ENVOYS FROM ERIN On Arriving at rutsburg, Will be Tendered as Hearty a "Welcome as They Will fieceive AXYWHEIIE WHILE IN AMERICA. Major Gourley Considers the Advisability of Calling a Citizens' Meeting to i'xbend an 15V1TATI0X TO DEbLO.V AND O'BEIEN To Visit a City Thit Cn Urns Xuy Syaptthaen With The r Cut Mayor Gourley intends to test public sentiment with regard "to the Irish members of Parliament now in. Xew York, and the advisability of tendering them a formal in vitation to visit this c ity. The Mayor was yesterday approached by sympathizers with the Irish cause, and re quested to take steps toward sending such an invitation and organizing a committee of reception. Mr. Gourley expressed himself as deeply interested in the project, and promised to consult upon its advisability with several prominent citizens this after noon. In discussing the matter, he said last nigbi: "I am, personally, much pleased with this idea of inviting the Irish representatives to Pittsburg. I have always synj pathized with Ireland in her struggles for constitutional libertv. Messrs. Dillon, O'Brien and O'Connor are the accredited envoys of the Iri'h nation to its constant ally, the United States. On this account it behooves us to do tbem honor. But one must also remember that these gentlemen are, apart from politics, personallv distinguished and worthy of all the courtesies we can confer upon them. Two of them, at least, have made their marks in English literature; another is one 01 the greatest orators in the Parliament at "Westminster. mseuvikg A housing r.itcnr'nou. "I am sure that all races and classes would approve of giving them a rousing re ception. We entertained the Scotch-Irish, the Pan-Americans and the English Iron and Steel Institute. Mr. O'Brien and his companions arc surely as deserving of being received and entertained. I believe that President Harrison, Mr. Cleveland, Mr. Hayes and a number of the most notable men of our countrv have allowed their names to appear on the National Committee of Keception, which greeted the visitors in Kew York. Surely our prominent Pitts burgers can have no hesitation in doing likewise." In conclusion Mr. Gourley pointed out that-the.'Sreeeption of the Irish members would betoken no disrespect to the English flag, inasmuch as thce gentlemen are themselves members of Her Mjjesty's Par liament. Moreover, Mr. Gladstone, who had always been a stanch friend of Amer ica, had bade them godspeed, and declared their voyage just and worthy of success. JOKE OF TlID PAISTY IN PITTSBUKG. Mr- Charles H. Geary, of the Dublin freeman's Journal who, is one of the Dillon-O'Brien party, spent some hours in I'ittsburg yesterday. He had taken the op portunity to run down to Steubenville to visit friedns, and on the way hack stopped to see the wonders of the Gas City. Mr. Gearv is a very affable gentleman, and talked very willingly when questioned re garding the proposed invitation to the Irish mera'iers. He said: " 1 was under the impression that Pittsburg bad already invited the envojs, as all the other Eastern cities have done. However. I have been away from headquarters for soinedajs. and consequently onl know what the newspa pers tell me about the movements of mv friends. The citizens ot Boston. Baltimore. Philadel phia, Bullalo. and other big cities have held ie.Uucs and formally requested the visitors to come among them. The party i lu Philadel phia tn-dVj. and notwithstanding the election svcitement, I am sure they will get a very fine reception They will be;in to move West next week. When sir Thomas Esmonde and Mr. Arthur O'Connor were here one of the very heartiest welcomes thev got in America came from the citizens of Pittsburg. I hope history is going to repeat itself." t consequence of a report to the effect that an invitation had alread been sent to the party In the Irish residents of Pittsburg, several of these gentlemen were, last right, interviewed on ttic subject. Rev. M. il. Sheedy, one of the mou prominent. &.tid: "1 donottlnnUtliatanyregularinvitation has been sent. Tnat v ould come mure gracefully from tne citizens at large. I know, however, that the viMtors have received encouragement from Pittsburg, and that they are at preent in romranmca.ioa with several citizens. I under stood that a mretiug would probably be held to-morrow afternoon to discuss the question and the best tnans of Getting our friends from ever the Atlantic down to the Gas City. a nncTPTioN- ornx to all. "The locale of this meeting I cannot sav. It will have to be an impromptu affair, and will, of coarse, he open to all. It would be a good tiling to catch the party as it is moving west ward. Tne welcome ought to come from all creeds and parties; though, of course, it is only natural thai those of Irish birth or descent will have a warmer lcelmg lo.