Every payer of freight knows that tbe civilized parts ol this planet will be intersected by great waterways as soon as the human race is old enough to have sense. The Pittsburg Sensation. Brown and O'Mara replied to Gourley, but Gourley seemed to have the best of tbe argument. On Friday it was reported that citizens of the city were raising a fund with which to impeach Gourley, Brown and O'Mara for allowing the laws of tbe state, and or dinances of tbe city to be violated. On Tuesday, Chief Brovrn decided to ' close all the disorderly houses in the lower part of the city, and also those whioh an noyed respectable people. Another Homestead Sensation. The arrest of Robert J. Beatty. lately of Homestead , at Louisville, last Saturday evening, revealed to the piblic the most startling development yet made known re garding the Homestead strike, nothing more or le*s than a conspiracy to poison non-onion men working at the Homestead mill, with six deaths attribnted to it and many more suspected. Capt. E. T. Breck of conn'el for the Car negie Steel Company, and who has also complete charge of the detective force of the concern whose members traced tb' plot to the planners, talked of the whole gale scheme for the poisoning of the men to a reporter who saw him at his home. He was guarded in all he said, making the statement* in deliberate tones and in a serious manner, which indicated that he was affected by the enormity of the plot Capt. Breck said: "About the first part of last September it th*t an inkling ot a plot was gath ered. The physicians employed to look after the men at the mill made the first dis covery. They had their suspicions arous ed by the sicknesses which overtook the men. It was of the nature of diarrhrea. Try as they would the doctors could not diagnose the complaint. It was accom panied by vomiting and gastric fever. The usnal remedies were non effective. It was not impossible for tbo diarrho'a to have been caused either from the food or water. There were notices posted at the water supplies all through the mill for the men not to use the liquid for drinking pur poses. This was done because some of the physicians in Homestead, who were mainly responsible for the visit of the state board of health, maintained that the impure water and food furnished the men by the company was re sponsible for the sickness. "At that time, which was about the middle of August, the complaints had not increased with such frightful rapidity. So, at the suggestion of our physicians we pro vided a full supply of water gotten in the city and examined by exports to make sure that it was chemically pure. The food of all kinds was closely scrutinized. But the cases ot sicknesses were caused neither by the food nor water. Then it was that our physicians made the startling announce ment that they suspected that poison was being used. They came to this conclusion only after they had exhausted all of the remedies which usually cure case- of di arrbfea. The sickness of the men, in ad dition to the vomiting, was accompanied always by symptoms of au irritant having been introduced into the stomach whose properties could not be detected. "We acted without the slighted delay on the suspicions ot tbe physicians. There were detectives put into the restaurants and four or five of them were used a.-, cooks in the kitchens. Tbere were day and night turns of tho co-.iks and the e confessions are sworn to. They were ob tained after we had confronted the cooks with the facts alrea.ly in our possession, gathered by the detectives. As to the plotters we can say there are included one physician and two dnggists. The doctor is a resident of Homestead, as is also one ofthe druggists. Strikers liy> ing now at Homestead, or who have left the town, members of the labor organiza tions giving sympathy to the strikers, form tbe bodv ofthe lea- ers. The name of ev eryone is known. There is no possibility ot escape for any of tbe guilty persons. Every one of tbem is under surveillance. Since we have known tbo names tbere has not been a man made a move who was not watched day or night, by one or more detectives. . "We are now gathering more evidence against the leaders and every day acid something to the chain being forged aroit d them. We think our case will be mane the stronger by a few day's waiting. We are sure none will escape. If it had not been that the man Beatty was about to leave tbe country tbo fact of the evidence would still be a secret. But Beatty bad made all arrangements to es cape. He went down the river on the steamer Nellie Hudson, now called the San Lucie, which was purchased by John H. Flager and is being taken to Florida wateni. I sent two detectives to Cincin natti, being forced into action, but tho boat went past there without stopping. The men went on then to Louisville by rail. It was known that lieatty would stop tbere, as his wife lives ia that city. Tbere,as you