HYMEN'S ALTAR SHAKEN.
Hatters Which Occupied the Attention of the Cosrt and
Est Yesterday.
Andret? Todt, lichael Sabol and George
Eusnak, Slavs, but natives of Hungary,
have attracted more of the world's,ittention
than they expected when they lelt Hun
gary. They were convicted last February
of the murder of Michael Quinn on Kew
Year's Day at the lidgar Thomson Stel
"Works in Braddock. They were defended
by Attorney Archibald Blakeley. After
Judge Stowc sentenced them to hang a mo
tion for a new trial was made and over
ruled. Mr. Ulakcly then appealed to the
Supreme Court and the case i as argued in
June, District Attorney Johnston's argu
ment on the occasion being his last. The
Supreme Court affirmed the proceedings
and then notice was given of an appeal to
be taken to the Pardon Board. The Gov
ernor was notified of this step and so no
death warrant issued, and the case will be
heard by the board on the 22d of next
month.
The points that will be submitted to the
board are: First, that Andrew Todt was so
drunk at the time of the riot that'he knew
nothing of it at the time. Being without
money and ignorant of the English
language, he was at the time of the trial un
able to make his defense clear. The fact of
Todt's intoxication at the time is said to
have been abundantly proven since by a
number of witnesses. A commutation to
life imprisonment will be asked in Todt's
case, as drunkenness reduces the grade of
the crime.
GEOBGF. EtTSXATC HAS A DOUM.E.
In the cae of George Rusnak, but one
witne identified him as having been on
the ground and striking the man killed.
Ten witnesses swore that Rusnak was three
miles away at the time of the murder,
visiting a friend at the Carrie furnace.
The jury, however, refused to give credence
to the tcstimonv. Since sentence was pro
nounced, the defense has learned that there
" 8 a Bohemian at 'work at the Edgar
Thomson Steel Works at the time of the
riot who resembled Runak so closely that
each was frequentlv mistaken for the other.
It is aliened that the Bohemian was in the
light up to his eyes, and when it was over
went to his boarding house and said:
"I laid one man out, and when he was
knocked down he rolled over like a rabbitt."
"When the Bohemian heard that the mur
derers were beinc sought he skipped and is
still missing. The defenss has taken the
testimony of many witnesses who knew
both Rusnak and the Bohemian, and
they swear they could scarce distin
guish them when not together. About
15 Braddock people, who knew the Bohem
ian well, but did not know liusnak, were
taken into the area of the county jail and
the three prisoners were brought out The
Braddock people at once and simultaneously
J minted out Runack and said there was no
loubt as to the very close resemblance he
bore to the missing Bohemian. It is be
lieved accordingly that the man who swore
he saw Rusnak strike the fatal blow was
honestly mistaken and that the ten who
swore to support an alibi told the truth.
BUILDrXG UP AX AMM.
The defense also has the testimony of a
little bov, Michael Giba, whose mother
lives nt the Carrie furnace. The boy says
he knows Rusnak and that he was at wit
ness mother's house for some time on Xew
Year's Day, talked for some time and then
went up oh the hill. This is after-discovered
e idence, and Mr. Blakely expects to
obtain an ab-olute pardon for Rusnak.
Michael Sabol admits that he was engaged
in the riot, but denies that he struck the
man who was killed, and as the only wit
ness against sanoi is the one nhotestined
to Rusnak having struck the fatal blow, it
is argued that the force of his evidence is
brokeu. So it is hoped that Sabol's sen
tence will lie commuted.
It has already been noted the Slavonian
foeictieof this country are taking a lively
intresi in the matter and o also are the
Hungarian societies in Xew York. Thev
are said to be composed of highly intellf
pent people and s-oric of them "not onlv
6tand well in busijess and social circles,
but have abundant means. These societies
propose to spend money to see the trio get
a square -how, and they have issued peti
tions printed both in Slavonian and En
glish, asking lor leniency to the convicted
men.

