"it is for the department to ilccido whether or not tho change was proper," said Mr. JIc Kcan. " e vi ill wait and see whether or not tho work will progress more rapidlj thin it has lately ilone." This ended the interview, and the gcuial Postmaster returned to his slumbers, probablj to dream of holding forth in a castle (not an air castle) rather than a soot De gritunied old potofhcc.

Thomas rawcett & Sons, Coal Oper ators, Uecome Embarrassed. CDL1IISATI0N OP OLD TH00BLES. The Sheriff Seizes Their Property, but All Debts Will be Paid. FINANCIAL CIRCLES ALL SEREXE Some surprise was created among river coal operators, yesterday, by the announce ment that Thomas Fawcett & Sons had struck a financial snag that threatened failure. This feeling was intensified when it was learned that the Sheriff had levied upon the firm's property in the interest of the Central Rank of tbis'city. This institution issued judgments and executions against the Grm for 1G3,000, which stand as first hens on all the property of Fawcett ic Sons, thus doubly securing the bank for the loans mentioned. Outside of people directly interested, the news created little interest The senior member ot the embarassed firm, JJlr. Thomas Fawcett, is in New Orleans. His son. Captain James Fawcett, was at the office all day long ettending to business, and dur ing the afternoon was seen by a DlsrATCH reporter. He said: "We do not object in the least to having the truth told about this trouble. In fact, wcpicfcrit, so that no unnecessary scare may follow. THE CAUSE OF THE FAIXUKE. "The firm is embarrassed. This state of affairs was brought about by various causes. For three or four years the coal business has been bad, but we would have risen superior to this handicap bad not other matters over which we had no control con fronted us. The firm owns property in the shape of coal lands, beats, lindmgs etc., from Webster, on the Monongahela river, to Now Orleans. Wo are in condition to pay every dollar we owo and have something left. This is true, even if some of our property has to be sold under the hammer, though of course we cannot give away what we have and como out oven." "Will vnu state what tbe liabilities of the firm arc?" "I prefer not to do so, just at present. I will not say that it is none ot The public's business, but when 1 tell you that our creditors are men w ho will not be affected by our trouble, you can see that it is largely a matter between them and the tlrm." "Will you resume operat'ons again?" "We may and we may not. It would be use less for me to give you a definite answer to this question one way or tbe other just at present. i hat will be decided later. There is one thing about it, while thete is no doubt plenty ot money in this city at tbe present time, it seems to be very close, and a man could hardly raise ready cash on Government bonds. Now if 1 should talk to you all night I could not tell you more ot me situation as it now exists." At the Central Bank, of which Mr. Thomas Fawcett is President, everything was as serene and lovely as a May morning. They confirmed the statements regarding tho legal steps that had been taken, as mentioned above, and said the indebtedness of the firm, 516o,000, was amply seenrcd. The officials said the total in debtedness of Faw cett S. Sons was probably S-J0O.KHI, while their assets would reach fully 600,000. Tbeyhad not the slightest anxiety abuut the outcome of the trouble, as it would be cleared up satisfactorily to all parties inter ested. XO FEAES BY FINANCIERS. One of tho best evidences that the embarass ment of the firm had created no stir in finan cial cire'es was found when a reporter entered the Germania Savings Bank. The officials, from top to bottom, w ere entirely ignorant of tbe matter, and this was at 3.30 o'clock in the afternoon. One of the gentlemen said that at noon he bad met several local bankers, and they had a general talk about local affairs. The Fawcett tronblj was not mentioned, as, in fact, it wis not known. The unanimous opin ion was that the business of this city was on a thoroughly sound footing, and that there were no breakers ahead. There is plenty of money in Pittsburg," con tinued tho gentleman, "but in accordance with the conservative methods of our bankers, it is not being put out very extensively. I don't know much about Fawrett & Bon, but their trouble is not a factor in financial circles." The officials of the First National Bank had beard a general mention of the Fawcett sus pension, but knew nothing as to the details, not having taken tho trouble to make any inquiry about it. 1 bey were satisfied that the'firm had ample assets lo pay every dollar of its debts, or at least thev had been so informed, and thought this was sufficient for the parties most Inter ested their creditois. Mr. W. II. Brown, Jr., of the well-known, firm of W. H. Brown's bons, said that he could see no