The Commissioner of Labor in Ohio Sug gested for the Presidency of the federation. PHILLIPSBURG MIXERS STILL SOLID. General Drift cf Industrial Matters in and Aroma Pittshurj. President J. B. Eae, of the United Mine "Workers of America, who ha? been address ing mass meetings of miners in this district, spent yesterday in the city resting. ffe'has already attended meetings at Venetia, Shire Oaks and Vest Elizabeth, and will address the miners of Banksville this evening. President John Costello, of District 5, will nceompany him. 3Ir. Kae was found at Hotel Boyer yesterday afternoon, reflecting over the reported rebellion of the miners in the bituminous district. "I wish you would say for me," said he, "that that "report is false from beginning to end. It is said the officers ot our organiza tion have visited that district for the pur pose of keeping the miners from going into the K. of L. I think the readers of The Dispatch are pretty well acquainted with the object of our visit to the Clearfield dis trict. There are certain inequalities there and a few violations on the part of the operators, which we went to straighten out. As fur the miners there flocking to the K. of lu, the wish of some one in that district is father to the thought. We have a few people out there who may be dissatisfied. We find that the case everywhere. But I am sure the rank and file of our organiza tion in that district have no thought of such a break. SO FEAR OF A KEVOI.T. "The miners of Clearfield, Center, Cam bria, Jefferson, Somerset, Clarion. Blair and lluntincdon counties are not in the demoral ized and disorganized condition that they have been pictured, and we have no fear of them leaving us. Woare just gettingtbc or ganization there in shape where we expect to be able to establish the dead wood scale, and it would not be very likely that they would desert us after that has been secured. "Well, Mr. Hae, do you consider the Fede ration of Labor has accomplished every thing that was expected of it when it was formed?" was asked. "So: 1 can hardly say I do. More than that, the present policy of shoving any par ticular traac to the front on any issue and making it the butt of all the opposition that capital is able to muster together will never bring success to the Federation." "Is it to be understood, then, that the miners will not submit again to being desig nated bj the Federation as the trade to make a fight for eight hours?" Well, I will not answer that directly, but I believe the miners will adopt a wiser policy in the future. The miners will cer tainly not submit again to such a premature announcement of their intentions. The operators w ill not have such a long notice in advance of the next movement, nor so much time in which to prepare for us." "Is there any truth in the statement that you are a candidate for the Presidency of the American Federation of Labor?" "None whatever. I have no aspiration in that line and will not be a candidate. If I hae the privilege of nominating the next President of the Federation I would name Hon. John McBride. the Com missioner of Labor in Ohio. He could do more to bring the great labor organizations of the country together, and thus do mote to benefit laDor, tnan any other living man 1 Know. 1 nope lie will ue ... .,?J . .f .L. -.,-..., ., the next President of the Federation.' "Well, Mr. Hae, the friends of Mr. Gomp erswill say after reading this btatement that you aie an enemy of his." BAE DECLARES FOR M'BRIDE. "There is no personal matter in this what ever, and I hope no one will think there is. I simply mean that I believe Mr. McBriae is the best man for the position. I am looking to the future good of labor when I say what I do. 1 do not know that McBrltlo would ac cept the office It only pays $1,500 a year at present, but it certainly would pay the trades unions of the country to make it worthy of his acceptance by raising tho sal ary to $2,530 or $3,000. "Have you any objections, Mr. Rae, to give vour opinion on the political contest in Ohio?" "As an individual I am always free to ox press an opinion, and especially on a matter so important to miners." "Whom do you think will De elected Gov ernor?" "McKinley. The questions at issue will be pretty well understood before the campaign is over. The people of Ohio cannot afford to do otherwise than elect McKinley." "What will be the attitudo of tho miners in the contest?" "We will be strictly neutral. Our mem bership is very large in Ohio, made up perhaps of nearly an equal num ber of Republicans nnd Democrats, with a goodly number of People's party men. You can see, therefore, how in judicious it would be lorns to be other than