It Will Come Up for Final Passage in Councils Kext Monday. CHIEF BROWN SAYS IT WILL PASS The Controller's Car Tar Bill Indefinitely Postponed. BTEEET IMPROYEIIENTS RECOMMENDED Br a unanimous vote, the Pnblio "Works Committee yesterday approved the ordi nance authorizing the ase of the Fifth ave nue market house as a Iliph School annex The ordinance will come up in Councils for nassige next Monday. It authorizes the JIavor to execute a lease for 99 years to the Ceitral Board of Education. Cnief Brown said last evening he had no doubt Councils will pass the bilL Bigelow js opposed to it, but he will hardly make a uiorous fight against it, leaving that for the military organizations who are anxious to get possession. The lease to the military prepared last spring is still in the hands of the Finance Committee, and nnless a spe cial meeting is called for the purpose be tween now and Monday is not likely to be completed. Chief Bigelow, however.claims he has authority to make a lease without any action by that committee. Property Holders Want the Schools. The people in the vicinity of the Market House are all anxious that the property shall be leased for a High School. Even tho ewbo at first favored the armory project bare now come to the conclusion that the property is better situated for school than military purposes and are anxious that it be so used. They argue, as do Chief Brown, the Mayor and others, that this property is too valuable to be thrown away, as it would practically be if given up for an armory; that much less valuable ground could be se cured for the military, which would answer their purpose ut as well, and that if this property is used as an armory the city will be at the expense of buying land for a High School, which may cost even more than this is worth. More Boom In the Central Board. The Central Board will soon have to be furnished with new quarters, their present ones on Market street being entirely too small. If the market house is leased to the board they can have all their offices there, and give the city a fine big hall for meetings and entertainments as well. To go to the Fast End for a site, as Chief Bigelow sug gests, the board would still have to rent offices, as their business is of such a charac ter they must be located in the business sec tion. Controller Morrow's ordinance taxing Te hicp including street cars, was laid over indefinitely, without discussion. Ordinances n ere approved for the grading and paving of Meadow and Keystone streets, Fox street and Forty-third street; sewers on Havs street, Berlin alley, Boquet street, De Sola street, Lawn and Locke streets, Chauney and Sheridan streets; opening Homewood avenue. HIS SUFFERING ENDED. John A. Mnsgrave Dies After a Long and Painful Illness. John A. Musgrave died yesterday at the Homeopathic Hospital of rheumatism after an illness covering a period of 12 years. Mr. Musgrave began life as a messencer on the Cleveland and PittsOurg Kailroad. By strict attention he arose step by step until he became the local agent in this city. In 1882, when all the Pennsylvania company's lines running northwest were consolidated, he was made cashier, which position he was compelled to resign shortly after, on ac count of ill health. He also took an active interest in politics, and served several termi in Councils. He was a member of the Fire Commission, and to his activity was due a great number of reforms in the department Mr. Musgrave was born in this citv in 1846, and married a daughter of the late Captain Beese. The funeral services will take place from Samson's Chapel, on Sixth avenue, to-morrow afternoon at 2 o'clock. FBEPABING FOB A PABADE. Democratic Clnhs Arrange for a Demon stration on the Southside. A meeting of the captains of the various Democratic marching clubs was held last night for the purpose of completing ar rangements for the Southside demonstra tion on Saturday night and for the triD to Wheeling on the first of next month. Tne meeting was presided over by Colonel F. L Eutledie, who announced the following officers for the display on Saturdav n'ght: Adjutant General. J M. Gufiy; Chief of Staff, Dr. C G Wilev, Marshal of Pittsburg division. Edward Z." Wainwright; Marshal of Allegheny division, A. A. Peyton; Mar shal of the Southside division, Joseph D. Jay. It was decided to form the parade in the citv proper and go to the Southside by wav of the Smithfield street bridge, thence to South Tenth street, to Sarah street to South Twenty-seventh street, to Carson street, to the South Tenth street bridge. Quite a number of the clubs reported that they would eo to Wheeling on the first, and Dr. C C. Wiley was chosen Marshal of the PittsDurg division for that day. COULD NOT MEET THE DEMAND. The Supply of Lacteal Fluid Was Short and Water Was Added. Meat and Milk Inspector Edwards made information before Magistrate Succop yes terday against milk dealers for selling adul terated milk. They are George Denzel, 2830 Edwards alley; A. Lanu, Jr., West Liberty Borough; Lquis Frank, Mt Wash ington; Parker W. Algeo and William Logman, of Allentown. All of the defend ants have been summoned for a hearing to day. Mr. Frank made a rather peculiar admis sion. He said he haJ put water in his milk the morning it was examined because his supply was a little shiirt, and he wanted to have enough to go around his customers. He did not make a practice of it AGBEED TO A CHANGE. Chief Brown Adopts a Suggestion From the ' Mayor on the Czarneckl Contract The Mayor and Chief Brown held a con ference yesterday, which resulted in a change in the five-year contract for remov ing dead animals in the city, so that if the city desires she can annnl the contract on three months' notice. Dr. Czarnecki, who was awarded the contract, will probably agree. If not, Councils will not approve the award. The reason for the change is the probability that a new garbage system for the whole city will be, adopted within the next year. Do sot go traveling without a bottle of Salvation Oil.

