RUINED BY SICKNESS. A Well-Known Young Eailroader Dis missed From the Service. SHORTAGE IN THE RENT ACCOUNTS. He is Now Sojourning on the Lakes and is Expected to Die. WHAT HIS BE0THERS SAT OF THE CASE Charles C. Neereamer, of the engineering department of the Pennsylvania Company, has been dismissed from the service on ac count of several irregularities in the rent department, said to be due to negligence, the result of poor health, caused by over work. He is now sojourning among the Jakes, and is expected by his physicians to die within the next two months. His mother also is in very poor health, and alto gether tbe case is a very sad one. When the engineering department of the Panhandle road was located in Columbus he acted as chief clerk to M". J. Becker, chief engineer of the road, and on the de partment being moved to this city a year or so ago he was transferred in tbe same ca pacity. There was great regret at his de parture by numerous friends, and especially was this true in the Columbus Orchestra, of which he was leader. HOW THE STORY LEAKED OUT. His presence in Columbus a week or so ago, and his absence now on the lakes, ostensibly to benefit his health, led to con jectures, and finally to the report that he was no longer in the employ of the company. It was learned that Michael Mullieus, who was with the department in Columbus, bad been promoted to his position, and finally the cause of this change reached Columbus. H. W. Neereamer, brother of Chatles C. Neereamer, was seen yesterday afternoon in Columbus, and aiikcd if it was trne that his brother was short 3,000 as chief clerk for Chief Engineer Becker. He said: "My brother has been under tbe weather for some time, but could not get off on account of the larce amount of business incident to the consolidation of the roads. If there is any thing wrong, it is clearly on account of negli gence caused by ill health. He has been home about two weeks." "Had you heard ot his defalcation before!" was asked. "No," he answered, "I knew when he was taken sick be stayed there as long as possible and when be turned over the books to his suc cessor they did not quite balance, but tbe difference was less than $000. All this was satisfactorily arranged. Whatever was wrong is purely a matter of negligence, caused by poor health." Mr. Neereamer also stated that be did not know whether the position was still held by his brother or not. He also exhibited tho follow ing receipt, received by his brother. L. W. Neereamer, from the treasurer of the Pennsyl vania lines in this city, which is self-explanatory: BIS SHORTAGE MADE GOOD. Pittsburg, Pa.. September 19. "Received this day of L. W. Neereamer $250, to be applied to the payment of any deficiency over ana beyond what is left after the application of securities heretofore received from Charles C. Neereamer in acconnt between Charles C. Neereamer and the Pittsburg, Cincinnati and St. Louie Railway Company and otber affiliated companies, and balance remaining of said sum, $250. after said account of Charles C. Neereamer has been made good by the application of the security above mentioned, should be returned to L. W. Neereamer. "John e. DAvmsoif. Treasurer." When asked what the words "other securi ties" meant, Mr. Neereamer said they referred to his brother's bond, which amounted to 1,000 or less. A call was made at Mr. M. J. Becker's house on Sherman avenue, Allegheny, last evening but the gentleman is in Cincinnati. L. W. Neereamer. another brother of Charles, and confidential clerk to Mr. Becker, was seen at bis residence on Arch street, and when asked abont tho matte- said: "My brother's trouble was caused by bis health breaking down and he has been in such a condition that be could not realize tbe con struction that could be placed on bis inability to keep up bis work. There is nothing in the story that he defrauded tbe company of $3,000, as tbe amount he appeared to be short was less than foCO. The company, recocnized his con dition and refused to prosecute. ' Tbe officials (agreed to allow tbe matter to drop and nothing Should he said anout it. My Drotner nan three hemorrhages lately and his physicians say be cannot live two mouths longer. This shows his condition." Mr. Neereamer was considered a smart young railroader, and would have made his mark bad bis health lasted. Pennsylvania Company officials say his shortage was not of a criminal nature, as he had many friends that would have made good the deficiency. His mother also is very ill. and is not expected to recover. IN THE DRUG BUSINESS. The State Board of Pliarmacy Will Prose cute Dicompetent Druggists. The State Board of Pharmacy held its