MB. CAENEGIE CABLED,
'Asking That Concessions He Hade
to the Homestead Worker.
EECEIVED A POINTED REPLY.
The Fntbniiutio New Torfc inarchist
Koir Spending His Pays
MAKIKG HOSE IN THE PENITENTIARY
The Anarchist Berkman, who said he
ironld suicide it given more than a ten
years' sentence, is quietly serving out the
mere beginning of his more than score
- ears in the penitentiary. Berkman, with
his agile fingers and gleaming eye, is serv
ing his first practical nses in this world by
turning his talents to account in making
hosiery. This is a new industry in the pen
itentiary, and promises good results. The
Anarchist is disgusted with American ideas
of justice, and says he will leare this coun
try ibreTer, alter his sentence is served.
There are 900 convicts in the penitentiary,
ind many more are expected, as 100 persons
lharged with penal crimes are awaiting sen
tence in Allegheny county alone.
One story of the Homestead aflair yet re
mains to be told before the old year ends,
and that is the story of the cablegrams be
tween Andrew Carnegie and H. C. Frick.
Their story is brief but eloquent
On the one side of the ocean was the man
who was given full and autocratic power in
the mere management of the great mills,
and on the other side was the man who held
the balance of financial power in his hands,
while neither conld exercise his lull prerog
ative without the assistance of the other.
Ever since that memorable riotous day
of the sixth of July, one event of such
startling import has followed so rapidly up
on the heels of the other.that the public be
lieved each time that the crisis between
labor and capital had arisen and passed.
But there was only one real crisis in the
whole interesting story, and that crisis was
met whether for right or for wrong let
future events tell by one man.
A 'Wish and a Weapon.
That man was Berkman, the nltra-Social-Kihilist,
born in a foreign land, bred,
raised and adopted by the ofiscourings of
the yery lowest of a ifew World's society,
and then cast in the midst of the Home
stead problem with a weapon in his hand
and what he fondly imagined was a solution
of the whole thing.
"Had Berkman never appeared upon the
scene I am confident the whole trouble
would have been amicably settled," said a
rentleman yesterday who has been con
versant with the Carnegie Company's aflairs
. all through the strike. "Mr. Carnegie was
at his borne in Dunfermline during the
warmest part of the struggle," said he,
"and was advised regularly by cablegram
of what occurred at the mills. Mr. Car
negie rarely answered the cables, as I have
reason to know, as I was in the city office
here almost daily. The cablegrams s.nt to
him up to a certain date were merely ad
visory. That is, they told of the condition
of the mills, how many men were at work,
what the prospect was of securing men, etc.
"Early In the afternoon of July 23 Berk
man made a desperate and horrifying at
tempt on the life of H. C. Frick, and I say
had that attempt never been made an ami
cable adjustment of the trouble would
have come about The story of the cable
grams tells this. Up to a certain date those
tent to Mr. Carnegie were merely advisory.
Three weeks after Berkman's desperate at
tempt Mr. Frick was sitting in his office
when a cablegram was received from An
drew Carnegie.
Blue on Both Sides.
"Affairs were then looking decidedly blue
'on both sides. Men were returning to work
but not in sufficient numbers to please the
firm, though they were enough to discour
age the strikers. I do not know what the
cablegram from Mr. Carnegie said, nor
does anyone but Mr. Frick. I do know
what the answer was, as several about the
office saw it, and the answer told plainly
tnough what Mr. Carnegie had said. The
answer read:
Andrew Carnegie, Dunfermline. Scotland:
No. That would encourage anarchy.
H. C. Fbicx.
"It was talked about the office at the
time," continued the eentlenian. "that Mr-
Carnegie had asked for a truce of some sort
Mr.Frlek was even then suffering lrom an
exhibition of anarchistic sentiment in its
worst and most murderous form, and for
that reason he answered as he did. Had
Berkman never made the attempt upon his
life, his answer would have been far different
".mi sentiment, -xnat would enconratre
three terms in the Lower House, and during
the last session particultsly he was the
accepted leader on the Republican side. He
had the hardest fight of his life to be elected
Senator, but he won the battle by about 800
majority. His experience in legislation
will guarantee to him a conspicuous place
in the Senate.
"I am not disposed to take an active part
in the Senate this winter," Mr. Fruit said,
"I have no legislation In which I am per
sonally interested and I will remain there
just to watch the interests of my people.
Edward Smilev will be re-elected Chief
Clerk of the Senate without opposition;
Voorhees will be made Chief Clerk of the
House and Thompson will be the Speaker.

