All Hope that Nothing of the Kind Will Occur, and Many BelieTe it is but a Bluff to DEFEAT THE LODGE ELECTION BILL. Local. Colored Men Eegret that the Measure Is DistinctiTtly Partisan. Relative to the proposed boycott of North ern manufacturers and merchants by the South, in case the Federal election bill is passed by votes from Northern States, a number of Pittsburg manufacturers and others who are either directly or indirectly interested in securing and maintaining trade relations with the South were interviewed by Dispatch reporters yesterday. Those who have read of tbe proposed move and carefully considered its importance were quite willing to express their views. A majority preferred not to be quoted at present. It was somewhat noticeable that some who do not deal directly with the Sonth treated the subject more airily, not to say flippantly, than those who do. A. Speer & Sons, plow manufacturers, said that more than balf their trade was with the Sonth, and that a race boycott would be a serious thing for them. They preferred to have their traveling man, Mr. "William M. Cosgrave, talk for them. Mr. Cosgrave gave two reasons why he did not think there would be a boycott "In the first place," said he, "trade between the South and North is mutually beneficial, and neither party can afford to break the relation. In the second place, I don't believe tbe force bill, as jon call it, will pass." OTHEK PASTUBES SOUGHT. As Mr. Cosgrave's views were clear enough for all purposes and he had nothing farther to say, other pastures were sought. John Scott, Jr., of John Scott. Jr., & Co., agricultural implement and seed deal ers said: "We've beard that yell before. They can't help themselves. They will buy from those that can sell them the cheapest goods. We have no trade there." A man in charge of John Henkle's seed and agricultural store said: "We have no trade with the South. I gness they want os to go down and lick them again." A member of the firm of J. W. Scott & Co., seed and agricultural implement deal ers said: "Such things are soon forgotten. A boycott would work both ways. " Scobie & Parker, seed and agricultural implement dealers, said they had no direct trade with the South, but that a boycott would hurt their business indirectly; that the South dealt largely with Western Pennsylvania and West Virginia, and the witbdrawal ol the custom wonld eventually cause loss to all classes in those sections. C. West & Co., carriaee manufacturers, said their trade was mainly with this city and surrounding conntry, and they had none with the Sonth, bnt that a boycott would hnrt them, as the South dealt largely with their patrons. a. merchant's views. George A. Kelly, the wholesale drug cist, in speaking of the possible passage of the Federal election bill, said: "I don't see tbst it would have any material effect on local trade, other tban in a general way. This talk of the South boycotting the North in the event of the bill passing is all prema ture, and it seems to me that it is impulsive on their part; but when they stop to weigh the result of such a move, I believe they will consider wise ly before taking anT decisive action. The South is not In a position to adopt such retaliatory measures, because the relations and business connections with the North are too vast to justify them to pursue this line of retaliation. It would be another matter if the South was not dependent on us lor our products. They are not in the position," continued Mr. Kelly, "to take such a stand, as it wouid react directly against them. I am not prepared to say just at present what good woulc be accomplished by the passage of the bill. The South is yet in its infancy, and the people have awakened to the fact that a future lies before them. It would not do to strain the relations between it and tbe Northern States, which it has worked so gallantly, since the war, to establish. I have not the least doubt that if a commis sion were appointed, it would give a true report of the ballots east. I think the Dem ocratic party of the Sonth does not fear any corrupt methods being resorted i to by the commission made by appointment, but what it most fears is a fair connt of the ballots. ACTING ON IMPni.SE. "The people of the South are probably acting on the spur of the moment in making these threats about boycotting us, but when they give the question a second considera tion I think they will see they cannot, with out doing more or less injury to themselves, employ this method of getting even with the North." J. J. O'Leary, of O'Leary Brothers, window glass manufacturers, talked at some length about what the election bill would do and what it would not do. He said: "This is one of the most inconsistent measures, I believe, that has ever been in troduced in Congress. It is so illogical, at such variance with the Constitution, that should it be passed it would make this country practically a monarchy. I have traveled through the South, and have talked with the negroes at several places, and I find, after talking to tbe most intelli gent, that the race invariably is satisfied with its position. The threatened boycott of the North will not amount to such a dis aster that the Northern manufacturers need feel any apprehensions. The Southern States have no other recourse than to use tbe product of the North, and they will not remain without them, like our colonial ancestors, who wore homespun clothing rather than purchase anything in England. The people of the Sonth have been successful in buildinsr up a large commeicial trade with tbe North after beini: compelled to surmount many barriers which promised to keep the country lar behind in the race for prominence. Alter overcoming innumerable stumbling blocks which tended to make the South uuprogres sive, such as the war and other events, wmch checked what seemed to be a portion ot tbe United States destined to occupy a promi nent position in the commercial and social world, it has succeeded in building up com mercial relations with the North that are of such magnitude now th it they could ill afford to murmur about boycott without im pairing these grand commercial relations. ONE "WAT OUT OF IT. "The idea of Southern merchants boycott ing the North," continued Mr. O'lieary, "seems absurd, but if snch a move were at tempted, I think the Northern manufact urers would not be slow iu locating in that portion of the United States, and there cater to the people as one of thenij suffering under a yoke of unequal strife