THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH. FRIDAY, MAT 13 189a T SILVER WON'T 001, The Free Coinage Agitation Showing Its Head on Every Occasion. GETTING TEKY TIRESOME, But Determined Advocates Insist Upon Keeping It Prominent. ONLY CONVENTIONS CAN STOP IT, And Maybe It Will Take an Election to lay the Obstinate Ghost QUAT OS THE KITER AND HARBOR WORK Bureau or The Dispatch. J Washis qtos, D. C. aiay 12. In one 'way or another the silver agitation will be kept up in the House of Represent atives and the Senate until after the meet ing of the Rational Convention. In the Senate no bill now pending may be reached and no vote may be taken, but the speeches will be numerous, long, intricate and prosy, like that of Senator Peffer to-day, and like those of Stewart, Morgan, Teller and others on other days. It has all grown exceedingly tiresome, this monetary discussion, hut it will be kept up for purposes of agitation, and days and weeks will yet be wasted upon it, with little hop of passing any bill, ex cept, perhaps, one providing, as far as this country can, for an international monetary conference. In the House the ill feeling between the silver and anti-silver factions, as is well un derstood, is only sleeping. It is not dead. The scheme of the sil er men now is to offer free silver amendments to appropriation and other bills, and get in telling little speeches upon them, and then, just previous to the Democratic convention, make a new and sensational attempt to secure a rule fixing a day tor a final vote upon the Bland silver bill. Enthusiasm of Free Coinage Men. Representative Pierce, of Tennessee, who has in hand the work of circulating a peti tion asking the Committee on Rules to re port such au order, has within six of the necessary 115 Democratic signatures, and tells me that he will certainly have the re mainder when they are wanted. "Whether he succeeds or not, and whether the order for a final vote be reported or not, there is certain to be a demonstration which will arouse the enthusiasm of the free coinage advocates in every part of the country for effect npon the National Convention. A tremendous effort, it is predicted, will be made in that convention to commit the Democratic party absolutely to free coinage, and the free coinage element in Congress is expected to keep the ball rolling there, that the delegates may be spurred to their best efforts. Free coinage members of Congress re flooded with communications by mail and telegraph, urging them to do their ut most to stir up the question during a week or two preceding the convention. Little Hope of Many of the Leaders. Privately, however, many of the leading free coinage spirits admit they have little hope of seeing a free coinage plank in the Democratic platform. They say that the blight of cowardice and conservatism is seen everywhere among the leaders, and that it is more than nrobable the monetary plank. which, of course, must appear income shape, will be a glittering cenerality, signifying nothing definite, and possibly quite similar to the utterance of the Republican platform on the same subject One Democrat advances the unique opin ion that the Republicans can prononnce even more plainly than the Democrats for a liberal treatment of silver without injury to their party in the campaign, as the money kings of the Bast, and the people generally who are devoted to the gold standard, would fully understand that liberal promises would be followed by no performance in Congress. On the other hand, any pledge made by the Democratic Convention would be enforced in Congress to the utmost de gree. If anything which can he construed into even an indirect indorsement of free coin age be adopted by the Democratic Conven tion, a desperate effort will be made to call up and pass the Bland bill before the ad journment of Congress. Anxiety of Leaders In the Bast. This will make leaders in the East ex ceedingly anxious to give forth a monetary plank which will satisfy the rank and file of the silver people of the South and "West with words while saying nothing to the rea son. It is admitted, however, that this will have to be done with the extremest nicety, as the people as a mass have well learned the meaning of words on this question, and will not be easily fooled. So thoroughly had the Senate Committee on Commerce considered the river and harbor bill after its introduction but before its passage in the House that it required little labor to prepare it for introduction in the Senate. Its consideration in the com mittee was finished to-day, and it will prob ably be introduced to-morrow. The Senate is so accustomed to increase the aopropria tions recommended by the House that the committee could not resist the temptation even in this instance, and upward of 1,000, 000 was added to the more than 521,000.000 which was sent through the House o er the head of Economist Holman.

