PATTISON IS ON TOP
He Has Fourteen of the Twenty-One
Delegates to the State Conven
tion From the County.
ALL CLOSE DISTRICTS CARRIED.
McWilliams and Boyle Assured of the
- dominations for County -Commissioners,
if Two ire Earned.
SEXaTOE QUA! SEES LOCAL LEADERS.
t Be Haintalns Bis Faith in the Selection of George
Wallace Delimiter.
The Democratic primaries were held last
evening, trom 5 to 7 P. at. The contests in
the county were for delegates to the County
Convention, as between Daniel McWilliams
and Dennis J. Boyle for County Commis
sioner, and for the Legislative district con
ventions between the Pattison and Wallace
delegates.
TJp to midnight Commissioner McWill
iams had received returns from districts
which cave him 53 delegates. In these re
turns he had carried the First ward, the
Twenty-ninth and the Thirty-first solidly.
His chief strength came from the boroughs
and townships. He carried Beltzhoover,
Knoxville, Braddock, Wiikinsbnrg, Brush
ton, Edgewood and Osborne boroughs and
Bterrett township. Returns were received
from no other places outside of the two
cities.
Dennis J. Boyle, up to 12 o'clock, had re
ceived assurances that his delegates had been
elected in 123 districts. He carried solidly
the Fourth, Filth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth.
2Jinth, Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth, Thir
teenth, Seventeenth, Eighteenth, Twenty
first, Thirtieth. Thirty-third, Thirtv fourth
and Thirty-sixth wards. In Allegheny 15
districts reported delegates for him, and he
has besides Elizabeth, Greentreeand Mill
Tale boroughs and Union township.
TWO OTHKE CANDIDATES.
Alexander "Wilson, the wholesale tobac
conist, who is a resident of the Eleventh
ward of Allegheny, claims to haTe carried
32 districts in Allegheny and three in Pitts
burg. James Tallan, of this city, has car
ried, as far as claimed, only the seventh pre
cinct of the Sixth ward and the third of the
Second ward. The two other districts of
the Second ward went for Mc Williams. In
the second district of the Second ward J. K.
P. Duff was elected for lie Williams with
out an opposing rote.
The Democratic leaders agree that the
convention on Tuesday must nominate two
candidates for County Commissioner. Boyle
and McWillianis will probably be the
ticket, and they will fight itout at the polls.
It is expected by Democrats themselves that
onlyne will be elected. Many of the
Boyle men are for McWilliams lor the
second nominee, and many McWilliams
men declare themselves secondly for Boyle.
The indications last night were that the
delegation to the State convention at Scran-
ton would stand id lor Jfattison, lor Wall
ace and 1 for Black. The returns received
indicate the election of the following from
the several Legislative districts:
how it looks sow.
FirstFrank Fertig and Frank Suehr,
Pattison.
Second Lee Frasher and Fred J. Man
ley, for Pattison.
Third Joseph Stokely and John Dunn,
Jr., for Wallace.
Fourth Charles Anderson and Alderman
John Burns, for Wallace.
Fifth Charles A. Fagan and Patrick
Joyce, for Pattison; James M. Gufiy, Ed
Wainwright and Patrick Foley, for Wal
lace, and Thomas Mullen, for Black, but for
Pattison if Black is not a candidate.
Sixth John W. Snee, J. E. Moran and
B. M. McKinney, for Pattison.
Seventh R. S. McCntcheon and Dr.
Albert Hare, for Pattison.
Eighth L.F. Holtzman and William A.
Kelly, for Pattison.
Some of the Democratic leaders maintain
that Allegheny county is entitled to 22
delegates, although the figures do not bear
this out. If 22 are allowed, either the
Fourth or the Seventh district will be al
lowed the extra delegate. The third dele
gate from the Seventh district, in that event,
win ue xjt. v onnston.
BECErVTXG THE EETTJES8.
Last night Mr. Boyle received his returns
at the County Democracy, while Mr. Mc
Williams' headquarters were established at
2fo. 140 Fifth avenue. Mr. Wilson was
located at the Girard House, in Alleghenv.
