could wish to see, the little fellow related tl.e story without a falter. He was neatly dressed "in his school clothes and wore his marching cap. He did not seem to realize his position, and talked of the affair with- oat reserve or emotion. ratal Uso of a Christmas Gin. Tn the main his statement corroborated that of George Stivanson and the other bovs who were present except as to the size of the knife. At first he declared it was a small knile with only one broken blade, bnt later admitted it was a large jack-knife which his mother had given him ior a Christmas present The wound indicates, superficially, that a large knife was used. Though the exact course of the knile will not be known until a poet mortem examination is made, it is believed it passed through a portion of the lung and into the heart at the aorta. Stivanson was alio a handsome boy, and, as he lar on a couch in his father's parlor last night", he looked like a pretty woman sleeping. The grief of the mo'thcr was painful to witness, and as tha great gaping wound was exposed to the view ot the neighbors who by the hundred thronged in to gaze npen the dead boy, her suffering was indescribable. Halt a block away another mother was suffering even as acutely. Coupled with her distress of mind over the fact that her baby boy had become a murderer, Mrs. Rodgcrs was suffering intensely from a seri ous physical ailment which has threatened her life for months. She was seized with a lainting spell when the painful news was broken to her. and late last night her con dition was critical. Coroner McDowell is investigating the case, and will bold an inquest to-morrow. NEARLY A REPETITION. Another ratality Narrowly Avoided on SinlthGeld Street The Banks or the Alle gheny Central Republican Clnb Broken Through Tho Jllotornian Arrested. A small sized riot occurred at the corner of Smithfield and "Water streets yesterday morning when a motorman on the, Birming ham line attempted to run his car through the ranks of Allegheny Central Republican Club. A repetition of the "Wylie avenue accident of Saturday evening last was nar rowly averted. Five men were knocked down, but not injured seriously. They were thrown i toward the sidewalk and dashea on the cobblestones with considerable force. The club was on its way to the Baltimore and Ohio station to take the train for Wheeling, when car Xa 10 caine dashing along and broke through the marching columns. In a moment the car was surrounded by men and every window in the car was broken to pieces. A dozen stalwart fellows rushed into the car and grabbed the motorman, and gave him probably the soundest thrashing he or any other motorman ever received. Tiie racn who were injured did not go to "Wheeling-, but proceeded at once to swear out a warrant lor the motorman's arrest, lie was placed in custody in the afternoon. CABS HAVE THE EIGHT OF "WAY. Chief Brown Issnes an Order to Govern Parades and Prevent Accidents. Chief Brown yesterday issued an order thnt marching clubs and all street parades must give up the right of way to traction car?, on steea grades and elsewhere, when it can be done. Policemen are required to arrest captains or commanders ot organiza tions failing to comply with tbe order. Cniel Brown justifies his action in issuing the order by referring to the accidents of Saturday night and yesterday morning. "If some understanding is had as to who has the right of way," said the Chief, "such accidents can be avoided. The greatest convenience of the greatest num ber is assured by giving the cars the right. Parades are out ior show and recreation. People on street cars are ceuerally in a hurry and there are more of them than the men in parade. Moreover, there is plenty ot room on most streets for processions to move between the car tracks and the curb. On other streets, where the tracks prac tically fill the street, the order don't go. The cars roust wait until the procession moves out of the way." DETECTIVE SIUEBHY ABEESTED. Editor Kovniak Charges Conspiracy In Con nection With His Arrest. Detective P. J. Murphy was arrested yesterday pn a warrant sworn out by Peter V. Eovniak, the editor of a Slavonic paper, who claims to have been kidnaped on Friday last. The charge on the warrant was conspiracy, and Detective Finney, formerly in the employ of the Murphy Agency, made the arrest. Tne complainant alleges that he was kid naped and taken to "Wilkesbarre without being apprised of any charge or given an opportunity to give bail. This action, Itovniak says, was the result of a conspir acy entered into between the defendant, Constable D. J. Gallagher and Ker. Joseph F. KossalUe. A suit lor damages, it is said, will follow the trial for conspiracy, and a petition will be presented to court to revoke Murphy's license. Murphy waived a. hearing and gave bail for court. BAKED THE NECESSAEY FUNDS. A Prominent Merchant Assists a Pather to Recover His Son's Body. The body of E. J. Dougherty, which had been shipped here irom Chicago C O. D. and upon which there were 5138 70 charges, was removed to the home of his parents yesterday through the kindness of some merchants. The father was too poor to raise the necessary funds, and he was tinable to get the bodv from the station. A merchant read tbe story in the papers, and immediately set to nork to raise the neces sary funds. In a short time he succeeded. He went at once to the station and ordered the body removed to the parents' home. Had a Narrow Escape. A fire started early yesterday morning in a three-story house in Skunk Hollow. Michael McGrim, thl tenant, accidentally discovered it through smelling the burning wood. He.hastcned up stairs to arouse his wife and tour children. The flames made such progress that the stairway was com pletely demolished before the children could be dressed. They were let down on the ground through a window and escaped any injury. Ko Sickness at Kensington. Mr. Henry L. Ebbert yesterday most em phatically denied tbe statement that Ken sington was threatened with an epidemic of diphtheria as an afternoon paper stated on Monday. He was positive in the assertion that jvensington had net a single case of diphtheria within its borders, and consid ered that it had been done a gross injustice by the mistaken report, and tnat it was just as thriving and flourishing a center activ ity ever. Drank Carbolic Acid by Mistake. Andrew Schwab, of Cliff street, Alle gheny, died about 7 o'clock yesterday morn ing from tlie effects of a dose of carbolic acid taken bv mistake for whisky. Schwab had been married about one year and was j employed at the Pittsburg Xiocomotlve Works. Ex-TJeutenant Foster Buried.

