sanvaaaaaigtWiUMMitfiaiftca iwbt'&!tjs&iw 'nrx apRT 'fr cv THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH MONDAY. APRIL 11. 1892. BXU.VW- vk In the characteristic features I am ascribtnir to hiin. Many Catholics in France, the ttshops and priests particularly, -were blinded by the shadows of the old mon archy. To their minds a contract made lonjj ago "by their forefathers with nujjh Capo' was Indissoluble, and, moreover, the mon arcy and religion were wedded in the clos est ties. A school of theolozians was on hand to unearth Irom musty tomes princi ples upon which to support those notions, and from tr-.e buir.mit of which to throw shell agulnst the Republic and all modern political forms. "The result was discord in France and war between the Church and the Republic Leo speats to empires monarchies and repub lics, and all of them and each one of thera aie nod If they provido duly for society and tespond to the present needs of the nation. Catholics Have Political Liberty. "Catholics have the fullest right to prefer one form of government to the other. In deed, the Church has dealt durinir her Ion history with all forms, and it is a question which she could best answer which one has brought her the greatest comfort or the dceret sorrow. Whre the Republic is the cstab.ished form. Catholics are bound In conscience to recognize it and servo it loyally. Tlnally, Io teaches the great principle which underlies atl modern political trans formations that no one iorm of government among a people can bo considered so definitive as to beimitable for all time, even If in the beainnlni the nation had declared It to be such. This encyclical will brin;; pctce and union to France. In their hearts the French are Republicans, and It anscted them to sec chuich officials sepaiated from the country's chosen covernmcut through an rllfance Tilth monarchists. Tho latter rcjo.red In the alliance which gavo them power and adhesiveness. Vra has put the church totally above political parties, a few vears ago he did as mucn tor sp-un and more recentlv yet for ISrazil: but the elTcct or an cncvelical of this land reaches out far beyond the confines of Franee. Americans cannot fall to see in it the official confirmation of their own Insti tution by the highest school of thought in Christendom. His Stand on the Labor Question. "In the same line of popular and demo cratic Ideas was the encyclical on labor pub lished last year. While teaching in the plainest manner the rights of property and of capital, the Pope throws the lull weight of his mighty woid Into the scale In tavor of the toiling masses and gives notice to the jiuardians of nations and the possessors of wealth that tile hour of reckoning is nigh unless justice be done, lie deals in no vague declaration-, hut goes at once to the root of the question, declaring that the workman is entitled to a lecompense for his labor which shall permit him to live in frugal comfort, in keeping i ith his diunitv as a man and a ciitin or boa. ana organized societvmnst see that his rights to life, health and salutary frunoundlnir. bo protected. "Leo has been called the "Worlcingman's l'ope, and few appellations more noble and liioi e Christian could be thought of. He has had pity on the multitude, and in this single fact there is more grandeur and glory by far than to have been hailed bv monarchs and served bv the rich and ponerfulof thcearth. "Leo bids fair to direct for several years vet the onward movements of the age. lie lias just entered upon his S3d year, and while appaiently niot trail in body, he is healthy and capable of much labor. His mind is as clear and vigorous as it ever was; his mem ory most retentive, Iiow th rnt!n Spends His Days. "The hours of the day are occupied In re ceiving visitors and the several heads of the different eongiezatious or departments among which the business of tho church is divided. The evenings ate for his own per sonal labors, and long toward midnight lie lctaln- Ids scat at the dek. His immediate secretaries aie never left idle. T.le aid which they give, lion ever, for his encycli cals and other very important documents, Is largely that of copyists. He dictates, cor-icct-and revises so much, that what goes to the world under his siguatuic Is, indeed, his wind and