BELGIMSfT IN IT,
A Syndicate's Offer to Import
1,000 Skilled Workmen
DECLINED WITH THAKKS.
The New Town of Charleroi Refuses
a Million Dollars.
ITS WORKS OPEN TO AMERICAKS
The report that a Belgian plate glass syn
dicate had received a big slice of stock in
Charleroi and would transfer its 1,000 em
ployes to America, thus evading the
stringent provisions of the contract labor
law, created considerable excitement in
labor and business circles yesterday. It
proves to be lacking the elements of truth,
except that such a deal was at one time very
seriously considered by the promoters or
Charleroi.
Mr. "W. D. Hartupee, consulting engineer
of the new plate glass scheme, was seen late
last night and consented to give the facts for
publication. He said: ""While we were form
ing our plans lor the building of Charleroi,
Pittsburg was visited by Mr. Franz Colna,
a member of the .New York firm of Lanier,
"Winslovr & Co. Mr. Colna was one of the
judges ol the glass exhibit at the 1878 Paris
Exposition. His credentials indicated that
he represented a syndicate of Belgian plate
glass manufacturers, and he visited the
Ford City works and endeavored to secure
an option on the controlling interest of that
enterprise.
UOT OPEN TO CONVICTION.
"The firm refused to entertain any propo
sition. He also visited the .Butler plate
glass works and endeavored to reach an un
derstanding in that quarter. "When he
came to us to negotiate he stated that he
had been instrncted to buy a plant or else
secure a site and proceed with the erection
of a large factory, the syndicate expressing
a desire to transfer its entire business to
"Western Pennsylvania, in order to secure
the advantages peculiai to this locality.
"He stated that the Belgians felt this
move to be imperative, not only because
thev were rapidly losing the most paying
market here in the United States, but be
cause natural gas enabled manufacturers
to make a really superior quality of glass.
"We really prefer the American work
man as compared to the Belgian, for a
Tariety of reasons. The plate glass busi
ness is not like the window glass trade.
The American workman is receptive, and
our expert foremen now under contract can
instruct any number oi men as to the skill
involved in the heating and polishing of the
material. Beside that, the American work
man becomes a citizen, and that counts in
the stability of the city we are building.
CAN GET THE BEST.
"There is another reason that justifies us
In depending upon Americans. "We shall
have the most improved, automatic
and labor-saving machinery, and will pay
the best wages. It is but reasonable to sup
pose tbat the best workmen now in America
will naturally be attracted to Charleroi. Oat
of the 1,200 men to be employed, only 300 or
so will be 'skilled laborers,' and we will
have no trouble in securin c the men need -d
without clashing with the contract labor
law.
The present adjustment of the tariff was
also a iactor against the foreign article, in
asmucli as American plate glass could un
dercut them in price and still have a mar
gin ot profit. The superior xlearness of
American glass had been counteracted in a
measure by the secret processes in grinding
and polishing possessed and used by the
foreigners, but when American ingenuity
penetrated the secrets the competition be
came too keen for comfort. All this was
not news to us who had been studying the
situation, but was pleasantly corroborative
of the conclusions we had formed in regard
to the expediency of Charleroi.
WANTED SOME OF THE STOCK.
"Mr. Colna offered, on behalf of the syn
dicate, to take $1,000 000 worth of stock in
Charleroi, and, as an extra inducement, said
he would transfer the entire working force
of five Belgian factories to our plant. He
argued tbat in this way we would be able to
evade the contract labor law. "We relused
the offer after deliberation.
"Mr. Coin . returned to New Tork and
sent several letters subsequently. His last
contained a proposition lor a site iu Char
leroi upon which another large factory could
be constructed. Our reply was not encour
agiog, and the matter hasbeen dropped, so
far as I know. I think we would hear of it
if the Belgian gentlemen formed any plans.
They may be moving iu some other direc
tion, but I hardly think it possible. It
would not change onr plans at all, and
Charleroi is going to be built as quickly as
plenty of money can do it. We have
enough capital to rub along without help
irom any source."
PROSPECTS OP CHARLEROI.
Sir. Crouse Snyi There Will be 3,000 Peo
ple There by Next November At Work
on the Glass Finn: Democrats Over
doing Things in Ohio.
