THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH. SATURDAY. MARCH 14. ,1891.
RESIGHEDJHS POST,
A. T. Kowand Gives Up the Presi
, dency of the Signal Company
to H. H. Goodman and
WESTIXGIIOUSE REPRESENTATION.
The Arrangement to lie Completed at a
Sleetins of the Directory Held in
riiiladelpliia To-Daj.
. F. WATERS UPHOLDS 1IC. EOWAKD,
Win Will Act u Tici Prtsideat When He Eu Bccorntd
Ficn Bis Pretest IJkje.
A. T. Rowand has tendered his resigna
tion as President of the Union Switch and
Signal Company, and the Board of Direc
tors will meet to-dav, in Philadelphia, to
accept it, and elect E. H. Goodman, the
General Manacer, as President in his stead.
JV. T. Kowand will be Vice President. This
change in the personnel of the board has
been brought about in deference to the
opinion advanced that the "Westinjhouse
interests should have representation on the
board. Mr. Goodman was on the old board,
but is not on the new. This, anyhow,
is the reason advanced tor the change
There are stated to be other causes which
brought about a recognition of Mr. "West
incnouse as being in some slight degree in
terested in the welfare, and concerned with
the business of, the company, but they have
not transpired. This arraneement was sug
gested at a meeting on Thursday and con
cluded yestrdav. Among the reasons as
signed by Mr. "Westinghouse's friends for a
reconsideration of the matter which has
ended as above stated are the following:
Some Things Discoi ered by Ronton People.
It is slid that the Boston people were not
aware that the company held Sir. "Westing
house's personal collateral to enable it to
cover discounts, and that Mr. "Westinghouso
vas privileged to withdraw that collateral if
lie thought proper. This fact is said
to have been a factor in considering the
matter, especially beside the fact that future
discouuts might not be obtained with
desirable facility, or as readily. It is also
said that many of the patents under which
the company operates are held by Mr. VTest
inhouse personally, and such arrangements
exist as would enable him to terminate
them within a specified time.
The rnmor that Mr. Itowand had resigned
was spread at an early hour yesterday. Con
cerning it nothing could be learned on the
second floor of the "Westinghouse building.
Mr. "SVestinghonte was busy, and, anyhow,
had nothing to say. Passing from his
office for a moment, he observed the
reporters, and said, laughingly: "Still on
the warpath, eh?" but did not pause long
enough to enable any questions to be put to
Lira. He looked well, and did not seem
disturbed by events. His private secretary,
"Walter Uptegrafl, remarked that their side
had nothinc to say, very particularly, but
lie opined that some news could be obtained
from Mr. "Waters or Mr. Rowand. The
latter gentleman had not been in town dur
ing the day, and inquiry at his residence
elicited the intelligence that he was confined
to his home by prostration. He was too ill
to see anyone.
A Change or Sentiment Predicted.
Edwin F. "Waters was not disposed to
discuss the affairs of the company at first,
but finally submitted to be interviewed. He
scored certain newspapers very severely for
what he characterized as their "gross, un
just and unwarranted attacks" on Mr. Row
and, and said that when more light was
thrown on the matter, there would be a
change ol sentiment regarding the entire
affair.
"The condition of the company's affairs,"
he said, "demands that caution should be
exercised in any statements made regarding
them, and much has been already said that
has only resulted is misleading the public
respecting ibem. It is not yet time to say
anything from the point of view which we
take, but I can say that when the position
we have taken is Jully understood there will
be a revulsion of public feeling in favor of
Mr. Rowand. That gentleman is utterly
prostrated by the attacks made on him";
attacks that were without an iota of foun
dation." Mr. Waters would not reply, when asked
if Mr. Itowand has resigned as reported,
but left it to be inferred that he had.
Attorncv Sol Shozer, Jr., was more com
municative. In reply to questions he iaid:
"It was arranged at a meeting beld yester
dav. that Mr. Goodman should become
President of the company, and Mr. Rowand
Vice President This was decided upon in
consequence of advances made by Mr.