reason for any other coal operators to be cuibairassed on account of the Fawcett failure, as that company was inuependent of any other concerns except its retail interests in Cincinnati and New Orleans. "The creditors of Thomas Kiwcett will receive their money, dollar for dollar," said Mr. Brown. "I know personally that the assets are more than the liabilities, and it is only a question of time nntil he can straurhten around and get at his money. The mony market is such at present that he could not borrow from the banks, and even if he could there was no inducement for him to have done so. There has ben no money in the coal busiuess for a year or so, and there was no en couragment for him to try to pull through. Captain W. W. O'Neil said that the failnre wonld not effect the river business, and his opinion was shared by the majority of the coal operators. IN BUSINESS FOB FOETY TEAES. Captain Thomas Fawcett laid the founda tion for the firm in IS50, when he began ship ping coal to NevrOileans. During the war he and Commodore Joseph Walton made hun dreds ot thousands of dollars furnishing coal to the Government and to private interests. In the panic of IS73 the captain lost a lot ot monev. and he also was a heavy loser in the firm of Ball iCo, of Canton, O., agricultural implement manufacturers. The Captain had added very extensively to the commerce of the rivers, during his time. Among tho steamers he has built are the Boaz Painter Na 2, Ormshv. Lion, Dart. Oakland, Acorn, Boaz No. 2, Maggie and Convoy. Tho firm ranks fifth among tbe operators and snippers of this city. The first is Walton fc Co Then conies W. H. Brown A Sons. W. W. O'Neil & Co.. and John A. Wood 4 Sons. Tho court records show that the exact amount for which the execution was issued ncainst the firm b the Central Bank was S163, 157 51 The parties named are Thomas Fawcett, James T. Fawcett and Thomis Fawcett, Jr., compnsingthe firm. Tbe execution was issued on a confessed judgment for 320.315 OS, double the amount of the real debt. A judgment amouuting to about 21,000 was entered against the firm at Grcenshurg on Saturday. In speaking of the failure yesterday, a gen tleman who Is familiar with tho situation said that Fawcett fc bons received a severe setback in the failure of the big coal syndicate known as tbe Pittsburg and Southern Coal Company. The company was made up of the leading oper ators of this section, and Fawcett & Sons were heav y stockholders. The firm went to the wall tbiough certain members going into the cut throat business, as two or three leading mem bers allege, and not living up to their agree ments hliorlly after this failure Captain Faw cett sold his resilience, on Craft avenue, to Mr. D. P. Relghard for 133,000. DENIED OmCIAUT. The Philadelphia Company's Secretary Sits Dovvi on Scarecrow Itumors. Humors relating to the Philadelphia Com pany have Tor a lew days past been circulated on Fourth avenue to a degree which compelled attention. They were various in purport, but seemed to have had the common quality of be ing all fale. Reports of this class are to a cer tain point best disregarded wholly, but yester day when they reached the stage of being men tioned in an afternoon paper, a DISPATCH re porter called at the company's office and by tho secretary was given the following absolute de nial of them, which will probably end tbe gossip. Mr. TJptergraff, Secretary of the com pany, said: "It is entirely wrong. In fact the company never was in a better financial condi tion than it is at present. The change from quarterly to monthly payments gives us more money at all times, and even if jre were In bad straits this would tide us over. W e have heard tbe rumors several days, and have been trying to find out where they started, but so far have been unable to do so. We think they started with stock brokers, but can't say positively. I can't see where any grounds could possibly bo found for such rumors. The company's re ceipts are bigger than they ever were, and tbe earnings are also greatly inoreased over last year. We are carrying less paper now than tre -were a year aeo." Might it lie that the recent shortartof gas give a chance for such rumors to start?" was asked. 