Eury JIan Given a Full Opportunity to t'xpress Ills Preference With out lntei fereiice. AS END TO THE WORE OP HEELEKSj. Scscrif-Jm tl thj YTy a Which ths AastruAS Sjlteia ti Weill At the coming session of the Legislature the subject of ballot reform is likel" to take definite hl)pe. Both political parties advo cate it, and the people Beeui inclined to give llie Australian system or something like it a fair tr.al. As the ballot law which went into effect in ImuEti.i al last Tuesday's election is pio liounced a how ling success by all except rtufiers and repeaters, a description ol tlie wanner o." conducting an election under it is of Sntere't. Tlie general arrangement to prevent interference it se follows: $ : . '-B" ;r. i !w i 1 &W' : ei-t.ujti board. .. It. Jj. CootJs- niierc ballots are niarfccd. '. OiaUertgc cinfiow. I. T)air. K. IX Oiute through naicli the voter mnst cater. 1 RaHing separating the Election Uoard I mm tae voters. W. W. 1 mdows. betaiis or a hi; modus opkkaxoi. TiiecLute is a itsagcav with a railing of roujer virc, on cither idr, extending .() eet from li.e challenge window. The place occupied bv tne election board is separated from the reniainde- of the room by railing, and this railing includes the "challenge" window. The tiooths in which ballots are marked are three in number, and ate made with or without doors, all that is necessary being that th? voter shall mark his ballot while screened iiom observation. The law requires the sides and back of each booth to ; be made solid, without cracks or knot-holes. The dimensions arc probably not verv mitenal, but the Indiana ilection-lav architects suggest dimensions 3 feet wide, 4 'eet ueep ami 8 feet high. The melt or counter is placed across the bactc ol me booth, 3 teet nign, anil i 1 foot to IS inches wide. Toe booilis may be m a row or separated. Thev must be so placed that all the members of the Election Uoard can see whether more than one voter enters. The nlrances of the bo"ths must bo placed toward thp Election Uoard. 2so luruiture further than tins is required, save that occu pied at present by Election Boards. When a otcr approaches the polls he must pass through the chute to the challenge window. If he escape unscathed, he is then prepared to take tiic next decree. Wheu admitted to the election room he announces his name to the poll clerks, and receives from them copies of the State and local bal lots and a stamp, and they are required to give the voter anv information he may need r.s to the manner of voting. The voter must not hold any conversation with anyone iu the election room nut the members of the election board. lie must go alone into one of the booths that is unoccupied. It he take his beverage s'ra.ght he marks with the ptamp the qu-re in front of the name ot the part- with v.inch he votes. If he wish to vote a railed ticket, he marks the square which is printed in front ot carh name, with liis stamp. He may also mark the title of either ticket, and the names of those persons on the other t ckets for whom he desires to Tote, but the method is not regarded as safe, as the names spcc.r-Uy marked are liable to he overlooked m counting. "When tLc ballot arc maikcd, and before leaving the bouth, the voter must iold each eeparaiely, o that the initials of the poll clerks on the back wi'l show and none ot the names on the ballots can be 'eeu. He then colics out of the boiib ana ictiirns the stamp to the ;.:1 clerk, .md tlie folded bal lots to tiie inspector, iie must not ofler the Jnspe.'tor any ballots bet tae ones he re ceaved frou tlie j.ol! clcrka. It is impos sible for a lau-itl ballot to be r.ulsiae tbe icctiou room during the ciect.cn, and any person having in i.is paseFcou wuat pur ports to her. ballot, u Hither he attempt to rote or not, is subject o imprisonment in the jwaitentiarv and dissrauchisement for ten years. i.'s vctcr declares that he cannot read SaglisS .or s bind, or otherwise physically tumble to stamp his batlott. the poll clerks will stamp them lor him. A I.ilsc acclara tloa ie pun.habl by fine and disfranchise ment. He must no show his ballots to any person, nor attempt to see the ballot ot any othr voter. lie inu't vote the ballots he rcccivis from the poll clerk and cannot Jeave the room before voting. He must not mutilate, tear, dclace, or in anv wav mark 2us ballots, and if he accidentally does so he matt report it at or.ce to the poll clerks, who , -wii! give