Ex-Congressman George "W. Crouse, of
Akron, the President of the Charleroi Plate
Glass Company, arrived in the city last
evening and stopped at the Anderson. He
was met there by Manager M. J. Alexander
and W. D. Hartupee, the engineer who is
building the plant. They talked over the
prospects of the new town, and Mr. Crouse,
in speaking to a reporter afterward, said:
"We expect to have 5,000 people in Char
leroi about the time the next snow flies.
This is not to be a mushroom town, nor is it
a scheme gotten up for speculative purposes
to fleece the people. "We are going into the
plate glass business, and we have concluded
to locate there. "We also expect to induce
other manufacturers to join with us.
"The glass plant when finished will be
the finest built up to date. "We will put in
all the latest and most improved machinery.
For a time we propose to be ahead of every
body else, but I suppose it won't be long
before further marked improvements in the
process of manufacture will be made. In
that case we will adopt them and branch
out I am thoroughly convinced that Char
leroi will become a large town.
Well, now, asforOhio politics, the Demo
crats seem to be running things with a high
hand. The gerrymander bill was passed to
day, and I wonder what will be the next
move. There are 800,000 voters in Ohic,
and in both parties there is that independeut
element that controls elections. I am in
clined to believe that the Republicans have
more of this class than the Democrats.
The people won't stand too much fine
work, however, and I think the Democrats
have overstepped the mark. They will get
a merited rebuke at the polls. They now
have McKinley In a district with a Demo
cratic majority of 9,000 against him. But
terworth also is in a similar position."
Mr. Crouse is alto President of the Anlt-mau-Millcr
Company, of Akron. He says
there is a good demand for reapers and his
firm has plenty of orders on hand. Most of
his export trade is with Australia and South
America, but the home markets are good

SOME EXCITED BELGIANS.
Afraid They Have Been Deceived by nil
Ohio Land Compnny Tuo Property
Moncnerd for $125,000 It Slay Bring
SIOO.OOO.
There are quite a number of Belgian
glass workers on the Southside laboring
under the impression that they have been
fleeced by an Ohio land company. A few
weeks ago the Belgians gave a banauet on
the Southside. Among the guests was a
gentleman from Ohio who was introduced
as the manager of a manufacturing company
of Lancaster, O. He made an address dur
ing the evening and explained what his
company was about to do.
He advised the Belgians to invest in one
or more of the 1,000 lots which the company
had for sale. The prices ranged from f-50
to ?150 per lot, and the terms were made so
as to accommodate the workmen. He told
tne workers that the company intended to
establish a large glass manufacturing plant,
and would employ hundreds of workmen.
Before leaving" the city, the Ohioan had
sold several lots and, it is claimed, col
lected from $10 to S2o from each purchaser,
and secured Alfred George, Isaac Cline and
Gustave Quertemont to act as agents in
Pittsburg.
The agents went to work at selling the
lots, and induced many of the workers to
invest, with the understanding that the
new class plant should be in operation by
April L As an extra inducement, natural
gas was offered free to everyone that would
build a house on his lot.
A few days ago George Barbier, of the
Southside, met with a circumstance that led
bim to suspect something was wrong. He
had it in mind to purchase ten lots as an
investment, and wrote to the Ohio man to
find out what the lowest cash price for that
number of lots would be. .Not
receiving a reply in a reasonable
time, Mr. Barbier consulted Arnold
Schneider, the Consular agent of Belgium,
about the matter. Mr. Schneider advised
Mr. Barbier not to do anything for a few
days, and immediately directed a letter to
Governor Campbell, of Ohio, asking bim for
information as to the standing of the com
pany. Governor Campbell replied that the corn
had their property mortgaged for $125,000,
and that it they sold their entire plot of
ground, 1,000 lots', at an average of 100
each, they would only realize $100,000.
This cave Southsiders still greater reasons
to suppose that something was wrong.
Thev figured that if the company could get
but $100,000 with which to pay off a $125,000
mortgage and erect a glass plant, there
would not be very bright prospects for the
plant.
Mr. Schneider has instrncted all Belgians
to refrain from purchasing any more of the
lots pending an investigation of the matter
by himself.