which could not be thrown off." The universal sentiment among the glass manufacturers spoken to on the question was that the idea of tbe South attempting to shut out Northern products, was absurd, and hardly worthy consideration. - It was gen erally held the Sonth was not yet indepen dent of Northern supplies; that it was just beginning to become prosperous, but that Btiil its prosperity was too closely allied with that of the North, and too closely con nected with it by financial relations to admit of anything of the sort occurring. "It would not interfere with the glass trade at all," said Mr. Daniel Brice, of Brice Brothers, last night, when asked about the proposed boycott Mr. Brice then went on to explain that there is no glass manufactured in the South. The Northern manufacturers' could not be shut out unless their Southern patrons adoptheroic methods, and go without glass, or go to the additional expense of importing it from Europe. Ee thought that Southern merchants were like all others. They look to the dollars and cents, and will not allow their business to be interfered with when it comes to a ques tion of making money. They would more likely keep on with their trade no matter, what' the agitation results in, and would let the politicians do the boycott talking. REGAINED THEIR TRADE. Mr. Brice said that tbe glass industry would not be endangered a bit The only thing that could stop tcade in this article is war. Alter the late war the trade was all regained. Of the seven branches of tbe glass industry, not one has a home in the South. This is due to the fact that the Northern firms have become established and can supplv the whole couutrv. Mr. Harvey'Chess, of Chess, Cook & Co., did not think tbe talk of boycott amounted to much. His firm does not manufacture iron goods for tbe Southern trade particu-. larly, but he has kept track of the present agitation. He said that it looked to him like a good deal of bluster, and be did not think it would meet witn such favor in the South as predicted. AS THEY LOOK AT IT. ' VIEWS OF LOCAL COLORED MEN ON THE PROPOSED BOYCOTT. They Look Upon It a a Sort of Blnff Rev. .". HI. Cllnlori Sees One Fatal Section In the Force Bill Some Other Ideal of Race Representatives. Opinions on the Federal election bill and the proposed Southern boycott in case the bill passed, were elicited from prominent colored citizens of Pittsburg, yesterday. Their views are interesting from the fact that the bill affects the welfare of their race in the South to,a considerable extent. Tbe threat ofSouthern white men to boy cott negroes who would have anything to do with the proposed measure called out a spirited discussion, and among the leading local men who expressed an opinion was Hezekiah Anderson. He said: "It will be a long time before the Southern whites try any boycott schemes. They would break their own backs. Tbe so-called new South was really instituted by Northern push and go, and tbe people in the Southern States will go slow before they attempt to shut out products of tbe North. Southern white men are repeatedly asserting that the South is in terrible dancer ot necro rule if the Federal bill becomes a law. The fact is, the colored men will vote for whoever is most eligible to office, whether he be white or black. There is noth inc in the stones of uonsincs and insurrections. The negro is peaceable, and if he ever enjoys the full possession of his riiht to cast a free ballot, be will make a loyal citizen, trne to his conntry. He has never imbibed the doctrines of any other nation, and knows nothing bnt America. It would be to the best interests of the United States to pass the force bill." THINKS IT A BLUFF Lemuel Goocins remarked briefly: "This boycott business is a characteristic blnff of the Southern white men who want to play on the fears ot the negroes. It is absurd for them to contend against tbe moneyed men of the North, who could easily freeze them out." Said W. L Billows: "This is only a ciece of braggadocio on the part of tbe South. The condition of the negro is not affected in the least, and even if they should attempt to shot hini out of work down there, he oould go West, become acclimated to tbe country and iarm. Tbe false impression that negro rnle would ensue in the South if the election bill passes should be eradicated from tbe minds of the people. Prominent colored men of the South will tell you that they will not vote for a man because be has a black fe. but support tbe man who is most capable of filling the position, whether he is a negro or white man." Rev. G. M. Clinton, who has a wide personal knowledge of the interests of the Southern negro, commented as follows: "I have watched with interest the progress of the Federal elec tion legislation from the evening that Speaker Reed made his speech before the Americas Club. When the bill was first formulated I saw one damaging defect which I am sure will de feat it of its aim in the section for which it is mainly intended, and which will result in great barm to tbe people whose rights bavo been trampled under foot by the dominant class in the Sontb. That defect i' the one so sensibly treated by Senator Sherman, viz.: the proviso leaving optional with tbe citizens of a district or precinct to petition for the enforce; ment of the bill. This section gives a baa col oring to the whole plan, and very justly gives the booth the ground to believe it was only in tended for that section. SHOULD NOT BE LOCAL. "I believe the bill should apply to all sections alike, and be enforced, whether or not any number petition for Its enforcement. Then the Democrats and Southern people could not claim it was a partisan scheme, intended only to keep the present party in power in tbe National Legislature. The reason I think it will defeat tbe aim for which it was intended is because there will be few precincts where a sufficient number of re sponsiqle citizens can be induced to sign and forward the petition. All manner and forms of intimidation will be resorted to. as has already been hinted, to prevent colored men from sending up such a petition, and those white men who would affiliate with the Repub lican party and demand honest elections and a fair connt, would jeopardize all their local interest and social standing in the community by joining hands with them in favor of such a petition. The lives and property of all con cerned wonld be endangered. That there is need of such legislation no sane man need doubt, but it should have no uncertain