Tho goods weie confiscated and ic

POLICE MAGISTRATES.
It I Proposed to Amend the Al-
woith Ordinance so ns to Glvo
Ono the Bulk of tho Woilt.
The ordinance introduced 0111 Thins
day night by Common Councilman II.
.S. Alwoith, establishing police magis
terial districts and creating the olllces
of live police magistrates, will un
doubtedly be very much amended. It
Is known that If It Is passed In Its
pietcnt form it will not meet with the
approval of Itecorder Molr.
It Is pioposed to amend the- oull
nance so as to provldo tor an cntlte
icaiiangdiieiit of tho districts. The
oidlnance in Its piesent fotm pi o Ides
for the following dlstilcts:

It Is held that tho ceutial pail of
the city, In which tho laigcst number
and most Impoitant nuesta me made,
should be all Included In one dlstilct.
It Is pioposed to include In such dls
tilct the Pourtocnth, eighth, Sl
Uenth and Ninth wni.H nnd to ih.ivo
the jiitsldlng mmlsti.ite hold ootnt lu
the Municipal building. Inasmuch as
this maglstiatc would issue all the
w.uiauts which the police would ie
iiulie for special nuests, It Is believed
by those who favor amending1 the 01
dlrr.nce, that his salaiy should be
lived at $1,000 a jear
Mr. Alwoith's oidlnance fles a unl
fonu salaiy of ?;00 for each of the
live maglstiates. The Flist, Kefond
Thlicl nnd Thliteenth wauls would bo
left, accoidlng to this plan, tho same
ns in the oiiglnal oidlnance, com
pilslng ono dlstilct, and tho salaiy ot
the nuglnti.ite would be llxed at "0J.
The AVtst Scianton district is plan
ned to include thu Pom th, Plfth,
Twcnty-llrst, SKth, eighteenth and
rittcenth watds, and to tl the magls
tinte's salaiy at $100 u year.
The seventh, Seventeenth nnd Tenth
vnids would be included in a fotiith
olstilet. and tho Illevcnth, Tnelttli,
N'lneleenth nnd Twentieth watds in a.
Jlfth. It Is proposed to make the sal
ary of the magistrates of these dis
tricts $2o0 each per year, on account of
the eomp.uatlvely small number of ai
lests made In these pints of the city.
With the salaiy of ono nuigistiato to
be llcd nt $1,000 ii jeai, of two nt $100
ti j far, and of the two ctheis at t.T.O
a. c,u tho total nppiopilatlon would
need to be only $,300. the same as.
piovlded by the Alwoith oidlnance.
In Allegheny, while theio aie five
police magistiatt-s, as piovlded by law,
only one of them does any regular
woik. Ho bus judicial snpei vision
over a dlstilct conipilslng the main
poitlou of the city, and lecelves a.
balmy of $i,-,0i) a em The dlstilcts
of the othn m.iRlsti.ites comprise onlv
one ot two Minds each, and these
m.iplstiates irceive only $30 a vcar.

One of the leading olllclals ot tho

"At any late, we can do nothing on

tendent Davis fiom the South. We ate
picnnred to do the lair thing lis our

ways done this. Dvcellent pi oof of my
asset tion Is the fact that our girls weio
the last ones to go out, and then onlv
struck, I think, out of sympathy with
the pmploscs of the other mills."
The stilkeis deny that they ask the
same wages as the P.iteison mill gills,
and dec laic Hint this clause of the
resolutions passed hy the executive
committee was n misstatement. A