K0T GONE LONG FROM H0JIB.
John Dell and Mrs. La Delia Brought Back
From Toledo.
Detective Buffalo, of the Second Police
district, returned yesterday morning from
Toledo, O., bringing with him John Dell
and Mrs. Bosa La Bella. The man and
woman are accused of having absconded
from East Liberty last Saturday, the woman
taking with her about $S00 in money, which
she is said to have stolen from two Italians
named Pietro Carsale and Castillo de
Angelis. The woman has a husband in the
East End, who put the police upon her
track. AH the parties, except Dell, are
Italians. The woman is onlv 35 years old,
very comely, and remarkably neat and
clean in appearance. The eloping pair were
arrested Tuesday evening at Toledo, on a
telecram, and the same night Detective
Buffalo left here for that city.
Dell and Mrs. La Bella were arraicned
yesterday afternoon before Alderman Hynd
man, in the Nineteenth ward. Two charges
of larceny were made against each ol them
by Carsale and Angelis, while Detective
Buffalo, for the deserted husband, made the
complaints for breach of morality. The ac
cused were held in bail of $1,300 each for
trial at the present term of court. They
were taken to the jail last evening.
A FAMIMAE HGOEE GONE.
Stokes Bailey Carried 00" by HU Long
Standing Trouble, Consumption.
The announcement yesterday of the death
of Edward Bailey, known about town as
"Stokes," caused much expression of sorrow
about the Citr Hall, where the deceased
was, for 15 years, the most familiar figure.
He died at the Poor Farm, at 11:35 o'clock
Thursday night, of consumption. He was
born on the Southside 39 years ago. In the
Byers mill he received an injury to bis
spine, which disabled him for hard work,
and ultimately reduced him to a skeleton.
He was. last fall, employed at the Casino
Museum as a "living skeleton." He was G
feet tall and weighed only 80 pounds.
For over a year Bailey has been several
times laid up for a month or more at a time.
He was employed at odd jobs about City
Hall, and his friends secured frequent
service for him as a juror. His mother lives
on the Southside.
COFFEE JAKE LOSES HIS COENEE.
A Valuable Stand Rented to Colonel Flinn's

Philip S. Flinn, who was until about
three months ago Assistant Superintendent
of the Bnreau of Highways, has leased, at
$1,200 a year, the restaurant in the market
house which has been occupied for 18 years
by Stanislaus Zocb & Co. Mr. Zoch is well
known as "Coffee Jake." He has conducted
a cheap place, selling- clean and good food
at a low figure, and thus attracting a good
trade. It is said that he has made $150,000
at the business. He failed to renew his
lease until last "Wednesday, when be found
that Chief Bigelow had rented to Mr. Flinn,
the lease beginning April 1.
Mr. Fiinn will sublet the place, which

THE
THE MILLS TO CLOSE.
A Critical Point Reached in the Late
Erie Switchmen's Strite.
DINKIES WILL NOT GO ON THE ROAD.
Cake Officially Declines the Nomination for
President.
AN ABUNDANCE OF LITE LABOR NEWS
Unless something is done by the officials
of the Pittsburg and Lake Erie road to-day,
a number of the iron and steel mills along
the line of the road on the Southside will
have to shut down on Monday. It was given
out in all of Oliver's mills yesterday that,
unless the strike was ended to-day, the com
pany would have to close down. They are
now suffering for material, but will try to
run through to-day. The strike has now
reached the point when it is a matter of
alarm. Jones & Laughlin's, the Bepublic
Ironworks, Dilworth, Porter & Co., and
other mills may all have to close down. If
this is done several thousand men will be
thrqwn ont of work.
In Oliver's Tenth street mill yesterday,
the supply of material was so short that the
officials became desparate. They have
dozens of cars loaded with stuff for their
mills lying between the mill and Charticrs
yard. "When they asked the railroad com
pany to put the car3 on their sidings, they
were told it could not be done.
THE DINKEY WOULD NOT GO.
They then pleaded with the crew of their
own "dinkey" engine to go to Chartiers and
bring up their cars. The men refused to do
this, claiming that the strikers would repel
any interference with that part of the busi
ness. The firm also has a laree number of cars
lying at the mills loaded with finished
product which they cannot get out. The
consignees are clamoring for the staff, but
there is no way of getting it to them. Jones
& Laughlin's are in about the same fix.