HOSTS FOR CHICAGO, Representatives of State and National Governments- Who Will Assist IN THE FAIE DEDICATION. Five Sections of the Limited Heeded to Carry the People VIES OF CABINET OFFICERS. Mr. TYanamater Thinks tbe Republicans Will Carry New York. BUSINESS MEN DDNT WANT A CHANGE Five magnificent sections of the Chicago limited rolled into tbe Union depot last evening going "West Seldom has auch a large and distinguished crowd of people stopped in tbe dingy station at one time as those who alighted from the trains for a short tramp on the platform. They were repreSentativesofthelfational Government, several Eastern States and of a nnmbcr of foreign countries bound for Chicago to at tend the dedication of the "World's Fair buildings. Three of the sections came from "Washington; one carried Governor Patti son and his staff", the brigadier generals and their staffs and the State Fair Commission ers. After the regular limited arrived the others followed in close order. Governor Pattison's party occupied the first section, then came the Cabinet officers, the United States Supreme Court Justices and the dip lomatic corps. Cabinet Officers on the Train. j X)n the Cabinet officers' train were Post- State John "W. Foster and his wife, Secre tary Tracy, Attorney General Miller, Mrs, "Wilmerding and Miss "Wilmerding, Secre tary If able and wife and Miss Halstea, Miss Elkins, Assistant Secretary Solely and others. Secretaries Foster and Kusk will meet the Cabinet in Chicago. Secretary Tracy and Mr. "Wanamaker spent the time pacing np and down the depot The Postmaster General wore a white slouch hat and his usual pious smile. "When asked what States he considered doubtful, Mr. "Wanamaker replied promptly: "I think President Harrison will carry all the States he did before. Some people imagine that Kew York will go Demo cratic, but I am not afraid of that State. The business men will save it for the Re publican party. "What can be accom plished by a change? The adminis tration has been first-class, and tbe people are satisfied. It is true the campaign is very quiet, but that is not ominous. Unless there is something extra ordinary about a candidate you need not ex pect a hurrah canvass in the future. I think they have passed away. The newspapers discuss all the facts and issues, and the people read them generally. It isn't neces sary for voters to waste much time in cam paigning. . The Peeling of Business Men. "Business men look on a change in gov ernment when there is no good reason for It as stockholders regard a shaking up in a board of directors. "When you talk of change to them, they grow suspicious and lose confidence in the business. The same principle applies to politics. Harrison has made a good President, and the people want him continued in power. I look for a number of - Congressional breaks in North Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee. "We may get the electoral vote of Alabama, but I am not sure ot it7 The South is fast drifting toward Republicanism. "What the people down there want is capital, and they are beginning to learn that no man will invest money with them as long as honest elections are not held. Tbe time is coming when even tbe Southern ers will get tired of disfranchising voters. If the colored people are not allowed to cast their ballots like other citizens then their Congressional represen tation, which is usurped year after year, should be cut off." Secretary Noble said he was preparing a list of what he thinks are doubtful States. He says New York is not one of them, and he is confident of a Republican victory in West Virginia. He Has Hopes of Alabama. He hasn't made up his mind about Ala bama, but he would not be surprised to see the electoral vote cast tor Mr. Harrison. Mr. Noble is not worrying about Colorado or Nevada. He doesn't believe tbe West ern Republicans will be foolish enough to waste their votes on Weaver. Secretary Tracy remarked that New York was all right. He says tbe Repub licans have nothing to fear from a quiet campaign. J. lie train carrying tne justices ot the United States Supreme Court attracted a great deal of attention. Mrs. Sbiras and George IIX were at tbe depot to meet the husband and father; so was Sol Schoycr, who took advantage of the opportunity to congratulate his old partner in the law. As soon as the train stopped, the tall frame of Justice Shiras was visible near the door. He evidently knew a number of iriends were waiting to greot him, and he was soou on the platform, where he was surrounded. Mrs. Shiras asked if there was a place on the train for her. "Why, certainly," the new Justice replied, "there will always be a place for you," and then he helped his wife into the car. Mr. Shiras looks well, and is not out ot place with the other big beaded, smooth - faced Judges. The Supreme Court on Board. Those on tho