BIG MASS 2IEETIXG OUT PEXN ATENUE
The campaign in Allegheny county was
practically closed last night. To-day and
to-night will be devoted to demonstrations
by both parties and Monday will be con
sumed in distributing tiqkets and election
papers to the various polling places through
out the county. Under the law the ballots
must be distributed to-day and Monday.
The Commissioners yesterday completed ar
rangements tof have the ballots and elec
tion papers delivered to the respective vot
ing places. One-half of the work will be
delivered to-day. The cost of the work
will approximate $1,000. and will be done
in strict accordance with the law. Many of
the ballots and papers were shipped last
nicht and will be delivered this morning.
The work at the party headquarters was
being wound up at midnicht. The final
appeals were mailed to the voters and bush
els of literature, letters and instructions
were carted to the postofllce. Packages
were wrapped and made ready for the va
rious ward workers, and messages were sent
ordering the faithful to report early this
morning to take the stuff" away and br this
evening the headquarters will be abandoned
for the campaign.
Chairman Gripp and Secretary Miller
spent last night in Homestead where they
were in consultation with the workers
there. They did not return to Pittsburg
until after midnight.
"To all intents and purposes our fight is
concluded," Judge Gripo sain alter his re
turn to the citv. "We want the boyn to
call to-day and get what we have prepared
for them, and then we will shut up shop.
AVe will carrv Allegheny county bv the
usnal Republican majority," the confident
chairman went on. "We will not lose a
man in our district. "We will cive Harri
son anywhere from 20.000 to 22,000 majority.
Our Legislative. Senatorial and -Consress-ional
tickets will he elected beyond all
question."
Chairman Erennen refused to make any
prediction regarding the result in Alle
gheny county. He said his work was about
completed. "We nill not carry Allegheny
county." he said, "but we will elect a Con
gressman and one Senator if not two. We
will greatly reduce the Republican major
ity in Allegheny county, and that's about
all I care to say on the subject."
HE TALKED TAEIIT.
Assistant Tostmaster Edwartls Kntertains
the Thirteenth Ward Republic-ins.
The Republicans held an enthusiastic
meeting in the open air last evening on
"Wylie avenue, .near Junilla street, Thir
teenth ward. A large number were present
The speakers' stand was gaily decorated
with bunting and lanters. Sasnel Mc
Cutcheon acted as chairman of the meeting.
Alter a few remarks eulosistlc ot the Re
publican party, he introduced A. J. Ed
wards, Assistant Postmaster of Pittsburg.
Mr. Edwards gave an able exposition of
the tariff question, showing what benefits,
hava accrued to the whole country under
the McKinlev bill. He showed that the
protective tariff" had nothing to do with the
recent labor troubles, asserting that the
question of wages was one regulated by
supply and demand. He also cited the
labor troubles in the Democratic State of
Tennessee, in which many workincmen
were shot down, which were the results ot
the actions of Democratic State officials in
putting convicts at work to fill honest
workingmen's positions. Mr. Edwards
also discussed the money question, ridi
culing the "wildcat money proposed by
the Democracy.
P. A. JOHNS EXPLAINS.
He Says the Charges Made Ajralnst Him Are
Unrounded and Slallcloos.
The charge that Peter A. Johns, Deputy
Collector rf Internal Revenue for Fayette
county, appropriated to his personal use
money paid him as an official of the United
States is being investigated by Acting In
ternal Revenue Collector Mitchell. Mr.
Johns was called to Pittsburg yesterday
and the records of all the cases in his dis
trict were carefully examined by the acting
collector and an expert irom Washington.
They were pronounced to be correct and
satisfactory, but the inquiry will be con
tinued until the acting collector is entirely
satisfied.
Mr. Johns is the Republican candidate
for Sheriff' ot Fayette county. He had a
bitter fight tor the nomination, and he al
leges that the charges made against him are
prompted by an enemy.
"It is an ugly case they are endeavoring
to make out against me," Mr. Johns said
yesterday, "but the charges will amount to
nothing. I have satisfied the Collector that
my accounts are correct and I am satisfied
the public will not be misled by malicious
charges."
CUTTIKO IK HEW JEBSEY,
Republicans Said to Be Sacrificing Harrison
lor the Governorship.
A good many local Republicans have
been betting quietly that Hew Jersey
would go for Harrison. They base their
faith on figures furnished by the red
beaded and hopeful Tom Cooper. Several
days ago a prominent Republican wrote to
a Democratio friend in Camden for infor
mation. The Democrat replied that Cleve
land would have 7,030 in the State, and the
Democratio candidate tor Governor 5,000.
He claims that last Saturday the Repub
lican managers issued orders to cut the
Presidestal ticket with the intention of
electing Kean lor Governor.
Homestead Republicans Meet.
A Republican meeting at Homestead last
night was attended by about 200 people.
Many of those present were among the
locked-out men and several members of
the Advisory Board attended. Chairman
Gripp, Secretary Miller and several ot the
local Republicans made speeches. D. R.
McClure presided and D. F. Hill acted as
secretary. The local speakers promised
that Homestead will give its regular Re
publican vote.
Providing for Supervisors.
Marshal Harrah and Chief Supervisor of
Elections Gamble will remain in their
offices this evening from 7 to 10 o'clock to
swear in and give instructions to super
visors and special deputy marshals for
lections. This is to avoid causing men to
lose time from their work.
Southslde Polling Places.
Th booths ia the polling places for the
Twenty-sixth and Twenty-seventh wards
Wf re completed yesterday, and to-day wil
be opened to teach the people in the use of
the new ballots from this time until elec
tion. The Twenty-aixth ward polling place
is on Seventeenth and Sarah streets and the
Twenty-seventh ward is at the head of Fif
teenth street.
NO TRICKS THIS YEAR.
Democrats Trying to Capture West Virginia
With a Series of Barbecues Voters to
Be Taken From Homo About Election
Time.
Assistant Postmaster A. J. Edwards re
turned from West Alexander yesterday,
where he was one of the orators at a day
light Republican meeting. It is close to
the West Virginia line and the people came
across the border in squads. Mr. Edwards
says there is no doubt about the State going
Republican. Secretary Elkius has been at
headquarters in Wheeling for several days
and will remain until Tuesdav.
Postmaster Cowden, of "Wheeling, told
Mr. Edwards of a shrewd Democratic trick
to capture the State that had been un
earthed. A prominent leader unfolded the
plan in a letter to the State Committee,
which fell into the hands of the Republi
cans. He suggested holding a number of
barbecues close to the election and giving
the colored people a free ride for at least 40
miles lrom home. "You know," continued
the writer, "that something always happens
to excursion trains, the engine breaks
down, and the delays are numerous. The
people could easilv be held on plausible
pretexts until it would be too late for them
to vote."
Steve Elkins saw at once it would be an
easy scheme to work, and immediately
steps were taken to offset the Democrats.
Mr. Coirden thinks it will be difficult to
hoodwink the colored votera in "West Vir
ginia this year. A rattling campaign has
been waged. Speakers have been sent out
into the small settlements in wagons, ac
companied by colored fellows playing gui
tars and banjos. The musicians would sing
and play and in a short time would have a
crowd around the wagon. Then a short
speech would be made, and the journey to
the uext town would be resumed. This
style of campaigning has been very eflec
tive in the sparsely settled regions. Mr.
Edwards was assured that the Lower
House will be Republican, but the Senate
is going Democratic Davis will be elected
Governor.

