MOYIIG TO MEXICO. The Mormons Find the Land of the Greasers More Attractive Than Utah Territory. PITTSBUEG TRACTION MEN HERE. Hr. TVidencr Denies That the Fifth nne and Dnjuesne Lines Will Ee Consolidated. Ave- ELECTEIC HEATEKS FOR THE LIMITED. kadis; D-mocrats Fredict a Higher Position for Corcrnor Canpbell. Charles Herman, who lives a few miles from Salt Lake City, stopped over in Pitts burg yesterday to see the city.- A Dis patch man met him in a downtown office in the afternoon. He had 1 pood deal to say about the Mormons Though Canon and some of the other leaders have bowed k to the will 1 1 the inevitable and have ex pressed a willingness to observe the laws, the great body of Mormons are defiant and not yet subdued. "The escheat of the Gardo House and Fome of the valuable property in Brig ham Young's estate, under the law of 1S64, has mado the Mormons very sore," said Mr. Herman. "I understand the colony which they have started in Northern Xew Mexico is flourishing, and I think in course of time the faithful of the sect will migrate there from Utah. The decision of the escheat was a severe blow to the saints, and it has convinced them that their property is not safe in the United States as long as they adhere to their religious views. It is charged by the Gentiles that polygamy is still in vogue, but it is kept so well under cover that no case has come under my per sonal observation. The Mormons are strong in the territory, and they control its politics. Salt Lake City is in the hands of the Gen tiles, but their margin is so narrow that it will probably be wiped out in the next elec tion. The Mormons are an industrious class, and were it not for their abominable beliefs they would be very desirable citi rens." The conversation then drifted to the great Salton lake whicli formed last sum mer in the Colorado desert Scientists have concluded that it has come to stay and will form another inland sea. All Eorts of theories have been advanced to account for Salt Lake. The one generally accepted is that it is a part of the Pacific" Ocean which was cut off bv an npheaval of strata in a former age. Mr. Herman advances the ex planation that the lake was formed like the one in Southwestern Colorado. It is fed by internal waters, and he claims it is too far away from the ocean to make the Pacific theory sound reasonable. A number of salt works are now being erected around the lake. The water is so briny that a great deal of chloride of sodium is produced. It makes a first-class article for rough purposes, and the plants are paying investments. The lake furnishes one of the best bath ing grounds in the United States, but it is hard to reach in the hot weather. A rail road runs from Salt Lake City to a pofht on the lake, but so far the resort has not proved a great success. TOO MUCH FBUIX THIS TEAS. o Profit in the Business for Dealers or Growers Good Crop or Orange. "This has been a remarkable year for fruit," saidTony Barcky last evening, "but it has been unsatisfactory to dealers and growers. Since I have been in the business the crop has never been so large. There was too much. Those who owned orchards a few miles from railroads didn't make enough money to pav for propping up the trees, while the growers close to the fetation who had little hauling to do were glad if they made the freight on shipments. There was a little money in choice packages, but nothing for common fruit Grapes were sold in 2fcw York State for 15 cents a basket. We sold them here for that price, but at such a rate there is no profit in the business. Now all the Xew York grapes are frost bit ten, and the growers must get what they can for them. This is why grapes are so cheap at the opening of winter. Peaches were plentiful, but very unsatisfactory. It was too wet while the crop was maturing, and the peaches were watery. Housewives complained a good deal about the quality. The California fruit men were sharp. Thev held their stock and dried it lor the can ncrs. "Oranees have not been so cheap for ten years. The crop is heavy, but the fruit is very small. Several years ago the Florida growers turned their attention to producing large organges. The size was satisfactory, but the covering was thick and the pulp dry. Then they trimmed the.trees to raise smaller, but juicier oranges. The result is they are now under size, and there is more dissatisfaction. They pruned awav too much." AH ENGINBEE'S PBEMONITIOIT. Ho Side-Tracks His Train and Tims Avoids a Collision. A telegraph operator on one of the single track roads leading out of Pittsburg had au experience last week that will last him a life-time. The young man become careless, as dispatchers sometimes will, and he gave orders for a freight and passenger train, moving in opposite directions, to go to a certain station. When the trains had started, the operator suddenly remembered that they couldn't reach the place without a collision. It was too late to countermand the order, and in his agony cold drops of pcrsriiration ran down over" his face. In de scribing his feelings afterward, he said he lived years in the few short minutes which would decide the fate of the trains. He was' startled and re. lieved by seeing the engineer of the freight walk, into the tower. The engineer had re ceived his orders, but when he reached a switch he had a premonition there was f oraething wrong, and he turned in on the side track. His train was scarcely out of the way when the express thundered by. The next dav the operator went to the superintendent of the road, and told him what had happened, at the same time hand ing in his resignation. The manager looked at him for a moment, and then said: "Go back to your work, my boy. This experi ence has been a lesson for you. I don't think it will occur in the future." The telegrapher, in telling the story, re marked that another such