AFTER WJJfflCES.
The Hopeful Democracy Will
Name a Pull Ticket.
SOME NAMES SUGGESTED.
Colonel W. A. Stono Mates a State
ment of His Case.
WHY GEN. HASTINGS WAS IN TOWN
The eyes of politicians are beginning to
turn toward the Democracy, to discover
what they intend to do in Allegheny coun
ty. For many of the offices no names hare
been suggested. Although in a majority of
cases a candidacy in this county is hopeless,
H. T. "Watson, W. J. Brennen and other
Democratic guiding lights agree that a full
ticket will be nominated.
There are no known candidates for any
county office except Commissioner. Three
are to be elected, and nnder the law one is
snre to be a Democrat. Daniel Mc Williams,
the incumbent, who lives, in the Second
ward, is a candidate, with his usual strong
backing. D. J. Boyle, the liveryman, of the
Serenth W3rd; James Tallan, a painter, of
the Sixth ward, and Alexander Wilson, the
tobacconist, living in the Eleventh ward of
Allegheny, are out for the nomination. It is
likely that the Democrats will nominate
two, as the Republicans have done.
William J. Brennen, the attorney and
head of the County Democracy, is not a
candidate for the Congressional nomination
against Hon. John Dalzell. The only man
reported to be willing to run in the Twentv
third district is Samuel L. Bellman, a
druggist at the corner of Butler and Forty
eighth streets. He has been an active Dem
ocratic worker.
DOETO CONSIDERABLE THINKING.
"The dissatisfaction in the Bepublican
rants of Allegheny over the Congressional
fight is nuts for the Democrats," said Clerk
of the Street Commissioners Stubbs yester
day, "and everything that comes to our net
in the way of a disgusted Bayne delegate is
Spanish mackerel. The County
Democracy have not said much
about toe moves they contemplate
making to put up a candidate who will
draw votes from disgruntled Republicans,
but they are doing a heap of thinking. I
haven't heard a word as to the probable
candidate, and cannot say who will be men
tioned for the place. It all depends on
what action the Republican County Com
mittee takes. If the committee indorses
Stone, then we will pnt up the best man
we've got against him and secure the votes
of those who are opposed to Colonel Stone
on account of the manner in which he was
nominated at the convention."
Interviews with other Democrats were
had touching the Congressional campaign,
but they all appeared to be adverse to giv
ing any definite information for various
reasons. Several City Hall employes were
approached, and were unanimous in stating
that the opportunity of the Democrats was
at hand.
EXPECTING TO WIS.
"We will win sure, from the looks of
things at present," said one. "All we want
to ds is to enter the campaign now with a
popular candidate at the head, and we will
carry the day. Two prominent lawyers and
well-known citizens are SDoken of as the
most likely men from which the Democratic
nominee will be chosen. They are D. F.
Patterson and D. T. Watson."
"I understand there is going to be an in
dignation meeting held in Allegheny Sat
urday night by anti-Bayne people," said
Undertaker Rodnev, who is well versed in
local politics. "The object will be to get
the feeling of the public You know it is
reported that Colonel Stone will have con
siderable opposition if he runs for Repre
sentative, and it is necessary to select some
one who will satisiyall Republicans.
Already there are many bolters who loudly
proclaim that they will wing their flight
from the party at the coming election, and
since Colonel Stone is stated as being deter
mined to fight it out, now or never, there
trill be trouble in camp. It is given out as
a dead sure thing that the Executive Com
mittee will nominate a new man at
the County Convention to be held again,
and be. with Stone and possibly Shiras,
would make three Republican candidates
against-one Democrat, which would split
our party and give the opposition a walk
over. The man mentioned as the possible
sew candidate is Mr. Walter Lyon."
BEING GENERALLY SIGNED.
The petition now going the rounds in
Allegheny to get the opinions of leading
citizens as to the advisability of holding the
primaries over again, is securing the sig
natures of tbe most prominent business and
prolessional men of the city.
William M. Kennedy, the able lieuten
ant of Mr. Shiras, was seen last night, and
asked whether his candidate had finally de
