They Had Little or Nothlnc to Do on the Race Ground. The East End police were prepared for a lively time at the Homewood races, yesterday, and a large squad of officers were on hand, bat suffered disappointment. Only one arrest was made at the park, and that was a youne man named K. J. Hendricks, who got into the ladies' section of the grand stand and acted in a manner that was disorderly. Hendricks was arrested by Ofricer Kennedy, and placed in the Nineteenth ward station. BOUND TO BE BUfiNT. TO TEED FLAMES THE FATE OF A NORTHSIOE DISTRICT. Five Firemen More or Less Injured More Mysterious Fires to be Investigated The Bnildtncs Covered by Insnrauce Valued ot SGG.O0O. "Within the last ten days three destructive fires have played havoc with that portion of Allegheny in the vicinity of Biver avenue and Balkham street, lesterday afternoon about 4:20 o'clock flames broke from the large woolen mills of Bradley, Barker & Co., located within a stone's throw of the lumber yards destroyed by fire last Thursday, and directly opposite the Porter foundry and Hun ter's lime works, attacked by fire the previous Saturday. Alarms from boxes El and 75 brought the Allegheny Fire Department to tbe scene. A wing of tbe building, "the old mill," was rapid ly consumed by the flames, and shortly before 5 o'clock a larjre part of the front wall fell into tbe street. Wild cries of alarm arose from the thousands gathered on the spot when tbe fall ing all fell upon an extension ladder which several firemen were climbing. The men had a miraculous escape from death. Foreman Henry Renziehauscn, of tbe Troy Hill Engine Company, had his foot badly crushed. William Sikes sustained slight in juries on the head. Henry Lights was badly cut, while George Biechle, of tbe Columbia Company, had his arm broken. The injured men were immediately taken home. The fire was not brought under control until the old mills and the upper part of the new mill had been badly damaged. The old struc tures were three-story brick buildings, valued at Si 0,000 each. The loss on the boiler bouse, which wag burned out, is placed at 5,000. About 40.000 worth of machinery was ruined, making the entire loss 60,000, which Mr. J. A. Bradley said was covered through James W. Arrott's ageacy. Included in this loss is a great number ot Scott's patent gas regulators, and tbe machinery for making tnem. Tbe Scott patent is an English one, and Bradley, Barker A Co. are the solo agents in this country. Mr. Bradley said last night: "The mills were closed down in November, 1SS9, because the nigh tariff on wool had knocked tbe profits off tbe business, and no fire had been used about them siuce, witn the exception of about two weeks in March, when steam was Kept up." The fire department was prevented from go ing to tbe mill, fire at once on account of a blaze in a small bell tower on top of tbe car penter shop at the Washington street shops of tbe Fort Wayne Hallroad. The fire did not amount to anything, and when Chief Jones heard the alarm f mm Box 75 strike he imme diately ordered the steamers to go to the mill fire, which was extinguished at 9 o'clock. The cause is a mystery. WANTS HIS FEATHER BEDS. A Man ii bo Can't Krep Warm in Such Weather a This, v A German entered the office of United States Commissioner McCandless yesterday "on a hunt for two feather beds. He said he had been sleeping on straw since he came to this coun try, and recently his mother sent two feather beds to him from Germany. The beds were detained at the Custom House in .New York for duty. He claims they are for his personal use. and there should be no duty. Ho was directed to tbe Custom House to nifkc an affidavit that tbey were for personal use, when they will be forwarded to him. Want an Independent Club. There It considerable talk in the Sixth ward, Allegheny, of organizing a Young Men's Inde pendent Republican clnb. A meeting will likely be held on Saturday to promote the object. ft WHARF OR ft PARK. What is Thought of the ConYiction of Chief Bigelow for Attempt ing an Improvement. MAYOR G0DELET SORRY FOR IT, And the Matter is Generally Begretted by Officials and Fablfc - Spir ited Citizens. EIYEEJIEN GENERALLY ARE KICKERS. What iliffht be Done ir the EubWsh Sow on the "ffharf Were Only Cleared Away. The conviction of Chief Bigelow was the principal topic of conversation about City Hall yesterday. Controller Morrow sent him a sympathetic communication, and the Mayor volunteered to use his influence, iu case Mr. Bigelow was sent to the work house, to secure him a soft position at exer cising the cattle in the bull ring at Clare mont. Butoberly, in speaking