Indeed, early in the trouble Hueh O'Donnell in an interview explained now "the men of the mill had been divided juto three dUisions, ith 800 Huns under the command of -two Interpreters in reserve. "We claim this was on admission that they had set up their own covermuent, and such conduct is trea sonable. Subsequent events after the mili tary arrived on the scene do not concern us. Wanted a Letter From the Sheriff. "The reason County Detective Beltz ioover made the information is easily ex plained. In the beginning District Attorney Burleigh Baid if the Sheriff Mould write him a letter stat ing that riot and bloodshed had occurred in Homestead he would take the initiative in all the cases, and Mr. Beltz lioover would have 111r.de all the informa tions instead of Secretary Lovejoy. Sheriff JlcCleary, however, declined to write the .letter. "I want to Eav it is a mistake, as re ported, that a charge of treason will be urouckt against the strikers in the Union mills. I do not believe that Superintendent Dillon made the statements accredited to lilm. He is very close-mouthed, and sev eral bogus interviews with him have been published. A charge of treason could not be sustained against these nieu, and I don't think the company ever thought of it." Attorney Brenneu was not in the city yesterday. A visit was paid last evening to liis usual haunts, but the lawyer lor the jnen could not be found. He speut the day in compauy with officials of the Amalga mated Association skirmishing around in search of bill for mem bers of the Advisory Board. It is not known what success he had. Peo ple will admit that it is no small matter to jret security tor I3 men in f 10,000 lor each one that is preperty worth 830,000 would liave to be pledged, and according to Ju., Kennedy's l ule that there must be a good juarjin in all the cases, not less than from 5350,000 to 400,000 worth of real estate will le needed. Some of the men are well Sied and will be expected to produce their own bail. Others haven't much to go on, and it is understood the Amalgamated Afst.( .atiou uiil help them out. V.aitinc Until They Get BalL It is not kuo n how many of the accused will apnear in court this morning, but it is certain none of them now at large will oe on hand unless they have the bail. Uo arrebts were made yesterday, and appar ently the office) s have given up the pur suit. It is claimed this is a scheme to throw tie men ou" tb-ir guard. The prosecution Elates that William lioberts was in Pitts burg Saturday night, and they were in formed yesterday that he and McConegly lad cleared out. The friends ot lioberts laugh at this report, and tay he is lying low until lie can secure "the necessary amount of bail. Attorner John IT. Cos put in the time in Homestead getting together all the bondsmen he could find. The nine men in the county jail charged with treason take their imprisonment as coolly as they have taken the other charges against them growing out of the Homestead riots. Hugh O'Dounell only laughs wheu the Minject 13 mentioned, saying he is not afraid of the resul. and he appears to feel that his cause has been helped rather t'isn injured by the new charge. The Home stead men are all quiet about this matter nut decline to tall;, a has been theircustom ever since the first arrest was made. Yes terday they took their places with the 200 other prisoners in the jail at the services in the atternoon, listening to a short sermon bv Itcv. Jlr.

He was seen last night and asked re gaining tho an est of Homesteaders on charees of treason, and about the warrant on which he also is wanted in Pittsburg. He said- "It is only what 1 expected.

