SE BASK WAS JUST ONE DAI LATE l Sending in Us Bid for the Use of tbe County's Burplns Cash. ESTEKDAY IS ALIiEGHEXI'S COUETS The argument in tbe mandamus asked by lcxaoder Gilfillan against Controller rier to restrain him from giving, to the entral Bank the funds of the county for ;posit, was heard by Judges Single and oilier yesterday. This case grows ont of le published advertisements for banks to :t as depositories for the conntr funds. A intake nas made in the advertisement of the rahnt F,-eviia raakinc the last day for the ccption ot bids the Uth of January instead the 13th as legalized. The Union Bank putjm bid on the 14th, but tbe bid was refused. John Iirjatit appeared for Mr. Gilfillan and ted that a preliminary injunction be granted tbe case. Mr. Hnant argued that the act of ssembly of March 2, 1872, made it tlie dutv of ic Controller to notify all solvent banks, inking hou-.es and exchange brokers in the ty of 1'ittsburg. The notices were published, it were contradictory and misleading, and br ason of this but one bid i as received. On e 11th or January the Union Hank submitted bid which was refused by the Controller, bese proceedings were not for the Union ationai Bank and it was not argued that they lould be cnosen as tbo depository, but tbe ablic should be riven a fair show and each ink an equal chance.

H. lute appeared for tbe Central Bank id argued that publication bad been made all the official papers, lie denied tnat they ere contradictory except in the German tper, which was its own mistake and not that f the Controller. The Central Bank bad de vered its bid on tbe day specified, and it was le onlr bid submitted and they would insist on i"ir rights. James Fitzsimmons and R. S. Frazier ap eared for Controller Grier and Treasurer ell. They argued that the mistake in the erman paper was not a mistake by the Con oiler or Treasurer, but by the paper itself, od tbej could not be held responsible for it; at tbe Controller and Treasurer had no -iwerto reject the bid of tbe Central Bank itbont submitting tbe county to considerable ss. Tbe bid of tbe Central Bank was the ighet rate of interest paid in the county, he court took the papers. NOW WITH THE JURY. Tie Hraddock Rioters' Trial for Murder Comes to a Close Testimony Adduced on the Last Day The Arguments and the Judge's Charge. The trial of George Rusnok, Andy Todt nd Michael Sabol, charged with the mur- er of Michael Quinn at the riot January 1 i tbe Edgar Thomson Steel "Works, Brad- ock, was concluded yesterday before Judge towein Criminal Court. It reached the jury i the afternoon and court reconvened in the veuing. waiting an hour for a verdict, but as one was returned another adjournment was ad till to-day. George Rusnok, one of the defendants, was he tirst witness called in the morning. He de led having participated in the not: denied avmgbeenat the works on New Year's Day, nd denied of knowing many of the witnesses rho claimed to know him. Michael Sabol and Todt were placed on the tand. They admitted that tbey bad been at he works during the riot and were compelled o join in the outbreak by tbe leaders. Both emed having taken part in the assault ou luinn. In tbe afternoon Colonel Blakcley, in bis ad rcsstotbe jury in behalf of the defense, poke for over an hour, claiming an alibi had een clearly proven for Rusnok, and that tho wo other defendants had taken no active part a the not. He appealed to tbe jury in behalf f the defendants on account of the prejudice gaint the foreigners, and of their almost ractical helplessness in showing their own ide properly by reason of their inability to peak the English language. District Attorney Johnston made his address rom the evidence submitted. He read over bo evidence and said no alibi was proven in lie case of Rusnok, that be was active in the 'Sainton Quinn as were the two others. He sked for a verdict of murder in the first de Tee, as concerned the three defendants. Judge Stowe then delivered the charge to the nry. Considerable interest was evinced by he reading of the charge, as three men were n trial for their lives, being held responsible or tbe death of one man in a riot, participated ii by a hundred or more. After defining the aw relative to the degrees or murder tbe udge said: "If the jury are satisfied that the lefendants or any one of them were engaged n the riot that occurred January 1, ISM. at tbe Cdgar Thomson Steel Works, actively partici pating in It, with the purpose and intent to Inve ont by violence and physical force uch workmen as might rclcse to accede to heir demands, or resist their attempt to drive he workmen away from their work, and if ou also believe that Michael Quinn was killed y the violence of the delendants, either eparately or conjointly that is, by blows rom clubs or sticks or instruments of any kind ised upou tbe body of the deceased by all of he defendants, whether they were together r in different places, and tbe blows ere struck at different places and lines during the continuanco of tbe riot, and bis violence was committed in pursuance of a ommen purpose of tbe rioters to drive tbe de eased and others froai their work, then they .re all equally guilty under the law of murder n the second degree."

