SOUfiED ON SWEENEY.
Local Switchmen Score Their Grand
ilaster for Ignoring Them.
A TlE-TJr IS THREATENED TC-DAY.
Conference of TCire Hen Brought to a Sat
isfactory Close.
SEW OIL TAKES FOE UDTLEE COUNTY
There is every indication .that the railroad
switchmen's difficulty is far from being;
settled yet.
It will be remembered that when their de
mands vrere presented two weeks ago the
new scale, providing for eight-hour work
days and various other things, was to take
effect Januaiy 1. The time has expired,
and, althongh the men claim to have pur
sued the constitutional course, they haveTe
ceived no satisiactory reply from either the
railway companies or their own officials.
The matter has rested quietly, apparently,
until last night, when it broke out afresh,
and trouble of some sort is expected to-day.
There was a meeting of the local Grievance
Committee last night, attended by three
men from each road centcrin; in the city.
The situation was discussed until nearly
midnight, and it was with the greatest diffi
culty that the committee prevented the rad
ical members from precipitating a tie-up.
TIIKY TTAST SWEESET II EKE.
The men are considerably put out that
their Grand Master, Sweeney, is not here.
A. G. Carruthers, chairman of the General
Grievance Committee, was seen after the
meeting, and said: ''There is no excuse for
Mr. Sweeney's absence to-night. He slionld
have been here to decide this matter one way
or another. If wo were in the rung we should
know ii. But Mr. Sweeney has simply and
absolutely ignored ns alter we have followed
the law to the letter and laid our matter
Vefoie him. I am opposed to the men taking
th miner in their own hands, and have had
to tight hard against it all along, but it looks
very ninch as though they will not have much
reiaid for ilie law nou. and if a strike does
occur I want the public to understand that
Mr. Seeuev, and he alone, will be responsi
ble." Hcnrv lynon. another member of the com
mittee, saiu: "I tell you, if Mr. owcency had
beard all that was said of him at the meeting
to-night, his ears would have horned, lis has
treated our men shamefully. Wo sent him a
copy of our grievances, the receipt of which he
neer acknowledged. I wrote to him, asking
him if he wonld cninc here to settle tbo diffi
culty, and he ignored my letter. To-day we
teiegrapbed, bat got no reply.
AFRAID OF A STKUaE.
This action on Mr. Sweeney's part, of course,
has set tha men on edge, and it is bard to say
whatthe outcome v. ill be. Noneof those who
have been prominent in the anair from the start
want to see a strike, but the inajorityof the
others do, and it will not bo surprising to sec
them drop the law and take up the fight as a
matter of principle. The Grand Master has
Vlaced ns in the position of downright fools. We
presented a scale to take etfect to-morrow, but
Ihe demands have not been granted. Accord
lug to the constitution, he should bava been
liere to settle the difficulty one way or an.
other. If wo work after making the demands
the people will laugh at us and if we refuse to
work we render ourselves liable to expulsion
from our association."
These later developments were hardly ex
pected. The Baltimore and Ohio difficulty still
lemaius unsettled, but the coinnauy had en
tirely ocrco-.nc tile effects of it aiid the only
inconvenience they were experiencing was
neca-ioued by the heavy snow, by which
all the roads were deled to smn- exteui.
In case the men arc determined to
take the matter in their own hands as inti
mated bv tn men. n. 'thing could prevent a
Mrike but the appcaiance of Mr. Sweeney.
The men spoken ti were extremely cautious
not to say anything that would implicate them
as promoters of a strike, but they seemed
afraid that the teclmg in favor of a lie-up was
becoming dangerously apparent. If a move is
made at all it will be done to-day.
AlfOTHEK SEC2ET SESSION.
Wire Maiitif.icturens Complete the Wort
for Which They Met.
The confeieuce of wire and wire nail manu
facturers was concluded vesterdayat the offices
of the Braddock Wire Company. The meeting
lasted the greater portion of the day, and when
an adjournment was reached the manufact
urers present would say nothing of what bad
been done.
