IMaCHLNISTS AND HOLDERS COALESCE,
Eo u To Eelp One Another Oat Where Difficulties
Occnr With Employers,
In connection with tbe recent discussion
on tbe supply of natural gas, it will be in
te resting to notice the results obtained from
tbe producers of artificial gas which are
now in operation at tbe Beavet Palls plant
of Carnegie. Fbipps & Co. Tbe producers
in use there are patented by Martin V.
Smith, the well-known metallurgical engi
neer of this city, and are generally conceded
to be adapted to rolling mill purposes.
The plant comprises eight producers, each
producer being enlarged above the grate.
"The area of the uptake at the point where
it enters the collecting main is twice as
large as it is where it leaves tbe beating
chamber. This construction admits ot a
free expansion of the gases and obviates
back pressure on the coal the latter a se
rious matter where it ensues, for there is no
use in generating gas if it cannot be taken
lrom the generators without waste.
COOLING TBE GAS.
A water jacket surrounds the downcomer
and cools the gas, which is dry and carried
to the furnaces through the mains without
the latter becoming clogged with water.
Tbe main flue from the producers is 60
inches by 54 inches inside measurements,
and decreases in size to 48 inches square be
yond the first two furnaces. Two 7 feet by
15 feet furnaces at the extreme right dis
tant 160 feet from the producers are supplied
by a straight main 42 inches by 38 inches.
Tbe producers in this mill are at the end of
theplant, but it is held that they may be
placed between the furnaces, thns decreas
ing the condensation, or back "pressure, in
long distances. The mill is now run on
wire rod and has seven heating turnaces in
all.
The consumption of coal with these pro
ducers at first was 411 pounds to the gross
ton of iron shipped. Later, improvements
were effected, and the consumption or coal
was reduced to 300 pounds per ton ol iron.
The average consumption of coal last year
was 280 pounds per ton of finished stock.
About 159,000 cubic feet of gas have been
obtained from one ton of coal, and each pro
ducer will use five tons of coal every 21
hours, thus producing 795,000 cubic feet in
the time mentioned, or 6,360,000 feet for the
entire plant in 24 hours.
COST OP THE FUEL.
On a basis of coal at $1 per ton delivered
at the mill, the cost of gas runs lrom 1 cent
per 1,000 feet for the cheapest grade to 5
cents for first-class fuel. The gas used in or
dinary iron and steel metallurgical work
costs about 1J or 2 cents per thousand feet
It is claimed that the repairs on this de
scription of plant will not exceed 5 cents per
ton of iron heat, and it is generally held to be
ootn economical ana convenient.
It is generally held that these artificial
gas-producing plants will be, in time, called
.into requisition to supplement the natural
gas supply, and that the system will be
universally adopted as against a return to
coal. It is argued that both workers and
manufacturers have become -aaedgto the
gas, and have both based their prices on its
use. Neither, it is held, would care to re
turn to coal because of tbe increased cost at
tending its use. If natural gas ever should
give out of which there does not seem to
be much probability its place will be taken
by the artificial article made by the pro
ducers. SHOWHJG TO IH SHAPE.
Operation at tbe Exponitloa Progrenslng
Bnter The Opening Will be Brilliant.
Though the action of the Building Trades
Council in withdrawing its members from
the Exposition has had a serious effect in
retarding the work of preparation, there
were indications yesterday that a brilliant
opening on Wednesday night next was not,
after all, without the bounds of probability.
Work was being pushed on all the stands,
and all of tbem are in such an advanced
state as to make it possible to finish them
within tbe five working days left at the dis
posal of exhibitors.
Among the craftsmen at work were
several union men who returned, and it
was understood that others would jump in
to-day and help at tbe final conmletion.
Several employers in different trades talced
with last night were emphatic in con
demning the action of the Council in with
drawing its men at this juncture. Without
exception, tbey are known to be friendly to
organized labor, and one. of them
demonstrated this very clearly in a recent
strike, but they were all unanimous in
declaring that such a policy would only
bring the management of the several bodies
into disrepute, and earn for them obloquy
and reproach instead of support and
sympathy.
In Manager J. H. Johnston's letter of the
26th of August, to The Dispatch, a typo-
frrapmcai error in me last sentence, made
that gentleman say, "Let the merchants of
this city, etc." It should have read, "Let
the mechanics of this city do their duty
faithfully, as we are earnestly trying to do
PAPEBHAHGER8 OEGAHTZE.
Tbey Attach Themselves aa a Tocnl Union to
the Brotherhood Painters.
An organization of the paperhangers was
effected last night at tbe hall of the Building
Trades Council, Ho. 527 Smithfield street.
The were formed into Local Union No.
186 ot tbe Brotherhood of Painters and
Decorators, with 35 members. Officers
were elected and at the next meeting repre
sentatives will be elected to the Bnilding
Trades Council. The union is affiliated
with the Federation of Labor and it is ex
pected that in a short time, all of the paper
hangers ot Pittsburc and Allegheny, num
bering over 200, will be in the organization.