neutral. No oflicer, I feel sure, will either spend his time or use his position in helping either party. Tho miners are verv Jealous on matters of this kind and would resent any attempt to misuse office or power. "What truth is there of a deal between W. T. Lewis, John P Jones and John Nugent with the Republicans?" NO KNOWLEDGE OF ANT DEAL. "I have no knowledge of it whatever. Both President Jones and Vice President Nugent have mado an emphatic denial. Jones is quite a humorist and if ho met someone unusually curious to know what he was going to do as a Republican ho may have told him a very sensational story. But President Jones is a very shrewd young man, of much ability and promise. No one I am sure, would be more likely to see that li wouia oe a great mistake to bring tho office of the commissioner of labor into the canvass. There is no man in Ohio so popular with the miners as John McBride. I am sure that Presidmt Jones will actprudentinllv. It he should think it necessary to tender his services to the Republican party in Ohio, he will do so in harmony with the rules of our organ izutiou." "What didyou mean then when you said that the people of Ohio could not do other than elect McKinley? "The issue before. our peoplo are national. The tariff in fact is tho issue. A protectivo tariff makes highor wages possible. The tariffand efficient organization would make higher wages a certainty. Dusiness is suffi ciently disturbed. The defeat of McKinley means demoralization. The people oi Ohio cannot afford to disrupt the business of the country." , AN INDIGNANT OFFICIAL. Master Workman Dempioy Replies to Man ager Gov. Master Woikman Dempsey, of D. A. 3, If. ofL., is very indignant at the statement made by Manager Gow, of Armstrong Bros. & Co.'s cork factory. He said yesterday: "Mr. Gow undertakes to say that his firm has not interlered with our affairs since tho strike was settled. I havo it froth reliable authority that orders have been issued to tho effect that any employe known to visit our headquarters will oe. discharged, and that one -voung lady wns dismissed on thoso grounds. "He further states that they are making no inquiry as to wbether their people are In the union or not. lie does not need to, for ho compelled every one who returned to work alter the strike to sign a paper binding tnem to sever tneir connection with our union, ana l nave several copies or the paper in my possession. Mr. Gow seems;to take SDecial pride in breaking up unions, but our turn may yet come. He claims' to have 1)00 people employed. I know that is not so, lor at feast two floors of the factory are not in operation at all, and 900 hands is their limit when they are running full." Locomotive Engineers in Town.

Robert Johnston was in the crowd of nickcy's friends, and was taking an active part in the effort to get Hickey away from the officers. The officers heard him repeatedly crv out: "Someone lend mo a knire or a revolver. Oh, if I only had a knife, I'd get Hickey loose!"

A current of electricity from an electric light wire nearly killed 9-year-old John Sabilli last evening. The wires connecting the lamp at the steps on the Liberty street end of the Washington street bridge with the light on the Washington street end are attached to tho bridge at a point near tho latter street They are on a level with the floor of the bridge and within easy reach of any person incautious enough to. touch them. Young Sabilli, with two other boys, were on the bridge last evening. One of them put his hand on the wire, but took it away again on a man named White calling out to him of the danger. As' he spoke Sabilli ut tered a cry, White looking around saw the lad with his body through the girder and his hand clutching the w ire. He was immedi ately rescued, his hand with difficulty being removed from the wire. Trainmen ran to his assistance and tried to keep him alive while a doctor was procured. When Dr. Jacobs arrived the boy was al most dead, and betrayed but few signs of life. He was removed to his home at 51 Washington street and given attention. The doctor expressed the opinion that the lad miitht not recover. When a reporter for The Dispatch called at the honse at 7:30 o'clock the boy was still alive. The other" lad who touched tho wire had bis hand badly burned. The insulation of the wire is supposed to have worn off. The wires can be easily touched by any pas senger on the bridge. Kicked Almost to Death. Samnel Gibson was beaten and kicked nearly to death at Third avenue and Re doubt alley about 7 o'clock last night. Only one of his alleged assailants has been ar rested, but the police expect to have tho other two this morning.

