THE PITTSBTIRG- DISPATCH. TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1891. BIG BOOM IN BRICK. L'annfaclnrers Will Hold an Import ant Meeting Here To-Day. W03DEBFUL OUTPUT OP A TEAK. ConaellsTille Strike Took an Interesting Tarn Yesterday. MISCELLANEOUS IXDDSTBIAL ITEMS There Trill be an important meeting of the Western Pennsylvania Brick Exchange 10 day in this city. At the last meeting of the Exchange an attempt was made to increase the price of brick from 57 50 a thousand to 8. There was not a full representation present, and by some pretty lively hustling by the opponents of the movement, a motion for the increase W3S prevented from passing. Tuere were a number at the meeting, however, that held the opinion that the immense increase in the demands for their product would justify the flight advance aimed at, and it is likely the tame attempt will be repeatedjto-day. . On this point a manufacturer said yester day: "In no branch of building materials have prices remained stationary so long as they have in our business. "Where we re ceived orders for thousands a few years ago, -e are now called upon for millions. There is scarcely a brick manufacturer in the city that lias not been compelled to increase his capacity and consequently his expenses, but the prices are compelled to remain the Eame." The Brick Trade Never So Good. Edward JIcGraw, of J. A. McGraw & Brothers, said: "I do not know whether prices will go up or not. I was at the meeting when tho unsuccess ful attempt was made to raise them, and I know the business never was oo flourishing as it lias been during the past j ear. and as the in dications are for the next jcar. Our association lias just been in existence a year now, and we claimed to have accomplished a great deal in that time. We have secured for membership all the leading local manufacturers, and will sues be in a position to control the brick mar ket. "Our reports show that 84,000,000 bricks were sold in Fitt.-burg last ear. and at the present late the output fur tho next 12 months will reach, n not exceed. 123, 000.010. Our capacity at the LiDerty Rrick Works, v. Inch is at present one of the largest in the citv, will be increased from a canacity of 20.000 to 40.000 a day in order to supply tho gradually increasing demand, mostlj fiom the mills, which seem to never get through making improvements. That will make ou- capacity about 13,000.000 a J ear. and lam sure we are sold four months ahi ad. This wonderful consumption of brick led to an invc-ti ratmn of the improvements under way and the disposition made of this product. It was found that while countless houses of brick and stnnc are being erected, the greater portion of the material is going into mill improienients. One Place TVliere a Million TVent. The Hainesworth bteel Works used over 2.660,W)0bricks.lastyearin the erection of anew blooming mill which, when completed, will more than double their capacity. They have ordered 200,0v0 more to use in a new con crtlng mill. Carnegie, Phipps A Co. have used many mill ions in building new additions to and improv ing their various mills. A large number went snto the new converting mill at liraddock. The uupiovenicnts at both the upocr and lower mills in Lawrenceville consumed millions. This firm uses more po-sibly than any other firm in the citj, for the reason that they are constantly making improvements of some character. Frauenlieini A Vilsack have ordered 5.000,000 lor the addition to the Iron City Breweiv, and a score of other firms might be mentioned that have placed large orders to be filled within the next lew mouths. Booth fc Flinn are probably the largest manu factuiers in the city and arc the only ones who hae been compelled to reduce their