An Iron Wagon Closed the Slot on a Cable Line-A Car Is Wrecked Many Pas sengers Hurt-The Gripman Suffers Most. A peculiar accident, the first of its kind in the history of the Citizens' Traction line if not in the city, occurred yesterday tore noon on Penn avenue. A heavy iron wagon crossed Twenty-second street and turned on 'to the cable line. In doing so one side of the slot V the conduit was pushed against the other and completely olosed. When car No. 113 came along, as there was no room for the grip to slide through,it stopped with a jerk. The shock was so great that the front truck was demolished and all the glass in the window was shaken out. . There were abont a dozen passengers on the car. They were badly shaken up and all more or less injured. The broken glass was thrown among them which cut all severely about the race and bands, .trans: vinceni, the gripman suffered the most, and was severely Injured. His head was cut, his right arm disabled, and by being thrown against the brake suffered severe injuries. Conductor Irwin and Thomas A. Rose, who were standing on the rear platform, were thrown against the car and badly shaken up. The passengers to suffer the worst were: Miss Marv Seeley, Andrew Miller, "V. A. Burger," William Layton and William Sutton. They were bruised and cut by the broken glass. Excitement ran high and the street was blocked by the crowd attracted to the place. Travel was blockaded for a time. The car was taken to the shed by No. 211 when the broken truck grip and brake were repaired. A force of men at once went to nork to repair the damage to the rail. It was found that two of the rods which held the slot rails apart had been broken. A force of men bad been on 'the line during morning opening the rails, so as to allow the grip to pass through and had ust passed this point before the accident The car was coineatthe rate of six miles an hour, and the gripman said last night that the pas sengers had made a miraculous escape. DRUGGED TO DEATH. Minnie XJppencott, While Suffering, Takes Enough. Chloroform Vo Kill Several People It Was Not Suicide Her Body Taken to Ber Home at Camden. Mrs. Minnie Lippencott yesterday died from the results of an overdose of chloro form taken last Tnesday. She boarded at No. 11 Scott street She has been suffering from a constitntlonal disease. At times she would grow greatly discouraged. Last Tuesday night she attended the the ater and after going home became hysterical. Her friends did all they could for her and finally she dropped off into a heavy sleep. The next morning she did not awake. Her heavy breathing alarmed the other in mates and a physician was called in who, after a great deal of work, aroused ber. It wa found she had taken an overdose of the drug to make her sleep and kill the pain. On Wednesday she was consoious but her nerves had been paralyzed by the dose and she was unable to move. She lingered all day in that condition and ditd .at midnight The proprietress of the house had feared fatal results and telegraphed to Camden to the relatives. A sister of the deceased arrived yesterday and last night started home with the remains. Mrs. Lippencott hnd been in this city only two months. Her maiden name was Minnie Downs, and her family in Camden are respectable folks. She had a son 7 vears oid, who has been living with her sister at Camden. She was a person of con siderable beauty and agreeable disposition. At first it was reported as a case of suicide, but the Coroner, after a careful in vestigation, decided to the contrary. It was found that to relieve the pain to which she was subject the woman bad used so much of a chloroform preparation that ber system had become accustomed to it and she could take enough to kill several people without visible effect The Coroner thinks she overestimated her ability to stand the drug. The inquest will ba concluded to day. . A NEW TBANSCONIINENIAL LIEE. It Will Be a Strong Competitor of the Cana dian Pacific Eallroad. Chicago,. Oct 27.

And His Wife Didn't Come. Joseph Hope was arrested yesterday on a warrant sworn out before Alderman War ner by Peter Skarapski, charging him with false pretense. Hope boarded with Skar apski on Twenty-fourth street, and worked himself into his good graces so thoroughly J that Skarapski advanced him 550 to pur- chase a ticket for bis wife to come over from Poland. Hope, instead of buying the ticket, it is alleged, used the money for other purposes.