of the case, Mayor Gourley said: "It has always been a question in my mind whether the city of Pittsburg had any right to change the wharf. I think the State laws would prevent even the Councils from ordering any changes. There is no doubt that changes are needed. The wharf has been a disgrace to Pittsburg. The citi zens have used it as a dumping ground. The manufacturers have made use of it to store their iron, and. the lumber men have covered it with board piles. They have en joyed these privileges free for years, and of course they fight against giving them up. The wharf has been used more for pri vate purposes than for the objects for which it was intended. WOULD HATE BEEN A BENEFIT. "If I understand Mr. Bigelow's plans, the change would have been a great benefit to the city. The wharf should be leveled, and the building of a stone wall would make a better harbor. I don't know whether he in tended to make part of it a park, but such could be done and still leave the wharf in better shape for the steamboat than it is at present I do not know what legal steps would be necessary to get around the State law. "As for making a Point Park," the Mayor continued, "and preserving the Block House, I don't see how it can be done for some years. We could not ask Mrs. Schen lev for the ground after all she has done. It would not be policy for the city to buy it. "We are too poor. After the city ex pends a reasonable amount of money in beautifying Schenley Park, we onght to next devote ourselves to' clearing off the debt I am in iavor of going a little bit slow until we can get our heads out of the water." AT SEA IN -THE MATTER. Controller Morrow said he did not have any idea of what tbe legal steps would be toward improving the wharf. He said he was at sea in the matter until he could give it more study. Chief Bigelow only said he wonld appeal the case, and did not care to give any further opin ion about it at present City Attorney Moreland said tbe only thing they could do was to appeal, and that action would be taken inside of three days. In speaking of the result of the snit against Chief Bigelow, Mr. Samuel Hamilton said yes terda: T am sorry Mr. Blcelow was convict ed. Had I been one of the jury I should have hesitated very much before 1 would have voted for conviction. I suppose the Chief was tech nically guilty of tbe charge, but be should have been allowed to proceed with his work, when, I am snre, he would have creatly improved the wharf. I would be very glad to see his park E reject carried out, and tbe Allegheny wharf eautifled, especially that part lying between the Sixth street bridge and tbe Exposition grounds. The condition of that wharf to-day is a disgrace to the city. Private parties use it, and have used it for years, as a place for dump ing all sorts of material, and the place is an eyesore to everybody. "Mr. Efeelow is one of our most public spirited officials, and public sentiment should sustain him in his efforts to improve the city's property. If ne were allowed to carry out bis park project on the wharf between the bridge and the Exposition buildings we wonld have a beautiful approach to those buildings that would be a credit to tbe city. Then tbe more tbe Point district is beautified tbe sooner will the old rookeries in that section be disposed of, and decent and respectable looking houses take their place. Such a park would be ele vating and educating in its effects upon the people, and I for one would be pleased to see Sir. Bigelow's plan carried oat Sorely the city has a right to improve its own property. The people who have been occupying that wharf as a dumping ground are the ones guilty of causing a nuisance." rr -wouldn't cost much. A call was made at the office of tbe Exposi tion Society in search of Mr. Johnston, the gen eral manager of the Exposition, who is known to have studied this wharf question thorough ly ana bow the place might be improved, but that gentleman is in the East looking for at tractions for the coming Exposition. Mr. Johnston has given mnch thought to the sub ject and has often said the so-called wharf can be beautified at very moderate expense and be made like the famous Thames embankment on a small scale. He says that what little useful ness it now has as a wharf need not be de stroyed, as floats and landings for the handling of material could be provided. His argument is that a park between the bridge and the Exposition buildincs wonld have a two-fold use. As a Dark it would have its esthetic use, and provide a pleasure ground for the purpose, while at the same time it wonld compel or necessitate the immediate re