Miles Humphries Talks Tariff to

A Republican mass meeting was held in
Turner Hall, corner Forty-sixth and But
ler streets, last evening. The building
was crowded. Dr. J. J. Covert presided.
Miles H. Humphries discussed the tariff"
and John S. Laiubil talked on the financial
question. Mr. Humphries said he knew of
no country where the employe stands a bet
ter chance of becoming an employer than in
America. Protection means defense. Free

ments. Will Itcceive Returns.

BAN AWAY FEOM HEB FATHER.
The Piteous Story Told by a Girl "Who
Wanted to Go West.
Yesterday afternoon Detective Cook, of
the Pittsburg and Lake Erie Railroad, ar
rested a girl about 13 years of age who was
trying to get past the gate to the cars.
When arrested she began to cry piteously
and begged to be released. She was poorly
clad, and shivering with the cold. Upon
being questioned she said that her name
was Abbie Jones, and she was trying to get
to Denver to her uncle, whose name was
John Lester. Her father is Jesse Jones, a
carpenter in the employ of the Allegheny
Valley Railroad at Milltown. She said he
beat and abused her so badly that she had
decided to run away, and lelt yesterday
morning.
Detective Cook took the girl to Secre
tary Dorente, of the Anti-Cruelty Society,
who placed her in the home of a family on
Ninth street, and will investigate her case
and institute suit if the facts warrant it

