATE.
J. D. Waring- Compliments the Art Loan
Exhibit Hlchly.
J. D. Waring, a New York art dealer
stopping at the Anderson for a few days,
took occasion to visit the art exhibit in the
Carnegie Library a few days since. In
reference to it, he states that he was much
surprised at the magnitude and excellence
of the collection, and does not think there
is any city outside ot New York or Boston
that can show anything superior.
Chicago has quite a reputation as an art
center, but it would be unable, in Mr.
Waring's opinion, to put up a better dis
play than that on view in Alleghenv the
-past week.
The number of conflagrations with which
Oakland has of late been afflicted has con-
confirmed the theory that incendiaries were
at work in that section. As often as this
idea has been given publicity it waslaughed
down as being ridiculous., the laughers in
variably proponnding the question: "What
motive could the incendiaries bave?"
The reasons advanced were that the work,
if done maliciously, must have been done
for spite, or in the hope of gain, in the way
of robbing neighboring houses, allowed to
left unprotected during the excitement of
the fires. Others again raised the natural
gas theory a theory which had good argu
ment to maintain it, as it is universally ad
mitted that the pressure is very erratic in
that vicinity, particularly at night about
11 o'clock, necessitating extreme care on the
part of consumers to prevent accident.
Again, it was argued that the fires
might be caused by the boys of the vicinity,
who were continually found playing in and
around the structures destroyed. '
SEABCH FOE THE CAUSE.
With the idea of fixing definitely and
reasonably on some canse or other, a Dis
patch representative has thoroughly can
vassed the district. The Oakland patrol
station seemed to offer the best starting
point, and it was pitched upon first. But
little information of value could be elicited
there. Whether or no those in charge there
resent the many imputations that they are
not attending to the district under their
charge as carefully as they should, or
whether the idea prevails that to be surly
and silent is to be dignified, or when ques
tioned direct meant that an indirect reply
would be the correct thing; certain it is
that little news could De obtained
there. The only reply that came near
having any connection with the inquiry was
one to the effect that there was "more fuss
than feathers" in the prevailing reports;
that the fires generally resulted from care
lessness in the handling of fuel, gas, etc.
Inasmuch as it was afterward found that
in only one or two or the ten or more cases
investigated natural gas was in use in the
buildings burned, the sarcastic assertions of
the police officials will hardly hold good.
A LOOK AT THE BTJINS.
AMERICA LEADS.
Yankee Steel Manufacturers Have Knocked
Oat the English In Canadian Market
Cheapness Is Attained and Better Qual
ityPossibilities of Commercial Union.
J. B. Armstrong, a steel man of Guelph,
Canada, is at the Anderson Hotel. Mr.
Armstrong states that the time has come
when American steel has knocked ont the
English in Canadian markets. He says he
has been expecting it, but he didn't think
the time would come so soon. The Ameri
cans can now not only compete with foreign
ers in point of cheapness In the manufacture
of steel, but the quality is much better.
Mr. Armstrong is a heavy buyer of steel,
and he also mates it. He says he was forced
to locate his works' in Michigan in order to be
able to meet bis neighbors across the border.
He asked the Canadian Customs Collector
for a rebate, but it was refused, and he was
compelled to manufacture in America.
Mr. Armstrong stated that the trade is
only in its infancy, and that steel can be put
to a great many uses. He exhibited tiro
thin strips of steel, one of which could be
bent with slight pressure, the other wonld
yield a little, but returned to its original po
sition as soon as the weight was removed.
"Steel," continued Mr. Armstrong, "is
fast becoming inflexible. It depends on the
process of tempering and the amount of car
bon used. These things will be remedied in
time. Now, I manufacture carriages and
sleighs out of steel. The shafts and tongues
are all one piece, and are as light as wood
and more durable.
"As to commercial union with America,
I think it would be a good thing for Can
ada, and even annexation is possible. I
remember a few years ago the people were
afraid to talk much about either, bnt now
thev discuss both Questions freelv. Sir
John McDonald is the strongest man the
Tories have on the Government Board, and
after he dies I really don't know what tbey
will do for a leader. The trouble with
Canada is that the country is large, and
they haven't the people. What are 5,000,
000 inhabitants, anyhow? They need out
side assistance and immigration. The
Canadians, however, are of good stock, and
make excellent citizens."

