Hon Ktfft? i&t& to Hake the Affair a Complete Access. OAKL1XD AKD EAST ISD DISPLAT6 Xotwithstandins the telejrram from "Wash ington, printed a couple of days ago, the Mayor and Chief Bigelow positively declare that President Harrison will be in Pittsburg on the Fourth ot July and that he will ad dress the assembled multitude at Schenley Park. Mr. Bigelow had a telegram, from which he seemed to draw the authority for his positive assertion, but he declined to how the message or to say from whence it came. He stated, however, that he had positive assurance and that The Dispatch would make no mistake in saying so. In addition to the President, one or two other speakers of national reputation are lnvited.and expected here with the Chief Executive. There will be no dearth of speeches. Congressmen Dalzell and Stone, of this district, have already accepted in vitations to be present, and thus far, Superintendent Luckey, representing the Pittsburg schools, Louis McMullen, repre senting Allegheny's schools, and Kev. John Holliday, representing the colored popula tion, are down for short speeches. trill Itrad the Grand Declaration. Prof. Sleeth, the High School elocu tionist, will open the exercises by reading the Declaration of Independence. As only two week? remain until the glorious Fourth the Mayor and Chief Bige low are rapidly proceeding with the ar rangements for the great holiday. Yester day they held a long conference in the Mayor's office, at which thev awarded to Heyl & Jones, of this city, the contract for J furnishing the fireworks display. It will cost S4.000, nearly double the display of last year, and Mr. Heyl promises it will be the finest ever given in Pennsylvania. Some beautiful set pieces are to form part of the programme, much larger and more ex pensive than any given last year. Four bands were selected yesterday for 4he day's music, those decided on being the Great Western, Cathedral, Select Knights and Hays Post bands. All are to be massed in one at the grand stand during the speech making and will form a grand accompani ment to the chorus of 1.500 school children who are being actively trained to sing na tional and patriotic airs as a part of the morning exercises. Training Tuneful Utile Voices. Superintendent Luckey is making great preparations for the event, and the little folks are accomplishing wonders, taking a deep interest in the part they are to play. Chiet Bigelow will show his love for chil dren and his regard for the ladies by pro viding 20 large wagons, with comfortable seats, Jn which the young and the fair will be carried through the park free of cost-all day long. The wagons will meet the people at the main entrance and carry them over to the points of interest until the crowd has reached the park, and after that will make trips around the drive ways all over the place. Men and boys are to be barred from this feature of the cele bration. The sporting events in the afternoon will be particularly interesting. An order was given by the Mayor yesterday for 20 gold medals and 13 of silver (or the winners in the -various contests. The medals are to be handsomely designed and will cost, the Mayor says, $250, insuring the participation of the best amateur talent in "Western Pennsylvania. All Contestants Mast Be Amateurs. Prof. Kirchner, Chairman of the Athletic Committee, has issued printed blanks upon which all apsiring contestants must file the applications, to certify that theyare amateurs according to the laws of the Xational A. A. U. A first and second prize will be given in each event. The list of events to be con tested for is as lollows: One-hundred-yard dash, 110-yard hurdle race, hop. step and jump, 220-yard dash, running high kick, putting 16-pound shot, 440-yard dash, onc rnile bicycle race, throwing 16-pound ham mer, one-half-mile run, two-mile bicycle race, sack race, one-mile run, running broad jump, tug of war (625 pounds limit, four men), pole and vaulting, running high jump. Prof. Geo. Fisher will have charge of an Interesting series of children's sports for which prizes will be given, also, including wheelbarrow, sack, foot and notuto races greased pig. greased pole and other events of that character. Thus far only $4,000 has been contributed for the celebration, including 525 each contributed by the Mayor and Jtobert Pitcairn yesterday. The Birming ham and Second Aenue Traction Companies are talking of adding $250 to the fund. Up to last night 52,000 more were seeded to bear the expenses of the dav, but the Mayor is so sanguine that the patriot ism of the people will bring the money to the front during the present week that he and Chief Bigelow became responsible for the fireworks contract let yesterday. IVant. People to Think and Contribute. "If the people will only send in contribu tions of 51 or 55 each, as "hundreds of them easily could and would if they took the time to think of it, we would have more money than we need," said the Mayor yes terday. "I look for a lot of small subscrip tions this week. I hope the importance of tnis celebration will be appreciated and the people out ot respect for the President, no less than ot patriotic enthusiasm for the day mere is money WRITING CAMPAIGN SONGS. Jndse Holmes Says It Is a Peculiar Gilt XUat Not Blany People Possess A Sud den Chance im Sentlmnnt Sometimes Spoilt a Song. Judge Holmes, of Syracuse, the Repub lican song writer, was in the city yesterday on his way home. The old man has been very successful in grinding out rhymes for the campaigns. He made quite a hit in 1888L He was verv confident that Blaine would be nomin ated and he bad prepared a numberof