sound. It ctiunld be clear and binding upon all sections alike. Tbe negroes of the South desire to vote, and on voting day they cluster around the polls, even when they have no tickets. If tbe leeislation is per fected and made binding in all sections it will do good. It will be the beginning ot a plan thai will ultimately resnlt in gaining for every voter his constitutional right to participate in all elections. A set of men will be sent to Con gress who will see that honest elections are beld for all officers, from tbe Governor down to tbe Coroner. "As to the boycott spoken ot by Governor Gordon, the Charleston merchant and other Southern men I don't cive much heed to it. FETV TO UNDERTAKE IT. "The merchants of the South could not boy. cott the North if they so desired, and I am sure there are but few who will undertake such a foolish plan. However, If they can frighten Congress to have this important piece of legis lation unpassed, they will be sure to do it. There are thousands of white men who vote the Democratic ticket in the Sonth who wonld be glad to sea this bill passed with the proviso left out. Unless the objectionable clanse spoken ot is left our, the bill bad better die justwbere it is. Anyone can see that it has a partisan coloring. The Republican party now in power can't afford to be timid about this matter. It will take nothing more nor less than a firm, bold stand to show the South and the country at large that Congress means to guarantee to all citizens their constitutional rights, whether they are white or black. Demo crats or Republicans. Let Congress nass such leeislation as it thinks will be beneficial to the citizen in the exercise of his rights, and let It apply to all sections, be binding upon all par ties, and the results will be good, whether the present party is kept In power or not." WHAT PITT3BUEQ WOULD LOSE, General Gnthrle Thinks It Wonld Take S2,000,000 a Year to Cover Ir. General P. N". Guthrie spoke last evening of bow Pittsburg would fare should tbe Federal election bill ptss. Ho said: "The manufactur ing industries of Pittsburg will lose about J2, 000,000 annually if the measure were adopted. It is so radical and out ot keeping with tbe pre vailing ideas of fairness, that I believe any person with tbe welfare of tbe United States at heart will not advocate tbe measure." Ex-Postmaster Larkin thought that "the disastrous results in store for manufacturers would not be realized so larcely as anticipated. I think that trade will experience some do pressing effect, but not to any great extent. There are some branches of trade," he contin ued, "that would not pome under tbe talked-of boycott, for which the South would have no other recourse than to come to the Pittsburg market." J. P. Fleming said: "There would be a marked decrease in the sale of Pittsburg com modules if the bill were put in force, but there Is little likelihood of it passing the Senate," UNDER GREEN TREES. Pleasant Openinrj; of the Summer Meeting at the Valley Camp. MAKY COTTAGES ALREADY FILLED. Arrangements Hade for Worship, Music and Amusements. . SUKDAI EXCURSIONS TO BE BAEEED All day long yesterday at the beautiful little station of Valley Camp, preparations were in order for the opening of the camp meeting season', which was effected last even ing with a brilliant sermon delivered by Rev. T. J, Leak, and some excellent chorus' singing under the leadership ol Bev. Charles Miller, by a number of the trained singers, of the city, among them Mrs. Leak and Mrs. Porter and Misses Smith and1 George. Trains bound for the charming spot se lected some 15 years ago by the Methodists for summer rest and worship, were filled with ladies and little ones who, during the day, took possession of the few vacant cot tages and awaited the coming of evening trains to complete the family circles. Those who were already in possession of the many tasty, cozy little cottages were busy in givine additional touches of beauty to the dainty furniture and snowy draperies in anticipation of the influx of welcome visitors that would leave the noise and bus tle of the city to be present at the opening services of the campmeeting series. A CHEERFUL GREETING). The avenue leading from the railroad sta tion to the auditorium where the services are held, like the city for whicb it is named. Pittsburg, has discarded the cloak of gloom In which it has hitherto been shrouded, and with the twinkling of many lights beams forth a greeting to tbe many who traverse tbo recently laid broad walk that leads up through the tall, wide-spreading trees, past various cottaces, where familiar faces may be seen on piazzas and in hammocks; on to the summit, wbich is crowned with the little building devoted to the craise of the Divine Creator, and, which has also taken on an added brilliancy this season with an elegant new lamp that last evening shed its rays over a congrega tion consisting not alone of prominent Methodists, bnt including many from other denominations attracted by tbe popularity of tbe camp. The sermon delivered by Rev. T. J. Leak, D.D., was a clear, concise discourse based upon the "Evidences of Gospel Truth," as furnished in verses of the epistle of St. Peter. 16 to 19, in the first chapter. His remarks in substance, were that there is a system of religion in the world, known as Christianity, its TEACHINGS ABB INFALLIBLE, but as some minds do deny and have denied Its claims it becomes us now and again to Inquire into the fonndation upon which wo build. In the text is given a three-fold evidence of the gospel, made np of eye witnesses, prophecy and the day star rising in the heart. This apostle claims for himself and others that they were eye-witnesses of various conclusive and Im portant facts relating to the birth or Christi anity. Paul declares tbey were not done in a corner. When at 30 years of age Christ ap peared at Jordan to be baptized of John, and received heavenly acknowledgment as the spirit descended in the form of a dove, it was in the presence of a multitude. He performed his miracles In public. He opened tbe eyes of the blind by the wayside, in tbe wilderness be ed the bungry thousands with a few loaves. On the public highway he stopped the funeral cortege and bade tbe widow's son arise. He was crucified in public He appeared after his death and resurrection in public. In tbe presence ot 600 brethren he took his flight to the skies. Peter bad been an eye-witness of all these things and relates the story with all tbe zest of an old warrior re viewing his warlike life. EVIDENCE THEN AND NOW. Evidence In bis time is or should be evidence now. Eighteen hundred years does not impair the testimony of an eye witness. Immediately after the fall of man God said to the serpent, "the seed of the woman shall braise thy bead," and Jesus Christ, born of a woman, was the first in all the long line of men to conquer Satan. Again. Moses said, as be was closing his earthly career, "A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you like unto me." "" Many prophets arese among tbe Hebrews, bat none filled the description nntll Jesus Christ came. Moses and Jesus Christ were both born while their nations were subject to foreign control, efforts were made by the ruling powers to destroy them botb, but tbev ii ere singularly saved. Botb were leaders of their people, the one from Egypt to Caanan, and the other from sin to righteousness. Both were mediators between tbe people and God. Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness that tbe bitten Israelites might be cured. Jesns Christ was lifted up on the cross that mankind might oe saved, xne bodies ot both after death were lost to the world. Thus they were alike and yet the one always the type, tbe ether the antitype. A PROPHETIC DBEA2I. That dream in which tbe stone was hewn by unseen hands from the mountain side was the prophecy of the Christian Church, which has rolled on for ages, accumulating power and carrying conviction and comfort Into the most distant parts of tbe earth. Another evidence of the truth of these things suggested by tbe text is tbe refer ence to the day star that was to reach man's conscience through other channels tban the eye or ear. These may be defective, but God famishes a proof of His love and saving power sent directly to the conscience of tbe man, stronger than could be given in any other way. Peter caught the rays of tbe day star and learned that Jesus was the Christ. Paul saw it and henceforth gloried In nothing save the cross of Christ, John Bunyan saw it and was lilted "to where be caught a vision of the beautiful land. It is tbe breaking of the light of the day star through tbe crust of sin formed on the heart that seals the soul a child of God. With the day star shining in the heart tbe Christian plants himself upon tbe philospophy of experi ence and declares that one thing be knows that whereas he was once blind now he can see. FOB THE CHILDREN. At 10.30 this morning Rev. C. L. Smith, pas tor of V esley Chapel, will deliver the sermon, and this evening Kev. Jobn Miller will occupy tbe pulpit. On Sunday Bishop E. G. Andrews, of New York, will address the meeting, and Presiding Elder Miles will officiate In his ca pacity over all. M ext Thursday will be children's day, one es pecially interesting always. The Valley Camp Mission Band, composed of about 40 tiny mem bers, have been making extensive preparations for tbe exercises of the day nnder tbe super vision of Mrs. M. E. Johnston, Miss Hunmngs and Miss Baldwin, tbe latter baving succeeded in drilling the little ones beautifully for .the graceful tamborine drill, wbich will be a feature, while Mrs. Johnston and Miss Hun mngs have successfully rehearsed them In "A Hasty Wish," "A Dolls' Hospital," "The Mis sionary Clock," '"The Little Workers," and various other dialogues and single recitations that, with the singing of pretty songs by tbe childish voices, will complete tbe programme. A meeting will be held next Monday evening for tbe purpose of electing officers for tbe en suing year, and discussing improvements and changes to be made in and about the grounds. NO SUNDAY EXCURSIONS. One of the proposed changes, as stated yes terday by Mr. J. H. Nobbs, an incorporator, who not only has a cottage that has been occu pied for IS summers, but also a diminutive one In which his little grandchildren make merry on rainy days, will prohibit tbe Sunday excur sionists from making Valley Camp their ob jective point Those desiring to spend Sab bath within the grounds will have to do as is done at Chautauqua, register Saturday even ing. One of the enjoyable features of tbe camn to tbo young people this year is the organiza tion of the Valley Camp Athletic Association, which will Indulge in lawn tennis, croquet and baseball. Tbo first contest in tbe tennis court will be given Saturday evening. A concert and entertainment Is in order by the club in the near future. To visitors spending tbe day in the lovely grounds ana expecting to take tbe 6:30 train for the city, a timely word as to tbe erratic movements of said train may prevent a long wait, as ignoring entirely the station or the presence of waiting passengers, it quietly and serenely steams away from a sidetrack some distance below the depot without even so much as a warning whistle or "all aboard" call. FELL OVER A ttttt. A Plumber, With His Horse nnd Wagon, Takes a Terrible Tumble. George Raebn, an Allegheny plumber, drove bis wagon too close to the side of Raymond street, and horse, wagon and driver went down the side ot Spring Hill, 25 feet below. Raehn bad three ribs broken and was otherwise in jured. Th wagon was wrecked, but the Horse escaped. NO MORE A MYSTERY. PUBLICITY OF AH ARREST MAY LET A MURDERER ESCAPE. Clever Work Dono by Inspector McAleese on tbo Cramer Crime Grnmmer En. banks Snya His Brother Fired tbe bhot HI Sweetheart Also Confesses. Inspector McAleese was a much-troubled man yesterday. It was all caused by the premature publication of the particulars in regard to Abe Spencer, the colored man who is accused of being an accessory to the murder of Ed Cramer. It will probably cause the discharge of George Cole, the offi cer who made the arrest and gave away the particulars In tbe case. Last night Inspector McAleese said he would have paid 50 out ot bis own pocket to have kept the matter quiet. He said If the story had not been published he would have had John Eubanks, the man who, he says, fired the shot, in custody before Monday. Now the ar rest cannot be made for some time, if it ever can be made at all. Tbe work accomplished by Inspector Mc Aleese on this case entitles blm to great credit. It will be remembered that neither Cramer, tbe victim of tbe snooting, nor his female com panion knew who either of bis assailants were, andatflrstthe prospects of ever finding out who committed the deed were exceedingly remote. But, on the night of the shooting, tbe Inspector happened to find a derby hat on tbe hillside near where the trouble occurred and it was