MIX WHO WAS FULL OP DOG BLOOD. lie Jumps on a Folice Captain and Earks Like a rabid Canine. WHAT THE TOLICE DID TESTEEDAT For 3 case of absolute incorrigibility Maggie Judy, of McKeesport, furnishes one of the most pronounced instances that the police of this city ever had to deal with. She was arrested at Xo. 20 Third avenue last mcht by Detective 3IcTighe, making the fifth lime in less than two years. Maggie Judy is the daughter of a well-to-i do family at McKecsport Her father holds t responsible position in the National Tube "Works and is one of the well-known men in that city. Maggie, being the eldest child, was given a good education and, until about three years ago, was considered one of the brightest young girls in the town She was given everything her fancv wished and her father's nurse could buv, and seemed happy and contented until just as she was budding into womanhood. Then her whole nature seemed to change, f he began to court evil associations, and her manner to her parents, instead of being respectful and kind, as it had been in the yast. became defiant and disagreeable. Maie Judy rirst Disappearance. She refused to obey their wishes in every va . and finallv capped the climax by sud denlv disappearing from her home without having a scrap to indicate what had be citrc of her. The oung girl had been taught to use the typewriter and for a short time was era ploiedinone of the newspaper offices in McKecsport, and after she had gone her j aeits supposed she had come to this city to earn her own living. They quietly made a search for her among the business houses b re. hoping to find her, but intending to let her alone if they found her conducting brrself properly. But their search was fruitless and finallv they learned through an associate that she was living on Third nvenue. Inspector McAleese was notified, and in a fe-r hours the girl was found and taken to Central station, where she met her mother. The meeting, on the mother's side, was most affecting, and even the detective?, ac cuMonied to such scenes as they were, could scarcely restrain the tears. l:o Promised to Do Better. The girl, though only a trifle over 16, was rirrnoved by her mother's grief, and when confronted with a proposition either to re tnrn to her own good home or to the Home p th Good Shepherd at Columbus, O., she instantly decided to go to the latter. Iietective Coulson took her to Columbus oe-u day. She remained there for a year, and then professing penitence and a desire t live a correct life wa3 given permission to c home. Her parents, were delighted ove- her apparent reform. They bought her an elegant piano, fine raiment and cvervthin; she desired, and for several months she gave them little reason to com piain. Finally, however, she began to drift back to her old ways and evil com panions, and one night "the again disap peared. Tne police here were notified and tl e nett day she was found at Xo. 20 Third avenue She was placed in the Home of the Crood Shepherd in Allegheny this time, rut in i few weeks, in company with the c ughtcr of a prominent oil man, escaped fiom the institution. They were both fiund back at 20 Third avenue a few days luTer and returned to the Home, but a lew w -eks afterward she again escaped, but was r captured at the same house. The Sisters Rrfuse to Itccelve Her. Ti time, it was the 20th of March last, ti.e authorities at the Home refused to ad B.it her and the police decided to send her f the Mnrganza Keform School, but she iirgtred so hard and promised so much that, tr.ughthe efforts of Sergeant Gray and Jf ective Itobinson. who took an interest T the srirl, her mother contented to let her r-me home once more. It was the same fid story over again, however, and last 1 lmrday she left her home as she had bc i rc Last night he was lound at her old s nmiby, No 20 Third avenue, by Detective MrTicriie. and is now in Central Station. The girl has a nrcporessing appearance, 1 t a refined manner, and to judge from her 1 nks one would never suspect her h vtory was so dark. She has reached that s age now where she cares nothing for the fnture, and, although she abhors the idea ot T-Iirganza, will make no promises to re .(tiii. It is likely she will be sent there tc fja.