SECRETED IN OTHER TOWNS. Members of the Advisory Board Said to Be In McKeesport and Braddock Ball Ready for Some of the Men Cold Weather Bough on the Soldiers. C Another unsuccessful search was made at Homestead yeste'rday for defendants in the treason suits by the authorities. The bouses of the missing strikers were watched, as well as trains and thoroughfares, but none of the wanted men showed up. It is said that on Friday night, when the arrests became noised through the borough, those who were yet at large quietly left, and went to friends at Braddock and McKees port, where they are secreted. Now that the first excitement is dying out, the strikers have begun to believe that the new charges will prove beneficial to them in bringing the Homestead lockout once more berore the public in the country, which will rosult In additional financial contributions from trades unions and othor labor assemblies. Friends of the Imprisoned leaders have not been sleeping, but have been energet ically hustling to secure ball, and sufficient amounts aroreadyto secure tire release in tho morning ot oonn uieriten ana wiiuam and flnnliop T- IB nvnnAt-Arl -Vn-11 rt irn vinn urtlt oo at liberty by nightfall. It is understood .u nomesieau mac wniio cue nail was piacea at $10,000, it will require about $15,000 in each case, and bondsmen are being secured with this object in view. Tho strikers and locked out men have braced up considerably under tho excitement, and apparently there Is no sign of weakening along tho line, from tho tonnage men to yard laborers. llev. John A. Hanks conduoted the usual morning services in tho mill, and ill the afternoon Rev. Jlr. Ilazclton, or Washing ton, Pa., spoke to the colored non-unionists, of w horn there are several hundred now cm ployed. A coal and iron policeman was discharged for fi;htins with a fellow officer In tho yard on Saturday night. It Is claimed among the strikers that over 100 non-unionists quit on Saturday night who will not return in the morning. The cold weather is proving a little severe on the tioops, as cana3 tents nre frail pro tection and tho heavy night foss which now swoop up tho hill from the i i or soak them and even penetrate the blankets ol the men. The soldiers are made as comfoi table as pos sible, though, by Colonel Hillings and do not complain. They now think they will not leavo Homestead before winter. S0UTHSIDE WATER. The Question Exciting Some Comment on That Side of the Elier tho reoplo Afraid to Drink Monongahela Water Some Change Soon Necessary. The water question Is being discussed as actively on the Southsideas Ip other parts of tho city. All seem to feel the need of some change in tho present system of water w orks, but what that chango should be is not fully comprehended by the people. Tho Southside can hardly bo said to be allllcted with a water famine, as there iB apparently plentv of water, but it is of such a quality as to be unfit for domestic purposes. One tact Is evident, that there are many South aiders who never drink the water supplied by tho Slonougahola Water Company. "We never hear complaints about water until there is a Are," said Prothonotary John Bradley last nhjht. "Just at present there is a good supply, but of what quality I wouldn't like to say. But when there is any demand for water there is a great noise about it. This is proof that some chamro should be made. The question should bo discussed, so that when a move Is made no mistako could be made. The Indian creek plan oecms to be a pood one, though. I havo given the subject littlo thought We must havo some cheme to supply tho citv with waterand she would do well to stir herself and get i eady in time." V. J. McGarey said: "The wator system of tiie Southside is in a terrible condition. In fact, it is bad in both Pittsburg and Alle gheny, yet I believe we are rather better off than either of them. I haven't drank a glass of Southside water for years nor does any of my family. I know a number of families that w ill not touch It, It isa matter of uBhort time till some plan must be adopted to remedy this. Wo set our water from the 31onongahcla, and now nave most to lear irom Homestead. Wc Kecsport is too far away to do us much damage, but tho river will soon bo lined With one continuous town and then look out. The Indian creek plan Is the best I havo seen yet.'" There is littlo complaint beins mado on the Southside as to sickness. Many claim they have fewer sick people than any part of the city. Tho water supply has been about equal to the demand tor some time, but the people have been sparing in Its use. A ceneral desire is expressed to havo the water improved and that as soon as practic able. COLLECIIKG SXHEET CAS FAKES. How Different People Annoy Conductors in Paylns for Their Hides. "I don't like to have Hungarians for passongers," said a street car conductor last evening after he had received a handful ot pennies for laio for a number of thorn whohadjnst entered tho car. "Why? Be cause they always havo their clothes full of pennies and small change that Is a nui sanco." "After many trips," ho continued, "I havo more coppers than I can handle, as many people will not take pennies for change. Tho company don't ltko them either, so I havo to get rid of them the best lean. Now, coloicd people aro just the op posite. A colored man may have plenty of change, but if ho had a dollar in his pocket, he is snre to get it changed. I havo learned this so well that when a colored man wants chanse, I usually return tho dollar, and ask for the exact tare. It w orks like a charm cverytime and I have no trouble." AH0THEB ELECT3IC BOAIX The Central Traction Commences to Operate Its New System. The Central Traction Company yesterday began to run the trolley cars of tho Center avenue branch downtown. Such a step has been contemplated ever since tho electric system was put into effect, but for some reason it was delayed until yesterday. Tho trolley cars are run down to tho power house on Wylie avenue, wlioro they are coupled to the cable cars and make tho balance of the trio as trailers. On the leturn trip tho trolley is cut loose from tho cable car at Grant street and Webster avenue, com pleting the circuit alone by electric power. The tirst day with the now system proved very satisfactory, the electric cars climbing the steep Wylie a venne hill in good time. In response to a general demand trom peo pln along the route tho company Is prepai Jug to run all-nigh tears by their new elcctrio system. The niaht curs will run every half hour tho same as th6 Uuquesnc, but will not go below Grant stieet. Fatally Hurt by a TalL Nicholas Shearer, a 12-year-old boy, living on the Perrj-svillo road, fell from a wagon yesterday and was fatally injuied. As tho team turned from tho plank path into a by way the little fellowtumbled off and had his head crushed so that tho brains oozed out. lie died within an hour and will be burled to-day.