fright would drive him crazy. He added that this is only a sample of what narrow escapes people have on railroads. "There is something in luck, but few understand how intelligent train men often avert disasters. K. & O. Theatrical Business. In the theatrical line this week the Balti more and Ohio road had the Fabio Eoiuani Company to Zancsville. The EmmaJuch Opera Company, 125 people, will arrive from Ciucinnati this cveninc in a special of sex en cars. Last night the Braddock Wire Company sent ten men oer the Baltimore and Ohio to work in their plant at Joliet This morning the winter schedules on all the railroads go into effect The changes in time have already been pointed out The passenger agents ask the public to take no tice to avoid mistakes. Very often people and miss their a week to get CAMPBELL NOT CAST DOWH. Mr. Jones Predicts a Better and Higher Place for the Governor. Henry Jones, of Washington, was one of the few Democrats who helped Governor Campbell to fight his battles in Ohio. He was in the city on Friday returning to the Capital. "The Governor is a remarkable man," he said. "They say Horace Greeley died of a broken heart, because he was de feated for the Presidency, but it would take more than that to kill Campbell. When I left him yesterday morning in Columbus, you never would have known that he had buffered a knockout He was bright and cheerful, and all the pangs, if he ever had any, had disappeared. Tou can't keep the Governor down, and the country will hear from him( in the future. He is yet sure to occupy a high place in the nation. But I must say that I never saw a man recover from the eflects of disaster so quickly." Before the election Mr. Campbell said if he was beaten for Governor he Knew there was nothing further in store for him. On the contrary, the luke-warm support offered hira by Virgil P. Kline, Martin Foran and Tom Johnson, of Cleveland, Keal, Kemelin and the rest, and the jealousy of the lead ing Prcsidental candidates, has earned tor him the sympathy of the people at large. Many Democrats think that Campbell is stronger than he ever was. George A Jenks predicts that he will some day occupy a Cabinet position. WIDENEK PLEADS IGKOBAHCE. Owners of the. Pittshurc Traction Boad Deny the Consolidation Story. P. A B. Widener and W. L. Elkins, of Philadelphia,. arrived in the city last even ing on the limited. They were accompanied by President George W. Elkins, of the Pittsburg traction road, and a third gentle man, who represents the Kemble estate. Mr. Widener is fresh from Europe, and it has been frequently stated that as soon as he returned the expected con solidation of the Duquesne and Fifth ave nue lines would take place. When Presi dent Elkins was tackled for the latest in the alleged deal he turned the reporter over to Mr. Widener, whom he said was the one authorized to speak for the company. Mr. Widener was asked bluntly when the roads would be consolidated. He re plied Irankly that it was news to him. This was the first time he had heard about it, and he didn't think there is any- tmng in tee report ie said He had come here to attend the annual meeting of the Pittsburg Traction road to-morrow and to inspect the line. He will remain for several days. He remarked casually that he had enjoyed his trip to Europe, and then the party disappeared into carriages that were waiting for them. They engaged rooms at the Anderson, but they didn't go there from the depot It was rumored they held a conference with C L. Magee late last evening, but this is denied. Among the stories floating around yester day was one that Mr. Magee had given orders to the Duquesne men to have the road in gondorder on Sunday, as he had a party of friends to take over the line. This report could not be verified. Some Decorum Among Birds. In the Italian colony, back of the Du quesne Hotel, one of the inhabitants keeps a lot of corn on a flat roof to feed the spar rows and pigeons. The latterare verv dainty creatures, and they refuse to eat while any of the sparrows are around. A guest of the hotel watched the birds enjoying a dinner the other day. As a rule sparrows are very pugnacious and selfish, but when the pigeons lighted on the roof to receive their share the little fellows gracefully retired in their favor. The sparrows and pigeons seemed to take their turns alternately at the food, and strange to say there wasn't the slightest janglisg between them. The Cricket Back in His Home, One of the curiosities of the Anderson Hotel is the cricket that chirps in the ele vator. During the flood last winter the little fellow was washed out of his home, but he turned np after several days in another part of the house. Then he slowlv moved his house from point to point until he reached his old home in the elevator. He has been there now for several months, and evidently was glad to get back as his song has been sharper and merrier ever since. The little lenow is well ted, bnt nobody in the house has seen him. His music' is the only thing that reveals his presence. Wilhelm Wants to Seo the Fair. . Herr Mollheimer, a German iron man, spent yesterday visiting the local mills. He is bound for Chicago to secure space at the World's Fair for an exhibit He believes Pittsburg is the greatest industrial center in the world. He says Emperor Wilhelm is thinking of visiting the fair, and if the condition of Europe will permit him, the German ruler would like to make a tour of America. Heavy Fines for peak-lasy People. The following sentences were imposed in Criminal Court yesterday: Robert Savage, assault and battery, 6 cents fine and costs; Lizzie McFarrell, malicious mischief, six months to workhouse; Dudley Malia, lar ceny by bailee, new trial refused, 48 hours to jail: Lizzie Hannon, selling liqnor with out license, on Sunday, and to minors, ?G00 fine and seven months to the workhouse; J.