'I don't see why," replied the secret.irv. "The supply of gas doesn't mitter so much when the receipts arc mot lessened. For instance, the Pittsburg Gas Company doesu't supply one fourth as much as we do, but they receive 1 per thousand. We have shut off some of the mills, but the price was increased to 15 cents, and we receive just as much money. There is positively no grounds," concluded Mr. Uptor graff, "for the foolish rumors;" Mr. Westinchouse and Mr.,Caldwell could not he seen, as tbe former was out of the city and the latter was not at the company's build ing when the reporter called. But the secre tary's denial was explicit and absolute. HOT DISCOUNTING PAPEE. Banks Prefer to Keep the Money on the Counters. "Pittsburg banks are very careful these days." remarked a director of one of them yes terday. "Rather than discount paper wo pre fer to keep tho money on our counters. It be longs to the people, and we propose to keep it safe. There is no occasion for a scare here, ana money for good bnsiness Is plentiful." Enough to Grease Juggernaut's Car. When Frank L. Stephenson, of Whitney A. Stephenson, was told that tbe Philadelphia Gas Company, had asked for a receiver ho asked: "What blanked fool would consider it necessary for the company to ask for a re ceiver, when it is collecting from tho public $10,000 a day. enough to lubricate tho wheels of the car of Juggernaut?" DIVIDED ON EELIGION. An Elopement Spoiled liecauso n Girl's Parents Objected to Hor Marriage. Inspector McAleese yesterday received a telegram from Chief of Polico McCleary, of Monongahela Citv, telling him to look out for an doping couple from tint place, named Louis Webster and Annie Reck. Detectivo Kobmson started out and easily spotted the couple as they were crossing tho Smithfield street bridge, making anxious inquiries for the marriago license olhYe. They were taken into custody and detained until last night in the sta tion matron's quarters, when Chief McCleary arrived and escorted them home. Webster is a miner and 21) ears of age. His sweetheart is 17 and tbe daughter of a miner. They are badly gone on each other, but Web ster Is a Protestant, while Miss Itcck's peoplo arc Catholics, and in consequence they decline to give their daughter's hand in marriage. YESTEEDATS ACCIDENTS. Tho Chapter of Serious Mishaps Was Well Filled. Charles King's hand was cut off by a Pitts burg and Lake Erie tram yesterday Oscar Harness, aged 12, was probably fatally injured by falling from the fourth story of a new house on Lacock street, Allegheny, jestcr dav. Walter Johnson had his arm broken by being caught in a shaft at the Pittsburg Brass Works, Allegheny, vesterday. Mary Douglass, a llttlo Polish girl, was instantlv killed by a Baltimore and Ohio train at McKeesport yesterday. David Collins, aged 55, one of the best known citizens of the Fifteenth ward, was instantly killed on the Allegheny Valley Railroad yesterday. STABBED IN THE BACK. Two ami Men Come to Blows, and One 3Iny Die From His Wounds. John Dillon ana Teddy Reagan bad a quar rel out Penn avenue yesterday afternoon, when Reagan plunged a knife into Dillon's back, in flicting a dangerous wound. Both men worked in Howe, Brown & Co.'s mill, and have always been good friends. Reagan was locked up in the Twelfth ward station. The cut is about two inches wide and is very deep on the small of the back. Dr. Heiber Is afraid the intestines may have been reached, and Dillon may not recover. An Interesting Service. The memorial services in honor of the late Dr. S. M. Benham and Major A. P. Morrison by their comrades of Duquesne Post, of the Grand Army, will be held this evening. The service will be held in the post room in Union Veteran Hall. Sixth avenue, and as the meet ing is open to the public, a large number of the relatives and many friends of tbe deceased will be present. Addresses by Chaplain Rev. William R. Cowl, Colonel Chill W. Hazzard. and Dr. J. Wilson Wishart, and music by an excellent quartet, are part of what will prov. a very interesting service. A Cldld Badly Injured. Philip Stein, a bricklayer living on Reaton's alley, went home yesterday noon in a drunken condition. He was angry because his wife was absent at a store, and when she returned threw a heavy bread pan at her. It missed tbe woman, but struck their 5-year-old daughter, a corner of tbe pan penetrating to tbe brain. Dr. lrvln pronounced the wound serious, and Offi cer Rosenblatt arrested Stein and locked him up in the Eleventh ward station to await the result of the child's injuries. They Favor a Divide. A meeting ot Twenty-first ward citizens who live beyond the recent division line of the Lincoln School Board was beld last night in the Rown Avenue M, E Churcb. After learn ing tbat tho school deb was 05,000 it wis de cided to ask Superintendent Luckey to assist them in getting the district divided and placed in shape Another meeting will be held in tbe church Friday evening, when a vote of tho citizens will be taken on the question of division. Anxious to Get Fordable Streets. The borough fever continues to rise in the village of McKee's Rocks, or Chartiers, or whatever its name may eventually be, and while tho Inhabitants do not expect tbe streets of the new municipality to bo paved like thoso of tho New Jerusalem, they do hope that in time the longest-legged individual in the place may bo able to w ade them on stilts. Two Annual Meetings. The annual meeting ot tba Pittsburg and Connellsville road will he held at the B. & O. depot next Monday. The indications ,are that the old Board of Directors will be re-elected.

