gm$K m &&&$$' PWS SIGN! W SCULL A Compromise on the Honrs of Work Beached by the Committee Short ly After Midnight. BOTH SIDES MAKE CONCESSIONS. 2ine Hours and a Quarter to Belhe length of the Iron Heater's Day for the Kelt Tear. A BIG-STKIKE-EXPECTHUAT DUQEESNE; .-Indications tf a Speedy Settltment-of the Carpenters' Troubles. The Amalgamated scale -was signed at 11:15 this morning and as a con sequence only those mills that would have been shut down for stock-taking will be idle to-day. The prolonged conten tion on the nine-hour clause ended in a com- promise, the time from the charging of the iflret heat until charging shall cease being fixed at 9 hours and 15 min utes. The -whole trouble as pre viously stated in The Dispatch hinged on the new paragraph in the memorandum of agreement, added this year. The re mainder of the scale wns not ohanged to any extent, an-i was accepted in almost every particular. The Scale as Agreed Upon. The additional paragraph.as finally agreed upon, reads: The time in scrapping and iTshcIlng. also finish ing and all other departments shall in no case ex ceed 3 honrs and 15 minutes from the time the first heat Is charged until charging shall cease, this is not to apply to boiling department (excepting scrapping and bushellng) also rod mills, ire mills, nut nnd bolt works, and other departments work ing unaerthe eight (8) hour ej-steu . It Is well understood that James 31. Bailey erd A. 3L Byers & Co. wore the bitterest op ponents ol the nine-hour clause, and they took the stand that a limit on the timo in -which heats shonld be made would mean a reduction in the out put. Then there were others who opposed the rule on general principles.fearing that rf It were agreed to this this year, the men would ask for eight hours next year. As is well known, conferences were held almost daily since the adjournment of the convention. The Amalgamated committee had been giren power to act and yesterday tt looked as though they would concede the clau9e entirely. But tbey clung to their cause bravely and with a firmness that convinced the manufactur ers that they were in earnest. A Whole Day Without Hope. The whole day was spent without any en couraging indications of a settlement. When the conference adjourned for supper at 7 o'clock last night D. B. Oliver said he thought the matter would be arranged all right, but he did not believe the nine-hour clause ould be adopted. Mr. A. 31. Byers said he was not sure of it. He was eure'the manufacturers would not agree to it because cf the reduction it would make In the output of nearly every mill in the country. Representatives of the workmen's com mittee were just as firm that they would not concede the new clause. A proposition had been made by them during the day to the effect that they would allow the nine hours begin at the time the mill started. This, thev claimed, would give the firms an advantage of over an honr, but the manu facturers declined to accept that. Scrambled to Keep Mills Going. The final session of the Conference Com mittee was held In the top story of the Fidelity building, last night. It lasted until after midnight, and when it adjourned there was a scramble on the part of the manu facturers to get word to their mills to have their men continue operations. D. B. Oliver dispatched a couple of men to Woods" liun and another to the Southside, and E. M. Byers sent word to bis works to have the mill kept running. Everyone was feeling jubilant' that no strike is to occur and the Amalgamated people feel that tbey have won an important point m thhvyear's scale, even though an ad vance was not asked for. President Weihe said this morning, after the scale was eigned: "This Is something we have never, .had in the scale before. We nevei tried to limit the time in which work should be done In any department of the mills before, but I guess the firms won't suffer much." James M. Bailey said: "This is only an ex periment. I don't believe it will work. We will try it for a year, however, and if it is not sat lslactory we will have to try something else. In all my experience I have never seen business as bad as it is now. We have not an order on our books that we could not get out in three days, and we will close down for about two weoks to take stock." Somewhat Fearful of the Outcome. A. M. Byers said: "This course was not wanted by the men, as was stated in the conference. They tried to tell ns that Eix of my own men were anxious to have the new clause adopted. By a per sonal investigation I found this was not so. and lam sure it will operate against us." The other changes in last year's scale were of little importance. The manufacturers wanted one of the "extras" taken from the tin plate scale, but It was finally agreed to. The change in the tank andplato mills is: Top andbottompricesforsheetbars cut from crop ends and defective plates, iron and steel. In sheet mills