him a new ballot, Severe penal , ties are prov ded for doing, or temptm to do, any of these acts prohibited. As there is uo vest-pocket vote possible, ike voter gels a red-tinted ballot, or rather ketoi ba!!ot, Ironi the poll clerks; if he be voting a Slate ticket it is a sheet containing the names of all crndidates voted for bv the vfaoic State, Prcudtntal (lectors, State offi cers, etc., -vith a small squire in front of fsch asms, as La. ore stated. The local ticket is printed on white paper, and con tains the jami-s of all candidates votel for in acv.'utv. On tne back the initials of iie poll cierk6 arc written on tne lower left hand corner Tee voter indicates his preference on any question oi conuitational amendments or other special matter, by statu piug in Iront of ths words -yes-' or "no." A voter is not allowed to occupy more than five minutes' time. When the count is com pleted, all ne uuvoted ballots must be Lurnea, except those marked, mutilated or otherwise defective. Tuere arL qu.te a nuinVer of other pro visions for in-nagcnient, such as will be i..tg?estcd to any one familiar with election duties. In case of death, removal or resignation ot any candidate before the election and after the ballots are printed, the Chairman of the Central County Committee of anv of the leading polit.cal'pariies of the State is empowered to nominate another in his place, and to furnish pasters or stickers to the election boards of the various precincts. 2'asters are not used for any other purpose. The power of cnmiiiation is given for use in tn cmergercy, but it la expected that a rhairmau will follow party usjge by calling r. special conmiatmir convention, it there be sufficient time after the vacancy occurs. In addition to the printed designations of tickets the illiterate are furnished in In diana with symbolic devices sufficient to prevent a dishonest poll clerk from "putting it on their eye" by the symbolic device of each organization over the head of his ticket. The Itepublican ticket is headed by a picture of a log cabin with a single win dow and door in front and smoke curling out of the chimney. Over the Democratic ticket is a picture of the "Her ald of Dawn," so dear to every Democratic heart, with head and tail erect, immense spurs, and shown in the attitude of crowing. Over the Prohibition ticket is the representation of a cannon, with smoke emitted at muzzle aud touch-hole. The only fault found with the arrange ment, so far. is that in very populous voting districts three booths ars not enough, and in most phiccs but three were provided at the late election. This objection is easily ob viated. A EELIC OF YE OLDEN TIME Kecelved ly IT. J. Heinz Trom the Tamlly Ilouicsti-ud in lt-aiaria. H. J. Heinz has received Ironi Bavaria a very curious and massive stone seat, or pew, the arms of which are quaintly taived and bear the date "1599." Mr. Heinz and his son Clarence, when traveling in Europe lately, slept in an upper room of the ancient Heinz homestead, a house still occupied by members of the tatnily. A fine photograph of this ancient mansion shows a substantial, roomy stone structure, with a high, peaked gable. On the right a wide arched gateway leads into a courtvard, and through that into a vineyard. Over the doorway of the court is the date "1599." Kalihtadt, the location of the family homestead, is an old town near the Ithiae, iu the Rhenish Palatinate, some 25 miles from Worms, the famous city to which Luther was summoned by the enraged Ecclesiastics. Close by is Durkiielm, a town of 0.000 inhabitants, noted lor its vine yards and for its "Grape Cure," which, at tracts many visitors. The heavy old stone seat, having done duty for nearly 300 years at ICahlstadr, has been placed outside the side entrance to Mr. Heinz's residence in about the same position it occupied in its German home. It weighs 1,300 pounds. As a very cunousand ancient pitceoffurniture.it will no doubt be re garded with great interest. W0SSE THAK THE C01IP1AINT Was the Itemcdy Applied to a. Second Ward 3Ialt-sc Cat. Mrs. X. H. Morgan, of Xo. 1S3 Second avenue, has a Maltese cat which is a great favorite in the family, aud one of the senti ent ornaments of the Second Avenue Paik on nice days. Ilut Tommy didn't exercise prudence, and in his saunterings fell among plebeian lelines, and soon his glossy coat was infested with tleas. This could not be toleiated, and Mrs. Morgan was told