woid. "I aw him at his best a few weelcs ago, on the ex e of tlieanniverarvof his eoionatlon. He was surrounded brail his Cardinals, tho prelates of his court and numerous Arch b shop and llisliops from various countries. The Dean of the Sacred College rend to him an address or congratulation. The l'ope, while listening, showed signs of restlessness and latigue. Then he replied, speaking at first from his seat.and inacalm, unlmpas sioncd manner. oon, however, he was in the heart of his subject. His eyes gleamed, his checks flushed. He aroe, and his eloquence or thought and word transfixed his hearers. Xo one hearing him would have believed the end of his pontificate to be near. When it does come, w ha a void i ill there be : lade! Let us hope that 1'iovidence has in its keep ing the man able to hll it. It ia a difficult task to point him out. SMILES AND SH0WFLAKE5 THE FAD. An Odd Mixture pT April Weather Dealt Out to I'tttsburg Yesterday. The Weather Bureau is being moved from tho Schmidt building to its permanent home in the new Government building. A3 a re sult nature was neglected, and hence the pote pourri of sunshine, shadow and snow storm dealt out to Pittsburg and vicinity yesterday. It is also averred that as the weather had spiritualistic tendencies it was kicking because its headquarters wcio being taken so far fiosi the great source of spiritual nourishment. At. ill events April with his alternate smiles and tear had been left out in the cold and his tears became snowflnl.es. The thermometer started off yesterdav with a tester of 30. Soon after ltjunined to 33 and vmied between there and ST:ill da. It kept within the snow limit all the time, and nature snowed and smiled just as it suited her lancv. It would blow foi a time like a Dakota blizzard, and the snow was blinding. Afew minutes latcr allwoula be calm and the suu would smile like a day in .luue. It was a dull day In Allegheny and De tective Fred Zimmerman put in the time by maklng bets on the weather. His bet was on nnlnne and snow cverv 15 minute-, and during tile dav he w on It bets out o: 17. Another intercuin.: feature of the day was the women who, lured by the sun, iciituicdout in their new Kaster bonnets. A snow storm would catch them and they could be seen huddled together i:& a door way waiting loranotlier gleam of sunslitne. When it came they would proceed until the snow again mcuook them, when they would find another doorway and repeat tho waiting operation until they regained their homes. A HUS3AKD WITH A HAPPY JAO. He Simply Breaks Lp the Furniture and Throws His Wife Out. Late Saturday night James McTighc went to his home on Ashton street, Allegheny, and commenced to abuse his wife. He had been drinking considerably, and when he entered the house he went to the dining room and began to break the furniture there and also a number of plates and other tablewaio. Ills wile was up "-tails, and heating the noise came Horn her room to the head or the Mails. When McTighe saw her he went up and started to abuc her. She tried to retreat to bet room, but he caught her and threw her down the stairway, she tell heavily, and dislocated iier right shoulder, bbe was also severely biuised and cut. Her son, John 31cTighe, was awakened and took hold of his lather. The latter struck him, but the son was too powerful and held his father until Officer Hutchinson was called and ai lcsted him. Jlayor Yoegtly, at the heating yestei daj , committed tho man tohte ioi house for 1)0 days. KYSTEEY ETJEEODKDS THE CASE. Hu-li Derers Has IScen Missing From a Shanty IJoat Since April 1. Coroner McDowell is hunting information concerning Hugh Devers, a boy between 8 and C j cui-s of age, i ho 1ms been missing since April 1. Hugh's parents live on a shanty boat moored in the Allegheny river Hearths railroad l-ridge. There is an air of mystery about the case, which c en tho Coroner can not penetrate. The parents of the boy say they think he fcil overboard and was di owned, his body irterward being washed down the stream. There are tome conflicting "tones told by other people, and the facts are hard to ascer tain. When Hugh was last seen he wore a light calico waist, dark pants and stockings and lace shoes. lie had light hair cut short. BUSST A BLOOD V25SEL. tudden Death of William A. J.