Judge Fettennan Indorses the Methods of ills Pet Owls Feedinc on Fat Chippies "One Mistake the Legislature Made "What It Cot. Though most people have despaired of ever getting rid of the English-sparrow pest, Judge Fetterman has discovered a possible way to diminish the plague if sot wholly destroy the prolific nuisance. Last summer the sparrows were so thick on tbe Judge's farm as to threaten to take possession. Their favorite lodging place was in some evergreens. In the latter part of November a colony of screech owls located on the premises, and In a short time the Judge noted a great commotion every night among tbe thousands of swallows In tbe evergreens. He found tha. the owls were waging a war of ex termination on the sparrows, or rather one for sustentation. Night after night the depreda tion was repeated, until at present but a few dozen sparrows are left, while tbe owls are in splendid condition and almost as tame as chickens. Judge Fetterman holds them in snch higb estimation that he bad almost as lief have one of his horses shot as an owl. He says be does not grudge them a chicken occasion ally so long as they continue to decimate the sparrows. Since tbe latter are becoming scarce the scrcechers are turning their attention to the field mice, among which the good work of extermination is going on bravely. Some years ago the Pennsylvania Legislature pas-ed a law giving premiums for owl and bawk scalps, and thereby tickled both poultry raisers and sportsmen. But the Legislature scarcely ever made a greater mistake, and after the State had lost many millions of dollars by the ravages of vermin the law was repealed. Tbe digestion of birds is so rapid that It re quires about all their spare time to supply tlu larder, and as the food of hawks and owls s mainly field mince, rats, eta. destructive to tbe farmer, tbe number consumed is incalculable. Soakes also live mainly on this kind of ver min, and under either a mistaken notion that it is a duty to kill them, or an inex tinguishable hatred to tbe ophidian, millions or snakes not only harmless to man, but extremely useful to him. are annually slaughtered. Field mice are increasing extraordinarily, as every farmer can testify, and if once the Insec tivorous birds, birds of prey and snakes are ex terminated, there will be famine in this country. Snakes being cold-blooded do not eat so much as birds, but tho amount of saving they annually represent in the shape of cereals would more than pay Interest on our national debt. BETTEB E0ADS 0B SIDEWALKS. Farmers Insist Upon Some TVay of Coming to tho City. If the Legislature fail to make a road law this winter that will give some sort of satisfaction there is likely to be a cry go np that road taxes be diverted to tbe making of sidewalks on tbe roads within half a dozen miles of the city. Oil producers manage to get over or through the roads in some kind of shape at all seasons, but farmers for more than half tho year cannot haul produce to the city, and In all the terri tory between the P. i L. E. and P., C St. L. railways, it is oangeronB at present to attempt navigation In a buggy. Even the Stenbenvilie pike, west of Chartiers creek, is fast becoming untordatile. Somo time ago it was nnted that tbe race of farmers is vanishing and their places are largely taken by mechanics who do not use teams, but are required to pay road taxes, and they are getting restive. They say the tax is virtually thrown away, as sun and wind make better roads than does the average supervisor, and they contend that more benefit would ac crue to the people at large if the road tax were invested in tbe making of sidewalks. Some think tnrnpike companies might be to the ad vantage of tho people at large; so that people who use teams might pay for road repairs and let the road tax now'levied bo expended in building walks, from tho use of which all tax payers would get somo benefit. Bicycle manufacturers might be induced to bear a part of tho expense of making walks, as they would be conducive to the sale of cycles. In Jail at WUllainsport. Edwin Mattern, Otto Lohide and James Morris, three East End boys, whose ages range from 17 to 20 years, are In jail at WUUamsport as suspicious characters.