to iBUngc Tommy's fur with kerosene, or lamp oil. She did so, and the result is fraught with grief to a large circle ot Tommy's ad mirers. He is probably the sorest cat in tlie Second ward, or in any other ward in the city. His cuticle is so greatly abbre viated that he cannot stretch himself, and had Job been so sore, he would not have scraped himself with a potsherd. The cat is evidently conscious that he has the sympathy of ins bi-pedal friends, but that doesn't prevent him from caterwauling with desperate energy whenever he thinks any of them show a disposition to caress him. Though the fleas are gone, Mrs. Mor gan is not inclined to indorse the remedy, aud certainly Tommy isn't. AS AK EDUCATOE. Owners or tlie Gettysburg Cyclorama Think it a Great .Scheme. The owners of the Cyclorama Battle of Gettysburg have hit upon a novel plan of disposing of their elephant. They propose that the schools of the two cities take the picture and use it for the general education of the bchools in history. Piof. Morrow was seen by one of the officers of the com pany yesterday and he rather liked the schpme. This was talked of by the Board of Edu cation in other cities, but the cost was so great that it would be impossible to put out the money. Such a picture would cost $70, 000 to paint, but this one can be had at a great sacrifice. The date of the sale of the picture has been changed on account of the date set being Thanksgiving. It will probably be sold on Wednesday, Decembers. HE1D FOB MAKSIAUGHTEE. A Baltimore and Ohio Freight Conducto r Held Jtcsponsiblo for an Accident. The inquest on the body of Engineer W. H. Flick, who was killed in a collision on the Baltniore and Ohio, was concluded yes terday. The jury found that the collision resulted trom gross negligence on tbe part of the deceased and his conductor, Patrick Carr, and censured tiie telegraph operators for allowing either engineer or conductor to sign running orders for both. Coroner McDowell held Carr for man slaughter, and tne case wiil be turned over to the District Attorney of Washington county, where the accident occurred, to take action. Turchasing a 1'iano.

The Duquesno Mill Hay Pass Into the Hands of the Carnegie?, OWING TO THE KEEN COMPETITION. Blacksmiths Meet for the Purpose of forming a Union. TELEGRAPHERS TO E0LD A MEETING It was believed in iron trade circles, yes terday, that the publication in the Iron Age regarding the sale of the Allegheny Bes semer Steel Company's plant, was a little ahead of time, but that while the sale may not have actually been effected, that nego tiations to that end are on foot. In connection with the assumed extension of the Carnegie interests, which reduces their competitors on this side of the Alle ghenies to the Cambria Iron and Steel Com pany, at Johnstown, and the Illinois Steel Company, at Chicago, the extensive prepa rations of the Pennsylvania Steel Company, for the erection of a rail plant at Sparrow Point, Md., are noteworthy. The plans for this mill are now be ing drawn by Mr. Henry Aiken, the mechanical engineer of the Lewis Block. These have progressed so far as to show that the rail plant at Sparrow Point will bo of such extent as to leave tbe Edgar Thomson and Chicago mills very much behind; as much in point of economy iu working as in the rapidity with which the rails will be tnrned out. Both the Chicago and Duquesne mills are recognized as having an ad.-antage over the Edgar Thomson mill in point of more mod ern machinery; but the whole three will have a severe competitor in the Pennsyl vania Steel Company when once it gets into active operation. Such, at least, would ap pear from the character of the plant about to be put down at Snarrow Point and thefa vor.able position of the works for reaching the Southern markets, where the hulk of the rails are now finding their way. A TIME EEDUCTI0H Of One Ilour and a Half Wanted by the Drug Clerks. The length of time for a day's work is now engrossing the attention of the drug clerks of the two cities, and a meeting will be held at the College of Pharmacy to effect an organization and to ask for reduced time. Thcv will demand that they only work from 7 A. u. to 10 P. si., whereas they now work from G:30 a. ai. to 11 p. ar. Tne clerks claim that they have the ad vantage of others, because it would be iiu- possiolc to import drug clerks on account of the registration law, aud there are none here oat ot employment.

