James McCormick, of 170 Second avenue, had an exciting encounter with a young man named Gray. He was awakened about 30 o'clock at night by Gray ringing his door bell. He asked the man what he wanted, and the reply showed that he had mistaken the character of the house. After explain ing this to him he shut the door and went to bed. A short time after McCormick was again awakened, and, arming himself with a broom, drove the young man away with manv blows. Again he was aroused by such a violent noise that he went to the door armed with a cane, but before he vould use it Gray drew a revolver and shot twice, but missed. McCormick ran into the house, and Officer Welsh came up and placed Gray under arrest. As no one ap peared against him in the morning he was fined 510 and costs or 30 days to the work house.

THE TIN HOKN GETS IX ITS LAST TOOT 'The Coon Is Extinct, the Booster Bules the BoostI" So ran the legend upon one of the banners in the Democratic ratifica tion parade last night, and it did look amidst the wonderful crowds which once more surged down upon the lower part of the city as if the Democratic bird was strictly n it There were roosters everywhere; on men and boys' hats in paper, on poles in tin, of gigantic size with wings of painted canvas, in wagons and borne aloft by marching men. The name of the President-elect was on everyone's lips. The musical rhyme, born at the Chicago con vention: "Grover! Groverl Four years more ot Grover; Out you go. In we go; now we'll be in clover." floated far and wide, chanted by marchers and spectators on the curb. Fifth avenue became impassable again, and if anything the crowds were larger sthan on the Satur day previous, when the Bepublicans had their farewell jubilation, or on Tuesday when the town turned out to hear the news of the election. It was a far more jubilant crowd, too; cheers were given on the slight est provocation, and considering the politi cal complexion of the majority it is fair to to conclude that the Bepublicans joined heartily in the jollification. There was a generous spirit abroad, and some other spirits found a ready sale, yet there was lit tle disorder. Although few Bepublicans accepted to parade with their conquerors, ttft feeling that prompted the Amerious Club to boom red fire at their rooms on The Bird of Democracy. Smithfield street, whenever a Democratic club went by on its way to the rendezvous on Water street, seemingly actuated all tbe members of the vanquished party who were abroad. It was a difficult parade to get started, there were so many unorganized Democrats on hand, mounted and in every description of vehicle from six-b'orse wagons to wheel barrows, including an enormous number of handsome livery rigs. But Chief Marshal Butledge and his big staff of splendidly mounted aids worked hard and evoked order out of chaos before the City Hall clock announced 9 o'clock above the terrific roar of humanity with and without tin horns. Once started the parade moved along in capital order, and at a pace which made the marchers a precious deal warmer than the tens ot thousands who stood and cheered and shivered while the former passed. The rain which had threatened all day fortu nately held off, and the evening, while raw and chilly, was dry and seasonable. The Jolliest Parade of tbe Season. What a procession of jolly mortals it wasl Not a glum face in all the line. Smiles everywhere, cheers from everybody, red fire and Boman candles every few yards, enough bands to keep the boys in step, and plenty of enthusiasm in the dens mob which filled the streets TM! CK53fRV OslflPS One of the Alany Novelties. along the entire route. There were more mounted men in line than in any parade during the late campaign. Gray beards wpre plentiful among the cavaliers. It was plain that the old stand-bvs of De mocracy deemed it their duty to risk rheumatism and take their fling with the boys. The parade may have contained 7.000 men, possibly more, but it was hard to keep i count ot them, so many