quar terly meeting at tbe Monougabela House yes terday. The members present were President A'.onzo Roberts, of Philadelphia: Secretary H. H. Cochran, of Lancaster; Vice President A. B. Burns, of Montrose; A J. Tafel, of Phil adelphia, and F. H. Eggers, of Allegheny. The first business considered by the board was the papers of tbe applicants for qualified assist ants and tbe applicants for registry. Another which the board will take action upon are the complaints lodged against druggists for incom petency. Tbe cases will be investigated, and, if necessary, the druggists under fire will be com pelled to stand an examination such as is re quired of tbe students, and if tbey fail In this. Secretary Cochran stated that tbe board wo Id compel these unskilled pharmacists to retire from the business. A number of unregistered drngcists are now doing business throughout the State by virtue of the right conferred on all those who were engaged in the business at tbe time or previous to the law requiring them to be registered was passed. Mr. Eggers stated that when any com plaints were made against these druggists, the above course was pursued. ELUDED THE LAWYER, How a 'Waynesbnrg Girl Gave 3fr. Downey the SUp. . .. R. F. Downey, of Waynesbnrg, is a good natured lawyer, but he was outwitted yester day, not from lack of shrewdness or on acconnt of negligence, but because of his confiding and trusting natnre. He came to Pittsburg with an aged citizen from Greene county as his attorney in search of his daughter, who had eloped with a horse jockey. In company with several policemen they located the pair at the Keystone Hotel, and soon bad tbe girl in their Eossession. She was taken to the Monongabela louse and left in one of the parlors. Mr. Downey then went out with the father to pre pare the legal papers for tbe arrest of the jockey, leaving the girl alone, but with the policemen on the watch. The maiden thereupon skipped through a side entranco, and when Mr. Downey came back she was gone. He thought it was a good joke on himselt, and he ec joyed it thoroughly. Meanwhile the jockey cau rest easy until tbe girl can be found. UNFURLED THE FLAG. The Stone Work on the Government lluild , ing Finished. As already stated In Tub Dispatch, the stone work on the Government building was completed last week. Inipector Pattison ful filled his promise and yesterday unfurled the flag.

The Committee on Public Works Docs Not Take Kindly to It A Largo Batch of Street Improvement Ordinances Affirma tively Recommended. Some months ago 'The Dispatch pub lished the fact that a number of residents in Bloomfield and vicinity were considering the advisability of having erected a bridge across Skunk Hollow, near Ben Venue station, on the Pennsylvania Railroad. It was stated at the time that if the bridge was built it would bring that part of the city into close communication with Schenlcy Park ana the Carnegie art buildings. The per sons back of tbe scheme said the bridge could be built at little expense, and wonld make an ontlet into Oakland from Bloomfield via Belle field avenue, which will run to the $75,000 en trance to the park. When the bridge is built the residents of Bloomfield can get to or from the park in 20 or 25 minutes. The scheme to build the bridge has matured, and at the meeting of the Committee on Public Works yesterday an ordinance was introduced for the construction of a bridge from Ella street. Sixteenth ward, to Ridge street. Thir teenth ward. Tbe ordinance was presented by Select Councilman Warren. Its originators re side in the Sixteenth ward, and proposed that the expense of tbe bridge should be borne by the parties benefited, under the street im provement act. They bad calculated that the structure would cost about $75,000. Tbe property benefited would be all tho prop erty fronting on streets in the Bloomfield dis trict and considerable of that in the Eleventh and Thirteenth wards, from which the $75,000 was to bo raised. Some members of tbe Public Works Committee, knowing of the ordinance, had fortified themselves by making inquiries as to tbe probable cost of such a bridge, and bad found that -a bridge of very ordinary design, to answer tbe purpose, would cost at least $160,000. When the committee met yester day this information was quietly passed around, and when tbe ordinance camenp for considera tion It was ordered returned to Councils with a negative recommendation. It will come up again, however, if it does not go through. A petition for the opening and grading of an extension to Halket street. Fonrteenth ward, was referred to a committee.

Coroner McDowell yesterday received a letter from S. H.