TWO BIDDERS PRESENT NO BONDS. C. A. Balph and the Economite Society's Proposals Are Regular. THE CONTRACT IS KOT YET AWARDED Only two proper proposals were presented yesterday for the erection of the new Poor Farm buildings. One was from the Econo mite Society, as The Dispatch exclusively announced yesterday, and the other from C. A. Balph, of this city. J. P. Leach and W. F. McCarthy each presented bids, but their papers were unaccompanied by bonds, as required by the advertisement These were ruled out by Chief Elliot and City At torney Moreland, who conducted the open ing of the bids. Both were higher than the regular bidders. The specifications for the work were classified into four separate propositions. The Economite Society's bid was made in the name of B. F. Crow. Trustees Duss and Henrioi were the bondsmen for the $500,000 guarantee required. They bid $537,892 on the No. 1 specifications, $533, 537 on No. 2, H87.467 on No. 3 and $370, 741 on No. 4. G A. Balph's bid was f 502, 000 on No. 1, J6.500 off that figure for No..2, 534,000 off for No. 3 and 5108,400 off for No. 4. A local trust company is on Balph's bond for 5500,000. It will be seen Balph is considerably below the Economltes on the first three pecifications, but they are the lowest on the fourth. The second specification diners from the first in that the buildings are smaller in every respect, the rooms being 6 inches smaller each way. Cutting Down the, Cost The third specification provides for 9-inch walls instead of 13-inch as under the first, certain of the buildings are smaller, the foundations lighter and a number of other points are given where a saving can be made. Specification No. 4 is the same as No. 2, except that steam heating and elec tric lighting apparatus are not included. , Chief Elliot announced that he would take a day or two to have the bids tabulated and the bonds examined before letting the contract He said he was sorry there were not more bidders. The figures were higher than he expected, and before closing a con tract he will scale down in several features to reduce the cost. Some time ago he stated that the total improvement of tne new farm would cost about 5425,000. If he sticks to this the buildings will cost less than 5400, 000, as there are a number of other improve ments to' be made. Trustee Duss, of the -Economite Society, was among the audience of bidders and spectators who filled tho room while the proposals were being read. He had no comments to make on the figures. "If we get this contract," said he, "we will be able to carry it out with satisfaction to the city. Our society is in a position to do this kind of work and we propose to fol low it up as stated by The Dispatch this morning. We have a'big tract of timber land and two good sawmills in Warren countv. a planing mill, a stone quarry. a brickyard and a good stoct of bricks on hand at Economy. Willing; to Use Their Advantages. "We have also, right along the railroad at Economy, a bank of the finest quality of sand to be fonnd in this part ot the State. Why should we not endeavor to make use of all these advantages?" ' "Would you employ the men of your so ciety on the work?" "To a large extent, yea We have 200 men whom we could use, though, unless compelled to by a strike or the ridiculously short time in which this work is to be done, we would only employ a portion of them. It will be almost a work of magio to put up these buildings within the specified time." "Do you intend to follow np this kind ot work?" "Certainly. We are developing a spirit of improvement at Economy. It we get this contract we will not seek any more un til it has been completed. If we can't get it we will look around for others at once. We will not, of course, go after a contract for stone buildings suoli as the Carnegie library is to be, but wherever there U a brick and frame structure where we can con veniently use the materials at our disposal we will go after the work. "The time was when the people for many miles around our community, who bad an old horse or a cow or anything else that had served its usefulness, would take it to Economy and sell it Things have changed now. Yon can't impose on the Economltes with such old baits now. We want the best We have the money to pay for the best, and we intend to have it, even six toed chickens, if we like them."

Was a Good Friend of Charles Bprlggs, the Dead .Elevator Boy. WILL AEK FOR BAIL AFTER THE TEEDICT Charles Minshall came to this city last night in company with Chief of Police Cleary, of Monongahela City. A telegram from Brownsville yesterday morning noti fied Superintendent O'Mara that Minshall was at Monongahela City, and a detective was sent up for him, but he had started for Pittsburg'before the detective's arrival. Minshall is the commercial traveler who, by prematurely starting an elevator at the Hotel Anderson last Saturday, accidentally caused the death of the elevator boy, Charles Spriggs, or DeCourey, as he was better known. On Minshall's arrival in the city he was met by a representative of a leading wholesale grocery firm, who offered to go on his bond until the inquest is fin ished. The offer was made to Coroner MoDowell, but be stated it was im possible for him to accept bail under the circumstances. The Cor oner notified Superintendent O'Mara that he must produce Minshall at the inquest, whicb at the latter's request has been changed from to-morrow to this morning at 11 o'clock. This meant that the prisoner must be locked up at Central station. "He was much affected when he heard it, offering to pay the expense of an officer to guard him at a hotel if permitted. Superintendent O'Mara informed him it could not be done, but agreed to place him in a comfortable room at the station in stead of an ordinary celL Minshall is greatly worried about the death of Spriggs. He is actually a jolly, good-natnred man, but is now cast down, and has little to say except in explanation of the accident "No one living regrets this so much as l, ne said last night "1 should not nave gone away, but I was led to believe poor Charley would recover. When I left I expected to return to-morrow anyhow, to see how be was and do what I could for him. I have been a frequent guest at the Anderson for years, and I knew the boy well. We alVvays joked and chaffed each other and were the best of friends. On Saturday wben I stepped on' the elevator be was outside on the floor, but started in after me. When I got in, sup posing he was Inside, I pulled the rope and. started ine car. juy nacK was turned to him and I did not know my mistake until I heard him scream. The rest yon know. I don't know what I can do." The inquest was begun yesterday. Min shall will be given an opportunity to testify to-day and that will close the case. It is considered certain the jury will return a verdict of involuntary manslaughter. An application for bail will be made'as soon as a verdict is rendered. Stunned by the Collision. Shortly after 5 o'clock yesterday evening car No. 116 of the Pleasant Valley line struck Stevenson Modelsbip, an 8-year-old newsboy whose home is on Carlstreet,at the corner of Ohio and Sandusky streets, Alle gheny, and stunned him so' badly that he did not recover consciousness for several hours.