A Jeweler's Explanation or the Cause of Ills Strange Actions A Demented Prisoner Leaves a Washington County Officer la the lurch A Wandering Woman. There are two insane persons at the Cen tral station and the police are looking for another who escaped lrom an officer on Sat urday. Captain TJnterbaum had a queer experi ence with a young inebriate on Smithfield street last night As he crossed Seventh avenue the Captain passed the young fel low who was walking quietly along, but the instant the officer's back was turned he wheeled and jumped upon hira barking like a dog and scaring the Captain nearly to death. Unterbaum turned quickly and seized the man by the throat, but he then began to yell and fight like an Indian, attracting a big crowd who thought he was being abused. Lieutenant Gallant and Officer Costello came running up and assisted in taking the young man to Central station, where he was recognized as Charles Blank, a jeweler, who on the first of this month moved into a store at Penn avenue and Twentieth street. His goods still lie in the store just as they were dumped from the wagon, and the police say he has been spending his time in drinking. It is thought he is bor dering on delirium tremens. He told Ser geant Gray last night that he was full of dog blood and could not help jumping on the captain. An official of 'Washington county reported the loss of a prisoner at the Central station vesterday. The official who failed to give his name, said he was on his way from Coal Center to the "Washington County Alms house on Saturday with a man named John P. Underwood, an Englishman, slightly demented. He was met here by an uncle of his charge who lives on Mt. Washing ton. They were waiting in the Panhandle Railroad station on the Southside, and during the officer's temporary absence, Underwood suddenly ran out of the station and across the bridge to the city. The uncle followed but could not catch him and be made good his escape. Mrs. Annie Stantou, 60 years of age and slightly demented, was turned over to her daughter, Mrs. Torabey, of Market street, Allegheny, yesterday by the police of this city.

He is one of the largest grain operators in the "Windy City. Mr. Kent thinks the prospects for the com ing crops are very good, even if the winter has been a little unfavorable. The Govern ment reports are not so encouraging as they were a year ago, but he says the country can stand a slight reduction in the output of corn and breadstuff's without much damage being done. Like all Chicago men he raves about the World's Fair, and declares it will be the greatest Exposition the w orld has seen.

They Declare That Two of the Councilmen Must Eesign. WALTER LT0N WARNED KOT TO SPEAK To-night the citizens of the First ward, Millvale, will hold an indignation meeting to protest against the action of its Council men in the matter of the street railway ordinances. It promises to be as interesting and exciting as the recent Harrisburg Dem ocratic Convention. The Third ward meeting Saturday night left many scars of the fight On every street corner crowds gathered yesterday, recited the happenings and commented on them. The more they talked the madder they became at the Councilmen who, they said, did not stick to their pledge. In one of these knots Burgess John C. Keed was found. He was cool and calm, but perfectly pronounced in his opinions. "I cannot help but believe," said he, "that several of the Councilmen have been won over by the bob-tail line. History or the Street Car Fight. "The history of this fight, which broke out in a riot last night, dates back several years, but has only began to boil since January L Some five years ago, the Mill vale Borough Council granted the Millvale Street Kailway, or the 'bob-tail' line, a franchise to operate a street railway. That company had never laid a rail or carried a passenger up to January L On this account the present Council considered the ordinance giving it the right of way null and void, when the proposed Millvale, Etna and Sharpsburg Company asked for right of way. "The "bob-tail line had never done any thing to connect us with Pittsburg, and when the Pittsburg, Allegheny and Man chester Company offered this extension we saw in it a good thing. It offered to haul us from Millvale to the city terminus, Lib erty avenue and Market street, for 5 cents, and agree to all the conditions we asked. We could not ask for a more reasonable oiler. Granted Privileges to the Manchester. "Council unanimously passed the ordi nance giving this road the right of way at the first reading. This was prior to the 18th of April. On that date, Council held a special meeting and the members from the First and Third wards announced their intention of voting against the ordinance. This is what started the trouble. "It was about the 1st of Jannarv that the Pittsburg, Allegheny and Manchester asked for right of way. The citizens of the town were anxious that it should receive the franchises. In February the borough election was held and the issue was the street car ordinance, the citizens of the town, almost to a man, being