Each of thse three places was thronged
with Democrats who brought returns.
Many friends of Boyle, who believed that
they could control the convention, declared
in lavor of the nomination of only one can
didate for County Commissioner. This,
twlliani J. Brennen said, would be con
Jnry to the rules of the party.
Y ""aere will be a contest from the First
let of the First ward, where Matt
anaugh was delegate tor McWilliams
. Frank Murray "for Boyle. Separate
.maries were held and the convention
.ill be called upon to decide.
There was a split in the Third district of
the Twenty-fifth ward. Joseph A. Winter
halter was the McWilliams delegate, and
John W. Douthitt was up for Boyle. Win
terhalter claims that the inspector, a Dout
hitt man, would neither take the oath nor
allow any other person to be elected in his
place. The result was that no person voted
and the board signed a certificate for
Douthitt.
SOLID TOE SHALE.
On the south side of the river delegates
were chosen favorable to J. B. Shale for
Congress in the Twenty-fourth Congres
sional district. In McKeesport, Mr. Shale
polled a large vote, and the delegates from
there are for William A. Kelley, the Patti
son representative to the State "Convention.
Daniel McWilliams carried McKeesport
solidlv.
AJAX JONES' DBEAM.
A Visionary Folltlca! Mate Causes HIi Mind
to lie Perturbed.
Ajax Jones, the colored Demosthenes of
Pittsburg, has had a vision, and his spirit
is troubled thereat. He is an ardent Mon
tooth man. and therefore his spirit grieves
and he re uses to be comforted, even when
confronted with the old adage that "Dreams
go by contrairics."
Ajax retired to his couch on Friday night
after spending the day in de'tly scraping
the chins ot a number of our best citi
zens. His mind was full of politics, and he
sldmbered uneasily. Suddenly the wall of
his chamber disappeared, and in its place
he saw a scroll inscribed as follows:
President Speaker Reed.
Secretary of htate Baync
Governor Quay.
Lieutenant Governor Stone.
Assistant Postmaster General Hastings.
United btates Senator Fitter.
Ajax would like to know what this por
tends. THE MONTOOTH E00MEES.
How They Will Go Down to UarrlibnrK
Next Toeedny Morning.
The friends or Major Montootb, who hare
been looking after his interests in this end
of the State, hare completed all arrange
ments, and next Tuesday morning the Mon
tooth headquarters will be removed
to Harrisbnrg. The delegetion will oc
cupy a special train of six sleepers,
and will be accompanied by the Montooth
Band of 30 pieces. Uoon arriving at Har
risbnrg the delegation will march in a body
to the Lochiel Hotel, Major -Montooth's
headquarters. The partr will be headed by
Captain C. W. Batchelor.
The rumor current last night that a com
bination had been formed with Delamater
for Governor and Montooth for Lieutenant
Governor, was discredited by the
friends of the Major. One of thenf was
heard to say: "Major Montooth will
not accept second place with Delamater;
yon can put that down for a fact" The
thorough understanding that has existed
between Major Montooth and General Hast
ings since tne commencement of the cam
paign i significant, and may bear fruit be
fore the convention closes.
A telegram was received last night from
Harrisburg, stating that the Pennsylvania
Railroad had decided to sidetrack
the train of the Pittsburg Mon
tooth delegation at a cross street
one square from the Union depot This will
give the members of the partr the use of
their train and accommodations superior to
most of the hotels. Tickets will be readr
at headquarters to-morrow morning at 10
o'clock. The fare is $7 60 both ways, in
cluding sleeper and the use of sleeper in
Harrisburg.

FATHER MOLLINQEE'S ILLNESS.
The Tenernble Priest Not Nearly Bo Sick an
Ilna Been Reported.
The members of Father Mollinger's
church, on Troy Hill, were much alarmed
over the reported serious illness of their
pastor yesterday. Much consternation was
caused among the congregation, as they
feared that he would . not live. At tne
home of the venerable priest, it was
stated that his illness was serious,
but not such as to cause alarm among
the people. Father Mollinger was over
burdened by attending to all the visitors
who flocked "to Troy Hill on St. Anthony's
Day to receive his advice.