THE OAEE OF INEBRIATES. Cared for 310 Alcoholic Subjects in Only Three Months. A TEXT FOE THE TEETOTALERS. The First Tear of Warden McAleese's Man agement inds To-Day. THE BEST KEPT PRISON IN THE COUNTRY To-day closes the first year of John Mc Aleese's administration as warden ot the county jail. It has been a successful year for him. Never before was the manage ment of the prison the subject of so much complimentary criticism from the court aud the officers who compose the prison board. The institution itself has been frequently commented upon for its remarkable clean liness and freedom from objectionable features always connected with prisons or other buildings in which many people live and sleep During the past few months several men, whose business it is to visit the prisons of the country, have declared the Allegheny county jail the cleanest and best arranged in the United States, excepting only that at Albany, N. Y., which is no better. Of the more than 10,000 prisoners handled by the warden in the past year, none have escaped and only two have died. One of the deaths was a prisoner who was sent to the jail dying from consumption and ex pired a few hours after, notwithstanding extraordinary efforts to prolong life. The other was a suicide who took his own life in a fit of despondency immediately after be ing placed in a cell and before his intention was suspected. A Free Inebriate Asylum. The warden attributes the remarkably low death rate to the care exercised in the handling of prisoners. According to a re port submitted to the Prison Board last Saturday by Jail Physician Chessrown, more cases of habitual drunkenness and alcoholism are treated in the Allegheny county jail than in all the inebriate asylums and special institutions for the treatment of such coses in the United States. During the quarter ended September 30, the total of alcohol cases treated was 310. This was the lowest record for any quarter in the year. Comparatively few of such cases were serious enough to be sent to the hospital, but they were treated in their cells and cured up as well as the time they were de tained would permit. Kine-tenths of the prisoners taken to the county jail are suffering from the effects of drink when they go in. Many of them are in a frightful physical condition. Men and women, arrested during or just after pro tracted debauchcs,are frequently sent to jail b;f the police magistrates to get them away from the temptation and to give them a chance to "sober up." Prompt Medical Relief Furnished. Often the unfortunate prisoners are in a collapsed condition from exposure, and should properly be scut to the hospital gather than the jail, because without imme diate and skillful treatment they would die in less than 24 hours. All the employes know this, and as soon as a man enters the prison, if he shows any evidence of dissipa tion, he is placed under treatment, the vigor of which varies according to his con dition. It is common for a prisoner to get a dose of medicine and a warm bath before he eves reaches his cell In severe cases, where the man is suffering from delirium tremens and exposure, such cases being fre quent, a system of treatment is followed which has always proved efficacious. When the case is too serious for the jail employes, Dr. Chessrown iB summoned. Under the course of treatment now in vogue many lives have been saved. The use of the padded cell has been almost en tirely dispensed with, an apparatus devised by the Warden being used instead, which is far more humane in the treatment and superior in results. Discovered a New Disease. In the report of Dr. Chessrown there ap pears in the list of cases treated during the past three months, 110 cases of worry. When a prisoner is brought in in good health physically, but apparently much worried over his crime or his imprisonment, he is placed under a system of treatment just the same as if suffering from a disease. Worry, the ' doctor, says, is as serious often as any disease he has to handle. Some times prisoners will sit in their cells for days and nights, refusing to eat, drink or Bleep, simply worrying. If allowed to con tinue so they might become insane, commit suicide or contract a disease of some other kind, their system at such a time being particularly lfable to disease. Medicines and tonics are given in such cases to induce an appetite, but the best effort is secured by what the Warden calls "jollying them along." He talks to them, cheers them up and finally causes them to forget their troubles after which their cure is easy. 22KD