were massed in ponderous wagons and packed into all sorts of things on wheels. It took exactly one hour and five minutes for the parade to pass into Diamond street from Grant As the Bandall Club in the van with Mar shall Butledge and his staff reached the Diamond street corner at 9:05 it will be seen that tbe huge assemblage of spectators on Fifth avenue who gathered there soon alter 7 o'clock had a long wait In fact, they saw nothing of the paraders, except in scraDS as the clubs marched to the start ing point, till close upon 10:30. The Voters TTero Oat, Not tho Boys. The clubs in line looked a trifle battle stained, but they marched like veterans. The County Democracy and the Bandall Club were out in the greatest force. There were not so many boys among the marchers, but still a good sprinkling of cadets in fancy uniforms. The banners and transparencies naturally $ I fir i'. i i I i i I t IliilPSS harmonized with the triumphant joy ot the men who carried them. With the banner which bore the exultant whoop quoted above were borne by one of the clubs two others which announced that "Stevenson Contributes Illinois" and "We "Want a Tariff for Bevenue Only." The Jerry Doherty Club earned a big transparency on which was illuminated this conundrum and its answer: "What Caused It? The McKinley Bill, the Force Bill, the Little Bill and Several Other Bills!" .Another banner read: "Demooracy Is Not Aristocracy." On a tombstone of fiaper was inscribed: "Died the Bepub ican Party November 8, 1892." A more vicious 'dig was administered in the legend of another transparency! "Carnegie's Boodle Didn't Count." On the affirmative side a placard that followed de clared: "Cleveland is the Greatest States man in the United States." The J. C O'Donnell Club offered: "A reward of 5500 for any man whose wages were raised by the McKinley bill." The First Ward Democratic Club, armed with brooms One of the Victorious Bannen. marched under a banner on which were the words: "Clean SweepI" Near the end of the procession a sarcastic bulletin cropped out in this form: "Thanks! Hat is Left." with a picture of President Harrison contemplating an immense grand father's hat Tbe emblems were as eloquent as the ban ners. Boosters had tbe call. One was in habited by a good big boy, who flapped his wings and crowed. Another bird as big as an elephant, with a movable beak whioh never was closed, required four men to carry it. There were dead coons and coons in cages and pictures of Fort Frick. Hardly a ciub or a carriage but had its full supply of red fire, and everywhere pjong the route the crimson light burst frrpi windows and door wavs and along the curb. There were a few individuals of the defeated party, but no resular republican clubs swelled the tri umph. Tho Salt River Delegates. A small band of men calling themselves the Salt Biver Club from Limerick, or the Goodby Girls, paraded behind two fifes and a drum, and a banner proclaimed that "Limeriok will not have Pinkertons." The noise made by the triumphant Dem ocracy cannot be described. It was enorm ous, variegated and incessant. Tbe march ers never stopped shouting for an instant; The tin horns were chiefly in the crowds ot spectators, and they were blown with a vigor that seemed to indicate that tbe blowers knew that their last opportunity to torture a community had come, and they meant to put -all their lungs and lips into a final effort The racket did not subside till long after midnight DEMOCRATS IN LINE. Their Parade in Honor of President-Elect Cleveland Js Heartily Received and Pronounced a Success by the People of Pittsburg. The procession was heartily received by the populace and was apparently very suc cessful regarding the display and the num ber of men in line. It was about 8 o'clock when the column began moving and it took exactly one hour to pass a given point The route was extensive and it was nearly 11 o'clock when the platoon of police lead ing the parade reached Smithfield street coming down Fifth avenue.