Dr. King, of Arch street, who is attend
ing the venerable divine, stated at a late
hour last night that the priest's condition
had improved during tbe night, that he had
been overworked and in conseqnence had to
take some rest and recuperate his strength.

THE
FEARS OF FOUE PLAT.
The Family of Thomas Pryle Think
His Death Mysterious.
NO CAUSE GIVEN AT THE INQOEST.
A Former Sonthside Resident Found, Dead
in Bed at Sharpsburg,
WITH HARKS OK HiS HEAD AND THROAT
The borough of Sh'arpsburg is consider
ably excited over the sndden and mysterious
death there, on Friday, of Thomas Pryle, a
resident of the Sonthside until a short time
ago, and whose parents still live in Whar
ton's row, on Sidney street, near Twenty
fifth street His wife and parents are led to
believe that there has been foul play, and
freely express this view of tbe case, though,
as yet, there is no positive evidence that
such is the case, and all is mystery.
Thomas Pryle was well known among
mill men on the SouthBide, where he has
worked in several mills. Some little, time
since he secured work at the Elba Iron
Works, in Sharpsburg, as a "drag-down,"
and boarded at the house of Mr. Sul
livan. Thursday night he went
to bed apparently as well as
usual, and Fridav moraine was found dead.
An inquest was held by Alderman Baird,
who had been deputized by Coroner Mc
Dowell to perform this duty. Yesterday
the body was brought to the home of his
father, on the Soutbside.
BUEIED BENEATH MXSTKRY.
This tells a part of the story, and there'is
yet that that may never be told. At the in
quest Mr. Sullivan said that be and the
deceased had taken a walk early in the even
ing, and that Pryle was perfectly sober.
Tliey came home, and Prvle sat in the yard
for a few moments and then went to bed
about 8:30 o'clock. He appeared rather
quiet in his demeanorbut nothing out of the
ordinary was suspected.
Mr. Sullivan's little boy went to bed in
the same room about 7:30 o'clock. About 3
o'clock in the morning Mr. Sullivan went
to call Pryle and found him partly out of,
bed and clinging to the 1)edpostj dead.
How long he had been in that position was
a mysterv, as the little boy knew nothing of
what had taken place.
After hearing a number of witnesses, a
verdict of "death from causes unknown"
was rendered, and the relatives of the de
ceased, over on the Sonthside, were notified
to take charce of the body.
E. A. Ward, the Southside undertaker.
brought the body to the house of Pryle's
parents. On an examination it was found
lhat the forehead, close to the hair, was
crazed, and had several little indentations
in it, which Mr. Pryle, Sr., said look as
though they were imprints of hob-nail shoes.
When the body was viewed last night Mr.
and Mrs. Pryle also pointed to a bruise on
.the top of the head and the left eye that
they said was black and blue, as though
from a blow.
HABD TO DETERMINE.
However, at the time the corpse was seen,
though the eye was black and blue, as Irom
a blow, it was hard to determine tor a cer
tainty, owing to the advanced state of de
composition of tbe body. They also said
that there were marks on the throat, as
though made by fingers.
The family was strongly of the opinion
that there had been foul play, though they
knew not how to account lor it. Undertaker
Ward was not satisfied with the appear
ances of the corpse, either, and finally Dr.
E. A. Mundorff was called in to make an
examination. The body had swelled and
decomposition was very rapid, it being
badly discolored. This" fact, with other
mysterious things, had led Mr. Ward to
think as he did. u
Dr. Mundorff was seen last night. He
said be was told that the man bad had fits
after drinking hard, and he thought from
what he saw and learned that the man had
died in convulsions. The appearance of
the muscles and other conditions pointed to
the fact, together with the position in which
the man was found. He said he found the
bruises, on the head, but they may have been
caused' by a fall during the night while
in a fit
SOT AT ALL CONTENTED.
The family declares that the deceased was
sober at the time of his death, and late last
night still persisted that things did not look
right, though they made no direct charge.
The coffin was closed up last night, and the
body will be buried to-day in St. Michael's
Cemetery.
