THE" PrTTSBUHG DISPATCH, THURSDAY. APRIL 17. IS9Q,
MDERSOH HUN DOWN
One of the Men Suspected of
Murdering Mrs. Eudert.
HIS FIGHT FOR FBEEDOM.
Be Was Working as a Porter in an
East Liverpool Hotel.
KILLEN AFFECTED BT THE KBWS
On Tuesday alternoon Detective Fitr
cerald got a clew to the fact that Joseph
Anderson, the colored man implicated in
the murder of Mrs. Eudert at Tarentum,
ivas in Pittsburg. The police officials have
been for a long time on the track of the
Tarentum murderers, and once before De
tective Fitzgerald had located this same
colored man at Ft. "Wayne, Ind., only to
find that he had left the place a few hours
before the detective's arrival. For a radius
of 100 miles around rittsburg the country
has been scoured by the police officials
without any great parade of the fact, and
while the county officials seemingly slept
over the matter the police were busy, and
at last "Lucky Fits" made the first break in
the ranks of the escaped murderers.
He found another colored man who had
checked Anderson's trunk to East Liver
pool on Tuesday, and chased the matter up
until he found the suspected man had
secured work In a hotel in that town. The
detective left Pittsburg at 4 r. St., yesterday,
and taking the other colored man with him
reached East Liverpool shortly after 6 r. M.
Probably the urst man he met in the depot was
Anderson, who is also known by the alias of
"New York Shine." Thedetecthe walked up
to the colored man, and playfully remarked:
"I cues: von might as v oil take a pleasure trip
to Pittsburg. It won't cost you anything."
HE STAKTED TO BU2T.
The negro at once took exceptions to the
trip and the acquaintance of the detective by
starting to run, but was quickly caught by Fitz
gerald. The prisoner then showed fight, but in
this he tackled Fitzgerald upon his native
heath, and if there is a colored man in the
State of Ohio with a sorer head than Joseph
Anderson, alias New York Shine, he can
take the premium for solidity of cranium. He
will come to Pittsburg in charge of the de
tective by the 6 A. Ji. tram to-day, and with him
will be brought the other colored gentleman who
took part in the proceedings by assisting
Anderson in his fight against arrest.
It is thought that Anderson will make some
important revelations on the subject of the
murder of Mrs. Rudert, and the arrest or the
other accomplices in the dastardly act is
thought now to he a certainty in the very near
luture. Inspector McAleese and Assistant
Superintendent O'Mara were very much grati
fied last night over the success of a Pittsburg
officer, and said that they had several times
come close to the fugitives from iustice. but
would be certain now that the others would be
caught. The Inspector said he did not know
that Anderson was the man Tho committed
the murder, but was confident that he was one
of the men wanted for the crime.
KILLEN DEEPLY AFFECTED.
Alexander Killen, at present confined In the
county jail, betrayed considerable emotion
when informed of the arrest of Anderson, and
eagerly inquired if the prisoner had told any
thing. He w as informed that a lull confession
was expected, and seemed to be deeply affected
bv the news. It is more than probable that
before the next "i hours some light v.:il be
thrown on the authorship of the most wanton
murder which has been committed in Alle
gheny county for years, when Kudert's jewelry
store at Taientum was robbed.
A lcal account of the arrest by telegraph
from East Liverpool sajs : Anderson has been
here for about two weeks, and came, so he
sajs, trom Latrobe. He denies that he knew
such a murder was committed, but admitted
that be knew Dctectne Fitzgerald He was
snouting for his hotel at' the station, when
Fitzgerald stepped no and kindly offered to
shake hands with him. The surprised man
reached out his hand, and. before he knew
what was coming, the nippers it ere on his
wrists. Anderson resistediaost desperately, and
s it finally took two officers to land him in jail.
The fact that he resisted and fought so, leads
to the belief here that he is the right man. He
is very guarded in his interviews with the mem
bers of the press. Fitzcerald says he feels
certain that he is one of the men that killed
Mrs. Rudert. He will not likely go back to
Pittsburg without a requisition. Anderson is a
very dressy fellow, wears a high bat, and in
sists that he can show ui every moment of his
time since June last.''