SOME OF THE SCRAPS That Made the General Assembly of the K. of L. Interesting. HOW A. M. DEWEY WAS KICKED OUT Powderlv's Political Plan Got Thronsli in a Hntilated Form. JOTTINGS FK0J1 1HE LABOR CIECLES James Campbell, ex-President of tbe Window Glass "Workers' Association, and the representative of tbat organization to the General Assembly of the Knights of Labor, returned yesterday morning from Denver, where be had been attending the annual meeting of the assembly. As stated in these columns a few days ago this session was tbe liveliest ever held, and resulted in tbe expulsion of one of the delegates because he refused to nuke an apology to Mr. Powderly. Mr. Campbell was seen at bis home on tbe Sonthside yes terday afternoon, ana related the facts, as follows: A. M. Dewey, Chairman of the Penn sylvania Legislative Committee, and one of the leading members of tbe assembly, was voted out because of his connection with the late campaign in this State. During the early part of the campaign Mr. Dewey ad dressed circulars to both candidates for Governor, with a view to learning their positions on tbe various political questions. ATTEJIM TO WARN THE OEDEE. This was followed by a circular from Powderly, which Dewey regarded as unfair, and an attempt to pull the vote of the order for Pattison, aad ho Immediately sent out a circular calling the attention of tbe members to Powderly's actions and warning them not to be deceived by the General Master Workman's statements. More circulars wero exchanged by both sides, some of which were printed in The Dispatch. Powderly and Dewey both were quoted as criticising each other's actions. Before going to Denver, Mr. Dewey arranged jvitli a Btltunore newspaper to furnish the nevvs of tho convention A letter, in which he requested the Baltimore editor to write an uuiionai lavonng a rauicai cnaugo in Doth officers and policy of the Knights of Labor, was furnished to Mr. Powderly. and the latter asked tho General Assembly to expel Mr Dewey because ho had thus dared to criticise his superior ofllcers. The row started in the morning of Saturday a week ago, and continued all that day and the most of the following Monday. First a motion was made to expel Dewey. Then that was withdrawn and a motion pased expunging everythirg about it from tho minutes, as the General Assembly bad no jurisdiction over the matter. This did not satisfy Dewcv's enemies, ana a resolution was offered, setting forth that he bad been proven guilty of conduct unbe coming a member ot the order, and proposing to exclude bim from the General Assembly for five years and suspend him from the order for one year. Pending the consideration of the resolutions, Dewey was given notice to apologize for his action in writing tbe letters and circulars, and to appear before the convention for censure. Mr. Do ey did not go in person, but sent a let ter to tho assembly declining to appear for either purpose, and said that his circulars re lating to the Pennsylvania campaign had been purely non partisan and were issued by author ity vested in him by the Btate Legislative Com mittee. The matter, he stated, had no busi ness In tbe General Assembly, and he declined to be held responsible for any acts in that con nection, except bv the body which elected bim as its chief executive officer. HOW DEWEY WAS EXPELLED. When his reply was read to the assembly, the resolution providing for Mr. Dewey's expul sion for five years, or nntil such time as he shall write his apology to Mr. Powderly, was passed by a small majority. Mr. Dewey said afterward that he had no re grets to offer; tbat be believed tbe order is des tined soon to go down anyway under the methods of its present officers. The only re gret; be bad were tbat there is no reform move-men- to take it place in the cities. He claimed his friends in tbe assembly are the men who have built up tbe order, and made it pos sible for Mr. Powderly to pose as a leader, while bis enemies are men of no particular standing, cither as citizens or members of the order. Last Friday evening the assemble remained in session nntil long after midnight, consider ing Mr. Powderly'.