Coroner McDowell says that as the man
died outside ot the city, no bnrial permit
was necessary, so tbe body, without further
examination unless other arrangements are
made will be consigned to the earth. The
members of tbe family are not satisfied, and
a further investigation will probably be
made by them.
THE LAW FOE IT.
Where the Officlalii Get Tbelr Authority for
Enforcing, the Peddlers' License.
Thirty-three peddlers' licenses were taken
out yesterday, among tbe applicants being a
number of agents forfiustallment houses.
Chief Brown does not expect any trouble, as
the law under which the officials are acting
is well defined. Tbe authority is given
them under an act of Assembly which be
came a law June 10, 1831, and reads as fol
lows: No person or persons shall be employed, en
caged or concerned in tbe business or employ
ment of hawking, peddling or selling croduce
or merchandise, or either or any ot them,
wlthm the limits of any city of the second or
third class within this Commonwealth without
bavlng previously taken oat a license; and if
any person or persons shall go from bouse to
house within the limits of such cities to sell or
offer or expose for ute such articles, or any of
them, without having paid such snm or tarns
as may be fixed by ordinance or Councils of
such cities into the treasury thereof and re
ceived a license therefor, the person or persons
so off enaintr shall forfeit and pay for each and
every offense the sum of Sol), to be recovered
summarily before tbe Major of such city
wherein the offense slialj have been com
mitted, provided, however, that nothing herein
contained shall be construed so as to prohibit
farmers, gtrdeners or dairymen from selling
tbe products of their own farms, gardens or
dairies.
NOT ENOUGH TO DECIDE.
The Grand Army Committee Postpone Talk
Aboat n Parade. "
The Grand Army Executive Committee
met in City Hall yesterday afternoon to de
cide whether Grand Army Day would be
celebrated with a street parade this year or
'observed simply by holding campfires iu
various parts of the city.
There was not a lull attendance of the
committee, and the members did not feel
like assuming the whole responsibility in
the matter, so tbey decided to call a meet
ing ot the general Grand Army Day Com
mittee of the two cities, to take place iu
Common Council Chamber Saturday after
noon, July 19, at 3 o'clock. 'The question
will then be decided.

PITTSBURG DISPATCH,
NOT AN OUTING.
THE ANNUAL ENCAMPMENT FOR MILL
TARY DUTIES ALONE.
New Roles of Conduct at Jilt. Gretna No
Ladles to be Allotved In the Camp at
Nlflit Visitors and Their Meats What
-Is Thought ol It All.
Ladies will not be allowed to 'remain in
camp over night at the division encamp
ment at Mt. Gretna this summer, and the
entertainment of visitors will be curtailed as
far as possible. By commaud of Brigadier
General Snowden, Assistant Adjutant
General North hss issued circular
No. 1, marked "confidential," in regard
to the regulations of camp. In the circular
he says that while ladies and children are
always welcome, it has been found their
presence is detrimental to military dis
cipline. He says: "In encampments here
after to be held, they will not be permitted
to remain over night." In regard to rations,
the circulars read that their consumption
by visitors and others has led to complaints
from the men. To entertain a visitor at
table hereafter it will be neceisary to ob
tain the consent of the Captain or First
Sergeant.
Colonel T. J. Hudson, Commandant ol
theartillery service of the State, was seen
yesterday, and when asked about the cir
cular, said: "At the last encampment at
Mt. Gretna, three years ago, I had consider
able trouble on this accoaut, and am glad to
see General Snowden take the matter up. I
had a nutnberot complaints from the men
about not getting enough to eat, and in my
report to the Adjutant General I recom
mended that some measures be taken
to stop the abuse. We get so much
money every year to run the Guard, and so
many rations are issued to so many meu.
