The Homestead Advinory Committee met as usual last night. Its woric developed nothing new. The business done was purely' routine, so Acting Chairman Crawford said. Hugh O'Donucll has been heard from. This much w:n given out by Mr. Crawford last liichL He would say'nothinc more about it. He said: "I have heard from O'Donnell, but where he is and what he is doing I will not tell you, or any other per son.". Mr. Crawford also denied the report of Secretary Lovcjoy that 40 Amalgamated men were employed in the mills. He said not a man had leit their ranks yet. Re garding the story that a number of old la boring men would go back to work, Mr. Crawlord said it was utterly Jalse. He looks lor no break in the ranks of the locked-out steel workers. There were no arrests yesterday. It is probable that a number will be inade to day. The locWed-out men express no lll Jeeling toward the holding of services at the mill They think it was perfectly right. WANT TO WHIP CARNEGIE.

The Sixteenth regiment Enjoy Their Life in the Camp. WILLING TO STAY UNTIL THE END 'All the troops who have been relieved from duty at Homestead will be paid early this week," Adjutant General Greenland said yesterday. "The draft to pay the Fourteenth Regiment has already been forwarded to the proper authorities of that command. The other regiments will be paid promptly." It was reported in camp on Saturday that several Pittsburg pawnbrokers had, during the week, visited the encampment and bad purchased the pay of many of the soldiers for 85 cents on the dollar. The report cre ated considerable indignation among the military authorities there. An investiga tion was at once instituted, but no soldier was found who would admit he had sold his pay. Adjutant General Greenland said that if the pawnbrokers had gotten into camp and had purchased the pay of soldiers at a dis count they will lose any money so advanced. "We will, on account of the rumor, which we have been unable to run down, take ex traordinary care in paving the troops. "We will, of course, send the State's draft to the captains of the companies." A Jlove. to Mock the Brokers. The captains will deposit the drafts and will check against them, and every soldier will be required to sign the pay-roll in such a way that no second hand business can be practiced. The pawnbroker cannot recover any money unless he has estab lished some agreement with the captains, and if the captains have entered into any agreement there will certainly be some cashiering. Adjutant General Greenland arrived in camp yesterday morning. He spent the morning with General Wiley, and in tho evening Generals Wilev, Greenland, Sui geon General Reed and Colonel Lnuiberton, of the Heading Coal and Iron Company, with a number of staff officers, visited Colonel Hawkins In command of tho Pi o visional Battalion, on the Snissvale side of the river. The distinguished party enjoyed a delight ful evenimr toiether. They told stoiies, smoked Wheeling stogies and drank lemonade for several hours. During the Msit Colonel I-ambertoii annonnoed that his company employed about 25,000 men and that ho would agree to give a place to every member of the National Guaid who forfeited Ills position by responding to the State's call to go to Homestead. This information was given to the hoys still re maining in camp. It was gratifying to them all. Colonel Hawkins has reduced his soldiers to the strictest possible discipline. All his men are compelled to salute the colors at headquarters and at night the sentries are lequired to announce tho hums between taps and reveille. A.great many visitors were admitted to the camp yesterday. Oil Country Hoys Happy. The Sixteenth regiment, the oil country boys, are apparently enjoying tlierHpro longed stay under canvas. There is not a case of sickness in tho regiment, and their quarters are as clean and as w ell policed as any camp that was ever pitched. General John. A. Wilev and the Buraeon general went through tho Sixteenth camp yesterday and both declared that they had never seen a camp that was kept cleaner. Colonel Willis J. Hullngs said yesterday: "The boys have settled down to monotonous camp life. There are few of them who are liable to lose their positions. In the last three or four days I havo had but three or rour applications for lur loughs. There are a number of them awav now, who will bo absent nntil after the first of tue month, when they ex pect to return. Everyone has been saying thai if there is to be any trouble it will come toward the windup of the strike, and the boys ot the Sixteenth are not anxious to be relieved at the last moment and have some other regiment Jump in and cairy awav any glory that may lesult from an outbreak." Toadies Visit the 'soldier Boys. The camp was visited by scores of friends of the bluecoats yesterday, half of whom were ladles.

