A Hackman Fined for Extortion --The
Ordinance Relating to Rackmen to be
- .Thiforyed. "
Yesterday Jackson M'Phersoia, a young
man from up the Allegheny Valley Rail
road, made information before the Mayor
charging John Hancock, a hackman,
with extortion. He arrived in the city
on his way to St. Louis, Missouri, Thurs
day evening, and it appears was informed
by John that the Union Depot was some
distance away, and Was induced by him
to take a cab and ride over. John fur
nished the vehicle and conveyed the boy
and his baggage, a small vallSe, to the
Union. Depot, only two egnates distant,
for which service he charged McPher
son four dollars and twentyifive cents.
The young man objected to pay
ing the amount; but John; who_ has
been in the business Bowel time and
understands' it, knowing the young
man to be verdant, insisted upon
payment and refused to give up the
paggage until the bill was paid. McFer
son, in order to get his baggage, paid the
bill, but instead of leading on the next
train remained, and made information
as stated. Hancock was arrested and
brought before the Mayor, who fined him
ten dollars and costs for a violation of_
the ordinance regulating the rates to be
charged for carrying paasengers and bag
gage within the city limits.. e - o
Thrdi
nance fixes the iates for each passenger
at fifty cents and for each trunk twenty
five cents,- and further provides that all
hacks, carriages, omnibusses and other
vehicles used, in conveying passengers
for pay to and from railroad depots,
steamboats, hotels, dwellings, dtc., shall
keep a copy of the ordinance plainly
Printed, together with the number of the
vehicle, posted or:hung up in a conspicu
ous place in said vehicle.
It is gratifying to know that this ordi
nance, which has been a dead letter since
its passage over a year ago, is to be en
forced. It is the only means of protect
ing 'strangers from the impositions of
these land sharks who are over on the
look out for some one to rob.
The ordinance bas been printed in neat
form on card board and copies of it may
,be obtained at the Treasurer's office, and
it'is the intention of the Mayor to pun
ish to the full extent of the law every
violation of it. All persons engaged in
the business of transporting passengers
will, if they are wise, procure a copy
a n n c d e h . ave it , placed in their vehicle at
o
The rates allowed by the city are suffi
cient compensation for the labor per
formed, at least within the limits of the
old city, and 1n oases where the hack
man thinks they are not sufficient, he is
not compelled to take the passenger.
It is the duty of every police officer to
return any and every person who.' he
knows to be violating this law, as much
as it Is his duty to arrest drunken and dis
orderly persons, and the Mayor should
so instruct them.
The Drowned Men—Additional Portico.
MI
The following additional particulars
relative to - the unfortunate occurrence on
the Monongahela river, between Mor
gantown and Geneva, an account of
which we pnblished on the 27th ult., we
clip from the Waynesburg Messenger of
the 3d inst.: • "
"On Friday night, the 19th ult., Mr.
Johnson living at the mouth of Dunk.
ard,in t his county, heard some'persons
passing down the river in - a skiff. One
asked 'What stream is that?' and another
answered 'That is Dunkard. Creek.' A
short distance below this point is the
riffle in the river, with a schute about
the:middle of the stream. In the mid
dle of this schute is an, ugly snag, which
it is now believed, beyond doubt, upset
the fated skiff and threw the doomed
men into the water. A Mrs. Thomp
son; living on the hill opposite the
above named snag, was on the porch
and heard the voices of several men,
apparently in distress, in the direction of
the point where the accident is supposed
to have occurred. Her husband was
from home, and she started to go to the
aid of the sufferers, but her little boy
told her not to go, as it was only some
drunken fellows, wanting to fool or
scare the people in the neighborhood.
The number of the voices seemed to
grow less. Another lady, Mrs. Chisler,
liv i ing half a mile further down (who
was Ws° alone,) asserts that she heard
splashing in'the water, and the voices of
two_persons, as they.seemed to be pass
ing slowly down the stream, evidently
in great terror or distress; one of these
yoices seemed feeble or exhausted, while
the other was strong and encouraging;
avif a young, strong man were striving
to aid an aged and feeble one. It is now
supposed that these two persons were
still clinging to the upturned skiff, as it
floated down the current. After they
had loaned the residence of the listner a
few hundred yards all became still, and
nothing, more was heard from the unfor
tunate men."
A Long Journey.
A woman appeared before Mayor Drum '
yesterday morning, who gave her name
.
as Margaret Toney, and stated that she
was on her way to join her relatives In
. ,
Ohio. e said she formerly lived in
Ohio. Bil was married, and moved with her
husband to -Conneautville, Crawford
county, Pennsylvania. A year or so
atior the removal to Conneautville her
husband died, leaving her and a child in
d stitutedraumstances. She determined

