THE PITTSBTJKG DISPATCH, FKLDAY MAY 6, '1892.
BUKDM TO BLOCK.
John. Harper Is Opposing a Scheme
to Widen Eighth Street.
OTHERS FEAR BIG ASSESSMENTS.
lYhat It Will Cost the City to Make an
Outlet for Wood Street.
OXLT TWO TEOPEKTIES ARE AFFECTED
Since the Liberty street fire on Saturday
swept away the John Harper buildinz at
Eighth street and damaged other buildings
in that locality, a movement has been
started to have Eighth street opened up to
full width from Liberty street to Penn ave
nue. The remainder of the street to the
river is already opened to the width of 40
feet It is claimed this is a cood time, as
the damages at present will be less than at
any other time. It is further claimed the
enormous increase in the city's business on
Penn avenue and the general growth of Pitts
burg demand it. This claim is backed by the
fact that both Seventh and Xinth streets
are so taken up by street railway tracks as
to be almost useless, as they are narrow
streets anyway. Besides this, an outlet is
needed for the immense traffic on "Wood
street, and the Penn avenue wholesale men
also want a beeter outlet to the river.
The talk at present is all of an informal
character, and as the owners of the prop
erty, who will bitterly oppose the opening,
are going on the jump, unless a move
ment is made very soon the place will be
. built up again, and the damages will be
enormous.
Only Two Properties Affected.
On the upper side the property is on the
same line clean to the river, hence the
street will have to be widened 20 feet on
the lower side. This affects but two proper
ties, the John Harper block on Liberty
street, and the lot known at Xo. 722 on
Penn avenue. It is ou ned by the McCune
estate and managed bv President It. S.
Smith, of the Union Kational Bank. The
McCune propertv is 20 feet iront by 120
leet deep, and hence the widening would
take the whole piece. Mrs. McCune owns
the block of 20 ieet right below, which
would be greatly benefited by the widen
ing. This property is valued at $2,000 per
front foot, while the Harper property on
Liberty street is valued at over $100,000.
The building on the McCune property is
allied at $25,000 more, which would make
the present cost of opening up the street at
least $105,000.
"While it is held that the widening is more
of a public than a private benefit, the abut
ting property owners are not moving fast
for fear ot heavy assessments for benefits.
Citv Attorney Moreland said yesterdav:
"The form for widening the street would
be for a majority of the abutting property
holders in number and interest to petition
Councils. This also includes the property
owners lrom Pcnii avenue to the river.
This would have to lie over for 60 days, and
then if there were no objections the court
could appoint viewers to condemn the prop
erty and assess benefits and damages. The
benefits ill not be confined alone to that
street, but will extend all around that
neighboihood."
A JJenrfH to tlio TVliole Cift-.
Charles Arbuthnot, of the firm of Ar
buthnot & Stephenson, is probably the per
son who would be the most benefited. His
property joins the Harper block on Lib
ertv street, and his new wholesale store is
at Eighth stieet and Penu. Yesterday he
mid: "As a city, Pittsburg should be
ashamed of such an outlet for "Wood street
as there is at present Eighth street should
be widened to the full width of a street I
do not know that I would be benefited
much more than anyone else. The widen
ing might make my Liberty street property
more valuable, but the greatest benefit
would be to the city in general. I would
like to see it done, but I am afraid the as
sessments for benefits would be very high.
There is much talk about making such a
movement, and I want to see it go through."
The X. J. Bradcn heirs are anxious to see
the street widened, but John Harper is
just as much opposed. He said: "I sup
nose the citv can condemn the proDertv.
but I will oppose it The widening would
take 20 leet and leave a strip of ten feet
that would be worthless, unless Charles
Arbuthnot would buy it
Its Value on tlie Jump.
""Wedo not want to give up the property,
for in a few years it will be worth a half
more than what it is now, and if it is con
demned its value as an investment will not
be considered. I do not believe that much
will be done. As soon as the place can
be cleaned up we will rebuild, and when it
comes to paying for a $60,000 building
on top of a $100,000 lot the people will not
be so anxious to have the street widened.
That street was closed up once by act of
Legislature. A lawyer here was paid
$1,000 by some people for getting the work
done and afterward someone paid him
that much more for having it re-opened. I
will do all I can to stop it"
It S. Smith, of the McCune estate, also
said he would oppose the opening. He
said if they only owned the 20 feet they
would be willing to sell it, but as they had
the adjoining property they are afraid the
benefit assessment will be too heavy. He
also argued that the benefit would be a pub
lic one. He also wants $40,000 for the lot
It is expected that the Standard Oil Com
pany will be one of the petitioners for the
w ideniug.
A Uniqne Contract.
