The Most Sensational Scene of Eive
Weeks in the License Court
ii
'ATTORNEY CALDWELL GETS ANGRY
And BittcrJj Attacks Judge twins, tot Ef
penis and Apologizes.
ASOTHER DAI WITH THE BOEOUGHS
The most exciting event in the course of
the License Court's sessions of five weeks
occurred yesterday afternoon, when Attor
ney James M. Caldwell made a bitter
attack on Judge Ewing, boldly accusing
the Court of injustice. He was placed
technically under arrest, but was forgiven
and dismissed when he afterward made an
humble apology.
The applicants from the townships of
Collier, Forward, Hampton, Harmar, Har
rison, Indiana, Lower St Clair and Mifil in
will be heard to-day. Fifty cases were
pissed yesterday.
Judge Magce appeared alone in License
Court yesterday morning. Judge Ewing
wss still ill and did not come in until 1120
a. si. The five unfinished cases in the
Third ward of JIcKeesport were first dis
posed of: John McCarthy, Andrew 51.
Nicholson, Dennis .Kill, Benjamin F.
Beese and George "Wasmuth. McCarthy is
a hammerman, son of a saloon keeper.
Nicholson is young in years bntold in the
bar business. Kill told the Court that
under the old law he was too honest to make
much money. Reese works in the National
rolling mill and never stood behind a bar.
Wasmuth was a puddler until he lost his
right hand, and now is a weighmaster.
A. W E. Iiauch is the only applicant for
Oakmont borough. He lives in the Sixth
ward, and is a real estate dealer. His place
is at Hulton station, and was formerly the
Greenwood Houe. Mr. Tost represented
the Allegheny Valley Railroad, which
want's no saloon near its picnic ground.
Henrv Elkin kept the place in 1888. His
license was revoked, Bauch said, "on abso
lute perjury."
DEUNKEXNESS 'WITHOUT SALOONS.
Attorney Douglas, for Bauch, filed a state
ment by citizens that drunkenness at Hul
ton had increased since the saloon was
closed. H. A. Lee, of Hulton, testified
that he thought a licensed house was needed
there. He believed that drunkenness and
debauchery had increased abont the picnic
ground. Judge Ewing came in while
Bauch was un. He said that th'e Green
wood House had become so bad that no good
man cculd conduct it properly.
Sharpsburg presented 18 applicants: John
Altmeyer. North Main and Clay streets;
Peter Bohr, Thirteenth street; Andrew A.
Bragg, No. 303 South Main street; Alois
Berner, North Main street; Valentine Berner,
No. 814 Main street; Joseph Eshman. No.
702 Main street; John Joyce, No. 605 North
Main street; Magdalena Millheizer. No. 36
Bridge street; Thomas J. Murphy, Tenth
and Clay streets; Patrick McBride, No. 16
Bridge street, Andrew Noe, No. 914 Main
street; Charles O'Donnell, No. 800 Main
street; F. C. Pilgram, No. 311 South Main
street; John W. Beddinger, No. 1303 Main
street; Sebastian Bitter, Eighth and Main
streets; John Schraidtchen, No. 1010 North
Canal street; Henry Stein, Main and Tenth
streets, and Louis Walser, No. 313 South
Main street.
'Squire Bobinson testified in favor of
Altmeyer, of the Horseman s Home. Bragg
used to cttend bar tor a brother. The last
man heard before dinner furnished the most
interesting tale. He rents a hall to the
Sharpsburg Social Club, which appears to
be a drinking organization, and he bnys
and furnishes the liquor tor them.
A SENSATIONAL SCENE.
After dinner W. D. Chisholm, who failed
to appear as a witness in tbe case of Luke
Lynch, of McKeesport, was brought into
court in the custody of an officer, and was
fined $5 and costs lor contempt of court.
He seemed to be pleased to escape so easily
from being compelled to testify. Then oc
curred the most sensational episode of this
term of court. It cleared the dull atmos
phere like sheet lightning and roused the
sleepy lawyers and spectators, who have
been in a doze the greater part of the time
during the past two weeks.