the only clew to the murderers. It was a slender point upon which to work. but the Inspector fitted the bat upon each of the dozen suspects he arrested during the succeeding few days. Finally he arrested Grammar Eubanks. baving in the meantime learned that Jobn Eubanks and Abe Spencer bad been seen on tbe Twenty-eighth street hill on tbe night of tbe murder and un der circumstances that connected them closely with tbe deed. Grammer Eubanks denied that the bat was his. although It fit him, and when he saw he was likely to be inculpated he admit ted that the bat was his brother's and that be was on tbe hill that night. He was then re leased, but In the meantime, several days hav ing elapsed, Annie O'Brien, a white wom an, a friend of Abe Spencer's, was arrested. She admitted her relationship to Spencer, but showed her loyalty to her black lover by deny ing all knowledge of bis whereabouts on the night of tbe murder or afterward, even when she was threatened with a long imprisonment. She was released after a few days and watched closely, and was known to have a conference with Spencer. Then she was rearrested last Monday, and still refusing to tell what she knew, was sentenced to tho workhouse by Magistrate Gnpp, as a disorderly character. After her sentence she relented. In tbe hope of being freed, and told the Inspector, on Wednes day, that Spencer could be found at Braddock. Spencer bad assaulted a colored man several weeks ago, and a warrant had been issued for bis arrest, but not served. This was placed in tbe hands of Officer Cole, who went to Brad dock and arrested Spencer on tbe charge of as sault and battery, and be does not know yet that be Is accused of the more serious offense, although there is abundant evidence to show his guilt. The Inspector had in the meantime located John Eubanks in several places, but be bad moved out in time to escape arrest. He was In Johnstown at one time, but through the stupidity of tbe police officials there got away. On Wednesday he was located again in Alle gheny City, but got away again. Inspector Mc Aleese has offered a reward of $50 out of bis own pocket for Eubanks' arrest, but it looks now as if the reward would not be earned. THE DOG WAR OVER. A TRUCE TO THE SLAUGHTER CALLED ,BY CHIEF BROWN. He Will Co-operate with the Humane So clety In Preparing n Now Law Fifteen Hundred Does Killed lo the First Thirteen Wards. The dog war ended yesterday. This is due to public sentiment and the ladies' com mittee of the Humane Society. Yesterday morning Mrs. Lee Mason, Mrs. Peter Young and Miss Ella Paisley found Chief Brown in his office. They laid before him their views on killing dogs, and at 11 o'clock the Chief issued an order that no dogs should be killed until further notice. Chief Brown has suggested that the Humane Society prepare a new law that will make it burdensome for people to keep more than one or two dogs, and will require persons to take out a license and also pay an animal tax for owning a dog. The attorney of the Humane Society and Chief Brown will meet next Wednesday morning to draft a new act on the subject, wbich will be presented at the next session of tbe Legislature. Chief Brown said the way to have an obnox lo s law repealed was to enforce it, and he thought he had made good headway. He said he was anxious to have a more specific dog law passed. He did not believe the officers had made many errors, but that most of the cases of cruelty were caused by people who took advantage of tbe dog crusade to poison animals on their own account. Inspector McAleese said the order did not make much difference to him. "We were ordered to kill them," said he, "and we ipnt more tban L500 of them out of the way. This was only in tbe first 13 wards. Any dogs killed outside ot this district were by private parties. Tbey evidently do not know they are liable to a fine and imprisonment for poisoning ani mals." General Agent O'Brien, of the Humane So ciety, was busy yesterday preparing informa tion for the benefit of tho society's solicitors at their meeting next week with Chief Brown. Information will be collected from other cities as to tbe manner and cost ol capturing and Killing stray dogs. A RATTAN BOY-CATCHEB. Novel Device for Preventing Cable Car Fa talities, Invented by a G'nlitornlnn. Eight on the heels of the article in yester day's Dispatch in regard to the terrible dan ger lurking in tbe cable car pilots, comes the information that a California manufacturer has become interested in tbe matter and devised a novel guard to protect people from being crushed under the wheels of tbe flying trac tions. 1 was much interested in tbe Dispatch article," said Mr. Patrick F. Dundon, of San Francisco, now stopping at the Central Hotel. "I have patented a novel device to be attached to tbe front end of tho car. It is a brush con sisting of about 20 rows of rattan canes, fastened to V-shaped timbers, under the platform. There are supporting timbers in the rear of the brush. When it strikes an obstruction tbe front reeds are forced to tbe ground, and thus prevent anything getting under the wheels." Mr. Dundon proposes to bavo a test of his invention on Pittsburg cable cars, provided tbe companies are willing, and is certain some such arrangement would save many lives. His brush, or something of the kind, is to be used in San Francisco, where similar, complaints as to danger from pilots have been made. PBEPABING FOB THE EXPOSITION. Special Excnrslons nnd Railroad Rates Dlado for ibe Season. The passenger agents of tho local roads met yesterday af ternoonand agreed to make special rates to the city during the whole time the Ex position is open. In addition, specially cheap excursions will be given two days a week. Manager Johnston has returned from New York, where he visited Mr. Albert Bierstadt, who is preparing tbe plans for the art exhibit. A number of famous foreign pictures will bo shown here. The lighting of the Art Gallery is being materially improved. Mr. Johnston ex pects to have the fluest electrical exhibit ever viewed in this country, as Westinghouse and Thomson fc Houston, who are business rivals. will probably try to literally outshine each other. Two lountams are now uemg erected which will be illuminated by electricity. Glass furnaces are being built by which, the whole process of class making will be shown, and tbe general exhibitors are rapidly getting their displays into shape. Laying Additional Wires. The Postal Union Telegraph Company is lay ing six additional