THE PTTTSBTJKQ- DISPATCH, . THE CHARGES FILED AGAINST FIRE CHIEF RC)3ErtT JONES, OF ALLEGHENY. The Affidavit in the Ilaiids of the Mayor Who lias Decided Upon His Action The Chief Awaits the Investigation. Sworn charges have been filed with Mayor Wyman, of Allegheny, against Chief Jones, of the File Department, by William H.Winn, who alleges that the chief held back a part of bis salary when he held the position of superintendent of the patrol system. Following is the full text of the affidavit: Bcforo me, James G. Wyman. Mayor in and for the city of Allegheny, personally camo William II. Winn, who upon oath duly admin istered, complains of tho tonduct of an officer of said cits-, Robert Jones, .jngmecr of tho lire department, and that he issuitty of a violation of his duty and trust reposi'd in him by reason of his office. Affiant says that the said Robert Jones caused to be drawn a warrant for $200 In favor ot your affiant, William H. Winn, for services rendered as superintendent of the pattol system, and the said Jones vouched for the correctness and truth of the same to the Controller of said city as having been per formed by yoarafuantandt'iat the said amount, to wit:S2uO. was due your iiffiant, upon which Toucner oi sam Jones a warrant was issueu, payable t i affiant. lhat the said Jones, after the warrant had been procured, took the same, and in company with affiant, went to tho bank, to-wit: Tha German National Bank, whore the warrant was pavabie. and had affiant nresent the sauio for piyincnt, andbeloroleavinf the bank, took the t;00 from your affiant and p it it in bis pocket. That on their way baek h s handed nmant the sum of C0, savins to affiant, ".Now you keep quiet and don't talk to anv one, and next time 1 will give i cm 525 a month," when in trnth and in fact the Controller had dlrawn the warrant upon the vouch t of said Jones for the services ot affiant as superintendent of the patrol system, and the said Jcnes had no legal right to any of the mono, and has refused ana still docs ref uso to return to your alhant the SHO illegally and wrongf ully taken by him. That afterward, when tho next wages were paid to the said William H. Winn, your affiant. to wit: The sum ot $150 on the day of ifav. 1S90, the said Joues demand) d from affiant 475 "as his share of tho money," which affiant re fused to give, and thereupon, through tho false statement of the said Jones to the Mayor of the city, (Pearson) your affiant was reported as having resigned his position, and thereupon affiant took a trip West and', since his return, has been continuously annoyed by the demands of the said Jones for '"us share" thereof, towit: S75. That after affiant hati resigned tho said Jones req jested him to open the line and put the patrol system out of Older, which affiant re fused to do. That while the said Winn held the position of Superintendent of the patrtl system the said Jones took a box that was not in use and at tached it to the police line in the battery room and fixed it to leprescnt a hoc that was in use, and pull -d that box, causing false runs. The affiant is acitiztn and resident of tho city of Allegheny and avers his ability to prove tl'O above slated facts, and deeming the case one that is within the puriewot the provi sions ot the act governing sr-ch cases, and sot f.nth in tho inanuel of City Councils as a part uf the act of Assembly ol! IS74, commonly known as the Wallace act, and heretofore adopted by the city, he makes and files com plaint with the Mayor of said municipality. Mayor Wyman said last night that he had not decided what to c!o in the matter. He is going out of the city for a few days, and will lay it aside until lie returns. Chief Jones was at the Mayor's office when the affidavit was filed. He was asked what he had to say about it. "I haveu't read it," was the reply. "I can show n copy," said the reporter. "I don't want to see it," returned the Ch'e-. "But you know what the charges are," said the reporter. "Is there any truth in them?" "I won't say as to that, but I'm ready for a full investigation." With this the Chief spread a benign smile oyer his countenance and closed up rather tightly, refusing to talk further on the