MOTHER WHOLESALERS' DAI The court again switched off yesterday and indulged in a little more wholesale business. The Twenty-sixth ward was taken up, furnishing eight applications, as fol lows: Charles B. Dietz, 2fo. 1919 Jane street; William I)iven, No. 1733 Carson street; John O'Connor, No. 1814 Carson street; John Sell, Xo. 156 Eichteenth street; Henry Strauch, No. 2001 Carson street; John Schwarz, No. 129 Seventeenth street; M. "Winter & Bros., brewers, No. 2022 Jose phine street, and "William F. Zoeller, No. 1807 Carson street. Dietz is by trade a molder, suffered a rupture and went to saloonkeeping. For some time the Humboldt Dramatic and Lit erary Association met at his house and drank beer. Dietz sold on Sunday in 18S7. Diven is a beer bottler in the Sixth ward, and wants a general wholesale license. He sold on " Sunday in 1887. O'Connor has a wholesale house. He admitted 'sales of pints and half pints on doctors' orders. Judge Ewing told him that such sales were in clear violation of the law, and he expressed surprise that a man like Mr. O'Connor should do such a busi ness. Sell wishes to combine liqnor with his grocery trade, which has recently been bad. Against Strauch, who was never in in the liquor trade, Harvey Chess and other neighbors, filed a remonstrance. In 1888, when relused a retail license, Strauch posted in tbe window of his bakery the names of tbepeotiiewho had remonstrated against him. As be was naturalized in October, 1887, Judge Ewing said: "You exhibited characteristic modesty by thus posting the names of old citizens." Strauch could not see that his act was wrong. Judge Magee said it was vindictive and vicious. "It is a want of moral sense," said Judge Ewing. KEMEI5E1IEED TOO LATE. "A year ago," said Judge Magee, "a man down "on Sixth street posted Judge White's name in his window. And by the way, I don't know whether he cot a license this year or not. I lorgot all about it until this minute." The hero of the episode referred to, who attracted much attention a year ago, has been this year granted a license in the Twelfth ward. He is an old soldier. Schwarz is a grocer and on the speak-easy list He gets beer, he says, for private use only. Winter & Bros, did a business last year of $240,000. Zoeller's wholesale trade was $23,000. There were 11 applications, all by Ger mans, from the Twenty-seventh ward, on the hill: Wendel Daub, Mt.

Nusser, Manor street, at the bead of South Twelfth; Jacob Scherrer, No. 219 Washing ton avenue; John G. Shademan, No. 2318 Josephine street; John Wylrnd, No. 22 Kosciusko street. Daub, in 1SS7, was convicted for Sunday selling. He is on the speak-easy list, but averred his total inability to explain how that occurred. Judge Ewing thought he could explain, but he simply smiled at the witness and called lor "next." Embs and Hock have both-been in the saloon business, and Hock is on the speak-easy list. "Mis take, Judge," he said; "mistake." Mrs. Klein keeps a candy store, two boarders, and three children. Her husband presided be hind a bar before he was called away from this wicked world.

Nasser has sold 6,000 barrels of beer during a year. He has three licensed saloons, 700 people who receive an eighth a week and several who get two eighths. Scherrer is a double-header, having been re fused a retail license. Schademan expects to raise money on his wife's properly. This is a method ot raising the wind which Judge Ewing does not at all approve. Wyland wants a bottlers' license, He expects to work up a trade among the Poles. There were 1C applicatious from the Twenty-eighth ward, as follows: Anthony J. Auen, No. 10 South Diamond; Peter J.

Peter Auen said his year's trade was 30,000. Judge Ewing said: "The Criminal Conrt has shown us that, had the officers of the law done their duty, you would have been prosecuted in several cases." TIRED OF HIS TBADE. ' Donahue is a nailer for Chess, Cook & Co., and was born in Allegheny county. He is a brother-in-law of Bichard Bennett, of Bennett Bros., wholesalers.