When a number of visitors are run in every
day and eat up the provisions, the supply
will of course run short about the last two
or three days. I also recommended prohib
iting ladies in the camps after night. We
are always glad to see them during the day,
but when they stay over night their hus
bands, or brothers, as the case may be, have
to attend to their wants and comforts. This
detracts from the military duties. The la
dies have been provoked at me for my ac
tion, but I did it in the best interests of the
service. The idea ot holding camps each
summer is to give the men instruction in
military life, and it is not an annual out
ing." Colonel N. M. Smith, commander of the
Eighteenth Begiment, said: "I think it-is
an excellent idea, and as far as the Eigh
teenth's camp is concerned, the order will
be enforced to tbe letter. The regiment had
had iewer ladies in camp at night than any
other regiment in the State at the last
division encampment. The presence of
ladies puts a restraint on the soldiers' free
dom of intercourse off duty."
Captain William M. Awl, of the Eigh
teenth, said: "Our regiment has alwavs
tried to impress on the men the advisability
of leaving the ladies at home. They are
Eeriectly welcome to come during the day,
ut a soldiers' encampment at night is not
the proper place lor ladies. There is no
doubt that their presence in the camp has a
good effect on the men, but it is contrary to
military discipline."
WE'LL ALL BE SATISFIED
WITH THE COMPLETE RETURNS OF
ALLEGHENY COUNTY.
Sir. Oliver Cnrefnlly Compnrlna" the Returns
With Data li Ills Possession A Contrn
arina and 70-Year-Old Twins An Ob
stinate Hungarian In Jail.
Census Supervisor Oliver said yesterday
that the returns were coming in rapidly and
the work was generally very well done. He
is comparing the returns with the last cen
sus, with recent voting lists and with tbe
directory, and he is confident that very few
persons are being missed, and that tbe resi
dents of Allegheny county will be
very well satisfied when the totals are pub
lished. Further than this he-would not say.1
One enumerator made his returns Friday,
but said he was afraid he might have missed
some people in large boarding houses,
where he bad been put off from time to
time. He was ordered to inform the keep
ers of these houses that they must obtain
the necessary information Irom their board
ers and hare it in readiness for the enumer
ator or be prosecuted. Tbe enumerator ob
tained 100 additional names, making an in
crease of 8 per cent in bis returns.
Mr. Oliver is investigating all the cases
reported of persons who have been missed by
the census, but finds in nearly every case
that the enumerator has obtained the infor
mation in good shape.
An Allegheny enumerator yesterday ran
against a man who claimed to be 100 years
old. nud another enumerator discovered 70-year-old
twins.
John Slezak, a Hungarian, is in jail,
where he can reflect on his obstinacy in re
fusing to answer the census questions. The
information was made by George Lawless,
a census enumerator of Braddock, before
United States Commissioner McCandless.
It was shown at the hearing yesterday after
noon that Slezak refused to ansner even
when interrogated by an interpreter. He
was committed to jail for a further hearing
to-morrow. This is the first case in this
district where a man has been sent to jail
for persistent obstinacy in dealing with
census enumerators.

A Fight Between Two Electric Companies
Cols lbs Rates.
The advent of a new electric light com
pany into Wilkinsburg has been nofc with
out benefit to the business men and others
who use electricity for lighting purposes.
The new company commenced by cutting
the rates. Now the East End Company,
that heretofore had the monopoly of the
business, has retaliated by putting their
price at 60 per cent lower than their regular
charges.
This affects only the private consumers,
the Wilkinsburtr Company having the con
tract for the street illumination of tbe
borough. The East End Company is making
yearly contracts at its reduced rates, and a
very pretty fight between tbe corporations is
imminent. The East End Company has
also removed the charge of 25 cents a month
for the use of the meter.

A Party of New York Art Stndents Going;

A party of New York art students were
in the Union depot last night, busily identi
fying valises and mysterious bundles of no
particnlar shape, which undoubtedly con
tained any amount of paint boxes, easels
and other sketching necessaries. Mr. Frank
Duncan was the huip m 'iiiver of tbe
party. He said, while twirling a pair of very
fierce mustaches: "'i- -aui j ..iiu here, or
rather make this city our headquarters for a
day or two. Then we will eo up the Pitts
burg and Western and sketch a little on the

represented in two diflerent organizations
can work in harmong with each other. Tbe
reports will show that while a few small
local assemblies have withdrawn, the Dis
trict has made great advances during the
quarter, and is at present in a good financial
standing.
