GENERAL SPOBTING SEWS OF THE DAT
There was a satisfactory meeting of tbe
stockholders ot the local baseball club yes
terday afternoon at the Hotel Duquesne.
AW the leading stockholders were there in
cluding Messrs. Temple, Kerr, Brown and
others. After a long discussion it was de
cided to elect A. C Buckenberger, Presi
dent: Al Scandrett, Secretary; L. Brown,
Treasurer; "W. W. Kerr, Vice President
The annual report showed that the club
Lad in substance lost $2,600. That loss was
figured by including the purchase of Van
Hahren and two or three more outlays that
were occasioned daring the season by the
management Altogether the stockholders
considered that they were very fortunate in
escaping without an assessment
It was pointed out that the 12-club ar
rangement carried many items of expense,
but one member of the club asserted that
during the next season the Pittsburg team
would be the winners, and, therefore, all
other teams wonld come here to lower the
colors of the anticipated pennant winners.
During the meeting it was forciblv
pointed out that if Mr. Buckenberger bad
been managing the team during the entire
season the outlay wonld hare been less and
tbe income more. A resolution was
adopted to this effect
After the meeting Manager, or more cor
rectly speaking, President Buckenberger
said: "We have put on our list young
Barrett, a good and promising young fel
low. Our team lat rear was "not what
it should have beeu, but next year things
will be different"

The Mnrphy Meeting for Social Outcasts
Was a Failure.
The meeting announced Jjy Francis
Murphy for the inmates of the disorderly
houses of the city at Lafayette Hall, yes
terday afternoon, was not a glittering
success. Only three of the social outcasts
attended. Mr. Murphy, John M. Kelly,
ProC Weeden, several representatives from
the Deaconesses Home.Mgs. Eichard Fulton
and others interested in Christian Temper
ance work were there. They all gathered
abont the three unfortunates and talked to
them of reforming. A committee of three
was appointed to secure a meeting room
somewhere in the lower part of the city
where Mr- Murphy will attend and address
any who may gather there A room was
secured at Ka 10 First arei.ue.
While Mr. Murphy was waiting in the
large and almost empty hall for the audi
ence to gather he explained that he had not
gone in person to the dsorderly houses to
invite the inmates to attend his meeting as
he had intended and on that account he con
cluded the people stayed away.
A letter ironi one ol the abandoned women
was sent to Mr. Murphy while he was wait
ing for his proposed meeting ta develop.
It discussed the social evil in a great variety
ol forms.
Fiaucis Murpbv has decided to remain in
Pittsburg until Saturday. He will- hold
several meetings at Na 10 First avenue be
fore he leaves tnis city. He is confident he
can accomplsih much good.

AND THEY WERE MARRIED.
A Father Is Anxlons Abont Mis Elbplng
Daughter Didn't Have a Marriage Cer
tificate Handy-A Telegram Dispels the
Trouble.
Mr. and Mrs. Harry A. Hall, an eloping
couple who were married al Younsstown on
Monday, were arrested in this city yester
day because they could not produce their
marriage certificate. Subsequently a tele
gram to the police authorities at Youngs
town brought back a reply to the effect that
the pair had been legally married by Alder
man Hallowell. of that city, thus corrobor
ating the story told by the blushing bride
that she had left the certificate at home.
Hall is a conductor on the Sharpsbarg
branch of the Citizens' Traction lipe. His
bride is Minnie, the daughter of Louis
TValzer, the proprietor ot a coal yard and
of a hot! in Rharnahniv. Tt was at hil in-
ab uuni;e ncauiuiiiici jrcfccw uu,u,u,,
and produced a newspaper clipping "which
stated the couple bad gone to Youngstown
to get married, but failed.' They came back
Monday night and as soon as Mr. Walzer
heard of it he notified the police.
Hall and the girl bad only been ac
quainted a few weeks. Both are tall,
handsome young folks. He is a Presbyte
rian, however, and Walzer being a Catho
lic objected to his coming to the house.
They left the city on Sunday. On their
return Monday night they rented a room
on Forty-third street, where they were
found yesterday. When his daughter
claimed she was married her father would
not believe it because she'could not show
a certificate. Superintendent O'Mara al
lowed them to go while he telegraphed
to Youngstown, saying he would rearrest
them if their story was untrue In the
meantime the bride found the certificate
and showed it to her father. He was rather
displeased than otherwise, because he did
not want a Presbyterian son-in-law. Mr.
Walzer also objected to Hall because of a
physical infirmity which he sutlers as the
result of a street car accident, but now
that the marriage is settled he will with
draw opposition and help them along.

BUBLEIGH WILL TEY THE CASES.
He Says the Homestead Prosecutions Wi'I
Not Be Dropped.
It was stated yesterday that the Carnegie
officials were making desperate efforts to
squeeze' evidence out of their Homestead
employes and the remnant of locked-out
men against their comrades charged with
murder and riot Incidentally it was as
serted that District Attorney Burleigh had
announced that he would not proceed with
the prosecution of the Homestead men un
less the attorneys and detectives employed
bv the Carnegie Company produced more
direct evideuce than they had Tn the trial of
Sylvester Critchlow for murder. ,
Mr. Burleigh said last night in the most
positive manner and after arequest that tbe
denial should be made very plaiu: "With
regard to al! the cases arising from the
Homestead troubles, you may say for me,
once for all, that 1 mean to trv every one of
them. This applies to all the Homestead
cases I know of, and of course includes the
indictments against both sides, the Carnesie
people and their employes. It 'is a lie to
say that I ever asserted" that my prosecution
of these cases depended upon anything out
side of my duty. Those who say that I
have, taken anv other stand lie, and the
statements hinting that I am inclined to
retire from the prosecution of those in
dicted by the grand jury are simply made
out of the whole cloth for a purpose. I
shall not drop any ofthe cases.
526,000 BAIL DEMANDED.
Friends of Sylvesler Critchlow Working
Hard to Have Him Released.
Joseph Bennett and other friends of Syl
vester Critchlow, whose recent trial on a
charse of murder In connection with the
Homestead troubles attracted so muoh atten
tion, were in Braddock yesterday seeking
bail in behalf ot the defendant. Critchlow
is still held in jail on two indictments for
murder, one for treason, and another for
aggravated riot. The bail demanded for
hi release is 26,000, a part of which has
been secured among Braddock men.'

The Marked Success
of Scott's Emulsion in consump
tion, scrofula and other forms of
hereditary disease is due to its
powerful food properties.
soli's Emulsion
rapidly creates healthy flesh

taints develop only when the
system becomes weakened.
Nothing in the world
of medicine has been
so successful in dis
eases that are most
menacing to life. Phy

A
Revolution
In Eating
has been brought about by the
introduction of Cottolene, the
new vegetable shortening. The
discovery of this product, and the
demonstration of its remarkable
qualities, has attracted the widest
interest. Hitherto the common
shortening has been lard, or
indifferent butter. Every one has
probably suffered occasional dis
comfort from lard-cooked food;
while it is well known that thous
ands are obliged to abstain entire
ly from everything of that kind.
To such people, Cottolene is of
peculiar value, widening as it
does, the range of what may be
eaten and enjoyed. Cottolene
is a cooking marvel. It combines
with the food imparts to it a
tempting color, a delicate flavor,
and an appetizing crispness.
No trace of greasinessremains
to offend the taste, or disturb the
. digestion.
Cottolene is worthy of the
careful notice of all those who
value good food, of itself or for
its hygienic properties.