wires east and three west to Chicaeo. A force of 12 local electricians, un der Foreman Robert Daly, are now laying the wires each way from this center. The Deaths of a Week. Tbe mortality for the week ending July 19 is much larger tban for the corresponding time last year. Tbe rate In 1889 was 86 against 125 last week". Tbe East End had 41 deaths; South side, 37; old city, 30. A Rllrncnlons Escape. Mr. Geo. Dickson, 47 Gum st, was sitting in the hall some distance from the open door during the wind storm on tbe evening of July 2, when the door slammed, breaking the glass into thousands of pieces. He looked over his shoulder to see what had happened, when a piece hit him in the eve, cutting the ball open, letting out the iris." He consulted Dr, Sadler, 804 Penn ave.. who dressed the wound, when it healed kindly. A few days after the Doctor no ticed a thickening in the lower lid, and on Investigation found a pointed, piece of glass one-half inch long endwise in tbe socket .down under the ball and removed it. SKETCH OF A SCHOOL For the Purpose of Teaching Boys the Window Glass Trade. A FACTORY TO BE FOUNDED AT ONCE, When Competent Ilea Will ba Employed to Give Instruction. PEICK'S ME3 G1YJ3 SIX DAIS' NOTICE A school to teach American boys the dif ferent branches of window-glass making. This is the scheme which now occupies the attention of window glass manufacturers. It is the outcome of the meeting of the Na tional Window Glass Manufacturers' Asso ciation in New York on the 16th inst. The suggestion arose ont of a disenssion on what wasclaimed to be the bad conduct of the men during the last blast and the remedy for and protection against like conduct in the future. The meeting was unanimously agreed that the establishment of an indus trial school, in which boys could learn the window-glass trade, was the only remedy possible nnder the conditions on which the snpply of window factory labor was now furnished. PLENTY OF CAPITAL FOB IT. r The qnestion of locality haB not been de cided, but it has been agreed that it should be within thegas belt, and should bo a tank fac tory. One manufacturer offered to subscribe ?10,000,others from 85,000 to LOOO.and it Is stated that $50,000 could have been raised on tbe spot. A committee of three, however, was appointed to formulate the scheme, whicb, when decided upon, will have the financial support of the association. Speaking of this plan a manufacturer said yesterday: "There will be no trouble whatever In raising all tbe money needed for this pur- Eose, and I would not hesitate to say at least alf a million dollars could be raised inside of two weeks, for American manufacturers are forced to do something of this kind for self protection, as tbe amounts of spare pots, ex perienced as a result of a shortage of men, has simply been enormous during tbe past few years; so much so that ex-President Camp bell has repeatedly called attention to the bad conduct of the workmen, but without suggesting a remedy. At some of the factories the number of spare pots entailed a loss of several thousand dollars last fire, and one house let out its fires long be fore the regular time through this very cause. Manufacturers see this fully, and are deter mined to make an attempt at a radical enre of the evil. If only each manufacturer will con tribute what he lost in spare pots during the last tbree years, it will bo sufficient to build an Immense factory, hire tbe best instructors, pay them an ample salary, and in a short time, not only make such an enterprise self-sustaining, but would in a few years givo us a full supply of competent workmen." MAT BE 10CATED HEBE. It could not be ascertained yesterday who are inclnded on tbe committee of tbree intrusted with tbe execution of tbe plan, but there is a probability that they are Pittsburg men, and that, therefore, the factory will be located here. Another wlndow.glass manufacturer, refer ring to the necessity for such a school, said: ".Nine-tenths of tbe window-Mass blowers are foreigners, and disposed more to help along their own countrymen than to see a generation of American workers arise. The scarcity of blowers m tbe conntry is well known, and it is equally well understood that under the pre vailing rules of the association governing tbe blowers the snpply must be met from abroad. Tbe Window Glass Workers' Association, un der its rules, allows but one apprentice to every five men. In addition, factory managers have thrust on them men that tbey have no use for. A system of nepotism prevails among the workers, by which the manager must employ practically any person put forward by the Association. In this way, incompetent men, past their work, boys unsuitable to the trade, and the "sisters and the cousins and the aunts ' of the workers are put forward for work by their friends, instead of the hardy, well-set-up class that free competition in labor would bring forward, PLENTY OF BOYS. "There will be no trouble in getting plenty of boys of tbe rigbt class to learn tbe trade In the scbool. There are plenty ot hard-working men, with sons whom they will be glad to afford tbe opportunity of learning a trade whereat tbey can earn from $10 to 15. per day. There is no doubt that the school will be established, and that, under proper instructors, it will turn out a class of blowers who will render this conntry Independent of foreign supplies of labor, as It is not at present." The National Glass Budget of the current week will contain an article outlining the plan pretty nearly on tbe same grounds as Indicated above. BETWEEN THE EOLLEB AND B0TJGHEB A Question Arises as to tbe Wages of the Latter. The Executive Committee of the Second division of the First district of the Amalga mated Association, conferred yesterday re garding the question at issue between the roller and the toughers in Oliver's Woods' Run Mill. An adjournment was made to continue the Investigation at the mill. The roller claims that he is not bound by the clause in tbe scale covering the question of what proportion of the rollers' wages the rougbers shall receive, on the plea that bis mill is a "specialty" mill. This point the committee 111 investigate. The clanse referred to, reads: "Roughing down on bar, structural and 12 inch mills shall be paid for by tbe roller, at not less tban 30 per cent of the roller's wages," Tbe roller was paying nis men less than tnis rate. DESIRE TEE OLD PRICE RESTORED. Tho Atlantic CUT List to be Restored by tbe 10 Per Cent Redaction. Among the requests to be