the change makes the shear man receive one-fifth, the same paid to the rulers. In sheet-mill hands' scale the day hands on sheet and lobbing mills working two turns of eight hours each and on mills working three turns of eight hours each, shall be paid a full turn's work in case of a failure to make the eight heats in the time specified in memoranda of agreement on a tw o-turn mill or a full turn on a three-turn mill. The addenda is:" Houghing down on D&r. structural and 12-inch mills must be paid not les3 than 30 per cent of rollers' wages. Didn't Wait Till the Last. The following firms signed the scale yes terday and will be given the benefits of the concession: Moorhead, McCleane & Co., Howe, Brown & Co., the Wayne Iron and 6tecl Companv, P. II. Laufman & Co., Linu, the Whitaker Rollins Mill Company, of Wheeling, the Anderson Boiling Mill Company, Anderson Ind.; the Sharon Iron Company and the Atlantic Iron Works, Sharon; Joseph Corns and Son, MasslUon, O.; the LabeUe Mill Com pany, Wheeling, and the Findlay Iron Works. Hughes & Patterson, of Philadel phia, and the National Rolling Hill Com pany, of McKeesport, had signed previously. ONLY WANT FINE WEATHER. The One Thing Needful to Make Labor Xayat Steuben llle a Success The Sec retary Here Completing Arrangements Programme of the Day. George K. Poth, Secretary of the General Committee having charge of the great labor demonstration inStcubenvillo next Monday, was in the city yesterday. Ho spent the day conferring with the representatives of the local labor organizations that are to take part in the allair. lie estimates that from 2,000 to 3.000 people xyill go from Pitts burg. Arrangements for the day have been completed in Stcubenville. Information has been leceived which warrants the statement that over 12,000 men will tako part in the parade. A great deal of enthusiasm has been manifested in the object of the demonstration and the temporary closing of some of the mills here will insure a large attendance from Pittsburg. The completed programme has been an nounced. The parade takes place at 11:30. There will lw hve divisions. The first and last will be important ones, the first com- SrUing the carriages containing the three overnors, the speakers, invited guests, the Pittsburg Press Club and the family of the late Thomas A. Armstrong. The filth division will be composed entirely of industrial and com mercial displays on floats mid will be over two miles in length. Tho committee In Stcubenville has engaged the decorator who arranged the prize arch at the Wash ington Inaugural Centennial to arrange these displays and supervise the decorations In the town. At 2:15 the ceremonies at the grave of Thomas A. Armstrong will take place, pre sided over by William Martin, lion. Miles S. Humphreys will deliver an oration and Thomas MoNamee will read an original poem. At 3 o'clock tho exercises at the grove begin, when Governor Campbell will deliver a short address of weloome.

Mr. Poth spent Inst night on the Southsido among the organizations on that side of the river, which are expected to turn out in large numbers. THE STRIKE SOON TO END. A Final Conference Will Be Asked for To-Day to Settle It Painters Threaten to Go Oat This Morning New Bales Not IJked. The end of the building trades' strike is very near. The Carpenters' Council met last night and- instructed Its confer ence committee to ask for another conference to-day and gave the committee unlimited power. This was regarded by many and admitted by a few to mean that the carpenters bad .weakened and were will ngto give in. They are not, however, entirely responsi ble for this state of affairs. The develop ments of the past two or three days have been against them. The action of the plasterers, stonemasons and finally the painters has had much to do with overthrowing the work of the strike leaders and discouraging the men. All the unions seem to be more or less in a demoralized condition, and if the strike is lost it is expected to carry with it a disrup tion of the Building Trades Council. The stonemasons will hold a meeting to night In their hall. All unemployed men are expected to be at the meeting, as im portant business is to be discussed. The painters had their new rules sub mitted to them yesterdav, and it is said they will stop work this morning. The new rules of the bosses provide that nine hours shall constitute a day's work, and that men shall be graded and paid according to their merits. The old scale provided for a fixed rate of wages and gave the men eight hours on Saturday. A committee has been appoint ed by the painters to settle any disputes that may arise through their withdrawal from the Building Trades Council. ENGINEERS SATISFIED. Chief Arthur Says No Serious Complaints Have Been Made Lately. Chief Arthur, of the Brotherhood of Engi neers, was in the city for a short time yes terday on his way home to Cleveland. He