He is on the speak easy list The jug business, he said, was dying out Kiphen, an ex-saloon keeper, denied the speak-easy charge. Attorney Christy asked that the case be held open until he could get witnesses against the applicant Sub poenas were issued and the court took a recess until 1:30 p. 21. After dinner Charles H. Lenk was called. Callahan and Kennedy have been granted retail licenses and have no interest in the wholesale cases.

Walkosky is a Polish He brew who said that he came to the United States in 1884 and was naturalized Septem ber 19, 1888. This short-term naturaliza tion rather surprised the court, and when MJfcTifaifl '' T11 -iiiftAr i -' it 1 iii rmiiiil'ifiit'iy iilfAiTiTlitiii&ri Walkosky saw that he had made a mistake he began to protest that he might be mis taken. Judge Ewing told him to bring in his papers. Weisberger is collector for the Iron Citv Brewing Compauy, and formerly kept saloon. His partner, Schlanger, is traveling drummer for the same company. WADED INTO THEM. Attorney Christy waded into the two gen tlemen with a flood of questions without getting very satisfactory replies. It was shown that advertisements had been in serted in Hungarian papers in behalf of the Iron City Brewing Company, directing those who wished to buy beer to write to Weisberger, No. 17 Diamond street, or Schlanger, No. 49 Third avenue. Christy asked if Schlanger had not gone to New York to escape arrest in Westmoreland countv. The applicant said he had gone to New York for five months, but denied that an arrest had been threatened. The Twenty-ninth ward has but fire ap plicants: Lewis W. Bender, No. 801 Car son street; George Laur, No. 621 Carson street; George Schwarfzel, No. 74 Twelfth street; F. W. Spreen, No. 701 Carson street, and Charles A. Weisberg, No. 1003 Carson street Laur is a brother of the brewers in the Twenty-seventh ward, and is a double header. Weisberg is an ex-saloon keeper who had a wholesale license in 1887, but denied that he sold any at retail. He is the first applicant who made such a statement. The Thirtieth ward had 13 applicants. Charles J. Alwes, No. 18 Carson street granted a retail license; John W. Painter and James G. Pontefract doing business under the name of Jos. S.

Gallagher is down as a speak-easy. Patrick and James Lyons are brothers, and James is on the same list with Gallagher. Milligan is the gentleman who keeps a wholesale house opposite the Panhandle depot, and who received such a severe scoring during the retail hearings be cause he sold liquors by the drink. Splane was sick and could not come. Alwes and Soffel naturally did not appear. Trapp has a wholesale license and his trade has been mostly in bottles and jugs. He said he had not sold a whole barrel dur ing the year. Ward and Waggoner are ex saloon keepers. Mr. Christy tried to show oy w 1111am Lippincott tnat Waggoner gets drunk, but the witness would not make good the claim.

Kramer applied for both wholesale and bottler's license, and withdrew the wholesale. XOT ENTITLED TO ONE. The case of Fred W. Kiphen, Twenty eighth ward, was then called up by Mr. Christy, who had two witnesses present Attorney Morton Hunter said: "If the Court please, I guess we will admit that we are not entitled to a license and will with draw the application." Shultis is a drummer for Bobitzer, the wholesale liquor dealer. He wants to start up for himself on the hill, in order to save rent He has 3,000 worth of whi6ey in bond.

Carlin is licensed to retail and Gilroy did not answer. Obernauer was formerly in the liquor business with a brother on Fifth avenue. Sullivan is a son-in-law to Mrs. Maria Fleming, who keeps a speak-easy. "This," said Judge Ewing, "is an out rageous attempt to practice fraud on the court The son applies for a retail license and the son-in-law for wholesale. Call the next." Attorney Brennen tried to-explain and palliate, but the court would not listen. Mrs. Wagner was granted retail license. The last ward in Pittsburg, ths Thirty sixth, had four applicants: William O. Gundelfioger, No. 158 Steuben street, nor licensed; Morris Gibankv, granted retail license; Henry J. Oberhelman, Nos. 142 and 144 Wabash avenue; and Fritz Schin neller.