Thev have dozens of cars for which they
would pay any price to have moved. The
Bepublic Iron Company are also in despair
at their inability to get cars from the rail
road. The mills below the Southside depot also
suffer to a certain extent, but they are not so
badly crippled as the others. They
have Panhandle counections by
which they can get stuff out,
but the Panhandle engines cannot
go into the Chartiers and Pittsburg yards
and drill out Lake Erie cars. There were
only two crews at work in the Pittsburg
yards yesterday. On Thursday there was
but one, and the officials were congratulat
ing themselves that they had secured two.
By to-day they hope to have another engine
out and to-morrow may have four crews at
work. They got a number of men on
Thursday, but what became of them nobody
could find out.
GOBBLED BY STRIKERS.
It was freely rumored that as soon as the
company gets a man the strikers win him
over to their side. In regard to the situa
tion one of the officials said yesterday:
"Our through freightand passenger trains
are moving all right, but it is simply im
possible to reach any of the local mills. The
owners understand just how we are situated,
and thev are not crowding us. Onr cars are
tied up on sidings, and we can't move them.
The switching is a dangerous business, and
we need trained men to do the work. The
worst of it is that the pesky little strike is
cutting heavily into the revenues of the
rpad.'"
A visit to the Chartiers yard last night
found everything quiet. The strikers seem
to have deserted the place, but when a new
man shows up they apparently do business
with him. It is reported the men at Youngs
town threaten to strike unless the trains are
made up in Chartiers in better Bhape. The
strikers here are confident.of success.
THE CANDIDATES ANNOUNCED.
Six of Them Willing to Accept the Presi
dency of It. A. 300 Bound to be a Lively
Contest Workers Wanted In the East
Some Flying Rninors.
There can be no further guessing as to who
the candidates are for the Presidency of the
"Window Glass "Workers' Association. The
committee appointed to visit the nominees
reported at the regular meeting of L. A. 300
last evening and presented the list of
those who'will battle for the honors of the
office and the $1,500 which it pays. The
candidates are Patrick Clarey and John P.
Eberhart, Pittsburg cutters; "William A.
"Wallace, of New Jersey: L. C. Haler and
John G. Schlicker, of Pittsburgh blowers;
Simon Burns, of Bock Island, III., gath
erer. The names ot Wallace and bchlicker
are new ones.
As stated a few days ago in The Dis
patch, Secretary Cake is not a candidate.
He addressed a very neat letter of declina
tion to the Assembly last night, thanking
bis friends for the honor of the nomination
and stating his reasons for not accepting,
which were practically the same as those
already stated in these columns. Ex-Presi
dent Campbell and Treasurer Al. Hammett
also clung to their original statement tbat
they would not be candidates.
anybody's fight sow.
At present it is anybody's fight It will
be one ot the hottest contests in the history
of the association. To many, Eberhart ap
pears to be in the lead, with Clarey a dan
gerous second. It is known that ex-President
Campbell favors Mr. Eberhart
and all sorts of combinations are be
ing formed, both in the East and "West,
as well as in Pittsburg, to defeat him. "Wal
lace, the New Jersey man, was put up at the
last hour for that purpose. Mr. Burns, the
"Western man, is expected to carry the pre
ceptories in his district. In Pittsburg Eber
hart will be opposed by Clarey and Haler,
who are working together. Whichever of
these is defeated on the first ballot is to
work for the other on the second.
The voting sheets will be sent to the pre
ceptories on Monday, March 17, and they
will be returned on April 5. The result of
the first ballot will not be known until
April 11.
GETTING ABOUND THE LAW.
It is rumored that President Bodiue, of
the National Window Glass Manufacturers'
Association, who has just started his tank
lactory at Bridgcton, N. J., has written to
President Campbell in regard to furnishing
men for the tank. In his application he
hinted that he would like the same privi
lege of getting men that was said to have
been given Chambers & McKee. It is also
said that a number of members advocated
the ideaof opening the gates and allowing
foreigners to take the positions. They
stated that the men could be brought over
without violating the letter of the law.