from the bed of the
Allegheny river,
formed a bank show

The contractors who

for the foundation of the center pier. This
was an immense number of large, irregular-
shaped stones, piled up around the
old pier. Against these the sand
digger who had been employed in
the work could make no headway.
For the purpose of removing these rocks,
the contractors secured the services of two
of the Philadelphia Gas Company's expert
divers. It was the appearance ot these men,
encased in their clumsy, unwieldly suits of
armor, as they descended into the muddy
depths and were afterward drawn up with
their unearthly-looking big-eyed heads,
glistening and dripping with water, that
drew and held the watching crowds on the
bridge above.

day, that some years ago, when the steamer
John A. Wood was sunk in 25 feet of water in
the Mississippi river, he watched the divers
going down, and thought when he first saw
them that the John A. might stay at the
bottom before he would put on one of those
things and go down, but after a few days,
when the men were worn out, he overcame
his fears and went do?n and worked under
water like one to the manner born.

present suspended. David Hohenstatt, the
diver who was down yesterday, said to a
Dispatch reporter, after his heavy
helmet and other accoutrements had
been removd, that this was
the most difficult job that he had yet under
taken, owing to the irregularities in the
bed of the river, which the dredge boat had
left full of holes and nitfalls. Whenasked
if the heavy diving suit did not impede hi s
movements and hamper him in his efforts,
he said:
"While a diver encased in his suit weighs
about 500 pounds when above water, and
can just manage to drag himself about,
when under the water and with the air
pumps at work he works with almost as
much freedom and ease as anv workman on"

which prevents us from seeing and we have
to feel our way about. We have an elabor
ate code ot signals by means of which we
communicate with those above on the boat.

"The work is exhausting, and makes ns
very drowsy. We stay under water from
three to five hours at a time. There is"no
particular danger connected with our occu

when groping around, gets tangled up and
rattled and loses his Tieod, in which case he
is liable to give the wrong signals."

Are Gradually Getting It Back at the Elec

ATcnue, Corner rifth Street, Through
the Same Treatment That Mr. Geo. Hel
mjn Itecciied.
Very few people have any idea of the
number who were rendered partially or to
tally deaf by that terrible disease la grippe
aud to fully realize the facts it is only
necessary to observe the vast number who
arc treating for deafness at the Electrical
and Medical Institute, at 442 Penn avenue,
corner Fifth street, who were piompted by
the article giving an account oi the good for
tune of Mr. George Helman.ofManorstation,
w hich he afterward corroborated by his own
personal letter to the public. Thispublica
tion caused others to follow and partake of
the same treatment and rpinifB n
everyone of them is realizing a benefit,
while some of the results are simply mar
velous, as for instance in the case of Mr. P.
J. Quin n, of Uazelwood, who is emploved
at the Glcnwood cemetery. He has recov
ered from that point where it was necessary
to conduct all conversation in writing, and
in nine days he can understand ordinary
conversation distinctly. Others who could
notjienr the loudest sound can now hear
their names when called fn a clear tone at a
distance oi three leet behind them. These
results have been accomplished within two
or three weeks.
When it is taken into consideration that
numerous articles have appeared in the pa
pers iroin prominent business men and oth
ers, both in and out of the city, regarding
their remarkable success in the various
chronic diseases, together with the reputa
tion they have gained in restoring lost hear
ing, it certainly bears out what Mr. George
S. Sanford, a traveling salesman, says of
them, that "their treatment is a godsend to
humanity."