train were Chief Justice Fuller and his wife.Jnstice Harlan, Justice Gray and his wife. Justice Brewer and Mrs. Brewer. Justice Brown, Justice Shiras and Mrs. Sbiras, Marshal J. M. Wright and Clerk McKenney. On the first section of the 'limited was George W. Childs, the veteran editor of the Philadelphia Ledger. He asked a great many questions about Homestead, remarked that the men- had made a bad mess ot it, and he was sorry for them. He concluded by saying that the Republicans would elect their President. Mr. Childs received quite an ovation from people on the other trains who knew him. On the train with Mr. Childs was tbe New Jersey delegation. Governor Abbett couldn t come, but he was represented by General W. S. Stryker. In the party were ex-United States Senator Cattell, Mrs. Yardlcy and Sarah G. Ware, the lady com missioners, State Treasurer Gray, General John D. McGill, General Spencer and others. There were 30 in all It was rumored that Chairman Harrity was on the Pennsylvania train, bnt this was a mistake. Mr. Harrity is too busy at present watching the Democratic forces to leave New York. Governor Pattlson "Will Not Speak. Governor Pattison was quite gracious and cordial. He said he wouldn't make any speeches in the campaign. He thinks the Democrats never nad such a chance to "win, and he looks for Cleve land to have a great Tictory. He believes that West Virginia and New York will be Democratic. James Atwell, ex Postmaster Xarkin and ex-Sherifi Gufley called on the GoVernor. Mr. Atwell as THE P1TTSBUR& sured Mr. Pattison that the Democrats were doing well in the western part of the State He thought it looked as though the Republicans were on the run, when they schedule such a prominent man as ex Speaker Reed to sneak in'Pittsburg. The party on the Pennsylvania train in cluded GoVernor and Mrs. Pattison, Miss Pattison, Chief Justice and Mrs. Paxson, Ljcutenant Governor Wntres, Mrs. "Watrcs, Executive Commissioner Farquhar and -his assistant, Jere 8. Black; of he World's Fair Board; Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Guffey, Major L. E. Bent, Colonel James E Young, Mr. and'Mrs. A.

Singer, Commissary; Major Jacob J. Miller, Judge Advocate; Captain George Hamilton, Aid de Camp; Captain John P. Penney, Aid de Camp. The oddest collection was the diplomatic corps. They occupied teu Pullman cars. When the foreign diplomats swarmed on the depot platform a stranger would have been paralyzed w itb the babel of strange tongues beard on all sides. A beautiful girl sat on the platform of the rear car singing in French, "I Am Just as Young as I Used to Be." Then she jumped down from the steps with several young fellows, and gave them a lively foot race to the other end of the station. Spanish, German, Italian, Chinese, English, French and other lan guages were strangely intermingled. EMERY IS DISGUSTED. Not Enough Money to Make a Respectable OH Display at the Fair The Standard Is Doing Nothing His Faith in Harri son. Lewis Emery, Jr., of Bradford, and his wife registered at tbe Duquesne yesterday. Mr. Emery is a member of the State World's Fair Commission and joined th Pennsylvania party for Chicago last even ing. Since his great fight against Dels mater two yean ago Mr. Emery has not taken an active part .in politics. He says he is too busy with his affairs. "I know that President Harrison will be re-elected," he "began. "I base my hopes on the good sense of the American people. I don't think our citizens are quite ready to turn this country over to the Democrats as long as they have snch a vicious plat form. It would be ruinous to introduce wildcat banking again." It was reported that Mr. Emery intended to establish a center here for his extensive hardware business, but he said it was not true. He has been delegated to get up an oil exhibit for the Fair.but his progress has been so slow on account of scarcity of funds that he is disgusted. "What can be ex pected from the States," he said, "afte- the niggardly 'conduct of Con gress with the appropriations ? , That man Holman is too narrow and is. not well enough acquainted with the interests of the country to dictate our financial policy. As tor the Pennsylvania oil exhibit, I have about come to the conclnsion that it won't amount to much. The Standard at first took a lively interest, but the managers are very apathetic now, and are doing nothing. I know the reason, but I don t care to speak of it now. They may come into line later, but it is a question. My idea was to have a big tank erected and inside to show all the products of petroleum and how wells are drilled. This was done at the Paris Ex position, and the city paid the hill, but in this country with such a close Congress we cau't do anything. Oh, certainlv, we will have some kind of an oil exhibit. It will probably consist of a display of all the oil, products, but