THE PITTSBTJKa DISPATCH; FRIDAY, KAEOH 21, IS90. TO.GETGOODfiOADS. Dr. W. H. McCullough Proposes a Scheme He is Sure Would Work. (MGEESS MIGHT BE REQUESTED Kot to Abolish Internal Eevenue Tax On Whisky and Tobacco. THE STATES CODLD USE THAT MOSEI Hon. W. H. McCullough, of Tarentum, a member of the State Commission on the Im provement of Country Roads, has received a letter from the Secretary of the commission, Charles Ettla, of Philadelphia. The body was to haTe met yesterday, but Mr. Ettla states that the work of codifying the laws of the State on roads has not yet been com pleted. As there are hundreds and hundreds of these enactments on the statute books, this job took a much longer time than was expected. They will be printed in pamphlet form, and as soon as this is out of press, Mr. Ettla says, the commission will be called to gether at Philadelphia. Arrangements will then be made to take evidence and re ceive suggestions from officials and citizens of the different sections of the State. Dr. McCullough has originated an idea as -io the revenue for this proposed improve ment of public highways. It is that the Legislature be requested to petition Congress for a retention of the tax on whisky and tobacco, and that the proceeds, instead of Roing into the TrcasuryVsurplus.be divided among the various States. SOCKCES OF REVENUE. Dr. McCullough has figured out that the State of Pennsylvania would be entitled to - a twelfth interest in this divy, or about $3,000,000. The Doctor said when inter--viewed by a Dispatch reporter: " "After" the commission recommends to the Legislature an expenditure of over 51,000,000 in beginning these grand improve ments, then the Legislature will have to ask, "Where will this money come from? Reve nues will have to be raised from some new quarter, and I think that if we could prevail on the United States Government to give us 55,000,000 forrebuilding our roads it would be a big thing. I think the proposition would be popular at Washington, because it would offer every State in the Union an opportu nity to easily solve the road question, and, of course, all States being interested, such a measure ought to enlist the sympathy of members of Congress generally." Mr. McCullough was asked how the State Commission would meet the request from a large farming element that city taxpayers should be made stand a share of the cost of this road improvement Some fjrmersclaim that, although they now pay the taxes for rural roads, the corporations of a city get the benefit of the roads, such as an oil com pany of Pittsburg operating in "Washington or Butler counties, and hauling their der rick rigging and timbers out over the road ways, well liigh ruining them. Ke replied: SOME OBJECTIONS MET. "Well, of course, when the State appro priates an amount annually out of the pub lic treasury for the improvement of the roads, the iarmer must remember that that monev was put in the State Treasury by city corporations, too. In this wav will the ex pense of road building be equally borne. "The commission will also meet the ob jection of many farmers that the land owner along a main road should pay more tax than the farmer along a smaller interior road. This will be done in this way: Sup pose roads were divided into three classes State, county and township. "Well, the S'ate appropriation would be devoted to the State roads, while a large proportion of the taxes which the farmer would still have to pay would go to keeping up the county and townshiD roads. That would give decidedly more monev to the maintenance of the smaller roads than they now get, the man residing along the State road being made to contribute his share to keeping up a good interior road for the small farmer, and thus helping to increase the value of the small farm." The State Commission now being so near the time when they will hear evidence as to the condition of the roads, and the sugges tions for the improvement of the same, there will be probably some move in Alleghenv county toward acting upon the recent rec ommendation made by County Engineer Davis, in his last annual report, that the County Commissioners appoint representa tives to appear before the State Commission on this very subject Mr. Davis says there is no part of the public works in this county which is further behind in its progress than the maintenance of rural roads, and with one exception, that of Leet township, the roads of Allegheny county are as bad as can be found in any part of Pennsylvania. IX DLFE-VSE OF FOErUGAL. An Appeal to Portucucsc Residents in This Country to Contribute. rSrECIJU. TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCrM IfEW