Beports about the different candidates for
President are flying thick and fast. One of
the statements is to the effect that a certain
candidate worked as a salesman in Gusky's
during the summer shutdown. Last sum
mer when his factory closed down he applied
for a position. The members of L. A. 4907
oljected to the man, claiming that he would
keep a regular salesman out of uork, and
upon a threat to strike he was not hired.

a gas and a coal company, forming the
nucleus" of an organization representing
$150,000 have for some time past been
endeavoring to fix upon a site for the loca
tion of an iron mill. They intend to make

BOLT MAKERS STRIKE.
Soutbsldo Workers Go Out Because of the
DUchnrce of Co-Laborers.
Seventy-five bolt makers and as many
boys employed in the Oliver Iron and Steel
Company 's South Tenth street mill went
out on a strike yesterday morning. The
trouble leading to the strike has been brew
ing for several weeks. It is claimed by the
men that the foreman of the department,
John Auker, commenced a systematic dis
charge of men employed in the department,
with a view to filling their places with boys
as fast as competentlads could be secured
to do the work.
It is said several men were discharged
without any apparent cause. The Mill
Committee of the Amalgamated Associa
tion took the matter in band and a consul
tation was held with the foreman, and he
was asked to take back the discharged
employes. This he refused to do. Several
attempts were madeto induce Mr. Auker to
yield, but without avail. The last meeting
with the foreman resulted in the discharge
of two members of the Mill Committeejon
Thursday morning. Yesterday morning he
was asked to reinstate the men and when be
refused the men went out.
NO SHUTDOWN HERE.
A Telesrnm From Clcvclnnd Says All the
Wiro mills Will Close Monday.
A telegram was received in this city last
night to the effect that all the wire mills
throughout the country will close on Mon
day for two weeks, in order to reduce the
supply of wire in the market.
A call was made at the residence of Mr.
Henry Roberts, of the Oliver and Koberts
Wire Company. One of the gentlemen in
terested in the firm said: "The report is in
correct as far as our company is concerned.
We will not close our mill on Monday, and
do not think any other manufacturers will.
It such action is to be taken we have no
knowledge ot it."
No Gas on a Cold Day.
Whatever the cause, there was very little
natural gas circulating in any portion of the
city yesterday. Quite a number of business
houses had none, and insufficient gas was
the cause of qnite a number of elevators not
running and reports of "no gas" came from
all portions ot the city and suburbs.
WITH HIM EVERY HOUR.
Mayor-Elect Wyman's Pleasant Time With
Office .Seekers No Appointments De
cided Upon Yet illnrpby Likely to be
Chief of Police.
Mayor-elect Wyman was seen at his home
on McClintock street, last night, surrounded
bya gathering of chosen friends and admir
ers who had dropped in to inqnire as to the
health of their leader, which has, as is well
known, been very baa for some time.
Happily he is now convalescent and able to
give the matters attendant on his coming
induction into office more attention than
formerly.
As may be surmised this is the period of
the successful candidate's existence, when,
whether he wants to or no, his friends, who
have "stood by him through thick and thin"
will insist that he give their multitudinous
claims considerable attention. Mr. Wy
man's case is no exception to the rule, and
he freely states tbat, notwithstanding the
fact that he has for the past two weeks been
bedfast with a serious attack ot lum
bago, bis house has been continually bese
with parties not individuals averaging
from 15 to 20 per hour every day. How
ever, according to his own statement, he has
as yet come to noconclnsion in a single case,
although at least 100 positions are at his dis
posal, nor will he until he returns from a
trip to Boston, his native place, which he
contemplates making as soon as his health
will permit.
An attempt was made to get some slight in
formation as to his intentions so far as the ap
pointment of a Chief of Police isconcerned,
as it had beeu reported that the arrange
ments as to that position were in a more ad
vanced stage than any of the others, but
Mr. Wyman was non-committal. From
another and a reliable source it was learned
that ot all the candidates mentioned only
two, Murphy and Langhurst, were in the
fieht at all, and of these, the first named
stood the best chance; in fact, there was but
little doubt that he would be the man.