cided to withdraw. "I cannot say until we
test the legality of Stone's nomination,"
B3id Mr. Kennedy. ".However, all the
friends of Mr. Shiras are opposed to bring
ing him out as an independent candidate,
ana desire to leave the matter to the people."
Those who are iu a position to know
stated yesterday that tbe Democratic candi
dates for tbe State Legislature have yet to
be named, and so far are unknown to any
one. The southern end of the county will have
something to say about the Congressional
nomination in the Twenty-fourth district.
Two Allegheny men have been announced
as candidates. They are Postmaster J. B.
Shale, ot McKeesport, and Dr. John Pur
man, of Homestead.
THE OTHER CONTESTS.
The only suggestion tor the Forty-fourth
Senatorial district, to oppose William
FJinn, is J. A. Clarke, an oil man of the
East End. The district is strongly Repub
lican. In the Legislative districts the Fourth is
the only one recognized as Democratic The
announced candidate!) there are Councilman
John Kearns, of the Tenth ward, and ex
Alderman M. F. Cassidv, of the First ward.
Alderman Cornelius O'Donnell, of the
Ninth ward, is said to be willing to accept
the nomination.
Notwithstanding the heavy Republican
majority in the Fi 'th Legislative dibtrict,
which includes the East End and the South
side, William Walls, a popular Democrat
of the Southsidc, is spoken of as a candidate
for that district. Mr. Walls was formerly
State lecturer for tbe Knights of Labor.
The Democrats will elect 22 delegates to
the State convention. Tbe Republican rep
resentation in State conventions is based on
the number of representatives elected by
each Legislative district, bnt the Democrats
send one delegate for each 1,000 votes cast
for Chauncey F. Black for Governor iu
1886.
FIVE HUNDRED WILL GO
With tbe Tariff Clnb to UarrUbunt to Boom
Montoolh for Governor.
The Young Men's Republican Tariff Clnb
last evening heard encouraging reports from
the committees appointed to arrange for the
trip to the State Convention for the purpose
of booming Montooth. The Pittsburg Citi
zen's Committee asked the privilege of ac
companring the club, which was granted.
Members ot the club will be allowed to in
vite fneuds to accompany them, under cer
tain restrictions.
The final reports of tbe committees will
be heard next Thursday evening, when all
arrangements for the Harrisburg trip will
be completed. It is expected that 500 per
tons will so on the Tariff Club train.
THINKS HE WILL GET THERE.
COLONEL STONE CONFIDENT OF HIS
ELECTION TO CONGRESS.
Me Think nil Nomination Waa Fair nnd
Square Nobody Aeked to Tote for Blm
at the Convention He Waa n Dork
Horne.
The Republican side of the Twenty-third
Congressional district is settled until the
County Committee meets. Colonel William
A. Stone will remain in the field as tbe "Re
publican nominee. Colonel Stone yester
day conferred with a number of political
and business friends. Iu the afternoon he
gave The Dispatch the following state
ment: "I had no knowledge nor intimation from
any living person that Colonel Bayne in
tended to decline that nomination until
after the election of his delegates and until
early Monday morning, when be sent for
me and told me that he nad intended to de
cline, and suggested that I should take the
nomination from that .convention.' He, sent
for a few delegates who were handy to
reach and friends of his, had them
meet Mondav night, and there he told
them that he intended to decline that
nomination. Tbey all urged him to stand"
as a candidate, and I with the rest, because
I was not particularly desirous of going to
Congress now. I hoped to be a candidate
sometime, when Colonel Bayne might get
through, bnt was not a candidate this time,
at all. We urged, him to stand, and he
would not do it He said: 'Now, gentle
men, I am going to quit; I shall decline that
nomination.'
didn't ask tor a vote.
"There were a dozen or two of leading
friends and delegates there, and after tbey
failed to persuade him to stand, then they
sot to casting around among themselves as
to whom they could nominate I did not
ask a man to mention my name Of their
own accord thev selected me. That is, all
came to the conclusion that I was the man
they wanted. Until that time I did not
know what was to be the outcome of the
matter, anymore than the man in the moon.
I did not suppose they would select me.
All I knew was that a few hours before I