The State "World's Fair Commission Holds an Important Meeting at Harrlsbnre A. New Effort to Be Made for Oil and Coal Privileges. Harrisbcrg, May 12. The Executive Committee of the "World's Fair Commission met to-day. On motion of Executive Com missioner Farquahar, the committee au thorfzed that officer to appoint a suitable person to take charge of the Pennsylvania exhibits on their arrival at Chicago and place them in position. The sum of 550 per month was appropriated for the Pittsburg office for woman's work. The appropriations for some of the commit tees weer changed ai follows: Horticulture, $12,000, instead of $7,000; live stock, 54,000, from 53,000; machinery, 52,000, from 55,000; manufactures, 52,500," from 55,000; elec tricity, 51,500, from 52,000; fine arts, 57,500, from 58,000; public institutions, schools and printing, 517,500, from 517,000; State ex hibits of scientific collections, 53,000, from 510,000. Mr. "Whitman reported that the conclu sion has been reached that nothing farther will be required from the board in respect to the Departments of Machinery, Trans portation, Manufactures and Electricity than a continuance of the efforts already put forth to awaken the interest of the various firms, corpora tions and individuals throughout the State. All such exhibits will be on private or corporate account, free from any expenses to the board. The collection of native birds and animals, now stored in the main Capitol building, is regarded as a desirable feature of the State exhibit. The recommendations of the committee represented by Mr. "Whitman were adopted, including one giving the Executive Com missioner power to approve all vouchers for salaries ot employes and expenses, in ad dition to the requirements heretofore adopted. Senator Emery reported the failure of the special Committee on Oils and Oases to get any consideration from the National Com missioners, and a special committee was appointed, consisting ot the Governor, Ex excutive Commissioner Farauahar and Messrs. Emery and "Williams, to proceed to Chicago and present to the National Com mittee plans of the proposed coal'and oil exhibits. A resolution was offered appro priating 55,000 for the decoration of the in terior of the Pennsylvania building. The Executive Commissioner was authorized to make arrangements for the participation of the "World's Fair Board of this State at the opening ceremonies at Chicago in October. ANARCHISTS ON DECK.

Ward McAllister's Boiled-Down 400 Re ceives an Addition of One Bis Pet Son Was Married rive Tears Ago and Just Tells His Fa About It. 2Jew York, May 12, SpeciaL A no tice was sent to the newspapers this even ing announcing the marriage of Heyward Hall McAllister, of this city, and Miss Janie Champion Garmany, of Savannah, Ga. There are two interesting things about this notice the first that it breaks the news of a ceremony which took place in August, five years ago, and the second that the bridegroom is the son of the only "Ward McAllister, the inventor of the 400 and the man who boiled them down to 150. The son is about 32 years of age, tall and good looking, a member of the Union Club and the Calumet Club, and secretary of a down town company. Just why the notice was sen out'at this time could not be learned to-night. Mr. "Ward McAllister paused in his evening's word of revising a typewritten copy of the family history to talk with the reporter. He said he really could say very little about the marriage ot Ins son, except that the an nouncement of it came as a surprise to him on .Friday last. He tho'ught that Heyward, who is 32 years old, should have learned to support himself before taking a wife, whereas his father has been supporting him, supposing him to be a bachelor. It would not matter if the wife were worth millions; he would still insist that the young man shonld hare been self-supporting. Mr. McAllister would not say why he objected to it He intimated that he did not lice the irregularity of it He said also that he had never seen young Mrs. McAllister.