A Youth Secures n Licrnse, Bat the Girl
Is nilsstnir.
Another elopement is reported on the South
side. Julia Penman and Arthur Gray fell in
love, as young people will do, and wanted to
get married. Gray's parents strenuously ob
jected. Arthur managed to obtain a license,
bo ever, on the pretense that he was of age.
The course of true love might have run In a
phenomenally smooth manner had not the
young man's father discovered the fraud and
threatened an information for perjury. Arthur
skipped to Wheeling, V. Va., and telegraphed
bis lady love to follow him via Morgantown.
Miss Penman procured a ring and informed
her relatives that she W3R married to
'Gray. She took the boat for Morgantown,
and on Friday evening a telegram came from
Gray asking after the whereabouts of Julia.
Early Saturday another telegram arrived with
a like inquiry. To both questions the answer
ing Penmans were obliged to reply that they
knew nothing of the girl. No further intelli
gence lias been received of ber; but George
Evans, a friend of young Gray's, stated Ias.t
night that Arthur is about to return to Pitts-'
burg to hunt for his darling.

An ordinance requiring owners of lots

plate vacant lot connections, but only those
upon which wero buildings. Dr. .Mans nopcu

BROWN JI.VKhS A 1I0V&
After Next Monday Obstructionists Will be
Prosecuted.
Mayor Gourley said yesterday that the report
of the conference of department chiefs, as
printed in The Dispatch, was substantially
correct He intended to fill the duties of the
Mayor's office as fully and as conscientiously as
lay in his power, and certainly should exercise
his supervisory powers with regard to the de
partments. The inspection of the Poor Farm,
he said, would be made before long. He said
he was sure of the fact that the institution vas
efficiently and economically administered,
much more so than when under control of a
board, and it was as much to demonstrate this
fart as for any other reason, that the proposed
official visit would be made. ,
Chief Brown yesterday notified people who
maintain obstructions on thoroughfares, that
on and after Monday tliey would be liable to
prosecution for such offenses.

The regular quarterly meeting of D. A.
No. 3, K. of L., yesterday was marked by
the resignation of District Master Work
man I. N. Boss and the election of Joseph
L. Evans to the position. The action of
Mr. Boss is occasioned bv his appointment
as Deputy Surveyor of the Port and Olerk
oi customs unacr non, uouu x. xviav,
which position he takes charge of to-day.
His resignation was as follows:
Having twice been selected by the members
of our organization to serve in the capacity of
Master Workman, after serving three terms as
Secretary of the District, is an honor that one
might well be proud of. Upon accepting .tho
positions to which I.was elected I promised to
do all in my power to bring about a lriendlter
feeling between the eiaployer-'a'nd employe.
You are able and competent to judge." as to
whether such has been uone or not Many en
tangling alliances have sprung up, and some
bitterness between leaders has been indulged
in. Yet I believe it was brought about through
misunderstandings, and not the desire to tear
down rather than build up the organization.
PLACED OK THE BLACKLIST.
There was a time in the history of our order
that to hold a position as District Master Work
man was, in the eyes of the public, condemna-

one who would accept the position. We have
had men in our district who were faithful work
ers who had to tramp from place to place in or
der to secure work when their names became
known. Thanks are due to the order to-day for
bringing about a different state of affairs. In
telligent education, agitation and organization
has touched the sympathetic chord of men's
nature and consequently changed the condition
ol thougnt Men occupying positions ai me
head of labor organizations are looked npon as
intelligent beings, and are to-day, I am proud
to say, respected wherever they go.
I entertain the friendliest feelings toward the
organization, and its true and faithful adher

tender my resignation as District Master Work
man. I have received the .appointment to my
new position without the solicitation of the
order. Allow me to say that while I enter upon
my new duties, I do so with the kindest wishes
for the order's success, and will still promise to
do all in my power iqr the success of the work
ingmen in securing just and adequate compen

good condition, and a lively increase in mem
bership is near at hand. My successor may
rest assured that he shall have my hearty sup

Department at Washington Instructing him to
report to Hon. J. B. Weber at New Y'ork for

This move is a surpriso to Mr. Layton's
friends in Pittsburg, who consider it as a mis
taken political move. Mr. Layton is needed in
Pittsburg on account of the large iron, coal and
coke interests here, with which he Is so well ac-
?ualnted. He has his family here, and' his
riends claim it will be a great inconvenience
to him to be moved to New York. They talk
of protesting against his removal, as there is no

the rules are broken, and prices are often cut
Ono of the members said that the new combi