In my judgement the session will be a short
one, unless the majority locks horns with
the Governor over the apportionment of
the State. In that event a long session is
probable orau extra session is possible."

The American Chemical Society Takes a
Glance at Some or Pittsburg's Industries
The last Session of a Successful Meet
ing A New Branch Formed Here.
The closing session of the annual meeting
of the American Chemical Society was held
last night in the Academypf Science andArt
The attendance was pretty good, though a
large number of delegates had left alter the
day's visiting of the many mills in and
around Pittsburg. During the day the
members visited the Howard Plate Glass
Works and the Duquesne and Homestead
fteel plants, the works of the Pittsburg
deduction Company, the Pittsburg Tin
Plate Company and the Chambers Glass
company.
Prof. Edward Hart, of Lafayette College,
Easton, Pa., presided and Durand Wood
man acted as secretary at last evening's
meeting.
Prof. E. B. Warder, of Howard Univer
sity, read a paper on "Physical Chemistry."
After discussing the science of physical
chemistry he refered to the International
Congress of Chemists to be held in Chicago
the coming year. He hoped it would find
what lines are open for search and what
problems awaiting solution would be solved.
A paper by Dr. C. W. Volney on
"American Lithographic Stone" was made
by Prof. A. a Hale. The paper was a de
scription of chemical analyses of the lime
stone used for lithographic purposes found
in different places and a comparison be
tween the different stones.
Prof, a E. Monroe, of the United States
torpedo station at Newport, read a paper on
the composition of modern powders. The
papers were practically a record of analyt
ical tests made of various modern gunpow
ders, principally smokeless powders, show-'
ing their composition aud describing the
manner of making the tests.
A communication from Prof. J. F. Geis-
ner, of New York, as to the advisability of
the adoption of a table of atomlcal weights
was read bv Prof Sabin. Prof. Geisner
recommended the appointment of a commit
tee of representative chemits to prepare a
suitable table.
The Chairman was authorized to appoint
a committee of one to report at the next
annual meeting his observations on atomlcal
weights.
The society was not in favor of adopting
the reformed system of spelling certain
scientific terms, and when brought up the
question was promptly dropped.
About 35 applications for membership
had been received since the last meeting
and were pending action before the coun
cil. With a vote of thanks to all persons
and corporations who have aided in making
their visit to Pittsburg pleasant, the so
ciety adjourned.
The chemists of this city have been
thoroughly stirred up by the meeting and
will at once separate from the Engineers'
Society and form a branch of the American
Chemical Society. Heretofore none of the
many chemists in Tittsburg have belonged
to this society, but were united with the engi
neers, and it was partially with this obfect
that the meeting was called here. Some of
the chemists will visit the Connellsville
coke region to-day.