capacitv. Some if their works have been abut down oning largely to a falling off of city work, ami the.) hare been compelled to direct their atten tion to other sources. FIGURIHG ON THE QUIET. The Tanners' Trust Refuses to Let the Pub lic Into Its Secrets. The Committee on Organization of the Tan ners Trust met at the Duqucsne yesterday to finish some details that had been neglected. President James D. Callery. Secretary William A. Sloonej, of Columbus, Ind.. and ex-Stato fcenator George Jl. Anderson, who is Commis sioner of the trust, were among the number present. Mr. Anderson referred the reporters to Secre tarj Jlooney for information, but that individ ual is one of the chilliest Hookers living. He had nothing to sa. and would not be ques tioned, hince the organization of the associa tion, which is devoted to the interests ot har-Tse-s leather manulacturcrs, the membership has been constantlj increasing, and makers of other kinds of leather have applied for admis sion. The general feeling is to admit all tan ners who put up the collateral and agree to obey all the rules. The capital stock repreient taaaou o er S12.000.000, and going higher. COKE HATES SOT C0NSIDEBED. No Reduction Looked for Until After tho Coke strike Is Oier. At the meeting of tho Pittsburg Committeo or Freight Agents jesterday the demands of tho Valley furnace men lor a reduction in the coke rates were not considered. General traight Agent Frank Dean, of the Lake Lrie road, said the subject would not be brought up until the coke strike was settled. The business of the meeting was of an unimportant char acter. The local railroad traffic is not what it should be by a good deal, and the ageuts do not con ceal tlii-. fact. The coke stnko is alreadv tell log on tut tonnage, and the shutdown in the vnllejs is helping to reauce the good record of lastjear TO EATE AN OFFICIAL OHGAN. Ui'.ltPd 'Workmen Secure a Charter for a Publishing Company. A charter was granted yesterday to the Key stone V orkman Publishing Company, of this city. The capital is S3,0U0 and the directors are illiam IL Ford, C Imnn and O. K. Garden, l Pitf-burc; Josenh J. llroadgulrtz, V.'. II, Long and V ilium K. Carlisle, of Philadelphia: J. M.

McNair, Grand Secre tary. Mr. McNair is the prospectus editor of the journal. MOBE XACHIXERY NEEDED. The Standard Oil Company Making Exten sile Improvement. The Standard cooper shop in the Eighteenth ward has been closed don n for improvements. It is proposed to erect a number of new ma chines for making barrels. The force in the factory Mill be decreased, but the capacity in creased. The machine now in use at the Jersey City an J 15a View shops is to be tried, which will turn out a barrel complete from the green etave. The company has also purchased 200 new tank cars with a capacity of 40.000 to be used in transporting refined oil to the leading cities. AGAINST JOHN PHILLIPS. The Executive Hoard, K. d L, Renders a Final Decision in the Case. Toe Executive Board of tho Knights of Labor met yesterday in Washington. D. C, ana rendered decision against John Phillips, the expelled member of L. A. E00. Mr. Phil tips' friends, it is said, claim the board was in fluenced by a threat from U A. 300 that if 3 Jilllps was ordered to be reinstated, the Window Glass oncers' Association would withdraw from the Knights of Labor, and that the matter will be appealed to the General As scmbl attu- next session. I A. 300 -ffleials deny that anvsuch threats were made PIPEHAKEES TO MEET. Delegates to the Monthly Session Arrive at tho 3Ionongalila. The regular monthly meeting of the Wrought Iron Pipe Manufacturers' Association will bo held at the Monongahola House to-day. Most of the delegates came in last night, and otheis will come to-day.