Attorney J. M. Campbell stepped to the
desk with s, paper in his hand, saying that
he desired to file a petition in the case of
Mrs. Eliza Adams, of Chartiers, who was
heard last Monday. Mr. Adams, who was
licensed by Judge White, died on April 10,
leaving his wife with a large family.
"That case has been heard," said Judge
Ewing. Mr. Campbell was not to be snapped
off, bnt he raised his voice, and, holding up
the paper, said: "Your Honor said that if
Mr. Bedell came in and said that this house
was a good one, you would hear him."
"And he is not here," said Judge Ewing.
"But heis ready to come in," insisted Mr.
Caldwell. "When this case was heard you
said that .it was a rough house, and I have
here a statement from reputable citizens that
it has been orderly and welj conducted."
"The case Has been disposed of," said the
Judge.
DEMANDED A CORRECTION.
"An injustice has been done this woman,"
persisted the little attorney, who was grow
ing very red in the face. "You said that
her place was a disorderly one, and it is not
true. I demand that the correction be
made."
Judge Ewing's face was beginning- to
grow red also. His eyes snapped, but he
only said, "You may file that."
This did not suit Mr. Caldwell. He
jerked off his eye-glasses and shook them at
the court, crying: "Your Honor, you can
not produce one scintilla of proof that that
was a disorderly house. Can you show one
particle ot proof?"
"I will not hear the case further," said
Judge Ewing, losing all patience. "It has
been heard."
"I demand justice," cried Mr. Caldwell,
standing on his toes, and throwing the peti
tion over on Judge Ewing's desk. "I de
mand that you shall consider that. If you
will not hear it the whole pnblic shall hear
it In the name of the God of the widow
and the Jatherless "
As Mr. Caldwell was concluding these
word he stepped back to his chair. Judge
Ewing's face was a study, alternately pale
and flushed. In a slow and low tone,
ominous with suppressed emotion, he said:
"Mr. Caldwell! Mr. Caldwelll you forget
where you are."
"I do not lorget, your honor. I will not
endure injustice. If you do not hear this
case yon will regret it."
PLACED UNDEB ARREST.
"You will consider vourself under arrest,"
said the Judge. "The Sheriff will take
charge of Mr. Caldwell."
"That's all right," said the attorney; "I
am ready to go. I do not care for myself,
and if there was any justice " ,
"Take time to consider this," said Judge
Ewing,
"I have considered it,, on a sleepless bed,"
said Mr. Caldwell, with a dramatic gesture.
'I have considered it and the whole town
out there has considered it."
"Betireand think this over. Yon owe
the Court an apology."
"I am willing to abide bv what I have
said," concluded Mr. Caldwell, as he retired
to one side of the courtroom. He was not
taken into custody, but remained in the
room for about 20 minutes, talking with
Judge Fetterman. The latter urged Mr.
Caldwell to apologize to the Court and his
kindly advice was finally accepted.
aivct iu applicants naa been aeara, .air.
Caldwell stepped forward Brain, his hand I
folded! ia front of him. ."May it please Your j
"Honor, '"he said, "I wish you would give me
an op ortunity to apologize. I feel dread
fully sorry."
"That is all that is necessary," said Judge
Ewing, with a kindly smile upon his face.
ASHAMED OF HIMSELF.
"I feel very much ashamed of myself,"
continued Mr. Caldwell. "I would not have
blamed Your Honor if you had sent me to
jail. I was excited. Last evening I went
down to Chartiers and fonnd them all cry
ing." "I will say," remarked Judge Ewing,
"that I was possibly a little glum. But on
the evening after the hearing we marked
that case to be granted, which you, ofcourse,
did not know."
Mr. Caldwell turned to the press table,
saying: "I want to say to the reporters here
that I have known Judge Ewipg long and
never knew him to do an injustice."
"Nothing more need be said about the
case," said Judge Ewing, and Mr. Caldwell
retired with tears in his eyes.
The Court heard, in short order, the last
11 applicants from Sharpsburg. Murphy
has been a beer wagon driver for Z. Wain
wright & Co. O'Donnell and Walser have
the two houses now licensed. Beddin
ger has been for 14 months on the Sharps
burg police force. Bitter is a farmer from
O'Hara township, who has bought the
Union House.