verses in anticipation of the event. Since then the words and music have gone into the waste basket, and the poet has been trying to make such difficult names as Harrison and Beid jingle in rhyme. "lama son, a son, a son of a gun it I vote for Harrison," was the best rhyming line that was sung before the convention was held", but goodness gracious, the sentiment won't go now with loyal Republicans. "It is a peculiar gift be to able to write verse," said the Judge, "and not many people possess it. To be successful in this work one must know all about music, and then write words to suit the notes or else make the music to agree with the lines. I usually take a familiar Gospel hymn, and turn it into a campaign song. A collection of these airs I call my political gospel. You must combine sentiment and humor to catch the people, and my aim is to inject as much wit as possible into the songs. In this campaign protection and reciprocity will be the leading features. Some im agine that reciprocity is a hard word to rhyme. My experience has been in writ ing songs that words of four syllables or more are the easiest to adapt to music." The old Judge couldn't conceal his dis appointment when Blaine was defeated. Lice many other people he thought the Maine man was a sure winner. WAITING FOR A MOVE. Amalgamated Hen and Manufactur ers Watching Each Other. DISCUSSING THE TIN PLATE SCALE. Belief That There Win Be No Giieral Strike in any JCrent MSB METIKG AT HOMESTEAD TO-DAY ME. JEHKS' LOGIC. He Provei to a Friend by Chinese Methods That Ho J a Fine Penman. The friends of ex-Solicitor General George A. Jenks have a good deal of fun with him abont his penmanship. His sig nature on a hotel register looks more like the zig-zag scratching of a hen than anything else. In his younger days Mr. Jenks was a fair penman, but his chirography now shows the extreme nervousness in his right hand, the one that he uses so effectively in convincing a Judge and jury that white is black. The old lawyer is very logical, and the other day he startled one of his friends by saying: "Do you know that I am the finest penman in the world?" "You look astonished," he continued, "but I can prove it to yon." After the other had partially recovered from his surprise, Mr. Jenks proceeded: "Do you grant that the Chinese are the oldest people who have learned to write?" This proposition was readily assented to, and then the friend waited patientlyfor the minor premise and the conclusion. "Well, nobody will deny that practice makes perfectj" suggested the lawyer. "That being true, if the Chinese are the oldest, and have been practicing penmanship the longest, then they must be the best writers. As my pen manship closely resembles the scribbling of a Chinaman, ergo my writing must be among the best and most legible in the land." Then the man who was virtually Attorney General under Cleveland langhed heartily at his syllogism and its ridiculous conclusion. OEEAT HUSH TO CHICAGO. Pennsylvania Company Didn't Have Time to Meet the Pittsburg and Western Cat District Passenger Agent Samuel Moody, of the Pennsylvania Company, says his line has sold 600 tickets to Chicago out of Pittsburg. He thinks the prospects are for the largest summer excursion business in the history of the road. A number of fishing clubs have completed their arrangements, and will go into camp at once. The Saturday half holi day people make a break for the country as soon as noon arrives. Excursions will be run to Rock Point on Monday for an Alle gheny Sunday school and to Brie on the 21st and 22d lor the regatta at Erie. Assistant General Passenger Agent Bas sett, of the Pittsburg and Western road, is pleased with the number of Eassengers who have gone over Is line to Chicago. It was certainly a great stroke to keep the reduc tion in rates quiet until the time had come to make the announcement. The Pennsyl vania Company was taken by surprise, but it was too late to help themselves. It re quires three days' notice to the inter-State Commission before a reduction can be made and the time was too short. HOLT GHOST COLLEGE GBADUATM. Itself, will see to it that enough to pay the fiddler. We expect a tremendous crowd of people, larger than ever gathered at one place in Western Pennsylvania. Chief Bigelow is preparing for 250,000. but if it is a fine day I expect even more than that" Th. preparations for fire works displays on the Fourth of July are going on locally with a vigor and upon a scale previously unknon n. Besides the exhibition which is being arranged for Schenley Park, orders have recently been received by local deal ers for displays at Oakland Square and at the Linden Club, East End. Nearly 51,000 will be spent by the Oakland Square Club iorpjrotechnics, and the Cathedral Band will also be in attendance. As the square is directly opposite the park, visitors to Schenley will be compelled to divide their admiration. The Linden Club has also given a very extensive order, and its club bouse and grounds will probably be the most attractive place in the East End on the night of the Fourth. The Annual Commencement To-Morrow at the Opera House. The fourteenth annual commencement of Holy Ghost College will take place to-morrow evening at the Grand Opera House. An interesting programme has been pre pared, embracing orchestral and vocal music, and orations by the students. Bishop Phclan will make an address and confer the degrees and gold medals, and James J. Quinn will deliver the valedictory. The graduates are, in the classical and scientific department, Alphonsus Gavin, Fred Frommherz, James J. Quinn, John a Fisher, W. F. Stadelman and A J.