The party u made np of tbe Mayor, Town Council and merchants. The city wants to put in a police telegraph patrol system and will in spect tbe apparatus here. Tbe Mayor says Atlantic City is a kind of suburb or Pittsburg, and itspeople are kindly disposed toward this city. The party will be entertained by Chief Brown and Coroner McDowell, TALL TINPLATE TALK. Now Everybody Wants to Put Up Plants for the Manufacture, AHD THE LAND WILL BE FLOODED With Schemes Which May Sot Beach Maturity. M0EB ABOUT THE WINDOW GLASS TKDST After waiting for a day or iwo to see whether the tariff bill was really an accom plished act, and not liable to be replaced by a free trade measure tor a few months at least, capitalists are becoming emboldened, and from all ends of tbe country tales of tin plate plants of fabulous size about to spring np in every direction are borne in the air. From Chicago comes a story of a projected plant to cost $4,500,000 and employ 3,500 men. The Armours and Swifts and tbe Cronemeyer Manufacturing Com pany, of Pittsburg, are mentioned as being "in it." The name of the latter com pany will be a new one to local capitalists. It very probably is intended to allude to tbe project in which Chairman W. C. Cronemeyer, of tbe United States Tinned Plate and Iron Works, at Demmler, is reported as being inden tlOed witb. Mr. Cronemeyer is a firm believer in the future of tin plate as a vehicle for tbe investment of capital witb the probability of a fair return. It is understood that he has in terested John H. Rlcketson and other local capitalists in the enterprise, and that an imme diate development of the industry will ensue. It is quite certain, as already pointed ontin The Dispatch, that a largo amount of capital will be invested on tinned plate plants, both here and elsewhere, but, as also said, tbe projectors will go slow. There is a syndicate already formed, including some very well known names, for the erection of plants in several sections of tbe country, particulars of whose operations will he given in a few days. Several schemes in this connection will be matured during the visit of the visting iron men. Air. R. P. Rothwell, tho well-known mining expert, bad this to say lately about tbe Black Hills tin prospect. He had visited the Harney's Peak Tin Mining Company's property in South Dakota. There there was an expensive plant and every facility that abundant capital could provide for the development of the mines, bnt very little tin. Mr. Rothwell said that tbe comnany was getting out just about enough tin to pay operating expenses. He did not be lieve that there would be 10 tons of the metal produced all next year. In no other section of the country Is there any pretense of working the deposits of tin known to exist. TAKES HO STOCK IK IT. Mr. D. B. Oliver Does Not Believe the Standard of Steel Has Been Raised. Mr. D. B. Oliver, of Oliver Bros. & Phillips, was seen yesterday in regard to tbe report that the Government had raised the standard of steel above that actually required by law. He denied the general assertion. His firm has been furnishing a very large amount of steel for tbe Government and have been extremely fortunate for several years. We have never had cause to complain about the manner in which our goods are tested," said he. "The representatives of tbe Govern ment, while always persistently exact, have never stepped beyond tbe line of justice to my knowledge. Of course, they don't look at the material from a business standpoint, and tbey care very little, if any. whether tbe steel passes the test or not. Tbe Government has invited a conference with the Ieadingmanulacturersof steel in America. This meeting will be held in Washington on Saturday, the 18th. All of the firms that have been furnishing steel to the Government will be represented at tbe meet ing, and some measure by which manufactur ers will be relieved from such stringent re quirements will be adopted. I will not be at the meeting myself, but our firm will be repre sented. The Government will be represented by eminent experts, and the meeting will be an interesting one." THAT GLASS TBTJST Reported as Being Completed and Glass to be Advanced. A special from Findlay, O., says: "The trust of the window glass manufacturers which has just been completed and embraces every insti tution making window glass in tbe United States west of and including Pittsburg, will go into practical effect the 15th of the month. After that date It is forbidden any factory to sell glass except through a general agency that will control the market. The process af legal formation of the trust is now being gone through with, and owlne to the delay occasioned by the laws of Illinois, where tbe trust Is being incorporated, it will be some weeks before all the legal requirements are complied witb and tbe company have an actual corporate existence. -But in tbe meantime the agreement between factories will govern tbe output and the sales until the company is fully organized. Glass has been advanced In price and another ad vance will take tbe advance as a re-ult of tbe newtanfT. Tbe trust will pay the factories a stipulated price for their glass and at tbe end of the ear the profits remaining over the ex pense are to bo divided pro rata among the sev eral factories according to the output of each." Prices Reaffirmed. The wrought Iron pipe men held their month ly meeting at tho Monongabela House yester day. Secretary Murdock stated that prices were reaffirmed and a good feeling prevailed. A Jnmbo "Window Frame. A window frame to be placed in the front of the new Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic Church in the East End, has just been completed on the Southside. The frame is all of wood.

