The movement is meeting with unexpected favor, and the fact is now assured that these powerful bodies will be united in the com mon cause of mutual protection and de fense. l'or some time the grocers have had under consideration a form of an article of agree ment to be presented to the various labor organizations of Pittsburg, Allegheny and nearby towns, the objects being those men tioned above. At the last meeting of the association an agreement was decided upon and ou Monday and yesterday it was con sidered by the executive committees of nearly all or the labor organizations iu this vicinity. As showing its popularity it may be stated that up to last night it had been signed by the authorized officers of over 40 lodges and associations. Not Taking Step in tho Dark. Copies of the document had been laid be fore the different lodges early enough to al low the members an opportunity to properly consider the provisions, so that those sign ing aid not take what might be termed a step in the dark. A representative of this paper secured a copy of the document, which is given in full below. The conditions are sufficiently explicit to need no further ex planation. The article reads: This is an article of agreement, made and en tered into this 1S0, between tho Retail Grocers' Protective Association, of Pittsburg.

Master Workman Evans, o. D. A. Xo. 3, was seen in regard to the combine last night. He said lie knew of the movement, hut had not read a copy of the articles. He was informed as to the main features of the same, and expressed the opinion that it would result in a great deal of good. lie was particu larly ell satisfied with that portion of the document which applied to tbo car ing for labor organizations during times of trouLle. While orders of this kind had beu iccognizcd heretofore by individuals, this movement would create vastly stronger resources. Mr. Evans was asked if he knew of any par. ticular grievances that required the attention of the tun organizations. He said that he did not, and furthermore, understood that none had been mentioned. It was merely a protec tive movement on both sides, as lie under stood It. Mr. Evans was asked for his opinion of the clause coutainimr the declaration relative to un worthy roods. He said heuould not express any opinion dir.ectly on that clause, not having read it, but so far. as he was personally con cerned he never purchased auythinz that he considered in this class. Up concludeu by statimr that the orcanization of which he was a. member had not ct taken any part in the movement so far as he knew. Other labor representatives wero seen, hot they would say uoihlnz about the affair one way or the other. The grocers encountered w ere also extremely reticent about making anv statements. Several calls were made at the headquarters of the association, but the rooms were lonnd locked on each occasion, and none of the officials could be found. - CARING FOE THE HEEOES.

KEJOICINfi IN G00SE-HAVJIN Over the Kcturn of O.io Lost Feather Bed Yesterday. A pathetic story was unearthed on Water street yesterday afternoon. A man appeared at tho Pittsburg and Cincinnati Packet office to inquire for a feather bed that had been lost in transportation. It could not bo found any where, and the man was disconsolate, even when informed that the company would stan d the loss. It wasn't the value of the feather bed so much as the fact that his mother-in-law had given it to him, and the goose from which she plncked the feathers had grown' so aged that she went to feather her nct in goose-haven. With the story pulling at their-heartstrings. the men made another search for the boat, and snugly stored an ay in one corner was found tho product of "Aunt Snsan's old gray goose." The owner tucked his burden up under his chin and climbed un the w-haif with a con tented smile playing like sunshine in the place where his tears had slowly trickled nut a few moments before. There is more rejoicing in goose-haven over one loit feather tick taat is lound than orcrlOU new feather Deds. LONG IIST 0E TEACHEES Klccted Last Evening by tho Allegheny Board of chool Control.

NO KOBE TEANSFEBS OE CUTS. Controller aiorrovr Says, tho Treasurer's Book Mint Not be Mutilated. Yesterday Controller Morrow issued an order that hereafter no transfers or cuts shall bo al lowed on property after the Assessor's books are written up and placed in the City Treas urer's office for the current year. Tho fiscal 5 ear must close on the 1st of February. Any changes necessary will havo lobe made by ex oneration in the legal way. This order was issued because the books in the Treasurer's office wero being constantly mutilated. Under the system now in vogue a clerk would go into the City Treasurer's office, and, by running a red line "through the name and amount, make the assessment whatever he wanted, and there would bo no record of it. CEAWPISH TALKED ABOUT. l'or the Edification of the Iron City Micro scopical Society. The Iron City Microscopical Society held Its regular monthly meeting last night, in its rooms in tho Academy of Sclcnco and Ait, Fifth street.

The walls of the room were covered with many large drawings, showing the anatomy and structure of tho crawfish, and numerous specimens of the animal and its near relatives, from tho extinct trilobito to the lobster, were at hand for illustration. Tho lecture was listened to with interestby the members, and an entertaining discussion followed. FOUND IT TOO LABGE. A TJniontown Miss Who Left Home to See the World for Herself.