In Spring Garden borough there are four
applicants: Henry Bncher, Am alia Fischer,
George Oesterle. now licensed, and Charles
Schriner. All are on the Spring Garden
road.
Attorney Yost appeared to oppose the ap
nlicants for Verona, Henry Berg, George
Hahn and Daniel Bitter. Judge Ewing
said that, at some time before May 1, he
wonld hear argument by the attorneys on
the question whether or not Verona is a pro
hibitory district. Berg, who was refused
license in April, 18S8, closed his hotel five
months later. Messrs. Crookston and George
H. Moore, of Verona, testified in Berg"s
favor. Hahn has been attending bar for
John Farmerie, in the Ninth ward. Bitter
has been keeping a boarding house in
Verona.
AS TO VERONA'S DRYNESS.
John B. Cribbs, of Verona, testified that
the present borough of Verona, as marked
out March 4, 1889, was originally included
entirely in Penn township prior to 1871.
That part of the old borough of Verona cut
out of Plum township in 1871 is now the
borough of Oakmont
The two anolicants from "West Libertv

Judge Ewing said: "Now vou've got ahead

CAPTAIN KUiLYS HEWS.
Tho Johnstown Commissary General Talks
en Hasting' Clinnces.
Captain Knhn, the ex-Commissary Gen
eral at Johnstown, and who was one of Ad
jutant General Hastings most valued lieu
tenants in the work of alleviating distress
among the people of the Conemaugh Valley,
was in the city yesterday on private busi
ness. He said there was little change in the
political situation in Cambria county.
"Philadelphia county, I think," said
Captain Kuhn, "will send delegates to the
convention instructed to vote for General
Hastings. I do not take much stock in the
report that Delamater is not in the fight to
stay. If he wasn't, he wonld not have con
sented to such an underhand way of work
ing the delegates from Cambria countv.
That reception we gave General Hastings'a
lew weeks afterward showed that the people
of the comity favored him and not Dela
mater. If the latter is nominated, however.
General Hastings will abide by the conven
tion's choice. He is too much of a Repub
lican to jump over the traces. From the
looks of things now, the prospects for the
noininationof Mr. Delamater don't seem so
rosv."

A CONFERENCE ASKED
The Councils Library Committee Re
quests Mr. Carnegie by Wire
TO HELP IT OUT OP A SNAKL.
The Acceptance Ordinance Under Consid
eration Yesterday.
WORK OP THE HEW PARK COMMITTEE
The only two committees of Councils
whose work may be classified as ornamental
as well as useful organized yesterday.
They Were the Parks and Library Commit
tees, both new factors in the city govern
ment. The Park Committee organized by
electing It. B. Carnahan chairman, who
made air address showing the progress and
importance of the park projects and ascrib
ing their existence to the efforts of E. M.
Bigelow, Chief of the Department of Public
"Works, who was present at the meeting.
Mr. Bigelow invited the committee to visit
the park in a body in the near future and
promised the members lots of enjoyment
both in perspective and prospective. He
added that as the start had been
made on the zoological collection
now was the time to subscribe. He had in
hand a bear and a fox, bnt they were a poor
starter for a fox farm or a zoological garden.
He declined the offers of white mice nnd
rabbits, but thought squirrels would be or
namental and amusing and would be
pleased to have several different kinds do
nated. The committee then adjourned to
meet on call of the Chaij.
The Library Committee, which is nearly
identical in membership, was then called to
order by City Clerk Booth, and elected
John S. Lambie Chairman. The time for
holding committee meetings was left to the
discretion of the Chair.
THAT ORDINANCE COMES UP.
The ordinance amending the ordinance ac
cepting the library gift from Mr. Carnegie.
by which it is provided that the citizen
members of tbe committee fill vacancies in
their number and the Councilmen to do the
same, was then presented for action.
Kirk G. Bigham, Councilman of the
Thirty-second ward, said he thought a con
ference between Mr. Carnegie and the com
mittee would be in order, and moved that
consideration of the amendment be post
poned until after such conference should
take place. He also suggested that the
Chairman should correspond with Mr. Car
negie to find when it would be convenient
for him to meet the committee.