The inn In Memoir of Ex-Senator Kotan. The Nonpareil Tariff Club, of Allegheny, at a meeting last night, adopted resolutions relative to the death of ex-Senator Rutan, who was a member of that organization. They recognired him as a man of great ability, a kind and genial friend, and one who never failed to serve his friends when called upon. A copy is to be sent to the family of the deceased. Remains of Ex-Senator Rutan Be Interred at Bli Old Home, The funeral of ex-Senator James S. Rutan will taKe place to-morrow morning at 11 o'clock at the family residence, Shef field and Frasier streets, Allegheny, and the body will be taken to Beaver on the Cleveland and Pittsburg express, which leaves this city at 2 o'clock. The interment is to be in the family burial lot at that place. The funeral "services will be con ducted by Rev. Dr. C. A Holmes, of the Arch Street M. E. Church, and Rev. Dr. Izer, of Christ Church. There were mauv callers at the residence yesterday. As soon as the Senator's death occurred word was sent to all his near rela tives and some will arrive from quite a distance on Monday. Oliver Rutan, a brother, Treasurer of Carrollton county, O., arrived yesterdav, and Mr. John Rutan, of Harrisburg, has been here for several davs and is making the arrangements for the fnneral. Meetings of members of the bar, both here and at Beaver, will be called to take action upon the Senator's death. A TAXPATEE APPEALS Probably at no time during the present convention of the Amalgamated Associa tion of Iron and Steel Workers was there such a quiet session as that of yesterday. Little if any new business was transacted. In the morning a detailed report of the pre vious day's conference with the tin and black plate manufacturers was read to the delegates assembled in Forbes Street Turner HalL According to this report, after a discussion of nearly 11 hours no agreement had been reached, although everything pointed to a settlement of some kind being effected when the Wage Committee again met the manufacturers on Tuesday next. Notwithstanding the statements to the contrary, the tin and black plate manufac turers did not ask for any great redctinon of wages in the departments where no im proved machinery had been introduced. They simply wanted an adjustment of the scale where improvements had been made. Want to Bed nee the Shearmen. This applied chiefly to the shearing room and the wages of the shearman was the principal point of discussion at the confer ence in the rooms of the Association of Iron and Steel Sheet Manufacturers on Friday. The manufacturers argued that they saw no reason in paying a shearman 51 S7i per ton, with 15 per cent added for soft steel. They contended in paying this sum that a shearman was enabled to make from 518 to 520 every day, while he was not required to put forth any great eflort or use any brain work in the discharge of his duties. The morning session at Forbes street hall adjourned promptly at 12 o'clock noon, and the members did not reassemble until two hours later. At the afternoon meeting nothing was done outside of discussing the scale and formnlating plans for future ac tion. Just after the delegates had been called to order Secretary Stephen Madden read his report; completely reviewing the work performed by him during the season now drawing to a close. Immediately after the adjournment of the meeting at 4:30 o'clock President William Weihe said: "Nothing of any moment oc curred this, afternoon, the session being very quiet The convention has adjourned until Monday." Think the Quietness Is Ominous, This quietness on the part of the dele gates is considered ominous and if anything out of the ordinary occurs before June 30, it will create no great surprise. Among those who thoroughly understand the situa tion, it is current gossip that there will un doubtedly be a clash between the Amalga mated men and the manufacturers. Mr. Joseph D. Weeks, editor of the Arherkan Manufacturer and 'Iron World, said yesterday, "While it is im- possiole to speak in advance as to details it seems almost certain that there will be a fight. As to the reductions pro posed in the manufacturers' scale the gen eral expressions of the workmen indicate that the association will not accept the de crease. When I say ttfere will be a fight I do not mean a clash of a general character, but that the trouble will occur in individual mill or in groups of mills. The fact that tne Pittsburg manntacturers, tne juanoning and Shenango manufacturers, the