Garmany, who died several years ago, made much money by invest ments in real estate, and the family is well-to-do. BudA-Pesth, May 12. A great sensa tion was caused to-day by an explosion that occurred in Andrassey street, one of the most fashionable thoroughfares. Not the least doubt is entertained that the explosion was the work of Anarchists, and it is taken as an Indication that that organization is about to resume its outrages. Through Andrassey street runs an electric railway. As one of the cars was rapidly moving along this morning, there was a sudden jar, followed almost instantaneously by a terrific roar. The shock was very great, and the people in the car, which was crowded to its fullest capacity, were ter ribly frightened. At first it was thought the affair was due to some derangement of the electrical apparatus, but an investiga tion showed that the explosion had been caused by a dynamite cartridge that had been concealed alongside the rail in such a manner that the flange of one of the wheels would stritcc and explode it A search along the line showed that seven other cartridges had been placed alongside the rails, but they had in some manner be come displaced bo the car wheels could not touch them. It was by this fortunate acci dent that a terrible disaster was averted, for had the cartridges exploded simultane ously tnere is no doubt the car would have been blown to pieces and many of its occu pants killed. As it was, the car wheel that struck the cartridge was blown off the axle and the bottom of the car was badly shat tered. Nearly all the passengers were more or lets severely bruised, but none of their injuries are fatal. The Anarchist Beala and the woman Soubert, who were acquitted at Paris of complicity with Ravachol in the recent trial, have been rearrested on the charge of complicity in the murder ot two women at St Etienne. A dispatch from Vienna says: There was a riot to-day in the town of Sezemetz, near Pardubitz, Bohemia. Five hundred work men, out of employment, after vainly de manding work from the authorities, sacked a number of shops, stealing all the money and goods they could lay their hands on, in cluding large quantities of brandy and to bacco. The riot was quelled by gendarmes, who arrested the leaders. A Paris correspondent says: A circular of the Anti-Anarchist League, now conduct ing a well organized vendetta, declares it is the Intention of the League to compass the murder of some well-known Anarchist for every future Anarchist outrage, by means of the knife, poison or vitriol. NEWFOUNDLAND SHUT OUT. It Can Only Act Diplomatically 'When the Canadian Simon Says Thumbs Up. London, May 12. In the House of Commons to-day, J. "W. Lowther, Parlia mentary Secretary of the Foreign Office, stated that the Government declines to give its assent to the convention between the United States and Newfoundland. The Government cannot depart from the position it had taken np some time since. The negotiations between the United States and Newfoundland must proceed pari passu with those between the United States and Canada. In reply to questions put on the snbfect. Mr. Lowther stated that the Government could not interfere with the Suez Canal Company for permitting the passage through the canal of tank steamers laden with petroleum in bulk. The company, he said, had sanctioned such traffic, and after July 1 next, petroleum-laden steamers would be allowed to pass through the canal. robbing the bankof 1,000,000 mark3, has been arrested. Pbemtek Loubet, of France, will represent tho Government at the funeral of M. Very, the restaurant proprietor who was killed by an Anarchist's bomb.

Duelist Hilbahk, who has gone to Paris to rejoin his family, says he desires to let the Drayton affair drop. His opponent in the tccent duel, ho says, was a French dip lomat. The latter was dangerously wounded, but is now recovering. The letter of the Propoganda Fide, ad' dressed to the American Bishops, in regard to the development or Archbishop Ireland's plan in rozard to paroohlal schools, main tains the decreesof the Council of Baltimore and approves of the actions of Archbishop Ireland. Herb Kkaess, an African traveler, vwrites to the Kretu Zeitung: "The German author ities in Togoland recently requested Chief Snlaga to drive me away and prevent my trading. This is equivalent to licensing them to murder me, and is duo to my having asserted that the slavo trade exists In Togo land." The London Timet' Borne correspondent says: "Whatever may be the final result of the Cabinet crisis, it is certain that it will be In favor of adieibnnd, because the country is convinced of the