moval of freight or building materials that mi"ht be deposited on the landings or floats instead of being piled up in such unsightly heaps as at present. a. S. Marvin. President of the Exposition Society, was very emphatic In regretting the, outcome of the suit against Chief Bigelow, and the consequent delay in the hoped-for Improve ment of tbe wharf. Mr. Marvin said: 'The Exposition Society has worked wonderful changes in the Point district by the erection ot permanent buildings. Tbe beautifying of the grounds is now going on, and if the unsightly rubbish that occupies tbe wharf were removed the change would be still greater and more Gratifying. The oulldingof a wall and filling In of tbe wharf wonld not impinge upon tbe waterway. Tbe river would deenen iu own bed, just as the -Mississippi did when the Eads system of jetties was established at New Orleans. , SOBBY FOE THE INTERFERENCE. "Mr. Bigelow has proposed to reclaim the wharf from its disgraceful condition, and I am sorry he has been interfered with. His efforts at tbe improvement of the public hichways have been very commendable, indeed, and the men who retard this improvement certainly possess very little pnblic spirit But it's tbe old spirit so long displayed by some people in this city, who, unless they have their own way in everything, become dissatisfied and degen erate into chronic kickers. It Is amazing that all cannot see tbe propriety of beautifying the wharf and making the approach to tbe Exposition an attractive one. There need be no difficulty in regard to landings. Tbe objection that if the wharf were utilized for park purposes, there would be no way for re ceiving freight, is not a sound one. A jjaved streetor two could be run through to thJpind injrs, and fnrnlsh room for handling tbe material. This place is a wharf only in name, anyhnw. for since the buildlngof tbo low Union bridge it has little or no usefulness as a wharf. Private parties oecupy tbe wbarf now, and do .not pay the city 1 cent for the privilege. They "should be evicted and the city allowed to pro ceed in improving its own property." George A. Kelly said: "I have not given this subject much attention, bnt I am aware that private individuals have long nsed tbe wbarf for private purposes, without paying the city for the privilege. Tbe wbarf as it now iJ fur nishes a very unsightly picture, indeed." WORSE THAN PHILADELPHIA. Colonel James B. Scott thought It was a huge joke to restrain Chief Bigelow from making an improvement "Why, that's bad enough for Philadelphia," salS he, turning to a gentleman from tbe Quaker City, who was present in his office. "This so-called. wharf cannot get in a much worse condition than it is at present and change wonld be for tbe better, what wonld the people do who hare taken possession of tbe wharf, with their old wagons and rubbish, if the wbarf was improved! The wall proposed by Mr. Bigelow could do no harm. The rise lu the river would be perpendicular. Instead of spreading over the entire wharf. If the wall la made so vessels could come up to it It would be a great improvement hut a river whose stage of water varies from 1 to 80 feet is pretty difficult to control, and a park, if one is made, would often be inundated." Commodore Joseph Walton, when seen, said: "We signed the petition to restrain Chief Bige low. I think the wharf should be preserved for the purpose for which it was Intended." Other rirermen coincided with Mr. Walton's views, as steamboatmen as a class have been and are very jealous or any infringements upon what they deem their rights. An Inspection of the wbarf yesterday from the Sixth street bridge to the Exposition build ings showed that private firms use the wharf for other purposes than that for which it was originally intended. An inventory of the con glomeration of materials on the cround shows a consignment of hooppoles, scores of lumber piles, tons ot scrap iron, a choice selection of dilapidated old boilers, piles of old bricks, rnb bistrfrom many sources and a miscellaneous collection of dirt in general, that makes tbe warning: "Place no dirt or.rubblsh here," that Is posted in one place, seem rather facetious and ridiculous. S. B.W.GILL, LOST TO SIGHT, Bnt to memory Dear, Will be Resurrected in RcslDtcr Shnfcr's Office on Friday Mr. Shnfcr Ready to Settlo With Uncle Sam. Quite a number of people remember S. B. W. Gill, a man who did business about 20 years ago in this city on the same principle as that of some banks, who secure a large line of deposits by paying large in terest A lady named Howe run a bank in the East some years ago on the same princi ple. Like