sheet and tin plate men and others held separate con ferences, would go far to prove this. Con cessions may be made on both sides before June SO, and "while some manufacturers may sign the scale others will not Therefore those owners of mills who sign the scale will not be in the fight while in the mills of manufacturers who still insist upon heavy reductions the clash will come. Manufacturer Not Standing Together. "This explains what I mean when I said there will be no general fight If, on the other band, a general fight bad been in tended, the manufacturers would have all stood together and demanded the reductions in the Amalgamated scale as a body." District Vice President McEvov is quoted as saying: "If the Carnegie Com pany refuse the scale, and non-union men are put to work at Homestead, there will be serious trouble which may culminate in bloodshed and murder. In reviewing the various expressions made by delegates during the week the prospects are that the workmea will all go out on July 1, as according to one ot the Wage Com mittee no agreement is likelv to take place for the present at least The same gentle man when asked what the prospects were, said: "It is folly to speculate which side will win if the promised trouble occurs. The outcome which is now merely a matter of conjecture may be a test of resources and endurance." An onen meeting of all the employes at the Homestead Steel Works will be held this morning at 10 o'clock, at which the pro posed reductions embodied in Carnegie, Phipps & Co.'s new sliding scale will be discussed. IT WAS ACCIDENTAL Terdlct of the Coroner's Jury In the Case of William Hugh.! Millionaire Club Ex cursionists Tell Their Tales of How the Drowning Occurred. Coroner McDowell yesterday completed the inquest on the body of William Hughes, who was drowned on the "Millionaire Club's" excursion on the City of Pittsburg. A verdict of accidental death was rendered. Nearly all the people who had been on that excursion were subpoenaed. There were about a dozen female representatives of the Millionaire Club present Coroner King, of Beaver county, was also present Thomas Peyton, the Allegheny under taker, who had brought Hughes to-day from Baden was the first witness. Enos Hill, who found the body, was the next, and George C Hill, his father followed. Nothing ot importance was brought out by either. John Goodwin, of 200 Market street, another excursionist, heard ot the tronble after Hughes fell into the river, but saw no trouble before that William Goodman was on the boat He had met Hughes half a dozen times. Wit ness saw a man throw a rope to Hughes. When the boat landed, "Buck" Cornelius acoused the witness of stealing his pin and the two men came to blows. Mrs. Mame King, of 42 Second avenue, said that Hughes and a man named Petit, came to her house the night before the ex cusion and wanted her to give him f 15 on his diamond pin. The next day she sent for Philip McDonough, of the Allegheny police force, and gave him the pin. It is still in charge of the Allegheny police. Witness saw Hughes 15 or 20 minutes be fore he was drowned. Dr. Dickson examined the body, but could not find any marks of violence, and he concluded that death had been caused by drowning. There was a slight con tusion in the forehead, but he thought it had been caused by coming in contact with stones in the bottom of the river while the body was being washed down stream. Charles E. Hunsicher. of 18 Federal street, Pittsburg, was called. Hunsioher said he saw Hughes fall over the bow ot the boat; that no one was near him when he fell and that he had raised the alarm. He fell off the bow of the boat where there was no railing to protect him. A number of other witnesses were exam ined, and then the jury brought in verdict of accidental death and recommended the steamboat owners take more precautions to protect the lives of excursionists.

Thompsoh, as Chair man, to address a circular letter to business men who have not thus far contributed to the fund to do so at once. Mayor Gourley says that as it is evident that no aid can be expected either from the State or national Government, it behooves charitable people to help the good cause. Thus far he said $125,000 all told had been raised. Seventy five thousand dollars is urgently needed to place the sufferers out ot actual want and carry out the work of relief. The employes of the boiler department of the Carnegie blast furnaces have contribu ted and forwarded $137 69 to the sufferers.