inveterate, Invincible antagonism between Franco and Italy, and that if Italy Is isolated she is bound to pro vide even stronger armaments than she now possesses." COOL UNDER A BOAST. Postmaster General Wanamaker Keeps His Temper Admirably. HE STICKS EIGHT TO HIS TEXT While on the Stand in the Baltimore Postoffice Investigation. WHAT LIE DOESN'T KNOW OP HIB W0EK AN ENGINEERING TRIUMPH. RUNNING A GOSPEL CAR, At the suggestion of Senator Quav some important changes were made in those features of the bill which are of special in terest to Pittsburg. He increased the ap propriation for the improvement of the harbor at Conneaut, O., from $25,000 to N0,000. He secured the insertion of the proposal for a survey for the Lake Erie and Ubio iiiver bhip Canal, which passed in a special bill yesterday, thus giving it a double chance for success. His amendment providing for a commission of five engi neers, to be appointed by the Secretary of "War, to examine and appraise the locks and dams of the Mononcahela Navigation Com pany, with a view to purchase by condem nation, in accordance with recommendation of the Pittsburg Coal Exchange, was ac cepted by the committee. There was also inserted a pro-ision for the location and purchase of sites for movable dams, Nos. 2, 3, 4 and 5, on the Ohio river, between the Beaver dam and the Davis Island dam. The changes are radical ones, but they will prob ably pass the Senate, and if the House re fuse to concur, the Senate committee on conference will almost undoubtedlv be so constituted that it will make a winning fight for them. The Canal Bill Back In the House. Senator Quay's bill providing for a survey for the proposed Lake Erie and Ohio river ship canal, which passed the Senate yesterday, was sent to the House this morning. Representative Dal zell requested that it be laid on the Speak er's table, but Tom Watson, the Georgia Alliance man who is now playing the role of the great objector, put in his negative, and it was thereupon referred to the Com mittee on Railways and Canals. Therefore, if any bill of this character be reported by this committee, it will probably be that of Representative Dalzell, out of compliment to that gentleman. It is not probable thit any bill of the kind will pass the House at this session, and if so the only chance for the survey will be in Senator Quty's amendment to the river and harbor bilL The Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds to-day reported favorably Rjpre sentative Daliell's bills providing for the erection of a postoffice at McKeesport, to A Novel Method of Spreading the Word Adopted in Connecticut. Ansojoa, Cojtn., May 12. Spcdd. L. P. Tibbals, a New York business man, feels that the back country towns are being neglected by the religious denominations, and in order to carry the gospel there has devised a scheme which will be put into operation next week. The Society of Chris tian "Workers, with headquarters in New Haven, has received from Mr. Tibbals a "gospel car," with which the tour of the towns will be made. Two evangelists will go with the car and hold meetings wherever they can secure anyone to listen to them. Only the smaller towns and villages will ba visited, places where there are no churches and no schoolhouse prayer meetines. The.car is about the size of an ordinary omnibus, except that it is a little wider. On the rear is a folding platform, from which the evangelists will speak. The vehicle is light and strong, and may easily be drawn by two horses. It will accommodate four persons besides the driver. One section may be transformed into a kitchen with cooking utensils. The other section is fitted up with bunks, and the floor is covered with a Turkish rug. The seats are upholstered in a dark red plush. Besides holding out-door meetings, Sunday schools will be organized in the schoolhouses. A big stock of Bibles will also be carried to be given to those unable to buy them. CHAMPION STEAMSHIPS. The Fnerst Bismarck Breaks Its Own and the World's Record by 10 Minutes. Southampton-, May 12. The steamer Fuerst Bismarck has lowered the eastern record by 19 minutes, making the trip from New York to the Needles in 6 days, 12 hours and 39 minutes. The former eastward record between New York and Southampton, which was beaten br the Fnerst Bismarck to-day, was 6 days, 12 hours and 53 minutes, made by the same steamship in June, 189L The Fuerst Bis marck also holds the westward record be tween the two ports. The Third Largest Cantilever Bridge in the World Formally Opened at Memphis The Main Structure 3,597 Feet Long and Bnllt or Solid Steel. Memphis, May 12. At high noon to-day, with impressive