Mr. Keating approved of Mr. Bigham's
proposition. He felt that he expressed the
sentiments of the whole committee when he
said that Councils should go slow and begin
this work properly. The jarring that had
taken place over the library question
showed that a proper beginning had not yet
been made. While he would hesitate to
express his unreserved opinion of the mat
ter now, he felt that the ordinances and all
other matters in connection with the library
project should be arranged so that it wonld
meet with the unanimous approbation of
Councils. He hoped action would be post
poned on the ordinance for a short time at
least.
snODLD BE VEBT SHORT.
Mr. Carnahan thought the postponement
should be as short as possible. There seemed
to be a difference of opinion about the or
dinance already adopted, but he believed
that a great many statements had been made
that were false, or at least exaggerated, and
had created an impression that there were
differences that do not exist. He did not
see that tbe amendment to the ordinance
would make much difference, were it
adopted, and if Mr. Carnegie desired it, he
was perfectly willing that it should be
adopted, though he was opposed to any
great delay. The amendment should be
brought before Councils at the next meeting.
Mr. Bigham said there was no doubt that
the library question had gotten into consid
erable of a snarl, and tbe best way to smooth
matters out was to have a conlerence with
Mr. Carnegie. He- was glad to say the
Councilmanic members had kept out of the
newspaper controversy, but was sorry he
could not say as much for the citizen mem
bers. He believed all the fuss and smoke
over the matter hart not been raised at Mr.
Carnegie's instance, but that Mr. Carnegie
did not regard it as seriously as some of the
citizen members who were not only exceed
ingly anxious to secure the powers of the
commission, bnt were equally anxious to re
tain them after getting them. Mr. Bigham
had no doubt that if the Councils committee
could have a conference with Mr. Carnegie
they could talk the matter over and come to
a perfect understanding with him, and thus
prevent the danger of any trouble in the
luture.
On the adoption of Mr. Bigham's motion,
Mr. Lambie suggested that a copy of the
amendment proposed be sent to Mr. Car
negie, who is now in New York, and in the
event of his failure to be able to meet the
committee, to ask for his views br letter.
Mr. Carnegie was to sail for Europe May
23, and the matter should be settled before
that time.
MIGHT BE MISUNDERSTOOD.
Mr. Carnahan otlered a motion to that
effect, but it was opposed by Mr. Holliday,
who said that if the copy was seut Mr. Car
negie might misunderstand that the matter
had been acted upon by Councils, whereas,
there had as yet been no expression of opin
ion on the aniendmeut by any member of
the committee or Councils.
Mr. Bigham took the same view of the
matter, and Mr. Keating suggested that
Mr. Carnegie be wired immediately that
the committee desired a conference with
him, and ask when it would suit him to
meet them.
Mr. Lambieasked Mr. Carnahan to take the
chair, and alter Mr. Bigham had expressed
the opinion that in the present temper of
Councils and the present shape of the ordi
nance and its amendment, it would not pass
Councils, the member for the Eighth ward
said he did not think the ordinance is what
it ought to be, but he was in favor of
amending the ordinance in. the manner sug
gested by Mr. Carnegie. The Allegheny
Councils had made their library legislation
in a hurry, and had to pass fresh legislation
on the subject at every meeting since, and
Mr. Lambie favored having the necessary
legislation for Pittsburg made os perfect as
possible at the start.
It was then agreed that Chairman Lambie
should wire Mr. Carnegie at once, asking
when it would be convenient for the Jatter
to meet with the CouncilsLibrary Commit
tee, and the latter then adjourned to meet at
the call or the Chair.

She Ilnd No Intention of Killing tho New
Innds When She Poisoned Tliclr Food.
Chicago, April 17. A Coroner's jury
to-day began its inquest into the cause of
death of Mr. and Mrs. Newland, of Engle
wood, who were poisoned with rough on
rats, administered to them in some canned
corn by their maid servant, Mamie Starr, a
few days ago. Miss Grace Newland told
the story of the employment of the girl as

Mamie Starr then took the witness stand.
She repeated her confession. She said she
was despondent and intended to commit
suicide. She put some of the poison in the
corn in order that the members of the family
might be made ill, so that her death would not
be attributed to suicide, but eating poisoned
corn and thereby avoiding disgrace. She
did not intend to kill the Newlands.