presented by tbo flint workers at the forthcoming conference at Cresson will be a demand for tbe restoration of the Atlantic City list to 10 per cent, the reduc tion taken of it some years ago because of tbe condition of the trade. Business is now reported brisk in the pre scription branch, and the restoration of the rice is regardedas equitable. As alreadystated i these columns, 75 new pots will go into opera tion this year, necessitating the employment of many more men. Where they will come from it is a matter flint workers cannot say. A Society of Miners. Mr. James Matthews, of W. L. Scott & Co , of Erie, is in town. He says that generally there Is a scarcity of miners in bis district, due largely.be thmLs,to the migratory habits of the class. Tbey are much given to changing their work, and frequently like a turn out West in the hope of earning more money. He thinks the ontlodk for the fall trade good. Gnvn Notice of a Strike. A large number of miners employed at the Cupola 'Coke Works of tho Fricke Company were discharged this week and the employes beld a meeting yesterday and gave six davs' notice to strike. The men were discharged be cause tbey were not loading the wagons as per contract. Amnleamatcn Scale Slencrs. TbeLoughlin and Johnston Steel Company, of Mingo Junction, O., and the Terre Haute Iron and Steel Company have signed the scale of tbe Amalgamated Association. CHIEF BROWN'S BOOK.

It is a neat book ot 434 pages, and is one of the best local reports ever issued. It gives a detailed account of all the police doings of the J ear. One of the features of the book is a treatise on the "Fast, Present and Future Sanitation of Pittsburg," by Crosby Grav, Chief Clerk of the Department of Public Safety, and for 20 years health officer of the city. Poisoned at Henilqnariers. Somebody yesterday poisoned the large New foundland dog of Captain Bell, of the Alle gheny Police Department. The dor was an affectionate, harmless brute that was much valued by Its owner. Captain Bell threatens to make it very unpleasant for the party who ad ministered tbe poison if he Is found out.

Deputy Coroner Berry and his jury waited until an hour past the time set for tho conclusion of the inquest on the death ol Miss Lizzie McDonald, the young lady alleged to have committed suicide on ac count of depression of spirits caused by tbe revelations of a fortune teller, Mrs. Smith, who lives on Carson street, Southside. As no witness put in an appearance, the investigation was adjourned until to-morrow. Mr. Berry expressed the opinion that the coroner's office had nothing specially to do with Mrs. Smith, and that it was the business of the police autboritties to look after ber cae. If tbey wished to suppress fortune-telling. He didn't seem to think tbe revelation alleged to have been made by Mrs. Smith had any rele vancy to tbe death of the unfortunate, so far as the Coroner's office was concerned. Mrs. Smith, tbe reputed prophetess, states that she does not think tberois any intention of arresting ber, and it seems that if she does possess the art of divination it does not point to ber apprehension, not In a way to give her any perturbation, at all events, as she says she bas not endeavored to hide herself, but has made frcoucnt tournevs to this side and to Al legheny, and could have been picked up at almost any time since tho trouble began, had the guardians ot the peace been disposed to take her. Mrs. Smith declines to talk about the case, but says the Coroner can find ber at anvtimo he feels like having ber arrested, and Intimates that ir she is called to testify she may have something to say that may interest other people beside herself. Whether or no there be an African in the woodpile may probably be developed to morrow. Inspector McKelvey is out of tbe city, but he is quoted as saying that Mrs. Smith would be arrested within a day or two. SXBAfTQELY CONNECTED MISHAPS. A Pair of Accidents, One the Result of Another. Yesterday afternoon a pair of accidents, one tbe direct result of the other, occurred in Allegheny, wherein one man lost bis life, an other was seriously, if not dangerously, in jured, and a vtluable team of horses was killed. Tbe Allegheny Heating Company are laying a large gas main on East Ohio street, and among .the workmen employed there were Edward Magill and Jeremiah Reardon. Magill was a teamster, and was bauling earth from the ex cavation to the dump on the river bank. About 1 o'clock Magill started with a load for the dump, and while crossing the Pittsburg and Western Railroad tracks at Herr's Island sta tion tbe day express, due in tbe city shortly after 1 o'clock, collided with the wagon. Ma gill was knocked a distance of 25 feet ana? was seriously injured about tbe head and body. One of tbe horses was killed outright and the other was Injured so badly that it bad to be shot. The wagon was a complete wreck, some pieces of it being knocked a distance ot 100 feet. At the time this accident occurred the work men on the pipe line bad a large section of pipe on a pair of skids ready to be lowered into tbe ditch, where Jeremiah Reardon was at work. When tbe men heard of the accident tbey started for the scene. They had hardly de parted when a wagon being driven by struck one of the skids and caused tbe heavy pipe to roll into tbe ditch where Reardon was at work. The pipe struck the workman with full force, crushing his skull and causing In stant death. Magill was removed to tbe Alle gheny General Hospital, and last night be was reported as resting easily. Tbe body ot Jere miah Reardon was removed to his borne, in Furnace row, Woods' Run. where an Inquest will be held to-day. Tbe deceased was 33 years old, and leaves a wife and two children. HOMELESS AND WANDERING. Tbe Strange Story Told br a Lad Picked Up On tbo Streets, Andrew Pollack, a 12-year old boy. was picked uy by tbe police last night at the market bouse. where be has been sleeping for the last three nights. He was taken to Central station, where be told a strange story He said be came from Virgin run, near Uniontown. His father was a stonemason, and built ovens at Rainey's coke works, while bis mother kept a dairy. About five months ago, he said, bis parents were poisoned by a man named Jobn Kodac, who lived in tbe same building. Kodac wanted to buy some milk from them, and when told they could not spare tny, he, out of revenge, put rough on rats in some of their buttermilk. Mr. and Mrs. Pollack drank the milk and both died. Kodac is now in lail