had been told by Colonel Bayne that he
would decline, and that T. would be very
acceptable to him.
"After tbey had agreed upon me, as fast
as any delegates were seen they were told
what Colonel Bayne intended to do not by
me, but by those who were there. When
the convention assembled Tuesday morning
at 10 o'clock, nearly all his delegates un
derstood that he was going to withdraw,
and nearly all had expressed themselves as
favorable to me. After bis declination of
the nomination I was nominated, and nomi
nated almost unanimously. Some of the
Shiras delegates were for me, and since I
have returned from the East to-day I have
seen and heard from several of them and
that is a good many out ot that number
that are for me and intend to support me.
QUITE NATURAL TO ACCEPT.
"What was I to do in that convention?
Say that it had no authority to nominate
me? I had 'no doubt about their authority.
Tbey had no donbt about it. Put yourself
in my place. I wanted to go to Congress,
but was content to wait and bide my time.
They nominated me almost unanimously.
It was the natural thing for me to accept it,
and I do not know that I have committed
any breach of faith, or violated any law, or
committed any crime, or wronged anybody
in accepting it. I do not know any reason
on earth why that convention could not
make a nomination.
"Now, I'will be elected. I do not think
there is any question about that, and my
friends do not think so. I have had assur
ances from a great many strong men, and
am getting them all the while. I have al
ways been a worker in the Republican
party, but if the people in my district do
not want me to go to Congress I do not want
to go. I think this nomination was regular.
It is the nomination of a dark horse, which
has been done many, many times. We have
precedents for it even in national conven
tions. It is among the possibilities in every
convention, as everybody knows. I was not
a candidate before the convention; not seek
ing the nomination. It came to me volun
tarily, witbout the asking, and was a selec
tion by a majority of all tbe delegates inHhe
district, and I do not see for the life of me
why I am not the regular nom'nee."
Colonel Stone is very apparently in an
easy condition of mind. The only thing
that seemed to worry him yesterday was the
temperature.
WHY HASTINGS CAME HERE.
lie Una Ula Era on the WaahlOEtoa County
Primaries.
The meaning of the visit of General
Hastings and R. B. Stone to Pittsburg
leaked out yesterday. The primaries in
Washington county will be held to-morrow,
and delegates will be elected to the State
convention. Washington county will have
three delegates in the State convention, and
a lively contest is going on. One set of
candidates is for Hastings and Montooth,
the other for Delamater. Editor Ernest F.
Acbeson, of the Washington Observer, came
to Pittsburg early yesterday morning, and
saw General Hastings. Mr. Aeheson has
no opposition in Washington- connty for
Congress, and to his friends he said yester
day that he thought the delegates to the
State convention would be lor Hastings.
R. B. Stone spent a day at Washington this
week, in the interest of his brother, the
Secretary of the Commonwealth, but re
ceived, it is said, very little encouragement.
The Delamater men in the county are
working hard to secure an uninstructed
delegation.
The county convention will be held in the
Washington town hall, at 11 o'clock next
Monday forenoon. Beside electing three
delegates to the State , convention, and
naming its candidate for Congress, the con
vention will nominate a State Senator, three
representatives, and a county ticket.
General Hastings departed yesterday
afternoon for the East He bad another talk
with City Treasurer Depniston about the ar
rangements for June 14.
SLEPT FOE A WHOLE DAY.
Mr. Keeb Goes to lite Country and Getn a
Good Real.
John N. Neeb, nominee for State Senator
in the Forty-second district, went to the
house of a friend in the country on Wednes
day morning and took a good rest. Be
slept nearly 24 hours. Yesterday he was
back at his desk as fresh as before the cam
paign opened.
Councilman A. W. Jackson, of tbe
Eighth ward of Allegheny, said yesterday
that the credentials which Louis Haas pre
sented to th Senatorial convention on Tues
day were genuine and signed by Mr. Jack
son with bis own hand. Haas, had he not
been ruled out, would have cast 111 votes
for Rutan.