-political proposition. A committee bad been appointed to repot- on tbe matter, and it recommended independent polit ical action on tht part of indnitrial and re form fnrcei in the country. The scrapping match lasted for hours, tbe debate being the hottest that took place during the session. Mr. Powderly had several times to call on tbe ser-geant-at-arms to keep peace within tbe walls. The report ot tbe committeo was finally adopt ed, amid the greatest applause. The repo.t provides that Mr. Powderly shall confer mil correspond with tho presidents and chief ofllcers of other Industrial organizations, with a view to arranging for the holding of a national industrial conf erenca on the basi ot tbe platfo.m adopted at the St Louis confer ence of 1SS9; the purpose of tbe conference be ing to form a solid and harmonious union of all industrial and reform forces that will enact tbe principles of tbe preamble of tho Knights of Labor. It also puts the assembly on record as binding tbe order to carry out any pledges made by its officers and delegates in these con ferences, and turther binding the members of tbe order to support any political ticket put in tbe field on a platform of national reform. SOME OP THE OTHER SUBPBISES. There were some other surprises during the session. Mr. Campbell says that Powderly made the request that his salary be reduced from 5,000 to $3,500. In this be is unlike other heads of organizations, but it is significant that ho bad no opposition for re-election. Hugh Cavanaugh, of Cincinnati, succeeds Mr. Wheat, of Iowa, as Worthy Foreman, and Congressman elect Davis, of Kausas, tikes John Costcllo's place on the Executive Board. Secretary Hays was re-elected without opposi tion, while John Devlin, of Detroit, John Hol land, of Florida, and A. W. Wright, of Canada, were continued on tbe Executive Board. Speaking in a general way about the session, Mr. Campbell said tbat outside of the Dewey and pqlitical rumpuses the meoting was harmonious, but he is very much afraid these things would hurt the organization. "It was the wrong place," said he, "to introduce the Dewey matter. It was a New Hampshire dele gate brought the matter up, but it was a bad thing to do. Mr. Dewey is to call a meeting of the Legislative Committee within ten days after tbe Legislature meets, and that was the proper placo to settle the difficulty. For my part, I think Mr. Dowey did nothing to merit the action of the assembly, for I know that tbe machinery of this orcanlzation was worked for Pattison, and if Dewey dejervod expulsion others did, too." HOT A FULL COMBINATION. Some Western Firms Have Not Joined the American Glass Company. James A. Chambers went to Chicago last evening to attend a meeting of the American Glass Company, the latest window glass com bination. Mr. Chambers stated that at least a halt dozen large firms in tbe West bad not jet joined the new company, and they would know at this meeting what they intended to do. II they refused to join, Mr. Chambers says, that is an end of the combination, as it could not possibly exist without them.

Trouble nt Anderson Depuy, Co.'s Over a Technical Point, What threatened at one time to be a very serious complication at Anderson, Depuy Co.'s steel works, was settled yesterday by Mr, Robert McMunn, who has charge of the sheet mill. It seems tbat tho friction was caused by the fact that there wasn't quite work enough to occupy double turn and too much for single turn, and to bridge the matter tbe men were asked to make a turn on Saturday. This tbey at first refused and a general strike was for a time imminent. This has been happily averted, for tbe present at least, and the satis faction resulting, It is hoped, will be perma nent.