ceremonies, the great steel bridge across the Mississippi river at this point was formally declared open for traffic Among the features of the celebration was a parade, the display of the cruiser Concord and an oration by Senator Yoorhees. The bridge is located on the exact spot where Ferdinand De Soto crossed the Mississippi in 1511, and in excavating for the shore pier on the Tennessee side some Spanish halberds, supposed to have been used by him, were found. The structure was built by the Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham Railroad Company. It is the third largest of its kind in the world and stands as a magnificent memorial to the engineering genius of its builder, George S. Morrison. There are five spani and six piers, includ ing the anchorage pier, The East shore, or cantilever span, is 225.83 feet; the main span, consisting of two cantilever spans and one intermediate span, is 794.42 feet; one continuous span, 621.06, and one deck span, 33G.75 feet, makinga total length ot 2,597.12 feet in the bridge proper. The structure is extended west of the main bridge by an iron viaduct 3,500 feet in length, followed by a 3,100-foot timber trestle and nearly a mile of embankment to a junction with the existing track of the Kansas City and Mem phis Railway, a few hundred feet west of Sible, Ark. The river piers are sunk to depths varying from 75 to 131 feet below high water mark. All were sunk by the pneumatio caisson process, and are of masonry from the caissons to the bridge seats. The material of the main bridge is steel. OABZA OUTLAWS DESPERATE. They FOUR BOILERS GO "AT ONCE. A Terrific Explosion Which Kills Three Men and Fatally Irjares Another. Saginaw, Mich., May 12. About 2 o'clock this afternoon the little city of Mid land, 20 miles west of Saginaw, was shaken from center to circumference by the explo sion of a battery of four boilers of the saw mill of the Midland Salt and Lumber Com pany. The boiler house was detached from the mill and was completely wrecked. Con siderable damage was done to the sawmill. Three employes were killed. Them names are John Allen, fireman, thrown 200 feet, from the mill; Eugene Valkenburg and Dick Stears. The body of the latter was buried in the ruins but was subsequently recovered. Gus Malcolm, the fireman, was fatally hurt, and Arthur Robinson, E. P. Elton, Charles Blynn, Charles Burt, Albert Mall and Sanford Water were all more or less seriously injured. E. P. Elton was blown some distance from the mill, receiv ing a severe scalp wound. The cause of the accident has not been definitely ascertained, but it is charged to a defect in one of the boilers. The damage to the property will not exceed 57,000. The detonation was heard many miles away. A New Capitol Destroyed. Denver, May 12. ISpeciaL "Word has been received that the capitol at Santa Fe is burning. The building cost 5250,000, and was a very handsome structure.

Make for the Monntalns, bat Are Pursued and Defeated. Rio Grande Citt, Tex., May 12. "Word was received here last night that a fight had occurred between Mexican soldiers, under Lieutenant Yordalecio Sado, and a remnant of Garza's gang, under command of Julian Flores, Eustogio Rancon and others, at a place back of and above Mier, called La Mecca. Flores and a negro named Abalando and eight others were killed. No prisoners were taken. One of the soldiers is said to have been wounded and three horses killed. No revolutionary importance is attached in Mexico to the Garza men. "When Sheriff Sbely, his deputies and deputy marshals attacked them on the 15th of last month, the three remaining squads o (Revolutionists, under command of Santis Cadena Flores, had assembled to deliberate on a plan of crossing into Mexico, disbanding and hiding in the mountains. Cadena at that time had 9 men, Ramon 8 and Flores 22. These 42 men were those who joined Garza and were already outlaws in Mexico. They have now absolutely no refuge. Realization of that fact, and that their only salvation lay in being able to reach Mexico and hide in the mountains, led to their attempt to reach the mountains; but the Mexican Bide of the river is carefully guarded by the ranchers, who report all suspicious characters to the soldiers. After the battle the remainder of the gang fled toward the United States. The authorities on thiside have been notified and asked to send out troops to intercept them. t NEGLECTED AMERICAN CITIZENS. "Washington, May 12. The House Committee on Reform in the Civil Service to-day resumed the investigation of charges that certain Federal employes in Baltimore have violated the civil service law without incurring punishment