said he was returning from an extensive trip through the South, where he found busi ness was good, and the engineers in a con tented frame of mind. The Brotherhood is very strong in that section. The traffic has been a little slow all over the country, but the engineers by taking their turns at laying off have pulled through all right. He says the number of applica tions received forpositions are not any more than usual, and by this he judges that the men have been doing fairly welL No serious complaints have been made to headquarters from any part of the United States, and there was no prospect of trouble, so far as he knew, in any section. GLASS AGENTS COMING IK. Mr. Itanney Thinks the Trade Prospects Are Very Good. Among the first of the glass agents to arrive at the Monongahela House is old man W. B. Banney, of Beaver Falls. He is one of the most successful salesmen who takes part in the local glass exhibits. He is very deaf, but he manages to hear enongh to know how to sell his wares. He remarked that his firm had been filled with orders taken last March, and since then he had loafed In the country. About 15 agents are expected, and several are already on hand. Mr. Banney thinks the prospects for business are good. A STBIKE AT DUQUESNE. Trouble Expected Over the Discharge of a Committee. The committeo that presented the Amal gamated scale to the Allegheny Bessemer Steel Company yesterday was discharged. This action on the part of the firm created great Indignation among the men. A meeting of the new lodge that has been re organized there since the trouble of last fall was held last night and a strike is expected to-day. The new lodge comprises all but about 100 of the skilled men in the mill, and they are expected to join at once. Industrial Notes. The Dallas broom factory has shut down temporarily.

It is probable that the manufacture of the Connelly gas engine will be conducted in New Castle. The capitalists interested in the enterprise are David Hickey, C. J. Kirk and J. P. H. Cunningham. The new beam mill of Carnegie, Phipps & Co., at Homestead, is under roof and the heating furnaces, machinery and other ac cessories are well under way. This mill is the largest of the kind in the world and will contain the newest and most modern ma chinery that will make it almost automatic in its working. LnTLE"XOCALS 07 INTEREST.

Dr. McAllister and Prof. Wilson Object Strongly, but All in Tain. THE YOUNG MINISTERS IN BIG DEMAND The Monongahela Presbytery of the IT. P. Church met in AArilklnsburg yesterday, and opened its arms to the suspended Covenant ers. Kevs. John A. Burnett, 'O. B. Milligan and E. M. Milligan were admitted to the ministry of tho United Presbyterian Church, provided they conformed fto its principles. This they were perfectly willing to do. The Reformed Presbyterian .con gregations of the East End and AVilkinsburg almost unanimously desired to go with' tho young ministers and they were admitted. Dr. McAllister and Prof. Wilson were there to talk about the young men's cases, but were allowed only ten minutes each. The session opened at 10 a. m., with Kev. B. A. Elliott moderator and Eev. J. D. Sands clerk." A Ietter From Mr. Burnett. After the reading of several reports, the letter of Kev. John A. Burnett was taken up. It was ns follows: Dear Fathers and Brethren: I would herebv request that vou receive me under your care as s minister of the Gospel in the United Presbyterian Church. It is unnecessary that I bring before you the causes which place me in my present position, as they are well known to you, but I briefly bring be fore you the facts in the case. I was refused ordination by the Pittsburg Pres bytery of the Reformed Presbyterlon Church be cause I failed to answer satisfactorily certain ques tions pertaining to church order. The questions did not relate to doctrine or anything fundamental to Christianity, but to the Interpretations, or the standards of the church,, in the light of certain acts of Synod, which have vitiated the testimony of the church and placed her upoa an inconsistent basis with the United States Government. The Prcbj tery not only refused to ordain me, but also revoked my license to preach within the church. I filed complaints in Synod agalnsteach of these actions of Presbytery, but the complaints weredlsmlssedandl was not given a hearing. I would therefore ask that you take such steps as you consider necessary In accordance with your church order, and with the curtesy due another court of the Lord's house, to restore my liceuse and receive mc as a minister of the gospel. I make this request believing the doctrine and order of the United Presbyterian Church and being ready for the service of Christ In furthering the interests of His Church. It was referred to a committee composed of Rev. Keld and Hutchinson and Elder Donaldson. Then followed a petition signed by 58 members of the Beformed