The brass molders and brass finishers of
L. A. 2003 and 1710 will hold a meeting at
2 o'clock this al ternoon at K. of L. Hall,
No. 101 Fifth avenue, to take appropriate
action on the death of Mr. Bobinson.
Some of the assemblies which lelt D. A.
3, are returning to tbe organization. A lit
tle over two years ago, all of the assemblies
composed of cigarmakers withdrew from the
district and formed a National Trades dis
trict. Local Assembly 1374 went out and
joined the National d istrict, wi th the idea that
by concentrating their lorces in one organi
zation tbey could more successfully combat
the wroners to which they claimed to be sub
jected. They now feel it more beneficial to
be in D. A. 3 and are recorded on the books
ot General Secretary Hayes as having with
drawn from the National district and at
tached'to D. A. 3.
The ac'ion of the boiler makers in the
direction of shorter hours will be indorsed,
and other important business will be trans
acted. Master Workman Evans expects to
have very resnectable reports as the result
of his first quarter's work.
DEATH OF ECCXES B0BINS0K.
The Well-Known Lnbor nnd Temperance
Ijcadcr Passes Avray.
Eccles Bobinson, one of the best known
temperance lecturers and labor leaders in
the city, died unexpectedly at his home on
Washington avenue, Allegheny yesterday.
The deceased was nearly 40 years old, and was
the grandson of the late General William
Bobinson, the first white man born in Alle
gheny. Mr. Bobinson was well
educated, and his father. William O'Hara
Bobinson, intended he should enter a pro
fession. In early life, however, he expressed
a determination to learn a trade and served
an apprenticeship as a brass molder. He
followed this occupation for a number of
years. He soon became identified with the
labor question, and was at the head of the
half-holiday movement for molders which
was conceded by the majority of the bosses.
Later he discovered the plan was injuring
the business of the employers and he in
duced the men to give it up.
When the brass molders left tbe Knights
of Labor Mr. Bobinson went with them and
was made the first National Master Work
man of their union. He was elected as a
delegate to D. A. 3, in 1887, and in 18S8 was
elected Worthy Foreman of that organiza
tion under John F. tDoyle, Master Work
man. Mr. Bobinson represented the Pitts
burtr Tube Works strikers before the Arbi
tration Committee a few years ago, and won
the strike for the men The last work he
did as a labor advocate was to fill the posi
tion of associate editor o( the Commoner
and Glasstcorker, which he did in an able
and creditable manner. He was a bright,
genial gentleman, a fluent orator and ns a
temperance advocate, held meetings in a
number of cities throughout the country.
He was associated with Francis Murphv
for two years, and did much effective work
in the temperance line. He stumped the
State of Indiana for Harrison, and was
credited by Chairman Huston with being
one of the most effective workers in the last
campaign. The deceased leaves a wife and
and child.
SETTLED THE STEEL SCALE.
Manufacturers Satisfied With Iho Demands
of tbo Amalgamated Blen.
The Amalgamated Association settled the
steel wage scale yesterday. The men in the
steel departments wanted a 10 per cent ad
vance this year, and their demands created
a pretty warm discussion in the convention.
The scale was finally settled satisfactory.
As for the Western iron scale the manu
facturers appear to be pleased, and the indi
cations are that the document will be signed
without any difficulty. Several manu ac
turers have already told members of the as
sociation they would sign. Under the rules
of the Amalgamated Association it must be
sinned by July 15. It is now about settled
that tbe convention will adjourn next
Wednesday.
HEW TBADE DEPABTUBE.
Chambers-McKre Adding- Another Branch to
Their Grenl Factory.
The Chambers-McKee Company has put
in a Tilghman & Matthewson sand blast
machine, with which they propose to ob
scure and decorate glass. Sand and gravel
and an oscillating table has heretofore been
used fpr this purpoie at a few of the fac
tories, but the process is of necessity very
crnde and primitive.
The sand blast machine will be a new
trade departure. It will expand the glass
industry and improve the quality of glass
made. It will also be an advantage to
dealers in giving them this class of eoods
from first hands at manufacturers' prices.