A General Tear Up.
That's the state in which our shoe depart
ment is at present. A part ot the temporary
partitions, put up in lieu of the walls torn
out, has Just been removed, and the space
heretofoie devoted to ladles' shoes has been
scooped and fenced in by the contractor for
the purpose of making lurther alterations.
This necessitates the moving of the ladles'
sboe parlor to the children's shoe depart
ment and the latter's removal to the slipper
department. We are, as you see, on the con
tinuous move, crowded for space on all
sides, and being more and more encroached
upon by the contractor. Under the circum
stances our present forced sacrifice sale of
shoes Is not to be wondered at. lion's,
women's and cblldi en's shoes and slippers,
all kinds and styles, are now being closed
out as rapidly as greatly reduced prices will
sell them. In many Instances first-lass
shoes are marked at about r.alf regular
prices and less, .no person in need oi foot
wear should miss this great chance.

WAITING FOR WATER.
Several Million Bushels of Coal
Beady for Shipment South.
SOME MINERS RETURN TO WORK.
Enilders' Exchange discussing the Eight
Hour Movement
DISCUSSING TAB FINISHERS' UNI0X
The river coal operators attended a meet
ing of the. Coal Exchange yesterday almost
in a body. The near approach of the sea
son when active work will be beguu in the
coal trade has excited much iuterest along
the river, and with water it is probable that
a larce amount of coal would be floated to
the Southern markets. It is estimated that
there are between 5,000,000 and 8,000,000
bushels of coal ready to be sent out on the
first rise.
A larger amount of business was trans
acted at yesterday's meeting than at any
meeting 'held for some time. Secretary
Tilly was instructed to open a correspond
ence with Secretary Elkins, of the War
Department, urging that the steamer
Golden City, which was sunk in the rher
channel eight miles below Memphis, near
the head of President's Island, about ten
years ago, be cleared away as it is a great
hindrance to navigation, and causes the
boats it h tows of coal much trouble in
making the down trip.
A Hard Rock to Split On.
Another obstruction wanted to be re
moved is the Konconnali rock, near the
mouth ot the Connah creek and in the chute
of President's Island. This rock covers a
quarter of an acre, and takes one day for a
towboat to get around it. The War De
partment will also be asked to remove a
pile of logs in the chute of Island No. 40,
about 12 miles above Memphis. The Coal
Exchange has taken these moves, because
its boats are chiefly concerned in navigating
this part of the river in taking coal to the
Southern markets.
The coal strike in the Monongahela Valley
was taken up and reports from the mines
heard. Prospects for an early resumption
are brighter than at any time since the
strike began. Many ot the mines in the
upper pools were reported to be in partial
operation at the reduced rates. None of
the mines are working many men. but
enough have returned to indicate a willing
ness on the part ot the miners to return to
work in a short time.
One operator alter the meetinsr in com
menting on the outlook said: "I consider
that before the end of next week, the strike
will have been broken and all the mines
will be in operation at the reduced rates.
"Will Go Back After Election.
"We have enough information to warrant
us in saying that after the election themen
will immediately return to work. I am
saying this because the men who have been
among the miners know that they are
simply staying out until after next Tuesday,
and expect to return when that day is over.
It will make no difference which party
wins. There are about 8,000 mirsrs affected
by the present strike. This will give some
idea of the magnitude of the coal interests
along the river. "Why, I know of men
who are now walking three miles to work
in mines operated by the railroad operators
at the same rate we ask. The reduced rates
simply put us on a par with the railroads,
and we can treat with customers on the
Bame basis."
The rains of the past few days have
caused the river to rise, and many of the
boats were getting ready to leave on the
shortest possible notice. A number of
cress went down the river yesterday to
bring in their boats that haveb'een stranded
below Davis Island Dam. The officers of
the "Wheeling Packet line said yesterday
they expected to have their boats running
next week, as the present stage of water was
high enough to allow their boats to be run.
CAN MAKE A GOOD FIGHT YET.
Secretary Kllgallon Says tho Finishers'
Union "Will Not Affect the Amalgamated
Association Very Much A Few Mem
bers Canslng the Trouble The Order
Still Strong.
Secretary Kilgallon, of the Amalgamated
Association, in discussing the probable ef
fect the seceding of the finishers would
have upon the old association, yesterday,
said: "I do not'think the finishers' union
will ever be a reality. In my opinion a few
disgruntled finishers are not satisfied with
the present scale and agreement for
the years work and now want
to cause all the trouble tbey can. From
what I can learn there are hardly more
than a couple of dozen in all, and when
they have excited a great deal of discussion
and contention will simply let the new
move fall through. The Amalgamated As
sociation feels that the loyalty of its mem
bers will keep them from leaving, and does
not fear any great trouble from the present
movement. We shall not make any great
effort to influence our members one way or
the other, depending upon their fidelity to
aid labor by supporting one labor organiza