"Westinghouse and his friends, that that
gentleman's interests should have represen
tation on the Hoard of Directors. There
will be a meeting of the board to-morrow.
In Philadelphia, to rearrange the official
positions. This readjustment is not in any
way due to a supposed illegality in the elec
tion, or as in the nature of a com
promise, but to a belief that Mr. "Westing
house is entitled to have a local representa
tive on the board. Mr. Goodman was on
the old board, and is qualified to take care
of the interests of the whole of the share
holders." To-Day's Merlin in riiiladelpliia.
Mr. Waters left on the fast line for Phila
delphia. He said that there would be .-a
meeting of the board there to-day to make
chauges in its officers. He added that hf
was entirely satisfied with everything that
had been done, and that the business of the
compauv would be put on a better basis.
There was a deal of misapprehension about
its affairs that would short'v be cleared up.
He repeated what he had already said, that
Mr. Rowand's attitude was misconstrued,
and that the lesnlt would show him to be in
the right. The meeting is to be held in
Philadelphia to accommodate the directors
who belonged chiefly in Roston and Phila
delphia. Several of the signal company's officers
were at the depot to see Mr. "Waters off. Mr.
AVestinghouse is still in town, but he may
leave to-day. He is reported as having
made good progress with Electric matters.
A UTILE CAHDY AND "WHISKY.
Manager l'atton Denies That the P. & IT.
Has lltcn Plundered by Thieves.
General Manager J. V. Patton, of the
Pittsburg and Western Railroad, laughs at
tbe stoiy that an organized band of thieves
has been plundering the road. Some petty
thefts of candy and whisky had been com
mitted, and two weeks ago, as published at
the time in Tun Dispatch, two men were
arrested in Iiutler, and the company is look
ing for the third man.
"'The glittering romance may look very
well oa paper," aid Mr. Patton, "but it is
not borne out by the facts. All railroads
lose a little property once in a while through
thieves, but the Pittsburg and Western has
net been robbed by tbe wholesale, as re
ported." .Poured OH on His House.
Some one saturated the weather boards
of J. F. McHughey's house, on Soho street,
with kerosene. Mr. McHughey reported
the facts to the police. He thinks it was
the intention to burn the house.
M'KEE'S ROCKERS INDIGNANT.
Tho Death of Robert Mory Blamed Upon
the P. &I EXompanj' Another Reason,
Jt Is Claimed, Why There Should Bo
Borough Government.
The death of Robert Story, the clock-fixer,
has stirred the McKce's Rocks people to
the profoundest depth of indignation, which
is only less profoundly deep than their
streets. There was an impromptu meeting
and expression of feeling last night in Al
Young's Hotel, but those who took the lead
pledged the reporter not to give their names
at present, as they said they did not wantto
disclose their hands until another meeting
is held, probably seme time next week,
when they propose to again put the matter
in shape for the consideration of the grand
jury for the June term of the quarter ses
sions. The advocates ol the erection of a borough
state that Story would not have fallen into
the cellar and lost his life bad there been a
borough government to force the Pittsburg
and Lake Erie Railway authorities to either
erect a guard or place a light at the ruins of
the burned station house. They say several
people have tumbled into the cellar since
the Chartiers Natural Gas Company took
the lamps off tbe streets. The company was
short of gas for fuel and now the streets are
dark save where business men hang out
lanterns to guide their customers, and as
some of them do no business after 6 o'clock
r. at., thev are not in the pro-bono-publico
line.