most ventures of this kind the resnlt was the same as tbe Irishman's jump. It was all right but the stop was painful. Pious people were Mr. Gill's dupes. There came a day in the fall of 1877 when he reached the end of bis tether, but before a confiding public could shake bands and say goodby he was gone, but not forgot ten, especially not in Sunday school circles. Among the victims was tbe widow of Rev. Dr. Cooper. Gill having been custodian of her cash. Tbe latter is supposed tg,have gone to South America or some place else with Gill, and Mrs. Cooper went to Dixmont Interest in Mr. Gill's affairs will be renewed on next Friday, whan the creditors will have a chanee to meet in Register N. W. abater's office on Diamond street, and hear the size of their dividend. It is SL100, and will be divided pro rata among the holders of $375,000 proven indebtedness. Thus, after a wait of 13 years, creditors will get between 2 and 3 mills on the dollar. The 51,100 will be divided subse quently. This case is fnrther notable as being the last remnant on Mr. Sbafer's docket When he gets through with it he will announce the com pletion of his work to Uncle Sam. The bank rapt law was passed in 1867 and repealed in 1S78, except for tbe purpose of cooking the fish then in the net A newone. and one said to be much superior to the old one, will be before Congress in a few days.and it Is badly needed.as the present condition ot affairs is making a lit tle heaven below for scoundrels. Business men all know it, and lame aB was the law of 1BS7 it was much preferable to tbe present sys tem of debt collecting, which enables rogues without any other qualification than impu dence and dishonesty to snap their fingers in tne races oi creditors. TOO MUCH CITY LIFE. A Thorny Path Struck by n Conple of Girls From the Country. Mamie Weaver and Annie Arnell figured conspicuously in tbe police court yesterday, Tbe former is from Greensbnrg, and tbe latter is from Mt Pleasant Both girls are about 17 years old. They had been arrested by Officer James McLaughlin. He claimed tbey were walking the street at 2 o'clock in the morning, and the girls were about to be sentenced to ten days apiece, when Inspector McAleese said the girls had made some damaging statements against the officer. The girls bad been attending Mt. St, Aloysius Academy at Loretta, and had rnn awav to Pittsbure. They went to the home of Mrs. Bar ber at 43 Logan street They said last nittht tbey were alone in the bouse when tbe officer came in and made ungentlemanly proposals to them, and when they complained he arrested them. Last night Miss "Weaver, of Greensbnrg, a sister of Mamie Weaver, came to Central sta tion. She said her sister was a wild girl, and offered to taae her borne. Mamie Weaver was taken to Greensbnrg. and Annie Arnell was also released. Inspector McAleese says tbe evi dence against McLaughlin is strong, and he will have to clear bis skirts at once or be dis charged. His case will be Investigated to-day. BABNTJK, BAILEY AND K3EALFY, A Trio Which Will Cnnse a Sensation Here abouts Next Week, Every little boy and every little girl in Alle gheny county, and outside of it and a great many old boys and old girls, too, are looking forward to next Monday and Tuesday, Expo sition Park, Allegheny, and the arrival of Barnum fc Bailey's "Greatest," with the novel attraction of Imre Klralfy's Dramatic Spec tacle of "Nero." and the Destruction of Rome. Everything is on a bigger scale this year than ever. There are more animals, and more peo ple: bigger tents and larger seating accommo dation, and the biccest attraction of any is, perhaps, the magnificent representation of the burning of the Eternal City. "With 1,200 people on the stage at one time, costumed in accordance with the age; $275,000 worth of cos tumes and scenery, and tbe action of the drama in strict historical keeping with the manners and customs of tbe times, tbe destruction of Rome, ending as it does in a blaze of splendor, must be well worth seeing. The street parade will have some novel fea tures which will make tbe turnout unusually attractive. "WILL COMMENCE T0-M0EE0W. Tbe Inquest In the Case of Jonnie McDon ald Continued.

A call was made at Mrs. Smith's home last night but the door hell had been disconnected and no amount of rapping would induce the in mates to show themselves. A little later Law yer Duff and another man .called, and after dil igent efforts at knocking were admitted by Mr. Smith. When they departed, after a short conference, Mrs. Smith came to the door with them. When an interview was sought she shut the door with a baug and again disappeared.