in favor of the Pittsburg, Allegheny and Manchester entering the town. The councilmen pledged themselves to vote for this ordinance, and had thev not put them selves on record they would not have been elected. The two councilmen and myself in the Second ward have always stood up for the ordinance, but the other four men have been bought by the 'bob-tail' line. Thinks It Is a Freezeont. "This line is represented by "Walter Lyon, Esq., and I think the only tiling they want to do is to keep the Pittsburg, Allegheny and Manchester out of town. It is not the intention of the old company to build. That company never moved a car until January 1. It then got hold of the tracks on Forty third street from Butler street to the Mill vale borough line. It bought these from the old Transverse Company, so you see it had never laid a foot of track. To run this horse car it was necessary to have a switch on the borough's ground. About January 2, the company tried to lay this switch and I had the workmen arrested. From then up to the 18th of the month there was a constant warfare between the company and the borough. I then thought it better to quit arresting the men and filed a bill in equity against the company to test its right in the streets. The case will be heard in two or three weeks. In this way the com pany was stopped. A Difference of Opinion. "Attorney Lyon was borough solicitor for Millvale up to the time the Pittsburg, Allegheny and Manchester ordinance passed first reading. He then resigned and became attorney for the 'bob tail" line. At the meeting on Saturday night he said that if the ordinance was passed, it would not hold good, but our attorneys do not agree with him. The Pleasant Valley has offered to come into the borough, but it has not made any promises so good as the Pittsburg, Alle gheny and Manchester. If is not being considered. The citizens will ask the First and Third ward Councilmen to resign, if they continue to stand out against the or dinance at the meeting next week. The Third ward people voted to a man in favor of it last night and the First ward meeting to-night will certainly end the same way." The people of the town are loud in their denunciation of Mr. Lyon and a number of them said vesterday there would be serious trouble it lie attempted to speak to-night CONGRATULATED THE C0UBT. The Pittsburg C. T. A. V. Pleased With the Decrease of Saloons. The License Court was congratulated last night upon its success in reducing the num ber of baloons in the two cities. The con gratulations were extended in a resolution adopted by the Pittsburg Catholic Total Abstinence Union at their regular monthly meeting held at St. Bridget's Church. The resolution was as follows: Whereas, The annual term of tie Li cense Court having expired, ami the result of its iabor being a decrease in tho number of the license granted, it is hcrebv, Kesolved, That the Catholic Total Absti nence Union ot Pittsburg congratulate the Honorable Court on the thoroughness or its woik und express its gratification at tlie wisdom of the Court in lessening the num ber ot the licenses granted. THEY HAVE A GSIEVANCE. Tho Garment Workers Tryinc to Effect a Stronger Organization. The Garment "Workers' Union, of Pitts burg, held a mass meeting last night and about 100 men were present The gather ing was for the purpose of devising "better methods of strengthening their organiza tion. The garment makers of Pittsburg have been organized about & year and they claim their condition is growing daily worse. They say they used to get fl for making a coat and now they only get 03 cents and have to put more work on it He Doesnt Like Reporters. Robert Moorhead, a Glasgow iron man, registered at the Seventh Avenue yester day. He is not accustomed to the Ameri can stvle of interviewing, and while he was polite, and commended the activity of leporters, he intimated that he would like them better if they were exiled to Siberia or the heart of Africa. By dint of indirect questioning it was learned that Robert McAfee, foreman of Oliver's Woods' Bun mills, lormerly worked for him, and he came to Pittsburg to see him. He is on a trip around the world. .i Correction. A typographical error made in tho Sunday advertisement of J.is. J. Wcldon, the giocer, Xo. 201 Market street, offers six sacks of flour lor $4 7-. It should havo been four sacks for that sum. Low as Mr. Wcldon Is able to make his prices, it would be clearly out of reason to expect him to sell six sacks of flour for the amount named. PITTSBURG DISPATCH NEW STEEL PIPE PROCESS. Charles Carlson lias an Invention for Mak ing Tubes Direct From Bars Iron to Be Crowded Out of Another Industry Converse Is Backing, niin. Charles Carlson, a well-known McKees port inventor, has completed an invention which, he claims, will revolutionize the pipe industry. He has associated with him General Manager Converse, of theXational Tube "Works, and J. B. Johnson. He is the inventor of the hydraulic hoisting table now used at rolls. The invention is intended to make steel pipes and tubes direct from a solid round steel bar, and will do