PLANS f0 SUPPLY THE SOUTDSIDE By Drilling Deep Wells in All of the Squares of Each Ward. 0ED1XAKCE WANTED FK0M COUNCILS Pure, sparkling water in abundance has been struck by the drillers putting down the test well for citizens of the Twenty-sixth ward, Sonthside. It is now proposed to have a similar well drilled in each of the 24 squares of the ward. A petition to Councils for an ordinance to that effect will be made soon, the Twenty sixth ward citizens lo stand the expense. It is further planned to have each ward on the Southside take up the movement to ob tain pure drinking water. With an aver age of 15 wells to each of the 13 wards on the Southside it would make a total of 195 public wells. It is thought tbat the cost need not exceed $200 each, or a total of $39, 000. This sum would be raised by tbe wards according to tbe number of wells put down in each. It is argued that the expenditure would directly benefit the stockholders and would be a paying outlay of cash when health is considered. THE KnSDLT OP AGITATION. The movement by the Twenty-sixth ward citizens was first suggested in an article which appeared in The Dispatch a short time since. Several public meetings were held in the Humboldt schonlhouse, and at last a subscription paper started to raise tbe neces sary money to put down a test well. Sub scription blanks were put in the hands of prominent residents of tho ward, and soon 300 had been subscribed. John Connors contracted to put the well donu, and has been drilling two weeks, until lato Saturday night, when a veinfef the purest water was struck at the 170-foot mark. The pump was put into shapo Sunday, and yester dav afternoon it was found that there was 63 feet of water in the well. The strike was the talk of tho ward yeter day afternoon, and at most any time in tho day persons could be seen at the pump, testing the water or holding it up to the light and smiling as they saw it sparkle. Jacob Schneider, one of the prime movers in tho enterprise, was found at the well. He was delighted, and said: "Now, goodbv MonongaheH mud and tilth; we shall not be obliged to drink you more." Mr. Schneider took a bucket of the water home Sunday night, and yesterday morning it was as clear as ever, without a bit of sediment at the bottom of the vessel. GOOD WATEE TO DEINK. The water has a pleasant mineral taste, and is pronounced excellent by all who visited the well and drank to the health of tbe new pure water movement. It Is declared entirely free from bacteria or any disease germs, and an ex cellent, healthy drinking water. The idea from tbe first was only to obtain a pure drinking water, so that the new scheme may not make any differonco with the receipts of the MonongihLla Water Company. As soon as the Twenty-sixth ward people ob tain their ordinance tbey will proceed to put down tbe other 23 wells. It is probable tbat tbe movement will not become general nntil the plan is seen to work in the Tweuty-sixtb ward. However, tbe citizens in a number of tbe other wards are already talking about trying tho scheme. PIANOS AND OBGANS. Only the Most Reliable and Durable at MELLOB & HOENE'S, 77 FIFTH AVENUE. At the old and famous musical establish ment of Mellor & Hoene, 77 Fifth avenue, are found nonebut the best and most reliable makes of pianos and organs, with such well-known names as Hardman, A. B.

The names alone are a guarantee of the great excellence of these instruments, as such names in the piano nnd organ making world mean standard the highest and durability the greatest Their makers turn out none that are not absolutely perfect, and without tbe slightest blemish, and built from tbe finest quality of material. They cannot afford to injure the great reputations they iiave gained for their pianos and organs, for the mere matter of a few dollars and cents, by the use of cheap material and hurried construction. Nothing that is of second quality, nothing that Is not first class is used in the construction of these instru ments, so that in buying one of these makes a mistake cannot be made, as they are built solid and of tbe greatest durability, to last and give good service; and having also the purest quality of tone, sweet and refined, but at the rame time of great volume and sonorous carrying power. They are built for many years' use and not for a few years' use only, as some instruments are, made only to sell, and which become almost use less in a short time so far as music is con cerned.