subject. S0VEREIGNS0F INDUSTRY. The Grand Council Will Tnke Xo Action Against Their Defanitinc; Treasurer A Now Code of Laws Submitted Nomina tion of Oliicers. Thp Grand Council of the Sovereigns of Industry met last evening in the Moorhead building. The quarterly reports showed that the organization has made considerable progress since the last meeticg. The total membership now numbers S,S87, aud tbe balance in tbe treasury, with bills paid, amounts to $1,2G1 55. It was expected that some action would be taken in reference to the defaulting treasurer, J. W. Patton, but the matter will drop indefinitely. A committee appointed some time ago to make a general revision of the laws governing the association re ported, submitting an entirely new code of laws, which was ordered printed and sent to the various subordinate councils for ap proval. The co-operative plan of the Grand President's, as outlined in detail in The Dispatch some time ago, received a black eye. The committee to which tbe matter had been referred offered a resolution simply giving the subordinate councils or individual members o' tbe organization leave to enter into the co-operative enterprise. It was the purpose of the Grand President to establish a general co-operative establishment uuder the management of the Grand Council. The report of the committee was referred back for further action. The following officers were nominated for the coming term, the election to take place at the February meeting: For Grand President, W. H. McCul lough. Principal of the Thirtv-sixth ward public school, and the present incumbent, J. D. Buckley, the latter declined; Grand Vice President, G. E. Kepple, G. M. Murphy and W. H. Graham; Giand Secre tary, Samuel Harper; Grand Treasurer, Theodore F. Anschutz, and about a dozen Trustees, from which five are to bs selected. With the close of the present term the Grand President, J. D. Buckley, will have completed his fourth year as the head of the organization. He has made a faithful and energetic officer, and his refusal to be a can didate for re-election was a matter of regret to many members of the Grand Council. HUSH OEATOBS TO COME HEBE. A Deputation Walts Upon tho Mayor and Asks 111m to Extend an Imitation. A deputation of gentlemen, headed by Rev.

GERADE SENTENCED TO BE HANGED An Artist Who is Accused of a Great Lack of Versatility. IESTEEDAT IN THU COUNT! COURTS. The Superior Court does not often sit on Saturday; in fact, it is a very unusual oc currence, but some of the Justices lelt a trifle homesick, and the desire was to clear up the work yesterday, so that they could go home. This desire, however, was not gratified, for the reason that there were too many arguments to be completed in one day, and at 2 o'clock Chief Justice Paxson ordered court adjourned, and the several Justices retired in order to hold a consulta tion ab.ut handing down some opinions to morrow. Five cases were left over, and they will be argued to-morrow, when the work for the term will be completed. The first argument yesterday was that of Fisher Beatty's appeal from C. P. No. 2, the Knoxville Land Improvement Com pany being the appellees. The case grows out of an indebtedness amounting to S102. Beatty, it appears, secured a judgment in court from Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Rankin for S180 57. The Knoxville Land Improve ment Company brought an action in as sumsrit against Beatty for rent due, and on securing judgment, attached the verdict money, which was paid into court. Beatty, on the land company's suit, claimed the benefit of the 300 exemption act. The Court disregarded this, and paid the money over to the laud company, hence the appeal. DAMAGES IN A COIXISIOJf. The appeal of Henry C. Bunting vs. Robert Hogsett, from Common Pleas No. 1, was the next argument heard. The suit grows out of injuries sustained by tho ap pellant and his wife in a collision at Lamont furnace, Southwest Penn Railroad, between a passenger train and en engine of the de fendant running upon a private track. The allegations are that the view of the track was hidden by a dump heap ot slag and cinder, which had been deposited there by the defendant, and was one of the features