Two Well-known Lawyers
of Allegheny Courts Die
Special to The Telegraph
Pittsburgh, Jan. 10. —J. Scott Fer
guson and John Marron, two of the
best known criminal lawyers in West
ern Pennsylvania, died yesterday with
in two hours of each other. Mr. Fer
guson, who died of acute indigestion,
was 72 years old. Mr. Marron, who
died of pneumonia, was 59.
Either Mr. Ferguson or Mr. Marron,
or both, have been in the thick of the
light in almost every big criminal case
tried in the Allegheny courts in the
i last twenty years. Both were deter-
I mined, resourceful and effective legal
champions.
Each leaves behind a record of bril
liantly won court battles and the repu
tation of an indomitable fighter. Both
participated in the trials of the so
called "Allegheny graft cases." and
both represented Augustus Hartje, Jr.,
I in his divorce suit.
Ferguson was born in Pittsburgh,
January 24, 1842. He received his
early education in the Pittsburgh
| schools. He entered the office of Hus
: sey, Wells & Co., a large steel manu
facturing concern, and while with that
I company studied law.
| Attorney Marron had practiced law
since 1875.
Increase in Wages For
Firemen and Policemen
i Boston, Mass., Jan 10.—Mayor Fitz
gerald, last night announced an ad
| vance in wages for flrement and po
llicemen, affecting 2,600 men. It was
the second increase granted by the
mayor within two years and was due
"he said, to the greater cost of living
and to the fact that although wages of
carpenters, bricklayers agid painters
; have been almost doubled within 25
■ years, the policemen and firemen, not
withstanding the danger and difficulty
: of their work, have received Increases
of only i 6.7 per cent, within the pe
! riod: The new schedule which be-
! conies effective Jan. 16 will add from
SIO,O to S2OO to the yearly pay of each
man.
Friedmann Patient
Dies in Pittsburgh
Special to The Telegraph
Pittsburgh, Jan. 10. Mrs. Mary
Clara Heid, wifa of Mr. Austin Heid,
who went to Germany almost one year
ago to obtain cultures of the then fa
mous'turtle seruin of Dr. K. F. Fried- i
mann, the German scientist, died yes-!
terday. Mr. Heid brought enough of'
the seruin to Pittsburgh to treat forty j
persons. The first trial was made upon j
his wife. J
Mrs. Heid underwent the regular!
course of treatment for four weeks, i
and Dr. Heid said there had been no j
improvement in her condition.
When Dr. Heid first learned of Dr.!
Friedmann's cure he sold his automo-1
bile to obtain funds enough to defray!
the expenses of travel, in the hope!
that ho could induce Dr. Friedmann to j
give to him some of the serum. It}
was one year ago yesterday that he left j
Pittsburgh for Germany. He returned I
February 5, 1913. '
Dr. Heid was asked if the serum
had done his wife good, and he an
swered: "If it had she woukl not be
dead."

' Murderer, Pardoned,
Refuses to Leave Jail'
By Associated Press
Baltimore, Jan. 10. —Pardoned by
Governor Goldsborough December 21 i
last, after serving 15 years, Matthew .
Jones, a prisoner in the Maryland pen- J
j itentiarv, refuses to leave. Although j
|he is given absolute freedom about
! the institution and permitted to go
I out when he chooses, he always comes |
I back.
I He has visited practically every mov
ing picture show In the neighborhood
jof the penitentiary. With his own
i money—about 170—rturned over to
| him when his pardon was granted, he
jls free to do what ho chooses. But
! the outside world seems uninviting.
| He doesn't know what to do nor where
I to go.
j "I'll be back," he always informs
the authorities when he goes out for
| his daily visits to the "movies." He
still serves as a trusty.
Jones was convicted of murder in
the second degree.
Resumption of Buying
Expected This Month
I While there has been an increase In
| purchases of finished steel during the
I last, two weeks, values have been sac
rificed, and whether current quota
tions will continue is open to debate.
With the Increased cost of produc
tion taken into consideration steel
prices now are at as Jow a basis as
during the price war 1911 and the
depression of 1904 and 1908.
Manufacturers state that one or two
months must elapse before they will
bo able to furnish definite opinions on
the trend of'the market.
Because of the light buying; (luring
November and December, the closing
of mills and accumulations of orders,
1 It is expected that January will wll
| ness a resumption of buying.
