A YERY HEALTHY CITY.
rittsbnrg Kot Such an Unpleasant
Summer Eesort, After All.
SMALLPOX KOW STAMPED OUT.
Only One Death Among the Eleren Tatients
at the festhouse.
HOT HEATHER TEI HARD ON BABES
Pauline Goehring, the last smallpox
patient in the pesthonse, hai entirely re
covered from the terrible disease with
which she was taken and will he able to
leave this week.
The smallpox scourge with which Pitts
burg was threatened at the beginning of the
summer has been placed tinder control by
the exertions ot the Bureau of Health and
no more fears are entertained of the disease
obtaining any headway. The sanitary con
dition of the city is very good and the
closest attention is being paid to all com
plaints that come in about delective or bad
sewerage in the various parts of the citv.
Chief Clerk V. F. McKelvey, of "the
Health Bureau, yesterday told a DlsrATCH
man that the year so far has proved sin
gularly free from really serious cases of in
fectious diseases. '"Out of the 11 cases re
ported to the Health Department," he con
tinued, "as smallpox patients, two were
proven to be measles, nine were taken into
the pesthonse and only six were suffering
from that disease.
Only One Case Was Fatal.
"Out of the six only one case was fatal.
That was of the destitute foreigner who was
brought to us in the early part of the sea
son. The other five received the best of
care and all were saved, the last one leaving
the pesthou-e this week a perfectly cured
woman."
"Why is the death rate so far in excess of
what it is at other times of the year?"
"That is owing to the prevalence of fatal
diseases among infants. The summer
mouths, particularly July and August, are
the hardest in the year for small children.
Cholera inlautum, taken while thebibc is
teethinc, frequently proves fatal, and it is
to the little ones that the large death rate is
due. Among adults the mortality record is
remarkablv small. Comparing it with last
year.it can easily be shown that the death
rate exceeded the one of the present year
by nearly 100 ter month. To be sure,
influenza was prevalent during the damp
sprine months but. even so, it shows a good
year for Pittsburg in the comparison."
"How about the sanitary condition ot the
city?"
"It is in excellent shape," replied Jlr.
JIcKelvey. "We are receiving compara
tively few complaints from the citizens, and
I have every reason to believe our sanitary
condition excellent
Improving; the Sewage System.
"There was one portion of the city, down
on Penn avenue, in the neighborhood of
Twenty-eighth street, where the sewage was
very poor. The pipes had become choked
up with refuse where it came out into the
Allegheny river. In that vicinity there
were three persons taken to the pesthonse
supposedly victims of smallpox. All
three were treated and have recovered,
and the sewer pipes were cleaned out
as a result of this. There has not been an
other case o that disease nor of typhoid
fever reported. We have taken every pos
sib'e measure to prevent the Spread of dis
eases, and as soon as a contagious case was
reported the patient was immediately re
moved to the pesthouse andl cautionary
measures were used tj prevent
the disease germs from' circulating
and taking lodgment with the other
members ot the family, which, by the way,
is the means of starting aj scourge. The av
erage person is very careless when abq,ut
"- "'"-c-f'-k-bed of a patient with a contagious
isease anik,verr apt to. go among dri
vers with the same garments he wears at
the patient's side. This, of course, is dan
gerous as the germs find lodgment In the
clothing and are scattered through the air
when the wearer goes out of doors. JTot
witbstanding this the city is practically free
from infections diseases and I anticipate
none. We are in a fortunately healthy
citv."