The inhabitants complain that they are
getting wry-necked balancing themselves
on the sidewalks in their efforts to keep out
of the mud. These walks are the most
heterogeneously and wonderfully constructed
of any that have been seen since 18C5, when
Pitbole City was built. First the township
authorities laid a grab-plank walk, one
plank wide. They did not grade the streets,
and the planks conform to the to
pography of the ground. Since then some
householders have added another plank,
and others two, while some, more ambitious,
have laid walks regularly built and of full
width. The result is that if a fellow starts
to escort his girl he is obliged to break
ranks at intervals of 25 to SO feet, and since
the street lamps have been doused, tbe entire
population is forced to carry lanterns or run
the risk of dislocation of neck or limbs.
GOING BACjTTO THE LAW.
Ex-Senator Spooner Says lie Is 3fot Worry
ing Abont tho Future He Thinks a JIls
tnko 'WasMadoIn Ifot Passing the Elec
tions BUL
Ex-United States Senator Spooner, the
bright "Michigander" who retired from
public life with the close of the last Con
gress, was a passenger on the limited last
evening going home. He takes his defeat
good-naturedly, and expects to go back to
the Senate in the future.
"Yes," he said, "I have read tho story
that Senator Sawyer intended to retire with
the view of having me succeed him, but I
am not worrying very much about it. There
is nothing in tbe report so far as I know.
It was not the tariff that knocked me out,
but a number of local issues that lost us
representatives. The Lutherans, who voted
generally with the Republicans, were es
tranged by the educational bill, and the
fight for the Australian ballot system did
not help the party. I don't think a great
deal of the Australian plan. It would do
some good in tbe cities, but in the country
districts little, if any, fraudulent voting is
done. It is a difficult matter to secure an
election free fiom all taints of trickery, but
I suppose after all the general result is sel
dom changed in consequence.
"I regret that the elections bill was not
passed. It is ridiculous to say that the Re
publicans tried to force negro rule on the
South. These people give that section ad
ditional representatives, and yet their votes
are not counted. The time is coming when
the citizens in the North won't stand it, and
such a bill will be passed. Most of the bad
features of legislation emanate from the
South. They are free " traders, the
sub-treasury scheme originated .there, and
the supporters of free and unlimited coinage
of silver come lrom that territory. As for
the Farmers' Alliance they won't make
much of a stir in the Senate, but they will
be well represented in the next House."
The ex-Senator added that he had never
heard of Ffrffer or Kyle before they were
elected. He thought of the two men that
Pfeffer was tbe most intelligent, bnt he said
he was rather pleased with Kyle's appear
ance. HOWARD FIELDING has been on s
spook hunt. In THE DISPATCH to-morrow
the popular huuinristviill tell liowhe caught
a ghost and then was sat upon by it.
SPOILED A ROMANCE.
Annette Lee's Father Tarns Up and Takes
Her Home.
The father and brother of the 14-year-old
girl who represented herself to Inspector
McAleese as Annette Lee, of Rutler, Pa.,
and viho told such a sad story of. having
been turned out of the house of her deceased
aunt by heartless creditors, called at Central
station last night and took the girl home.
He is a reputable business man of Butler,
and declined to give his name in order to
escape unpleasant notoriety. He said, how
ever, that the girl bad played truant from
school, and baying been chastised for doing
the same thing on a previous occasion, ran
away this time to escape a whipping.
Instead of being an orphan and entirely
friendless, as she represented, she has sev
eral brothers and sisters and a good home
with her father. Her mother being dead,
the house is kept by a hired housekeeper,
and it is the opinion of the father that tbe
girl did not like the woman, and this 'was
one reason for her running awav. She was
taken in charge by her father last night.

STKUCK BY A STORM.
Pittsburg and Allegheny Hit Amid
ships by a Stiff March Gale.
THE HEAVIEST KNOWN FOE YEARS,
Althongh There Was Scarcer Any Damage
and No Lives Lost.
ONE PLATE GLASS WINDOW BLOWN OUT
Pittsburg and Allegheny were swept by a
wind storm yesterday. The storm came
from the west, and had a velocity of 40 miles
ail hour. Although it spread terror in
every section, there was no loss of life and
but very little damage. Only a few people
were slightly injured. Buildings swayed
in the wind and the air was full of flying
missiles. Roofs were torn loose and chim
neys blown down'in many instances.