Many Called to be Pastors, Among Them ire Many Licentiates. INFIDELITY IS A"0 ON THE INCfiEASE Papers are constantly being read before associations of ministers, and lectures from the pews are being delivered as constantly on "How to Give Life to a Church," but Church Work pithily expresses some of the actions of those who are doing the very op posite in striving "How to Kill a Parish." In order to do this it says: Absent yourself from the Sunday evening services. It takes a very dull or careless minister to stand up against empty pews. Stay at home whenever it rains on Sunday, or it is hot or cold. Never let the pastor know that he does you or anyone else any good. Take a class in Sunday school and be at your place about three Sundays out of five, and late the other two. Attend to church meeting if you have the opportunity of go'ng anywhere else. Snub strangers. Be quest the ushers never to put one in your pew. If one is near youjn church, never hand him a hymnal. Never speak to anyone whom you see there Sunday after Snnday, unless you have been jegnlarly introduced. If you are sick, do not send word to the pas tor, but let him find it out himself. He will probably call about the time yon are able to go out and spend the day. la the meantime take every occasion to tell the church people that you fear the minister is not much of a pastor; that he doesn't seem to know who are sick; that he has not been to see yon for weeks, and all the time you have been so miserable. If tintes are hard, money scarce, business dull, inform the officers that you must give up your pew. You cannot afford to do anything for the church this year. By the time you have paid for your tobacco, ribons, jewelry, livery and excursions, you really haven't anvthing left Never "talk up" your church. Do not let outsiders know that a church exists. Go with others elsewhere, whenever you get a chance. Tell the members when yon get back how you enjoyed the "funny" minister, and what splen did music they had solos, duets, choruses, etc, and you don't see why we can't have something ot the sort It docs "draw." .' None of ourbnslne39l Wandering and sinful. All through the streets of the city they (to, Hungry and homelesa in the wild weather, None of our business! Dare we say so? None of our business! Children's wan faces. Haggard and old with their suffering and sin, (Hold fast your darlings on tender, warm bosom, borrow without, but the home-light within.) What does it matter that some other woman, Some common mother, in bitter despair. Walls In a garret, or sits In a cellar; Too heart-broken for weeping or prayer? None of our business!

Then the young men were full of Ingersollism, and thought that Christianity was Worn out. But thev have found that there is nothing in infi delity. It tears down, but does not build up. It does not give anything." The JUedical Jou rnaf makes a good showing for tbe excellent health of ministers: Compar ing the death rate of ministers, in respect of the causes of death with the mortality of other men, tho following results are obtained: Of S6.331 clergymen, 160 died of infectious diseases. The usual experience of an insurance company would have made the number 239: that Is, the mortality of the clergymen was only 79 per cent of the ordinary death rate. The death rate of physicians from these diseases was 127 above the usual rate. Of lung affections, excluding con sumption, 811 clergymen died, instead ot 323, the number expected from mortality tables. Physicians died of such diseases 115 per cent above tho average rate. Between the ages of 26 and 4l the mortality of Roman Catholic clergymen, compaicd with Protestant ministers of the same age, was as 1ST to 109. while be tween the ages of 46 and G3 the difference was as 154 to 10U, and between the ages of 6G and 85 as 118 to 100.