Yoek, March 20. This advertise ment appeared to-day: "Notice is hereby given to all Portuguese residents in the "United States, and especially to those in 2Cew York, that the Portuguese Govern ment, by act of February 10 last, has or ganized a national fund to provide for the defense of the country, and that any spon taneous contributions from the Portuguese subjects abroad will be welcome." The officials at the consulate apparently knew little about it, but T. DeSouza Eosa, Portu guese Minister to "Washington, who is in town at the Brunswick Hotel, said: There is nothing official in this, and it is no part of the policy of the Portuguese Govern ment when the excitement at Lisbon was at its height over the country's relations with England the citizens voluntarily started a na tional defence fund. The municipality of Lis bon voted about S1.000, and several rich men swelled the fund at once to $100,000. Popnlar subscriptions were solicited at tho ame time, and before the hrst day's work was over the fund amounted to more than 000,000. How much has been subscribed since I dJ not know. The fund is in the hands ot a committee of citi zens, and it will be turned over to the Govern ment when it is believed to be complete. This advertisement was undoubtedly inserted by private individuals. If Portuguese residents desire to contribute to the fund they can do so throuch the Consul General, Baras D'Almsi rim, who will forward the money to the Lisbon committee. A EA1LK0AD WAJiTS 1I0XET.

The coke trade is again up to a high standard of excellence, but it cannot be said to be booming. Con sumptive requirements are quite good at present as shipments for last week will indi cate. ' The coke operators have apparently perfect confidence in the future coke market, or they would not contemplate the erection of so many new ovens. The lugrubrious utterances of some people, that the coko trade would gradually sink, and that many of the plants would have to cloe down on account of lack of orders, has not been verified, and to-day there is really not one plant in the region idle save where they need repairing. The shrinkage in coke shipments noted In oar last report was entirely duo to scarcity of cars caused by blockades on the Eastern and Western lines. The Eastern trade is still suf fenng slightly from blockades. Production is still being limited to the demand, and nearly all of the works in the region aro running but five davs this week, which henceforth will be the mle until trade warrants six days. There is a fair sunnly of cars again, which enables operators to fill orders. jro EFrECT on inc market. Tho report in yesterday's Dispatch that Eastern capitalists purchased 2,000 acres of coal land in Somerset county is causing considera ble comment in coko circles. It is the inten tion of the purchasers to develop tho field im mediately by the erection of new ovens, but it will have no telling effect on tho Connellsville coke marker. Possibly it may be the intentions of the company to consume the output in their own manufacturing plants. Shipments for last week give a total of 6.S60 cars, and an average of about 1,130 cars per day. The shipments for the previous week averaged over 9CI cars per day. The shipments for last week were distributed as follows: To points west of Pittsburg, 3,525 car, an increase of 400 cars; to points east of Pittsburg, 1,500 cars, an increase of 200 cars; to Pittsburg and river points, 1,625 cars. The shipments for the preceding week givc3 a total of 5,785 cars and were consigned thus: To points west of Pitts burg, 3,425 cars: to points cast of Pittsburc, 1,10'J cars: to Pittsburg and river points, 1,260 cars. The region will not soon experience a crisis similar to the car famine which overtook them tho latter part of last j ear when trade was so brisk. Kainey, Frick & McClure and other companies hare large numbers of individual cars, which will very materially aid their trans portation facilities. immovements and prices. It is reported that the Pennsylvania Mining and Manufacturing Company have dampened the anchor works near Dunbar for a short time. It is a plant of 100 ovens and has been selling its output to the J. M. Schoonmaker Company. Compressed air pumps ara beine erected in several of the pits of the region. The Mahoning plant of 100 ovens is still idle. Work is progressing en the McClnre's new plant of 100 ovensat Maytield. The same com pany will erect 300 new ovens at Lemont on tho Colonel Evans tract Prices for coke are nominally the same and with no signs of a change. They aro: ijurnaco coke, SI 75; foundry coke, S2 45; crushed coke, J2 Gj; at ovens per ton of 2,000 pounds.
