'EEPORTED COLOXIZlTION IN INDIANA f SPECIAL TM.EGKAM TO TOE DISPATCH. 1 Petebsbdko, Vx., Sept. 15. A recon ciliation between ex-Congressman James D. Brady and ex-Congressman John M. Lancston, who have been political oppon ents for some time, was effected last night, when Langston met Colonel Brady and his friends at the Custom House in this city. Langston told The DISPATCH correspond ent, to-night, that he was treated with the utmost courtesy by all, and especially by Colonel Brady himself. Langston said he would bring Colonel Brady in full accord with him as to the plan on which certain Congressional con ventions, nominations and campaigns, so far as the Republican party is concerned in this State, should be conducted, and the necessary arrangement for the earnest and vigorous management of the State campaien in order for the success of the Bepublican party in the State. Langston said that while it was true that his frinds, white and col ored, seemed determined to put him in nom ination for the Fitty-third Congress from this district, he was ready for any self-sacrifice on his part which seemed to be nec essary to secure the Bepublican party the full strength of the Bepublican vote of this district, in order to secure beyond perad venture the electoral vote of Virginia for Harrison and Re id. Langston has a plan which he will sub mit next week to the Rational Bepublican Committee, upon the adoption oi which, he claims, tour Bepublican Congressman can be elected and the electoral ticket of the State carried for the nominees of the Be publican party. About the general char acter of this plan Langston declined to talk. It is reported here to-day that General JIahone has issued circnlars against making nominations in any Congressional district in the State, so far'as the Bepublican party is concerned.

Tom i Carter and his associates in charge of the Bepublican national campaign. The trouble is in the Kings county Bepublican camp. There is no sentiment in Mr. Car ter's politics. He says the interminable and lnferna.1 rowing between the Brooklyn 'action must be stopped right off Mr. "Willis followed up his defeat by the Nathan taction last evening, by being interviewed to-day in the Brook lyn Eagle. The sentiments there expressed are not calculated to batten the peace which Mr. Carter and his associates so much desire. Mr. "Willis is supposed to speak the sentiments of Stcretary Tracy. The President's attention has already been called to the situation. The, Republicans arc determined to have 2fev Tork if work, day and night, will accomplish that result, but just when thing began to look encouraging the Brook lyn :racas outcropped again.

Detroit, Sept '15. To-night the Derao cratiof this city opened the Michigan cam paign with a rousing meeting at the Audi torium HalL The hall, which has a seating capacity of 8,000, was comfortably filled by an enthusiastic audience which cheered it self hoarse before the evening was over. Judge Allen B. Morse, nominee of the Michigan Democracy for Governor, was the first speaker. It was some time before he could commence his speech because of the intense enthusiasm. He touched at length upon the leading political questions of the campaign, both State and national, and ar raigned the Bepublican party for what it had and what it had not done. In closing he advised the young Democrats at the com ing election to choose between the parties which are representative of Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson, and vote the ticket put up by that of Jefferson. The next speaker was Congressman Asher G. Caruth, ot Kentucky. He spoke elo quently and kept the audience in an uproar with the witty stories and sallies with which he punctuated his address. It was in part as follows: I don't know the local Issues which divide you people, but I am no stranser to the im portant issues that aro now presented bc lore the American nation. The question of the hour is, shall Grover Cleveland ho elect ed? Shall the nevt President be Urover Cleveland, whose record Is clem, or Benja min Harrison, nom the beginning or whose administration scandal has reigned supremo lnall depattiuent'-T When Clovelana went ont of the White IIouso there was a surplus in the United States Treasury or $100,000,000.

He Opens the Campaign in Iowa With an Anti-Tariff Speeclu Carroll,, PA., Sept 15. Governor Hor ace Boies, whose Presidental chances were temporarily postponed at the Chicago Con vention, opened the national campaign in Iowa to-day in the most vigorous fashion for Cleveland and Stevenson. The Gov ernor had an immense audience, and his ap pearance on the speakers' stand was the signal for a remarkable outburst of cheer ing. In the conrse of his speech, which was enthusiastically punctuated with cheers, the Governor said: "Whv was the surplus of $83,000,000 in the Treasury dissipated as it has been done? Because it stood in the way of protective tariff The two could not exist together. One or the other must disappear. But our friends say this protective tariff is made for the benefit of the laboring men. All that the tax is intended to do is to equalize the difference between the wages ot American workmen and the pauper labor of Europe. When it was under considera tion it was not the laboring man who ap peared at the Capital of this nation and asked to have it passed. Hundreds, if not thousands of manufacturers, with the ablest attorneys they could employ, did so appear. It has now been in force for two whole years. Has it allaved the struggle or lessened the contest between capital and labor? Let Homestead answer." OHLIGEB BEATS M0NN0T OUT. A Surprise in the Democratic Congressional Con ention at Orrville.