ROYAL ARCANUM DAY AT THE EXPO A BIG SUCCESS. Plans for Candidate Dclamater'g Visit To Day A Largo Affirmative Vote to Create a Law Placing Petty Cases In the Hands of Police Justices. The red ribbon and cross-encircled crown, the insignasof the Eoysl Arcannm, v:ete seen on every hand at the "Expo yesterday and last night. The order was out in full force, and the committee in charge of the register had their hands full. The visitors were from all over the county and State, and many registered from otber States. An excellent showing was made of the membership of the order. It is possible that some other secret so cieties may follow the example of the Royal Arcanum soon by holding a reunion at tbe Ex position. Candidate Delamater will visit tbe big show to-day. He will be escorted from bis hotel by President S. S. Marvin and Colonel Scboon malcer. On reaching the Expo about 8 P. M. he will be conducted to the orchestra. After a few introductory words from the President of the Exposition Society, the candidate for Gubernatorial honors will address tbe visitors. It Is likely that Delamater will avoid all allu sions to party politics. After his speech he will be shown through the Expo by Messrs. Marvin and Johnston. On Thursday will occur the visit of the European iron magnates. Tbe party, led by Sir James Kitson and Sir Lowthian Bell, will be escorted through the machinery and other exhibits by President Marvin and Manager Johnston. A very live topic in this city at the present time was voted on yesterday at The Dispatch headquarters m the Brunswick-Balke-Collen-der Company's space. The subject was: "Should the courts be relieved by a law placing p;tty cases in the bands of police justices?" Is early a column of names and votes had been regis tered before "Ho" appeared on tbe poll books, and after that the ratio of ayes was about 4, to noesl. Some of tho notings in the "remarks" column were to the point and will give some thing of an idea of how different peonle think upon tbe question. Some of the affirmative remarks were : "It wonld give them more time for more important cases;" "Less trouble for tbe Judges;" "It would add dignity to the Bench and to the exchequer of police jus tices;" "Save expense;" "It would facilitate business;" "Justices pay more attention to loc.tl matters and know the people personally whom they deal with J" "It lowers the dignity of a Court trying such cases." Some of the negative reasons were: "God forbid that any person's liberty should be left to one man's judgment;" "Justice is a strang er in police courts;" "Especially in this ace of corrupt police Jndges;" "There is no justice to be bad in the office of a police magistrate;" "Magistrates are open to bribes?' "We want no one-man power; "The most experienced men are fonnd in the court." The New System of Locks. Arthur Kirk's exhibit in Mechanical Hall, wherein is found the beautiful model of his invention, which demonstrates the new era in canal and river locks, interests the visitors greatly, but it especially com mands the attention of those whose business interests are centered in boats. In the olden days, and up to date, the loss of time in passing from one level to the other has been a matter of serious consideration, but now with this bright and practical arrangement delay is reduced to amimmnm. The larger ot the two steam rock drills for mining nas the capacity to drill from 150 to 200 feet per day. Only three men are needed to run it, and they can accomplish with this drill as much as 30 men could do in the same length ol time under the old system of hand drills. The smaller drill which is shown is destined for drilling small holes in which to place explosives for splitting large rocks. Ex perts, who have examined these labor-saving apparatus, are confident that these machines will do all that Mr. Kirk claims for them. Very properly in connection with these is made of blasting and gunpowder, that is, you labor under the delusion that you are looking at those very ticklish, uncertain substances, but these are merely fac similes of tbe cans, etc., filled with harmless sand or sawdust. The very great deference paid to these dummies by those who have not been initiated is in tensely amusing to the wiser ones. The sturdy stone crushers are genuine enough, and if looks are ivorth anything these ought to be able to accomplish wonders in their line. This is surely not one of those ex hibits that can be appreciated or compre hended in a cursory inspection, but it is one that does and should receive the closest scrutiny, and the large-minded observation of practical men who have long sought reliable ways and means of relief in just the lines that Mr. Kirk has brought right to them in this very attractive form. A Sanitary Invention That is creating great interest in the export trade is the Hartroau flexible wire mats dis played in Machinery Hall of the Exposi tion Over 25 per cent of their production ot this celebrated mat goes to foreign coun tries, where greater interest is manifested in high sanitary conditions than in the newer countries. Over 90 per cent of the wire mats in use to-day are Hartman mats. The steel picket fence manufactured by this company has also become famous, and goes to all parts of the earth, a shipment last week being made to China and another the same day to British Columbia. These two inventions are scarcely two years old, but their success is phenomenal. The handsome 40-page catalogue issued by the company will repay anyone for read ing it. " Women's Delight.