President Gregg had been appointed as a
committee of one to sec the press renreseuta
tives. lie performed his duty admirably, so
far as seeing them was concerned, hut he gave
ll'Cin no news. He reaffirmed tbo statement
inane ike day pievious that the manufacturers
had not co-ue together for the purpose of form
ingr trust. "V hen we are ready to make
statement we will do so," said he: "but until
that lime nothing can be said that will be of in
terest t the public In fact, we did not do any
thing in which the public is interested."
During iho progress of yesterday's meeting a
resolution ot respect was passed on the death of
the late George Douglass, of New York, form
erly connected with the Oliver Barb Wire
Company. The majority of the delegates left
lor home last evening.
TIKE WEATHER TJJ THE WEST.
Merchants and Coalmen Londed Willi
Mocks They Can't tell.
-Whew, what beastly weather you have in
the Ea-.t," said a Western businessman to a
tcportcr jesterday, as he shook the water off
1.1s b.g fur coat and emptied his rubbers, which
bad rilled with slush from the streets.
"We have had no snow in the West," he con
tinued, "and the sun has been shining
;is on summer days. The country mails
are dry, and we woudrr how
long oner good luck will continue. Usually the
condiiions are reversed, aud the West is the
one that sutlers the most from the cold and
snow.
-Many of the Western business men find
themselves in tight places as the result of the
agreeable weather. Thev had laid in heavy
stocks in anticipation of a hard winter, which
has failed to materialize. The coal men in par
ticular are badly pinched, and even if it should
turn cold now it would not help them very
much. Unie's the wcatuercuarjjres in tbe next
CO days, I will look for a number of small fail
ures in Western towns."
-OOK'I LIKE THE ADVanCS.
Transcontinental Rates Koep Golnj-Up a
Peg Now and Then.
The advance in transcontinental rates docs
not put shippers into an agreeable frame of
mind. The new- iron rates will be 1 Co. The
rJrac was when a keg of nails conld hs shipned
to San Francisco for 65 cents per 100 pounds,
hut the rate is almost doubled now. The
agents say that Western rates have been too
low Tor profit, ana afier kicking for awhile
shippers will forget all about the increase ot 10
ler cent.
Local agents do ugt think that the advance
will increase the -uipments to the coast by way
of Cape Horn. The rates to San Francisco arc
lower than to many intermediate points. Thu
Western lines insist that as tbey have to con
tend with water competition that thev hare a
tight to violate the inter-State law.
THE OUTPUT OF A YEAR,
Pig Iron Frodnction Runs Over Ten Million
Net Tons for the Year.
The estimated total production of pig iron
for 1S90. according to the Amiiean Manufact
urer, is 9.091,1179 tons, or 10.lS3.01f net tons.
This is 1,600.937 net tons greater than in lbS9,
"which was the year of largest production prior
to 1800.
The production for the first six months was
tfcNi,!ija gross tons, and for the last six months
if the year. 4,511306 tons. The production for
the last six months is 13D.C95 tons less than dur
ing tue first half of the year. Low prices and
siocksat consumers caused the falling off.
The Miners' Difficulty.
The miners' difficulty is causing considerable
trouble at Wheeling. The men have asked the
mill workers who are members of the Amalga
mated Association, not to use coal brought to
the mill from non-union mines. Some of the
men are willing to do this while others are not.
Will Begin In the Spring.
The building of the plate mill to be erected
by W. J. Hammond t Sons at Manstleld will bo
begun in the spring. It is reported that if Con
gressional action is such that will further en
courage the making of tinplate, the Arm will
embark in that industry.
0PEHATI0KS RESUMED AGAE7.
litigation Over tho ProBts or an Oil Tank
Shop iu Butler County.