TO KICK IN THE D00E. West End Boys Blako an Effort to Brealc Into a Pole's IIooso. Quite a commotion was caused in tho West End yesterday afternoon by a fight at tho hold of Steuben street. A Pole, who lives there, had left his home to go to the Pittsburg sldoof the river, leaving his Wife and chil dren nt home. In his absence a crowd of boys went to tho house aud began throwing stones aud trying to kick in one of tho doors. One ot the children ran out of a Side door and rushed down to the police station. Sergeant JlcCurry and an officer went up, but all the boys escaped before any arrests w ore made. Several of the party are known and are expected to be arrested to-day. No cause Is given for tho attack on tho house. Keeping Ahead of Their Orders. For the past two or three weeks the Edgar Thomson Steel Works, at Braddock, have only been operated five days and a half in tho week, shutting down on Saturday morn ing and resuming operations on Sunday nigbt The management gives as a reason that, whilo the -mills have plenty of orders on hund, they are running ahead of them. This system or shutting down also enables them to make repairs on Saturday, Instead ot on Sunday, as heretofore, when they were obliged to pay mechanics and laboiers for extra time. Going After Mrs. Marsh. Detectives Coulson and Boblnson left for Now York City last night to bring Mrs. Jen nie Marsh and James Mcintosh to this city In connection with the Gamble Wetrcase. The papers for their requisition were sent to Albany last Friday aud to be forwarded lrom there to Superintendent of Police Will lams, of New Yonr, w ho will turn them over to the Pittsburg officers when they arrive: It is expected tho two defendants will arrive here by Tuesday. A West End Benefit, The United Order of Workmen held a con ceit In tho Metropolitan Hall, West End, Saturday night for the benefit of Simon Stutz, which was well attended and a neat sum netted. THE PROBE TO BE USED In Investigating the Causes Leading to Grace Brown's Crime Coroner Mc Dowell's Experience With Infanticide Cases A Lawyer Who Will Volunteer to Defend the Girl. Some interesting development! may be looked for when the trial of Grace Brown ia taken up In the courts. Miss Brown is the young girl from 'Bissell station who was arrested last Friday, charged with murder ing her new-born offspring and burying it in a grave of quick lime under the family residence. The case has attracted unusual attention among the people In the vicinity ot McKeesport and among the Balti more and Ohio employes, not alone because of the beauty of the girl, but be cause both she and Oliver Meredith, who is coucemod in the case, are so well and favor ably known. Meredith, it is said, was edu cated tor tno ministry, nas always oorno a reputation for exceptionally correct behav ior and his fellow employes declare be Is not guilty of the orimo charged against him In this case. Another railroad brakeman, who died several montns,ago, is anesea oy mem to have been the oiiginal cause of the trouble. Coroner McDowell, In speaking .of this case yesterday, said it was remarkable the number of infanticide cases he had invest! cated in tho vicinity of McKeesport The first case he had after he became Coroner was at West Klizabeth. A babe with a rope around its neck attached to a big stono was found in the river, but it was not until a year later when an exactly similar case was found near the same place, that both crimes were traced to tho inotber, Agnes Wilson. During the past ten days there have been lour infanti cide cases. Threo of these have been lo cated in the samo section up the Mononga hela. One was the case of Mary Anderson, residing near Elizabeth, a pretty littlo Scotch "girl who Is now in Jail. Another was tho infant found In the river above Du quesno, the mother of which has not been apprehended. The third was that of Grace Brown, the 16-year-old school clrl who, with her alleged lover, is now waiting for trial. He is not connected with the death of the child, but there aro serious charges against him. "The case or Grace Brown," said the Cor oner, "is a sad one, but her position Is one to which hundreds of young girls within a few miles of Pitcahunr aie exposed oveiy day. Evory young girl who rides on the railroad trains to and from school every day is sub jected to more or less temptation and in suit "A prominent attorney of this city who rides on tho trains every day told mo yos teiday that he intends to take an active part iu the defense of Grace Brown in order r llittM. 4 n liiDll.n (.mnr. rf ,Iia .wiOcn.il i.