A WARM ARGUMENT.
lodge Swing Listens to a Discussion of
the district Attorney's Application for
a Writ of Mandamus Upon County
Controller Grler.
An argument was heard by Judge Ewing
yesterday in the mandamus proceedings
brought by District Attorney Burleigh
against Controller Orier. Mr. Burleigh
argued his own case and Attorney James
Fitzsimmons appeared for the Controller.
Mr. Burleigh opened by reading bis peti
tion for a writ of mandamus. Ue next
read the Controller's answer. This, he re
marked, was a most remarkable document,
inasmuch as it went out of the way to at
tack the conduct of the District Attorney's
office, which was a matter with which the
Controller had nothing to da Continuing,
he called the attention of the court to a
portion of the Controller's answer, which
credits .District Attorney Burleigh with
only trying 61 cases more in a year than the
late District Attorney Johnston. He said
the Controller's own tabular statement
showed he had tried 291 cases more and the
fact was he tried 465 more cases. Mr. Bur
leigh was proceeding to denounce as untrue
assertions made by the Controller relative
to the Criminal Court business when he was
interrupted by Judge Ewing.
"There is no use discussing that ques
tion," said Judge Ewing. "Even if it were
true the Controller has nothing to do with
the conduct of the Criminal Court; that is
the business of the judges of the Quarter
Sessions. But it is not true. Anyone who
knows how the criminal court has been con
ducted for the past year knows that the
person making the statement, that it has not
been conducted properly, is either mis
taken in the facts or has'no regard for the
truth."
Mr. Burleigh continued to discuss the
answer, and in relation to a portion of it
said it was grossly untrue.
Controller Grier I'll answer that by my
attorney.
Mr. Burleigh Will you be kind enough
not to interrupt me while I am talking to
the Court
Controller Grier I am talking to the
Court.
Judge Ewing said the Court had enough
of that portion of the answer, and if a mo
tion was made he would strike it out. Mr.
Burleigh at once made the motion.
Continuing, Mr. Burleigh discussed the
legal phase of the matter, fie asserted that
prior to the new Constitution the office was
paid part in salary and part in tees. The
Constitution expressly forbade paying an
officer in fees; therefore, the District Attor
ney was affected by the act of 1876
and should receive his salary under it and
its supplements. The decision of the Su
preme Court in the Bell vs. Allegheny
county case did not affect this case, because
the Treasurer and Controller always were
salaried officers, and the mandate of the
Constitution had been satisfied as to them.
As to the District Attorney the Constitu
tion made it necessary for the Legislature
to act by changing the office from a fee to a
salaried one and the act of 1876 did this.
Mr. Burleigh was speaking of the amount
of forfeited recognizances turned in, when
Mr. Eitzsimmons, referring to the Con
troller's answer, said: "There is nothing
here but what is in the books."
Mr. Burleigh But there is lots in the
books that is not here.
Mr. KUsimmons spoke next and took a
different view of the case. He contended
in substance that the Constitution did away
with the fees earned by the District Attor
ney and left him only the 14,000 salary per
year according to the act of 1871. He dis
cussed the division of the fees with the As
sistant District Attorney and the allowance
of forfeited recognizances as fees, and in
conclusion asked that Mr. Burleigh's peti
tion be dismissed. Decision was reserved.
THE SIEIKE AT ST- LOUIS.
Prospects Are That All the Mills Will Sign
the Scale In Two Weeks.
St- Louis, July 22. The 3,000 members
of the Amalgamated Association employed
.in the mills in and around St. Louis, who
have been out on a strike since July 1 on
account of the refusal of the mill owners to
sign the scale, will probably return to work
within the next week or two. Tho mills
that have been idle since the old scale ex
pired are the Helmbacher forge and-rolling
mill, employing COO 'men: Tudor Iron Com
pany, East St. Louis, 800 men; Western
nail plate mill, Belleville, 400 men, and the
Belleville steel mills. 1,100 men. These
include only the skilled workmen, while
there are a large number of laborers in each
mill who are idle because the mill owners
have not signed.
At the Helmbacher mill the work of re
pairing the furnaces has been progressing
at a rapid rate, and is now almost com
pleted. It was given out yesterday that as
soon as the mill ii in readiness to s'tart the
scale will be signed. At the Tudor Iron
Company's works, in East St. Louis, the
same condition may be said to exist. The
1,100 steel workers at Belleville are not
likely to return to work as soon as the iron
workers, as the two companies are said to
be awaiting the outcome of the trouble at
Homestead. The Manufacturers' Associa
tion, of which both companies are members,
has demanded a material reduction in the
scale which the Amalgamated Association
has refused to grant Both companies are
reported to be anxious to start their mills,
and It is not improbable that both will be
in operation within the next two weeks.
Neither company has peremptorily refused
to sign the scale.

IKON TBOUBLES AT SHAE0N.
The Company Discharges Its Entire Work

Sharojt, July 22. Special. Sheriff Bur
nett, of Mercer county, assisted by a num
ber of deputies, are protecting the property
of the Sharon Steel Casting Company's
works, which resumed work this morning
after a shutdown caused by a wholesale dis
charge of molders. The tronble was princi
pally the result of a disagreement between
the management and the men as to what
constitutes a day's work, and as the em
ployes would not concede the point a gen
eral discharge followed. Each of tne men's
pay envelopes contained a slip requesting
tnem to keep off the company's premises.
Since then the company has secured a

being too friendly with a young married
lady of his congregation. After considering
the matter the charge was dismissed for
want of evidence. Another charge was then
brought against him for indulging in lan
guage unbecoming a minister when speak
ing of the gentle- sex. The reverend gentle
man was given t le alternative of having his
case tried before the presiding elder and a
committee of church stewards now or be

time to make a decision. The accused pas
tor expresses confidence that the charges
will tall to the ground.