Why SteeP is Made by the Former Process and Not by the tatter. PHOSPHORIC 0UE NOT USED HEBE. Flint and Green Bottle Workers Said to Desire Amalgamation. 3TKEESP0ET STRIKERS WILL PICNIC The Manufacturers' Record, of Balti more, a journal devoted to booming the New South, in a recent article charges that the Bessemer Steel Association which owns the rights in the Thomas-Griffiths basic steel process by requiring exorbitant license tolls ot manufacturers who desire to engage in the manufacture of steel under the process, practically established a monopoly of the business to those using the Bessemer or other processes. It argues aiong tne line that because tbe basic process is extensively used on the Continent, and to a certain degree in England, where, the article claims, it is advancing in favor, that therefore it should be iu more general use in this country, and that in consequence, as it alleges, of the high tolls demanded by .the Bessemer Steel Association, American man ufacturers are debarred from availing them selves of its advantages, and that, necessa rily, the monopolistic tendency of the owners of these patent rights is causing the country a considerable loss, NOT DONE SO HERE. Whether there is any difference In the condl-. tions under which steel is manufactured here and abroad, or wbether the ores nsed in Eu rope are largely phosphoric and exactly adapted .to convertion by the basic process, whlle at any rate as far as the present steel manufacturing districts are concerned tbe ores used in steel making are of such grades as make their convertion by the open hearth or .Bessemer, or cinarea processes, more economi cal or more commercially valuable tban if the basic process was meds tbe fact is that in this district and the North generally which In cludes tbe area within which steel is manufac tured to any extent the basic process is not in vogue for two reasons, namely, on account of its expense, and because tne ores used in steel making are more economically treated by other processes. That is to say, that no ore high In phosphorns is converted into steel in this sec tion, so that tbe dephosphorizing or basic process is not required. In Germany and Eu rope generally the ore used in steel making is very high in phosphorus, and wonld, therefore, be best treated by tbe basic process. A Pittsburg steel manufacturer had this to say yesterday on the subject: "Steel making by the basic process and by which 1 mean the Thomas-Griffiths process is not in vogne in this country, because the grades of ore nsed in the manufacture do not require it. Tbe basio process is adapted to ores with a high percent age of phosphorus, and as these ores are not used by steel manufacturers, tbe need for uslnc the b isic process does not exist There Is no phosphoric ore being Imported to this district It bas been tried and found wanting in the necessary requirements. DIFFERENT IN THE SOUTH. 'The basic process might be suitably adopted in the South, where the ore is so highly phos phoric and in course of time it will probably be tried. Though in tbe matter of trials it must be remembered that both by the Penn sylvania Steel Company at Bteelton, and tbe Pottstown Iron Company, the basic process was abandoned, after a lengthy trial. One reason for the costliness of the basic furnace' is the frequent re-lining with expensive materials necessary. Regarding the Bessemer Steel Association, 1 would say that any manu facturer desirous of erecting a basic furnace would have no trouble in making terms with tbe owners of tbe patent rights." The nearest approach to the basio process in use in the district is at tbe Carnegie Home stead works. Just how the furnaces are con structed and operated is a secret but tbey are very different from what is called the "basic furnace." The process at this mill is known as the basic open-hearth. The firm is erecting IS new furnaces on this principle, in the new mill, and changing the old furnaces on the same plan. As far as could be ascertained yesterdaytbete is not a single "basic furnace" In the country. The Oliver Iron and Steel Company and tbe Spang Steel and Iron Company have, respect-J lveiy, two two-ton and two tnree-ton convert ers on tbe Clapp-Gnffiths principle. Other manufacturers use the Bessemer open-hearth, which is now unprotected by any patents. ORrTrTrT AND FLINT BOTTLE W0KKEES. An Alliance Expected lo Take Plnce Be tween Them Policy of ibe Federation. It was hinted jesterday that one of tbe mat ters touched upon by glass workers while at Baltimore was a prospective alliance between the hollow ware men. Tbe story goes that tbe prescription branch of the flints and the green bottle blowers contemplated forming an organ ization Independent of, on tbe one hand, the American Flint Glass Workers' Union, and on the other of the Knights of Labor. It is said tbat a feeling existed among both classes of bottle blowers that their interests would be best served by an orcanlzation permitting tbem to regulate their own prices, take charge of their own booses, and, in fact, legislate for themselves generally, wlthou any assistance from tbe kindred branches of the trade. The breakaway would not be as an outcome of any inharmony among the flints, lor none exists, but because such an organization, while affiliated with tbe original body, would give its members better grasp of their own line of work. Tbe amalgamation of the green bottle men with the flint men, would necessarily entail a secession of the former from the Knights of Labor. This would be a result because the new body would affiliate with tbe Federation of Labor. It Is claimed that a considerable section of the green glassmen are dissatisfied with the manaeement of tbe National Trades District and that their loyalty to the order of tbe Knights of Labor was not so strong as to resist tbe advantages claimed to be gained by joining with their brothers of tbe flint trade. While strong confirmation of the accuracy of this story was bad, in some well-informed quarters, Messrs. Smith and Dillon, of tbe American Flints, emphatically declare it is not so. Green glass blowers are only allowed to work in flint bouses on their becoming members of the latter' 8 organization. As a bodv affiliated with tbe American Federation of Labor, the attitnde toward tbe green glass men, who are Knights of Labor, is clearly defined. The flint workers are willing to take Into membership green glass blowers who want to work on flint ware, but they must come singly. Onnoac-i count will any numberof men from tbe Kniehts of Labor body be taken into the Flint Workers' Union. This negative policy toward tbe oppos ing organization will continue so long as the latter keeps its hands off trades unions. If the Knights of Labor seek to Interfere with the integrity of trades unions it is very probable that tbe Federation of Labor will declare open warfare acalnst the Knights and seek to draw within it all the labor bodies it can. The Jcannette Trial Investigation Three members of the Trades Conncil Inves tigating Committee into the Jeannette trial were on hand last evening, but beld no meet ing.