it will be more effective. Under the present

caution, and, turning to tho surprised police

TTSU
SHE LIKES TO WORK.
Oakmont Residents Claim That Mrs.
McDonald is Out of Her Mind.
A THREAT TO BUKN THE TOWN.
She Had a Playful Habit of Wanting- to
Carre Her Neighbors.
THE HEARING SET FOE SATDEDAI
The people of Oakmont and Hulton arc
much excited over the arrest of Mrs. Maggie
McDonald, who was lodged in jail Monday
night on a charge of surety of the peace.
At the jail she has been regarded as sane
and harmless, but her neighbors have a
different tale to tell. The womaD, they
claim, has been married about 11 years, and
in all that time she has never been able to
agree with her husband. The story as told
about her yesterday by David Bright, an
Oakmont store keeper, was as follows:
"The woman is quarrelsome, and is either
crazy or subject to fits. At times she is a
perfect ladv, and then again there is noth
ing too wild for her to do. Last summer she
s out at Mrs, Hazelbocber's farm, near here.
That lady refused her something. Mrs. Mc
Donald thereupon threatened to kill her. She
wentonTinto the road and took off her clothes.
Sbe stood there for a long time calling the
other woman all the vile names she could
think of.
SHE MKES TO -WOBK.
"It is only occasionally that she lives with
her husband. She prefers to work as a servant,
but never stays but a short time at any place.
Her husband has repeatedly urged her to go to
housekeeping, but she has always refused, and
has left him for months at a time. She is mad
ly jealous of him, and I believe much of her
trouble comes from that, although there is no
cause for it. He is an honest, hard working
man. He is a carpenter and a painter.
At different times she has been out of her
mind and threatened to burn down part of the
town. She- has also made attempts to kill peo
ple. Her last outbreak was on last Thursday,
when she left Michael Brigbt's boarding house,
where her husband was keeping her, and took
refuge with Mrs. Martha Powers.
WANTED TO KILL SOMEBODY.
"She became excited there and wanted to kill
all tbe people in the house. On Saturday night
she got possession of a butcher knife with a
blade 12 inches long. She started out of the
house.Meclaring she would kill her husband.
Mrs. Powers caught her, and Mrs. McDonald
tried to cut her. After a fight Mrs. Powers se
cured the knife, but the woman got away from
her and ran down to where her husband was
staying. When she got inside sne tried to choke
Michael Bright, a cripple, who, by the way, is
not a relative of mine. Herlmsband stopped
her, and sho had to be held id bed all night
Constablo Mitchell was called in to assist, and
as she had not quieted down by Monday it was
deemed advisable to take her to jail.
"At different times when she bad these fits,
she would go to stores and purchase everything
she happened to see that pleased her and order
the bill Bent to ber husband. It was only after
tbe urgent request of the citizens that sbe was
sent to jail. We will not allow her to come
back here again."
Mrs. 'Squire Hotellyn and Mrs. Powers were
seen, and they told exactly the samo story. Dr.
Campbell corroborated the above and said be
bad been attending the woman. Half tbe time
It was a game of hide and seek to find his
patient. He said she had a number of com
plaints and was subject to temporary fits of
insanity.
At tho hearing on Saturday her neighbors
will make tbe above statements under oath.
ALLEGHENY A WINNEE.
An Attempt Will be Made to Give Away tho
First Ward Square.
Tbe bill providing for a Government
building for Allegheny passed tbe Senate yes
terday. It nas created much excitement in
Allegheny, but no one knows just where the
new building will be located. It will, at least,
be in tho locality of City Hall. An attempt
will also be made to give the First ward square
for tbe purpose.
Recorder Graham. In speaking of tbe matter
last night, said: "The Government will not
build on any ground unless they own it. The
only way by which this square could be given
is by securing the consent of all the people
who hold property inside the parks. They are
tbe only persons who would have any control
of tbe matter. They made a gift in that man
ner once by donating tbe site for the old peni
tentiary, but it is doubtful whether tbe law
could be stretched to that extent again. There
is no doubt tbatsuch an attempt will be made."
A CONGRESSIONAL FIGHT.
Oscar L. Jackson Secures Ihe Delegates In
Lawrence County.
Ex-Congressman Oscar L. Jackson, of New
Castle, was in the city yesterday. Mr. Jackson
is a Congressional candidate in his district, and
be was feeling elated because he had secured
the delegates in bis county. He couldn't say
how he would come out as the other three
counties each have their man. Major Mc
Dowell will get the delegates in Mercer county
and Black will probably get there in Butler.
When the delegates meet it will bs an interest
ing quadrangular fight, and the best man will
win.
Mr. Jackson spoke feelingly about the loss of
Mr. Randall with whom be served. He said
tho last work he did in the House, was to have
General Rosecrans placed on tbe retired list
Some of the Republicans opposed tbe bill on
the ground that Grant aud Rosecrans bad
disagreed and it worried Mr. Randall a little.