The storm only covered a radius of 40
miles, and .Pittsburg was the center of the
blizzard. Before the storm the barometer
fell lrom 29.03 to 29.33. The disturbance
commenced at 11:30 o'clock, and in a kvr
minutes tbe storm was so violent that men
workjng on new buildings deserted them
and sought shelter. The next instant
bricks began to fall from all sides, and
boards and pieces of timber were sent flying
through the air. Pedestrians ran for any
shelter that could be found, while umbrel
las and hats were left as playthings for the
breeze. "Wagons were overturned in the
street, and travel was impeded from one end
of the city to the other.
Eortnnato Escape From Falling Bricks.
The great tower-like chimney of the
wrecked Germania building was one of the
first to fall. It struck and crushed in parts
of the Merchants' and Manufacturers' In
surance building and RobinsouBros.' Bank.
About tbe same time a big piece of the iron
cornice of tbe Germania building was
blown into Wood street, but no one was
struck. The high walls of the "Weldin
block trembled in the storm, .and for a time
it looked as if there would e a repetition
ot tbe disaster of two years ago.
Two hours after the storm started it had
settled down to a steady March gale that
fairly whistled as it tore through the streets.
A light snow storm added to the discomfort.
But few women appeared in the streets, and
those who did venture out were heavily
veiled to protect their faces from the wind.
Early in the eveuinc there was a blinding
snow which only lasted for a short time and
then the weather became clear and cold.
The most peculiar part of the storm'."
work was that done at George Biggs' jew
elry store, at Sixth avenue and Smithfield
street. The Sixth avenue window is filled
by a single piece of plate glass which is the
largest in America, being 14 feet square
and worth (400. ihis was blown into the
store and shattered into fragments. Louis
Evans, a watchmaker, was severely cut
on the head, but will recover. Several of
the clerks received slight injuries. "When
the crash came a number of costly vases and
pieces of bric-a-brac were broken. The
loss on them alone will amount to 1,500.
There was no insurance except on the glass,
and another plate has been ordered from
the Ford Glass Company. Henry Harris,
the porter at the store, was slightly cut
bigns Blown Down and Smashed.
The sign in front of Peter C. Shidle's store
on Smithfield street was blown down and
smashed. Several people were struck, but
were not badly injured.
On tbe Southside it seemed for a time as
if the Twenty-eighth ward station house
would blow over. It has been in a bad con
dition for som: time and shook in the wind,
but did not go over. Several canvas awn
ings were also ripped from their frames.
On the hills above the Southside the
storm was very severe. The now house o
Thomas; "Williams, at Becks Run, was
caught and thrown clear off Us foundation.
The loss will be about ?G0O. In Allentown
little 11-year-old Lucy Davis was on her
way home from school when the wind
actually took her breath away. She gasped
for a moment, and then fell insensible. She
had to be carried into a house, and it was
some time before she revived.
Iu the East End considerable damage was
done. The large advertising boards on
Fifth avenue, near Cralt avenue, were blown
down. The sheds at Mawhinney's brick
yard were badly damaged. Six telegraph
poles on Forbes street, near Halket street,
were blown down. A number of fences
along Highland and Ellsworth avenues were
blown down.
In Allegheny there was scarcely any dam
age done more than the loss of a few signs
and several chimneys. In both cities wires
were blow down, but the damage was not
near as severe as had been supposed.
AJAX BIDS DEFIANCE.
The Tart That a Plaster Cast ot That Hero
Played In the Storm.
The passer-by on Wood street yesterday
who chanced to look at the Boatman'sbuild
ing discovered in one of the.Pittsburg Art
School windows the plaster figure of Ajax
defying the lightning. Ajax is nothing if
not defiant, and he stands iu the position
hastily given him when the Germania Bank
building wall struck the art school build
ing, looking toward the Germania building
as courageously as ever, notwithstanding
the severe shaking-up he and the fighting
gladiator, Descobulus, and other notables,
had received.