THE DARK MISTER! OF COON HOLLOW
Yesterday afternoon; Dave Saunders and
George Hetmann, both urchins of an am
phibious nature, made a curious find. They
were manuevering an extemporized raft
along the south side of the Monongahela,
near the Pittsburg and Lake Erie Railway
yards, when they noticed a bottle float
ing down stream. The boys urged their
frail craft in pursuit and soon came up with
the bottle, which had struck another waif of
the river in shape of a piece of driftwood
and had been turned aside from its course.
Hetman fished up the prize, and found it
tightly stoppered with cork. The boys' jack
knives, however, were soon produced, and
the bottle opened. Iu it was found a small
roll of paper, wrapped around with a por
tion of rubber, evidently torn from an old
overcoat
AW APPEAIi tfOB HELP.
The boys eagerly cut the thread which
was knotted round the roll. and. opened the
papers, which looked exactly like fly-leaves
torn from a small book, and were covered
with a wretched scrawl. The manuscript
contained some execrable spelling, and nei
ther dae nor address of writer was given.
The letter, for such it proved to be, ran
thus:

them for a nickel. Ellis subsequently

states that he was about td send it to the
McKeesport authorities.
WORKING ON THE NEW THEATER.
Sir. Frlor 6ay tbe Tearing Down and Excn

Thomas W. Prior, business manager and
treasurer of the Chicago Opera House.regis
tered at the Anderson yesterday. He came
over from the Windy City in the morning
and returned in the evening to look'after
some of the details connected with tbe Dn
quesne Theater. Mr. Prior said the "Gov
ernor," as the boys called David Henderson,
will be here next Tuesday. He thinks the
work of excavation and tearing out will be
finished in two weeks so that they
can commence on the theater proper.
Mr. Prior stated that the manager
for the house had not been selected,
in fact, none of the men to be connected
with the theater have been named. Mr.
Henderson sometime ago thought it would
be necessary to send him here for tbe first
year, but he prefers to remain in Chicago
where he is known and where bis business
friends are. Mr. Henderson's brother pre
fers to be with the companies on the road.
It transpires now that Mr. Henderson has
a scheme to have theaters in New York, St.
Louis, Kansas City and some other cities.
The Pittsburg house is intended to be the
connecting link between New York and
Chicago.
PICKLE WAirom MEET.

The Board of Directors of the American
Preserve Company held the regular monthly
meeting at the headquarters on Fourth
avenue. Mr. Henry Williams, of Detroit,
stated that nothing was done outside of
looking over the reports for the month. The
trust is working nicely, and the outlook for
trade is good. It is still too early to pre
dict anything as to the result of the pickle
and vegetable crops. ,
Tbe vinegar men are happv. Mr. Will
iams said that when they explained to Mr.
McKinley what the passage of his bill for
bidding the manufacture of vinegar out of
low spirits meant, that he promptly sup
pressed it. He added that McKinley was a
line man, and if it hadn't been for the
Chairman tbe vinegar bill wauld have been
passed with the balance of the tariff meas
ure. A SURE-ENOUGH POSTMASTER.
Nominated br the President for the Second
Time, After flavins; Been Confirmed.
Telegrams from Washington state that
the President has nominated D. L. S. Neely
as postmaster at Sewickley. The peculiar
feature of the President's action lies in the
fact that he nominated Mr. Neely for this
office some time ago, and the nomination
was confirmed by the Senate ten days since.
The President also nominated Christopher
Sheets for postmaster at Braddock. There
is no opposition to eitherof these gentlemen,
and they will both be confirmed, Mr. Neely
for the second time, as the Senate is not
likelv to reverse itself.

the defendant purloined a bag of oats from
the prosecutor's stable.
At the hearing last night. Mr. Rodgers
had several witnesses present who proved
tor him the clearest kind of an alibi, and he
was accordingly discharged.