Presbyterian Church of AVilklnsburg, ask ing for tho organization of a new U. P. con gregation, with Kev. John A. Burnett as Sastor. The petition was" presented by B. . Thompson and W. N. Haziett, two of the petitioners. It was referred to the com mittee already appointed. The committee retired to act on the questions. The iSast Endcrs' Fight Opened; The application of 67 members of the East End B. P. Church was next received. Kev. O. B. Milligan, the former pas tor, spoke on the subject, and asked for his own admission in the U. P. Church. These petitions were also sent to the com mittee. Bev. Dr. McAllister and Prof. Wilson pre sented a paper authorizing them to repre sent the Beformed Presbyterian Church at the Monongahela Presbyterian meeting for the purpose of protecting the property of the East End K. P. Church. It was referred to the same committee as the petitions. The two visitors thought they ought to be allowed to go before the committee and ex plain matters lu full, but the Presbytery was of a different mind. A call from the Steubenville church for Rev. E. M. Milligan was laid on the table be cause the latter desired first to come up for trial before the Presbytery. The body then took a recess. Kev. Dr. McAllister in the afternoon pre sented a written protest against the action of the Presbytery In entertaining the appli cation of the East End members, and pray ing the Presbytery to refuse to recognize the petition until the members should renounce all claims to the church property. The protest was read and referred to the Committee on Petitions. S. AV". Douthett and S. B. Hart then preached their trial sermons, and were licensed to.preach. Taken Into the Fold. The report of the Committee on Petitions waSithen called for. Kev. AV. J. Beld, chair man of the committee, said the committee respectfully recommended the acceptance of the AAllkinsburg applicants for admission from tho K. P. to the U. P. Church, and ap nointcd a committee, consistlne of the Kev. Sir. McCrory and three of his elder", to or- ftnlzo the church on next Monday night, hey also reported that no reason could be found why J. A. Burnett should not be received into the church and his license re stored, and recommended that In event of Mr. Burnett's signifying his willingness to teach the doctrines of the U. P. Church and render due obedience in tho Lord to the ecclesiastical courts of the church he bo admitted and relicensed. The committee further recommended that the individual members of the East End Church who had applied to be received Into membership in the U. P. Chuich bo admitted, and ap- Sointed a committee consisting of J. K. cCluskln, Samuel Mahood, David Blair and Dr. J. G. Temple to meet at a place designated by the petitioners on Monday evenings, July 13, at 7:45, to organize the church. "Regarding the cases of the Rev. O. B. Mil ligan and E. M. Milligan," said Mr. Reld, "we, the committee, find that the young brothers in question were not deposed on account of any criminal offence or immoral ity upon their part, but purely upon a mat ter oi political dissent. In obedience to their request, wo recommend that in event of the brothers signifying their willingness to abide by the laws governing the U. P. Church, they be received into the church and their suspension removed." Mr. Reid sat down and Dr. McAllister rose and asked that he and Prof. AVilson be f ranted the privilege of saying a few words efore tho report of the committee was adopted. J. D. Sands, clerk of the Presby tery, told Dr. McAllister that neither he nor Prof. AVilson were ablo to tell the conven tion anything which the committee's report did not cover. Dr. McAllister, however, re fused to be sat on, and persisted so strenu ously that the courtesies of the house wore extended to himself and Prof. AVilson for ten minutes each. Prof. AA'ilson came for ward with an immense roll of paper. Dr. McAllister cautioned the Presbytery to be careful in thejr action regarding tho East End church prop erty. He said the civil courts were yet open. A "respectable minority" holding to the principles of the mother church could hold tho church property, and cited as an illustration the decision of the courts In the Detroit U. P. Church, where the minority were lately given the church property. He then proceeded to find flaws in the petition handed in by the members of the East End ohurch, claiming they had applied for ad mission as a body. To this several ministers objocted, claiming it was not the case. Dr. McAllister grew angry and said he had a verbatim copy of the petition, and that they had said as "a body." Mr. Reid said such was not tho language of the petition received by the committee. , Dr. McAllister Is Vigorously Hissed. Dr. McAllister fairly shrieked as he sprang toward Rev. Mr. Reid: "Then your petition has been changed for a purpose." BA storm of hisses from the rear of the house greeted