Vlewlns Carnesrlo library Plans. The visitors to the exhibition of plans for the Carnegie Library continue to take zreat interest in the display. A large number of citizens visited the room yesterday, and the critical way in which they examine all the designs shows that Pittsburg's citizens are taking an active interest in the proposed building. The man in charge of the plans stated yesterday that a number of archi tects spend nearly all their time examining the exhibition, and that they all express admiration for the work. A great many ladies have called and are found to be the most critical in expressing opinions. THE ; ! WANT ADtETS AKE BOOMING. I : note : the increase.; : FIGURES THAT TALK.

EVERYTHING SHOWN IN THE BOOKS Some Inside Facts About the Fooling Privileges of Allegheny. THE TWO CHIEFS GITE THEIR TIEWS Pending the meeting of the Auditing Committee of Allegheny's finances, which occurs to-morrow night, much interest is taken by citizens on both sides of the river. Many charges of corruption have been, made against Mayor Wyman and Chief Murphy, all of which these dignitaries deny and sav ample proof can be shown which will fully exonorate them from any mal feasance in office as charged. One point in question -which has given rise to talk is the discrimination shown to managers of different attractions as regards licenses. In this connection H. O. Price, the former well-known pool seller, makes a very opportune and positive statement He, with E..IL Gasper and several others, owned what was called the "Summer Theater" at Exposition Park several years ago. He states that Louis Koerner, who has said that he was superintendent of the park, was not in that capacity, he being only In charge of laborers and general utility man. John A Ellsler was the sole manager of the Summer Theater. Koerner had charge only in the winter time when the park was closed. In his affidavit Mr. Koerner says that he paid $25 a day rent, with a grand total of 510,800. Price Takes In Amusement Prlvlleces. To this Mr. Price" takes exception, and says Koerner had nothing whatever to do with paying the license. "When starting the theater," said Mr. Price, "we had some dispute with Mayor Wyman, he claiming that as we were going to sell liquors the li cense would be $30. We thought this was wrong, and only a theatrical license was to be imposed upon us. We had a regular liquor license, and after an explanation to Mayor Wvman everything was arranged satisfactorilv with him, we agreeingto pay?5 a day rent Barnum's and Forepaugh's shows paid 500 per day to us for rental privi leges, but paid to the city the regular licenses lor such shows. The Buffalo Bill concern was not classed as a circus and Mr. Cody himself explained the difference satis factorily to the authorities and he was only charged the license as a common every-day exhibition, which was ?5. The ordinances governing such matters will show the rea son. Mr. Koerner has figured quite promi nently in this matter, and needlessly, be cause he was only a figurehead." In regard to the wheel of fortune privi lege which Mr. Koerner claims to have paid money for, Mr. Price said: "If Mr. Koerner paid any money to Mayor Wyman or Chief Murphy for -the privilege, as stated in his affidavit, he did not get it from H. O. Price & Co. This was rented to Charles Hurlickj'and no one ever had the same privilege while H. O. Price & Co. had the lease of the Exposition grounds." Did Not Pnt Up to Bun a Wheel. Mr. Price denies ever paying Mayor Wy man or Chief Murphy for the privilege of running a wheel. "Did you ever visit Mayor Wyman, Mr. Price, in behalf of Mr. Koerner, for Chief of Police?" asked the reporter. . "Yes. About February, 1890, two gentle men called at my place of business in Cleveland. I was in Chicago at the time. They left their names as James Bradley and John Hendricks, and I think left word for tne to come to Allegheny City as they wanted to see me on business. I did not see them then, but received a telegram from Bradley, asking me to come to Allegheny, and that he would pay my expenses. I "came on and met Mr. Bradley, who intioduced me to J. B. Stayton. Im mediately afterward they asked me if I did not know of some crookedness about Mayor Wyman receiving money for a wheel of for tune privilege. I told them there was not a word of truth in it. Mr. Koerner met me afterward and asked me if I would not cro over and see Mr. Wyman, saying that J mignt influence the coming Mayor in giving him a good position. This I positively re fused to do then. He, however, insisted upon me to such an extent that I consented to go and see Mr. Wyman and do what I could for him. Once Tried to Gnt a Privilege. "He and I wnt to Mr. Wyman's resi dence together, but Koernerdid not wish to be seen by Mr. Wyman, who, by the way, was sick in