HOT STARTED IN A SALOON.
The Founder of an Oil City Presbyterian
Church Correeta a Widespread Story
How nn Unfortunate Barrel of Cider
Grew Into a Groarg-ery.
Mr. William H. Ewing, the veteran pe
troleum operator, corrects the story going
the rounds for years past that he started in
a drinking saloon tbe movement that built
the first Presbyterian church in Oil City.
Mr. Ewing says the meeting was not in a
saloon, but in the general store of Hud.
Williams, and the story of its being in a
saloon grew out of the fact that a barrel of
cider had been left at tbe store for delivery
to some customer.
Mr. Ewing says that one evening the at
tention of himself and some other oil men
was attracted by hearing some aged Presby
terian men and women holding prayer-
meeting in the second story ol a dilapidated!
old building. He. was not a member pf the
chnrcb, but his mother had' been an ardent
Presbyterian, and the meeting aroused
memories of his youth and her solicitude
for his spiritual welfare. Under the influ
ence of these recollections,' he said
to his associates: "Let us raise
money to build a church for
these poor people."
The idea took. He wrote a check for 81,
000, and others followed suit until $10,000
were on the board. The donation was gladly
received, and the recipients had a church
building erected On Cottage Hill. They
overreached themselves, bowever, and
hadn't money to clear the structure of debt,
and Mr. Ewing and the remainder of the
original contributors started another move
ment which liquidated the debt.
The embellished story that has floated
around was that the Methodists had secured
a church building, and that in a saloon Mr.
Ewing had remarked: "It's a blanked
shame to allow the Methodists to have
things all their own way; let's raise money
and build a Presbyterian church."
It is a fact, however, that relicious and
philanthropic work was frequently trans
acted very largely in saloons, in the oil
country, in the '60s.
ARTERIES OF ALLEGHENY.
Tbe Committee on Strecta Transacts a
Large Bualnes.
Much business wax transacted . at last
night's meeting of the Allegheny Street
Committee. Ordinances were ordered to be
printed for the grading and paving of Race
alley, Barber street, Sassafras lane, Kerr
street and Mulvey alley; construction of
sewer on Hamilton street and McFaddcn
street; changing name of Strickler alley to
Wood street, and regrading and repaving
portions of East Diamond and South Dia
mond streets. The following contracts were
awarded: Grading Haslage avenue, to W.
E. Howley, at 37 cents per yard; construct
ing sewer on Western avenue, to W. J.
Dunn, at $685; grading and paving Rhine
street, to Joseph Hastings, at $11,407 20;
grading and paving Braddock street, to
McNaucher & Son at ?2,GS0; grading and
paving East Ohio street, to Fred Gwinner,
Jr., at 531.19G 75.
Tbe awarding of the rontiact for cleaning
and repaving streets and furnishing curb
and gutter stone and rebuilding sewer drops
and manholes, was laid over to the next
meeting to secure intormation from the
Street Commissioners.
An ordinance for the regrading and re
paving with block stone the streets occupied
by the Pittsburg, Allegheny and Man
chester Passenger Railway line and the
Union Passenger Railway line, which nre
not to be repaved by the railway companies
under their acreement with the city, was
read. Mr. Hartman favored the ordinance,
stating that the city could follow right along
and pave tbe sides ot the streets as the rail
way companies paved its 16 feet between the
rails. It was remarked that the work would
cost about $500,000 and on motion the mat
ter was referred to the City Engineer for an
estimate of the cost
IT WAS QUITE WARM ENOUGH.
Much SuOerlnc, but Only One Death Be
aulte From Ycatcrday'a Hent.
Old Sol kept up his gait yesterday, and
succeeded in registering 90 degrees. The re
sult of this was to drive many persons to
drink. Some drank ice water, others lem
onade, but tbe appearance of down-town sa
loons would indicate that the majority were
satisfied with lager. The heat caused much
suffering in iron mills and glasshouses, but
the air was comparatively refreshing, and
but one death from heat was recorded. A
little shower in the evening -cooled the air
considerably.
Joseph Koepfel, an employe at Moorhead
& McCIeane's mill, dropped from excessive
heat and exhaustion about noon. He was
sent to the West Penn Hospital in an am
bulance, where he died two hours later.
Koepfel was 26 years of age, unmarried and
lived with his parents on Tustin, near Mil
tenberger street.