HE DOESN'T-BELIEVE THERE'S DEMO CRATIC DISAFFECTION. Nevertheless, He M,ooU for the Usual Re publican Mojorliy His Tlewa on Bill Fending In Congress What tbe minority IUrtr Succeed In Doing. Senator Quay was in the city last night on his way to Washington after spending a few days at his hone inJBeaver, where he was presumably called as an expert political doctor to prescribe in the case of the party in the Twenty-fifth Congressional 'district, 'which is at present suffering from a severe internal strife. Senator Quay was not quite as reticent as nsual, and talked rather freely on the situation in the district named and in the State in General. Regarding the trouble in the Twenty.-flfth district he said: xnere . nas neen some dissansiaciion ex pressed over the Congressional nominations, but it will doubtless soon be adjusted to tbe satisfaction of all good Republicans in the district The talk that the trouble was so seri ous as to hurt tbe State ticket is all folly. Delamater will have the usual Repnblican ma jority. I place no confidence in tbe alleged disaffection of Wallace Democrats, and that as a consequence many of them would vote for Delamater. My experience with onr Demo cratic friends is that when election day comes around thoy forget their differences and vote the ticket straight We do not base our claims lor ueiamatcrs majority upon anything so de lusive as a Democratic disaffection with their regularly nominated ticket, but upon the fact that onr candidate for Governor will grow In favor as the campaign progresses, and will receive the fnll Republican vote, which means a big majority." In regard to measures pending in Congress, the Senator said: "My correspondence with Republicans throughout this State and the North in general, is that Republicans are pretty nnanimous in favoring the passage of the Federal election bill. There is, however, strong opposition to it amone; Republicans of the South. Tbe debate on the McKinley bill may be prolonged indefinitely. If the Demo crats resort to filibustering tactics, the session maybe prolonged until October. By filibus tennc they can defer tbe adoption of the measure for a time, but cannot defeat it Sec retary Blaine's letter to Senator Frye, on the subject.of reciprocity with Spain bas caused mnch comment and will have great weight when the sugar bounty is considered." TWO UNMUZZLED DOGS. They Inflict Serlom Injuries to a Small Boy nod a Xaanc Woman John Lowrey, a small boy living on Barkham mer street Twenty-seventhiward, was painfully Injured yesterday by a dog. The boy was playing on the street when the dog attacked him. catching him by the leg, which was badly torn. The wounds were cauterized by Dr. Rabausen. James McCanley was arrested last night on a. warrant issued by Alderman Bell, charging him with keeping a ferocious dog. McCanley lives at the corner of Kirkpatrick and Reed streets.. His next door neighbors are Mrs. Elizabeth Griffiths and her grown daughter. Monday night abont 10 o'clock Miss Griffiths was at tacked by a bic black dog belonging to tbo Mc Cauleys. She beat the brute off and was going into the house when, she alleges, Mrs. McCan ley came to the door and nrged the dog to re new the attack, which be did. The brute seized the girl by the sbonlder and bit out a piece of the flesh, lacerating her terribly. Two physicians cauterized the wound immediately and it was found necessary to repeat tbe opera tion several times yesterday. The information was not entered until McCauley refused to have the dog killed. A SODTHSLDE PETJD Nearly Resnlts In n Fight Between Promi nent Twenty-Jilnth Ward Citizen. The factional fight in the Twenty-ninth ward, Southside, over tbe failure of the School Board to elect Miss Alma Scbafer to a position as teacher, bas engendered a good deal of ill feeling, and last night nearly resulted in a street fight between two prominent men of the ward. Ex-Alderman Scbafer, the father of Miss Alma, met John Bentz, one os the directors, on Twelfth street, and accused him of not voting as be bad promised. Both men became very excited, and the vocal pyrotechnics drew a largo crowd, including a policeman, who stood by, should he be needed. Mr. Bentz, who is a little man, trotted aronnd his big antagonist, and both talked fight bnt friends finally hushed tbe matter up. The fend has already resulted in several hot disputes, and