at Uniontown. No one took any interest in the boy. He managed to pickup a living for awhile and finally drirted toward Pittsburg, arriving here three days ago. Since that he has been begging food and sleep ing in the market bouse. He was given quar ters for tbe night and some disposition will be made of him to-day. SAVORS OF AN ELOPEMENT. A Mansfield Couple Seeks Happiness at the Hands of a Bomlislde Alderman. Last evening a young couple visited Alder man Succup's office, and, after some hesitation, said tbey wanted to be married. Alderman Succupwas absent, and the couple tried to induce Alderman Sherran to perform the cere mony. The constable said it n as impossible, but volunteered to pilot them to another alder man. The groom said he was willing If it was not far, but said he had come 140 miles, and did not want to go much farther. The trio went down to Alderman Blenhaner's. where tbe ceremony was performed and a cbronio thrown in. The couple gave their names as Frank O. Lydia and Maggie M. Drake, botb of Mansfield, O. Neither would give any fur ther explanation. The alderman, wbeu asked bis fee. said S3. Tbe groom thought that a lit tle high, considering the quality of the cbromo and the time taken, and the accommodating alderman at last accepted a smaller sum. REDUCED TO thk RANKS, A Police Llentennnt Punished for Not Being Prompt to Acr. Some changes were made in the First police district last night as a resnlt of tbe assault on Mrs. Lucy Jenkins, the colored woman of Jones avenue, whose death is daily expected as the result of ber injuries. Lieutenant Teeters, of tbe Penn avenue district, was reduced to tbe ranks and Lieutenant Bob Holmes, of the Hill district, was placed in bis district. Officer Baltz was temporarily put In charge of tho place made vacant by the removal of Lieutenant Holmes.

GEEAT DEIYE TO SCHENLEI PAKE. The Flan to Hake Liberty Avenue a Mu nificent Boulevard. KUHEEOUS ADDITIONS TO THE ZOO Nearly all the City Hall officials were out at Home wood yesterday. Chief Bige low, however, was in his office, good-hn-moredly chatting about Schenley Park for he is' always in a good humor when talking of his pet scheme. After talking about the work there he suddenly exclaimed: "I have been deceived. My Westmore land county eaglets are nothing but ordi nary chicken hawks. Their legs are no thicker than pipestems, and I don't believe the birds are even a good grade of chicken hawks." The Chief finally recovered from his sor row, and began to talk about approaches to Schenley Park. "There is no good drive ont there now," he said, "and we ought to have one. There ought to be an ordinance passed prohibiting the laying of street rail ways on Center avenue. That would make a fair drive, and there is no necessity for street cars there. Liberty avenue, too, would make a good drive. I am in favor of an ordinance to compel the Transverse Line to vacate Liberty avenue. They could run on the other side of Penn avenue, just as well." PLAIT FOE A PBETTY DBIVE. "The railway lines, on Liberty avenue could be moved also, and we could pave it with aspbaltnm. Such an ordinance could be passed, with a clanse in it excluding all street car lines. It would make a great drive to Schenley Park. One could drive out to Liberty avenue, to Aiken avenue, then up to Wilkins avenue, and from there to Schenley Park by way of Shady avenue. We need such a drive, and I don't see why such an ordinance cannot be passed." The improvements in tbe park are progress ing rapidly and tbe two big steam rollers and tbree road machines are making elegant drives at a rapid rate. One of tbe latest plans pro posed for tbe Highland Park is a lake, suffi ciently large for small boats. When the Bril liant reservoir was first built a site considera bly below tho present basin was selected. Ex cavations were made and heavy masonry put in, costing many thousands of dollars before it was discovered that tbe elevation was not sof ficlet to carry water to the higher portions of the city. Then the original site and the work expenaed on It was abandoned and work was begun on the present reservoir. It is on the old reservoir site that Air. Bigclow Intends to make tbe lake, and though a handsome affair can be mai!e of it at a comparatively small cost, he does not expect to do much toward it until next season. A little while before Mr. Bigelow bad been looking for a forger. E. H. Kundy, of 125 Edwards street, had called on Cbief Bigelow to inqnire what price he was willing to pay for foxes for the Schenley Park zoological garden. The Chief Bald he wasn't buying foxes, and wonld not pay anytbing for them. "Well. then, what does this meanf asked Kundy, exhibiting a neat type-written letter, t tbe bottom of wbich was the sign-iture, "E. M. Bigelow. dictated to L. E. R." The letter consisted of a request for Mr. Kundy to notify Mr. Bigelow at once of the number of foxes he bad for sale, tbeir size, species and value, and asked how soon he could deliver a limited number to the Zoo in Schenley Park. As Mr. Kundy happened to have in bis possession a pair of red foxes which be had no special uso for, be answered the let ter In person and exhibited the letter. A BABEFACED FOKGEEY. Mr. Bigelow at once pronounced the letter a forgery, tbe signature being entirely unlike his. He Was thinking of taking tbe foxes, but Controller Morrow laughingly told him be did not have authority to buy foxes. Mr. Kundy settled the matter by presenting the animals to the Zoo. " President Ford, of Select Council, made a further addition to the menagerie by offering a balf dozen chameleons. A neat exhibition case will be made for them. A covey of prairie Chickens will be the next addition to tbe list, notice of tbeir being presented by a gentleman of this city being sent to Mr. Bigelow yester day. It was rumored yesterday thatBarnum had offered to present an elephant for the park, but Mr. Bigelow bad not heard of it, and said be thongbt the talk was meant for an adver tisement. Ho expects, however, to have an elephant from some source before long. When Forepaugb was here be offered to sell the largest elephant in'his collection to the city for $1,000. A gentleman who is interested In the matter has signified his willingness to buy one for the park, bathe will not pay nearly so much as 3.000. If one can be purchased for about 1,200, be may buv it. Tbe Southdown sheep recently purchased by Mr. Bigelow have not yet been delivered here, but are expected next week. SPECIAL. Via Allegheny Valley R.