The art school was not seriously damaged,
but the pupils who were at work at the time
the wall fell received a shock which sent
them hurrying from the building. It is ex
pected that the slight damage will be re
paired to-morrow and the school resume
operations Monday.
COLDER THAN THE STORM.
A Southsldo Street Car Conductor Who Has
Swallowed a Refrigerator.
Last night about 9 o'clock as car No. 9
of the Southside line was crossing the
Monongebela bridge, a sudden gust of wind
and snow carried the driver's stool off of the
car. A young boy jumped off and picked
it up and started for the car. After chasing
tbe car almost the entire length of the bridge
he finally caught up with it.
Several of the passengers became quite
interested in the race, and finally a pool was
formed and bets made whether the conductor
would make the boy pay his fare or carry
him free for his generosity. The only one
who bet that the conductor would demand
fare evidently knew him lor he did so almost
as soon as the boy landed on the car, and the
knowing passenger captured the entire pool.
TICKET SELLERS WERE SCARED.
The B.1I). Downtown Offlce Shakes in the
Storm.
The heavy sign over the door of the Mis
souri Pacific offices was loosened from its
moorings yesterday by the wind, and it was
taken down by Mr. Starr for fear it would
fall on someone.
The clerks in the Baltimore and Ohio
passenger office state that their building
trembled violently when the walls of the
Germania Rank building fell yesterday.
So far as they conld see, however, no dam
age had been done to the strncture.
Driven In by tho Storm.
There was an unusual number of appli
cants for lodging at the Twenty-eighth
ward station last night. Several were
turned away on account of being unable to
explain their cause for such circumstances.
Eight were given Icdginsr, one of whom was.
locked np for drunkenness. Theygave their
names as follows, and came from towns
mentioned: George McCall, Sandusky, O.;
Joseph Deseary, France, O.; William Rock.
'Cleveland, O.; Martin Thomas, Cleveland,
O.; John Morrey, Ogdensburg, N. Y.;
Johu Flinn and Thomas Leonard, Pitts
burg, and Thomas Newell, New York City.
PLATED HAVOC OUTSIDE.
Somo County Storm Scenes Noted From a
Car Window.
The storm in the knobs between this city
and Frankfort Springs was a young cyclone.
Striking one it would carom and hit another
and between the two the unsightly worm
fences got a great shaking up and the fiber
in them intended for next year's wasps' nests
flew in the air like thistledown. Some
farmers suffered for their greed in denuding
these heights of the timbers which formerly
"tangled," or broke the force of their blast.
Now it glances off the smooth surface and
gathers force in its onward career. Persons
in the middle of fields were dodging from
piecesof broken rails and a pair, of large
oxen near Forest Grove found their stand
ing more secure by turning one end to tlTe
storm than by standing broaa-side.
At Forest Grove a sheet iron stack at an
engine house blew down, and the sheet ot
flame from the natural gas fire being blown
against the roof of u boiler house belonging
to the Fort Pitt Natural Gas Company set
it on fire, and in a few minutes the structure
was consumed. Many derricks were badly
warped, but so far as beard from they with
stood the pressure.
Mt Washington is a good wind breaker
or this city would have suffered severely.
Had the gale been up the river the conse
quence would have been disastrous.
Trains Not Delajod.
The through trains of the Baltimore aim
Ohio and Pennsylvania railroads were net
affected much by the wind and storm yester
day. The express from the East on t!)e
Baltimore and Ohio arrived on time, but it
snowed hard in the mountains. Toe
limited on the Pennsylvania was 25 niii-
utes behind. The other trains were on tin
BRAZIL'S REVOLUTION.
An Interesting; Lecture Before the County
Teachers' Institute by Delos Fall Some
of the Peculiarities of tho New Repub
lic as Seen by a Visitor.