Quite a number ot petitions have been
received, but not nearly as many as were
expected. So far the personal call idea
seems to be the prevailing fashion among
the candidates.
PURSUING HIS OLD ENEMY.
George Rice Still in tbo Ring Asuinst tho
Standard Oil Compnny.
Big George Bice, of Marietta, the famous
fighter of the Standard Oil Company, who
now has several suits against railroads be
fore the Inter-State Commission for unjnst
discrimination in rates, is at the Anderson
Hotel. Franklin B. Gowen was pushing
his snit against the octopus when he com
mitted suicide.
In chatting about the event last evening
Mr. Bice said: "I can't account for Mr.
Gowen's action, unless it was disappointed
ambition. I was with him for several days
before he shot himself, and be seemed to be
his natural self.
"Yes, I am still keeping up the fight
against the Standard. L don't propose to
be trampled under foot if by fighting I can
prevent it. They have nearly ruined my
business by getting the advantage of low
rates from the railroads, while the same
roads have pushed the tariff up on my pro
duct 160 per cent. Of course I couldn't
stand such a dose and live very long. I
don't see why the inter-State law is not en
forced. I think if the tenth section of the
law were changed so that the Cues
went to the plaintiff instead of the
Goverment it would stop the practice of
discrimination. The Standard makes oil
tank cars, and secures a better rate than I do
because I can't afford to build them, and the
railroads decline to famish them for me.
The barrel shippers are crowded to the wall.
"I hear it said sometimes that the
Standard has made oil cheap. This is not
true. It is competition and increased pro
duction. Why down in Texas where there
isn't much rivalry the profits in oil are
much higher than in other States. If the
Standard had complete control of the entire
oil trade they would soon advance the
price."

AN INDUCTION REMEDY TO COST $13,000
The Central District and Printing Tele
graph Company and the Second Avenue
Electric Bailway Company are about to lock
horns. It is possible that the former com
pany will go into court on Monday and ask
for an injunction to restrain the railway
company from operating its line. If this is
done and the injunction is granted the trac
tion cars will be stopped until the trouble is
settled. This will be a great inconvenience
to the many people living along the line
who have come to look upon the cars as a
luxury. The cause of the quarrel is on ac
count of the induction to the telephone lines
by the electric trolley wires.
In October last, when the telephone com
pany learned that the railway line intended
to use a single trolley wire with the earth
for a return current, they served notice that
they would hold the railway company re
sponsible for any damage that might arise
to their lines. By reason of their using a
return wire placed in the earth a buzzing
sound was caused on the telephone lines.
DECIDEDLY ANNOYING.
This became so annoying that all the tel
ephones on both sides of the Monongahela
river were rendered useless. All the tele
phone lines between this city and Union
town cross the Sixteenth street bridge, and
they get the induction on this end of Second
avenue. On this side of the river the tele
phone lines run as far as McKeesport and
on the other side to Uniontown.
In conversation with Mr. Metzgar, tren
eral manager of the telephone company,
yesterday that gentleman stated that they
expected the electric railway company to
remedy the trouble. If they did not do so,
he would go into court Monday and ask for
an injunction to restrain the company from
operating the line. In regard to the matter
Mr. Metzgar said:
"We have been in business along that
thoroughfare for ten years supplying manu
facturers and others with a telephone
service. The lines have always
worked satisfactorily until the elec
tric cars began running. This was
almost a week ago, and our lines now are
practically useless. When the railway was
pnt into operation the company said they
would decide what they would do this week.
In the meantime, our patrons have to suffer.
"All the telephone lines running along
the Monongahela river are affected. The
distance to McKeesport is about 15 miles,
and to Uniontown about 77 miles. The
only way lor them to remedy the trouble is
to make each circuit a double wire, or run
one heavy wire the whole length of our
telephone lines. This work would cost
about $150 per mile or about 510,000 lor the
entire line. The telephone lines wouid be
grounded on the big wire instead ot in the
earth as at present.
AN EXPENSIVE REMEDY.
"We are still waiting to see what they
propose to do, but cannot wait much longer.
If we do not get an answer bv Monday we
will enter a law suit against the company.
We have 75 wires to their one along Second
avenue, and do not propose to have our
property injured. At present we are trying
to give our patrons between this city and
Gleenwood temporary relief.