Bf'sssfKmsmsmssm PURE WATER COMING: Councils Indorse Major Kennedj's Flan to Extend the Pipes ABOVE THE PITTSBURG SEWERS. Names of the New Police Magistrates Bent in and Confirmed. HAN'T PETITION FOR IMPR0YEMENTS Allegheny Councils held a meeting last evening. The cholera and city improve ments figured extensively in the discus sions. In the Select branch the most important matter before the meeting was the con sideration of the water question. Mayor Kennedy was present and addressed the Council. He said the great thing was how to do the work quickly, and he thought they had solved the question. There were two ways. One was to lay a number of lines of small pipe up the river bed, as are laid for oil lines. This could be done in three weeks. The other is to build a five-foot steel pipe following the line of the Butler road. Br fall this line would be at Willow Grove and good water could be furnished. Either plan would cost $150, 000. The five-foot pipe would be in the line of a permanent improvement and could be extended in the future of the pumps being moved as the line was built further up the river. If Councils would say the word he was ready to go ahe'ad and have good water for the city in two weeks. Councilman Kennedy asked if the work could be prosecuted without the formality of advertising, etc. He was anxious to give the Mayor all the power possible, but there was a legal question to consider. Mayor Kennedy said that if cast iron pipe was used the city has a contraot that will cover the ground; he didn't know about the steel pipe. If Councils would indicate what was wanted he would go ahead nith the work. Providing Ways and Means. Councilman Kennedy thought it proper to present an ordinance covering the work and pass a resolution pledging Councils to appropriate the money required. The work could then be pushed, and in the meantime the ordinance could be rushed through com mittee and Council. There was considerable discussion as to the method of giving the Mayor power to act, and finally Councilman Kennedy offered the following: Whereas, The city or Allegheny is threat ened with a oholera visitation; and Whereas. It Is necessary io at once obtain our water supply from a source 1 nrthor up the Allegheny river: therefore, be it Resolved, By the Select and Common Coun cil or the City or Allegheny that l is the sense or Councils.UDOn the suggestion or tho Mayor of the city, that an expenditure of $150,000 should be incurred to obtain at once n better supply of water by laying the mains further up the river. The resolution was passed, as was a reso lution directing, the Chief of the Depart ment of Public Works to advertise for proposals for doing the work. Mr. Ken nedy also offered a resolution directing the Finance Committee to prepare an ordinance submitting to a vote of the peo ple the question of issuing bonds for water, street and sewer im provements and a resolution directing the Committee on Legislation to prepare an act of Assembly empowering the city to con demn land for park purposes. These last were referred. Later in the evening Select Council accepted the Common Council amendment relating to the expenditure of the $150,000 lor extending the main up the river. Those Police Magistrates. Mayor Kennedy sent in a communication naming the police magistrates. They are David McKelvey in the First district, com posed of the. First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth and Thirteenth wards; John Woehley, Second district, Tenth ward; Frank Harking, Third district. Eleventh ward; A. J. Brinker, Fourth district, Twelfth ward, and Alder man Wthner, Fifth district, Fourteenth ward. They were confirmed. Some routine business was transacted and Council adjourned. Then it was discovered that there was a little more business and the Council "reconvened" and passed a resolution vacating part of Balkan street and an ordinance for the purchase ot a site on Haslage street, Seventh ward, for an engine house. Mr. Born, from the Committee on Repre sentation in the Common branch, presented a report as previously published. Mr. Ein stein said that there are now enough taxa ble.' in the Twelfth ward to entitle that ward to two Common Councilmen Instead of one, as fixed by this report He asked if a change could not be made. President Lind say said that the law provided for an ap pointment on July 1, and the Twelfth ward at that time did not have enough taxobles to secure two Councilmen. Mr. Kennedy, from the Finance Com mittee, presented resolutions for paying John Bradley, Prothonotary, 5593 50 costs in city cases; providing for temporary clerks in the" Treasurer's office at 560 a month each; authorizing the City Solicitor to appoint an assistant at 5100 a month; all of which were passed. Mr. Lowe objected to the ordinance for an Assistant City Solicitor and moved to indefinitely postpone action, but no one wonld second his motion. Street Improvements. Mr. Lowe.frotn the Committee on Works, presented ordinances for the improving of Ridge avenue, Montgomery avenue, Lowrie street, Gardner street, and Troy Hill road; for sewers on Charles street, Cedar alley, Wolf alley, Fremont alley, East street, Ashton street, Saw Mill alley, Magnolia street, and Lamont Btreet; authorizing the purchase ot a lot on Villa street to lay a water main to the reservoir; for laying a 24 inch rising main to the Montgomery Hill tank; for erecting .additional Dumps at the Howard street pumping station; ' for new boilers at the Howard street pumping sta tion; all of which were passed. The ordinance giving the contract for mast arms to the Keystone Company was sent back. In the Common Branch. In Allegheny Common Council lost night a quantity ot business was disposed of. Upon the call of wards the following papers were presented and referred to the proper committees: Petitions for grading and paving the west cud of Washington avenue, Juniata street, Franklin street, Locust street and Osceola street; resolution for a sewer on North street; petition to change the name of Hopkins alley to Hop kins street; to pave Locust street, for a switch on Beaver and Washington avenues; for a boardwalk and light on Island avenue; for water on Spring Garden avenue: to open Tnstin street; resolution for removal of bodies In the First German Evangelical Lutheran grnveyard to Troy Hilljpetitions for water on and regrading of California avenue; to improve Shady avenue and to open and widen School avenue; ordinance to repave East street, and resolution for the purchase of site tor an engine house in the Tenth ward.