SATURDAY, APRIL 12, FLOWERS OF SPRING Have a Great Deal to Do With the Trade of the Country. BUSINESS -LOOKING BRIGHTER. Negotiations for Large Orders of Iron and Steel Products. GENBEAL TEADE SHOWS IMPROVEMENT rsrxcu.1. teliqbax to thk dispatoh.i Netv Tore, April 11. Special telegrams to Sradstreet's show that owing to Imore prevalent spring weather and improvement in the condition of country roads, there has been a noticeable gain in the demand from interior merchants. This influence has been the more conspicuous at Boston, Chicago, Memphis, St Paul, Omaha, Kansas City, St. Louis, New Orleans, and to some extent at Pittsburg. Fears of farther damage from overflows along the Mississippi are subsid ing. Mercantile collections generally are unsatisfactory, though signs of improvement are noted. Earnings of the 129 railroad companies for March aggregate 531,004,479, a gain over March of last year of 8.7 per cent This is smaller than any monthly increase since last summer. The reduced overland cotton movement and floods at the South .have re duced the earnings of roads in the Missis sippi Valley. The heavy movement of crop' "West and Northwest does notcjuite offset tbe eflect of rate cutting in that section. Earn ings of 127 companies for the first quarter of the year aggregate 590,359,890, a gain over last year of 10.8 per cent WHEAT OTRMEB. Exports of wheat (and flour as wheat) the past week: have equaled y,lt.7l Dusneis, against 1,220,073 bushels 111 the like week ot 1889 and 1,621,896 bushels last week. Wheat has shown marked firmness on un favorable weather conditions and reports of falling off in condition in the winter-sown crop, and prices have advanced 33 cents. An unusual amount of negotiation has been in progress during the week in reference to iron and steel products tor immediate as well as remote deliveries, but this has not yet arrested the downward tendency in orices. Actual transactions have been of limited proportions. The total weekly output of pig iron during March has been reduced about 4,000 or 5,000 tons. This is taken as an encouraging element in the situation. Eastern drygoods commission men report a slightly better reorder demand from West ern jobbers. There is a considerable distri bution ot spring dress goods through price concessions. Prices in the regular way are firm except as to bleached cotton, which favors buyers, and print cloths are l-16Jc higher. TEADE IMPKOVING. E. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review says: "With larger tonnage in motion than in any previous year at the same season, a larger volume ot currency in circulation, larger payments through clearing houses by nearly 10 per cent, larger imports and ex ports, and larger domestic production in ag riculture, in iron and steel, leather and boot and shoe manufacture, the country has en tered upon the second quarter of tbe year with great Hopefulness. Trade throughout the country seems gradually improving. Yet there are unfavorable symptoms which do not disap pear, but grow more distinct and threaten ing. The iron industry has advanced too rapidly the expected set-back has begun. Furnaces in blast April 1 were of 175,671 tons weekly output, against 180,091 March 1. The production for the quarter may he estimated at 6,250,000, and stocks on nana are accumulating. Prices are lowerPSouth ern No. 1 beiDg offered at 517 50 and 18. while bids of 533 are sought for steel rails. BAH IEON BETTEE. The business in bar iron is better, with no change in price; plates are moving at very unsatisfactory prices, and structural iron is not as active as makers wish. Coal is still stagnant, the output (or the quarter having been 668,032 tons, or nearly 10 per cent less than last year's, with accumulating stocks unsold. Coppir has been steady at 14c, tin inactive at 20Jc and lead dull at 53 85 bid. The speculative markets have been more active, with a higher range of prices on the whole. Sales of wheat heretofore have reached 74,000,000 bushels, and the price has advanced Sc, though exports have been only about equal to last year's for the week on account ot more definite reports of injury. Corn is also half a cent stronger, with sales for the week of 11,000,000 bushels, and oats nearly 1 cent higher. Pork and lard are steady, but hogs 20 cents per 100 ponnds dearer. Coffee for speculation has advanced one fourth, and the high prices have checked actual consumption. Petroleum has de clined 1 cents with small sales, but sugar has been iirmly held. The average of all prices for commodities is but a shade higher than a week ago, some manufactured products having declined. CHEERFUL EETOItTS. Reports from other cities are more gener ally favorable than is usual. Boston finds improvement in wool 'and leather, and domestic trade active in boots and shoes, cotton goods and lumber, and in other build ing materials. Philadelphia notes few sale) ot wool, and prices are less firm and a good trade in chemicals, liquors and leaf tobacco. Chicago grain receipts are still large, dry goods sales show a slight increase with good payments, and there are' liberal