MORE PENN BANK WORK.
Keportofthe Auditor Kejpirdinc the Second
Account of the Assignee J. O. Brown's
Claim Allowed That of Jacob II.
Walter Befnsed.
The report of Thomas D. Carnahan, audi
tor of the second account of Henry Warner,
assignee of the Penn Bank, has been filed.
The" balance on hand is 67,179 79, which
give creditors whose accounts have been ap
proved a dividend of i)i per cent. They
may secure a further dividend, but it will
not exceed 1 per cent. The claim of J. O.
Brown is one of the interesting parts of the
report. Mr. Brown borrowed from the
bank prior to Decembcr,1883, 57,500, giving
his note and 75 shares of Penn Bank stock as
security. After the failure Mr. Brown
found his note at the Freehold Bank, but
his stock, which was worth 125 or S130 per
share when deposited, had disappeared.
Some time this year the missing stocks were
discovered. They had been hypothecated
by the late W. IT. Riddle as part security
ior a 550,000 loan from the First National
Bank. The auditor decides that Mr. Brown
is entitled to the market value of his stock
at the time given to Mr. Riddle, S9,52o. He
is allowed out of the funds now on hand the
amount of the first dividend, T per cent;
also the present dividend of 4J per cent.
Regarding the claim of Jacob H. Walter
the report says:
Jacob H. "Walter appearod before the Au
ditor and presented a claim for $3S,M0 39
with interest from May 28, 18S4. The hooks
of the Penn Bank and his own bank book
show that on Slay 26. 1SS1, Mr. Walter was in
debted to the bank in the sum of $9,281 61.
Mr. Walter says that his account, as it ap
pears on the books of tho bank, and In his
own bank book, is wrong. His cxnlanation
of tho matter is that in his bank book he is
charged with the sum of $43,225 which ought
not to be there. The samo clwirge appears
in the bank's books, but in two amounts
one as or January 2, lsst, "check 43,220,' and
tho other as of the same date, and immedi
ately below it "5." By striking olftho charge
of $43,225 ngainst-hlin, wo have a balance in
his lavor of $33,910 39. The Auditor has
quotod the testimony ot Mr. Walter at some
length, and has done so becauso he purposes
to rest his decision of the case mainly upon
that testimony. Mr. Walter claims two divi
dends on the sum, $33,940 33. When the
Auditor turns to his account with tho
bank he finds that instead of the bank being
indebted to him, ho is indebted to tho bank
in the sum of $",2S4 61. Mr. Walter savs the
ohaige ot $43,225 ought not to bo there. "Whyt
Because Mr. Kiddle and he wero engaged In
a scheme to decolvo the directors of the
bank, and no money passed to him in tho
particular transaction. The scheme went
through, the bank directors wore made be
lieve that thev had $77,425 more than they
really had, and Kiddle was thus given a little
breathing spell in which to devise new
schemes to defraud tho bank, but he forgot
bU IU&.U i;iii DUl IT unci.
Mr. Walter's entire claim is refused, the
report stating in conclusion that "the aud
itor is of the opinion that Mr. Walter is not
entitled to have his claim recognized and
.thus share in the distribution."
TJCHatimeasthe
drummers did
have at Ross Park
yesterday! Their
presence necessi
tated a new list of
rules to be talked
up. Any man who
talked business or
attempted to sell
the banana man a
silk apron was
ejected from the
grounds. Every
man was com
pelled to wear a
perpetual smile so
his wife or sweet
heart would not
catch him beaming
on anyone in par
ticular and accuse
him of forgetting
that he was not out among his customers or
his customers' daughters. Lemonade and
water were furnished on the grounds while
coffee grains and cloves were barred. None
of the drummers were allowed to approach
nearer than ten feet to the little stream be
cause of the great number of minnows there
and the thousands of wonderful fish stories
iable to be suggested by a sight of them.
1 In fact it was a drummers' day when a
drummer was not a drummer, but a common
mortal with his human nature awakened by
the beauties of the woods, and green grass,
the music and the dance. The drummers
found themselves in the position of the
robber who tried to rob the robbers' caves
they were all too slick for each other so
joined hands in having a good time, busi
ness being entirely banished from their
minds.
HOW THEY ENJOYED THEMSELVES.
The attendance was not large, but those
present seemed to enjoy themselves im-
I menscly. The coming drummers took great
delight in the merry-go-round, while the
ladies played croquet aud danced, or
watched their friends play baseball or run
.foot races. The big swings came in for a
share of the fun, and of course some of the
younger generation of drummers took ad
vantage of the opportunity to stroll and
talk moonshine to their best girls even if
it was broad daylight.
The ball game which began at 3 o'clock
between the Pittsburg Drummers and Com
mermal Travelers was decidedly interesting.
It was close and exciting all through, and
there was just hitting enough to keep them
busy chasing the ball. The Drummers hae
a regular team and the Travelers was a
picked nine. Still it was a question which
played the better ball, though the Drummers
won. Following was the makeup of the
teams: Drummers Adams, c; Caughey, p;