At Work Day and Bight to .Keep Up With the Great Cry for Sweets. SOME LUXURIES THAT MUST BE HAD "What would the world be without lux uries?" was asked of a well-known candy manufacturer in this city yesterday. "It would not be," was the reply. "If we cannot get luxuries in one way we will in another, and when we fail to get what we have been accustomed to we will supply the deficiency and make it up on something else. People crave something inviting, and they must get it, no matter iu what shape. "I suppose yon do not know that candy has taken the place of fruit this year, and the dealers can hardly supply the demand," continued the speaker. "You know there has been no fruit of any account this sum mer, and what has been brought to market stayed there until somebody with a pocket book longer than a piece of sticky taffy came along and bought it. Poor people and those in moderate circumstances could not afford to buy fruit, and, as a result, they bought something else. They bad been ac customed to indulge in fruit, and when they could not obtain the latter they sought to appease their appetites with candy. It made a good substitute and thousands of dollars for the manufacturers." GREAT DEMAND FOE THE BEST CANDY. A tour of the candy stores was made for the purpose of ascertaining what truth there was in this statement. George McDonald, the Sixth street manufacturer, said: "Americans want luxuries, and will obtain them, despite the elements and everything else. Tbe failure of tbe fruit crop is mainly responsible for tbe beavy demand for our goods and candy bas taken tbe place of peaches, plums, apples, etc The prices bave not ad vanced any. but the people want a better grade of candy tban they bave been consuming in tbe past. Every dealer is exerting himself getting ready for the holiday trade, and I do not see how orders will be filled with any degree of satisfaction. Tbe outlook for tbe Christmas trade exceeds anything ever known in the busi ness before, and tbe rush will be worse tban last year. Good mlxpd candies are now retail ing from 20 cents to SI and over, and many new novelties are being introduced. No. there is no demand for the cheap stuff, wbicb an ostrich cannot digest. Those painted candies are only sold by adventurers that come Into tbe city anu alter staying two or three months depart. Peonle bave learned lately that it is cheaper to buy something wholesome and wbicb can be eaten without making one sick." A BUSH FOB SEVERAL MONTHS. At Reymer'a one of tbe wholesale sellers said: "We bave been exceedingly busy since July last and tbe rush for candle will continue until after the holidays. The failure of the fruit crop has undoubtedly been tbe chief cause of the universal demand. Our business bas been exceedingly good this summer and fall, and it shows that where people.cannot sup ply a cultivated taste for luxuries witb one thing tbey will do it with another. A better class of goods will be sold this year, and the increased demand will amount to a great many tons." One of McClurg's candy sellers said: ! think one of the causes leading to the demand Is increased consumption by school children. The latter have been in tbe babit of getting a penny or two each from their parents to buy fruit, but as there was very little fruit sold in the shops, the younr folks purchased candy in stead. This looks very small, but when you consider that there are over 30.U00 scbool chil dren in this city alone, it will amount to some thimr. Then, again, as a great many men, who have been in tbe habit of taking borne baskets of fruit, did not feel like paying tbe price this year, and took home candy instead. The out look in our trade Is Dig. and there will be more good candy consumed tbis year than ever be fore." Hugus & Hacke Fall and Winter Attractions COLORED DRESS STUFFS. Novelty Plaids and Stripes.