bed. Mr. Koerner, upon my request to go up and see him, personally re fused to do so. I then went up with my story and request and Mr. Wyman told me very plainly that he coyld make no prom ises before the election. Notwithstanding this I thought Mr. Wyman felt kindly toward Jut. itoerner ana nis position was assured. I positively state that I never asked Mr. Wyman to appoint Koerner Chief of Police." Mayor Wyman was seen at his home, and the above statement'by Mr. Price was told him. He corroborated it in every particu lar, and further added that certain persons, for political reasons, were raising this hurrah upon no just basis. "When the time comes," said he, "I will be able to prove myself guiltless of any and all charges made against me. The books will show all money received in the end, not withstanding the loss of stubs which were carelessly destroyed. There are a few peo ple in this city, instigated by political Srejudices, who are aiming to throw me own, but I am perfectly at ease .as regards the result" Chief Murphy also heard the story of Mr. Price, and coincides with Mayor Wyman's views, and lauehiuglv remarked that "when a man gets in power his enemies endeavor to do him up, no matter what the means and methods may be." Late last night Mr. Price was seen, and said Koerner was a man who was given to jumping at conclusions without facts, and was a great man to exaggerate all that he hears or sees. WINTER OPENING.

McMullen Versus I. N. Bichards and F. B. Herri man Alderman McMaMers Reserves His Decision. The hearing in the conspiracy case before Alderman McMasters, which involves the Integrity of a prominent stock broker, L N. Bichards, and a well-known telegrapher, Frank K. Merriman, came up yesterday afternoon. The hearing was over two hours long, and daring all this time the Alder man's office was crowded with oil and stock brokers. M. K. McMullen, the prosecutor, was the first witness called for the Commonwealth. He testified that Merriman bad been in his employ for over four years as a telegrapher at a salary of 525 per week. As to the alleged wrong-doings of Merriman while in his employ, he had no fersonal knowledge. On cross-examination e said he had discharged Merriman about three weeks ago, when he first heard of his alleged wrong doing. In answer to a question as to who belonged to the Keystone Provision, Stock and Ex change Company, he said be was the only member. He could not fix a date upon which the alleged fraud, conspiracy or any part of it was committed, but thought the first six months of the year' 1890 was about the time. Attorney William Beardon, who repre sented Merriman, inquired whether the Keystone Provision, Stock and Exchange Company was still alive, and also wanted to know if it was chartered. Mr. McMullen said the company could be revived at any time. Kobert McChesney, who was for somo time and until very recently Richard's telegrapher, was the next witness. He said he knew both defendants and sent messages from Bichards to Merriman touching Mc Mullen's business. Attorney Marron then asked what were the messages? The witness replied, orders to buy or sell stock in connection with McMullen's busi ness. "Do you know whether at any time these messages were false?" "I only know that some were not received in the usual way." Here the witness gave practical illustra tions by which he showed the legitimate mode of transacting the business. He first sent one message ordering McMullen to buy stock and in answer to this he would re ceive a message saying the stock was bought, all these messages he said were filed for Mr. Bichards and in a few hours or days, as the case would happen, Bichards would order him to send a message telling McMullen to sell the stock and in reply to this would get an answer saying that it had been sold. As to the messages sent in a usual way, McChesney said at times stocks would rise and fall in a very few minutes. He noticed that on occasions like this Merriman would send a message stating that certain stocks had been bought, sold and the deal closed. Iti instances of this kind he said McMullen would invariably be a loser, and if Bich ards and Merriman were working the tiling together they would profit This concluded the important testimony in the case, and Attorney Brown asked for a discharge of the defendants because the evidence was not positive, and he stated that there was no intent to deliver the goods, and tor this reason the case would not hold good in court Attorney Marron discussed the case from beginning to end and argued that the Al derman had no jurisdiction as to deciding whether the business was legal or illegal. Alderman McMasters reserved his de cision until next Tuesday. October Public Works Receipts. The receipts of the Department of Publio Works for October were 511,766 38.