more trouble is expected. MYSIEEIOUS DISAPPEARANCES. A Man and Two Boys on thp Southside Dllsslng From Their Homes. Up nntll late last night no word had been re ceived from either of the three missing persons reported to the Southside police. Albert Weber boarded at No. Z718 Carson street He bas been missing for the past week, and no cause is assigned for his protracted absence. Frank Borsel, a lad of 18 years, lived at 2002 Josephine street. Bis parents can explain his absence in no other way than that he may have left the Soutbsido with some of the fishing clnbs. He has not been in the habit of leaving home without saying something about it, and his folks are very anxious about him. The third missing lad is Theodore Miller, of No. 31 Uxor alley. It Is thought that he may have been drowned while in bathing in the river. He was 12 years old. NO NEED FOB A CHANGE. Pittsburg Catholic Churches to Retain Their Present Sule of Singing.

MEMBEEST0CALL0N CHIEF BROW To Advocate a round or Temporary Shelter for Straying Dogs. MBECILESS EIIiLING BY POLICEMEN At a meeting ot the Humane Society yes terday, the subject of indiscriminating dog killing was earnestly discussed for over two hours and as a result, a deputation of three lady members was appointed to call upon Chief Brown to-day, with a view of seeking the establishment of a pound wherein lost dogs conld be retained for n day or two to afford their owners an opportunity of claim ing them. Instances were related at the meeting ol the merciless killing of dogs, and a resolution passed condemnatory of the wholesale destruction of dogs. Chief Brown, in a letter to Secretary Davidson, declares his willingness to co operate with the society, but says there is no provision lor the maintainance of a pound. Mr. Rinehart suegested that if the city expended $25 or $30 on feeding tbe dogs for a day or two, there would be plenty of humane people who would willingly pay the bill. Prompt measures wonld stem to be necessary as there were 227 dogs killed yesterday in the First district, making a total of over 1,200 altogether. DEMAND FOB A POUND. At the meeting of the Board of Directors it was agreed that they should stand by their resolutions of a former meeting, to the effect that the slaughter of the dogs ought to be performed iu a humane manner and in a way that would allow owners a chance to save them from the fate that is being meted out to straying animals. The lady members of the board were par ticularly energetic iu their views and spoke freely of the duties of tbe society in the matter. Mrs. H. L. Mason made au address before the board and argued strongly against the, present methods of the police in dealing with dogs fonnd on the streets. Her indignation, sbe said, was aroused to a greater degree than ever by an in cident which she witnessed yesterday afternoon. Playing on the sidewalk was a little boy. scarce more than a baby, with a littie mite of a dog bitched in a diminutive cart bv traces of nrettv red harness. While tbe child and his little horse were romping togotber.a policeman came alone and killed tbe little animal, on the spot. The poor boy was aghast at the destruction of his companion and wept as though his little heart would break. At tbe conclusion of Mrs. Mason's address a resolution was offered and adopted unani mously condemning tbe indiscriminate slaugh ter, and on motion it was agreed to appoint a committee of three ladies to wait upon Chief -Brown and confer with him upon the advisa bility of establishing a temporary ponnd where valuable dogs could be kept for a day or two until reclaimed by their owners. Chief Brown, in his letter to Secretary Davidson, a few days ago, stated that there was no provision for tbe mainte nance of a ponnd, and that he had no alterna tive and was only proceeding under the pro visions of tbe law. He said that he agreed with the Humane Society as to the killing, and would be pleased to co-operate with them. A committee consisting of Mrs. H. L. Mason. Mrs. Peter Young and Miss Ella L. Paisley was therefore appointed by President Eaton to call unon tbe Chief to-day and confer wltb him concerning the establishment of a temporary pound and to suppress the indiscriminate slaughter. THAT CASE OF CRUELTY. The Swartzwelder case, wherein it is alleged tbat a policeman entered Mr. Swartzwelder's stable and poisoned a Newfoundland