SUNDAY DESECRATORS.
Tbey Make Life Sad in O'Hara and Shaler
Townships nnd on Brnnot Island Form
ers Organize to Vigorously Protect
Themselvrs In the Future.
For several Sundays past tbe farmers of
O'Hara and Shaler townships have been
greatly annoyed by crowds of people who seek
the country Irom city wards. LastSundav a
crowd of toughs had a pitched battle with a
Shaler township farmer, who ordered them
off his premises, and were only persuaded
to leave by tbe application of a pitchfork to
defensive purposes. The grangers have
formed an organization to resist the appro
priation of their lands to picnic purposes,
and lively times are expected if the tres
passers make their usual Sunday trips, to
day. In an interview, one of the farmers
said yesterday: "We have stood these pic
nic parties for several years, and each sea
son they grow worse. Formerlv they asked
permission :to use our land, but now they
camp out, tap their beer, and assault us if
we remonstrate. Why. only last Sundav a
mob of these people nice and respectable
looking they were, too camped in my pas
ture, and milked three cows. -When I ob
jected one of them drew a revolver, and
said thev would go when they got ready. In
view of these actions we have agreed to
stand by one another, and the gangs to
morrow will strike a pretty big snag."
Brunot Island lurnishes a parallel case,
though the farmers there consfder that they
have an added grievance in that they pay
Allegheny City for police protection, which
they do not get. They say the grievance
has been greatly aggravated and extended
since work began on the Ohio
Biver Connecting Bailway bridge, as
it attracts many people. Toughs,
male and female.and the latter the toughest,
take possession of whatever mav suit them,
and care nothing for meum et tuum, and all
the inhabitants of the island would be un
able to dislodge them. The island is a part
of the Ninth ward of Allegheny, and pays
taxes for several things of which they can
not partake, but the people insist that they
should at least have two or three po
lice on the island to assist them
in keeping city savages in order, if
not ofl private property, and for that
matter, all is private except the strip occu
pied by the bridge company. Last Sunday
night the Isbmaelitcs were caught in the
the violent storm, but they coolly took pos
session of the Herron Hill Shooting Club's
quarters. The islanders would doubtless be
almost willing to allow the club to shoot ou
Sunday if its members would agree to pep
per the vandalic hordes that congregate on
that day.
TAKEN BY BTOBJI.
Sonthsldo Police Onlcers Mobbed While
Trying to Arrest Two Disorderly Men.
Inspector McKelvey and Special Officer
Corrigan had a lively experience about 10
o'clock last night in an attempt
to arrest Frank Cregan and J.
B. Davis on Carson street, near
South Twenty-fourth street. The officers
were strolling along Carson street when
Cregan met Davis and struck him a blow in
the face, which was auswered in kind. Be
fore they had time to gat well under way
Officer Corrigan had seized Cregan and the
Inspector was performing the same duty to
ward Davis. Corrigan had no difficulty in
taking his man to a patrol box and
putting him into the wagon when it
arrived. He was scarcely in the wagon
however, before he leaped over the hand
rail and started up the street at a dead run.
He was soon recaptured by Special Officer
Corrigan.
As soon as the inspector had placed Davis
nnder arrest he and his prisoner were sur
rounded by several people who laid hold of
him. In the tugging and pulling he was
shoved all over the sidewalk and finally
into the entrance to an alleyway. At this
place his prisoner had been carried away
bodily and tbe entrance blocked.
In the scuffle that had taken place for the
possession of the inspector's prisoner, Mrs.
Hearbe had pulled and, hauled the inspector
around, thrown dirt and gravel into his face
and struck officer Lewis in the face with a
stick, cutting his mouth severely.
Davis was recaptured a short time after
by Inspector McKelvey, and just following
it came the arrest ol George Hearbe, who
had taken a band in the scuffle. Half an
hour later Mrs. Hearbe came into the
station to negotiate for the release ot her
son and was also placed under arrest.

Business and Pleasure Combined.