away with the rolling into a plate, as is necessary to-day. That Mr. Converse is interested with Mr. John son is believed here to be an assurance ot its success. The machines are being fitted up here, and will soon be in readiness for a test There will be at least six of the ma chines tried in the National Tube "Works, each machine being capable of making pipes of different lengths and thicknesses, from the smallest to the largest The steel bar, at white heat, will enter the machines solid, and when it emerges all that is to be done to complete it is to thread it, which process is one of the easiest in pipe making. The lengths of the tubes are regulated bv the sizes and lengths of the iron bars. Tne process, of course, does away iith the rolling and welding pro cesses now in use. General Manager Converse has great faith in the machines. They have two of them already made, which can turn out tubing six feet long, and when the remain der are finished he believes the best results will be accomplished. If their process is successful, it means that steel tubes will supplant wrought iron pipes. THE DOUBLE-BECKED CAB. Its First Trips Making It Very Popular in Pittsburg. The big double-decked car on the Pitts burg Traction line was run for the first time yesterday. To use a theatrical expression, it has "caught on in great shape." Both conductors were kept busy keeping the people off. The new car is just a little longer than the regulation grip car and the lower part is about the same height as the others. It was built bv the J. G. Brill Company, of Philadelphia. The ceiling is bell shaped on the side, thus giving plenty of space for ventilation, and the crest of the bell forms the seats above on the top deck. The coach is on the summer-car style, with the seats back to back. The gripman occupies the same relative position that he does in the summer cars. save that he is com pletely shut in and the entrance to his cab is from the front The lamps are arranged like the old ones in the horse cars, one in the rear of the car and the other in the rear of the gripman's cab. A spiral stairway, made entirely of iron, winds up from the rear platform. It is protected by guard rails. On the upper deck the seats are the same as below and a nickel-plated rail, three feet high, runs around the whole way. There is no protection from sun or rain, because if there were the car could not pass under the archway at the East Liberty station. As it is now a part of the arch had to be cut away in order to let the cars through, and all the passengers are com pelled to get out before the car enters the station for fear of some accident The double-decked car on the Fifth ave nue line made seven trips yesterday, and carried 1,130 people. The management is greatly pleased with the showing, but they are not sure that the car will be a howling success. The novelty is great, and the car may not be in such demand after it wears off. AN ELKS' BEST. The Local Lodge After a Plot ot Ground in the Homewocd Cemetery. A committee from the Elks was at the Homewood Cemetery yesterday looting over a plot of ground for an Elks' rest In the party were George Mashey, Levy De "Wolf, George Meyer, Jr. and William Lee. The managers ot the cemetery were asked to send in a bid for a plot not less than 60 feet square. The committee was very much pleased with a site near the Clark mausoleum. A visit was also paid to the Allegheny cemetery, but the committee was afraid the price asked would be too high. The object is to secure a common place of burial for members of the local lodge. The organization in New York, Chicago and some of the other cities control cemeteries where their dead are interred. If the prices are not too high, a plot of ground will be bought in Pittsburg. ABOUT SUGAR. Grocers and the Trust A Pithy Commnnl ration. Editor Pennsylvania Grocer: I wish to call your attention to an article in your last week's issue with the above heading, which is most decidedly mis leading. It is an old saying that "Small dogs make the most noise." This will apply to the self-styled "Wholesale Grocers' Associa tion of Pittsburg and Allegheny. I wish it distinctly understood that I am in the wholesale grocery and flour business in Pittsburg and propose to stay for a time. I am not a member of any grocer or other organization to drive business from our city. Furthermore, I consider myself competent to make my own prices, particularly on sugar, groceries and flour, and to do busi ness in my own way; also to allow any dis counts I may consider advisable to make for cash.