She related her sorrowful story to Officer Michael Wright, and betook her to the T en t J -eighth ward station and Sergeant McQuaide nut her to lied to dream of hnnic.

Tliej EelD.se to Recant or Show Contrition lor Their Course. PKESBITEES AND POLITICS DITEnGE In the quaint 'old Reformed Presbyterian Church structure of "Wilkinsburg yesterday one might easily have persuaded himself that he hail gotten back into Scotland about the close of the seventeenth century, when the devil got a belt between the lug and horn every time he raised bis malignant bead ngainst the supporters of the solemn league and covenant. From the father in Israel, wilh his gray Galway formal cut of whiskers, to the keen, hair-splitting, metaphysical D. D., and thence back to the mothers in Israel, whose appearance was fully as pronounced as the fathers, nnd then to the blooming daughters, who, notwithstanding their budding loveli ness, could not hide their relationship with all the orthodox that ever inhabited the "Land o' Cakes." They all showed also the constitutional ability that carried their an cestors through the ten-hour religious serv ices of 200 years ago. The day had been set for the libeling be fore the Pittsburg Presbytervof IIovs. O. II. Jlilligan, of the Hast End; E. 31. Milligan, Parnassus; II. W. Temple, Iirookland; W. L. Samson, HcKecsport, and II. W. Ttced, Youngstown, five young men whose united ages would scarce make a centurv and a half. It is locally, at least, well known that these young men have for some months. past belonged to a body holding to what is Known as the East End platform on the question of participation of Covenanters in civil governmental affairs. A COPT Or THE CHARGES. The following is the libel or charges upon which the day's proceedings Tere based: Whereas, alio following of divisive courses from the doctrine and order which the church has solemnly rocogmzed and adopted is a hein ous sin and scandal contrary to the word of God and to the profession nf the Reformed Presbyterian Church founded thereon, and to the ordination vows of the ministrv of said church, Itoinans 10-17, terms of communion nnmber (i. Book of Discipline, chapter 3, formula of queries, number G and 9. 1 et it is true that ycu Rev. H. V. Kecd are cuilty of the scandal ab.ivo stated in so far as you, the said Ilcv. Hugh V". Heed, on or about tbo22J day of July. 1S90, in association with other ministeisnf said cliurch. known and unknown to us, did, as declared by you October 15, 1S90, at Wilkinsburg. Pa., before this Pitts burg Presbytery attenu a meeting held at tho East End Koformed Presbjterian Church, Pittsburg, at which meeting was adopted a platform of principles, subsequently circulated, and containing, with other statements winch are at variance with the established order in this church, the follow ing article, namely: 'That persons who mako a creditable profession of Christ, should be received into church membership on their acceptance of our testimony and terms of communion, witbont holding ihcm to our explauailou in the matter of political dissent or in other questions," which article is op posed to the church discipline, and issubversivo of the fundamental and covenanted position of the Reformed Presbjterian Church in relation to the matter of political dissent, and to which platform nf principles known as the 'East End platform,' yon, the said Rev. Hugh V. Reed, did ou different occasions, namely, on meeting of this Pittsburg Presbytery, held at Wilkinsburg, P.i., October 15, and at a meeting at tho same place, November 4, 1890, give j our approval in disregard of your public profession and vows at ordination following division courses from the doctrine and order which the Reformed Presbvtcrian Church has solemnly recognized and adopted, which being i lounu relevant anu proven against yon, you ought to be proceeded against by the censures ot the Lord's house."' . cosYExnra or tiie coi?fekenct3. ' The Presbytery convened promptly at 10 o'clock A. it., the time set, as might be ex pected, and got dnw-n to businets after (he ceremonies usual on snch occasions; Dr. David McAlister, of the Eighth Street Church, Moderator; W. R. Laird, Clerlr. The animation might he said to havo been fully developed when Rev. H. W. Temple offered a paper as an overture, or a common platform on which both Presbytery nnd tho adherents to the East End platform might stand. There were some strong expressions ot opinion that this olive branch ought to be sufficient, but such expressions diun't, as a rule, come from the silver-headed. The report o' tho Judicial Committee- was approved. It advised that Prof. D. IS. Wilson, of the Allegheny Theological Seminary, and Rev. A. Kllpatnck, of Valencia, Pa., conduct the prosecution. Tho Moderator asked tho accused to come forward, when Rev. II. W. Temple presented the following paper signed by all live and given as a basis for settlement: "First We do not hold the East End plat form as a bond of union in the R. P. Church, but as an expression of individual opinion