Yesterday the com pany officers weie making out the pay rolls for 10 days, and the bnys are promised the money within the next three or four days.

The Ones Sow Confined in Jail Forced to Heir a Sermon. There Tvere religious services In the conn ty jail as usual yesterday, and among the in terested listeners to the moral teaching of Mr. Westfall were the Anarchists Bauer nnd Enold, who were committed there on Satuiday. The assassin Bcrkman was also uu auditor, but he did not leave his cell door or mingle with the other prisoners, as did Bauer and Enold. Mr. Beikman's cell door was thrown open, that he misht em brace the privilege accorded him, as Warden McAleese makes no exception to his rule of permitting all his guests to attend worship, but Berkman did not join the congregation. His cell, however, was not so far away that he could not hear the lesson and lie re mained ut his door until the service was at an end. Bauer and Enold seated themselves among the other pi Isoners, but neither of them spoke to the other or to anybody else. When the services were finished both stood un with the others while the benediction was said and then returned quietly to their 1 cens. The Allegheny police keDt a sharp look out for meetings of Auaichista last night, but everything seemed quiet, and if any ot the groups met they diu so so quietly that they were not detected.

He also said he had como with 27 other men, all of whom had been taken to the mill yesterday, and that he and one other man hud escaped.

As an angler he had poor success, for a continuous sit on the banks for 33 hours failed to show that there was a fish wlihiu tf n miles of his hook. Just down the hauka shoit distance was a man who was doing a big business. About a dozen lines were out in the river and the man was pulling In the finny cieatures at a rapid rate. Mr. Schultz pulled in his lines and decided to cast them near his lucky neighbor. The successful fisherman proved to- be Lonny Lonir, the clerk of .the Criminal Court. In stantly they recozhlzed each other and fell upon each other's breasts The oouncllman told the clerk that he could not catch any thing i' nd the clerk told the councilman not to be alarmed, as lie had enough fish for both. As the sun disappeared' behind the Western hills a boat, manned by two sun burned Individuals, were seen lowing into the middle or the river with a string of fish 20 feet long hanging to the back end of the boat as a tiller. On close inspection the pair proved to be the councilman and clerk. Mr. Schultz took hair of the fish and came to town, while Clerk Long changed his bait and moved fuitlier up the river.

This man was stationed at the bend In the toad at Pamtei's mill, and had a large sign, one side white, the other red. It was his duty to watch tlie cars, and when one car was on the switch, to present the red side to the car coming the other way to notify it not to come on the switch. IT the switch was clear he turned the white side, indicat ing that all was right and to come on. The man was color-blind, and all day only guessed at which color he was signaling with. The result was many complications, and when two cars came on the switch to gether, the drlveis would quarrel, both as seitlng they were right. Neither would give way, and the passengers were sub jected to long waits. This was kept up all dav causing a great deal of trouble and hard feeling. BTJBIED FB0M THE M0EGUE.