- the envoys from the old country thin anyone else" C G. Dixon, ice President of the Colnmbns Club said: "Major Gourley oucht to call a general meeting of citizens in Cit Hall and ascertain their Icclmgs on this question. I am sore that there would be no opposition to the project of tendering Messrs. JJillon. O'llricn, and O'Connor a frrmal mutation to Pittsburg. W i-encverad.stinguishcd American goes over to Ireland he is feted and made welcome. The splendid receptions accorded by the Irish to lion. Cenjamm Jlntterworth. Senator Jones, of Nevada, General P. A. Collins, and a host of other visiting Americans are fresh in every one's newer;. Surclj this big Union is not Sojugtobeoutdnrc in hospitality by such a ttlecouutn as Ireland." Alderman B Mrkenua was highly pleased with the reception idea. "liyall means invite them." he said. "1 hey have fought an uphill fight tcll and pluckilv. arid they deserve to be emouraged lor their pluck, if lor nothing else. 'e Americans know what freedom is too well Dot to appreciate the honest endeavors of other nati.uvs to attain it." tslienll McCannless had also something to 6av on the subject. "Do you really mean to tell me," he ejaculated, "that there is some ttmig beside elections to talk about? What a relict ! As regards the inviting of the Irish Members here. I am personally favorable to the notion Messrs. O'Brien and O'Connor have both written books, some ot wnich 1 have read u i h pleasure. If we do not greet them as politicians, we ought at least to do so because of their eminence in the literary world. NO ADYnRTIS.EMEJ.-T IN IT. Onr receptions of the Pan-American and British Iron and Steel people were not entirely disinterested. There was much of the element cf advertisement in them. This proposed recep tion of the Irish envoys, however, would be a purely disinterested atiair, as they can do our trade no appreciable rood or barm. You may count ine as at mpathizer with the reception mmu.t " Mr. C. II organ, a State Ieaaer of the Ancient Order of Hibernians, stated in an interview lai evening: The Irish societies have, so far as I know, sent no invitation to Messrs. O'Brien ard IM11"U. Tncy are waiting lor the citizens ot 1'iitsburg. the non-Irish as well as the Irish, to take action. 'I lie Kastcrn cities havelnvited the Jr'Sh members, through their mayors. Pitts burg ouslit to follow suit. The question of a reception to the envoys was, however, brought up in the A. O. H. meeting last Sunday, and warm resolutions of welcome to the ii. P.'a were passed. I understand that overtures have heenmade to the MSitore by some well-known Jnfh here, but I think that nothing formal in the way of an invitation has yet been extended. If the city will not give the envoys a rousing reception it will be the duty of the citizens of Irisn birth to step into the breach and show these distinguished patriots that courtesy is not an unlcnov.n quantity here in Pittsburg, and that Americans nave a real admiration for those who strive for constitutional liberty." A GOOD GREETING A GODSPEED. Ex-Postmaster John B. Larkin said: "We certainly ought to give the Irish M. P.'s all the encouragement In onr power. A good warm greeting here will speed them on their way across the continent. As personal friends of Mr. Gladstone and British members of Parlia ment, wc certainly owe them some considera tion. Tho ridiculous reports that their splendid rccentions in the Bast are due to a desire on the part of politicians to catch the Irish vote are just so much nonsense. The receptions are given to them because they are well worthy of them. If Jlayor Gonrley will consent to call a meeting, and thus set the hall rolliug, I have little doubt that the success ot the reception idea will be assured. I only wonder that the project was not started sooner, but I suppose that the recent exciting elections drove almost everything else out of the heads of our public men. 1 should be very sorry to think that Pittsburg was going to fail in coart esy, and allow Boston. Philadelphia and Chica go to outdo her in friendliness to these patriots, who ask nothing but our friendship for a coun try in whose endeavors for freedom we must all be interested. This welcome should not merely come from people of the Irish race. The members are already sure ot a greeting from their kin, over here; but they exuect quite as good a reception from the other races of this most composite of nations. THE MAN FOB ME PLACE. "Mayor Gourley has already proved his great powers as an organizer of just such celebrations as the one proposed. We all remember the Fourth of July celebration and what a success he made of it. I am sure he can do the same with the prooosed reception of the pilgrims from green Erin." W. J. Brennen, Esq., said: "As an Ameri can, born and bred. I can see no possible ob jection to our inviting the Irish members to Pittsburg. In point of fact, I regard it as our duty to tender them such an invitation, and give them a bigreception, in the bargain. Tho movement shnnld originate with the Mayor and the bulk of the citizens, rather than with the people of Irish descent. This should not be an exchange of civilities between people of the same race, but rather an expression of sympathy and fellowship between two distinct nations." Other notable people were interviewed on the reception project and not a single dissen tient voice was heard, while the plea was every where greeted with a chorus of commendation. BUSINESS AND PLEASURE Considered at a Meeting of the Retail Gro cersThe Collection of Bad Debts as It Is Sow Conducted Preparations for tie Big Banquet. The Betail Grocers' Association, of Pitts burg, met last night at its rooms on Smith field street.' 