"The compan y uses the Thomson-Houston
system, and if they used a double trolley
wire, there would be no trouble. With
the Pleasant Valley Company it was differ
ent. All the wires we had running that
way were short wires and were not effected
ta any extent. If the Second avenne line
had their wires evenly balanced, that is,
have one run from the negative and the
other the positive side of the dynamo, there
would be no trouble.
"What they will do I have not yet heard.
They have a disturbing element there and
in equity they mut carry on their business
so as not to injure us. We have no exclus
ive right to Second avenue, but we have the
right of protecting our property. The rail
way company has been given the right to
run their cars along the street, but they
must not do so to the detriment of some
other person's business."
An attempt was made to see Manager
Burns, of thp Electric Company, but he was
not in his office and therefore could not be
interviewed Jon the other side of the question.

NOT ENTIRELY WITHOUT ICE.
The Frozen North nnd the Artificial Maker
Will Not Ilnve It All Their Own War
Warmer Weather and Raia Predicted
lorTo-Dny.
After all, Pittsburg may not be compelled
to submit to magnetizing by Maine, for be
fore suudown this evening it will be possible
to have 250,000 tons of ice stored in this
neighborhood. It comes in time to prevent
considerable monopoly, and every ton put
up at home saves from $1 25 to $1 50 in
freight.
Beports s to thickness vary from 4 to 10
inches, and as that cut on Lake Chautauqua
yesjerday was reported to be but 9 inches
thick, it is likely that ours isn't much over
6. That at Chautauqua is very cold cold
expressed the kind that cracks with glee
while it is freezing, and ours will not he far
behind, as the freeze has been remarkably
steady since it began. For several hundred
miles in this latitude the weather has been
verv cold, ice freezing in water pitchers
'even iu rooms with fire in them, the first
record of this Kind this winter.
Yesterday icemen who had been consult
ing Signal Service views as to the probable
duration of the freeze decided to wait no
longer, and work was in consequence lively
at Brace's pond on Squirrel Hill, Finley's
at Boulevard Place and at the ponds around
McKee's Bocks and up Pine creek. In ad
dition to this large quantities were housed
for general cooling purposes other than
table use, and where cleanliness is not so
much of an object, so that should a sudden
th;iw come even to-day, the supply of local
product will be snehtbata little aid from
the artificial freezers will tide us over in
good shape.
The Signal Service thermometer showed
the greatest cold to have been 5 above
zero. This was at 7 o'clock yesterday morn
ing. Bain is predicted for to-day or to-morrow,
and if it bring all thesnow on the west
ern slope of the Allegheny and her flanking
ridges, the river channel may be taxed to
carry the resultant water.

Typhoid Fever End the Life of Lemuel
Sncli, of Elk County.
Lemuel Such, a convict in the Biverside
Penitentiary, died at 3:20 yesterday after
noon. Coroner McDowell was notified, and
held an inquest. It was developed that
Such had been suffering from typhoid fever
which caused a hemorrhage of the stomach,
resulting in his death, and a verdict was
rendered accordingly. Such was 25 years
of age, and was sent from Elk county May
31, 1?S8, to serve a four years' sentence for
horse stealing.

Seating a Boy.
James John, James Lahloon, Salem
Babbid and Monson Charles, from Arabia,
were arrested by Officer Cross, last night, in
a 10 by 12 foot room in Basin alley, near
Washington street, and lodged In the
Eleventh ward station on two charges,of dis
orderly conduct and cruelty to children. It
is alleged by the officer that the prisoners
are peddlers, and they have a boy aged li
vears who also peddles, nnd because he re
turned home last night unable to, turn over
any cash from his sales made yesterday,
they all took a hand in punishing him.
The Arabs were throwing the boy up to
the ceiling and then catching him as he
came down. Several times the boy's head
struck the floor, cutting a gash about two
inches lonz. Hii right shoulder was also
iniured. Shortly after the officer entered
and stopped the aflair, the boy becamenn-
conscious. ie was removea 10 me suuuu,
and a nhvsician called in who put several
stiches in his head. He gave the name of
Anthony Thomas. The case will be turueu