it won't be what it should' be." Mr. Emery added that they are making good progress on the new pipe line to the seaboard. It will soon be finished. FELL OFF A TEAIH. Councilman Green, of Philadelphia, Meets With a Fatal Accident. Bernard J. Green, a member of the Phil adelphia Select Council and a well-known politician, fell from a special train at Son man early yesterday morning. He was a member of a party of Philadelphians headed by Mayor Stuart and going to Chicago. Mr. Green was found by a freight crew lying on the cross pieces of abridge across Ben's Creek. He was taken to the Johnstown hospital where he soon afterward died. His head was crushed in and his left leg broken. He had $105 in his pocket, and from papers on his person it was learned who he was. t The unfortunate man was partially dressed, and it is supposed got up in bis sleep, and, in trying to walk from one car to the other, fell off. "When the train reached the Union depot it was still early, and his companions and the crew did not miss him. The party was notified by telegraph at Canton of the sad accident. With Mayor Stuart were James H. Wind rim, Elias P. Smithers, WenceL Hartman and other well-known Quaker City people. Chapman Family Reunion. Members of the Chapman family, of whom it is claimed there are 12,000 in the United States, met in Union Veteran Legion Hall yesteniay and arranged for a eencral reunion, which will be held in Chicago next Augnst. At the meeting yesterday Thomas W. Chapman, ot Muncie, Ind., was elected president; Mrs. Ella Graf ton Swaney (Chapman), of New Cumber land, W. Va., secretary; and Captain W. B. Chapman, of Bradford, Pa., historian. I ' LOOK FOR THE ! Classified Advertisements . ON THE EIGHTH PAGE TO-DAY; I rww DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY, CHDR6HMEN AT WAR. Bev. Mr. Graham's Sympathizers Are Kefased a Place ot Worship. THEIR PETITION TURNED DOWN. Seceders .Will Not Istablish a Church at ' Jack's Kan. THE MINISTER DEFENDS IIIS PEOPLE The adjourned meeting of the Allegheny Presb y tery of the U. P. Church was held in tho Fifth U. P. Church, Allegheny, last night. The 'important business before the meeting was whether the Presbytery should grant an organization to the members ot the West Bellevue Church who seceded when Rer. Mr. Graham stepped down. A controversy arose in the West Bellevue Church over the Eev.Mr. Graham, who, after 17 years' service, it was alleged by a few members that he did not suit, and alter a lengthy controversy he resigned. His ad herents, however, were not satisfied. Many of them also withdrew from the church. After struggling along for some time a mis sion was established at Jack's Eun and an application was made for an organization, which was referred to a commission, which, after a thorough investigation, presented a recommendation that the organization be not granted. After the reading of the' report last night there seemed to be a general hesitancy to act on the matter. The Moderator an nounced several times that the question was 'before the house for discussion. Finally someone moved that the petition be not granted. Mr. Smith to the Front. At :er a long silence Mr. Smith, a member ot the commission, arpse. He said: "We visited the place and we do not see why an organization should be granted. We found that the people there are given too much to electioneering and are too much like politicians and not enough like Christians. There is entirely too much bickering. The members who signed that petition promise to be liberal and build up a church, but on referring to their records in the old organization,, I think thatdhey will be unable to fulfil their promises judging by what they havo done in the past. I do not think that the breach can ever be healed, as there is en tirely too much bitterness displayed, not only by members, but by the scandal mongers of the town, wbo seemed to take delight in stirring up all the friction pos sible. I do not think that the promises made to the provisional 'session can be kept." Several other members of the commission spoke in the same strain, when it was sug gested that probably the other side had something to say. Samuel Arthur took exception to the statements of the commis sion. He said: "The trouble is that we sympathized with our pastor. Neither side is very strong, but one is just as strong as the other. The church was not run ior the glory of God, but tor the benefit of indi viduals. A Pointed Charge. "I have known of a case where one person did not want preaching at night and his wishes were carried out because he seemed to be running things. In regard to recon ciliation there has never been any attempt made whatever towards it and I can say that if there had been we would not have held back. I concur with Mr. Smith that there is entirelytoo much of the election eering and politician