'The attendance was larger than usual, and the meeting was as interesting as any meeting that has been held lately. President O'Donnell not being present. Vice President Wittell called the meeting to order at 8:20 o'clock. The reports of the agents to collect bad debts were highly encouraging. The reporcs showed a total collection for the two weeks of $107 41. Mr. Pat Carroll, of Brownsville avenue, was then admitted as a member. For some time past the association has been trying to devise some means of letting grocers know when to get money that has been col lected during the week by the agents. Asa last resort, the association bad postal cards printed that will bo sent to all crocers to whom money is due, telling them to call and collect such money at the meeting of the association Thursday. November 20, at 8 o'clock. The postals will be sent out this week. To those who are not able to come to collect their money the agents will visit and pay their amount over to them. Other important business was then transacted, after which the meeting adjourned to form itself into the banquet meeting. The meeting on the banquet was called to order by Mr. Charters. The committee re ported that it had secured Turner Hall as the Elace ot holding the banquet. The music has een secured and the tickets and invitations ordered printed. Mr. Charters then suggested that - special banquet meeting he held on Wednesday evening. November 12. at 8 o'clock, in the association rooms, to take hnal action in regard to the banquet that will be held Decem ber 17. The arrangements for the banqnet are elab orate, and it will likely be one of the most suc cessful affairs ever held by the grocers. The hall will be beautifully decorated with flowers and plants. The Boyal Italians will furnish the music The grand march will take place early in the evening, when the crocers will form in line, marching 16 abreast. They will march up the center of the hall. Hon. Ii. I. Gourley will deliver the address of welcome, aud P. F. Smith, of the Pennsylvania Grocer, will re snond in behalf or the crocers.

H. Mitchell and Mr. A. C. Shell the latter the father of the lady formed an interesting trio which boarded the Eastern express last evening. And thereby hangs an elopement story. It was far away in Norwich Town, Conn., young Mitchell for ho his not yet reached a voting age wooed and won the young and beautiful daughter of Mr. Shell. He desired to make her his wife forthwith. To this little arrangement the lady was not averse. Bntthe "author of her being," as Micawber would have said, could not see it in the same light. He was importuned, and his refusal only became the stronger. But the young couple were not to be denied: they were in love; they wanted to ha onc.and when they could not get consent to their union they took it and an early train to Jersey City, where the knot was duly tied. Thence they came West on a honeymoon trip, and arriving here on Wednesday morning put up at the bouse of a relative near Snarpsburg. But alas! fur the success of the little trip and the sweet delights ot the honeymoon. They were recognized in passing through Philadel phia, and a message to the lather in Norwich quickly gave him the necessary clew to their whereabouts. He left in hot pursuit of the runaway conplr and vowiac vengeance on young Mitchell. He arrived in the city yester day. He was wroth: opened fire with all the heavy guns at an outraged narent's command, and spoke mighty words. The eloping coupli produced the marriage certificate and the guns were silenced. The enemy capitulated and the honeymoon waned simultaneously. And now the father, his flighty daughter and ncr youth ful husband are wondering why it is that thoso arc these. THEIH ANNUAL PABADE. Arrangements for the Celebration of Washington's Birthday. The general committee appointed to arrange for the annual parade by the American Me chanics, will meet to-morrow evening in the Moorhead building. As the dedication of the Washington monument in the Allegheny Park will be made a special feature of this year's demonstration, it is expected that the affair will be larger and more successful than ever. A matter that will come up early in the pro ceedings ot tho General Committee is the elec tion of chief marshal. A number of candidates are already in the field, but it is said the plum will fall to T. J. Morlcy, who was a member of Iron City Council for over 12 years, bnt who is now a member of Lcscalette Council. The en tire parade will be in Allegheny tins year. HE HELPED HIMSELF.