BREAKING THE STRIKE Local Operatorsv Importing Colored Men to Help Them Win. THE FIRST INVOICE A FAILURE, Three of Them Turn Up in Pittsburg- and Telia Strange Storj. STRIKERS SCARE THEil BY THREATS The river coal operators are trying to break their strike. Three colored men ap plied at the Department of Charities yester day for transportation to Lynchburg, Va. They were Jacob White, John Thomas and Henry Anderson. White was the spokesman for tbe party and told a story purporting to explain how the river coal operators intend to break tbe strike. "We live in Lynchburg," said White, "and last Thursday 84 men, some with their wives and children, were brought to Elkhorn. It is a little town on the Mc Keesport 'and Bellevernon Bailroad, 22 miles from Pittsburg. We were employed in Lynchburg by Bobert Day, Jr., of 174 Webster avenue, Pittsburg. Day painted things to us in a very bright manner. He said we would get 3 cents a bushel for mining coal. I asked him whether there was any trouble at Elk horn and he said that there was not We were to work for W. H. Brown & Sons. Strikers Make Ugly Threats. "Day on Thursday landed us at Elkhorn. We were met at the station by a crowd of whites. They told us if we went to work they would do us harm. Some of them dis played revolvers. We were told that if we took their places in the mines-and lived in the company houses they would blow up the honses and throw us all into the river. As soon as Day heard them making threats h'e jumped on a train coming to Pittsburg. I asked him to take us awav, but he couldn't do it. None of us had any money. Early Thursday morning the greater number of us left, going in all directions. We three waiked to Pittsburg and got here late Fri day night There are a number of them on the way here now. Bay promised us so much that some of the men brought their wives and little children with them. Thev could not walk all the way to Pitts burg, and had to stay in Elkhorn at the mercy of the strikers. Those who had fam ilies even went so far as to dispose of their household effects at Lynchburg, and now they have nothing. Day Conld Not Bo Fonml. "We tried to find Day since we came to Pittsburg, but have not been able to locate him yet If we get our hands on the fellow he will be sorrv he ever seen us." The three men worked in tobacco factories in Virginia and knew nothing about mining. Chief Elliott gave them transportation to Cumberland and bought them something tp eat He expects to have to trans port tbe whole 84 in the next four or five days.- He said that Day was liable'to arrest by the poor author ities of Elkhorn. If these people became a charge to them Day could then be made pay a fine of $75 for each man or woman who asked for aid. Had Day brought these people to Pittsburg this is what Chief Elliot would have done. Day was seen last night He denied that he had misrepresented the situation at Elkhorn to the colored men. He is a colored man himself and very bright "I deny,'' said he, "that I made any promises to these people thai were false, so far as I knew. W. H. Brown & Sons sent me to Lyncbbnrg to get these men. Mr. Drown told me that there was no trouble at Elkhorn. He said thev intended to mine coal at 3 cents a bushel and had also de cided to supplant their white miners by blacks. This is exactly what I told the men I hired. Day's Side of the Story. 'The men were told the mines were near Pittsburg and I guess the fellows thought they would have a soft snap. It is true that the whites met the colored men at the train and did make threats, I was at Elkhorn to-day, and there are a number of the imported men there yet I do not think there,will be any trouble. "I don't see why those fellows went to the Department ot Charities. Why didn't they come to me?" "Would you have paid their way home?" was suggested. "I did not sav that I would," was Day's reply. With this the interview ended. The river operators yesterday in discuss ine the strike said that if the bid men did not want to work at the reduced rate they could begin to hunt work elsewhere. On being asked what was meant, it was given out that the decision had been about reached that men would be sepj in to take the places of the sttikers; that there were plenty of idle men iho were not only wilhug but anxious to return at the reduced rates. One operator said: "We have the right side and ask nothing but justice, and when we asked the miners to miue coal tor the boats at the same rates they do for the raiiroads we asked nothing but what was fair. We guaranteed them steady work, but they think they have us in a hole. Either Work or Get Out "We intend to teach them better and will show that thev can either go to work or get out, as the leading operators intend to put new men into their places. Strikes have been broken this way and can be again. There are plenty "of idle workmen, and they ill be brought here. I do not think there will be any trouble, and the striking miners are not of the class of men to cause trouble. You will see that when they see their places are being taken they will make a rush for their old posi tions. I think this new move will soon break the strike, and that the mines will all be working within two weeks. The operators mean business, and intend to meet their competitors, the railroads, on an equal footing." John O'Neil, of the firm of W. W. O'Neil & Co., said: "I consider the strike has already been broken by the importation of the men bv W. H. Brown & Sons, and the end will soon be here. These men have been sent into the region with the intention ot remaining on the ground, as steady work has been guaranteed. We are already losing by this prolonged strike, and cannot afford to wait on the decision of the strikers, as they show.a disposition to stay out until the water comes, when we will be helpless. More men will be brought to work and the strikers will be forced to accept the reduction. There will not likely be any trouble." A number of other operators spoke in the same strain and thought a means lor break ing the strike had been found. Kane's Death Accidental.