One of the largest contracts with adver
tising agents ever made was recently en
tered into between Dr. W. H. Copeland,
President of the Copeland system, and E.
P. Remington, head of the house of Rem
ington Bros., advertising agents. The
amount of money involved was so large
and the terms ot the contract so novel as to
interest everv advertising man in the
country. Under the stipulations of this
contract Dr. Copeland is to place through
the house of Remington Bros., duringa
period of five years, advertising amounting
in gross value to the sum of $4,000,000. E.
P. Remington agrees to devote his personal
time and attention to the placing of every
line of this advertising. Dr. Copeland
agrees to place every line of the Copeland
System advertising tlirough this hous.e for
the period of the five years mentioned in
the contract, and binds himself to, under
no circumstances, directly or indirectly,
place advertising either direct or through
any other agency than that of Remington
Bros. The contract will go on record as
one of the heaviest ever made. Chicago

rasslDC Away of a Prominent Financier
and Railroad Man HI Connection
With Many Great Business Enterprises
Attempt to Monopolize tho Coal Trade.
"William P. Shinn, one of the most promi
nent financiers and railroad men of Western
Pennsylvania, died at his residence on
Penn avenue, Homestead, at 9 o'clock yes
terday morning, after an illness contracted
from a heavy cold early last winter. Com
plications followed, but it has only been
within a few days that a fatal termination
was expected. His brothers, Joseph A. and
John T. Shinn, were at his bedside when
death came.
Mr. Shinn has for years been a striking
character in the business world, his remark
able tact and energy making him a promi
nent place in financial enterprises of great
magnitude and spreading his reputation
among financiers throughout the country.
He was a native of Burlington, N. J., and
was born in May, 1834. At the age of 15 he
began the study of civil engineering, his
first efforts in that line being the prepara
tion of maps of Providence, It L, and Pall
River, Mass. On his lGth birthday
he came to this city and went to work as a
rodman on Ohio and Pennsylvania railways
engineer corps. Subsequently he followed
that occupation on several other lines be
tween Pittsburg and Port Wayne, Ind.,
until he finally settled with the Pittsburg,
Port "Wavne and Chicago Railway, on
which he rose in the operating service until,
in 1873, when he resigned, he was superin
tendent of -the eastern division and general
passenger aud freight agent Por six years
following he was general manager ot the
Edgar Thomson Steel "Works and a member
of the firm, and at the same time vice
president of the Allegheny Valley Railroad.
Prom 1888 to 1891 he was vice president
and general manager of the New York and
K"ew England Eailway Company. In 1890
he devoted much of his time to the Ameri
can Institute of Mining Engineers and the
American Society of Civil Engineers, being
president of both organizations. He was
the author of many valuable scientific pa
pers, especially pertaining to railroad man
agement The greatest financial scheme of his life
was one to buy up and monopolize the en
tire coal business ot "Western Pennsylvania,
and millions had been secured by the syndi
cate of which he was the head to carry It
through. The coal operators blocked the
scheme, however, and it fell through. He
died wealthy, surviving his wife only about
a year.

She Knew a Good Tiling.
"I think I'll have a loaf," said the cook as
she palled down bread pan and molding
board and set out her yeast and flour. "It's
funny how many times I loaf since I've been
using those splendid flours of our local mill,
that of the Marshall Kennedy Militate Com
pany. Their Camellia and Bayard Amber
make such splendid bread it is a positive
pleasure to Dake." And so it is wherever
Camellia and liayard Amber are usod. In
those homes splendid home made bread is
assured. The great point in favor of these
flours is their unvaiying regularity. One
half the bad bakings are duo to irregular
flour. One sack bakes all right, but the next
does not The conditions under which it
was milled changed, and hence the flour
needed different treatment from the baker
than the first sack. When using Camellia or
Baj ard Amber you can be assuied ono sack
is just like another, for tlieso flours are
tested every hour for regularity and baked
raclr day, so that a change in condition is
impossible
Look This Tray, Please,
Just long enough for us to tell you that there
will be a sale of lots at that bustling new
town of Aliquippa to-morrow. Eight lots
weie sold yesterday, and tlio steady, strong
demand for lots that has kept up since the
fiisc public sale has demonstrated that in
vestors arc of the same opinion as the pro
jectors, that Aliquippa is the place. Almost
one tmrd ot tne entire number or lots nave
been sold in three weeks. This tells the
story better than we can. A Slg steel mill, a
big shovel works, a big tin plate mill insure
a working population. That means a solid
town. Be at the sale and buy a lot, start in
business, build a house for sale or hold your
purchase for a sure raise In value. It will
prove money in your pocket. Plans can bo
seen and tickets secured at the office of the
Aliquippa Steel Company.Room SO, Westing