this outburst and Dr. .McAl lister tried to smooth matters by claiming a misunderstanding. Dr. Reid said: "I hope my life-long friend, Dr. McAllister will not think hard if I Bay something that w ill hurt his feelings, for I must say it. He, as an intelligent man, knows than any property of a congregation which is chartered under the straight Prcs byterial law cannot be taken by the major ity. AVhy is he here! I very much suspect there is some irregularity in this charter which he is afraid oi and lie has come here to throw obstructions in the way. I object to Dr. McAllister or anyone else using this ec clesiastical court as a place in which to ac complish any personal ends." The report was adopted and Dr. McAllister then arose and began to read a notice that they would complain to tho U. P. Synod, but Mr. Keid told him that he could do nothing but petition the Synod, as ho was not a mem ber of the U. P. Chuich and they would not recognize him. Mr. McAllister sat down, saying: "If I can't come at you one way I will in another." "We will be glad to see yon when you come," said Mr. Keld. Rev. E. M. Milligan was presented with his call from Steubenville and accepted it. The Presbytery then adjourned to meet at Shadyside on tho second Tuesday of Sep tember. THE NINTH CHURCH. U. P. Allegheny Presbytery Adopts Some of tho K. P. Children, De Haven is now a name marking an epoch in the history of Allegheny Presbytery of PITTSBTTEG- DISPATCH the V. P. Church, for it was in. the Allison Park Church of that denomination at that place yesterday that four ex-Covenanter ministers and one congregation were re ceived nnder the protection of the United Presbyterian ordinances and faith. The meeting waB opened at 10 o'elock in the morning by the Moderator, Bev. B. H. Park, of Vallencia, who, after an invocation for a divine blessing, called the order of business. There being a vacancy in the pulpit of the Mt. Nebo Church, and that congregation having made strong demands for the station ing there as nastor tho Bev. D. K. Imbrier. Presbytery cheerfully acquiesced and that reverend gentlemen win nereaiter minister to that flock as he has done In the past. After a substantial lunch was enjoyed in the grove near the church the meeting was reconvened to hear and dispose of the appli cations of Kev. J. K. J. Milligan and of his Allegheny congregation of about 200 com municants, as well as the applications of J. S. T. Milligan, of Kansas, and Kevs. Teas and McChurkin, Reformed Presbyterians until' the late unpleasantness. These important measures were put into proper shape for action by a committee, which having re ported, the reception of .the petitions was made positive by unanimous assent. Kev. J. S. T. Milligan is the father of Rev. J. R. J. Milligan, and he will soon be transferred to the Kansas Presbytery of the U. P. Church. The new congregation will be organized in the Second ward, Allegheny, principally by a committee having that duty to perform, and it will be known as the Ninth U. P. Church of Allegheny. LITTLE PROSPECT OF BONDS. Controller Morrow's Plan for a Popular Vote Not Likely to Be Adopted Many Smaller Contractors Will Go Under as a Result. The adoption and application of Controller Morrow's plan for a popular vote on the bond question is not likely to occur very soon, if ever. Councils have adjourned for the summer and no ordinance can be passed for several months except at a special meet ing. As far as can be learned no effort will be made by Council.) to pass any such meas ure. The communication of the Controller was referred to the Finance Committee Mon day afternoon and there It is likely to stay. Controller Morrow was asked about the matter yesterday afternoon and said: "I have notified Councils of the condition of affairs and there my duty ends. I will make no further move In the matter, but time will demonstrate the correctness of my position. It Is a serious question to set lightly aside. All over the city numerous contractors have put money and time into street work. The city cannot collect money to pay them nnder the curative law In less than 18 months. There is but one result. All these contractors, with the exception of one firm, will go under unless they get their money. Tney will take the last resort and go into court, making considerable more ex pense." Contractor Evan Jones said: "The Con troller has outlined the proper course. The contractors must get their money either by the way indicated by the Controller or through court decisions." James Booth, of Booth & Flinn said: "Con troller Morrow's plan Is the most feasible one that could be devised. A bonded in debtedness could bo paid off so gradually that the people do not feel the heavy burden of a sudden raise in the millage." GETTING D0AVN 10 W0EK. The World's Fair. Commissioners Will Or ganize To-Day. The World's Pair Commission for the State will organize at Harrisburg to-day