Bobert Uttle' Death Due to the Irritation of an Old Wound In the Head The Peo ple Interested Will Appear Before the Coroner This Mornlnf. A report reached the Coroner yesterday that Bobert Little, of Swissvale. had died under suspicious circumstances. Grant Miller investigated the case last night He called on Dr. Cunningham, tbe attending physician, who stated that Little had died from the effect of an injury at the base of the brain which iiritated an old wound re ceived when he was 9 vents old from th kick of a horse. Whenever he got excited or drank anything it affected bis head. On' Tuesday night Little was in the city with some friends to hear the returns and went home on an early train Wednesday morning. He had been drinking some and acted queerly. At Swissvale he sat down on a wheelbarrow' of T. V. MeCIarren, who asked him to get up, and then play fully upset the barrow. Little started after MeCIarren, threatening to hurt him, and the latter ran into the station, closing the door. Little broke through the door, and cnasea jucuiarren around the Duuaing. not succeeding in capturing him he became wild, and as the Western express passed by tried to throw himself under the train, but was prevented. David B Little, a brother, stated that Bobert had been when a boy and ever since subject to spells, especially if he got excited. He had several attacks after he was taken'home and died in one of them Thursday evening. He acted like a crazy man, and it took several men to hold him. The bruises on his face were inflicted while struggling in one of the spells. Mr. Little seemed to think that his brother's death was due to the old trouble, which was irritated by the excitement, and did not blame MeCIarren. All interested in the case have been cited to appear before the Coroner this morning at li o ciocK. BEGINNING TO WEAKEN. The Homestead Strikers Urged to Beturn in a Body When All Hope Is Gone. For the first time since weekly meetings have been held at Homestead by the locked out men the possibility of the men losing the fight was vesterday broached. Mr. W. T. Boberts denounced the finishers and said: "If the Homestead strike ends to-morrow in favor ot the firm they are the one's to blame. We want none of theirsympathy and are not objects ot charity. It matters little what they may do, they cannot disrupt the Amalgamated Association. If the time comes when you think you can no longer bold out, say so; but don't go back as stragglers." Upon being asked what they were willing to do, the audience answered with a vigorous yell, "Fight it out to the end." At the' close of the meeting Chairman Crawford announced thatTavid Lynch had gone to Chicago to secure funds and would return in a few days. It is understood' that all deputy sheriffs are to be withdrawn from Homestead as soon as J. S. Hollingshead has been ap pointed Burgess by the courts. All the departments of the mill will be put on a tonnage basis of pay to-morrow. At the usual shutdown of the mills about Christmas extensive improvements will be made in the 119-inch and the 32-inch mills. Tbe most important of these will be new tables, which will be operated by electricity ihstead of steam. THE CAH EXPLODED. Two Sonthslde Boys Badly Burned by Oil Last Xight. A can of oil exploded last evening at the home of Anton Beck, 2522 Josephine street, Southside, with fatal results. His little son John, aged 6 months, is dead, and Joseph, aged 6 years, was not expected last night to live until to-morrow. He is burned, so Ladiv 1that Tie cannot recover. About 7 o clock last night Mrs. Beck went to a neighboring store to buy the Sun day supply of provisions. During her absence Joseph procured a can of oil and began pouring it on the fire. The explosion that followed threw the burn ing fluid over the boys, and they were immediately enveloped in flames. Leaving his brother to his fate Joseph ran out of the room and into the street screaming with aony. The neighbors were quickly at tracted, and procured wraps with which to envelop them. But help came too late, and they were literally roasted alive. The mother, attracted by the confusion, rushed home only to find her children burned almost beyond recognition. The younger ot the boys, who was un able to get out of the room, was burned so badly tbat he died within an hour and the other cannot live. The parents of the two boys are Poles. TJHEXPECTED OPPOSITION; Withdrawal of the resolution Instructing; the Mayor. Mayor Gourley was notified yesterday that the resolution instructing him to sign the petition for widening Diamond street through the market house will be with drawn at the meetine of Councils to-morrow. The object of this move is to avoid a veto on the subject Those who caused the resolution to be presented did not anticipate opposition from the Mayor. As he has signified bis intention of vetoing it, they see there is nothing to be gained by pressing the point, as, if he would not sign the resolution, he would not sign the petition according to its instructions.