How the Petroleum Exhibit Could Be Made a Feature ot the Fair. SOME UNIQUE DISPLAY NEEDED To Impress on Tisitors What a Great Etate Is PennsjlYania. INTEEESTIXG TALK WITH MR. BREWER Eben Brewer, of Erie, who was in the city yesterday attending the funeral of his lather, is one of the secretaries for the World's Fair. He was also a commissioner of ths Erie Canal, and did much to have the survey of the route to the lakes completed. Mr. Brewer thinks that Congress is not doing the right thing in refusing to pass the appropriation asked for the Fair. "The Chicago people," he said, "have already planked down 111,000,000 to pay the expenses, and if Congress will not ap propriate.the $5,000,000 the city will raise the balance of the money needed and bond the gate receipts, which ought to be about $12,000,000. What we want is an indorse ment of the Fair by the Government. The invitations to foreign nations to participate were issued in the name oi the President. The Grandest Fair Ever Seen. "No world's exhibition ever held cost as much as the one in Chicago will. In the beginning the national commission raised the hopes of the' people in the city, and the buildings were planned on a more extensive scale than intended. If Uncle Sam contri butes $5,000,000, Director General Davis has recommended that part ot the money he ued in erecting a building exclusively for tho educational display. The exhibit now will be placed in the main building. but educators in the country aro growling a dreat deal abont their cramped quarters. The educational display at the Centennial was crowded into a gallery, and the people interested have comnlalned ever since about their treatment. They claim, nnd with truth, that the exhibit was overshadowed by others, and visitors went away without any distinct impression of the school dis play. The trouble is that the applications for space are flvo times larger than tho amount at the disposal of the management. The educational structure will have about 400,000 squnre feet of floor space and will be located on the islaud in the lagoon. Chinese Will Sulk at Home. "All the nations orthe world except Chlri have agreed to make exhibits. The Chinese Government feels sore over the Scott ex clusion bill, and the Mongolians, as a people, will Oo nothing. Several large Chinese cor porations, however, will be represented. and firomtse to have a fine display. Tho Scott 111, by the way, is a blessing to the country. China could easily dump enough of her peonle in the United States to control us without noticing a reduction in tho popula tion. "I hope the Pennss'lvania display will be a fine one. My idea is that the State should take some line, and make it characteristic, different from anything else in the fair, so that when the people return home thev will cai ry away with them someleadinzand Prominent feature of the Keystone State, he oil display could be made very unique, but the producers have lost much of tnelr enthusiasm and they are not carrying out their original piomises. The Standard Oil Company doesn't seem to bo doing any thing, though they lurnish the fair with oil. Because the managers held the oil exhibit nnder advisement "for a time on account of the danger from fire, the pioduceis became discouraged and lost interest. Faiqualir Is Vre paring Plan. "Sometime ago I met Executive Commis sioner Farquahr. He said he had two things In view thnt would stamp Pennsyl vania and its industries In the minds of visitors. He didn't say what he intended to do. Lewis Emery's scheme was to build a large oil tank in a good location. Inside galleries could be bnilt on which every article- made lrom petroleum would be ex hibited. A well was to be boied In the center to show how the crude petroleum was drawn from the earth. The people could gain access to the inclosure from be low and at the sides. Mr. Emery has a fine oil museum at his homo and would loan his specimens. The old tools used In the Drake well can be had, aud by making ndditlons of this kind the dis play would be historical and representative of the business ns developed to-day. I think oil Is tho most oiiginat of our resources, and if properly handled would attract great attention nt the Fair." Congiessman W. A. Stone relumed to Washington last eyening. Ho said a minor ity was trying to control the majority of the House, but rather than allow them to win, he for one Is willing to stay nil sum mer. He added that higgling over an nppiopriation for tho World's Fair was outrageous, and sets a bad example for foieiun nations. It looks as if the people of the United States are not interested, when it should be made a great national affair. He stated that the money was guaranteed, and the Government wouldn't lose a cent of the appropriation. He expects to see tho minoiity break up in a few days. WIRE DRAWEES' CONFEEENCE.