Doctor Dowie Wanders Far From the Bethany Home Doctrines. HE WILL WOBK MIRACLES TO-DAT. Believes That Celibacy Is a Crime Against Heaven and Nature. ALL CURES MUST BE INSTANTANEOUS The handsome parlors at the old Moor head mansion -on Center avenue, that has for the last five years been known as Bethany, were crowded long before service hour yesterday morning with people eager to listen to ltev. Dr. Dowie who is travel ing around the world from Australia to preach the doctrines of Divine healing. Very soon the hallway was filled, and peo ple even leaned in the open windows to catch the words that came from the lips of the famous speaker. Among the listeners were many earnest faces of persons nearly all diseased in some way; the deaf and the blind were present and crutches every here and there leaned against the seats. Miss Mary Moorhead, the founder of Bethany, introduced Mr. Dowie. He is a short, stout man, with a bright face and keen blue eyes that look out datmtlessly upon the crowd before him as he emphati cally throws out to them his strange beliefs. He is a dramatic speaker, and now and then flashes out such eloquence that the most critical listener feels like crying "Bravo !" but again he slides in plain phrases that rather curdle sensitive blood. He touched several lines where he differs strongly from the adherents at Bethany. They place sanctification imperatively before healing, and Mr. Dowie declares no person can be sanctified until they are healed. "You may be saved," he declares, "while your bodies are full of disease. Oh, yes; but it will be by the skin of yonrteeth, and you can never enter the 'highway of holiness' until your body and soul are pure as the spirit." HE DENOUNCES CELIBACY. For some time past Miss Mattie Gordon,a charming young lady of wealthy parents in Nashville.Tenn., has been teaching at Beth any and giving discourses on the carnality of Christ. While all do not coincide with lmr viewH nt thn Home, tnanv do. and Mr. Dowie very earnestly and impressively prayed for such. Tho doctrino of celibacy, that many believers in the Christian Alli ance advocate, was also denounced and marriage declared to bo ordained of God be fore man fell on that memorable occasion in the Garden of Eden. Secrot societies also came in foranathemies. Holding up a bundle of requests forpmyer, he said: "I will present them one by one to our God." The house was hushed in perfect silence full of Intensity, and then Mr. Dowie began to read over tho requests and made a brief prayer about each. There were requests from Arkansas, Colnmbns, Wis.: Morton, Va.; Rockwood, 111.; Sharpsburg, Emsworth, Franklin, and many from the city. Mr. Dowie announced ho would lay bands on no one that day; that he believed in teaching first, and until 9:30 o'clock to-day he would not see tho sick personally. Then he would devote his time to them until noon. In the afternoon services were held in the Liberty Street M. E. Church, where about 500 gathered to hear him. His sermon was alter the stylo of the morning, but decidedly e.oauent. Toward its close he defined his position in terms something like these: "I So no healing. It is the Lord who heals. He uses me. I have no sympathy with what is falselv called Christian science. They are anti-Christians and a sham and imposture: I believe Spiritualism to be of the devil; I have no affinity with Father Mollinger or tho bones of St. Anthonj: I do not believe in fnlth-hcaling faith never heals it is God or Divine healing: I have no affiliation with any one who teaches people to declare they are healed before they have the evidence. I have a strong antipathy to such. If you are healed vou are healed, and the evidence is there. If the evidence is not there and you say so, you are false witnesses, liars." NOT THE OETHODOX FAITH CURE. The latter remarks were strongly contrary to teachings at Bethany, where gradual healings have been the chief kind. It can be plainly seen that, while Bethany will not oppose the doctor in his work, should he re turn to the city, they cannot labor with him. If he returns to Pitt'sburg he will come inde pendently of any denomination or gather ing of people, aiid bo accompanied bv Mrs. Dowie, who assists him in all of his work. Mr. Dowie is very careful whom ne lays hands on for healing. Sometimes long lists of diseased suppliants are so scathingly ques tioned as to their past life and sins, they of their own will rise and hurry nway.prefertng to carry their illness rather than bare their soul further to his scrutiny. "Confess your sins one to another," is not always a com fortable command to be obeyed. WENT GUNNING FOE MTJSHE00MS. A Few Southslders Who Thought They Grew on Trees. The citizens of Baldwin township who live near to the city lines have been consider ably annoyed by membors of Snnday picnic parties, who camp on their premies, drink beer and have a good time in general much to the distaste of tho residents. Several efforts have been mado to bring tho offend ers to justice but without success until yes terday. Early in the morning'SquireCowan heard the firing of a gun and on investigat ing discovered a party of live in a carriage. He requested them to leave and a war of words followed. The 'squire without delay drove into the city and mado an information against tho party for malicious trespass. A warrant for their arrest was given to Captain Stewart, who went in search of them. He discovered the party at tho head of Eiehteenth street on their way into tho city. "They were placed under arrest nnd taken to the Twenty-eighth ward station, where they registered ns John Moi-gan, Frank Clear, Jacob J. Williams, X. Parker and James J. Price. Tno little man with tho gun said that they had gone after mush rooms, and being in Ignorance of the man ner in which they grow ho thought he would have to shoot them off the trees. The car riage was searched, and a "barnyard pheas ant" discovered beneath the cusnion, which the 'Squire identified as one of his, in conse quence the mushroom story did not go, and the entire crowd was held in $300 bail for a hearing to-morrow afternoon. The Duquesno Theater as a Church. The services of the Christ Methodist Episcopal Church were held yesterday in the Duqucsne Theater. "The pastor, Rev. Dr. G. W.