A number ot the various locals of tbe two
cities were present last night and guaranteed
their support in building up the organiza
tion. The new union will meet every
Thursday night and all of the paperhang
ers are invited to join. The walking dele
gate of the painters and decorators will also
act for the paperhangers.

A MnlnnI TJnderstandlnc Arrived at Be
tween Molders and BIncuInlsts.
The General Committee of the molders'
j organizations of the district held a consulta
y tion with the Executive Board of the
f machinists on "Wednesday evening and
..entered into an agreement on certain points.
U.here are two hrms In this city which are
faaid to have taken ah unalterable stand
lagainst tne demands of organized- labor.
These are "Wharton McKnigbt, founder,
on Penn avenue, and James Beese, machine
works.
, Mr. McKmght did not accede to the
m generally granted recent demand of the
molders for higher wages, and Mr. Reese
will not allow his men to return at a 9
hours for a days labor basis. The agree
ment entered into between the machinists
and the molders is that, when the time
comes, the machinists in McKnight's will
be asked to come out in support of the
molders, and the molders in Beese's shall
turn out in sympathy with the machinists.
And thus does organized labor bring its
forces to bear.

An Ordinance to Go Before Council Pro
viding Eight Hoars' labor an the Limit
In Municipal Contract Clararmakers
Helping Blngbahnpton Strikers Qunrry
men Organize.
.Master Workman J.XvEvans of District 3,
said last night that the ordinance providing
for tbe employment of American citizens on
municipal work would be introduced before
Councils on Monday. Tbe ordinance bad
been amended since publication of its
provisions was made. A clause has been
inserted to the effect that six months after
the passage of the ordinance, a covenant
shall beintroduced into every contract for city
work constituting eight hours a day's work. A
further clanse provides that contractors
shall be fined $5 per day, to be deducted
from the amounts of their contracts, for
every person found in their employment
performing more than eight hours' labor. l
Mr. Evans was asked last'night where he
expected to find American citizens to do the
work. "Bring them from the South," he
replied. "Are not negroes American citi
zens? There are plenty of them down there,
and I would sooner see them doing tbe
work of the city than Hungarians or Ital
ians," The Master "Workman was at Blairville
Intersection yesterday initiating some 20
members into the Quarrymen's Assembly
there.
The Cigarmakers Assembly met last
night, and heard appeals for aid in support
of the striking cigarmakers of Binghamp
ton from Messrs. Perry Hyde and Daniel
Conerton of the latter place. The members
responded liberally.
It is not anticipated at Knights of Labor
headquarters that there will beany difficnlty
on tbe Citizens' Traction line. The men
have a knack of mauaging their own affairs
and very seldom put in an appearance at
headquarters. It is thought the company
will endeavor to settle the question of hours
by offering the men payment for overtime.
The men are said to favor the shorter hours
more than the larger pay. This line is tbe
only one in city organized. The men are
all -in Local Assembly 2126, Knights of
Labor.
STRIKE TALK FOE STRIKERS.
The Wesl!nchona Men Hear Particular of
Clgarmaker Tronble In Mew Tork.
The locked out machinists and employes
of the Westinghouse concerns held a meet
ing yesterday in Lafayette HalL They
were addressed by different sneakers, in
cluding Mr. Daniel Conerton, of Bing
hampton, N. T., who spoke on strikes gen
erally, and on the cigarmakers strike in
particular.
Mr. Conerton related the conditions of
affairs among the cigar makers of Bing
hampton. He said there were 2,000 of them,
men and women, on strike. They were the
employes of 16 factories, two firms having
acceded to the petition of the employes.
This was for a recurrence to tbe old price
of $4 50 per 1,000, which had been re
duced about a year and a halt ago to (3 70.
The demand was refused and the 18 lactones
turned out on strike ten weeks ago. Mr.
Perry Hyde and he were now soliciting aid
for the worker. The price paid in this
city for cigars of similar make is $6 per
1,000. The strike is indorsed by both the
Knights and the American Federation of
Labor.
AFTER SECOND-HAITI) PIPE.
fllembers of a Tiffin Gaa Company Propose to
Bntld n f?ix.-llle Line
-Charles Martin, J. WlBarrick and Thomas
J. Whaleri, of Tiffin, are stopping at the An
derson. They are interested in a natural gas
company, and desire to build aline six miles
long from gas territory into Tiffin.
For some reason they will not bny new
pipe, but have come to Pittsburg to pur
chase a lot of second-hand material from
the Philadelphia Company. .
An effort was made to see them last even
ing to find out what had been done, but
they could not be found.
STILL RESIST THE DEMAND.
The Journeymen Plasterers Will Not Grant
tbe Request of the Madera.