There was a large audience present last
night at the session of the County Teach
ers' Institute, in the Butler Street M. I.
Church. The programme comprised amonjj
other things, music and a lecture, "Coup
d'etat in Brazil," by Delos Fall, of Mici
igan. After prayer by Rev. Dr. Pierce.
"My Country 'Til of Thee," was sung by .a
chorus consisting of 30 boys and girls.
Superintendent Luckey made a few remarks
npon the duty of teachers, and the disad
vantages under which they labor, owing to
the lack of interest shown in the work by
many parents.
Mr. Fall in the course of his lecture said
that tbe present era was with several excep
tions the most remarkable in the history of
the world. Many wonderful things had
been done, but to his mind one of the great
est achievements was the transformation ot
Brazil in a single day from a monarchy to a
Republic without the shedding of a drop of
blood. Although, said be, the change was
made in a day the first indications of such a
result were to be seen as early as 1798, when
an attempt was made to overthrow the Gov
ernment. Mr. Fall then gave a lengtby description
of a trip along the Amazon river, minutely
describing the animal and vegetable life of
the northern portion of tbe republic, and
the amusing experiences he met with. He
says the American dollar is there sold at a
premium of 20 per cent. The common coin
is called the ral, and it requires 20 of them
to make one penny. The natives are a lazy
class, and tbe policemen often rest while
chasing after a culprit they desire to place
under arrest. Milk is delivered at the
doors of the houses in a very peculiar man
ner, the cows being driven from house to
house. A remarkable feature about the
Amazon river, said Mr. Fall, is that for six
hours in a day a person can go many miles
inland with the tide and out again with ebb
tide, the waters being affected by the? tides
for 730 miles fnland.

all classes.
BOTH WERE LOCKED UP.
A Canceled Share Warrant Gets. Two Men
Into Trouble.
Frank Eberlie, a Fifth avenue barber,
took a man named J. W. Gallagher to Cen
tral station last night and wanted him
locked up for trying to pass counterfeit
money. He said Gallagher wanted to give
him a $50 bill for ?5. Gallagher was intox
icated when taken to the station, and said
he did not want Eberlie to give him $5 for
a supposed counterfeit. Instead, he said,
he had been offered 5 for the paper, and
would take it because he knew it was
not legitimate currency, and, to verify his
statements, he showed the paper, which
turned out to be a share warrant of the
American Exchange iu Europe, and had
the figures 30 printed on the lower left
hand corner. There was no wording on the
paper to show that it had any special value,
and was printed with a bank note cut.
Eberlie was also under the influence of
liquor, and as his actions were thought to
be about as stranre as he said Gallagher's
were, they bath will answer to a charge ol
drunkenness this morning.
A QUARTET OF RUNAWAYS.
One Nan Discovers That He Was Unac
quainted With His Team.
Runaway horses were plentiful in Alle
gheny yesterday. The first was at 3 A. m.,
and Mr. and Mrs. Moore, of Pennsylvania
avenue were the victims. They were return
ing from tbe East End in a carriage. The
horses ran away on Ohio street. Both of
them jumped out. Neither of them were
badly hurt, but the carriage was smashed.
The next was at 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
Two horses attached to a wagon ran off.
William Leete, a farmer, tried to stop them,
but his own team ran off. Both wagons
were demolished, and one horse had his leg
broken.
The last was at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.
A horse attached to a milk wagon ran away
on Spring Garden avenue. A little boy
named Snyder, who was driving tho wagon,
was thrown out and had his head severely
cut.
DEATH OF ANDREW ROBINSON.
He Was One of the Early Postmasters In
Allegheny City.
Andrew L. Robinson died early yesterday
morning at his home, 24 Union avenue, Al
legheny. He was in his C3d year, and one
of the best known men iu Allegheny City,
although be has not figured in either busi
ness or public life for a number of years.