MONDAY APRIL 25, THE POOR FARM DEAL Meets With Opposition From Mayor Gonrley, Who Says the CITY IS NOT A LAND SPECULATOR. Advice to -Alexander to Sell His Property and Make Money. WHAT CITI COUNCILS MAT DO T0-DAI An interesting meeting is expected in Pittsburg Councils this afternoon and there will probably be some edifying discussions in both branches. In Common Council the report of the Finance Committee will include a negative recommendation of Mr. O'Donnell's audit resolution and a favorable report on Mr. Holliday's ordinance relating to the same subject. The two measures were entirely different in character when referred to the committee, but an amendment to Holliday's ordinance providing that no limit shall be placed on the number ot years the auditors shall run back on the city's accounts will probably satisfy Mr. O'Donnell, and receive his support. It may not suit Mr. Holliday, however, and either way there is expected to be some sharp talk. In the Select branch the garbage ordin ance will come up for action with a favora ble report from the Public "Works Commit tee. Chiefs Brown and Bigelow are dissat isfied with the ordinance as it stands, and if it is passed at all it will be radically amended. A Bonanza In City Garbage. The impression prevails that the ordin ance would be a big bonanza for the gentle men who are asking its passage in its pres ent shape, and that the beneficiaries give less than nothing in return for the favors they would receive. Mayor Gourley has also announced opposition to the ordinance unless several important changes are made in it, though he, like the other officials, thinks that the proposed way of disposing of the garbage is the best ever suggested in this city. In some shape the Poor Farm question is also expected to come tip. The growing fear of a squeeze in available real estate for Poor Farm purposes by speculators has reached Councilmen. The Charities Com mittee, after the City Attorney's opinion, hare no business before them and can do nothing unless Councils refer to them an or dinance or resolution bearing on the mat ter, and it is expeqted that some such docu ment will be presented to-day. "Whether the City Attorney's suggestion to formally reject the option on the Alexander farm and readvertise for proposals is adopted or not could not yesterday be learned. The Major on the Alexander Option. Mayor Gourley agrees with Major More- land that it would be dangerous to attempt to hold Alexander to his option alter wait ing so long and doing nothing with it. The Mayor is opposed to the Alexander farm anyhow, on account of its cost. In speaking of "the matter yesterday he said: "I am satisfied that Councils have for feited any right to hold Alexander to his option, and I believe he could legally sell the property to-morrow to any other person without regard to the city. If he has the big offers lor the property that have been talked about, he is foolish not to accept them and close it out, I don't say the prop erty is not worth all tho city has been asked for it as an investment. I fully agree with Chief Elliot that in 15 or 20 years the place will be worth many thousands more than it is to-day, and that the city could then sell it tor a profit I have seen the farm, and don't believe the statements made that it is poor, swampy land and unfit on that account for Poor Farm purposes. In fact, I believe it to be an excellent tract of land and worth all the money asked for it. But I don't think the citv would be justified in paying 5300 an acre for a Poor arm,even n it were worm twice tne money. I don't believe the city needs more than 100 or 150 acres forher pauper and insane wards, and I do believe that a tract of that size suitable in every respect could be bought for $100 an acre or less. No Necessity for a River Front. "I see no necessity for a river front prop erty for a Poor Farm, and I don't thinfe the city should buy one. There is plenty of property within 15 or 20 miles of the city, in Allegheny county, well situated as to railroad and drainage facilities, which can be bought for less than $100 an acre. Ad joining my farm in Pine township, 15 miles from the city and near the Pittsburg and AVestern Bailroad, is a tract of good land which has been oflered to me at a price approximating $50 an acre, and there is more of it out there that could be bought for less. This I know to be a fact. Now, if we can get good land within 15 miles for S50, we should be able to get much better at $100, and I believe we can if we wish. "As to the Alexander farm, it might be a good investment for me or any other indi vidual to buy, cat up into lots and sell again. I have no doubt a lot of money could be made out of it that wav or even by holding it a few years and selling it in bulk, but the city is not in the real estate business. "We don't want to buy a farm, spend thousands of dollars in the erection of buildings and improving the ground, and then turn around, buy another farm and go through the same process again in 15 years, even if we could make money out of it "We should buy a farm and build on it for a 50 years' expectancy at least." IT WAS HIS SON. W. F. Patterson Is Fully Identified by Bis Father. The body of "W. F. Patterson, the young man who was killed at Memphis, Tenn., Friday, was brought to the city yesterday. It proved tobe the remains of ex-Postmaster Patterson's son. Up to the time the body reached Pitts burg the father did not know whether it was his son. Saturday all day he tried to get something definite concerning the acci dent, bnt could not He was kept in this awful suspense until he looked at the corpse.