The police were notified, and are looking for theyonng man. Mr. Yochum knows nothing about bis son. or where he has gone. He has no friends in any of the surrounding towns, and Mr. Yochum thinks he must have gone to the extreme East or West. Running Without Orders. Coroner McDowell is investigating the case of Engineer W. H. Flick, who died from the results of a collision on the Baltimore and Ohio. Encincer Peter Toboscoe. who was on tbe other train, is also dead. Evidence was taken to show that Flick was running without orders, and the case was adjourned to net the statements of the Baltimore and Ohio officials. Headache a Beflex of Weak Eyes. Many suffer Irora headache, but few find out the cause, but every day sufler the same. That all are suffering from the same cause is impossible; that a large proportion are suffering from the defects oV refraction weak sight is demonstrated by the daily experience of the oculist, Recently a lady from Somerset county who bad had bead ache and pain in the eyes for two years, was entirely relieved by the proper correction of her focusing power. Her defect had been visular and the glasses had to be made expressly for her. Another from Greene county was wholly unable to do her share of work from tbe incessant headache, but was w holly restored by proper glasses. In the first case a week's trial without them brought ou all the old symptoms. Dr. Sadler, 804 Penn avenue, finds such cases frequent and always finds a remedy.

We expect to make arrange ments for 10 to 12 special trains, which will accommodate Irom 2,000 to 3,000 persons. Undoubtedly other organizations will make similar arrangements, and the Mohamme dan pilgrimage to Mecca will not begin to compare in numbers with the multitude of American citizens who will cross the Alle ghenies to see Pattison inaugurated. BUCKETES "WANT TO PARTICIPATE. "The Jackson Club, of Columbus. O., through its Preiident, AV. A. Taylor, has already tele graphed General Gnthrie, congratulating him on our great victory, and notifying us that they will accept an Invitation to attend the inaugu ration, and will come 300 strong. "It is my opinion that at least 100,000 strangers will be in Harrisburg on the day Governor Pat tison is inaugurated. The 33 Democratic ward clubs of Philadelphia will be there, as will the Araericus Club, the Young Men's Battalion, the Moyamensing Club, and a number of similar Philadelphia organizations. The Central Dem ocratic Club, of Syracuse, and tbe Democratio Club, of Reading, will also be there." f The enthusiastic Democrats of Pittsburg can not wait until January before they give vent to their joyf nl emotions, but will parade on Satur day night in order that those voters who do not read the newspapers may know who has been elected Governor. The Randal, Club has taken the initiative in this, and will extend invitations to all tbe other Democratic organizations and to the Indepondent Republicans to turn out with them. The Great Western Band will head tbe procession, red tire and pyrotechnics will be consumed with reckless profusion, but the hideous tin horn is barred.

Mr. Bengough said: "My appointment is chiefly due to the fraternal interest taken in me by thq members of the G. A.