SEVEN HDNDEED DELEGATES IE IT Dispute Over the Representatives to the National Council. THET MAI BE INVITED TO EESIGN To-day 700 members of the State Council, Jr. O. TJ. A. M., of Pennsylvania, will go to TJnlontown. The body will hold its an nual session there to-morrow, extend ing throughout the remainder of the coming week. Quite a number of delegates came to the city yesterday to go with the local delegation to Uniontown. Among them were John E. Marland, George and Joseph Hobson, John Harmer, W. J. Bodine, Charles E. James, George Speese, .Charles Cnlin, George Berndt, William Hale, Edwin Fricke, George Stalb and Charles "Wunder, of Philadelphia: Cyrus Weiss, W. H. Danner, T. A. Gurbig, John Miller and James Deny, of Wilkesbarre. Dr. Harry Stites, Past National Councilor; Dr. W. H. Painter, National Eepresenta tive, William Hartzell and H. Wells Baser, Past State Councilors, all of Harrisburg, will arrive with the State Council Secre tary Deemer, of Philadelphia, this morning. John Harmer, a member of the Philadelphia delegation, represents the first council of the order which was a special feature of the Jr. 0. TJ. A. M. parade here two years ago. It is Washington Council, No. 1, of Germantown, which was organ ized May 17, 1853. There are less than a dozen of the charter members of the council living who still retain their membership. George Hobson, with the same delega tion, is editor of the Junior American Me chanic, the Eastern organ of the order, and John E. Marland is the next State Coun cilor. C. N. Baymand will be the next State Vice Councilor. A BIG ALLEGHENY COTJXTY DELEGATION'. The delegation from this end of the State will include 100 representatives from Alle gheny county, and about 20 each from Mercer, Lawrence, Crawford, Armstrong and Butler counties. Among the most promi nent delegates who go from Pittsburg will bo Stato Councilor Collins, Past state Coun cilor D. G. Evans, Past State Councilor n. A. Kell, W. T. Kerr, Chairman Stato Law Com mittee; P. A. Shaner, Superintendent of the Sublie schools of McKeesport; Editor J. K. mge, G. C. Morgan, New Castle; W. S. Fix, Sharpsburg; C. J. Frew, G. E. Kepple, A. D. Wilkin and W. C. Evans. The delegation will all go over tho Pennsylvania road, with the exception of tho members and friends of Vine Cliff Council, which will leave in a special Pullman car over the Baltimore and Ohio this evening at 9:20. The session, which will be the most -important ever held, will also be the largest. Heretorore tne business of the State Council could always be trans acted in three days. It is expected that at least four days will be required this year. There is only one larger legislative body in the State and that is the Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows, which is composed of nearly 1,000 delegates and represents about 97,000 members. The Mechanics have-over 700 representatives and about 65,000 members, but at the rate the order has been increasing for two or three years it will not be many years until the Mechanics will pass the Odd Fellows. While a har monious session generally is expected there are one or two matters to be considered over which there are some lively debates looked for. CANDIDATES FOR STATE DELEGATES. An amendment was offered in the Na tional Council at Cleveland reducing the representation from States in the National Council to one for each 8,000 members, In stead of one for each 5,000, as heretofore. There is some controversy as to whether this resolution passed or not. The repre sentatives claim it did not, while the Na tional Council Secretary argues that it did. If Mr. Deemer is right, then Pennsylvania's representation would remain as it is 12 In number but if the national representatives are right, there should be four additional representatives elected at Uniontown. There are plenty of aspirants for the office, among them W. J. Fix, C. J. Frew, W. C. Evans and A. D Wilkin, of Pittsburg; W. M. Hartzell, of Harrisburg, and George Hobson and Marsh Farra, of Philadelphia. Thoy will do air in their power to establish the claim that the resolution offered at Cleveland did not pass. The resolution said to have been prepared inviting all the national representa tives to resign because of incompe tency, will create some amusement if it ever reaches the body. It is said to bo in course of preparation by those who want to be national representatives and cannot have an opportunity of forcing their candidacy upon the convention, if it is proven that the Cleveland resolution did pass, unless they can get the present repre sentatives to resign. State Councilor Collins, who has 230 new councils to his credit for his term, will leave his office with a proud record behind him. The most important recommendation he will make is one providing for the election of a general State deputy whose duty it will bo to look after the grant ing of the warrants for and Instituting oi new councils, tnus relieving tne state Board of much arduous labor and giving them a better opportunity to look after the legislative interests of the order. The members of the Uniformed Rank are very indignant over the action of the Pitts burg Passenger Committee, which has made a.rate of $10 for the round trip to Chicago in October, and have decided that the Su preme Commanderr will meet in Pittsburg instead of Chicago. Bev. W. B. Covert Beady to Move. Rev. W. K. Covert, who went to Xew York a few days ago to make preliminary ar rangements to have a suit entered to re cover the Harlem property, returned yos terday. lie was reticent on the result of his trip, except to say that he had greater suc cess than he had anticipated in completing his arrangements, and that he will make some importnnt moves In a few days.