ASSUMED ANEW PHASE. The Connellsvillo Strike, Now a Week Old, Takes a Turn Fighting Against a Re duction Details of the situation at Scottdale. The strike in the Connellsville region has assumed a new phase. The miners now claim to be striking more against the 10 per cent reduction than the demand of the ad vance of 12 to 15 per cent. This fact was brought out to-day in interviews with local labor leaders. Acting Secretary DeHaven said: "We are determined not to accept the reduction proposition. The miners thronghout the region have almost unanimously decided against it on the grounds that the selling price ot coke does not justify it. We maintain that wc are entitled to an ad vance." AVortbv Foreman McSloy talked in the same strain. The strike at the Ft. Hill plant of W. J. Rainey has been broken and almost a full run was mado to-dy. Only a few men are at work at the Paul! plant of W.J. Rainey, however, and about one-third is being made. The whole region is virtually involved in the stnke. which was inaugurated last Tuesday. The Moyer plant, the employes of which refused to strike, and worked in de fiance of the labor organisations, are now out of employment by a fire Tjfuch broke out in the shaft of that works. The strikers had planned a fierce effort to rorce these obstinate employes into line this week by resorting to the unwelcome extremity ot raiding them, in which several persons no doubt would have been badly hurt, it is safe to remark that Mio fire prevented them from carrying out their designs. The strikers still say that these 500 men must join the strike. The fight has now been on for overa week, and lhe strikers have not wavered at any plant save Eaincy's, where many of them have resumed work. It was reported that two assemblies of strikers of the McClure Coke Company had de cided to resume work if the labor leaders did not force tho Kalney men to strike. Promi nent coke operators met yesterday and had a secret conference. None of their actions could be learned, though it is intimated that they may make an endeavor to break the strike. WOKE FOE WOEKlirSMEN. The Hospital Association Can Find Some thing for Them to Do. At the quarterly meeting of the Hospital Saturday and Sunday Association yesterday, at winch William McCreery presided. General Agent J.ILBenham reported the distribution of 1.200 copies of the annual report, addresses de livered to lodges, visits to workingmen in mills etc He said the Sonthside Hospital was de sirous of annexation, and ho suggested the advisability of enlisting ladies to tako charge, of contribution boxes on the street and in pub lic buildings. The Executive Committee will meet with ladies to take action. Chairman McCreery suggested that working men :iud trade unions might exercise influenco lit Harrisburgto secure appropriations for hos pitals, to which he said they were entitled on account of the charitable work they did, and the reports now showed that a large majority of patients were treated free. Official Vote To-Nlght. Tho Carpenters' Conncil will meet to-night to receive a decision on the prospective eight hour movement, which a majority ot the mem bers have voted in favor of entertaining. There is considerable dissatisfaction over the Tote, and it now looks probaole that the rnlo governing such matters, requiring a two-thirds vote, will be overridden. Many Statements Denied. Mr. P. Cunningham, of Scotland, denied yes terday that be had been detained in New York for violation of the contract labor laws. When the rumor gained circulation he was sailing on the sea. He has been brought, he says, to su perintend the work on the $1,000,000 plant ot the Watts Steel and Iron Syndicate at Jliddles borougb, Ky. Boiler Makers Will Stay. It now seems that tho boiler makers will change their minds and not withdraw from the Knights of Labor. John Doyle, a member of the assembly, is authority for the statement that they did vote in favor ot leaving, but the matter has since been reconsidered. One Kind of an Advance. About 20 men employed at the works of the Schoen Manufacturing Company, V ood's Run, asked for an advance in wages yesterday and were discharged. OBJECTS TO BEING CUT OFT. A Woman Protesting Against the Provisions or Her Father's Will. Mrs. Kate E. Turpin yesterday filed in the Orphans' Court an appeal from the Register's decision in admitting to probate a paper pur porting to be the last will of her father, Robert C. Henderson, who died October S, 1S89. The will was dated April 24, 1SS9, and probated Oc tober 17, 16S9, and letters testamentary issued to C. F. McKenna, as one of the' executors. Mrs. Turpin claims that it Is not the last will of her fatner, because, at the time, be was not competent to make a wilL The Court issued a citation on the parties interested and fixed February 2S for a hearing. In the will in question Mr. Henderson, who was a resident of the Tnenty-ftrst ward, be queaths one-half of his estate to the bisters of Mercy in charge of ihc Mercy Hospital, and the other half to the Little Sisters of the Poor in charge of the Home for Aged Men and Women, ou Penn avenue. To his only daugh ter he gave S1U0, because, he said, be was under no obligations to her; but if sho became poor he desired the Sisters ot the Poor, or of .dercy, to give her a home, it she would do some work in return. C. F. McKenna and O. M. Edwards were appointed executors. HIS HOTHEB DEAD. Manager Askln, of the McCanll Company, Kccelves Sad News. Mrs. Askln, tho mother ot Harry Askln, manager of the McCaull Opera Company, died very suddenly yesterday in Philadelphia, from peritonitis. She as 47 years old.