sent forth for the purpose of correcting current mis representation. -Second As officers of the tt. P. Church we have kept and intend to keep the laws of this church iii regard to voting at civil elections and holding civil office. "Third Wc will not in anydisordcrly manner maintain the views expressed in the above-mentioned East End platform." HOW TROUBLE COULD BE SAVED. Dr. R. J.George made a statement Intimating that such paper offered soonerin the discussion ui'mht have saved trouble. To this Mr. Temple replied that the statement was not true. Mr. Temple did not cxhibitany bad temper, and Dr. George did not reply. A motion to accept Mr. Temple's paper as a basis of settlement and drop proceedings Mas lost, and it was decided to consider the paper first. After some talk Dr. Sprowl insistcdth.it the trial should go on until everything was made plain.- Rev. W. J. Coleman thought two minutes too short time to give each member for discussion anu though uo action was taken tho limit was notenforced. After Rev. Tnmple had explained that the subscribers to the East End platform were not disloyal to the R. P. Church, Prof. Wilson stated that tho declaration should have been made a month ago. He advised the defendants in plead guilty and express contrition, and tho Presbytery could make a minute of it. The matter was discussed and nut through nil the preliminary paces. Rev. Temple and EL M, Milligan made an effort to bo allowed to vote, but were overruled. Rev Crozier put in a good word for tho defense onco or tivicc, but Prot. Wilson was loaded for bear and insisted that they must make a retraction, and. Rev. Arm strong held that the paper was of too much im ?ortance to be dealt with hastily. Finally, Rev. I. II. George moved to consider tho report of Judicial Committee, which was as follows: "1 We disavow- the Hist End platform as a bond of union within the Reformed Presby terian Cliurch as other than an explanation of individual opinion, and we hereby announce our withdrawal fiomthe organization formed at the East End meeting. 2 We encage to abide by the existing laws of this church as to voting at civil elections and holding office and to carry them out in tho exercise of our office. "3 We engage not to propagate contrary views to the above while holdlnir the position of ministers of tho Presbyterian Church." THE WAY TO SETTLE TIIE MATTER. Finally Rev. E. M. Milligau said, after all sorts of argument bad been used to get a re traction, "1 suppose if the Court cannot accept our paper, trial might as well commence at once," and Prof. Wilson said ihat if that was the ullimatlon be might as well'withdraw tho paper, and Rev. H. H. George contended that the only way to settle the matter, was to go to the bottom of it. Dr. George held they should not bo satisfied short of an avowal of an Intention to break up that East End organization. A dispute anise as lo tho Iangupga necessary to express the retraction of the accused. One of them, Mr. Milligan, thought. it strange that anything more explicit was needed, the pros ecution insisting that the word "disavoid' slioulC be substituted for ,-do not hold." When it was insisted upon, ho.ennld nut understand that ha had done anything wrong In tho East End oiganizationi and'sald it as a Presbyterian and a Christian. In conclusion, he said: "I will not say that I would .not attend another such meeting." ' - Moderator McAlister hereupon, remarked that the defendants wero coming in with a stay of proceedings, and said they should havo noth ing to say. He remarked that he had given both sides more latitude than usual iu sucn Prayer bv Dr. Sprout and a good dinner gotten uo by the slsterboou. had a mollifying effect, and at 1:30 P. 3L all met again' in a good humor. Rev. H. H. George, on the reassembling, took the ground that if the declaration ot -the Bast THE -PITTSBURG DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY.' DECEMBER End organization had even discussed the ob iectlonable matters privately It would have been wronc. Tho ground taken was against the law of the church and synodfeal decisions for 100 years, and the least tho accused could do was to confess thtfr error. Prof. Wilson put pn moro paint and referred to a magazino puDlication. Hn wanted de fendants to kocp cut of the discussion, but finally he and tho Moderator agreed that both sides wero "a little out ot order." There were some noes on tlin vote to substitute the word "disavow," Dr. R. 4. George contending that they should' he required to publicly declare their withdrawal from tho East End organiza tion. Dr.H.II.George thought a man who could not agree wtth such harmonious proceeding bad souiethiug inconsistent fn bis makeup. Ho al luded to the ridicule of the church by the pub lic prints, and wanted to have all Covenanters give testimony in more lined nivoca! language, but tho Moderator held that It was but a ques tion of phraseology. EYERYTHIXG DEBATED AT LENGTH. The charge that the accused should not pro pagate the ohjectionablo views complained of wbllo ministers