THE HOME OPENED.
The Wife of a Former Plttsburcer Builds

The Albert Glockner Home at Colorado
Springi, built by Mrs. Glockner in honor of
her dead husband, was formally opened

A. Kane, ot Duquesne, has returned home
from the East.
The next place visited was the house or
rather the ruins of a house owned by
.George McMillan, now residing in Chatta
nooga, Tenn. This house had been unoc
cupied since last fall, but, as several persons
had been at won: in the building for several
days previous to its destruction, preparing
it for Mr. Mold, of Hugus & Hacke's, who
had rented it, it may have been natural
gas in this instance. Opinions differ re
garding it, but the majority favor the gas
theory in this case, as the light of the grate
fire had been noticed showing through the
window during the previous evening, but
the conflagration did not take place until 3
a. m. on February 2. This was the only
Iinncp ihnt wna in a finished ctntf
About 200 feet from the McMillan house,
at tne junction 01 uumore ami vraru
streets, are the ruins of the two houses
burned shortly after 9 o'clock on Wednesday
evening last. The natural gas theory docs
not appear to be worth a button in this case.
The houses were in course of erection. Only
one was under roof. No plaster of any kind
had been applied, and even the chimneys
had nqt been built.
j NO CHILDREN ABOUT.
The neighbors claim that no children were
about and had not been for some time. The
nearest neighbor, a Mr. Collins, who works
in the Keystone Mill, was the first to dis
cover it, and be gave tbe alarm, out notning
could be done to save tbe houses.
On tbe same street tbe ruins of tbe charm
ing little brick bouse of Mr. Harry Bussell
are located. This house was nearer com
pletion than any of the others, but no
natural gas connection had been made, as
the chimnevs were not completed, and it
contained no hearths at all. Plasterers had
been at work on the ceilings, but on account
of the conditions mentioned no fire had
been used in the house. In this instance
there is almost undoubted proof of incen
diarism. Several nights before the con
flagration a domestic employed in the house
of Mr. Bobert Sellers, which adjoins that
ot liussell, was standing on tbe rear porch
of the house, when she heard a
noise very like that ot an igniting
match in the Bussell structure, and
noticed a light flash in a moment through
the windows. Almost immediately a man
jumped from the rear of the house and fled
rapidly down the hill. If arson was in
tended it was a failure, for it did not burn
that night, but the girl called her employer's
attention to the matter the following morn
ing. BEEAKXNG THE NEWS.
Meeting Mr. Bussell shortly after, Mr.
Sellers said, "I say, Harry, somebody wants
that house of yours."
Mr. Bussell, not understanding, what was
meant by this remark, Mr. Sellers informed
him of the occurrence of the night before.
The former thought but little of the matter
until it was forcibly recalled by the confla
gration following a night or two afterward.
On Boquet street another house was
located, in which shavings and wood chips
had been saturated with oil, but it burnt
itself out without doibg any damage, on
account of the greenness of the wood. An
other house on Atwood street, in which oil
had been poured on the parlor floor and,
ignited. Then the fire in Oakland square'
on New Year's eve an occasion, by the
way, celebrated by four different attempts
at incendiarism in the house being built
by Contractor C. H. Chance, and a number
ot others situated on Oakland, Fifth and
Sylvan avenues, and Ward and Charles
streets, where the attempts at incendiarism
are clearly proven.
NO KATTTBAIi gas these.
In none of these cases, as far as conld be
learned, had natural gas been turned on, so
that 'theory must be abandoned. Nor is
there any proof that fire of any other kind
had been in use in these houses.
Messrs. William Biggev.John Moore and
C. H. Chance, contractors and builders,have
used every effort to get a clue to the incen
diaries, but without avail. They rather
favor the idea that the acts are all commit
ted by one person who has a sort of mania
on the subject. Another belief which has
gained considerable credence is that some
one who feels sore at the employment of
"scab labor," or non-union men on the
building work, is at the bottom of the
trouble, but this hypothesis loses weight
when it is found that in the case of the house
on uaKiana square, wnicn contractor
Chance was building, only union labor was
employed. Whether any non-union men
were working on the others cannot be posi
tively Btated.but from what could be learned,
there were.
Whatever may be the cause
certain it is that residents are very much
alarmed in Oakland. Everyone spoken to
admitted nervousness, and demanded that
active measures be taken for their relief.
Contractors are very timid at present, and
in every case are hesitating to accept con
tracts tor buildings of any kind, as with but
one exception, the conflagrations occnr in
houses in process of erection, and the loss
usually falls on the contractors.
It Comes In nt Critical Moments to Aid
American Manufacturers.
"Do you know," said Mr. A. T. Dou
thett, of the Porter Foundry and Machine
Company, "that not less than 81,000,000 of
English money has been coming into
America for the last two years, and the
time is coming when I believe it will be in