WILL AFFECT THE VOTE. A Philadelphia Democrat's Opinion of the Baker Ballot Law. Hon. Richard Vaux, ex-Mayor of Philadel phia, has been in town for the past two days In connection with tho grand annual visita tion of the Grand Masonic Lodgo of this State, of which he is Past Grand Master. The ex-Mayor is a veteran Democrat and made a strong fight against the force bill during the closing days of the Fifty-first Congress. Chatting on politics Mr. Vaux said to a Dispatch i eporter, that the Baker ballot law wan puzzling quite a number of people at the picseut time. lie felt quite sure that both parties would lose a considerable num ber of votes through mistakes In balloting. The State vote wnuld be much smaller than at tho last Prestdental election, but how much no one could attempt to surmise. "The establishment of such a law," con tinued Mr. Vaux, "is a novelty to the peo ple. The changing of any system of long standing to a new and more Intiieato one id always accompanied by complication and contention. It will be so in this case with out doubt. The niotliod to be used in vot ing now is unquestionably vary complicated and is bound to raise contusion. "Of course the courts havo not yet had anychanco todecido u case In this connec tion and the public aro in ignorancoof tho system's meaning. Tholormot the ballot Is very intricate and would require consider able explanation to certain classes of voters. Sobools are now being started for the pur pose of instruction and will likely do a gt eat deal of good. A great deal will depend ou the election officers and the way they treat mistakes in voting."

COLDEST THIS FALL The First Touch of a Cold Winter ' Ushered in Yesterday WITH FROST ON THE HOUSETOPS. Overcoats Are Bronsht From Their Summer Biding Places. WARMER WEATHEB PROMISED TO-DAT Yesterday was the coldest day so far this fall. 'Day broke with evidences of Jack Frost's work sticking on the fences and housetops. The thermometer had dropped down to 40 degrees during the night, and the hottest rays of Old Bol could not get it higher than 63 all day. The morning's frost was not what the weather experts call a "killing" one, but Is considered by them as a very beneficial thing to the farmers. It will make tho grapes more ripe and give the apples a rosier hue. October is always the turning month, but as a usual thing the turn is not made with quite bo much frigidness attached as was displayed yesterday. The coldest day ever known in October was in 1887. The tern peratnre then took a tumble to 20 degrees. The coldest weather in October comes usually between the fifteenth and twentieth. When tho Killing Frosts Come. During that period the weather man's "killing" frosts appear. There'is one nice thing about this cold snap it will not last long. According to Mr. Stewart, of the Weather Department, to-day is to be much warmer than yesterday. From th.is on until winter comos in earnest, the weather is to bo of a varied nature, cold one day and warm the next. Last night was a trifle cooler than was Saturday evening, and early risers to-day will no doubt see a fair sprinkling of white adorning their back fences. Everybody, who Is the least hit sensi tive to cold, was shivering yesterday. Tho old question. "Is it cold enough for yout" which has been off on a five-months' vacation, was ushered out yesterday and put into very active use. Fires weio lighted where they have not burned since May and tho moth balls werp shaken out of many an oveicoat. Pedes trians sought the sunny side of tho streets and tho loafers gathered where Sol's rays shined the warmest. Music cortainly must have charms, for despite all the freezing evidences, 1,600 people shivered out i Schenley Park for an hour yesterday after noon listening to the last of the sacred con certs. The Evening Spent in Shivering. When tho sun sank in the west last night a fiesh and more rugged supply of shivers was passed around. The streets presented a different appearancs from that of the usual Sunday evening. Nearly everyone was in a hurry and those who had to stop on street corners waiting for cars, put In the timeshruguing their shoulders. It is safe to say that every peison who owned an overcoat was wearing ft. Those who do not own overcoats, or at least possess the right to wear them, were easily picked out. In front of more than one shop, where tho three golden-hued balls dangle, were groups ot men who had put their monoy on the wrong horso at Homewood, or had read with dissatisfaction of Corbctt's victory, looking longingly through the windows at a display of half-worn top coats. Tho boll which ranc September 1, calling in the straw hats of '92, could hardly have clanged loud enough. Last night, on crowded Fifth avonuo, there were two indi viduals who still clung to their headgear ot a summer's day. Ono man must have evi dently been ashamed of his for it was painted black. The other wearer was a tourist who was held in quarantine for 20 days and had not heard -the clanging of fashion's bell. A HAED HUE TO LITE. Alleghenlans Suffer From Both Hot and Cold Weather Diseases.

