the special turnpike connnlltee. In
another communication the mayor sub
mitted the following appointments:
William Kldridge, permanent man,
Niagara Hose company: William Mar
tin, stoker. Crystal Kngine company;
.1. T. Hi lei, inspector, Wheeler avenue
Inlernl sewer; James MeCorinlck, In
spector. West Lackawanna avenue
pave. All were continued forthwith,
by unanimous consent. The mayor also
culled attention to the necessity of
tightening the "counters" on the two
new bridges, which matter was re
ferred to tiie streets ami bridges com
mittee. Mr. luirr Introduced a resolution di
recting I hat the moneys rec. iveil from
the slate as this city's share of the tax
on foreign insurance premiums be
turned over to the liremen's relief as
sociation, where it is to be used as a
pension fund for disabled firemen. In
a lengthy preamble the measure sets
forth Unit this is tlte purpose the money
was intended for and it was so under
stood when tin- law was passed, owing
to (he fact that the constitution for
bids civil pensions, the real purpose of
the act could not be Insetted without
endangering It. so the rramer of the
bill had It passed through I he legisla
ture ami signed by the governor with
its real purpose not expressed, but
mutually understood, f'nuncil did not
fully understand the Import of the reso
lution and on motion of .Mr. I'hillen
ilett it was referred to the lire depart
ment committee.
TO OI'KN OUKKUV STItKKT.
Mr. Coyne again started the agita
tion for opening Cherry si reel, by In
troducing a resolution directing tin
street commissioner to remove the
I iclawate and Hudson station platform
which now blockade! tic thoroughfare,
if at the expiration of ten days the
company fails to comply with u request
for its removal. .Mr. Coyne stated that
he was alled before the grand Jury to
explain why he permitted the block
ing of this street and he is now forced
to make a decisive move to keep him
self out ot the hands of the law. There
were some exchanges between the com
pany nnd the city concerning this nutt
ier during tin' lust session of councils;,
but nothing came of it. The company
was willing to open Hip street provid
ing Fig street, which Is only lilly feel
below, should be closed: it being un
fair, the company argues, to expect it
to niainlain two watchmen In such
close proximity. The end of tlte liseul
year came while the matter was under
consideration and It died with the com
mittee o which 11 was entrusted. II
now goes to the streets ami brldgi s
committee for a solution.
The use of the council room for the
grand Jury sessions was granted by a
resolution introduced by Mr. Wagner.
Hiils for i (instructing the retaining wall
on .Market street, near the i nitario nnd

IN COMMON COUNCIL.
Casey A; Kelly Ask Permission lo

In the lower branch of councils Inst

VARIOUS THEORIES.
Spsculalion as to HowthcScholfz Shoot
ing Occurred Victim Still Alive
but Very Weak.
Frank Scholz, the victim of Tuesday
night's mysterious shooting affray, was
still alive at li o'clock last night. His
condition remained unchanged, except
that he had a weak spell during the af
ternoon. The hospital physicians say
that his condition is critical, but he may
recover.
Coiiny Detective I.eyshon Is of the
opinion that the shooting was done by
blackmailers, and that it wus uninten
tional. The spot where the affair oc
curred Is a favorite resting place for
bicycle riders. Not Infrequently young
couples who halt there are surprised by
thugs reiiresenting themselves as spe
clul otiiccrs ami frightened into paying
lilacl'.inail to escape threatened arrest
and exposure. Since the shooting oc
curred the police have learned that this
nefarious practice has been carried on
at this point quite us generally as at
Nay Aug Kails, some years ago, and at
I'aiiiawti. previous to the Hiiro shoot
ing. Tin inity detective believes that
Scholz. was approached by a pair of
these leeclies ami that when he refused
to grant I heir demands they proceeded
to curry out their threat of arrest at
the point of a revolver. In the scntlle
that ensued Schola grubbed the revol
ver and il was accidentally discharged.
.Mr. Heyslion argues that the wound in
Scholz's right hand Is a substantiation
of his theory.
The other theory that Scholz was
mistaken for some one else nnd that the
assailant was a jealous husband and
friend is more favored by the police.
They believe I be story as told by
Scttolz and the Clark girl and hold that
the hitler theory is the only one that
will dovetail with their tttorics. which
tally in all the main particulars and
many details, ami which, it is reason
able, were not concocted and agreed
upon before hand, because at first the
girl told a false story and later otic that
tallied with Scholz's version.
The Clark giii. failing to secure bail,
was, yesterday til'lernoon, Sent up to
Hi unly jail, loiie held as a witness.
In case Scholz recovers she will be lib
era led on her own recognizance.
AMUSEMENTS.
"The Imughler of Paul Renin Ine" Is
tic- title of mi emotional ilraniu. Ill
which Margaret r'ullor will be seen at
the Academy of Music tonight. II Is
said to lie a ilrama of uii'usual power,
pies 'iiling a story of absorbing' inter
est, worked out through scenes of in
tense emotion iiinl pathos, ami of grout
human interests, varied with comedy
of IlllllSllal excellence. I'allluS. II is
said. Is its essential quality. A strong
play, pure and wholesome, interesting
in its story, and emotional in its quali
ty, all of w hich "The I laughter of Paul
Itoinaine" is ii pol led to be, will be
hailed as a boon by the great majority
of our playgoers, tired oi' the problem
type, which represented not Hie life of
the great body of Hie people, but of a
small seel ion of society, living, in a
si ruined and artificial u I niospheie. per
verted lives.
V
All exchange says of "A Hoy Waul
ed," which Will be Seen lit Ihe Aeadeiny
of Music Saturday night: "'A liny
Wanted,' Charles K. Hhuiey's new farce
comedy. Is certainly one of the best of
lis kind ever seen in Pittsburg. From
the lime the curtain went up upon the
first act until It descended on the last,
three hours later, there was one long
laugh. The piece Is written for the
author's brother, Harry Clay Hlaney,
and indeed ll seems to suit him. He
has plenty of work to do ami does il
well. The whole coninany is mnde up
of artists, and nil were well received.
Harry Clay Hlaney as Phoney Hlce is
one of the most entertaining 'juveniles'
Feen in this city for many years."
All iinuouncenienl that will interest
our lady readers Is made by Canary &
Lederer, the malingers of Lillian Rus
sell, who comes to Hie Fmthlnghani
next Monday to present the new comic
opera for the lirst time. "An American
Heuuty." Kvery lady holding a cou
pon for a reserved orchestra seat will
be presented with a handsome souvenir
in the form of an engraved folder con
taining some twenty ornate half lone
pictures of the fair diva In all her var
ious successful characters. The book
is gotten up in the highest style of art
and Is well worth an effort to'obtain.
They will be handed to each lady on