William I. Jackson, the oil tank manufact
urer of Pleasantville, who recently had soino
difficulty with his former partner, S. H. Wal
lace, has had matters arranged so as to permit
him to resume business, and on Monday opera
tions were begun again at tho shops at Sample
station, on the Pittsburg and Western road
The stock of the old llrm was disposed of on
Monoaybythe Fidelity Title and Trust Com
pany, which had been appointed as receiver,
aud the works will now bu run on a larger and
more extensive cale than ever.
Mr. Jackson was seen yesterday and said tbe
outlook for his class of goods was never better.
New oil territory is being developed constantly
and tho demand'for 2j0-barrcl tanks is increas
ing rapidly. Prices have declined fronrSHO to
to S100 for this sized tank. He will supply tho
greater portion ot the demand lor the Butler
county field in the future.
There is a legal proceeding pending in which
Mr. Jackson is the defendant, but in which bo
expects to vindicate himself wiihout nincli dif
ficulty His former partner, Mr. Wallace,
brings tbe action, claiming that Jackson had
not accounted fr over $.5.000, "and alleging that
he had applied $3.SS0 to his own purpose. Jack
son tiled his answer in the case yesterday, in
which he claims the partnership had been dis
solved before he collected tho money referred
to. and thatby an agreement at the time of "set
tlement all outstanding money of the Arm was
to belong to him. Messrs Hunter, Ivory &
Beatty have charge of his case.
Mr. Jackson says Wallace was anxious
enongh for the dissolution to take place until
he discovered the business was a paying one,
and then he wanted to share the profits.
HONORING THE DEAD.
Pennsylvania Kailroad Men Remember
Their Late Superintendent.
Tbe employes of tho varions departments ot
the Altoona division of the Pennsylvania Knll
roidbcld a meeting last night at tbe Twelfth
street office, and passed an appropriate resolu
tion on the death of their late esteemed Super
intendent, L. K. Lodge.
Mr. Lodge bad onlybee'n in charge of the
division for a short tune, hut had won tbe high
est honor and respect of every man on the
division, and his sudden death was a matter of
regret to all.
The Scale- Has Expired.
The three years' scale at the Edgar Thomson
Steel Woiks at Braddock expired yesterday,
but no change is expected. No difficulty is an
ticipated, either. On the contrary, it is ex
pected that the mill will resume operation
Monday.
Industrial Notes.
The river miners have decided to demand an
advance oT cent per bushel for mining coal
for the Fituburg market.
It now seems as though the furnacemen
mean business in their move for lower railroad
rates and will bank up unless the reduction is
made.
Tue blast furnacemen employed at the Brad
dock plant of Carnegie Bros. & Co. will pre
sent a scale to-day or to-morrow, asking for an
advance in wages.
Since the convention in June, there have
been Si lodges ot the Amalgamated Association
organized, increasing the membership over
5.003 aud making tbe total foot up over 13,000.
-Captaix A. J. Beau, of tbe United States
Custom House, was sresented yesterday with a
handsome gold watch charm by tbe attaches
of the office. R. D. Laytun made the presenta
tion speech.
The inolders and other employes of tbe
Marshall Foundry and Construction Company,
Twenty-eight street, presented their foreman,
hteve Hall, last evening with a handsome
gold-headed cane.
President Gates, of the Braddock Wire
Company, said yesterday that the plant was
closed down temporarily on account of a break,
hnt he knew nothing of a strike. Tbe supposed
difficulty is said to have originated over the dis
charge of two men without cause.
WEIE 'WILL FINISH HIS TEEM.
He Will Servo as Foreman of the Grand
Jury Without Pay.
James G. Wier, the foreman of tho grand
jury, who will enter on his datfes as Connty
Commissioner on Monday went before Judge
Stowe yesterday and desired to kno- if he
could still serve in his present position. Ho
said he hoped the work of foreman of the
grand jury was not incompatible with his
duties as a County Commissioner, but if the
Court twould allow it and there was no Jllcf al
ny in it he wonld prefer to retain his foreman
ship until the work of tbe grand jury
was completed. For this work he would ask
for no compensation, rather would he do it
without the usual fee.