State Chairman Patton has secured head quarters for the Pennsylvania delegation to the National Prohibition Convention at Cincinnati, June 29, at the Burnett House, Progress Made in a Mew Field of Manu facture That Is Rapidly Enlarging. One of tho growing industries or Pitts burp, and one that promises eventually to plve the cltvas much prestige as its iron and Class, is the manufacture of root beer. It la dot generally known that more than one half of this present household necessity is made here in the Iron City. Five years ago only nine gross were produced and sold, but the fluid root beer was such an improvement on the old herbs and extracts that the Gal vln brand at onco Jumped Into public favor, ana orders poured in so rapidly from all sec tions that Mr. Gnlvin was forced to establish depots as follows : Buffalo, N. Y., at 15 South Division street; Chicago, 37 Kiver street; Cleveland, 241 Hanovor street, and Columbus, at 219 North Front street The main office and laboratory are at 17 Wood street, Pitts burr, and in five years the trade that had commenced with nine cross for a year's work jumped to a business of over 3,000 gross, and a still growing demand. With tho usual push.perseverance and plnck of the proverbial Pitts Durg business man Mr. J. A Ualvin worked his business np to the front because his beer is known to be free from deleterious or dangerous essential oils and ether and is composed only of harm less extracts that any" child might handle with safety. Many physicians, realizing that it was a healthful, oheap beverage for summer use, recommended it, and thus the demand for this leally meritorious drink has grown until tne estaDiisnment of Mr. ualvin at No. 17 Wood street is recognized as one of the leading industries of Pittsburg, where scores of young ladles are engaged In put ting up the preparation for distribution to ail points in tne u mccu stain. Mr. Ualvin employs his own force of painter on sign work, and does a great deal of advertising in this line as well as in other directions. He has seem cd space at the, World's Fair, where ho will have a laboratory in full operation, which will supply his Western trade. Galvin's Celebrated Root Beer is a prime favorite in the market, and many of the leading families in Pittsburg and other cities use it daily upon their tables, as they recognize it as the finest temperance drink known.especlaliy during the summer season. This root beer is the pioneer beverage, and many attempts have been made to supplant it in the market, but these efforts always failed. It is made of pure roots and herbs, and the finest chemists in the country upon examination failed to find the least impurity in it The present indication from orders re ceived thus far is that the orders for Gal Tin's Boot Beer for the present year will ex ceed 6,000 gross, and it will keep a large glass house busy to supply the bottles alone, to say nothing of the employment given to others in the other departments. Mr. Galvln is to be congratulated on the rapid growth of his business. Bauer's Dissolution Sale! Men's genuine Melton uita, regularly sold for l. going at $4 M this wee t at Baller'f, corner Smithfleld and Diamond street. ' Much has been said and written of the great love borne toward Father Mollinger, the priest physician, but words are utterly inadequate to describe the depth and in tensity of that love, as was evidenced by the scene at the quaint little chapel on the sum mit of Mount Troy yesterday morning when the reverential ceremonies of burial were celebrated. Father Mollinger, the healer of conntless throngs, lay in the cold sleep of death and the vacancy was felt by all. Grief in its every phase permeated the incense-laden atmosphere and rested upon the bowed heads of each and every one, from the child with golden hair, whose sweet face was marred with traces of pain, to the aged cripple, whose days and hairs alike are numbered. The sacred silence within the vaulted church was broken only by the solemn chanting of the priests and the oc casional heart-breaking sobs from those whose sorrow was greater than they could bear. At 10 o'clock the organ sounded the chords of the funeral chants, and the long line of vested priests and surpliced altar boys and acholytes solemly filed into the church, while a great hush fell upon the vast congregation of mourners. Rev. Father Dauzelzer conducted the opening of the service of office, and was followed by the Requiem High Mass celebrated by Rev. Father Wall, assisted by the Rev. Fathers Kaufman and Lengst. The Solemn March to the Grave. Eloquent and touching eulogies to the dead were preached in German and English by the Rev. Fathers Schwab and Busch re spectively. The absolution was pronounced in tones of awed reverence by, Rev. Father Busch, and after a moment's silent prayer the congregation filed'out as one grand pro cession led bv two flair bearers, the one on the left being the American colors, heavily draped with mourning, and the one on the right the papal flag of yellow and gold similarly draped. Three hundred children from the parochial school, simply and attractively dressed and each wearing a bit of mourning, followed the