Many orthebodies were Identified and taken In charge by friends for burial, while sev eral found resting places in the potter's field. In this awful list of death the railway fatalities take the lead by furnishing 38 victims. Every case was that of trespass and in every instance a verdict of acci dental death was rendered. Notwithstand ing the heavy travel during the month by pleasure-seekers to and from resorts near the city, not a single acoident of a fatal na ture has occurred to passengers. In many Instances people would walk the tracks and bridges, and before aware of the approach or a train they were run down and killed.. Murder comes next on the list with 13 vic tims. The entire number of deaths were caused by gunshot wounds. Ten were killed during the riot at Homestead on the morning or July 6 In the engagement be tween the mill workers with the Pinkerton detectives. The remaining three murders occurred in Pittsburg. The murderers In each case have been captured, and are lodged In the county Jail awaiting trial. Tne rivers claimed tlie largest number or victims during the past month in the history or tho two cities. The majority of the cases were those o! young men who had gone into the rivers to bathe and were drowned. In several instances the bodies of the unfor tunates were carried a considerable distance by the enrrent before they were recovered. The rivers cave up 20 or the dead. Despite all the warnings that people have had regarding the deadly oil can, IS persons met their death in that frightful manner, during the past 30 days. These fatalities were almost exclusively among women who thoughtlessly ponred oil Into their stoves. The most pathetio case was that of Mrs. Thomas, who was burned to death and her home destroyed by fire. Her husband and children barely escaped with their lives. Deaths from heat and alcoholism reached 4. The month of July was an exception in the mills in consideration of the lact that not a single fatal accident occurred. This said Coroner McDowell is because nearly all of the large works are closed down. AN AFIEENO0N FIBS. The Pittsburg Fk-no Works Totally De stroyed Yesterday. Shortly after S o'clock yesterday after noon the iron clad building owned by the Pittsburg Skene Works, located on the cor ner of Elizabeth and Gloucester street, Twenty-third ward, was consumed by fire. The building was 60x100 feet. By the time the fire department i cached the scene the struct ure was a mass or flames. The rear part or the building was occupied by Fleming & Hamilton as a plnce for Japanning tin, and when the flames reached this spot they hud plenty to feod on, as the paint burned very-flercely. It required considerable woik on the part of tho depaitment to keep the fire from spreading. The fire Is supposed to have been caused by ono of the cupalos. The building was owned by W. F. Patterson, who estimated the entire loss at $4,500, on which there was a partial insurance. FAEMEE BINGLEY TO STEIKE BACK. Warrants TTI1I Be Taken Ont To-Day for Two of the Richie's.