Peculiar Action of the Wind Upon Two Campaign Banners. The bright weather of yesterday cheered both the victors and the vanquished, and aronnd City Hall there were speculations as to whether there was any connection between politics and the weather. One man in the City Controller's office thonght there was something in it, and gave the following Instance: "At the opening of the campaign of 1884, my cousin, who was postmaster at Belleville, and an ardc.it Cleveland man, hnng out a big ban ner. Across the street,.at tho Republican head Suarters, a Blaine flag was hung out the same ay. That night a wind storm came along and furled tbe Cleveland flag tightly around tho pole, without disturbing the Blaine banner. The flags stayed this way all through the cam paign, until election day. when a strong breeze loosened the folds of tbe Cleveland flag, con spicuously displaying its beauties, while the Blaine banner was wrapped around the flag staff as if in premonition of defeat." , - WILL HAVE PLENTY OF GAS. The Philadelphia Company Turns the Fnel Into Its New 36-Inch. Main Pittsburg and Allegheny Consumers to Have Alt They Want. The new 36-inch natural gas main of the Philadelphia Company, on Second avenue, has been completed, and the gas was turned on last night Tbe main, which has been in tbe conrse of construction for a consid erable time, taps the Bellevernon gas fields, and the officers of tbe company have always contended that when it was finished there would be no further complaint on the part of consumers of a deficient supply of gas. Tbe importance of this connection was never more fully recognized than during the recent gas famine in Pittsburg and Allegheny. People who were out of patience and who suf fered much inconvenience through the falling off or total stoppage of tho I ow were assured that they would have no cause for complaint when tbe new main was in operation. Superintendent Wilcox said last night that there would be no more drumming about shortaee of supply, or defect In pressure, as the new main woula not only furnish all tbe gas needed in Pittsburg, but there would be an abundant supply for the Allegheny Heating Company, which draws Its ghs from the pipes of the Philadelphia Company. The main from the Bellevernon field will also supply cas in sufficient quantities for the use of the rolling mills, so that the can run on full instead of half time. Connections have been made with this main at Laughlin to the Con tinental Tube Works and lhi Elba Iron and Steel Company's plant. HANGING BY A THREAD. Chancellor Milton B.

His attending physicians, Messrs.Cooper and Woodard, hope for the bust, but up to yes terday afternoon could not five much indica tion of how things were going with the Chan cellor. Wednesday night it was thought sure that death was hovering In the room. The patient is in intense agony all the time, and his suffering is terrible to witness. The first indications of anything more seri ous than the pain attending the healing of his broken leg were noticed Tuesday. He com plained of soreness about tho chest, and it was soon found that pneumonia had set in. But that was not tbe worst. It is feared that he re ceived internal injuries when he fell through tho culvert at Homestead during tbe iron and steel delegates' visit.

An Allegheny Council Committee Wants Fully Thai Amount TO MAKE GOOD STREET PAVEMENTS A Special Meeting Called to Devise Means of Raising Funds. 0EDINANCE FOR SPECIAL TAXATION "We must stop first and devise means of raising funds. Why refer ordinances for paving streets, when the treasury is empty. There is no other city in the United States that has as poor streets as Allegheny. I do not believe il advisable to discriminate in favor of Bebecca or any other street, until first some way sis found of raising fnnds. And then let a general crusade of street im provements commence, taking the worst first, and keeping at it until Allegheny has better streets throughout. "Mr. Chairman, I move that a special meeting of the Street Committee be called to devise means of raising funds. Then the Finance Committee can meet with the Street Committee and come to an understanding before the new Councils are organized. I believe we should raise a fund each year, by taxation, to improve the streets. An ordi nance to that effect shonld be passed by Councils." STARTED THE BALI, EOLLIJf Q. The above quotation is from the lips of Charles Hartman, at the Allegheny Street Committee meeting Ust night. The words are significant as tho keynote of a very im portant movement in Allegheny. Mr. Hart man but expressed the opinion of others of the committee, and set the ball rolling. As a re sult, a special meeting, as suggested, was called for November 20. The appropriation necessary to meet the de mands will not fill below $500,000, and some of the committeemen think it will take 1,000,000 to fix Allegheny's streets. The members are thoroughly enthused over the sutijecr. and say that they propoe to have Allegheny's streets in good condition just as soon as possible. Tbe improvements will be made on a systematic plan, the most important streets taken