He W3S a member of the old Robinson
family, whose name is synonymous with the
history of the city. He formerly owned
large imounts of real estate in the cit'and
had a large private lortnne. For years he
was a leader among the Democracy "of Alle
gheny, and under President Buchanan he
wasa"ppiuted postmaster in that city. The
funeral services will be held at his late resi
dence, on Union avenne, at 2 o'clock to
morrow afternoon.
They Conld Not Find a Quorum.
The Finance Committee of Allegheny was
to have met last night to consider the
ordinance for the $200,000 temporary loan
bonds. The inclement weather kept some
of the members confined to their homes, so
that a quorum could not he secured, there
fore there was no meeting.

0KE-THIKD THE BIRTHS NOT EEP0ETED
Ministers, doctors and midwives all over
the city are threatened with suits for not re
porting marriages and births to the Bureau
of Health. An act of 1870 imposes a fine
of $20 for each offense for not making such
reports. The law has never been fully lived
up to, the various health inspectors having
to visit the most of these persons and com
pel them to make returns. Chief Clerk
Wilbur F. McKelvy has decided to do this
no longer, but to bring suits wherever the
reports are not forthcoming.
The Aldermen are tbe only people who
live up to the law, and the midwives rank
next, with physicians and ministers at the
bottom of the list With doctors it is due
to neglect Ministers fail mostly from ig
norance of the law, and the most trouble is
experienced with Methodist preachers, say
the authorities.
"None of tbe city records, said Chief
Clerk McKelvy yesterday, "are more de
ficient than those of marriages and births.
The fine for not reporting them is $20 for
each offense, and lam going to see that the
law is enforced.
One-Third of tho Births Not Reported.
"I believe that nearly one-third of the
births were not reported last year, and
there is no way of telling abont the mar
riages. The ignorance of preachers is
largely to blame for this, although we send
them notices at the beginning of each quar
ter, to which many of them pay but little
attention. Then they change their resi
dences, and we lose tract of them, while
they do not make any attempt to find us.
This is particularly true with the Method
ists, who change charges so often.
A number or the ministers and all the
physicians and midwives know the law. but
many do not comply with it We send out
notices on tbe 1st of April and another in
ten days, if no return is made. After that
I have been sending out the inspectors to
bring in tho reports personally, but I will
not do it any more. If the reports are not
all in by the latter end of April for this
present quarter I will simply bring suits.
Why, one doctor refused to give an inspector
a report. He said he did not have to do it
unless he-was paid, but we soon showed him
his mistake. Midwives, as a rule, make
their reports, but most of them ire so densely
ignorant that their returns are inaccurate,
very often they do not leport all the births.
One Necessity for Complete Records
"That has been proven a number of times
recently, since all the soldiers' widows are
being pensioned, and they come here to get
a record of tbe births in their family to send
on to Washington. No record "is to be
found, but when the midwife is hunted up
the records "were found. She had simply
not turned them in with her reports.
"Midwives should be abolished, anyway.
During the last year there were 385 deaths
from childbirth, nearly all of whom could
have been saved with proper attention, and
four-fifths of them were under the charge ol
midwives. Of course they are employed by
people who do not feel able to employ a
doctor, but it is'a poor kind of economy. "
"As for the Aldermen, we never have any
trouble with them; but the doctors and
preachers must be made to obey the law. I
have consulted with Chief Brown on the
matter, and his advice is to go in and prose
cute. We have a complete list of all the
doctors and midwives, but the list of minis
ters is not perfect The inspectors.however,
are making a canvass of each of their dis
tricts, and we expect to have the list full.
Notices will be sent to all, and if they are
not obeyed we will call in the law. Last
month I fully Intended to prosecute 15 doc
tors, but then I decided to wait and make a
clean sweep in April."
SLEEPING CARS are haunted. A'.Iocal
railroad man will tell all abont It in THE

GAVE IT HIS HERITAGE.