PUSHING STONE'S BILL Securing Slcnatnres to Indorsements to the Bill Restricting Immigration labor Ors.tnlzatlons Taking a Hand Oppo sition From Atlantic Steamboat Com panies. The Stono immigration bill has been strongly indorsed by a number of leading men in various parts of the country, and the work of securing petitions to be pre sented to Congress is to be pushed rapidly. The window glass workers, who have been enlisted in the work, will send in petitions to the representatives of 55 Congressional districts in various parts of the country. All the local lodges of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers in Pennsylvania are interested and are adding their efforts to the movement. The chief opposition to the bill is said to come from the steamship companies. They want a clause inserted in the bill providing that the examination of immigrants be con ducted tinder the direction of, and perhaps by, the officials of these companies, instead of by Government consular agents. To counteract this opposition circulars will be sent out broadcast asking for petitions, and it is expected that within 60 days Congress will be deluged with them, signed by hun dreds of thousands of persons representing labor, patriotic and other organizations, asking for the passage ot the bill. The local organization which is pushing the boom for the bill have received letters from T. V. Powderly, Dr. Miller, of "Waynesburg College; Chancellor Holland, P. M. Arthur, and others equally promi nent, pledging their support to the'bill and stating their reasons for it in forcible, direct language that shows their sincerity. THE OAT IN THE PAEKi How the Two Cities Enjoyed the Great Breathlnc Spots. The parks of Allegheny presented a most gala-day appearance yesterday afternoon, notwithstanding the active, unshorn wind that capered about Kibbons of all colors, shades, varieties and prices fluttered in the breezes as gaily-dressed maidens tripped along the winding paths upon the arms of their hard-handed, though spring-beclothed, companions. There were maidens with the fresh bloom of youth, and maidens with the fresher bloom of artifice, perambulating along, ogling, smiling and flirting. There were also youths of the other sex, with the bloom of freshness all about them. They also ogled, and occasion ally they became so bold that they threw down their cigarettes and tipped their bats and then , well, another couple joined the proroenaders. The conservatory was thronged the greater part of the afternoon and the breezes were not thought of. The street railways carried hundred ot peonle to Schenley and Highland parks yes terday. The former had the call. Hund reds enjoyed the beauties of Pittsburg's breathing place. The grass is just getting a rich green and the dandelions spot it here and there with gold.

Kennedy, of Alle gheny, Has His Own Ideas of THE PROPER DDTIES OP A MAYOR. Kames of Two Aldermen Mentioned Who May Hold the Hearings. FEATURES OP TUESDAY'S ELECTION Major "William JL Kennedy, who will be elected Mayor of Allegheny to-morrow, will not conduct magisterial hearings when he is ensconced in the chair of the Mayor alty of Allegheny. Such is the burthen of the rumors about City Hall and among politicians, and the question is eagerly asked: "Who will con duct the hearings?" The City of Allegheny, being a city of the second class, is entitled to five magis trates, each to bs appointed to some par ticular district and to be paid a yearly salary, and the fees of the officers are to be turned into the citygovernment Notwith standing this law, the Council has not yet made any appropiations for the salaries of the magistrates and the entire criminal business has been done by the acting Mayor. The dignity of the Mayoralty is considered by Mr. Kennedy, and he will not permit that dignity to be affected by hearing cases of common drinks, family quarrels and other petty offenses in his office. Two Alternatives to Choose From. This conclusion leaves two alternatives open for him. Either the appointment of five magistrates, whose salaries may subse quently be appropriated, and districts ac corded by the City Council, or the appoint ment of some aldermen to conduct the hear ings until Council makes such arrangements. The latter course will probably be the one pursued by Mavor Kennedy. At present there are but two aldermen spoken of as the prospective appointees, E. L. Braun, of the First ward, and D. McKelvev, of the Second ward. Both of these officials are men ot conservative judgment and thoroughly conversant with the duties of the office. Alderman Mc Kelvey's chances for the office do not seem to be as good as are those of Alderman Braun. McKelvey was closely intimate with ex-Mayor "Wyman and this fact may tend to prejudice Mayor Kennedy against him. As lor Alderman Braun, the remain ing "possibility," his chances seem good. His light against iniquity in the First ward has had a good effect, as his work was more effective than was anticipated. An Opportunity for Good Gaessers. The question could not be answered last night, as the Mayor-elect was out of the city and will nonreturn until to-day. Dur ing the interim political gossipers are busy wondering. The election for Mayor will be held to morrow. Although 'Mr. Kennedy is the only candidate, the election will be carried on with due formality, and, moreover, will be conducted, for the first time in Alle gheny City, under the Baker ballot law, which is built upon the Australian system. "While but little interest will attach to the balloting, it will give the citizens of Alle gheny an opportunity to practice up a little tor the November election, when each bal lot will represent a freeman's opinion of the proper method ot government. A feature of election is the closing of saloons on that dav, as on Sunday. Men who can calmly pas open saloon doors on other days and drink ice water with satis faction, acquire a thirst that can only be quenched by alcoholic refreshments. For that reason a large influx of Alleghcnians is expected in this city, where there will be no election on that dav, and where the sa loons will be open. The street car compa nies anticipate a large business, which will be increased by visitors to the baseball game, who will have no incentive to walk when the saloons are closed.