in tho service of the R. P. Church was, like all other propositions, de bated at length. Rev. V. J. Coleman thought the whole busi ness an attempt to reconcilo tho irreconcilable. Ho held that a man'3 convictions could not bo controlled, nnd to pleuge him not to talk was merely to gag or nuzzle him. and silence In tho pulpit on the subject meant the final end of the Covenanter Church. A man cannot preach what he does not believe. Prof. Wilson insisted that it the accused were to keep their standing in the church tbev must carry out its instructions. He would not have so much ink sheddingand the constituted church authorities must he obeyed. Rev. Mr. Crosier thought the younsmen sound at tho enre. expressed bono that a compromise would bo reached, but Prof. Wil son, Laymen Joseph Wallace and Morton were after blood, the latter especiallv. and he would hear of no compromise. Finally the paper as a whole was adopted, though some of its sections had tailed, the Presbytery preferring an alo pathic dose, and the members under fire being refused a vote. It allowed no loophole ot es cape. The Presbytery was interrupted by a petition from the Rev. O. B. Milligan's congregation, asking that proceedings bo dropped, becauso thoy believed that such action would promoto the honor and glory of God, and because he had done rood work and they did not believe tho charecs against him. There w ero 75 names attached to tho petition. Some ono moved to return the petition to where it came. Prof. Wilson mnTed to amend by receiving and filing, as he said it would amount to the same thing. He seemed to think the last the least offensive course. The Moderator held to tho sanctity of the right to petition. HEARING THE COMMISSIONERS. Rev. Mr. Gilpatrick moved that the commis sioners of the congregation be heard, and after opposition by Rev. II. II. George and others the motion prevailed, and Messrs. T. C. John ston, J. A. Douthett, T. A. Rogers, Mr. Ewing, Joseph Adams and W. J. liarnett were heard. After speeches against receiving the petition by Messrs. R. J. George, Wilson. D. O. Brown, Sproul the petition was rejected. Prof. Wilson next suggested that those who bad given oral consent to the East Liberty platform should bo asked to orally retract, and thoso who signed it should retract under signa ture. Rev. Mr. Crozier. after the terms of capitula tion had been read again, said his conscience forced him to offer an amendment to them ad ding, "Wo sincerely regret our connection with it" Dr. R. J. George opposed, but the amend ment prevailed. U to 6. Tho Moderator then called up the accused one by one and each stated that he did not sign the platform, and each also stated that he did not accept the proposed recantation, but pre ferred to go on trial. TboMofcrator then stated that, inasmuch as the nbcl had been sustained and that a heinous sin and scandal had been sustained (references quoted), be went on to put the regular interrogatories. Rov. Mr. Temple stated that ho was not conscious of wrong doing and preferred to be put on trial. Rev. Mr. Samson said he was not guilty on tho main charge. Rev. Mr. Reed ad mitted tho facts, but denied their sufficiency, and the answers of the Messrs. Milligan were of the same tenor but In all there was more than the firmness of Galileo. ARGUMENTS FOR THE PROSECUTION. Tlie Moderator stated that tho charges had been sustained, relevant, divisivo and others, technicalities connected and abont 5 o'clock Rev. Mr. Gilpatrick opened his argument for the prosecution and was followed by Prof. Wilson, tho two occupied, with the exception of and hour and a half for refreshments, tho time until after 9 o'clock, when the latter con cluded and the prosecution rested. Tho defouse will begin at 9 o'clock ,tlns morn-, ing, and as it Is expected that each of tho de fendants will mako an argument, nh'd as each is fluent and loaded to the muzzle1, it is. ex pected that the trial will tako up all ot to-day, possibly more. It should bo said, in justice to the ministers on trial, that the report of Rev. E. M. Milligan bcintr applauded by bis fellow defendants when ho flung his defl in the face of the Presbytery, existed only iu some persons' Imagination, as the trial, from morning to night, was marked with universal conrtesy, and had nothing of the back alley style of warfare about it, thouih each side has strong backing so strong that Pror. Wilson said it was a repetition of 1833. There was'a grim-Scotch-Irlsh-stick-till-you-ule sort of expression running all through the pro ceedings, but nothing turbulent. TEMPERANCE DISCUSSED At Hie Qnnrtcrly Meeting of the Allegheny Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church Several Resolutions Rejected and Others Adopted Routine Business. The Temperance Committee furnished the leading theme for discussion at the quarterly meeting of the Allegheny Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church, held at the Central Church. Allegheny. Rev. J. B. Turney, Chairman, presented the report of that com mittee. It was very