A Five Months' Struggle Between Season and Insanity. SUCCUMBS AT LAST TO HEB MANIA. The Death of a Yonng Man Breaks a Heart and Causes l'ementia. JIANGS HERSEfiP AT THE CITT HOME After struggling for five months against an insane desire to commit suicide Frances Fonuer succumbed to her dementia and hanged herself yesterday morning in a bathroom at the Allegheny Poor Farm. Every precaution had been taken, at the un fortunate woman's request, to prevent her irom committing the violrnt act. and since her confinement she had obtained more control of herself. Upon the 25th of last January Florence Fonner, the youngest son of the family, died from the effects of typhoid fever. The young man was but 25 -years of ae and was the old mother's idol. Mrs. Fonner, who was upward of 70 years of age, was heart broken at her son's death, and followed him to the grave on the 11th of March. Frances, aged 47, the eldest of the chil dren, lived with her parents at No. 189 West End avenue, and occasionally went among the sick of the neighborhood as nurse. She and her mother were more like companions than parent and daughter, and her health, which had never been strong, was shattered by 'attending first her brother and latterly her mother. Afraid of Committing Snleldn. Some two weeks after the death of old Mrs. Fonner the remaining members of the family were startled by having Frances de mand to be tied op or she wonld talce her own life. The woman was pacified, and no more was thought of the matter until some few davs later when the same stranse request was made, this time with greater vehemence. From this on the woman beiran to exhibit peculiar symptoms and Dr. S. W. Boksc, of No. 102 Taggart street, ti as called in to attend her. The physician expre-sed grave doubts and treated his patient for melancholia. She did not con fide In anyone for several days bnt then went to her lster Mrs. H. K. Deltrich of No. 202 West End avenue and declared she was continually possessed with a desire to end her life. "She said she heard voices at all hours of the day and night tolling her to commit suicide." continued Mrs. Deltrich, ns she to'd a Dispatch man or her sister's strange case last night. "1 told her she slionld get rid of the idea, bnt received the reply that she was perfectly rational and realized fully that it was a condition or a diseased brain, but notwithstanding this, she was almost powerless to resist the inclination to kill herself. I called npon her one midnight and found her walking up and down the room in a state of intense agitation. Placed Under Close Snrralllance. "She threw her arms around my neck and weeping bitterly asked me what she should do. 'Everybody Is asleep but me,' she said, 'and 1 can do anything I want to with my soir and no one can prevent me.' I quieted her and Anally put her to sleep. The next day she Insisted upon being put in some institution where she would be under constant surveillance and she could be prevented from doing herself the Injury she leared. We had an aversion to Insane asylums, aud secured her admittance into the Allegheny City Farm at L'laremont. Here she was getting along very nicely, and we had made all arrangements to tuke her into the country this week, as the attending physician advised as much quiet ns possible and gave cs some hope for her ultimate recovery." yesterday morning the woman entered one of the bath rooms at the home and de liberately wrappod the lower end of a rotler towl about her neck and then threw herself down and was gradually strangled to death. She made no outcry and her body was not discovered until half anhour later. The Coroner was no tilled and will hold an inquest to-day. The grandmother of the unlortunate woman, aged 82 years, is still living. HYEE 117 TBA1HING. What the lightweight Does in Preparing for McAuIlffr. Billy Myer, who is to fight Jack SIcAuliffe, is working faithfully and thoroughly be lieves that ne will win first money, $9,000, Septembers. Billy went into training July 5 weighing 143 pounds, and is gradually bringing himself down by the usual meth ods. In order not to weaken himself unduly he started slowly and has not yet really be gun his hard work. He rises every morning a little before 6 o'clock and after a brisk walk of two miles eats a light breakfast. Then he rests for half an hour before starting on the real work of the day. About 9 o'clock he begins a walk which lasts till nearly noon, when he l rubbed down either by his broth er Zddie or James Bardell of Chicago, the lightweight wrestler, who are Billy's con stant companions, thongh he Is practically his own trainer. Billy eats heartily at din ner, bnt of course avoids pastry and every thing that has a tendency to fatten. He is very fond of eggs and has become a great vsgefarian recently, but eats few potatoes. Dinner is followed byanother rest, and thon tho work of the afternoon bezins, nnd it is mighty hard work, too. The first half hour Is devoted to exercise with the pulley weights, which strengthens the arms, chest, neck and legs. Then comes the wrist ma chine, a simple but ingenious contrivance for limbering up the wriits and fingers. A roller three feet long and one inch thick is suspended like a trapeeze, but In such a manner that it turns easily; through one end a lope is fastened, to which is attached a heavy weight. The wrist exercise con sists In turning the roller nnd raising the nrixht, which is now about five ponnds, but will be gradually increased. After twisting the wrist machine for bnlf an hour Myers flies at the bag. and if MeAuliffe could see how he hits it he might be tempted to with draw fiom the match or buy a baseball mask, for those blows, if landed on an op ponent's physiognomy, would spoil his beauty. In the evening Myer takes a short walk, and at 9 or 9:30 he is In bed. He calls his present training play. When he gets fairly started, a couple of weeks from now, he will add a number of featuies, such as foot ball, wrestling, rowing and sprinting. He has lost only about four rounds, bnt could easily drop a dozen more if necessary. Myer seems to be in perfect condition even now, except as to weight. His dark skin is as clear as an Infant's, his movements :iie like those of an India rubbeV man, and his mus cular development is great. Ills hands are not tough yet, hut they will be attended to later. Three weeks before the battle In September AU Kennedy, who Is Billy's part ner and backer, and knows a thing or two about pugilism himself, will take Mjerln band and see that the 'finishing touches are put on in good shape.

New Ohleans, July 31. Jftw-fa'. It is a notorious fact that most of the guns aud ammunition being used in Honduras, both by the revolutionists and the Govern ment party, have been sent from New Or leans. More have been ordered irom here but the shippers are finding it a difficult matter to get the con traband goods there. Most of the steamship lines refuse to take them, saying that if they take guns to the revolntionists it will anger the Government: if to the Government it will anger the revolutionists, and as it is impossible to tell who will come out on top, the company carrying this kind of freight may get into trouble and injure its business. J. B. Connors, of this city, agent for the Honduras Government, has a large amount of ammunition ordered which he cannot get to Honduras. It has been refused transportation. The United States authori ties have refused to allow its stor age in the Custom House, because of the danger, apd the Collector ordered its removal and threatens to sell it As ammu nition in Honduras is running low and the troops can get none Irom here, the chances are the revolution will come to an end for 'lack of cartridges.