New Schemes Proposed for the Preservation of the Block House, MOULD'S FAIE WANTS IT. The Daughters of the Revolution Ob ject to Its Removal. REQUEST MADE TO MRS. SCHENLEY To Donate the Ground Upon Which It Stands Kot Granted. IT MAI BE EEBUILT IX THE CITI PARK The old block house at the Point, the only remnant of Fort Duquesne, is just now the subject of several schemes for its preservation and exhibition. One scheme is that of the Daughters of the Revolution, who have asked Mrs. Schenley to donate the building and a good-sized tract of ground around it to their society, which promises to improve its surroundings and preserve the building as a relic of the Rev olution. Another scheme is that of the local mem bers of the "World's Fair Commission, who desire to transport the building to Chicago for exhibition. They claim its fame has been perpetuated in the works of McKnight and others as well as in Revolutionary his tory, and it would he a great attraction if protierly placed at the Fair, and they think it could be moved without serious damage. Talk of aioving It to tho Park. Still another scheme on foot is to have the building removed to Schenley Park. It would no doubt prove an object of great interest at the park, but the Daughters of the Revolution argue that its value as a landmark, or as a figure of old Fort Du quesne, would be entirely lost by its re moval from its present location. Its pres ent foundations, they say, are those built by the French and Indians when the fort itself was erected, and even the old tunnel, which is a part of it and which runs for several hundred feet toward the Mononga hela river, is still there. Comparatively few know of the existence of this tunnel. It is unused now, and is fall of mud and rubbish at the opening, but a little expense in dig ging and cleaning up would restore the old cave and make it interesting to sightseers. Filled Dp and Forjotteiu There was at one time an opening to it on what is known as ItedouDt nlley, but it was filled up and forgotten many years ago. The purpose of the tunnel is not known, but it is supposed that it was used either for the storage of ammunition or a place of con cealment tor prisoners. Chief Bigelow is supposed to be one of those interested in getting the block house cremoved to the park, but while he made no ucuiai wuen asKeu auout it yesicruay lie said there were enough old Buildings at the park and no moro were needed. Tho chief had a plan made the other day showing tho l'oint distiict, with the Exposition building and the blockhouse matked out prominent ly, and with a large sized lot marked out around the latter. A Suggestion for Mrs. Schenley. This, he said, had been made for a gentle man whose name he was not at liberty to give, but who evidently had some piopo sltlon lor the preservation of tlie.ola build ing on hand, as the plan was to be sent with a communication to Sirs. Schenley. It is thought possible that the Exposition Soeietv Is miking another effort to get the building. They tried it two j ears ago, but Mrs. Schenley declined to give it up to them, though her son, when here shortly afterward, Intimated (hat she would proba bly give the building and the ground on which it stands to the city if the proper offi cers would ask for It. Mrs. ScUenley's agents in tins city advise her not to give up too much ground with the building, as it is valuable and is growing more so every dav. she has evidently taken their advice, lor none of the schemes yet proposed have borne fruit. Thn number of persons who are interested and the schemes they have on haudaie, however, a good indication that something w ill soon be douc to preserve the old landmark. TURNERS IN CONVENTION. Members of the Pittsburg District Hold a Meeting in McEerspart They 1V1U Convene Here Next The Annual Tnrn Frst Comes to the S3Uthslde.

A daring attempt was made by thieves to burglaiize the residence of John I. Brown, on Neville street, near Ellsworth avenue, early yesterday morning. The thieves gained an entrance into the house by raising one of the dining room ilndow6, which had been left unfastened. They ransacked the first floor from the kitchen to the parlor and made a pile of plunder in tho reception hall. It consisted of all the silverware In that por tion of the house, bric-a-brac, overcoats and umbrellas, and other valuable articles. The thieves were Just about to start up stairs when Mr. Brown, who was returning trom the city, stepped up on the front torcii and unlockod the nail door. This frightened the thieve'lan ay and they made theirescape through the window. Mr. Brown did not seo tho thieves, but when he saw the large pllo of goods In the hall he became alarmed and immediately telephoned the Fourteenth ward station and Officers Mohan and Single were sent to make an