creased to a ?1,000,000 per day. This En
glish capital is a grand, good thing. The
Americans are a progressive but new people.
They have increased the capacity of their
plants beyond their means, and they are
hampered somewhat for reserve capital.
This English money coming in acts as
ballast and keeps business at a steady pace.
"You see, the English are an old people,
and they have branched out into all parts
of the world and made fortunes. They
naturally wander back to London to enjoy
their possessions, and then they don't know
what to do with it. They can't invest in
England at any profit," so they come to
America, and place it where it will mater
ially help us and yield a handsome reward
in return. I never realized before so much
as I do now the grand resources of America
and the possibilities of trade in this
country."
A 50IST QUARTET.
Four Allesbenlaus Taken From a House on
Rebecca Street and Fined.
A noise at tbe house at No. 414 Bebecca
street Sunday morning attracted the atten
tion ot the police, and caused the arrest of
John Smith, Thomas Welsh, Andrew Mc
Tighe and Maggie Jones. The arresting
officer was CuIIen, and he testified to hear
ing a great racket in tbe house at 2 o'clock,
and that all were drunk except the woman.
John Smith and Maggie Jones are hus
band and wife, and both gave fictitious
names. They were fined by Mayor Pearson
$10 and costs each, while the other two men
were let off with a fine of $5 and costs each.
BEIGHT LIGHTS IH TOWN.
Delegates to tbe Electrical Convention Will
Inspect Oar Institutions The Results of
ibe Convention of Great Public BeacBt
With Regard ta Home Illouilnatlon.
A number of delegates to the National
Convention of Electricians, at Kansas City,
arrived in Pittsburg last night and were en
tertained by Morris Meade, Superintendent
of the Bureau of JEIectricity, of this city.
The following gentlemen, who are among
the shining lights in electrical circles, will
to-day inspect the police and fire alarm ap
paratus of this city and the Westinghonse
electric light plants: P. H. Alexander and
F. A. Wyman, of tbe Sawyer-Mann Com
pany, New York City; Captain William
Brophy.InspectorofElectricLightingofthe
New England States; D.Killicutt.Inspector
of Electrio Lines, Boston; D. H. Flanders,
Superintendent of Fire Alarm Telegraph of
Boston. These gentlemen will remain in
the city until to-morrow morning and will
be shown around by Mr. Mead.
Speaking of the late electrical convention,
Mr. Mead says mnch was accomplished
toward simplifying' and systematizing the
science of electricity. Measures were
adopted which will lead to the electric light
companies all over the country adopting a
uniform standard of voltage, so'that electric
railways may be supplied with power from
the light plants, three of the largest com
panies in the country having already signi
fied their intention of adopting the new sys
tem. A standard of insnlation of wires and of
laying them for interior lighting purposes
was also adopted, this being one
of the niost important results of
the convention. It is claimed that
the majority, in fact, nearly all, the
fires that occur from electric lights in houses
are the results of imperfect insulation and
improper lavincr of wires. This state of
things is to be entirely changed under the J
new arrangement, ana electric lights are to
be far the safest as tar as fires'are con
cerned. The convention recommended that a sys
tem of instruction, with licensed instructors,
men learned in the business of constructing
electric currents, be adopted and the system
taken in charge by the association. Plans
were adopted also to promote harmony be
tween the electric light companies and the
Fire Underwriters' Association. A com
mittee, representing all the States, was ap
pointed to watch legislation relating to elec
tricity and assist in enlightening the public
on the subject. A great many other meas
ures tending toward systematizing the busi
ness were adopted, and the convention ad
journed to meet at Cape May next August
. THE PEESESCE OF GOD.
A Selentlne Reasoning of the Subject by a4
Universalis!.
Bev. W. 8. Williams, pastor of Christ
Church, TJniversalist, last night changed
his topic from "Tick, Tick," to an address
on the presence of God, by request
of the members of bis congregation.
As he speaks extempore he had
no difficulty in giving an address
upon the subject desired. He denned the
presence of God from the standpoint of sci
entists, of the various religious denomina
tions and his own. From tbe one he placed
the Creator outside the world as an inde
pendent Being and a constructor of the
universe; from another he placed Him
as pervading all space and consequently
the work He had performed, both as regards
the human race and the globe itself. An
other theological definition of the presence
of God was that it dwelt in the human race
alone and the better instincts and principles
therein shown. Mr. Williams gave his idea
that the omnipresence of the godhead per
vaded all creation and was felt throughout.
At the conclusion of tbe services, Ber.
Mr. Williams gave certainly a lesson to
many ot the other denominations in hurry
ing to the door ot tbe TJ. V. L. Hall, where)
the sermon was given, and shaking hands
with each member of the congregation as
he or she left the hall. This was lully ap.
predated by those present.
MUSI0 IK THE SPHEBES,
Where Criminals Find Their Only Induce