TIIE DEVELOPMENT OP A GREAT CITI
The department chiefs at City Hall have
nearly completed their reports for the ten
months past of the present fiscal year and
the estimates of their next year's expenses.
To-morrow those documents will be sent to
the Mayor's office according to law. The
chiefs decline to indicate what their figures
for the various bureaus are, but from the
Information gained it is highly probable
the total appropriations this year will
slightly exceed $5,000,000.
Last year the total was 4,999,802 50.
The Department o'f Publio Works received,
all told, $1,985,706; Public Safety, 5804,100,
and Public Charities, $90,000. Interest and
tax on city loans, sinking funds, schools
and other necessary expenditures formed
the balance.
jChief Bigelow said yesterday his total
would not exceed last year's figures. "It
may be less," he said, "and I am trying to
pare things down as olose as possible con
sistently with the progress which is justi
fied by the city's development
Much Bepavlng to Be Done.y
"An immense amount of repaving should
be done next year. The are many old cob
blestone streets which should have been
fixed up years ago, but we couldn't do all
in one year, so repaved the most important
ones first I expect repaving will cut quite
a figure in next year's estimate, but I want
to keep it below $500,000 if possible. The
resolutions already sent to me by Councils
requesting the repaving of certain streets
call for more than that sum, but some will
necessarily be stricken off the list There
are other improvements in parks and ex
tension of the water system which will re
quire considerable money next year.
' "As the city is developed, as streets are
paved and farm lands are transformed Into
populous city districts the expenses of my
department decrease. There has been a
wonderful growth in the past year. Miles
of streets and sewers have been paved and
laid, over 70,000 feet of water pipe have 1
been laid aud public lighting has been ex
tended wonderfully.
Effect of the City's Growth.
"As these improvements extend they in
crease the expenditures of the Public Works
Department' When a street has been paved
and sewered it must be lighted and kept
clean aud it costs more money to do it
Each newly paved street seems as an incen
tive to the paying of others. Thus the de
velopment is carried on. To this spirit of
development is due the fact that Pittsburg
is the best lighted city in the world, one of
the best paved and sewered in America and
one oi the most beautiful generally."
Chief Brown thinks his department will
need in the neighborhood of $1,000,000 next
year. The addition of 104 men to his fire
and police forces will add over $100,000 to
his expenditures. Several new engine
houses and police stations to be erected will
still further increase the expenses. Chief
Elliot thinks the operation of his depart
ment will not exceed this year's estimate.
ICE GORGE IN THE RIVER.
The Sudden BIse in the Temperature In
creases the Danger From Floating Ice
and High Water Blvermen Preparing
for lp Warmer Weather Promised To
Day. It was with apprehension that the river
men read the bulletins from the up river
points yesterday. The extreme cold weather
of the past week had frozen the rivers to a
depth of several inches and the promised
warm wave threatened to increase the dan
ger of an ice eorge. Notwithstanding the
shallowness .of the streams the rivermen
began at once to prepare for a heavy rise
by securing men to cut away the ice from
the towboats at the wharf. Every precau
tion was taken to prevent the boats and
barges being injured by the ice.
Eeports indicated that a warm wave was
approaching from the West aud that it was
due here . to-day. The temperature will
likely rise above the freezing point to be
followed by rain. The temperature is
likely to go as high as 50, which would
cause a heavy rise, as the snow near the
headwaters of the Monongahela, Youghio
gheny and Allegheny rivers is heavy, while
there is heavy ice at all points.
The Ohio at Louisville had been frozen
over until yesterday, when it was suddenly
released by the waim weather, doing much
damage to the locks' of the canals and boats
in port All points below Pittsburg are
open, while the ice around this city was
breaking up yesterday. By to-day the
harbor will likely be entirely open, but
traffic cannot be resumed for several days,
as the floating ice will interfere with navi
gation. "What is troubling the river men
most is danger from ice gorges. The water
is very low and nothing is leared should it
remain low and the ice be allowed to float
quietly off, but it is probable that on ac
count of the sudden rise in temperature the
ffater will rise rapidly and thus much dam-
e be done to the- interests all along the
ver.