investigation. They found the thieves had been in the stable and stolen several small articles Horn there. Peter Scbalzman to Succeed Captain Bell. It was reported in Allegheny last nignt that Police Captain Bell, who was suspended some time ago, had been- permanentlj- de posed, and that Peter Schatzman was to bo appointed Night Captain of Police to suc ceed him. Peter Schatzman Is now foreman of the Grant Engine Company, and has been a memberof thatorganization ever since the beginning of the paid department. Last summer ne was Acting Assistant Chief dur-. ing the absence or Assistant Chlor Hunter. He was also a candidate tor fire chief sev eral years ago against Robert Jones, the present Incumbent. THE BOYCOTT PREMATURE. - A Printer Official Thinks It li Better to Belp the Compilers of the City Directory The Publisher Are the People They're After." ' The city, directory boycott is being felt on every hand by the compilers of the book, but whether it is policy to work a ban at this stage of tne game is questioned by some printer! "I think the placing of a boycott on the directory," said a printer official last night, , "was a little premature. It would bo better, to my mind, if tho.unlon people of tne two cities would turn in and help the canvassers as much as possible. I think it would bo better policy. "J. FDlffcnbaoher, the compiler of the directory, has never placed himself on record as being against union labor, and that is one reason why I think the book should not be boycotted at this time. He has a contract with Stevenson & Foster, the printers, which was made for Ave years. I do not know how long the contract has been made, but I know it was drawn up long be fore the present strike, wnen Stevenson & Fostor were employing union labor. For these reasons I think we have no right to do Mr. DlfTenbacher and his assistants an In jur v. "JIv nlan is to give the compilers all the help possible, and let them get the copy Into the publishers' hands early. Stevenson A Foster are bound by their contract to have the book finished by a certain time. If they do not they will be the losers. I think we can make them come out at 'he short end if different tacti.es are adopted. If we go on with the boycott the publishers will get the better of usT The copy cannot be gotten In at the required time under the present cir cumstances, and If the contract Is broken by ono party the other side will have the same privilege. If tho boycott goes on, the city directory. In the language of the printer, will be 'pi.' The canvassers are meeting with trouble on every hand. They go to tho house of a union laboring man and when their business Is stated, are treated very coolly. The per son who Is interrogated either blankly re fuses to give the information or lies. The latter method has been largely adopted and a great many people are giving fictitious names." JAHEETT C0MIHO TO PITISBUHQ. IIo Keslgns Consulslilp for a Position i iili n Manufacturers' Association. A vacancy exists In a fat consulate in England by reason of tho resignation of John Jatrett, of Pennsylvania, consul of Birming ham. The salary is $2,503 a year, but un official fees make the place worth about $2,000 more. Mr. Jarrett, however, after three years residence In the smoky city of liirralngham. Mas come to tne conclusion that ho prefers tho still smokier city of Pittsburg, and he will resume his old position with the Tin riato and Sheet Iron Asso ciation at a guaranteed salary of $4,(W0 a year for 12 years. Learning of tho vacancy, "Cousin Bin" Folsom, consul at the neighboring city of Sheffield, hastened to put In his application for a promotion. It is understood, however, that he has been notllicd that ills application was received too late, and that the appoint ment of Cyius Field, Jr., to the vacancy has been practically determined upou. BULL TIED UP. The Axe-TJammcrmcn Have Not Tet Ke- turned to Work. The strike in the axle department of Car negie's Twenty-ninth street mill is not near a settlement. Saturday the strikers held a meeting, but could not come to- a definite conclusion This afternoon the men will again meet, and at this meeting it will be decided what will be done. The department is still idle, although there are p. number of orders in. No one can be secured to work. All of Saturday the bosses in tho mill wete among the men try ing to persuade them to come back, but as they offered the same wages the men struck on. and no one would so to work. The company is now considering a cut in wages in tho machinists' department. Al ready some men have been discharged. Monnngahela Mines to Shut Down. A McKecsport special says: Reports from all along the Monongahela river state that within the next 30 days most of the mines will be shut down indefinitely, owing to a scarcity of orders.