Beligious services at the Jail yesterday
presented more 'attractive musical features
than those in many of the city churches.
The vocalists were Mrs. Frank Haslage,
the Misses George and Flowers and Messrs.
Harry Brockett, George and W. H. Brown,
George Letsche and Charles Heminghouse.
The services were conducted by Bev. E. B.
Donehoo. and Sheriff McCandless filled tha
position of organist.
As a conclusion to the services Mrs. Has
lage sang "Home, Sweet Home," with such
pathos that many of the prisoners were vis
ibly affected.

To the Public:
In response to the requests of many sol

When the Democratic Convention nomi
nated John H. Bailey, who dnring the war,
in public speeches, denounced the martyred
Lincoln as a horse, characterized the war
as a failure and called the Union soldiers
Lincoln hirelings, it became my duty to do
everything in my power to encompass his
defeat I therefore withdrew as a candi
date, and " will, in common with the other
Union soldiers of Pittsburg, cast my vote
for Henry L Gourley and against John H.
Bailey, the villifier of the martyred Lin
coln and the soldiers who risked their lives
for our glorions Union. Bespectfully,

In 35 Bays More the Government Building
Will be Under Cover.
Inspector Pattison said last night they
would begin the work of putting the roof on
the Government building this morning and
the job would be completed in 35 days. The
trouble has been so far that they hadn't
enough storage room, and the granite had to
be piled up promiscuously. Tbe stones
wanted were generally in the bottom, and
more time was lost in getting them out than
to set the pieces.
The Inspector still thinks tbe first floor
will be ready for the postoffice by October 1.