There is not any question now but that
the new scale to be adopted at the present
session ot the Amalgamated Association of
Iron and Steel Workers will be based on 56
per ton for puddling, or a 2-cent card. At
yejterday's session the matter was fully dis
cussed, and the sentiment of the majority
of the delegates was that the puddlers should
have an advance of 50 cents per ton.
After convening yesterday morning, the
wage scale was taken up and the discussion
on it lasted all day. At 630 o'clock the
convention adjourned and tbe matter had
not been settled. There is not any antipathy
on the part of any of the delegates toward
requesting the 50 cenU advance, but it is
only a question of how it shall be done.
The matter will be taken up again this
morning, when it will be settled. The ar
guments advanced yesterday by the pud
dlers were plain, straightforward, and based
on business ideas. The majority of the del
egates this year are young men, and it is
said their expressed views yesterday would
startle some of the older men.
ENTHUSIASTS NOT IS IT.
There was no hurrah or enthusiasm about
the discussion, but the matter was canvassed
caretully, and the best points put forward as
to why the advance should be asked for. It
was stated that in view of the fact that the
price of finished iron had gone up, there
was no reason wby the manufacturers could
not share some of tbe increased profits with
their employes. Many of the young men
were loaded down with statistics about the
"markets." Some of the delegates were of
the opinion that the market quotations were
incorrect, and were furnished by tbe man
ufacturers for the purpose ot creating a
false impression about bow much they were
receiving for their iron.
Prom present indications the present ses
sion will last fully four weeks. The con
vention last year was in session 18 days and
one night, and so far this year it is about
three days behind in the programme. The
manufacturers will not get the new scale
until the last of this week, ns it will take
fuliy a week to go over it. When the Scale
Committee reported yesterday, the following
memorandum of agreement was adopted.
It is the same as the agreement made last
year, and will, no doubt, be satisfactory to
the manufacturers:
COPY OF THE AGREEMENT.
We, of tbe first part, and
Lodge. No. State of Na
tional Amalgamated Association of Iron and
Steel Workers, of the second part, do hereby
agree that the following scales of prices, based
upon tbe Western Iron Association's card of
prices, shall govern the wages of tbe several
departments as herein stated, for one year,
commencing July 1, 1889. and ending June SO,
1S90. It is further agreed that no scale shall go
below the price paid on the Western Icon As
sociation's card selected as a basis. It is un
derstood. First That iron mills (except sheet Iron
mills) working steel shall nay price and one
half tor steel, but this shall not apply to mild
steel: that is, worklne that steel of which the
output of tbe mill shall be as great as when
working iron of the same sizes; bat when tbe
output of steel Is but three-fourths () of the
output of iron, the rnle price and one-half
price sball apply.
Second On all mills working iron or steel
weighing one hundred and sixty (ICO) pounds,
or over, extra help shall be fomished to tbe
neater, tne same to De paia oy tue company.
SOME OF THE DELEGATES FINED.
President Weibe notified several of the
delegates that be -had imposed fines of 25
cents each for missing the roll call yesterday
alternoon. A communication was received
from tbe Cigar Makers' International Union
No. 171of Allegheny, asking the indorse
ment of the blue seal. The matter was re
ferred to the Ways and Means Committee.
On motion it was decided that the time for
presenting resolutions be continued until to
day. A motion to change the hour ot ad
journing from 5:30 to 5 o'clock was defeated.
Secretary Martin stated yesterday that
not one word bad been heard from any of
the manufacturers about the scale. He
said it would be presented to them next
week. He would rather see the manufact
urers organized. If they were, the scale
would be presented to their scale committee,
but under the present circumstances it
would have to go to each individual manu
facturer.; BEADY FOE THE PICNIC.