dog that wasseenrely chained, was laid before the board. A resolution was unanimously adonted that General Agent O'Brien be instructed to in vestigate thoroughly, and if be found tbe cir cumstances to be as represented by Mr. Swartzwelder, to enter snit against the police man. After the meeting, in an Informal talk on tbe mattor of keeping dogs in a pound, Mr.Frederick Rlnebart, treasurer of the Humane Society, said that Chief Brown had stated in his letter tbat there were no means by which tbe city could provide a dog pound and tbat now no ap propriation for tbat purpose could be obtained. Mr. Rlnebart said tbat If tbe city spent 125 or SoO on feeding a few dogs for a conple of days there would be found enough human peo ple in Pittsburg to pay tbe bill, if it conld not' be paid any otber way. The subject of baving street fountains for horses was taken up again. The directors think tbat the promises for a sufficient number of drinking places will be fulfilled, but trougbt, and embodied the idea in a resolution, that Allegheny shonld have at least 25. Tbey will endeavor to have that number erected. Mrs. John H. Shoenberger was made a life member, and Madden McVea and'MIss Ella L. Paisl&y were elected to membership In the society. Secretary Davidson reported the following contributions: William Metcalf, $25; Mrs. John H. Shoenberger, 25: Mrs. Dr. Batten. (2: Miss E. L. Paisley, il: James FonnerSlO; George Holmes, $20; J. and E. O'Connor, $20; Alderman Means, $10: S. Jarvis Adams, $5; Wilson Miller, $5; Madam McVea, $1; Dr. L H. Reed, $5; Mrs. 8. S. Carrier, Si. Captain Mercer, of tho Second Police district stated last night tbat as yet he had given his men no orders to exterminate' docs. The offi cers were too busy just at present at the Home wood races and other points, and had no time for dog extermination. The order, however, will be given just as soon as tbe races are over.

The first reports from the electric street railways were received by Superintendent Morris Mead, of the Bureau of Electricity. This is in pursuance of an order sent out last week by Chief J. O. Brown, in which he called attention to the general ordinance which gave to the Department of Public Safetv almost unlimited cowers in the regu lating of the wires, equipments and voltage ot the electric street railways. Of the four electric railway companies in In" this city two have reported. The Pleas ant Valley Company, using the Sprague system, and the Second Avenue line, using the Thomson-Houston system. They each report a maximum voltage of-500, minimum 300. average 4C0 volts. The Pleasant Valley re ports 32 cars in service and the Second Avenue 10. Both lines report machinery and wires in good condition. The Boquet street branch of the Pittsburg traction line, which uses tbe Thomson-Houston system, and tbe Knoxville and St, Clair line, which uses the Daft system, bad not reported last evening. , Superintendent Mead said last evening that the reports of the various companies would bo insisted upon, add In order to ascertain if they were correct be wonld make tests with a stand ard volt meter whenever he felt it necessary. Tests will be made from the headquarters of each company and at various points along their lines, at Irregular periods, and they will have no means of knowing when tests are to be made. Tbe instrument used in testing is the Weston direct resthlng meter, which has been standardized and made perfectly accurate and reliable. Mr. Mead said the companies have not been notified of the voltage or electrical force they will be allowed to carry, so a limit bas not been decided upon yet. He thinks 800 volts will be the limit fixed, and Chief Brown is rather of the samo opinion. Another matter Mr. Mead bas been consider ing is the wires of various kinds tbat cross above the railway trollev wires. In various parts of the city telephone, telegraph, district messenger and electric light wires hang within a foot of the trolley wires wnere they cross,and in event of tbe upper wire sagging down from any canse or becoming unfastened, so that tbe wires would come In contact, disastrous results would follow. As soon as Chief Brown gives his consent Mr. Mead will order all such com panies to elevate their wires sufficiently to pre vent any danger of accident from thi3 source. SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT. Hr. H.