Judge Stowe first said the two positions
would not conflict in a legal way and that the
proposition was a most acceptable one. He
complimented Mr. Wier on the work done by
the grand jury and said he was desirons that
Mr. Wier would still continue in his present
capacity as foreman. Mr. Wier will therefore
do so.

TOO MANY MONUMENTS
Judge Oyer Decides That Mrs. Jones'
Grave Shall Be Well Marked.
W0KK 0E THK ORPHANS! COURT.
Theresa Teets Wants lo Be Paid for a Tear
Spent in Jail.
ALIi THn KEWS OP TUE C0DNTT COURTS
Judge Over, of the Orphans' Cojtrt, yes
terday handed down an opinion, in the
matter of the exceptions to the account of
the executor of the late Catharine Jones?.
As a result of the decision the grave" of
Mrs. Joucs will be adorned with two monu
ments. The children of the deceased purchased a
monument which was erected while the
executor, acting under directions in tho
will, also obtained one, which he had
erected at the other end of the grave. The
heirs of the estate .then objected to the
executor receiving credit for the amount he'
paid for the monument, claiming that a
second monument was unnecessary.
Judge Over, in hisopionion, said; "Unless
authorized by tbe will it is no part of the.
duty of an executor to erect a monument at
the grave of his decedent. In this case,
however, the testatrix directed that a tomb
stone should he erected before the residueof
her estate should be distributed, and this
duty necessarily devolved upon the account
aut as administrator It is very unfortunate
that some of the children also contracted for
one aud had it erected without notice to
him.
THE ADMINISTRATOR WINS.
"They had no authority to make a contract
for him and could not bind the estate by
their contract. If it was their intention to
relieve tbe estate and erect the monument at
their own expense, they should have notified
tho accountant before ho made his contract.
He has clearly not been in default and is en
titled to the credit claimed tor the ono erected
by him."
A statement of the work in tho Orphans'
Court for the past year was completed yester
day by tho Clerk. The Orphans' Court, whilo
very modest in lts-manuer of doing business,
accomplished with its two judges a very large
amount of business during the year. Tho
work of thU court is connected entirely with
the estates of tbe dead, and in tho most trivial
case the interest of the minors and widows are
carefully guarded and protected by the court.
In proceedings for sales of real estate the
Court requires in every case evidence that the
price obtained is the full value of the property
sought to be sold, an.: in appointments of
guardians tbe Court requires satisiactory evi
dence of tho character of tbe person before
making appointments.
SCBUTINIZING THE ACCOUNTS.
Their accounts are carefully scrutinized and
any attemp, to defraud or wrong the helpless
is speedily remedied. In the auditing ot the
accounts a large amount of work is required of
tbo Judges outside of court. Both Judges
Hawkins and Over are constantly engaged be
tween sessions of court examining such cases
as require their attention.
The following is the statemon'. of tho work
Cerformcd during the year past nding Decerned!-.

sned f orirange from $2 to $2,00i
It uas stated that the defendants joined in a
petition to Councils to have the street repaved,
agreeing to pay one-half the cost. Tbe contract
was let tothelonest bidder and the work was
well done, no complaint being made. Tho city
caved the street with asphaltum, tbe Duquesne
Traction Company paving between its rails
with block stone, a more costly pavement. Tho
entire cost of the asphaltnavement was 61.181.
It "as assessed on K.G6S 9-100 Icet of property,
at 2 SO per foot front. In addition to one-halt
the cost. $30239, tho city charged itself with

property who did not sign tbeagreempiitor
petition for the paving and are not liable under
the law.
The property owners have all filed appeals
from the assessments mado by the Board of
'Viewers, claiming that they aro not liable for
tho cost ot tbo paving.