which reudcred the accident possible. Also that the engineer of the "dinkey" was ignorant and had been removed from charge of a stationary engine a short time before the collision. He had no watch or time card. The jury below returned a verdict of f 1,733 for Mr. Bunting aud S500 for his wife. The appeal was taken because of the Judge's charge, avhich is alleged to have unduly reduced the verdicts of the jury. The case is also appealed bv Mr. Haysett from tbe finding ot the jury below on the grounds that the collision was purely accidental, and he should not be held liable for any damages. The appeal of Levi E. Felty from C. P. No. 1 was argued by D. R. Jones, Esq. The suit grows nut of the sale of two acres of land in Mimtn township, the sum involved being 5450. LAST APPEAL OF TnE DAT. The appeal of Alderman David Doughty ironi the finding of Quarter Sessions, finished the extra day's argument. 'Squire Doughty, it will be remembered, was con victed with the celebrated Bauder gang for conspiracy iu the making and settling of suits. The argument was made by W. D. Moore, Esq., aud the specifications of error alleged was the admission of certain evi dence and the Court's charge. The argu ment for the appellee was made by W. D. Parker, Esq., who denied the specifications of error, and urged that the Court below was rather lenient in its charge to the jury and the language could have nothing bnt a beneficial effect.

GRANTED THE INJUNCTION. Judge Ewing Says Mr. Scott Can't be Kept Ont of His Works. Judge Ewing filed an opinion yesterday, in tbe suit ot John F. Scott against Edward Ford and others, of the Ford Plate Glass Company, in which Scott asked for nn in junction to restrain the defendants from in terfering with him in tbe discharge of his duties as director, the interference cited being forcible ejection from the works and a refusal to see the books of tbe firm. Judge Ewing granted the injunction, and in his opinion said the plaintiff as a director has duties to perform which require him to know the condition of its affairs. The President or directoi s have no more right to exclude him than he has to exclude them. The evi dence shows that they and the superintend ent of the works have undertaken to prac tically do so. The right of the plaintiff to examine into the business is conceded by the defendant's counsel, but it is argued that the application in the case is for a mandatory injunction, such as cannot be issued ou a preliminary hearing. If an order was asked for to undo that which has already been wrongfully done by the defendants, or to compel them to do something, the objection would be well taken, but in this case the plaintiff's right is equal to that of the defendants, and all that is necessary is to compel them in fut ure, and their agents, from wrongfully in terfering with the plaintiff in the exercise of his rights to examine the books and works of the corporation of which he is a director. ROUGH ON THE ARTIST. JudgeEuIng's Opinion of a Tickling House's Label-Work. Judge Ewing yesterday handed down an opinion in the equity suit of Heinz Brothers against Lutz Brothers. The parties are both in the pickling and preserving business, and the suit was brought to restrain the'de fendants from using a label on their goods like the one used by tho plaintiffs. Judge Ewing, in his opinion, said that, while there are several palpable differences in tbe labeh, there are also several things in which they are similar, "To put tbe case mildly," he added, "it would indicate a lack of versatility in the artist who got up the stock labels for the de fendants, so as not to resemble that of the plaintiffs'. But there are facts iu dispute which should be settled by testimony before any decree is made." In conclusion, he re fused the motion for a preliminary injunc tion. Sewlckley Wants Itedlstrlctlng. A petition was filed iu the Quarter Ses sions Court yesterday on behall of citizens of Sewickley borough to have the borough divided into wards. It would be to the ad vantage of the citizens and convenient to the voters. Judge White appointed Dr. R. McCready, Charles Atwell and L. M. Mil ler commissioners to inquire into the matter and report to court. Wants the Transfer Made. Judge Acheson, of the United Stites Court, heard nn argument yesterday on a question brought by H. T. Stewart to com pel Addison Allen to live up to an agree ment to a transfer of some coal land in Fayette county. The case was up before, when a decree was entered in default ou an answer by tho defendant. The argument yesterday was to take off the decree. 