John Threnhaaser, of tho Southside, Gives
Dr. Arnholdt an Inheritance He Re
ceived From Germany, for the Hospital
Subscriptions Iielng Received.
"The little rub the Southside Hospital got
a short time ago has done it some good,"
said Dr. Arnhold last evening. "It has
stirred tbe people up considerably, and I
think we shall soon be on our feet The
committee from the hospital is at Harris
burg at present, with petitions and argu
ments, and expects to be able to get an ap
propriation. I was out last week making a
few calls on various liquor dealers, asking
for contributions to help us along in our
work, and accidentally met John Thren
hauser, of the Tnefth ward. Upon telling
him what I was doing, he said: 'Don't go to
mv place, doctor, but I will do this for yon.
My father died some time ago iu Germany
anil left me something. I have been noti
fied several times to send for it, but would
not bother about it They have sent
ic to me through Alderman Hartman,
and I am on my way up there to
to get it I don't know bow mnch there is,
but you can have it all for the hospital, and
welcome. I think it is a good ctuse and
should be helped along.'
"The next day Mr. Threnhauser walked
into my office and laid down $25. 'There,
doctor,"' said he, 'there it is; don't be disap
pointed with the amount, but I told you be
fore it would not be much.' 'Not at all,'
said I; 'it is the small sums that keep us
alive,' and I'gave him a receipt for his in
heritance." Sorrow Drove Away His Sanity.
George Lsng, a resident of Seigle street
Allegheny, was committed to Dixmont yes
terday by Major Hunker, of the Allegheny
Poor Board. About a year ago Lang's wife
walked away from the supper table and was
not seen for nine weeks, when her body was
found floating in the Ohio river. This so
preyed on the husband's mind that he
finally lost his reason.

BLAME IT ON THE WEATHER.
What Some Physicians Say Is tho Canse of
the Present Excessive Amount of Sick
ness It May Be Called the Grip, Influ
enza or Catarrh.
"Every person who has a cold imagines
he has, or is getting the grip," remarked
Dr. J. R. Thompson, last night "Whether
it is grip or simply very bad colds, there is
no doubt that many hundreds of Pittsburg
ersare sick, and very sick. Medical men say
that the greater part of the sickness from
which so many people suffer has been caused
by the changeable weather which has visited
this section of the country during the winter
and .which still continues. But it is not
only the people of Pittsburg who are suffer
ing, bnt in Chicago physicians assert that
many have the genninc grip."
Dr. Thompson sid he bad not seen a case
of grip this winter. He believed that the
grip was caused by impure air, and that
naturally its severity depended upon differ
ences in constitutions. Then again there
were differences -in the symptoms. Tne
Doctor did not think there were many cases
in the city similar to those prevalent when
the grip was so bad here. Unquestionably
a great many people were suffering from
colds, influenza, catarrh, so badly that tbey
were confined to their beds. It was the ex
ceptionally bad weather'that did it
Dr. C. F. Bingaman said it was a hard
matter to define just what was the grip. As
he understood it, persons suffering from a
disease that might be' given that term were
usually under excessive depression of
spirits. He had never seen a greater num
ber of people troubled with severe colds
than at present, and it required prudence to
prevent them from turning into pneumonia.
He won Id not call it the grin, because there
was no defined rule by which the symptoms
were governed.
Dr. Thomas W. Shaw was sure that in all
his years of practice he had not seen so
mnch suffering from what everyone who had
a severe cold called the grip. It was a
species of catarrh, or influenza, and a great
discomfort for its victims. It was due to
the weather, and its victims were men,
women and children. There was nothing
serious to be feared unless it developed into
pneumonia. Tbe best way to rid one's self
of the disease was, if possible, to remain
indoors and secure medical treatment at
once.
Dr. Arnholt stated last evening that the
grip had a good hold on the Southside, and
that he had from eight to a dozen cases a
day. "As to the cause," said he, "I think it
is from the changeable weather, and people