Mr. Henrlcks Objects to Having a Resolu tion Killed by an Amendment Elds on the New Water Works Opened No Kec ommendaiion Made. Tbe Alleghenv Water Committee meeting wound up last night in an interesting little fight, in which Mr. Henricks was pitted against the wbole committee, including the Chairman. Controller Brown had submitted a statement showing that tbe valuation of the citv at (bo end of the fiscal year would he $30, 299,550; tLe city debt. $1,7(3.500. and that under the act of 1874 ihe city might increase that debt 1,059 900 without a vote of the people, and with it f 1.751,108 50, making tbe extreme debt 3,520, 1X3 60. Tho subcommittee appointed to receive bids on the erection of a new water works reported, submitting 27 separate bids.ranging all the w ay from $225 000 tor a filter alone to ri,8i5,000 for a plant complete with all appliances. Mr. Swin dle made a motion that the hid of the Mnnicl- f pal Water Improvement Manufacturing Com pany oi ji,.xi,uw ior a piant complete oe recommended f or acceptance. Mr. Henricks then offered a resolution pro viding tbat all the bids be submitted to Coun cils with a recommendation that tbe Fmance Committee be instructed to canvass tne cost of tbe various plans of construction, aim report without delay a scheme to meet the indebted ness to be created, and tbe matter be submitted to a vote of tbe people to determine whether the debt shall bo increased beyond 5 per cent of the city's valuation. Quite a heated discussion followed the offer ing of this resolution, which resulted in an amendment being put and pased providing that the whole matter be referred to Councils without a recommendation. Chairman Brown hastily announced that he was ready for a motion to adjourn, when Mr. Henricks jumped to his feet and wanted to know what was to bo done with bis resolution. Chairman Brown Why, tbe amendment killed rour resolution. Mr. Henricks I beg your pardon, it did not. This reolntion is a part of the proceedings ot this committee, and I want it in tho minutes. Chairman ilrown Well, if there are no ob jections Mr. Henricks Objections or no objections, that resolution is going in tbe minutes. Chairman Brown Well, I decide that it does not. Mr. Henricks There is Chairman Hunter, of Common Council; I am willing to submit this to him, and II he says 1 am wrong I'll put the resolution in the waste basket. Chairman Hunter No, 1 am not in thi3, gen tlemen. Mr. Henricks No, I know; and you do not want to be. "Take a vote on it." said Mr. Knox. "I dqn't want a vote to be taken," chimed in Mr. Henricks. 1 do not propose to be sat down upon in ibis matter, and duilng the confusion that followed some one made a motion ta ad journ, and it was quickly passed. Mr. Henricks was mad. In fact he was in a rage. But the resolution will go to Councils as a part of the proceedings of the meeting: He said after the meeting that it was a game of freezo out, but be had presided over committees long enough to be sure he was right. The clerk took charge of the resolution. HIS IHJUB1F.S FATAL. Looking for the Man Who Struck O'Toole With a Hatchet. Martin O'Toole died at the Mercy Hospital yesterday from a fractured skull.

The Name or Belmont Familiar to Local Turf Patron Something or One or HIa Old Jockeys Several Souvenirs of tho Hanker. August Belmont, whose death is noted In another column, was well known to thou sands of people in this city, whose tastes and inclinatiofii have from time to time led them into speculations on the jumpers. During the reign of the pool rooms in this city his stable was always watched carefully, for it was known that, bar accident, every one would at least get a run for their monev. There is one man In this city who, 20 years ago, was connected with the Belmont stable as a jockey, and that is John C. Stroup. tbe well known restaurateur. At thas i.im5 drainer Rod-ers. who was with Captain 8. S. Browu last season, had charge of tha stable. On July 4. 1370 Mr. Stroup had the mount on Mr. Belmont's filly, Biddy Malone. hi a mile dash at Monmouth Park. She carried 105 pounds and won the race In 1 13, which time created a new record at that date, and it stood nntil some time in tbe close of the seventies, when Alarm clipped oft half a second at Sara, toga. There were 10,000 people present at tha race, and the event created a wild scene. Blue Stone finished second to Biddy, and Hotspur third. After tbe race Mr. Belmont presented the successful jockey with a piece of Plata bearing the following inscription: Presented to J. C Stroup by A. Belmont, July 4, 1S70, At Monmouth, N. J. lie also gave bim the saddle, which weighed bnt 20 ounces, and tbe bine and white cap, still the Belmont colors, all of which Mr. Stroup cherishes as valuable souvenirs of his early turf experiences. In speaking of Mr. Belmont last night ho said his orders were to win always, andif any of his horses failed to do so he took particular pains to learn the reasons why tbey did not. Mr. Belmont was an ardent patron of tbe turf for years, and last season bis stables won $109,000, Potomac being at tbe head of tha lot. 8-But. Mousq. Suedes. Sages, aubergine and boreals.