A Better Water Supply. The resolution authorizing the expendi ture of 5150,000 to obtain at once a better supply of water temporarily in laying mains up the river was read and adopted. The resolution read next authorized the Chief of the Department of Public Works to pre pare, plana and advertise for proposals for an extension of the water works system. The following measures were then passed: Ordinances for sewer on Franklin street; granting Oliver Iron and Steel Company right to lay switch' across Preble avenue; prohibiting use ofcity's water as a motive power for elevators, oic.;'for sewer on West Jefferson street; changing the name of Beech street to Beeoh avenue; grading, paving and curbing Bridge street; opening Seidle alley; changing the grade of Perrvs Mlle avenue, Forsyth street, Kirkpatrick alley,' Spring Btreet, Howard street, West Magnolia street, Vine avenue, Clifton ave nue, Cross alley and Superior street KILLED BY A DAB.

KEECH A FAMINE IMMINENT. Decrease in Exportation of Raw Ma terial From Hamburg AFFECTS THE PRICE OF SUGAR. Manufacturers .the Masters of the Present tit nation. RETAIL GROCERS HOLD A MEETING "Not a pound of the better grades of sugar can be bought at any price from the refiners," a wholesale grocer said yes terday. On account of the quarantine Regulations holding the vessels ladeqed with the raw material the sugar refiners in New York, Philadelphia and Boston with drew their better products from the market. The refiners have enough raw material on hand to work up for the contracts which have been placed with them, but now refuse to take orders for the higher grades, mak ing no promises as to when they will again be able to furnish the trade. As yet the trust has not put up the price on BUgar, but if the quarantine should be kept up for any length of time, and the indications are tuat it will, there is bound, it is said, to be a sugar famine. The daily production of the Sugar Trust is 50,000 barrels. At this time of the year the trade is the brightest and it requires all this enormous production to supply the de mand. The refiners being compelled to wait 20 days for the raw material, under the President's order relating to quarantine, it will make the sugar nroduction fall behind 1,000,000 barrels in that period. It is evi dent that this will have a very material effect upon the price of the commodity. A gentleman closely connected with the American Sugar Refining Company said yesterday: "There is no doubt that every vessel loaded with the raw material for the manufacture of sugar will be detained in quarantine the full 20 days. Hamburg con trols the sugar mar ket'of the world as far material is concerned and most of the ma terial comes Irom there. Sugar will cer tainly take a big jump in price." Retail Grocers Meet Over 200 members of the Retail Grocers' Association met at their headquarter" in the Germania Bank building at Liberty avenue and Smithfield street last evening to discuss the action of the whole sale grocers in entering into an agreement with the Sugar Trust to control the price of sugar in this city in common with other trade centers already within the combine's dictation. The meet ing was one of the best attended and live liest held since the organization started. President W. IT. Willett was in the chair, and Secretary R. C. Dalzell recorded the minutes of the proceeding". Messrs. James C. O'Donnell, Charles Hubler, J. L. Hall and J. H. Friday made lengthy speeches, all in the same strain, in which the combine and all of its accessories were roundly denounced. -The following resolutions were unanimously adopted after a heated debate of nearly tour hours: Some Pointed Resolutions. Whereas, We aie informed that at a meet ing of the wholesale grocers of Philadelphia, Plttsbnrg, Cleveland and other towns in the West, held In Pittsburg on Tues day of this week a combination was formed to control the price of sugar wost ot New York; and Whereas, Prom our knowledge of trusts we believe that they are dangerous and against the Intel est of tho consnmcr, their object being to advance the price above a legitimate profit itesolved. That we condemn the action of the wholesale grocers' associations in enter ing into an agreement with outside mer chant' in the regularity of the selling price of sugar, believing that merchants should have the privileges of i emulating and con ducting tiieir business according to their own ideas without interference from any one. Resolved, That there be a committee of flvo appointed to diaft resolutions expres sive ot the sense of the retail irrocers on the question, and report to an adjourned meet ing to be held on next Monday evening, Sep tember 19. Chairman Willett appointed the follow ing committee to draft the resolutions: J. C. Hubler, J. C. O'Donnell, M. J. McDon ald, J. H. Friday and S. B. Charters. After Short-Weight Coal Dealers.