SWITCHMEN ARE SATISiTED.
TIco Grand Master John Downey Speaks of
tbo bucceaa of Hia Work.
John Downey, Vice Grand Master of the
Switchmen's Association, registered at the
Scblossr yesterday. Mr. Downey is on his
return from a tour through the East in
structing the lodges about the changes
made in the constitution. At the time of
tbe trouble in Pittsburg a few months aito,
the changes in the constitution were ratified
here. Mr. Downey stopped over to see
some of his people here, and will leave for
Chicago this morning. He is a shrewd lit
tle fellow with a good guard over his
tongue, and he never says anythinc of im
portance about his work or organization.
"They say our association was not recog
nized by tbe railroads here," he bean,
"but that doesn't make any difference! I
only know that the men got a material ad
vance in wages, and that is what we worked
for. We are not standing on technicalities.
At present the railroad men are qniet and
satisfied with their pay; at least no com
plaints have been made. It is our business
to keep to ourselves what we intend to do,
and the men are trained not to give away
any state secrets. The general ot an army
couldn't afford to post his enemy."
MINERS STILL IN DEMAND.
Another Conference on tbo Dead Work
Scale to be Held To-Day.
W. P. Rend, the Chicago coal man, was
at the Anderson yesterday. Mr. Rend said
that miners were becoming more plentiful,

wanted. He has been importing miners
from other places.
The conference over the miners' dead work
scale will be held to-day in this city. John
B. Rae, the head of the United Mine
Workers, with the efficient Secretary of the
organization, Robert Watchorn, it was
Stated, would arrive in town to attend the
conference.' It seems the local miners' offi
1S90.
cials cannot settle the troublesome question,
and it may be probable the national officials
will be called in to tackle 1L 'The operators
say tbey will not grant a uniform scale, and
if any settlement is made it will be on the
natural advantages of each mine. This,
they claim, must be taken into considera
tion, and as each mine is different there can
be no uniformity for dead work.
TO SAKE NEW FREIGHT RATES.

Gathering.
A circular has been issued by A. T.
Douthett,Secretary, to the American Boiler
Manufacturers of the United States and
Canada for the third annual meeting to take
place in New York beginning July 1. The

his intention to be present, and will address

Talk on the Apprentice System, Over Which
the Recent Hitch Occurred.
At a meeting of Twin City Association,
No. 4 Journeymen Plumbers, last night, the
question of joining the General Association
of Steam and Gas Fitters was discussed at
some length, but no definite action was
taken.
The President of tbe association in calling
the special meeting, stated that a natter of
importance was to be settled, but vigorous
efforts to discover just what this important
matter was, availed nothing, as all who at
tended the meeting were adverse to giving
anything for publication. The supposition
is that rules were adopted governing ap
prentices, but no one could be found who
would confirm this.