C. H. Booth, the pig iron manufacturer,

Mr. Booth laughingly put aside all shafts

more impervious to their assaults. "I am

it is my own business, don't you see? The

A LAW FOR TBE B0AED OP HEALTH
To EmpoiY-er It to Eradicate These Pestilence-Breeders.
SOME MOKE OE THESE PLACES LOCATED
One hundred and twenty Italian laborers
arrived in Pittsburg yesterday. About 60
had come direct from Italy, and the others
were railroad laborers whose, jobs had been
completed, and came to town to look for
work. They billeted themselves on the dif
ferent Italian lodeing houses. There was
no difficulty in obtaining quarters. Men
who sleep anywhere from four to 12 in a bed
don't grumble at having another sleeper
crowded in.
Detective McTighe, who probably knows
as much or more about this city than any
other one man, says that over 500 Italians
arrived herein the past week. "It is only
about 12 or 13 years ago," said Detective
McTighe last night, "when there were but
15 Italians in this city, and they were very
respectable people, belonging to an entirely
diflerent class to those who are now coming
here iu droves. It was' not until natural
gas became such an important factor in
Western Pennsylvania and created a de
mand for thousands of laborers that Italians
came here in such numbers. There is a
peculiar feature about them, too. They
always live in colonies and drive every
other nationality out of the neighborhood.
Virgin alley, Tunnel street. High street and
other streets on the hill used to be occupied
by respectable Irish. Now the Italians are
in fnll possession."
NO LACK OP POWEB.
Inspector McAleese, in talking last even
ing aDout the necessity or purifying these
Italian plague spots, pointed out the fol
lowing section of the law relating to the
powers of Boards of Health:
In case of pestilence or epidemic disease, or
of dancer from anticipated or impending pesti
lence or epidemic disease, or in case tbe sani
tarv condition of the city should be of such a
character as towarrantlt.it shall be tbe duty
of tbe Board of Health to take seen measures
and to do and order and cause to be 4006 such
acts for the preservation of tbe public health
(though not herein or elsewhere authorized) as
It may in good faith declare the public salety
and health demand.
"There is no question," said Inspector
McAleese, "that these places threaten the
city with pestilence, and immediate aad
string remedies should be applied at once.
Their existence in tbe midst of a population
ot halt a million human beings is an out
rage upon tbe rights ot good citizens. The
lower class of Italians who immi
grate to this country do not add
anything to its wealth or strength.
They spend far les for living expenses than
the Chinese, and tbe latter are infinitely bet
ter citizens. The Chinese are cleanly in
their personal habits, and are quiet and
generally law abiding. As soon as an
Italian has saved $300 or $100, and he can
generally do that in less than two years, be
puts the'money in his pocket and returns to
his native country to live for the balance of
his days."
Detective Bendle, the speak-easy expert,
knows something about the average Italian
lodging house, as he has assisted in raiding
several of them where liquor fs illegally
sold. He says that at No. 112 Third ave
nue over 100 Italians find shelter and rest.
In three rooms on Hijrh street 130 ot these
people give themselves over to sweet dreams
of their vine-clad hills and breathe carbonic
acid gas all night.
Close to the Central station, off Diamond
street, is a little alley that thousands of per
sons pass daily without noticing it except
by sense of smell. The police estimate that
100 Italians have their household gods set
up therein.
A,KAPID BOAS TO FORTUNE.
In one court off Tunnel street a census
enumerator obtained 350 uames, and it is
hard to tell how many more he might have
found if his stomach had been stronger.
On Fourth avenue recently an Italian
rented two rooms at $4 a month. If the
Board of Health doesn't interfere pretty
soon this man's fortune will rival that of
Jay Gould's, as he has taken 60 lodgers at
$1 a week each, thus making a clear profit
ot $2,832 a year from two rooms.
At Homewood. there is a cabin 20x40 feet,
in which 150 Italians cook, eat and sleep.
It is a pleasant Sabbath sight to watch 150
men baking, each one making enough rye
bread to last him until the next Sunday.
There are many, perhaps hundreds, of
similar plague spots in the city, and the
police are looking them up in order that
they may be able to assist tbe Board of
Health when it makes a move against them.
