PLACES TVHERE DAI) BOYS rLODBISH McKeesport citizens hope that after the present term of Criminal Court they can take down the barricades they have built around their houses to protect themselves from thieves and once again live in the be lief that their property is s-ecurc. For as far back as the mind of man can reach the bis borough and little city has been in fested v iih i hat was believed to have been a desperate gang of villains living in canes and marauding the homes of honest people in the protection of darkness, llobberies were reported every morning, but outside of the report nothing was done. Recently detectives have been employed, and it is hoped that safety will again be established. Throe of the gang are in jail awaiting trial before 'Squire Douglas, of Boston. They will be given a preliminary examination soon and will probablv be held for court. The names they give are "Cat" Porter, Albert Porter and Mrs. Amelia Carburger. The latter is a comely woman about 28 years old, and it is claimed she was the guiding mind that directed her two pals. After Porter was arrested she left the town, and was not heard from until a few days ago. She was finally traced to Xcw Castle and lound at a place called "Saint" Re. " Porter is the youngest of iiie three, being only 19 years old, and is held under three charges ot petty burglary. He has given the information leading to the arrest of Walkins and Mrs. Carburger. In speaking of the many McKeesport robberies yesterday. Detective Murphy said he thought the greater part had been committed by bad boys. "The town has more wild youths than could be placed in an averaged-sized reforma tory," continued Mr. Murphv. "Before it was incorporated as a city, the police serv ice wa necessarily poor, but now they are doing better work and. when a few prose cutions have been made in court, the rest will get seared and obey the law. I am not doing any work for the town, but am well acquainted there and have been told by the oficials that a thorough renovation will be made" CHECKS FOK TBAVELEBS. The American Express Company's Plan for Drawincr Money Abroad. The American Express Company is in troducing a system that will make it easy for travelers in foreign countries to get money without being identified and put to other inconvenience?. It is in tended to do away with the letter of credit, which has served its day of usefulness. The company is issuing what it calls "Travelers checqucs " The limit of each book is Si,O00, and persons can buy 23 jnany as they please. The checksrun from ilO to 5100, and will be accepted for hotel hills and other expenses without being cashed, or the money can be had for them in any jilace in Europe. The rate charged is one-lourtn ot 1 per cent, wlncti is cheaper than the letter of credit, and avoids the loss in exchange in going from place to place. Ilefore starting for Europe the buyer writes his name on the upper margin of each check, and all the identifica tion needed on the other side is the similar ity of the signature. There is a place on the lower margin lor the name, and this niU'-t be signed to make the check-good. M. it Vaillant, the I'ittsbnrg agent, said the company had located agents in all the principal towns and cities in the British Isle and on the Continent. The traeler 5s provided with a little book showing the loci! ion of all the offices. In addition a letter of introduction is given at the home office, and this makes it pleasant for people in a strange place. The agent feels that he knows his man, and is expected to look after his interests. On each check the vaue of the amount in the inoncr of the various countries is placed, and this makes it easy for a traveler who is not familiar with Ioreign exchange values. If any of thcchccks are not used the inoncr will be refunded. Mr. Vaillant says the system fcas been in operation only a" few 1vr. but the results are satisfac tory. The company auuic the risk of forgery, but there is little chance for cheat ing to be done. He claims the checks will be 6 pood as cash anywhere. Only those who have traveled much know how troublc suhc it is sometimes to draw money on a letter of credit. Men have been compelled in wait in a tonn several d.iys until the lisuikft had made the proper imjuirics. The Uoj-eolt Declared Off.

Mr. Yl'rlght Say a Process or Machine for Drying Fiili Is Kadly Needed. "There is a fortune for the man who will invent a process or a machine for drying fish," said Thomas .T.Wright, of Nashville, at the Monongahcla House yesterday. "Salt water fish are a luxury in the interior of the country, and only the rich can buy them. The poorer classes are shut out from what ought to be a cheap .article of food. They dry the finest fruits in California, and ship them all over the States. I have often wondered if the same methods couldn't be used to cure fish. Sev eral hours alter fish are taken out of the water, they are almost unfit to eat, and transporting them fa a fresh condition for any groat distance is out of the ouestion. If I tliey could be dried for a small sum on the spot, what a boon to humanity it would be. "'When the New Orleans Exposition was first broached, 1 was one of the consulting directors. I tried to persuade Major Burke, the Direc'or General, to give up the pro ject, as the city was too far removed from the trade centers. I suggested that it would be a good plan to make a specialty of fish. I designed an aquarium for him and wanted specimens from the gulf and rivers placed in it. The idea was to pav consider able attention to their loods. Then I ad vised the Major to oner a premium for a drying process. He adm tted it would he a novelty, but he was afraid to venture into specialties. I should like to see the plan carried out at the World's. Fair. It wouldn't cost much and would be an ob ject ot great interest to sightseers." MEETINGS AND NOTICES. 3Ieetinsrs- rpHE A"XUAL MEETING OF THE STOCK J.