flag bearers and preceded 200 members of the Most Holy Name Literary Society, Knights of St. George and two branches of the C M. B. A. slowly followed the hearse bearing the beloved remains after the enormous body of foot mourners, and then the long line of carriages, which extended for several blocks in length. The Sisters of Meroy attended in a body, and were driven to the cemetery of the Most Holy Name in car riages that followed the priests. The services at the grave were of such impressiveness that the very air seemed t cease its murmuring. In' one immense circle the vast body gathered about the yawning grave and listened with moistened eyes and qnirering lips while the voice of Father Wall repeated the pravers of interment. Then a hush fell over the assembled multitude, there was the harsh, dry sound of hollow wood being strnck with pieces of dirt, a slight slipping noise as the coffin was lowered and then, after the lid to the box had been placed, and the cruel clods rattled on the receptacle, an involuntary shudder swiftly passed over the forms of the mourners, and the sad work was over. The body had passed from view, but the memory and monuments of sanctity will live on. Priests Who Attended the Ceremony. The following Catholic clergymen assisted in the services: Father Ward, of Mercy Hospital; Father McCabe, Father Alman, of Bloomfield; Father J. Jordan, of Rochester; Father E. A. Buscb, of Altoona; Father P. Clement, Father Benough, of St. Mary's Church, Allegheny; Father Law rence Wemer and Father C Rebiuan, of St. Philomena's Church; Father O'Connell, of St. Mary's,' Mt Washington; Father Dennis and Father Albert, of St. Paul's Monestary, Southside; Father S. J. Schramm, of the Southside; Father John Bausch, of Homestead; Father P. J. Quilter, of Mansfield; Father Krogman, of Wexford: Father Julius Kreunzer, of Per rysviile; Father McTighe, Fatner Charles, of Butler, and others. Rev. Father Gregory Meyer, who is in charge ot the chapel and home of the late priest-physician, said the missing will has not yet been found. "In case," said he, "the will is not discovered the property will pass into the hands of the relatives who are now in Hol land. But 1 believe a will is in existence and will come to light within a short time." The State of Pennsylvania will receive one-fifth portion of the wealth if Father Mollinger died intestate, under the collat eral inheritance tax law. t THE COURT INFANTRY. That Famous Body of Brave Soldiers to Hold a Beunlon How They Guarded a Strawberry Patch Only Two of Them Were'InJ Bred. The noble remnant of that famous body of soldiers known as the Court Infantry, of Pittsburg, will have its annual drill and parade at 10 o'clock to-morrow morning. This brave body of men, who battled for two days on the heights of "Mt. Washington to protect a strawberry pstch for themselves, will again meet and retell the stories of the dark days of strife and how they drove back the rebel horde of the South. ' These sons of Mars and disciples of Coke and Blackstone will formin the Court House yard and will march through the principal streets of the city. The members are to wear their new uniforms and side arms, and with their new flagons and canteens it is expected they will present magnificent martial appearance. The history of the organization and its military achievements are found in the Legal Journal in the Law1 Library. The Court Infantry was organized in 1863 bv Major General Brooks. Generals Jubal Early and Jackson' were reported as coming West to take Pittsburg and destroy the cannon in the Allegheny arsenal. The court guard got its orders "early one June morning and marched to Mt. Washington to the tune of "The Girl I Left Behind Me." The officers were Captain W. B. Neeiey, Lieutenants, Samuel Ciuley and Judge Mellon; Sergeants, James L Kuhn and R. B. Carnahan; Corporals, S. H. Geyer, John McClowry, John Mellon and D. W. Bell. Some members did not report and Captain Negley ordered Corporal Geyer to bring in the missing members. He marched to the District Court and took Judge Hampton from the bench and also captured some of the at torneys. The legal soldiers were stationed in Knox's atrawberry farm, and all they had to downs to guard the berry farm and eat the fruit themselves. Several ate too many strawberries and were incapacitated for duty. Only one man was placed In the guard house. A pig pen was used for that pur pose. The prisoner had a bottle, whieh the guard afterward became possessed of, with the result that the prisoner fled and the guard was found in the pen. The record advises that as the guard isi now a leading member of the bar, he should be investi gated. It Is believed that jrben tho i rebels heard of the court guard, they at once turned back for fear of being eompolsorily nonsuited, NEW ADY1SIITISE3CENTK, SO TOU EATT TB0UBLE OTEB A C0HTBACT To Furnish Fresh Meat for the Western Penitentiary. Simon Brr.hn made application to court yesterday to restrain J. F. Beilstein from furnishing tneat to the Western Peniten tiary. The trouble grows out of the con tract which was let to Mr. Beilstein a few days ago. There were three bidders, and among the three was the plaintiff.