Marriage, Bureau to Be Estab lished in the Smoky City FOE C0YY0ONG MENAKD WOMEN. They Pay Their Fees and the Manager Does All the Rest. A SIMILAR INSTITUTION IS CHICAGO Pittsburg is to have a new enterprise in the shape of a marriage bureau. Hugh Scott, the promoter of the venture, con ducts a similar scheme with great success in Chicago. During the latter part of the weelc Mr. Scott visited this city for the purpose of establishing a branch office to bis agency. Jnst before returning to his home, Mr. Scott said he was favorably im pressed with Pittsburg, but remained non commital as to locating here. For the benefit ot the uninitiated it might be said a marriage bureau is con ducted upon th,e same principle as an em ployment agenoy. In the former, instead of seeking situations for the patrons, the latter are supplied with life-partners. The strange business originated in Germany, and there are but two or three places of the kind in this country. One of these is lo cated in New York, and another in Chicago. The manager of such an enterprise is better known as a "Schatchen," or marriage broker. His profession, although lucra tive, is a peculiar one, because he deals in love as if it were an ordinary commodity. Is Marriage a Failure? The subject "Is Marriage a Fail ure?" has been widelv discussed and commented upon. All those who have made the venture, but failed in secur ing a prize, are prompt in declaring that no such thing as matrimonial bliss exists. Mr. Scott tells a far different tale. He says he has been in the marriage business for nearly seven years and during that time over 4.000 persons of both sexes owe their happiness to his efforts, or, in other words, he has bronght about at least 2,000 weddings. In Chicago the strange business is carried on under the name of the International Mar riage Bureau, which will also probably be the' title of the Pittsburg concern it Mr. Scott locates here. A large portion of the peculiar industry is transacted by correspondence. Mr. Scott is tbe recipient of hundreds of communica tions relative to the delicate subject every day. Merchants, bankers, brokers, clerks, ranchers and nearly every other vocation in life are represented. Blushing maidens from 16 to 50 years of age, widows of means and without means, typewriters and book agents with no end of attractions, girls that work or don't work and won't work are among the features.

A Former Besldent of This City Arrested for Passing Bogrw Checks. Behind tbe bars of a Chicago prison lan guishes Edward "Valentine, a former resi dent of Pittsburg. He was arrested in the "Windy City" on Friday last for passing bogus checks. His method of operation in most cases was to mail checks to himself and get them cashed by hotel clerks and business men. In this style of swindling Valentine was particularly audacious. He made several rich strikes before he was caught, having beaten four of the leading hotels and as many more of the large mer cantile houses before he was arrested. While in this city Valentine was em ployed as a clerk in Gusky's and Kauf manns' stores. He always wore good clothes and had some expensive jewelry. The large sums of money he frequently handled led someofhij friends to believe that everything was not straight Their suspicions were finally confirmed when one day he suddenly disappeared from Pitts burg, and it was rumored that he left town because the police were getting too close to bis heels. Valentine is well connected, and always moved in good society. At the time of his departure from this city he was en gaged to marry a most estimable and very wealthy lady of Allegheny.