first, and as much done at a time as tbe funds will allow. : This sndden resolve to better Allegheny's streets was brought about in an nnexpected manner, bnt it was by no means spasmodic The committeemen had been reading a good deal of the poor streets. The subject has been talked over in Allegheny with great interest, for months, and though rather unexpected just now, it was not strange that tho commit teemen should fall in with the move with such ardor. CAUGHT A QUORUM AT LAST. The Street Committee held its first full meet ing for a long time last night. At a prior meeting a qnorum was not present. Allegheny politicians have been busy attending to water works and lighting, and finally tbe election, and the streets' were forgotten. As a result, when a full meeting was obtained last night, the table in front of Chairman McAfee was piled up with work. The committee waded through some of tbe minor ordinances and other business in a sort of a sleepy way, until tbe Federal street paving ordinance came up and was finally passed. Then the committeemen worked along again, until the air in tbe room seemed drowsy. C. W. Neeb called up an ordinance to pave Re becca street, from Craig street to Western ave nue. Chairman McAfee said: "Pardon me, but we have do fundi." It was at this juncture that Mr. Hartman arose and spoke as quoted. Mr. Neeb wanted to get hit ordinance throngh before the storm came, and thougb the others generally seconded Air. Hartman's remarks Jlr. Neeb kept pecking away, insisting on the ordinance, until at last it was allowed to pass. Mr. Knox wanted to tncluue all the streets. Mr. McAfee said: "I believe that we must first adopt a plan and get funds. I don't believe in discriminating between the streets when all are in such need of improvements. Rebecca street needs paving.but so does Ohio street.and so do many others. I see the papers have taken up this cry of poor streets, and I think that it is about time Allegheny awakens to the situa tion.",' DEMAND FOB BETTEE STREETS. "Yes, sir; funds are the first thing." said Mr. Hartman. "Why, I have had no less than a hundred people come to mo and say: 'Why can't e have better streets?' 'What's the U3e of ordinances without rnnds?' " Committeeman Knox and a nnmber of others joined in the advocacy of better streets and a meeting to devise means of raising funds. Tbe others did not object. Before Comnnttenian Neeb conld leave tho room he was button-holed and the matter placed before him. Mr. Neeb had got his ordinance through the committee and, having won, was not inclined to kick about plans for a general street-paving crusade. It is expected that the matter will be pretty well talked about before the special committee meeting. A plan of raising the money will by that time have been formulated, and the first installment necessary decided upon. KOT BOOM ENOUGH. Increasing Necessity of a New City Hall In Allegheny. Jlayor Wyman, of Allegheny, said yesterday that something must soon be done to relieve the crowded condition of City Hall. The depart ments have no room to work in, and there is no way in sight of increasing tbe capacity. The scheme to build an addition to the City Hall has hung fire, and many are now of the opinion that an addition is not what Is wanted. They think it nould not he advisable, but in stead the old building should bo razed and a new one erected, from tho ground up. Under the present status of affairs the authorities fear that the building scheme cannot be pnsbed be fore another year. In the meantime, it is possi ble that some of the offices may be rearranged, to use every bit of space to the best advantage. ALL FOE A JUG OF BEEB. A Colored Man Beats a White Man With a Brick. Robert Miller waa badiy beaten up by Thomas Turner, a colored man, near Second avenue and Try street, last night. Miller had been drinking with Turner and another man named Lewis. Turner was sent out for a jug of beer, and when he got back refused to return the change to Miller. They nuarreled. and Turner picked up a brick, with which he pounded Mil ler's face out of human resemblance Agent Dean beard of the affair and arrested the three men. Dr. Moyer was called and dressed Miller's wounds, which he said were not fatal. CLUBS IS NOT TRUMP, But Kleher's Pianos and Organs Are. The pianos and organs sold by H. Kleber & Bro. are too good and artistic to be oper ated by means of clubs. They are made to be played upon by the fingers and bands of ladies 'and children, and by artists. People who insist on using clubs need not apply at Kleber's for the grand pianos ol Steinway, Conover, Gabler, Opera, etc., are too far above the vulgar level of club playing. If you desire music to cheer the heart, elevate the spirit, refine the feelincs, and delight the listener, buy one of Kleber's first-class instruments and possess a joy forever. The Klebers sell, also, on time payments, $25 down and 510 a month or S- 50 a week. The old trusted house of H. Kleber & Bro., 50G Wood street, has the preference over all others, and hence sells three-fourths of all the instruments disposed of in this section of country. Y. C. C. C. BUIXETET.