lengthy and contained the history of the evils produced by the use of alcohol; ot the attempt made to scenre prohibi tion, and ot the d liferent, license laws which had been enacted in this State: and contained also a number of resolutions. It was upon the adoption of the latter that the discussion arose. Three of the resolutions were rpjected. Ono resolution, which was rejected, declared the belief of the Presbytery in total abstinence, and that voluntary absunence from all intoxi cants is the true ground of personal temper ance. A resolution that called for considerable dis cussion was one declaring the Presbytery op posed to tho license principle, hhrh or low."as it merely makes final prohibition very difficult and connects the Govirnmeiit with tho busi ness. Rev. John F6x opposed it on the ground that traffic in liquor is not nlwajssin in tho wido sense of the word, and that such is not tho dortrine of the Presbyterian Church. Rev. J. T. Gibson argued on the 6auie line. Rev. Dr. Riddle moved the rejection of the resolution, and declared that if it passed he wanted to bo put on record as opposed to it. Mr. Turney defended tho resolution, but the votn resulted in Its rejection. Rev. John Fox then offered a resolution, which was adopted, rcadinc as follows: "That wo earnestly recommend our church members to use all proncr means, both by law and other wats, to prevent drunkenness and punish law breakers. Rut we distinctly de clare, as a spiritual court of Jesus Christ, not to decide on the merits ur demerits of different policies of civil legislation for tho accomplish ment of 1 lie temperanco reform." Tho ladles of Central Church served a de licious lunch and supper to tho members of tho Presbytery, the young ladies of the Sunday school waiting on the tables. BEY. J. M. HJLT0K EESIGN3 From tho Pastorato of the Fourth TT. P. Church of Allegheny. Tho report of the Committee on Conference Homo Missions at tho meeting of tho Alle gheny Presbytery of tho U. P. Chnrcb, yester day, caused considerable discussion and nearly caused a rupture between the city and countrv ministers. However, cooler heads prevailed and war was averted. The remainder of the session was mainly taken np with usual routine business ana interesting discussions. The resignation of Rev. J. M. Fulton, of the Fourth Church, was accepted and the pulpit will bo formally declared vacant.

THE MEN TALK VEEY DIFFERENTLY And Say Something Will Drop When Their Officers Arrive. A FEW GMEYANCE3 AT WILMEEDISG It is beginning to look as though the Baltimore and Ohio strike was about broken. At least.it does not seem as lavorable for the men as it did two days ago, and although they stick to their original statements that the yards are blocked loll of freight, the company moved more cars yesterday than on all of the previous days since the strike began. More men arrived yesterday from other points, and three crews were constantly em ployed in the yards getting trains made up nnd started ont. Three engines were bnsy nn the Junction Road, and this is within one of the full force. Six trains of coke were brought from Connellsville, nnd freight was moved over the "Wheelinz division the greater part of the day. The strikers are mad. Two meetings were held yesterday and one last night. They are beginning to be more quiet about their proceedings, but one of them said last night: "Wo cannot do much at present. We feel that our chances for reinstatement are good, but the matter must take its course. OFFICIALS OX TIIE WAT. "Yon can say that the officials of the Switchmen's Aid Association will be here not later than Thursday, and Mr. Downey may be here to-morrow. Quite a number of the boys do not caro much whether we are reinstated or not if tho matter Is arranged so that we will not go away under the stigma of a discharge. We were not discharged. Every one of us quit voluntarily, but that man Deit rich told Superinteadcnt Holbook that he had discharged us. "That statement that we bad participated in a not and injured a man was a base lie. A moro orderly set of men conld not be found in the city. We can win the present struggle witbont creating a not. Tho company needs have no fear of us destroying any of its prop erty or injuring anv of the men." "How soon will the men make a move!" was asked. "Our people will not do anything until our officers arrtve, which will not be for a day or two." "Will vou make no demand of the company's offl-ials?" "We have already made all the demand we can make. We have asked for our reinstate ment, and that is ail that is involved now, un less Dcitrich comes back again." TIIE TRAI,- DISrATClIEU'S VIEWS. Train Dispatcher Day, however, said last night: "The men have made no demand what ever; on the contrary, they quit work, got their pay. aud have never even asked for a confer ence, consequently there cannot possibly bo any grounds for complaint. We are getting along very nicely now, and as soon as the new men wo have on hand become well enough ac quainted with the yards to work at night we will De in as