about the church to snit me. As I said before we sympathized with our pastor." ' At this point a member raised a point of order that the centleman was not talking on the question. The Chair sustained the point of order. Mr. Arthur said he was merely replying to remarks made by the former speakers. Another member jumped np. He said he thought the time for the point was when the first speaker had the floor. Quite a discussion arose as to who had the floor, which finally subsided without a word lroin the Moderator. Rev. Graham then arose and asked per mission to speak on the question. He said: "Gentlemen, for 17 yenrs I labored hard and earnestly in Bellevue, and God knows ,1 did the best I could, I may have made mistakes. I don't say I did not The pe tition before you to-night 1 have had noth ing to do with, and did not intend to say anything, but I cannot refrain from calling your attention to the distance of tbe. pro-' posed location from the nearest churches. It is 10,000 feet from the old church, or nearly two miles; 4.000 feet irom the Sixth Church, and 6,000 feet from the Fifth Church. The Claims Made. "The claim is made that if tbe new church is established it will hurt the others, but I claim they will be stronger than ever. Look at the Belleville Church now. Al though I labored lor 17 years with them, in all that time I never saw them working more in unison tban at present. I tnink the petition is an honest one and should be granted." The Secretary then announced that ac cording to the motion if lost no record would be made. He wanted to know what would become of the question. C B. Johnson then moved that the word "not" be dropped from the motion, which was de feated. He then said he did not see whv the Assembly should make fish of one and flesh of another. "Not long ago," said tbe speaker, "a very similar petition came up before the Assembly and it was granted. Now the weaker side does not have a cham pion, else the minds of the Presbytery are alreadv made up not to grant the petition. I don't think it is exactly right." Several other members made brief re marks, after which it was decided not to grant the petition, and an additional church will not be organized at Jack's Bun. AN ALLEGHENY FIEM IN TROUBLE. Joseph Lautner Issnes an Execution Against J. H. Gettleman, His Partner. A special execution for 28,632 43 was issued yesterday by Joseph Lautner and F. G. Bauer against J. H. Gettleman.

He was restored to bis senses after an hour's hard work. .. ,VW OCTOBER 19, 1892. WILL TALK ABOUT SMOKE. A Beport Being Prepared for the Engineers' Society A Paper to Bf Bead at the World's Fair An Interesting Treatise on Mill Buildings. Last night's regular meeting of the Engi neers Society ot Western Pennsylvania was remarkably well attended. President Hunt was in tbe chair, and 11 new members were elected. Mr. W. S. Scaife stated that the Committee on Smoke, appointed to in vestigate and report on the smoke nuisance, smoke consumers, etc., expects to report at the November meeting. And Chairmann Hunt announced that this report would be made the order of business at the next meeting. Mr. W. G. Wilkins was ap pointed as a committee of one to select a paper by a member of the society for pre sentation before the Engineering Congress at the Columbian Exposition. A paper was read by Mr. George H. Hutchinson, .associate member of the Amer ican Society of Civil Engineers, and one of the engineers of the Keystone Bridge Works. His subject was "Mill building construction with details from practice." The paper wa an epitome ot the general practice in the design of mill structure, special attention being paid to the strains induced by wind pressure. k Three general types of bnildings were dealt with, tbe first having a rigid frame throughout, the second differing from the first br having thin brick walls, and the third having no iron columns, but heavy brick walls to support the superstructure. The firsc type is best suited for factories where the heaviest jib and traveling cranes are required, the second is adapted for ma chine shops, but cannot be used where heavv cranes are needed, especially it the buildings be high and narrow. Traveling cranes should not be fonnd in the last type, and only the lightest jib cranes. Then fol lowed a classification of various strains, and the arrangement and details of members best suited to resist them. An elaborate and original analysis of wind strains, with explanatory diagrams, was submitted. The paper closed with tbe remark that the three most essential factors in the design and construction of mill buildings, in the order of their importance, are strengtb,simplicity and economy. The keen local interest in the subject was shown by the attention paid to the paper and the discussion1 thereon, which kept the meeting in session until a later hour than usual.