Severe Aceidents—Plartow Escape.
YesterdaY afternoon about five o'clock
, ,
Mr. Walter Warden, Assistant Yak&
master at the Cleveland Railr+id Freight
Depot, Pittsburgh, met with s severe ac
cident in Allegheny while On his way
home from work. -He got on a freight
train to ride over from the yard to Alle
gheny, and when the Federal street cross-,
ingwas reached he attempted to jump
off. By some means, however, he made
a miscalculation in jumping, and instead
of alighting with both feet on the ground,
he fell heavily upon the cobble stone
pavement, with one leg under him,
which was broken below the knee by the
force of the fall. Several persons in-the
vicinity ran to his assistance and carried,
him lento the passenger depot, where Dr.
Huselton, who had been summoned, at
tendixl his 'injuries. Besides breaking
his leg, be received other severe bruises
upon different parts of his body, none or
will h, however, are of a serious charac
ter. After receiving medical attention,
he was conveyed to his residence In the
Second ward, Allegheny.
About an hour after theinjury to Mr.
Warden, an accident, somewhat similar
in character, but likely to prove more
serious in results, happened at the same
place. Jhonny Fisher, a lad about thir
teen years of age, jumped upon a freight
train which was moving out of the yard
alongside of the. Federal Street Station.
Falling to secure a permanent position
on the platform of the car, while passing
through the gateway his back struck
against the post, and he was knocked off
to the ground. In falling, one foot qaught
in a ring bolt in the car. and he was
dragged, lying on his back. half way
across the street before he succeeded in
extricating himself from the perilous
position. As soon as the foot be
came released from the bolt itdroppad
right under one of the ear Wheels.
which passed over and crushed it in a
terrible manner. The boy was Picked
up by the watchman on duty at the gate
and carried into the, station, when the
services of Dr. Hu.selton were again pro
cured. The foot was found to be very
badly smashed; but the Doctor thought
he might, with care, be able to Rive it.
The boy was also severely bruised upon
the back and shoulders by the Dill, but
these Injuries are not considered dan
geintui. After his wounds had been
dressed he was removed to his homel at
Spring Garden, Seventh ward, Alle
gheny.
Scene on Fifth Avenue
Yesterday afternoon the foot p= vement
at the lower end of Fifth aye •ne was
very much obstructed by a number of
large bales of foreign merchandise,
which a certain carpet house hid been
receiving. The almost daily acCumula
tion of goods in front of this house for
the last two weeks would lead the casual
observer to suppose a flagrant violation
of a city ordinance relative to the 'ob
struction of pavements. Whilst that is
a matter that the police will have to
to, we would call the attenti on of
the public to that which is of greater tu
portance, the commendable spirit of en
terprise involved. The bales referred to
contained a number of pieces of new Pat
terns of Brussels carpet from a leading
European manufacturer, which the Im.
porters, Messrs. Oliver hiTlintock & Co.,
are confident are the first received in
this country. It is' the de/ de °elms of
the best European designer, and is in the
most exquisite and artistic combination
of colors, with a bordering and fug
made to match. It is prononnaugbyl. ll :te
experienced to be the most beauti I
Production yet brought from the_carPet
loom.
I - The Messrs. M'Clintock & CO. Inform
us that they will cheerfully show it and
the numerous other new styles of carpets
to the interested and curious at their
spacious warorooms, No. 23 Fifth avenue.

The cigar known as the " Red Seal"
has within a few months past •beeome
unusually popular with all lovers' of the
weed, and in consequence of the great
demand for that brand, many unsornpu

of a spurious article, being the brand
which they palm off on their customers.

"Red Seal:,
Pleasant Occasion.
Iron City College,
The Iron City College of this city, so
well and favorably Idown, both at home
and abroad, is one of the est i ablished in
stitutions of Pittsburgh which ' enjoys a
national fame and reputation. It has
now been in continued and successful
operation some fifteen years, and its pat
-renege coming from all parts of the
Union, composed of all ages, from boys
of sixteen to men of forty years of age,
including not only young men from the
farm, the 'workshops and the schools,
but gentlemen of mature age, many of
them the heads of large business houses,
perhaps surpasses that of any other com
mercial Institution in the country. Many
of our most successful merchants, bank
ers and business men took their first
steps here, and de not hesitate to attrib
ute their prosperity, in no small degree,
to the valuable lessons learned, and care
ful instruction received at the College.
Its present high standing, in many res
pects an enviable one, the result not of
one but of many caused, is attributable
in no small degree to the excellence of_
its course of study and system of in
struction, which secure to its• students
not only all the advantages of a thor
ough and comprehensive knowledge of
the theory, but such a familiarity with
the practical details of business•as to in
sure proficiency in the branches taught.
Further, the skill and acknoWledged
ability of the Principals, Messrs. J. C.
Smith, A. M., author 'of the National
Accountant, and A. Cowley. author of
Cowley's System of Practical Penman
ship, both ,teachers of long experience,
and alike distinguished in their respec
tive departments of instruction, have
contributed not a little to its fame. An
other circumstance, and on& which has
tended greatly to its popularity is, that
its managers are careful not to hold out
inducements which cannot be realized;
they do not propose to accomplish the
labor of months in so many days, but
give their pupils to understand that
merit alone IS the passport to positions
of responsibility, and trust. The conse
quence is asurkerior class of g,raduates to
those issuing from schools which purport
to be able to impart to inexperienced
youth in the short space of four or five
weeks a complete knowledge of mercan
tile science and practice.
TO persons desirous of acquiring a thor
ough business education, we can safely
say that a school with ntter
more accomplished and devoted instruc
tors than the Iron City College, is not to
be found. •

A Neat 'Table.
To ensure neatness in the appointments
of the household table, one of the most
important requisites is that of a proper
supply and choice of Qaeensware. So
well is this fact known that good house
wives would rather pay , almost two.
prices than-purchase inferior articles. •
This, however, is rendered altogether
unnecessary now, as the goods manufac- •
tured at the Keystone Pottery are fully
equal to the demands of the times, and
are sold at prices which place them with
in
the reach of all. Any of our readers
in need of articles of Queensware would
do well to call at No. 563 Liberty street
and test the truth of our observations by
an examination of the stook on hand.'
