EVENING SESSION.

At half-past s the meeting was re-
sumed. Colonel Harden, professor OF
Applied Chemistry, was examined more
particularly in regard to the Cooke fund.
His evidence tended to show that the
management of the institute had attempt
ed at all times 10 carry out the spirit OF
the bequest. lie was closely questioned
without shaking the testimony first given
in the least.
The examination of Colonel Lysle,
professor OF Mathematics, concluded the
DAVIS work. His evidence was to the
same general effect as that of bis prede-
cessor, showing that there had been no
direct effort to antagonize the decrees or
desires Of the Board of Visitors. The
testimony of both witnesses was deci-
dedly favorable to General Smith.

DETECTING 10 STRIKES AND THRIVE
REASONS OF cEIMyEY-GLAss MANUFACTURED
FOR GOING TO BELGIUM.

FOR GOING TO BELGIUM.
p!ttsburg July I6 (SpeciaD. George A. Macbe'n
& Co.. chimney glass manufacturers, OF the South sides
have decided to remove their works TO Belgium. They
have the largest chimney glass house IN the United
states, and probably in the world They employ
about $50 men, and their output averages 1900 gross
of chimneys per week. Nr Macbeth tonight said:
There are two things that have been driving us
to this step The first IS the tariff With the excep-
ton OF the lead we are compelled to import all the
materials that at our works. We might Iuss
as well Import lead also, there is no difference
in the price. We shall be able to manufacture chm-
ncys Of Just as good quality in Belgium, bring them
into the United Sstcs and pay 4j per cent duty on
them all for less money than VIC can manufacture
them here. We pay out over 800 per week On tho
materials that import. The duty on all the
materials used the chimney-glass manufacture VIII
average probably 80 per cent
Another reason IS the continual trouble with the
men, In Belgium the men willing to work six days
I'm the week. Here they Will only work ten months
out of the year. Yol can ,el when they are
going on strike. 1t makes difference what orders
the firm has on hand 20 I'LL some man gets up
grievance and the thing you know your men
20 out on a strike. At the present time our works
are lying idle and the taking II easy. Wo
want to be work. and do at least fhfcequarterS
OF the men, but account OF the union not single
man darcs 20 work Nor dare we TO start up II 10
Just this condition Of affairs that has almost decided
us 10 pull UP stakes. We shall keep the headquarters
OF our firm at Pittsburg, and the work done in Bel,
GUM will be principally for the American markets