The plasterers' difficulty remains as it was
last week. There are still about SO men
locked out. The journeymen declare they
will not accede to the demands of the mas
ters, and decline to work lor employers not
in the association. The proportion of the
latter to tbe former is 70 to 30.
The non-association employers are re
ported as contemplating the formation of ah
organization themselves, in opposition to
tbe association. Three or four of the Iat
ter's members have withdrawn.
TEE LAUGH IS OS THEM.
The Ormsby Switchmen ent Back With n
Flea In Their Ears.
Some of the switchmen at Ormsby station,
on the P., Y. C, got it into their heads that
Yard master Baumbaugh had resigned, and
that the company intended placing a short
service man in his place. Without inquiring
into the facts they sent a communication to
the Superintendent protesting against the
appointment, and only tben learned that
there was nothing in the thing at all, as Mr.
Baumbaugh had no intention of resigning.
The other railroaders are now laughing at
the hasty Ormsbyites.

Directors' Bay at the Teachers' Insti
tute a Glittering Success.
GOOD TALK FE0H PE0FESS0RS.
Principals' Association of Allegheny County
Organized.
"OFFICEES AND COMMITTEES HAMED
Yesterday's session of the Teachers' Insti
tute has no parallel in the Institute's his
tory, not alone Allegheny county, but of the
State of Pennsylvania, according to the
opinions of those who are considered author
ity on the subject. To quote directly from
one ot the interested parties, "the
Professors all struck 12," which inter
preted means they reached the highest point
of brilliancy -and eloquence in their ad
dresses. It was directors' day and the
front seats in the hall were filled by the
largest reDresentation of directors that have
ever honored an Allegheny County Institute
with their presence. All seemed greatly
interested in the programme and took their
medicine right gracefully as several'of the
speakers dipicted to their astonished eyes
tbe perfect director in theory.
The morning session was brightened by
one of Superintendent Caughlin's character,
istic talks upon "Mistakes in Teaching," in
which he presented any amount of sensible
advice, garnished with sweetmeats of wit
and humor.
WALLER MAKES HIS DEBUT.
State Superintendent Waller then made
his debut to the Allegheny county teachers
and directors in his official capacity, and
judging from his reception and the rare ex
cellence of his thoughts and subject matter
presented his success as an educational
star' is assured. His subject was "The
Boy," a difficult one to handle, either In
the . abstract or concrete in theory or in
practice but Superintendent Waller made
a wonderfully clever address upon the
treatment and the discipline that should be
accorded his oftentimes tronblecnme nh.
ject
Dr. A. E. Winship occupied the latter
period of the morning's session in his usual
forceful, brilliant style, and instructed the
instructor what he should instruct, namely
"to think," "to read," "to talk" and "to
choose."
The afternoon session eclipsed the morn
ing session, and the educational mercury
reached a point of such great heat that hot
house Sowers bloomed in wonderful beauty
and profusion, and were presented to the
speakers who assisted said mercury in its as
cent, much to the delight of those who pre
sented and those who received. State Su
perintendent Waller was the first speaker,
and talked in a unique manner of the public
school and its mission.
DIRECTORS RESPONSIBILITY.
Dr. Winship then took the platform and
addressing himself personally to the di
rectors, who, he said, were in the relative
position of fathers to the 700 teachers, in
whom he had been and continued to be very
much interested, imnressed upon them the
responsibility of their positions.
Prof. Caughlin, in "Popular Education,"
closed the session and advocated the paying
of good salaries to good teachers and the
building and fnrnishing of comfortable
substantial scboolbouses.
During one of the recesses taken by tbe
institute a meeting of the Directors' Asso
ciation was held, and it was decided to meet
at Superintend nt Hamilton's rooms in the
Court House on the afternoon of September
10 to receive the reports of the Executive
Committee and tbe Committee on Legisla
tion, which were appointed at the meeting
of the association last year.
County Superintendent Hamilton an
nounced the following Permanent Certifi
cate committee: Prof; g. D.- Cofler of
Braddock, a B. Coofcof Chartiers borough
J. D. Anderson, Wilkinsburg, J. H. Dodds'
of McKeesport, and E. B. iMcBoberts or
Sharpsburg.
After the adjournment of the Institute,
the Principals of the countv met and
adopted a plan for a principals' association
of Allegheny county. It is to meet monthly
in the County Superintendent's room, and
its objects are to further the interests of" the
schools.
Prof. B, R. Dewar, of Millvale, was
elected President; Prof. E. W. Moore, of
Braddock, Vice President; Prof. J. A.
Keener, of Swissvale, Secretary, and Eliza
beth Newell, of Wilkinsburg, Treasurer.
Chairman Coffey appointed the following
on the Executive Committee: J. A. Keener
Swissvale; C. B. Cook, Chartiers borough
Mark Andrews, ML Oliver. The associa
tion will hold its first meeting at the Court
House on the third Saturdav in September.