The official otders have gone out that the Baltimore and Ohio Eailroad will proceed to bnild its long desired third track from Pittsburg to Contfellsville this spiing. Fills and new roadbeds are being made at various points between Connellsvllle and this point preparatory to commencing the laying of the thud track. PHYSICAL CULTTJEE AT THE FAIR. Col. Parker Thinks a Homo Should Be Built to Tr?ln the Children. Colonel Parker, President of the Cook County Norma! School, was on the limited last evening goint to Chicago. He had been in Philadelphia attending the annual meet ing of the American Physical Culture So ciety. IIo says a number of valuable papers were read, illustVating the various systems in use. Physical training in schools has received a wonderful impetus in the last lew years, in the leading colleges for both sexes us much attention is now paid to de veloping tha body as tho mind. At present the Swedish system as advo-ated bv Llngjr has the call, but in Chicago, Kansas City and other Western cities, the Tnrnur system ot Germany has been introduced. The Amorlcuu or athletic plan has nlso a number pf followers. Colonel Parker say anv ol" the system0 are good, and there is nothing in them to InJ nre tho most delicate constitutions as has boen charged. In some of the Eastern schools the girls complained that the exercises were too violont and hurt then,, but the movements that caused the tionble were eliminated from the dally : eglme. Colonel Parker if most interested in the school exhibition for the World's Fair. A' gymnasium will be pro vided in which the . various r-ystems ot physical training can be illus trated by teachers. To make the Fair as edu ucational as possiblo the Colonel has recom mended the building of a homo for children In which all the youngsters visiting the Fair could be taught bv practice what physical training means Mrs. Potter Palmer has in dorsed tn,e idea, and colonel rarker thinks such a home will be established. TOOK TOO MUCH LAUDANUM. Constable Robert Hughey, of Allegheny, Found Insensible on the Street, Constable Robert Hughey, of Alderman Brlnker's office, Allegheny, was found in an unconscious condition eaily yesterday morning lying at the foot of the East street steps leading up Nunnery Hill. It was pre sumed that he was under the influence of liquor, and ho was removed to the Allegheny Central station. When taken there Hughey was rigid in every limb. Stewart tHamilton, the turnkey, fearing the man was dying, called Dr. Hazzard. The latter worked with the man for two hours, and consciousness was restored, but not suflicientlV to give the man freedom of speech. He was removed to his home, at the corner of Compromise street and Spring avenue. An empty four-ounce laudanum bottle was found in 'his pocket. Dr. Hazzard stated that the insensibility was due to liuglmy's having taken this drug. No thought of au attempt at snicido is enter tained, because it is said that Hughey is addicted to the laudanum habit. W0EZ OF INCENDIABIES. TVomen Claim They taw Men Throwing Lighted Matches Into Lutton's Stable. It is believed the Are which burned James Lutton's stable, on Clay alley, e.irly yester day morning, was of incendiary origin. Oflicer Cross was investigating the matter yesterday and found two i omen who told liim a story that confirmed this belief. One of the women alleged she saw three men lighting matches and dropping them Into n crack in the beards of the stable, after wi:i"h they ran up the nlley, past her house. The other noman saw the men .running away from the place, and shortly afterward tho stable was lound to be on flie. Not an Acme Torpedo. Tho Acme Torpedo Company desire to cor rect the Impression that it was a torpedo furnished by them that recently failed to explode when put in the Grover Cleveland weil on the Kelley farm, tho nitro-glvcerine being alterward balled out. Wr. William O'Brien, manager or the Acme, states that the torpedo was purchased from and oper ated by the agent of another concern. CANT DUMP HAER1TY; Democratic Opinions of the Result of the Two Conferences BETWEEN PATTISON AND WALLACE The Country Watching Pennsylvania's Pac tional Fijrht DELEGATES WITHOUT INSTRUCTIONS John C Bane, Chairman of the 'Washing top County Democratic Committee, was at the Monongahela House yesterday for a short time. He was on his way home from the national capital. Mr. Bane is a Guffey man, and he feels sure the Pittsburger will knock out Harrity. "The best Democrats In -the State," he satf, "are tired ot Philadelphia domina tion and methods. That crowd is in politics (or what is in it, and the Democratic party is tired of their rule. The fight between Guffey and Harrity is attracting the atten tion of. the best people in the House and Senate. The feeling is strong in "Washing ton thaHJuffey will win, and