A SUIT FOE BKEACH OP PROMISE.
Miss Mary Vanca Wants $10,000 for Her
Damaged Affections.
HEE LOVER TO BE AE RESTED ON A CAPIAS
Miss Mary Vance, a belle of Little Wash
ington, yesterday laid her bleeding heart on
the altar of Justice and demanded repara
tion for the jagged rent which now disfigures
that useful Organ. The lady thinks that
a proper, not to say a lavish, application of
currency might heal the wound to some ex
tent, leaving nothing but a scar and a semi
occasional ache. She therelore asks the
Allegheny county courts to compel John
Pfeirer to pay her the sum of $1,000 in hard,
cold cash for breach of promise.
Miss Vance dates all her troubles from a
picnic held at McKee's Rocks, on the
Fourth of July, 1887. There she met
Pfeifer. It was a case of love at first sight.
John loved Mary, and Mary found her beau
ideal in John. They wandered through the
classic groves of the picnic grounds, clam
bered hand in hand over the moss-clad
rocks, and went skiff riding. Then the
monotony was varied by John swinging
Mary until she become dizzy, whereupon
her gallant escort furnished her with un
limited lemonade and peanuts to settle her
turbulent digestive apparatus.
the courtship begun.
When the shades of evening began to fall,
and the mysterious voice of nature was
bushing the little birds 'to sleep, John and
Mary wandered afar from tbe brassy strains
of the band and the thumpety-thump-thump
oi. the dancers. John poured his
protestations of affection into Mary's
coy, but half willing ear, his
remarks being occasionally interrupted by
tbe hoarse bellow of a pessimistic bull frog
or the abrupt but cheerful chirrup of a
cricket. Finally Mary consented to John
visiting her at her home, and as they slowly
strolled back to their companions they bore
with them an atmosphere of their own
which softened the harsh outlines of the
rocks, and gave a picturesque coloring to
the most commonplace objects.
Pfeifer thereafter visited Miss Vance reg
ularly at her home. As the gram took a
golden hue he leaned over the front gate
and breathed soft words of love. When the
first tonch of frost played a chromatic scale
of yellow, red and brown upon tbe foliage
of the trees, John moved into the parlor,
and by tbe glowing grate continued his tale
of love.
Pfeifer's love continued to grow in ardor,
until In August, 1888, he asked Mary to
make her home in Pittsburg, where he
could visit her oftener. She consented, and
being an independent young lady, obtained
a position in this city to deiray expenses:
PBOPOSED AND ACCEPTED.
Thus time sped away, each learning to
love tbe other better every day. In May,
1889, Pfeifer proposed marriage, and was
accepted. Pfeifer suggested that he would
make arrangements for their wedding in the
near future, and Mary relying upon that
express agreement, the couple took up their
abode at No. 13 Bedford street.
Miss Vance says Pfeifer kept putting off
the wedding day until October, when Mary
insisted that he put his promise into im
mediate effect. Pleiler settled tbe dimculty
by sending Mary back to her parents at
Washington.
Miss Vance has waited for Pfeifer to re
deem her promise until yesterday, when she
entered this suit to obtain damages for her
self and her child. A warrant was issued
for Pfeifer's arrest.

THE CONTRACT IS HADE.

Sixth Street Brldsr.
The Committee from the Sixth Street
Suspension Bridge Company, having in
charge the work of fixing up the contract
with the Pittsburg, Allegheny and Man
chester road, met yesterday in the Fidelity
building. Mr. John B. Jackson stated
aftr the meeting that everything had been
satisfactorily arranged with the street
company. The form of contract and terms
were practically agreed to, and the attorneys
were instructed to prepare the papers. Mr.
Jackson added that if tbe contract had not
been made that of course a new suspension
bridge would not be built.
Some plans for the bridge have been pre
pared. The committee is waiting for an
other engineer to complete his work before
a selection of tbe style of bridge to be built
will be made. Mr. Jackson said that even
after all the plans are ready it will
take some time before a decision is reached.
The bridge will be as wide as Sixth street,
and new piers will have to be built, though
that has not been definitely settled. When
the work is commenced it will be pushed
rapidly, and the bridge people think it
won't be long after the road is completed
before the bridge will be ready." The street
company proposes to relay its tracks, and
put in the electric system which will take
some time.