SETTLED THE STRIKE. SPEEDY SOLUTION OF THE CLOTHING HOUSE TROUBLE. After Being Out of Work for Five Days the Salesmen Get Nearly All They Went After A Compromise Effected as to Christmas Eve. The Building Trades Council has been snccessfnl in bringing about a settlement of the salesmen's Btrike. Committees repre senting the council and the Salesmen's As sembly had an all-day conference with the store proprietors yesterday at the Hotel Schlosser, with tbe result that the merchants practically yielded all tbe demands put forward by the assembly in its new scale. The salesmen conceded one holiday, and fur ther agreed to work on Christmas Eve until 11 o'clock, if they were allowed to close at 7:30 o'clock instead of 8 o'clock through that week. The mam point, that ot closing tbe stores one hour earlier on Saturdays, was acceded to. It was agreed last night that the proprietors would not have so soon abandoned their posi tion if it bad not been for tbe backing given the salesmen by the Trades Council and other organizations. That the organizations at large so readily acquiesced in a movement for tbe shortening of tbe salesmen's hours is regarded as an outcome of tho geneial feeling in that re gard pervading labor bodies. A direct result from this sentiment will be a more vigorous warfare on the part of organiza tions acainst stores which do not employ nnion men and handle non-union made goods. This is a stipulation made by the store-keepers, and it is has been recognized as a fair one. So far from the storekeepers concerned in the strike being affected by their tilt with the labor bodies, they will profit oy the additional amount of trade which will bo thrown Into thetr hands through this sentiment. A united move ment against non-union employes and non union stores is we!l on foot, and the merchants and traders who are perspicacious enough to see tbe trend of events will be the earliest to profit byiu THE KNIGHTS' CONVENTION. Delegates Leaving To-Morrow for Denver for the General Assembly. Two of the Pittsburg delegates to the 1800 General Assembly of the Knights of Labor will leave for Denver to-morrow. Joseph vans will represent District 3, and George A. Kamback the green bottle blowers' assembly. Louis Arrington was originally elected as the blower.-,' delegate, but he has decided not to go, and his alternate will represent that body. Itis believed that Powderlywill be re-elected if he seeks the office. There is known to be a strong feeling against him, but the Jl aster Workman is credited with tbe power of mak ing tbe delegates turn at his will. The feeling against him is still strong, and there are those in this district who maintain thit even should be rnn again for office that tbe Knights will havo no more of him. John B. Rae, the President of the United Mine Workers, is looked upon as a man who would make a very capable leader, and he will have a strong fol lowing should he elect to run for the Master Workmanship. NEABING COMPLETION. The American Window Glass Company About Ready to Do Business. H. Sellers McKce said last night that the Eastern window glass men were forming a com pany on tbe same lines as the United Glass Company. He believed that they would be absorbed by tbe American Window Glass Com pany in time. He thinks that the final arrangements for launching the company will be perfected by the next meeting, which will be held on the 25th. Everybody recognizes it to he a good thing for the trade that this nlan was brought about. Jobbers would be benefited In getting goods under some degree of warranty, and would buy on discounts according to the ex tent of their purchases. Every manufacturer will still retain bis individuality, and obtain such prices as will follow on the quality of his output. Want an Advance. The employes otthe Carrie Furnace will ask for an advance in wages the 1st of January. It is to rnn from 10 to 40 per cent. John Negley and Andrew Love have been appointed a com mittee to represent the employes. About 300 men are employed. Working for Harmony, Representatives from 25 potteries held a short session in tho Monongabela Hotel yesterday, and adjourned till to-day. The object of tbe meeting is to form an association to bring tbe trade into greater harmony and regulate prices. Resumed, Pending Arbitration. Tbe employes of tbe Frick Coke Comnany have resumed, pending the settlement by arbi tration as to whether Verostlc was illegally dis charged. Off for New York. Delegate Beck went to New York last night to attend tho convention of the Marble Polish ers' Unions. A National Association will he formed. Crowded for Room. Mr. George A, Macbeth says he makes 5,18!, 000 chimneys per week, and can't find room to make them in. You will buy flannels where you can buy the cheapest. That's fair. We claim to have a fighting chance of being that place. We have 40c flannels at 35c; 50c flannels at 40c; $1 wool shirts at 90c; 51 50 wool shirts at Jl 25.