The Club, or co-operative system, with its

these piauos that it has become necessary to
have them shipped in carloads. The show
rooms, at 137 Federal St., and the ware
house, at 21 Federal, are packed with ele
gant new and bright Everett pianos in great
variety of styles and fancy woods. They
are certainly the finest line of instruments
ever brought to this city. Our leading mu

Theodore Salmon, of the Pittsbnrg College,
says: "I will recommend the Everett to all
my friends. The tone is rich and beautiful
and I consider them first-class in every re
spect. I have examined the club system
and recommend it as a remarkably easy
way to get a first-class piano at the'lowest
possible price." Persons contemplating the

LOCATING MUNICIPAL PLACE.
City Hall Officials Do Not Want a Building
Against Their Windows.
Tbe Committee on Surveys met yesterday
afternoon and organized by electing Mr. R.B.
Carnahan Chairman. The committee will meet
on the 5th of each month.
Among tho numerous ordinances considered
by this committee was one locating Municipal
place, from Smithfield street to a point 120 feet
below to the Hnssey property, at a width of 33
feet. Tbe intention of this ordinance is to
make a public street of tbe property between
the postofflce building proper and City Hall, so
that when the postofflce property is sold the
purchaser can be prevented from erectimr a
building close to City Hall and shutting off tbe
light from the windows on the south sido of the
building. Tbe bill was recommended affirma
tively. An ordinance establishing tbe grade of
O'Hara street was laid over. A petition from
the Pennsylvania Tube Company for the vaca
tion of Commerce and Canton streets, running
through the company's property in tho Four
teenth ward, was laid over. An ordinance
vacating Elwood street from Negley avenne to
College avenue and one vacating a portion of
Maruury street were also laid over.
Tho following were affirmatively recom
mended: "Vacating an alley between Tannebill
and Vine streets: reducing the width of a por
tion of Mifflin street; changing the name of
Barton street to Morewood avenne; vacating
Geneva street from Fi!.k to Fortieth streets;
Rutledge street cast of Augusta street; Granite
street from Wvlie to Herron avenues; Sample
street from Boquet street 375 feet eastnard.
Locating Breed street. Tank alley, Caroline
street, Albert, Paul, Ellington, Meyers and
Finley streets. Smith way,Continental,Meadow,
Greenleaf. Well, Augusta, Edith and Alder
streets, Coltart square and Municipal place; re
locating Indiana street, Herron avenue and tho
west line of South Thirtieth street; establish
ing the grade of York alley and Washington
avenue.
Chief Bigelow yesterday said that in accord
ance with the action of tbe Councils Committee
on Surveys, tho Government nroperty next
Municipal Hall ought to be purchased to secure
light and ventilation. He thought the ground
would be appraised at about 12,000 per foot
front. The difficulty is that if a manufacturing
or commercial building takes the place of the
old postofflce, it will be built up to the limit of
the space and shut off light from the City
Treasurer, tbe City Clerk totally and ono
Council chamber on one side.
GOING IT BLIND.
A Ono Eyed Sinn DInkcs a Peculiar Claim
Against nn Insurance Society.
The suit of David Humphreys against the
National Beneficial Association is on trial be
fore Judge White. Humphreys took out an
insurance policy good for $1,000 in case he lost
both eyes, both arms or legs, etc, but no men
tion is made in the policy of the loss of a single
eye or limb.
Humphreys, however, was blind of one eye
when he took the policy out, and afterward
losing tbe other claimed tbe amount of insur
ance. The company refused to pay on the
ground that Humphrey had lost but one eye
since be took out the policy, and was therefore
entitled to nothing.

TVbnt tbo Combination Did to Demonstrate
That Clay Is I" Abandnnce.
An expedition was started out yesterday to
look for mud on the city streets. The explor
ers were put to unexpected trouble in fludiDg
sufficient alumine to justiry expectations, or to
make their major premise good.
One side of Bayard street is covered with cin
ders, which makes the driving along that
thoroughfare pleasant. Devotion to duty led
tbe explorers through tbe soft side'of the street.
The wagon wentthroucli what little mud there
was and came out all right. At the corner of
Bayard and Neville streets "a council of war
was held, and it was decided
that somo evidence of mud tmust
ha cAr,-A A rordinpl v the expedition bor
rowed a broom. According to the statement of
a resident of Bayard street officers and privates
set to work to wash the vehicle and horses
with clay. Tho happy thought let the explor
ers out of tbeir dilemma and .the expedition
looked, as it came along Center avenue, as
though it really had been given a mud batn in
an oil country district.
The only drawback to complete success was
an unquenchable aroma of soap-sod dish
water and sewer slops generally, which clung to
the outfit. There isn't any doubt that Pitts
burg streets might be madn mnch cleaner than
they are, but the results obtained yesterday
mlcht be bad iq tho dryest weather by utilizing
a broom aad tbe contents of almost any gutter
between the Exposition Building and Point