with Gov ernor Pattison as Chairman. Commission ers Pat Foley, J. M. Guffey, A. J. Barr, A. G. Boenigk and George N. Riley left for the Capital last evening. None of them knew what would be done. A Secretary, who will probably be Thomas Jones, of Harrisburg, and an agent to represent the commission will be-elected. The preliminary work will also be mapped out. Superintendent Pitcalrn surprised every body by declining to serve, and AV. II. Barnes, Receiver for the Allegheny Valley road, was appointed to represent the rail roads. Mr. Pitcairn felt that he hadn't the time to give to the work. Herbert Welsh, of Philadelphia, also declined, and Colonel AVilllam llasson, of OH City, was selected to succeed him. None of the local Commis sioners know anything about him. Mr. Barnes is a good man. Complaint has been made that the educa tional, scientific and engineering features have been overlooked by the Governor. The State is full of first-class colleges with repre sentative men on their staffs of teachers, but none were taken. It Is claimed in mak ing up the commission the Governor paid off a lot of political obligations. WITH THE POLITICIANS. N. S. Williams in the Judgeship Fight to Stay DalzeU at Home. N. S. Williams is pushing his canvass for the judgeship, and he thinks his chances are very good. He remarked yesterday that he was in, the fight to stay, and he could see no reason why he should not strive for one of the offices. The impression is strong that Messrs. AVilliams and Fetterman will give Judges Kennedy and McClung a very tough argument. It is generally conceded that Porter can take care of himself. Congressman DalzeU has returned from the East. He repeated what he had said to a Dispatch correspondent in Philadelphia, that he understood the league piesidency belonged to the western part ol the State. He and his friends are doing some great hustling, and It won't be his fault if he is de feated. Frank Case will take up the cudgel in the east, and keep up the fight in Jack Robinson's stronghold. Dick Quay came up from Beaver yester day, but ho was not throwing around any party secrets. TBAMPED BY A H0ESE. Serious Runaway in Allegheny A Rail roader Has a Foot Smashed. A runaway horse seriously injured two ladies in Allegheny last evening. The acci dents of the day are not numerous, but they are painful. Here is the list: Fdhs ahd Ambachkk Mrs. Fnhs, 77 years old, and hor daughter, Mrs. John Ambacher, were run over by a frightened horse in Alle gheny and were badly injured. The animal Is owned by K. A. Stephenson, and taking fright at an electric car broke away with the above result. Mason Harry Mason had his foot badly crushed at the Union depot last evening. He was employed to drop passenger cars down under the shed, and his loot was caught between a car and a depot backstop. It will have to be amputated. Mallet Michael Malley, an employe of the Fifth avenue line, was struck hy a car and his leg was broken in two places. OVERCOME BY PAEALYSIS. Thought to Have Been Partly Caused by the Heat. Robert McDowell, a foreman at Bryce's Southside glass works, was overcome by a paralytic stroke yesterday afternoon and will probably die. He was at work at the time, and the stroke is said to be" partially duo to the heat. Ho was taken to his home near Sidney and South Nineteenth streots unconscious, and up to a late hour last night was still insensible. McDowell wus well-known on the South side, and has for a number of years been a prominent member of the South Fourteenth Street U. P. Church. Enormous Death Kate for June. The Health Bureau reports 630 deaths dur ing the month of June, which is; the largest known for years. Of these deaths 6 were from typhoid fevor, 16 from Inanition, 35 from cerebro spinal meningitis, 2 from cholera morbus, 2S from convulsions, 32 from pneumonia, 55 from cholera infantum, 7 irom phthisic pulmonalis, 6 from congestion of the brain and 47 among Infants from various causes. Low Exposition Bates. The Pittsburg Passenger Agents' Associa tion held a regular meeting at the Baltimore and Ohio oflices yesterday. Manager John ston appeared on behalf of the Exposition, and it was decided to repeat the liberal rates of last year. On special days for popular ex cursions 1 cent per mile will be charged within a certain radius of the city. Fishing Clubs Moving. The Cresson Fishing Club left yesterday for Slbern in the Muskoka district. The Metropolitan Club will leave on Thursday for the same place. Committees represent ing glass workers are out looking for camp ing sites along the local rivers. Will Enforce the Liquor Law. Chief Brown says the provisions of the new liquor law will be rigidly enforced by the police from this day on. This means a breaking up of the Jug trade, since whole-, salers must sell beer in pint bottles. WEDNESDAY, JULY FIRST RATE. SHOWING Made by Many Applicants for Pro motion to the High School.