Six died of cholera Infantum, 4 of consumption, S of typhoid fever, 2 of scarlet fover, of maras mus, 5 of pneumonia and 3 violent deaths.

OREGON'S CR0NIN SUSPECT. He Seems Nervous Over the Accusation, but Prison Officials Are Skeptical. Salem, Oke., Oct. 2. The dispatch last night from Chicago, that Thomas Coleman, now confined In the ponitentiary here, is supposed to have been connected with the murder of Dr. Cronin, was news to tho prison officials, who state that they have had no communication with Chicago officials about the matter. They claim to have heard a rumor that Coleman was connected with the crime, but put no faith in the story. Coleman was sent here from Portland in March, 189!, to serve two years for assault with a dangerous weapon. He has been a "trusty" up to two months ago, when a bench warrant for his arrest came from Portland, where be is wanted to answer a charge of robbery with assault. Coleman is smooth and has the appear ance of being an all-around crook. When he heard of the dispatch this morning, con necting him with Dr. Cronln's murder, 'ho said he would have no trouble In clearing himself of the charge. He formerly lived In Chicago, where he now lias a brutbor and three sisters living. He seemed nervous when speaking about Chicago, and when he was permitted to read tho Chicago dispatch his hand quivered and tears came to his eyes. Tu o mouths ago, when Coleman had his trustyship taken away, he asked the reason, and said that he presumed it was on account of "that Cronin matter." A SUDDEN DEATH. George S.

HE THREATENS TO ENTER SUITS Against Ills Assailants for Conspiracy and Assault. CHARGED WITH BEING A TEESPASSEE There wai a lively time at a Hebrew lodge meeting on Market street last night. Jacob Fineberg, member of Horning Star Lodge, Sons of Benjamin, took possession of the lodge room before the other members arrived and as they declared him nota mem ber they ordered him out. Fineberg de clared himself a member and refused to leave. A meeting could not be held while Fineberg was present and the police were appealed to. When an officer went to the place he found Fineberg the qnietest man there and decided not to make any arrests. Subsequently a committee of the lodge members throw Fineberg out bodily. , He de clares they assaulted him with their fists at the same timo ana says he will to-day bring suit against the lodge for conspiracy and against the'persons who put him out for as sault. The trouble dates back to la May and is the result of Finebarg'a delinquency in lodeo dues. The organization is a beneficial one. Flnebers claims he paid his dues and was in good standing until about ten weeks ago when he wns taken sick Tor three weeks during which his dues lapsed. But he claims the laws of the orer compel the lodge to keep a sick member's dnea paid up until he recovers. Fineberg also claims that an effort was made to sell or transfer him to another lodge which he resisted, saying he would havo remained in ltussia if he knew he was to be sold here. A few weeks ago Fineberg went to the lodgo and was refused admittance. The next meeting night be got there before the other members who adjourned without a session because of his being there. At the next meeting he did the tame thing. The chair man of the lodge ordered a committee to throw him out, but only one man would serve and a fine of $1 each was imposed on tho others. Last night the members were a little more resolute and carried the order into execution. They elalm Fineberg is no longer a member, that he was a trespasser and that they had a light to eject him.