orders ior boots and shoes. St. Louis again reports the Southern district somewhat damaged by floods, and collections are rather less satis factory. At Pittsburg there is a better feel ing among iron manufacturers; at Cleve land an improvement in drygoods and hard ware; at Detroit a slow improvement and manufacturers busy, and at other Western cities a general improvement and a satisfac tory volume of trade. At the South, out side of the direct effect ot the floods, trade is good and less time is asked than usual, good crops and high prices having swelled the cash surplus of dealers. MONEY GENERALLY EAST. The monetary situation is not threatened. Interior markets are generally easier at Kansas City and Milwaukee, with more demands. At Cleveland the demand is such as to cause some stiingency. Complaints of slow collections are distinctly less frequent. It is not to be overlooked that the West and South have been drawing from last year enormously for products sold, while the purchasing of goods is not much more than in other years. Thus the east-bound tonnage for the past five weeks from Chicago has been 442,404 tons against 290,713 last year, bnt in quantities or values shipped West ward, no such increase is discoverable. The business failures occurring through out the country number 209, as compared with a total of 206 lis week. For the cor responding week of last year the figures were239. FIKE IN A TLNEMEKT. Tbreo Children Rerfcued by Firemen From the Room In vtilcb They Were Locked. Kansas City, Mo., April 11. Fire caused by the explosion of a gasoline stove, at noon to-day, in one of a row of a dozen small tenement houses at the corner of Twen tieth and Penn streets, destroyed six of them. The wind was blowing furiously at the time, and the flames spread with such rapidity that many of the tenants barely escaped with their lives. John Garvin jumped from a second-story window, and sustained severe injury. He was removed to the City Hospital. The three small children of Mrs. Harmon, whom their mother had locked in the house when she went marketing, were rescued by the firemen from a secondstory window. There were many other narrow escapes. The loss Is 510,000. 1890. SNAPPED THE SPOTTERS. A Smart Pennsylvania Conductor Got Photos oT Five of Them IIow the Spies Car ried on Operations Womai'i Tears Used to Good Effect. The passenger conductors on the Pan handle road are living in mortal terror of the guillotine. It was whispered around the Pennsylvania yards yesterday that about the next place the headchopoing machine would strike would be the South west system. Already two men have been discharged on the west end of the Pan handle, and tbe Pittsburg conductors are won dering if any vacancies will occur in their ranks. There were no new discbarges on the Fort Wayne and C. & P. Roads yesterday. A good story comes from the amain line. One of the conductor, who has a through run, is an ama teur photographer, and has pot in idle moments taking snap shots at mountain views, while his train was spinning along at the rate of 40 miles an hour. He accidentally got on to the fact that "spotters" were being pat on his train. Be tried an experiment that proved a success. While one of the spotters had bis at tention attracted tbe conductor "snapped" him and got a good picture. Ho said nothing, and awaited developments, not on the picture but on the spotter. The latter could not trip tbe conductor into doing anything against tbe rules, and a few days latter another spotter was pat on. The conductor also got a "view" of him, and he kept adding to his collection nntil be now has the likenesses of five men supposed to bu spotters. He is now distribut ing copies of tbe snap shots to tbe other con ductors, and the usefulness of these five men is at an end on tbe main line at least. A short time ago a spotter boarded Frank Stacey's train, on the f't Wayne:, at Home wood. He offered the conductor S2 to ride to Massillon. Mr. Htacey asked for 75 cents more, tbe man said he had no more money. He claimed to be an old passenger man himself, and on fraternal grounds asked to be carried to bis destination. Tbe conductor refused, and upon threatening to put tbe man off the train when ho got as far as tbe S2 would carry hirrr, the man handed over the 75 cents. Mr. Stacey then punched out a receipt, and as he was doing so the man said: "Oh put the money in your pocket Nobody will know any better." He walked down the aisle of the car and took a seat at the door. The conductor followed him and offered him the receipt. Tbe man refused to take it saying he bad no use for it Stacey put tbe receipt in tbe man's coat pocket however, and made him take it The company had women spotters at work. One of them got on a train and was short 16 cent in her fare. The conductor threatened to put her off, but tbe woman began to cry. Tbe conductor could not stand this, and said he would pay tbe 1G cents out of his own pocket The woman then wanted him to kejp the money, and refused the duplex receipt There are . many white soaps, each represented to be "just as good as the Ivory.'