they want to see him lay out Harrity. Guffey is work ing for the good of the Democracy. Har rity's appointment is the result of a bargain before the election, and it is the worst he could have made. Tho Governor Hurt by FatUson. "Harrity has hurt Pattison a great daL He completely dominates the administra tion. The Governor and the Attorney Gen eral are under his thumb. Hensel is a good debater and can make plenty of noise in a convention, bnt he lacks the will power. Harrity makes practical politics a business. I don't see how it is possible for Wallace to make a deal with Pattison on condition that Harrity Ib dropped. The Governor can't throw him overboard, and that settles it. The State Convention will undoubtedly de clare for Cleveland." At this point James Atwell.who was listen ing to the conversation, said he thought a unit rule would not be adopted, as It is un democratic. He believes the State delega tion will go to Chicago unlnstructed. The convention has no right to dictate to tho people; this is the business of the Congress ional ditricts. Mr. Atwell got b.ick from llarrlsbnrg hist evening. Mr. Bane and he are both Wallace men. Ilandall's Opinion or Wallace. When Handall was alive, Atwell was his right bower, and the great Congressman on his deathbed told Pat Foley and nlm that Wallaco was the greatest Democrat In the State. Mr. Atwell says the combination with Pattison has not yet been made, though the Senator had two conferences with him on the subject last week. Wallace is for the Governor, becauae he is against Cleveland. Mr. Atwell added that the Harrity bureau In Philadelphia was making all sorts of Calms for the Secretary, but when tho test comes there will be a number or counties now supposed to lie for Harrity that will vote for Guffev. The bureau seldom refers to Berks, Northampton, Westmoreland, McICean, Butler, Washington, Allegheny and other counties that could be mentioned that have declared for Guffey. The charge Is freelv made bv Guffev Dem ocrats that Harrity is sending his people over the State to work for him at the ex pense or the taxpayers. They are supplied with railroad passes Irom their chief. It Is claimed they are instructed to sav to workers that whether Cleveland or Pattison is tho nominee, it elected, Harrity wiU'bo the Postmaster General, and he will be in a position to reward them. INDIANS ON THE ALERT. A Part of a Tribe In Wisconsin Trying to Beat Another Section Having Squan dered Their Patrimony, They Now Want a Share of the Land Remaining. Albert Miller, an Indian lawyer, was at the Union depot last evening going to Washington. He was a fine specimen of physical manhood, over six feet high, and was as Intelligent as he was handsome. He represented the Stockbrldge tribe, who live on a reservation in tho Green Bay country, Wis. These Indians are tho descendants of the Mohican tribe that J. Feniraore Cooper has lmmor'allzed in ono of his novels. "The Last of tho Mohicans" is one or the most en tertning in the Leather Stocking series, and every schcol boy is familiar with the excit ing story. Mr. Miller is very proud that Cooper should have selected his tribe around which to weave his famous romance. The lawyer's mission to the Capital is to protest against tho passage or a bill intro duced by Congressman Lynch, a Democrat, wiiu inuiiaeu io carry tne uistnct last tail. In 1813 part ot the tribe separated from thoir brethren, and asked the government to give them their lands in severalty. This was done, and having squandered their patri mony, they havo since been demanding ad mission Into the tribe on an equality with those that lemained and claiming a share. of the land. Mr. Miller savs tho outsiders succeeded in having Introduced into every Congress a bill granting them this extraordinary prlvlleco. Lvneh Is thn author or such a measure in the present House, and the Indians sent Miller with fall power or attorney to Washington to pro test. They haven't mncli fear that the bill will be passed, but tho kickers have always been favorably lccelved by the Democrats on account of their political strength. Mr. Miller states tnat the Stockbrldge In dians have always maintained their tribal relations. Thev have become civilized and their land, consisting of twotownshljis. Is now very valuable. In tho lengthy docu ment giving him the power of attorney it says it wai done by tho action of tho Sachem councilor-, in convention assembled. Their grievances are men unfolded in detail. Mr. Miller says those who want to roturn to the ' tribe are not full-blooded Indians. In the early days they wore picked up bv the redskins as proteges. Some of them are colored, and the lawyer adds that nearly nil nationali ties aro represented among them. The mix ture or blood is so complicated that it Is im possible to tiace their descent.