good shape as we were before the difficulty." Everything was quiet around tho yards last night. Tho new men were occupying a day coach and a kitchen car, which have been lo cated in the Glenwood yards for their safety and convenience. The company is taking every precaution acainst any probable trouble between the new men and the strikers. Albert Powell, ono of the switchmen the company brought from Martiusbnrg. was taken sick yesterday with pneumonia : ho was sent homo "on the 920 train last night, bis brother accompanying him. One ot tho npw switchmen made a very narrow escape from bcins killed yesterday afternoon. He was coupling a caboose to an engine when in some way ho slipped, falling along sido of the engine and the wheels iased over his right hand, crushing it. Railroad Physician Davis dressed his band. Robert Taylor, who was assanlted by a num ber of men at Glenwood yesterday morning, was resting easily at the Mercy Hospital lato last nighr. Yardmaster E. C.Martin, of tho Connellsville yard, will tako the place of Day Yardmaster Dt-itrich, who is reported confined to bis homo with heart disease. HOT EXACTLY SATISFIED. Air Brake Works Employes Kicking Against a Change of Time. The employes of tho Wcstinghouse Air Brake Company at Wilmerding. who live In the city, are in a state of indignation. Previous to the first of tho present month, the men were al lowed free transportion to and from their work, but now the free tickets are denied tbem. In addition, the hours for commencing and quitting work havo been changed, so that the men are obliged to come in on a train that ar rives in the city at 7 o'clock or later, and some do not get home until nearly 8 o'clock. Ono of the employes who lives in Manchester, was seen last niglit. no said: "I cannot understand this move. The company gave the men to understand, when we went out thcro to work, that railroad fare would not cost us anything, and that special trains would bo run for onr convenience, en abling us to cet home nearly as soon as if no worked in Allezheny. It looks to 1110 very much as though the company wanted us to get disgusted with city life and buy lots at Wil merding." Superintendent Welsh, who has charge of the works, was spoken to and said: "It is absurd for the employes to talk like that. Tne com pany does not own a lot at Wilmerding. nnd thcief ore could not have any for sale. This change in the time was made, but it was mado for tho convenience and not for the discomfort of the men. When they went to work at 7 o'clock in the morning, many of thein were lite, owing to their train not arriving in time. It was duo at 7 o'clock, but often did not get get there at that time, and when the men were late live minutes they lose an hour. Wo try to do everything possible for the comfort of the men, and I cannot see where thcro should bo any complaint." VALUABLE EAHD-B00K. Tlio Builders' Exchango Provided With Interesting Information.

The Pretty Little Chapel of the Transfigur ation Dedicated Last Night Tho Eplsco pals First Mission in tho Bcltzhoover District Meaning of the Name. The pretty little Chapel of the Transfigur ation in Beltzlioover was dedicated last eyening. The ltight Eev. Bishop "White head had charge of the services. He was assisted by Rev. W. O. Lamson, Evangelist Chas. Shoemaker and a number of the laity of Trinity Church and the llrotherhood of St. Andrew. Tho chapel was furnished complete, even to the carpets in tho chancel and aisles. Bishop Whitehead was greatly pleased with its archi tecture, cozy appearance and general appoint ments. The dedicatory service differed little from that always followed. Rev. Mr. Lamson gave the first address. He said that he bad suggested tbe name "Chapel of the Transfiguration" an very appropriate, both as to position ana tho purpose for which it was erected. It is situated on a mount and is expected to reflect the glory of Christ. Bishop Whitehead elaborated on Mr. Lamson's remarks. He said that tho name was most happily chosen. In the first place it means that its disciples practice tbe gospel of the transfiguration. The influence of the little chapel will cause the people to see the glory of the Master, and the workers will be reflectors to assist the people in seeing the trno light. Tho little church was spoken of as a little seed planted by the Brotherhood of St. An drew that would grow and In time become a tree that will shelter the whole mount. Bishop Whitehead gave some good advice to those present regarding tho future of tbe branch of Trinity Church. The chapel's history was given in TiieDis TATcn some time ago. The interior is fur nished in light hard woods with a white ceiling of sextangular shape. The chancel is a semi dome, painted blue with gold stars. Dillon and O'Brien Not to be Here. Rev. Father Sheedy received a telegram from Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien yesterday stating that on account of the Parnell trouble it would be .impossible for them to come to Pittsburg as their presence is demanded in Ireland. AUCTION.