Penn Avenne Residents Kicking Before the Board of Viewers The Latter Ex IdblU the Cost of Paving the Thorough fare TVltb. Asphalt. The Board of Viewers met tbe citizens of Penn avenue, yesterday, those residing be tween Point Breeze and the city line, or, rather, accorded them a hearing on the sub ject of the triple alliance proposed, by which the city, tbe citizens and the Duquesne Traction are to divide tbe cost of repaying the avenue. Tbe proposition submitted was that tbe Du quesne Traction Company pave between its rails with Belgian block, the rest of the pave ment to be of asphalt, tbe cost of the latter to be equally divided between the city and the abntting property. Tbe Board of Viewers submitted the follow ing statement ol cost of tbo asphalt: Pavins 18,875 yards, at SJ 45 SM.213 75 Carbine 4S3 lineal feet, at 75c 3i2 IS Ke-settlne 10,41: feet ol curb, at Z5c 2,003 50 S'.IStOO Deduct one-half cost paid by city 30.5K to Amount to be paid by citizens i..t30,592 CO Cost per foot front 2 45 The abunttcrs were out in force. They looked over tbe plan, and, so far as could be learned in the absence of oratory, were gener ally disposed to kick like sons of freedom. They decided to fight, and hold that it is not legal that they should be made pay. After talking the matter over for a time it was decided that a meeting should be held on Monday evening at the rooms of the Linden Club. For reasons best known to themselves, the kickers who talked, objected to seeing their nimesinnnnt, but one of them said: "We had a contract with tbe city, and an agreement was arranged for the pavement. The city proposed Belgian block, but wo wanted asphalt. The city was too slow to suit ns. but we finally got a contract signed. Then tbe city made a con tract with the Duquesne Traction Company to have it pave the streets between Its track with Belgian block. We object to the arrangement generally, and do not want the street car tracks on the ground at all." WANTS TO FACE THE MUSIC. The Defaulting Grand Treasurer of the Sov ereigns Returns. J. W. Patton, who went away in June, 1889. taking with him over 81,400 which he held as Grand Treasuror ot the Sovereigns of Industry, has retnrned to his home in Lawrenceville. At the time of his disappearance be held a po sition as station agent lor the Allegheny Val ley Railroad at Twenty-ninth street, and be held several other offices of trust. It 13 alleged that he was badly in debt. The Sovereigns of Industry held a meeting a few nizhts before he went away, and voted $500 to the Johnstown Relief Commission. The check was returned marked "no funds," and it was in this way that Fatton's shortage was discovered. The Grand Council meets to-morrow evening but although Patton say he is home for tbe purpose of abiding by the consequences, it Is not likely that anything will be done. Patton has but one arm and quite a large family, and it is not thouebt any criminal action w'ill be brought against him. FOB STEALIHG A PIANO. A Braddock Man Arrested on an Informa tion Made hy His Mother. Henry Layberger, of Braddock, will have a hearing before Alderman Hartman to-morrow, for stealing a piano from his mother, Mrs. Catherine Layberger. It seems that Mrs. Layberger promised her boy a S700 piano some time ago if be would not get married until he was 24 yearn old. Henry broke bis part of the agreement by taking unto himself a wife at tbe age of 21, and it is alleged he also took the piano. Hence the salt. The defendant was placed under 1300 bail for a hearing.