know.he was arrested. There is now au officor in HarrisbtUg securing requisition papers and the fugitive will be brought back immediately. Beatty was a umrnber of the Kuigbts of Labor. He was tbe intermediary between the plotters and tbe cooks. He is not a I'ittsburgher. Tbe poisou was gotten in Homestead first and afterward in New York. It was not given in the food, but was mixed in the coffee or tea, and occas ionally in tbe soups. One dose was suffi cient, unless the man receiving it had a cast-iron stomach. The direoi ions in or der to catch all of the men were that tbe drug should be administered every second or third day. Enough of tho poison was used at one time to permeate about thirty gallons of coffee. Tbere was positive directions given to the cooks by the persons directing the plot that particular atlententiou must be paid to skilled workmen. The intention was to prevent the Homestead mill from being operated, and any means to do this woro not considered too hellish, too deadly." To all questions as to tbe immediate plans of the company the captain turned a deaf ear. He refused to make any re ply to a question as to what the dotor bad discovered in tho analysis of tbe stom ach of young Glosser. He did not deny, though, that the boly bad exhumed and dissected for tbe purpose of learning some thing of tbe nature of the poison. B.iatty was brought back to l'ittsburg, Wednesday. The crime for which ho is to bo tried is the poisoning of several non-union work men at the Homestrad mills last Septem ber, and tbe original warrant against him was issued by James McMasters, a justice of tbe peace of Allegheny county,upon tbu testimony of Patrick Gallagher, who i himself implicated in the crime, and of J. H. Ford, who overheard some of the con versation of the conspirators. Gallagher's confession goes on to stale that be was employed as a cook at one of tbe restaurants upon the Cart egie mil' property aud that on same day between tbe 121 st and 24tb of August he was spoken to by Beatty in Pittsburg about putiiD? something in tbo tea or coffee i f tbe work men, tbo object being to make them sick. On tbo following day Hety,ty and him self, in company with J. M Davidson and 11. F. Dempsey, bad a conversation in re gard to procuring tbe stuff to be pu| in tbe tea «r cofTee. Croton oil was suggested, but tbe idea was Dot favorable by Gallagher or Davidson, who «d«jected on the ground that it was dangerous to Unc croton oil. Gallagher says he was told to co.no back everv day or two to see whether tbe stuil bad been procured and that ou ths 7th or Bth of September be received from Dempsey a bottle containing tbroe yellow powder.-. He was told that tbere were three doses 'and that one powder was sufficient for thirty gallons of tea or coffee. Gallagher says ho placed one of tho powders in tbe tea which was drunk bj the workmen in restaurant No. 1, and that several were taken sick and preveuted from working. Gallagher says that some time during the month of September Beatty gave him three powders, which looked liko tbo»« Dempsy bad given bim. He used them in tbe same manner and they made many workmen sick, Griffith being one of the ; number. Gallagher says be received from Beatty in money at one time and at j another # 1. J. 11. Ford testifies to having heard some conversation between the conspirators in regard to the matter. This is the sub s'ance of the te>timony taken when the warrants were sworn out. Petrolia Items.

A meeting of prominent Pittsburg wholesale lienor dealers was held last Fri day night at the office of the William H.

It is probable that aa independent distilling company will be organized with a large capita! and a new distillery erected somewhere in the West, where it will bo convenient to the grain which will be needed. Jonathan Kellar, an old farmer of Lau rence Co., was robbed Tuesday night, and afterwards tortured by the robbers, who thought he had more. Kittanning claims the champion eater. Last Saturdaj night he ate at one sitting. 42 doughnuts, and immediately ofiered to bet that ho could eat right then and there ten cans of cove oysters, remarking, inci- that ho would undertake to eat twenty cans, but he had not expected t« be challenged, and had eaten a big tur key supper. We'd like to borrow that fellow's appetite for use at some of these benefit suppers. Late developments lead to the belief that the three members of the Danna hower family, who n ere burned to death in a fire which destroyed their house at Sharpsbnrg two weeks ago, were victims of foul play. It is now believed they were murdered and the house set on fire to cover the crime. Detectives are work ing on the case, and a web of circumstantial evidence has been woven so tightly around two persons that their arrest will be made in a day or two. The Eochranton creamery, which shut down this week for the winter, made 100,- 450 pounds of buttc-r during the past sea son.