Costello was seen to push the boy under the water and then give him a shove out into the deep part of the stream.

CHASM THE CHIEFS. W. J. Howard Asks by What Eight They Exercise Their Powers. HE ALSO ATTACKS THE CHARTER An Attempt Will Be Made to Prove That It Is Unconstitutional. ATTORNEY GEXEEAL HEXSEL CALLED IN Quite a sensation was caused in already troubled Pittsburg last night when it be came known that Mayor Gourley and W. J. Howard, of the Howard bill fame, were trying to oust the chiefs of departments. A telegram from Harrisburg brought the in formation, as follows: "It Is stated on ap parently good authority that Mayor Gourley and AV. J. Howard, of Pittsburg, will make early application to Attorney General Ilensel for a writ on the heads of depart ments of Pittsburg to show cause why they exercise the functions of their offices. It will be contended that the charter under which they are operating Is unconstitutional and that they should bo ousted In conse quence." The idea that such a thing wonld be at tempted created consternation among poli ticians. An attempt was made to see AV. J. Howard, but as he has no permanent home in the city he could not be found. In fact, it was stated ho was out of town. What the Mayor Has to Say. Mayor Gourley was found at his home; but was only slightly surprised when he heard the burden of the telegram. He declared he was not doing anything of the kind, but did not know what Mr. Howard was doing. He said: "I must say it is a matter of news to me. I never thought of going at the heads of de partments in that way. AH I know of the matter is this. On last Thursday Mr. How ard came in to see me at my ofllce. We talked on matters pertaining to the charter and discussed methods for finding just what ideas the charter intended to carry out. Mr. Howard was very anxious to have a decision as to the exact meaning of the sentence, 'The Mayor shall have supervision over the chiefs of the depart ments.' Mr. Howard said he had some matter to submit for the subject, but as we were talking the messenger rapped on the door. AVe did not pay any attention to him, but he rapped again and again. Mr. Howard, thinking he was taking up too much of my time, then went out. AVhen ho reached the door he found that it was Senator Flinn who waited admis sion and then both Mr. Flinn and Mr. Howard come back. AVe then sat in my office and talked for fully any hour about thobills that Pittsburg had before the last Legislature. AVe also discussed street paving and the recent troubles over Treasurer Bardsley in Philadelphia. Further Conversation Wanted. "Finally.Mr. Howard went out, saying that he wanted to talk further with me respecting the charter. He said he was going away, but promised to come to see mo on Satur day. He did not come back, however, and I believe he has gone out of the city. At least I ha ve not heard anything fromhim since, and I am not connected with this action. I cannot understand how my name comes to be mentioned with it. There must be some foundation for the telegram, and It may be that Mr. Howard is making arrangements to ask Attorney General Hen sel for such a writ. I do not believe he had done it yet, for Mr. Howard, being almost a total stranger in Pittsburg, would likely try to gather the ideas of a number of other per sons besides himself." An effort was at once made to find what the various chiefs thought of Mr. Howard's late move, but none of them could be seen. A call was made at Chief Brown's residence, but that gentleman was sick and refused to be interviewed. Robert C. Elliot, Chief of the Department of Public Chanties, was out seeing some of his constituents and could not be found, while at Chief Bigelow's High land' avenue home there was not the least sign of life.

A call was made on Sergeant Stewart last evening to find out what changes. If any, would be made. "I don't think there will be any changes," said he; "I like Pittsburg and would like to re main, but cannot tell what will be done." "How does It affect you 7" "I cannot tell, only I am a citizen now. I received ray discharge, and those for the rest of the force, several days ago, and will distribute them to-night. To-morrow we will be at work the same as nsnal, but as citizens, or farmers, or whatever you choose to call us.

Nearly Nine Millions of Dollars In premiums were collected from policy holders in 1890 by the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company, and only $76 96 was lost through its agents, less than one thousandth of 1 per cent. "With such fidelity in the collection of policy holders' money, with a higher inter est rate, with a lower death rate and a vastly more economical management, and doing a purely United States business (it does not write a dollar in foreign countries), it is no wonder that the Korthwestem Mutual is able to do far better by its policy holders than any other company in the wona.