tion rather than two.
"We have been uniformly kindly re
ceived by the manufacturers in the past,
and expect to receive the same recognition
in the future. At times, it is true,
things did not run very smoothlv,
but They have come out all right in the end.
At present I fear no trouble from the
Pittsburg iron manufacturers uniting to
oppose the Amalgamated Association. The
only way we can be injured is by circulating
false reports about the organization and we
will take care to see that these are reputed.
In fact this is the only way we will deign
w tcuuguizv uuy bucu a union us mat con
templated by the, finishers.
"lean say that" never in the history of
the Amalgamated Association has it-been
stronger either numerically or otherwise.
It was accredited at one time as having
more members than now, hut many of them
were not permanent and no dependence
could be placed in them. The order should
be stronger than it is, but for real close,
determined and united effort, the present
status of the Amalgamated Association is
better than ever and is determined to not
only make a determined fight, but to retain
its old members."
EIGHT HOTJES F0S A DAY'S WOBK.
Resolutions Introduced Into the Builders'
Exchange and Warmly Discussed.
A set oi resolutions, presented at the
November meeting of the Builders' Ex
change, but not passed, required that eight
hours be considered as a day's work, and
that the system oi hourly compensation be
adopted by the Exchange. The resolutions
were warmly discussed, and many
of the members were in favor of
adopting them. The recent law, making
eight hours a day's work, has induced
the Exchange to take action on this ques
tion. The resolutions will be taken up
again at the December meeting and will
likely be passed. They are now in the
hand's of a committee. Before action is taken
on the question, however, the members of
the Exchange will submit the question to
their workmen and upon their decision will
rest the acceptance or rejection of the reso
lutions by the Exchange. The workmen
mostlv interested are plasterers, painters,
bricklayers, tinners, roofers, plumbers, tile
layers and all trades connected with the
builders' trades. The chief point of diffi
culty will be whether workmen will be
willing to accept the eight-hour plan unless
they are allowed the same rates as tbey are
getting for nine hour's labor..
Another matter taken up by the Exchange
was the. holding of a convention of all
branch associations of the' builders' lnter-
ests in the two cities and vicinity. The
purpose of the convention would be to do
away with certain things that are now
causing much trouble to the various
branches of work. One is likely to inter
fere with the harmonious working on an
other branch, and this causes delay to both.
One of the greatest drawbacks to the busi
ness at present is the power put into the
hands of the chief contractor. As it is, he
has everything in his powr, and the sub
contractors are virtually ot his mercy. The
time lor the convention has not yet been
set, but it is thought it will be held soon
after February L This would allow time
to get ready for the opening of the year's
business in the spring.
"Window Glass Going Up.
H. A. Newkirk, a Chicago window glass
agent, put up at the Duquesne yesterday.
He says that the association met at Colum
bus on Friday and reaffirmed prices. The
trade is in excellent condition and the
manufacturers are surprised. For once in
a long time the supply is not equal to the
demand. The rates have been advanced
from 80 with 20 per cent off to 80 with 15. off.
If the trade continues good, prices will no
doubt be pushed up a little more.
Inspected the Salt Works.
President Armstrong and the directors of
the Katrona Salt Company made the an
nual inspection of the works yesterday.
The party occupied a private car, and came
over from Philadelphia in the morning.
Mr. Armstrong says everything was satis
factory. There were besides Mr. Armstrong,
Austin W. Purvis.Secretarv and Treasurer;
K. D. Benson, J. T. Lee, F. P. Steele, T.
W. Spark, J. W. McAllister, J. S. Jenks
and Joseph B. F. Duncan.
WILL OPPOSE THE ISSUE,
Sixth Ward Feoplo "Will Try to Defeat tho
Allegheny Bond Schomo.
Another meeting was held in the Sixth
ward school house, Allegheny, last night
by those who are opposed to the bond issue.
Long resolutions denouncing the manner in
which their opponents took charge of the
meeting last Monday night were passed.
The gentlemen present .expressed them
selves B3 against the issue from now on.
They said they had been favorable to it
until they saw how the canvass for it was
being made. Their resolution says Coun
cils have not adopted anv defined plan for
spending the money, and until a better
quality of Councilmen is seenred they think
it wise to oppose the expenditure ot such a
large sum of money.
A BIO SIGHT'S WOBK.
East End Burglars Get Away "With 81,000
"Worth of Property.
Three residences in the East End were
burglarized yesterday morning and $1,000
worth of property stolen. The places vis
ited were E. A. "Weart's, 5531 Ellsworth
avenue, Philip Stevens, Torren's station,
and William O. Lowry, 5743 Center ave
nue. The three houses were gone through, and
silverware and clothing taken from each
one. The police heard of the case early in
the morning, and a number of officers were
sent out. Before daylight four men were dis
covered at the Kegley avenue bridge. They
were surprised and all but one arrested.
The man who escaped was shot at several
times but missed. The police think they
have the right men.
E. P. J0NE3 DEAD.