Postmaster General Wanamakerappeared, bringing with him, at the request of the committee, the report of the Postoffice In spectors, giving the result of their Investi gation into the Baltimore postoffice. He said he desired to correct his former testi mony, so as to say that he regarded the question presented to him as a single ques tion, and not as a "small Question." refer ring to the question of veracity, which of course he would not so characterize. He had been informed that E. C. Perrine, rec ommended for removal, had never testified before the commission. Also, he desired to say, in view of the comment upon the time that elapsed be tween the investigation and the denials of the employes, that more than four months had elapsed after the commission's investi gation before the report reached the Presi dent, so that the men had had no oppor tunity to make an earlier answer to tne charges. ThePostmaster General said: "I have had no disposition to defend these men, but there were complaints arising, and I cannot personally investigate these cases. I turn them over to the proper officers, and must be governed by their reports." Gallt at One Time Admitted. Mr. Boatner It appears that these par ties were before the commission authorized to make this investigation. They admitted their guilt, aud the postmaster, whose duty it was under the law to dismiss these men because of their confessed violation of law, took no action at all, and when the matter came to you, instead of acting upon the con fessions ot the parties, you instituted another investigation for the purpose of en abling these people to deny what they had already admitted. The Postmaster General moved his hand in remonstrance while Mr. Boatner was putting this question, and then replied: "I respectfully protest against the statement that the Investigation was instituted tor the purpose of having these men deny. It is not the truth." Mr. Boatner But the report of the Civil Service Commission The Postmaster General It does not man age the Postoffice Department. Mr. Boatner Not to Be Sidetracked. Mr. Raines requested that the Postmaster General be permitted to proceed and read the statement he had prepared, but Mr. Boatner would not be diverted, and insisted that the committee wanted light upon the point he had suggested. ThePostmaster General had sent two inspectors to reinves tigate the matter, and, acting upon their report, had declined to dismiss the men. The postmaster had admitted that the men had confessed their guilt, and to exculpate himself had said that he was not responsi ble for it, "Now," said he, "I wish to know why this department ignored the recommenda tions of the commission and accepted the statements of these men, made in exonera tion of themselves, as having greater weight than the statements exculpating them." Mr. Raines pretested against this con struction, and he and Mr. Boatner had some words upon this point, but the latter in sisted that no matter how Mr. Raines un derstood the matter, he (Mr. Boatner) was stating the understanding of the committee. Mr. Wanamaker Quietly Firm. The Postmaster General quietly remarked that he had no information on the subject that he was not willing and anxious to lay before the committee. "But it is not true, said he, "that any attempt was made to shield these men, or that any unusual course has been pursued." The Inspectors' report upon which Mr. "Wanamaker based his action in the Balti more case was made by Chief Postoffice In spector "Wheeler and Inspector Sharp, No vember 24, 1891. "We are of the opinion," says the report, "that the facts do not justify the dismissal of the 21 men named, nor any one ot tnem, lor violation of the civil service law, as charged. The state ments of witness before Mr. Roosevelt, and upon which his recommendations were based, were taken at a time, under circum stances, and in a manner that justify us in saying that they were not proper material upon which to base recommendations for dismissal or severe criticisms." It further says tnat the evidence taken and accom panying Mr. Roosevelt's report Itself shows on its face that the Investigation was unfair and partial in the extreme. THE KEN WILL NOT 8TRIKE. Pittsburg and Western Employes Are No t at War With the Officials. There is no trouble anticipated by the officials of the Pittsburg and "Western Rail road on the part of their employes. It was reported yesterday that some COO con ductors, brakemen, flagmen and telegraph operators would strike if their salaries were not increased. Representatives of the company and men were seen yesterday, and they satd there was nothing in the story.