IT WILIj SEEIODSLY CK0WD COUNCILS The Board of Assessors yesterday decided not to transfer any property on the assess ment books where the deed of sale is atcr than Febrnary 1, and at no time will it make any transfers on articles of agreement whereby property is sold on the installment plan and the deed is not delivered ntutil'the entire purchase money is paid. The taxes on any property sold within the present year will, therefore, have to be paid by the person whose name appears as the owner in the present assessment list. This action is the result of tbe tighter lines that arc being drawn on the Board of Assessors, and the authority for the action is taken from the Bruce ordinance passed in 1870, which prohibited transfers,although it was never enforced. Besides this, no alterations are to be made in the assessment books after they have gone into the hands of the Treasurer. This matter was decided by Controller Morrow some time ago, and on January 20 he sent the following letter to the Board of Asses sors: Communication From tho Controller. 'To the Board of Assessors: "Gentlemen Your attention is invited to tho acts of Assembly and the ordinances re lating to assessments and alterations therein. After the levy is extended upon tbe duplicate and reportod to the treasurer for collection, neither your board nor tbe treasurer have any authority to make any abatement in the amount or tax so extended, except as specially provided by law, "Hereafter I will not receive any report from you of any deduction from the tax levy after it has gono to the treasurer. "Yours respectfully. "K. S. Morrow. Controller." "We are perfectly satisfied," said Assessor Frank P. Case last nigbr "not to have to chance tbe books after titty are sent to the Treasurer for collection. Tinder this order the books cannot be changed, but the question that arises with us is how are we going to effect proper and necessary exonerations. It is this way. On new buildings we make a high assess meat with a view to having the owner come in and make an affidavit to tho real value. Notice, of the assessment Is sent to the new building and in many cases the notices are not received and the only intimation a man has of the amount of his assessment is when ho is called on to pay taxes. The only redress he would have would be to take the matter into Councils, which would overcrowd that body with an unusually heavy amount of work, and probably shut out legislation which the city badly needs. An Alternative That Could Happen. "On tbe other hand, the owner could let the matter rest until tbe taxes go into the bands of the Delinquent Tax Collector, and then the Board ot Assessors conld issue an exoneration, but still the man would be burdened with tbe 5 per cent increase which goes to the delinquent tax office. "Before this we have been in the habit of is suing vouchers for tbe exonerations, which were handed to tbe Treasurer so that any changes made in tbe assessment were fully ex plained. Under this rule we can still issue vouchers, but tbe Treasurer is not in any may bound to respect them, but is bound as much by Mr. Morrow's order as we are. "Under tbe old rule we kept a clerk in the Treasurer's office all the time tor tbe purpose of making these chances. Now there will be no further use for him. Tho only thing we can do is to paste the constable's order on tbe wall and simply point to it when anydoo asks tor an abatement.'' NOT ACTING AS THIEVES, Judge Single Indulges in Some Peppery Talk Abont the Supreme Coart Tbe City Gains a Point In the Halght's Itun Sewer Cases. Judges Slagle and Collier heard argu ments yesterday in the appeal of Alexander King's heirs from theassessment for the con struction of the Halght's run sewer. The ap pellants claimed that while tbe property was damaged by the construction of the sewer they bad been assessed for beneflts. It was also claimed that as the assessment was made under tbe act of 1SS7 it should be stricken off. City Attorney Moreland stated that the city was not at present in condition to do anything In the matter. There are cases now pending before the Supreme Court that would definitely fix tbe status of the city, and be asked that the appeals be set aside until the Supreme Court is heard from. The appeals were ot long standing, and he could not understand why they should be brought up at this time. No special injury or injustice would be done anybody If the cases were put off until the Supreme. Court is heard from. Judges Slagle and Collier tbonght that nothing should be done until the Supreme Conrt is heard from, as tbe case now pending will settle all such matters. Mr. Guthrie, attorney for the appellants. In sisted that the appeals were an entirely differ ent matter from tbe one before the Supreme Courr. Tbis was a private sewer entirely. Judge Slagle said: "We will not assume, al though tbe Supreme Court may. that these neo. pie (meaning the Board of Viewers) are acting as thieves and scoundrels, or from improper motives. 1 say again, we will not assume any such thing."