known members of the Allegheny county

HE; PADS THE LIST.
Critchlow to He the First Home
steader Tried for Murder.
THE CASE COMES DP NOVEMBER 16.
Jack Clifford Is on the Slate for the Fol
lowing llondaj.
HUGH O'DONNELIS TKIAL MAT BE NEXT
Wednesday, November 16, the first of the
famous Homestead cases will be taken up
in the Allegheny County Criminal Court.
Sylvester Critchlow will then be put on
trial for the murder of T. J. Connors, a
Pinkerton detective. On the following
Monday Jack Clifford will stand trial on the
same indictment After that none of the
other cases have been arranged for, but the
Homestead calendar will be cleared as rap
idly as possible.
"The Homesteaders now under arrest,"
said District Attorney Burleigh yesterday,
"are in most cases charged with four offenses
murder, treason, aggravated riot and con
spiracy. To my mind the murder charges
are the most important and so should be
tried first. If there was murder committed
at Homestead on July 6, we want to
know it
Imprisoned Men to Be Tried First.
"I also think it rieht that those confined
in jail should be tried first For this reason
Critchlow was chosen. After Jack Clifford
there may be another case taken
up at once. Hugh O'Donnell is
also in jail and he may be
the third man, as it may be that after trying
these two cases the manner of procedure
may be changed. Jury trials are peculiar
things, and it is hard to tell what may hap
pen. Then we have other cases of consider
able importance which may have to be tried
at once. Altogether there are 30 or 40 of
the Homestead murder cases, and no man
could stand the worry that would be experi

No Time Will Be "Wasted.
"Nothing, however, but actual necessities
will be allowed to interfere with the cases.
At the 1st of December we will have to
clean the jail out, and this will take con
siderable time. The cases against the Car
negie officials will come right in along with
the others.
"I am to have full charge of the prosecu
tion in every one of these cases. I hear
continually that the legal talent of the
land, paid by the Carnegie Steel Company,
will fight these cases. I will be in abso
lute charge of the prosecution and subject
to the dictates of no one. If able lawyers,
with good standing .at the Allegheny conn ty
bar, offer to assist me in either the anti
Frick or Frick cases, I will accept their
services. They must understand, however,
that I am in charge, and not one case will
be heard unless I am present"

A General Tear Dp.
That's the state in which our Bhoa depart
ment is at present. Apart of the temporary
partitions, put up in lieu of the walls torn
out, have just been removed and the space
heretofore devoted to ladies' shoes has been
scooped and fenced In by the contractor for
the purpose of making further alterations.
This necessitated the moving of the ladies'
shoe parlor to the children's sboe depart
ment and the latter's removed to the slipper
department. We are, as you see, on the con
tinuous move, crowded for space on all
sides, and being more and more encroached
upon by the contractor TJndor these cir
cumstances our present forced sacrifice sale
ofshoesisnot to be wondered at. Men's,
women's and childi en's shoes and slippers,
all kinds and styles, are now belli;; closed
out as rapidly as greatly reduced prices will
sell them. In many instances first-class shoes
are marked at about half regular prices and
less. Nopernonin need of footwear should

How to Make One Pair of Stockings Wear as
Long as Five. '
The advent of our "STANDARD KNEE PROTECTORS" will be ap
preciated by parents. That something of the kind is needed has-long been
admitted, and there have been many attempts to fill this want, but all made
hitherto have been so clumsy and unsightly that their use has been very
limited. THESE KNEE PROTECTORS are made of strong and durable
Jersey Cloth or Leather; are adjusted to the knee in a simple manner, and
fit so perfectly that the above objection to their use is entirely obviated.