T&T',MI!N-DOING GOOD TIME.
When the ball game was finished
races were called up. The course was one
of those indefinite ones that starts' at the
mark and ends at a big tree. A strong
guesser put the distance between 50 and 100
yards. It was 100 yards for the fat mon
and about 50 for the lean men. In the fat
men's race a man had to weigh at least 160
pounds. James Klingensmith, won the fat
men's race by a very small margin. One of
the contestants started out in his stocking
feet, but stepped on an acorn and stopped
to nurse his foot. The lean men had to do
somewhat better time. All men weighing
over 130 pounds were barred. Frank Fmlay,
one of the baseball men, won handily.
The drummers did not seem much in
clined to listen to speeches, but really
enjoyed the only two that were made.
William Smith made a short address and
introduced A. J. Edwards, assistant Post
master of Pittsburg. Mr. Edwards made
a most interesting speech, and his only mis
take was that he told two stories, which his
extreme youth prevented the possibility of
his invention. They were both good stories,
however, and would go with a rush at any
place but a real, live drummers' picnic.
The drummers and their friends, after
enjoying an elegant lunch, continued to
dance several hours after supper time. They
now look forward to their next annual out
ing, which they hope will be as successful
as the hrst.

ing the Electronathic Institute.
Testimony From Prominent Men and
Women of the Notaole Work Per
formed for Them.
"The physicians of the Electropathic In
stitute at 507 Penn avenue are deserving of
the highest commendation, and the perfect
confidence of the public," said Mrs. Mary
Roberts, of No. 274G Oakley alley. "Their
treatment and cures of what are seemingly
incurable cases .are indeed wonderful. My
case is but one of the many who have been
cured by them, and I take great pleasure in
making a statement for the benefit of others
suffering as I was.
"I had nervous prostration and symptoms
of apoplexy. Three of my brothers were
paralyzed, and I feared very much that I
would be a victim of the same trouble. My
heart was very weak, and I was afraid of
heart failure. I was sick all the time"; never
felt what I would call real welL I had no
appetite, and was so terribly nervous that I
could not sleep. My whole system seemed
to be run down,andilost in weight steadily.
I thought I neer would get well.as ordinary
physicians seemed utterly unable to cope
with my trouble. I grew worse instead of
better.
"Under the advice of friends Iwentto the
Electropathic Institute and began treatment.
I am to-day perfectly well. Every symptom
of my trouble has disappeared, and I owe it
all to the skillful treatment received from
these physicians."

Thomas McGreevey, of Port Ferry.
Mr. Thomas McGreevey, residing at Port
Perry, in speaking of his recovery, said:
"Catarrh and catarrhal deafness made my
life "miserable. The discbarges from my
ears were large and most distressing. My
head ached all "the time. I had stomach
trouble and my food distressed me. My
nervous system was completely shattered.
Thomas McOreccey, Port Perry, Pa.
"I had about given tip all hope of getting
cured, when my attention was called to the
Electropathio Institute, of 507 Penn ave
nue. "I called on the physicians in charge, and
after making a careful diagnosis of my case,
pronounced it curable. The result has am
ply verified their verdict. My deafness,
catarrh, stomach trouble and nervous affec
tion have all disappeared. In fact, stating
it briefly, I am cured."
IT IS CONVINCING.

suffered terrible pains, both sharp and dull.
It felt as though a band of iron wns tightly
bound around it. I could scarcely speak
without the effort causing me pain. To
swallow caused, me great suffering. The
act of chewing my food was attended with
almost unbearable pain.
"Together with the above trouble I suf
fered gieatly from neuralgic pains, supple-'
menieu oy nervous prostration, until i De
camosobad that I shared the belief of my
friends that I would never regain mvhealth.
I placed myself under the-enre of the phv

am enjoying as good health to-day as ever
before in my life, and have not an ache or

treatment as applied bv the nhysiclans of

"The first treatment I leoelved enabled me
to lift mv arm, something I had not done for
six months before. I improved gradually