Parkersbukg, W. Va., Dec. 29.
Special. Judge Jacobs, of the Doddridge
County Circuit Court, has just rendered an
important decision to shippers of liquor.
In the case of Flannagan, a liquor dealer of
this city, a customer made an order which
the dealer shipped c o. d. by express, and
was indicted for selling liquor without a
license in that county. The case was tried
before a jury and the defendant was ac
quitted, but the State appealed. Judge
Jacobs dismisses the appeal, holding that
the sale was made in this county and that
the express company was the agent of the
purchaser, not of the seller.
It has long been considered illegal to ship
liquors into several districts in this State
unless they were bought and paid for prior
to shipment from elsewhere; but this de
cision does away with that idea, and now
the Doddridge county people can have all
the wet goods they want, provided they pay
the return charges of the express company
handling the purchase money.

1 Andrews went East vesterday
morning. He is contesting for a seat in the
Lower House. His district in Crawford
county is usually good for 1,000 Republican
majority, but Mr. Andrews was beaten by
Higbee, the Democratic candidate, by five
votes. Andrews filed a contest on a techni
cality, but the Republican leaders of the
House have declared that they will not dis-
franchise the voters of any distriet on a
J technicality. M. B. Lemon, one of the
Allegheny county members, said yesterdav
that if Mr. Andrews could show fraud or

They School right In Upper St Clair Town
ship Stops Dedicatory Ceremonies The
Prof:' Smith and Prof. Caldwell Rival
Factions Create Another Scene.
The school fight in Upper St Clair town
ship culminated yesterday in a row that
broke up the dedication of the new Mc
Millan school.
The fight occurred over the appointment
of Prof. A. G. Smith as teacher in the
school at a salary of $50 per month, when
some of the members declared that he was
not to receive more than $40 per month, as
his experience was not sufficient to justify
a higher salary. In the midst of all this
trouble, Prof. Smith quietly resigned, stat
ing that he did not care for the monev in
volved, but was anxious that justice be
done him.
Mr. Smith is teacher in the Beadlinc
Sunday school, which was founded by his
employer, the well-known mine ownerj He
is well thought of in that district, and was
invited by Mr. Beadline to attend the dedi
cation of the new McMillan school, with his
class of Sunday scholars. The interest in
the affair had grown greatly, owing to the
fight made against Prof Smith, and a large
crowd attended the dedication. Prof.
Hamilton made the dedicatory address, the
flag was presented by C P. Mayer and re
ceived by Secretary McMillan, and all was
peace until Prof. Smith was called upon tor
a speech. Prof. J. C Caldwell, who had
been appointed in place ot Prof. Smith, was
also present, and both men bad
a strong following. Prof. Smith
began his speech very nicely, and capti
vated the audience bv his eloauence. He
soon drifted away to his own storv and his
trouble with the St Clair Scboof Board,
and gave his version in good ronnd English.
Some of the opposition objected to his
terms, and asked that he stop talking, but
the bright young Professor refused to listen
to their orders. Amid a eenerallv livelv
scene the Chairman of the meetintr declared.

the little row 'departed, to wage war when

Last May Mr. Bamser was stricken with
a peculiar ailment He was then a strong,
powerful man. The medical skill of the
country was called into conference on his
case. He was sent to the Sanitarium in the
mountains, where the physicisns decide'd
that he was suffering with a flooding kidney.
His treatment was not beneficial, nowever,
and he was again taken to his home. Drs.
Marsh, of Mt Pleasant, and Sutton, of
Pittsburg, attended him. The patient was
finally brought to Dr. Sutton's hospital.
His condition continued to grow weaker
and it was decided that an operation would
be necessary. The physicians agreed that
the operation would likely prove fatal, but
in any event they were content that death
would only be hastened a day or two.
The operation was performed yesterday
by Drs. Sutton, Marsh and Litchfield. The
patient was subjected to an anaesthetic,
and he was found to be suffering with can
cer of the pancreas. The ailment was
found to be necessarily fatal and it is not
believed Mr. Bamsey will survive the
shock of the operation.
Mr. Bamsey, whose life is .limited to a
few hours, was one of the substantial props
under the sucoessful development of the
coke industry. He is regarded by H. O.
Frick as one oi the best managers in his
employ.