About 6 o'clock Saturday evening young Flagherty returned home, and because his mother asked him for a small amount of his wages he tnrjied on her and was beating her in a terrible .manner when his father entered the house.

Clair township has stirred someone into action. A rumor was current through the Southside yesterday that the Law and Order Society would tako a hand in suppressing the open violation of the law, and in consequence the visitors to the haven of the thirsty were less in num ber yesterday than there had been in tho past. It was asserted that several Law? and Order officers were seen heading lor Lower St. Clair, and the news traveled fast. Look outs were placed at convenient places, and it was impossible for strangers to gain entrance on any plea whatever. People could bo seen coming and going from differ ent well-known resorts, but what the pass word was to gain entrance It was impossible to find out. There was one thing very evi dent, however, yestorday. that was that there wa less disorder and drinking in that vicinity than for some time past. SCAESD THE BOABDEBS.

WAITING FOR A TRIAL. Important Cases to Be Considered by the Grand Jury To-Day. SIX HOMICIDES TO FACE THE COUET 1 Lack of Evidence" Against John Palpus, Held For Murder. CL00NAFS SOXS WILL TRY TO SATE HIM Warden McAleese yesterday completed the jail calendar for the term of Criminal Court which opens to-day. The calendar only contains 70 names, the smallest num ber on any similar list for the same period in four years. The jail also contains a less number' of prisoners at this time than it has for four years. The most interesting cases in any prison are always the murderers, and this list con tains the names of six persons charged with that crime and one with manslaughter. The former are John Pulpits, Dennis Cloonan, .John Timothy, Jacob EUk, Delia Cain and Mary Frailey, and the latter is James Mc Caffrey. John Pulpns is the colored man held ac countable by the Coroner's jury for the mnrder of Sarah Joyce on the lonely Syl van avenue road one evening in February. This is ono of the most mysterious cases in local police history. Although they fur nished the circumstantial evidence upon which Pulpus was held for the crime, the police admit that the evidence is weak, and acknowledge their belief that Pulpus can not be convicted on it. Very Little Evidence Against Him. The case is expected to come np before the grand jury this week, and it will be no surprise if the bill against Pulpns is ignored. The police declare they have no other evi dence of any importance against him than that produced before the Coroner, and it was of such a vague naturo that it will re quire dextrons handling to pass muster in the grand jury room. In the meantime no clew has been found leading to any other person as the murderer of Sarah Joyce, and It does not seem likely that the guilty man will ever be ap prehended. Palpus is confident of hlsac- rtwtffal II. fa rna rf th. mncth elinerf,,! anil nirreenliln nnnabi Wnrflnn Me.ATee.cA lmjt Rnrt frequently expresses the wish tnat his trial was over so that he could get out and return to his occupation as teamster now that spring impiovements have begun and work is nlonty. Dennis Cloonan, the old man from Con gress street who battered out his wife's brains- with a chair a few weeks ago. Is n morose and sullen prisoner. He talks ns lit tle as possible to the keepers, and his favor ite position is sitting with his elbows on his knees and his chin resting on his hands, gazing at the floor. He has nothing to sav about his crime to anyone but his four sons, who frequently visit him. Returning to Their Father's Relief. At tho time of the murder his sons, all young men, would have nothing to do with him, but gradually tbelr repugnance has worn off until no w they seem to think as much of the father as ever and aro prepar ing to save his neck If possible. John Timotny, of the Southside, who is charged with causing the death of his wife a little more than a week ago, affects to be furious over his Imprisonment and de clares his Innocence ot tho crime whenever opportunity offers. He favs his wife was drunk and received her injuries by falling downstairs. The evidence against him is circumstantial and he declares no Jury would dare convict him on it. Jacob Ellk's case is still fresh in mind. He conducts himself like the other prisoners in the Jail, talks freelv of thn death of his sweetheart, Ida Engel, and of courso insists that the shot which ended her life was purely accidental. Delia Cain and Mary Frailey are both charged with infanticide. The Frallev girl's child was found in a enphoard in