1890. SENTENCEDT0 DEATH. FRANK GERADE TO SWING FOR KILLING HIS STEPDAUGHTER. Jndge Magee IJefases Illm a New Trial The Solemn Words Spoken A long Deferred Sentence at Last Given Out Other Criminal Court Matters. In the Criminal Court yesterday Frank Gerade was sentenced to be hanged. The sentence was imposed by Jndge Magee, who at the opening of court, ovetruled the mo tion for a new trial made in the case. Gerade was then brought from jail, and District Attorney Johnston moved for judg ment. When Judge Magee asked if he had anything to say, Gerade replied, through an interpreter, that he never knew anything about the trouble until alter he was in jail, when his brother told him what he had done. Judge Magee then imposed the sen tence of death, directing that the prisoner be hanged at such time as the Governor by his warrant may appoint. The prisoner was then led back to jail. Gerade's crime was the killing of his 8-year-old stepdaughter, whom he disliked, by picking her up by the heels ard dashing her brains-out against a cradle. A plea of insinity was made, but two juries passed on the matter and found Gerade to be sane. John Paradine, who was convicted of in voluntary manslaughter for the death of Dr. Campbell, the Lawrenceville horse doctor, was fined S300 and costs, the court thinking the time Paradine spent iu jail imprison ment enough. Mandus Bossan, who was convicted three years ago of selling liquor witbouta license, was sentenced nine months to the work house. Bossan was steward of the Wash ington Irvine Literary Society, but the jury found that more liquor than literature was dispensed, and accordingly found Bossan guilty. He jumped his bail and disappeared, but returning home a short time ago, he was rearrested and sentenced yesterday. Matthew Dougherty, for ageravated as sault and battery, was sent six mouths to the workhouse. Annie Leyden, for assault and battery, was sent 24 hours to the work house. Henry Vogle, for aggravated assault and battery, was sent one year to the work house. W. McDonald, for unlawful wound ing, was sent four months to the work house. Levi Felty was fined ?50 and costs for pointing firearms. Samnel Walker will be placed on trial to morrow for murder. He shot and killed AVilltam Stewart during a quarrel at a picnic near Wilkinsburg. Both men were colored. To-Morrow's Trial Lists. Common Pleas No. 1 Westmghouse.

Officer Peoples yesterday arrested Fred Frowistky, Otto Kueppler and Joseph Mechler on avarrant3 charging them with larceny. The prisoners are drivers for George Schmidt, agent for a beer brewing firm. Schmidt has been losing a large quantity of beer for a long time. Several weeks ago he reported the matter to Inspector McAleese, who, after investigating, in formed Schmidt that ne was being robbed by some of bis own men, as careful watch ing failed to prove any outsiders connected with it. One feature of the case was that many of the barrels of beer delivered by Schmidt's drivers was found to be fiat when it reached the customers. Officer Peoples has been investigating the case lately. On Wednesday night he saw three men in Schmidt's establishment after clerks and proprietor had gone home. He watched them and saw them opening bar rels of beer and filling about eight or ten gallons from each barrel into bottles, which they packed into cases. The barrels were then closed up sigain and loaded on the wagons. The officer reported his discovery to Schmidt, who at once investigated anil found that his dishonest drivers were deliv ering these cases of beer to speak-easies and collecting the money, which they appropri ate! to their own uses. Then Schmidt cillcd Inspector McAleese in and suits were entred. The charge of larceny was pre ferred, and the three men were arrested. They are in Central station and will have a hearing to-morrow.