her room a few hours after birth. with its throat stuffed full of papor. Delia Caln'schild was thrown into a cesspool. She is a Millvale borough girl. James McCaffrey, who is charged with manslaughter, is accu;ed of accidentally shooting a son or Police Officer Kinney In a Wylie avenue poolroom. BUSINESS HAS MOVED As Predicted One Tear Ago, and Market Street Has Proved to Ba the Best Lo cation. It is evident the time has passed when we have to make our purchases in a few blocks of the city of PittBburg, on streets where landlords have Increased rents to such enormous rates that every article of mer chandise costs 2j per cent more than it should. Market street in former time was the best business street In the city, and will be again. The useless places are giving away to legitimate business, and there is not a store torrent on that street at present. Its cellars, all being above high watermark, makes it sure from losses hy floods. The low prices of property and rents on Market street give business men an advantage of underselling their competitors. One year ago Stoughton & Stulen opened a fine wall uaper and painting establish ment under'the stylo of house decoration at 101 Market street, corner First avenue (formerly tho well-known retail stand of Porterfleld & Stevenson), and havo this year increased their stock of goods so ns to mnkelt the most attractlvo in quality and prices in the city. The taste displayed in thoir selections from their long experience in harmony of colorings puts them away in advance In the business west of the moun tains, being equal to the Interior decoration of any of the Eastern oities. The following is tho departments or their business: Wall paper, oictnre moulding nnd relief decora tions, house painting, sign painting, fresco paintings, tinting, etc. Telephone 816. Dr. W. G.

The average actress will not go on the road these days- without a dog. It may be an ugly pug, a dainty poodle, or a big New foundland, but irrespective of the breed the csnine it obnoxions to first-class hotel pro prietors, and as n rule gets the players into no end of trouble. Still the comely crea tures will have them, even if they come high. Bernhardt and Patti have managed to get a great deil of advertising out of their dogs, and this is probably the reason why they carry them. Indeed, the French ac tress has been refused admission to a number of hotels on account of her menagerie. In Pittsbnrg the Anderson is the only hotel where a posi tive ban exists against animals of all kinds. Four-footed beasts In particular are not wanted, nnd the rule would not be broken for President Harrison. Last Monday morning Ko e Coghlan, with a poodle in hor arms, bad scarcely alighted from her carriage In front of the hotel when t':o eagle eye or Mr. Bonneville, the clerk, sighted the dog, nnd a bellboy was sent to inform her that the little brute would not bo allowed to stay In the house. A p-irley ensued, and then, with a tear nnd a sigh, the actress nnd poodle parted company for tho week. The dog was sent with the maid to live at a cheaper hotel. Some actresses knowing the peculiarities of hotel men ndXipt shrewd devices to smug gle tho canines into the honse. Beatrice Cameron, lending lady for Mansfield, is one of these. She .stopped at the Anderson during the holidays, and was there for half a week when the dog was betrayed by accident. He was a small tmp, and Miss Cameron had prepared an Innocent-looking banket as a kennel for him. It was lined on the Inside with wool, and when the lid was closed the basket would pass the closest scrutiny from lynx-eved hotel clork. It so hapnened at the Anderson, and even Chief Clerk Crosby, as sharp as he is, was fooled by the clever actress. The basket was placed on the office counter while she registered, and the clerk wondered what kind or fruit tne lady car ried in the receptacle. Visioni of grapes, oranges, peaches, etc.. loomed up betore him, and ho mentally congratulated Miss Cameron on her good sense in carrying a lunch while traveling. But the animal's own friskincss gave him away a few days later. Hn couldn't resist the temptation ti puns his head playfully out of the basket while n servant was In the room. His indis cretion cost him his lodging in the hotel, nnd Mr. Dog was promptly shipped with tne maid to another hotel. When Bemhardt's manager wrote to the Duquesne for rooms for the great Sara, ho apologetically added that newspaper reports to tho contrary, sho only had one dor, and he could stay in the baggage room. On this condition Bernhardt was accepted, nnd she gave tho hotel people very littlo trouble during the week. Choice Timothy Hay.
