THERE Is NO FIGHT.

The Brotherhood of Carpenters Have No
Trouble With the X. of L.
A. NJ. Swartz, special agent Of the build
ing trades, denies the report that the car
penters are about to split in fight between
the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners and
the K. of L. carpenters. Mr.. Swartz asserts
that there is not K. of L. carpenter in the
county, all of them being in the brotherhood.
Some years ago there was an assembly Of car
penters here, but it was absorbed by the
brotherhood. There are some Knights in the
latter organization, but they are men who have
worked at other trades
There are now from Is to 20 unions of the
brotherhood in Allegheny, with membership
of over 5000. Mr.. Swartz also said that p. J..
Mcguire, of the Federation of Labor, had not
sent out an order to oppose the K. of L. SO far
as the unions here know.
Charles F. Mcbride, District Organizer of the
American Federation of Labor, also denies the
report.

FATHER MOLLIKGER DOESN'T KNOW.
He Cannot Clear Up the Mystery Surround,
ing Nellie Holloway.


The following telegram was received at
THE DISPATCH office last night from Youngs-
town, o.:
A message was received from Pittsburg this
evening stating that Miss Nellie Holloway, the
young lady who disappeared from her home two
weeks ago and for whom relatives have been
searching the entire county, had been found at
the home of Father MolIinger, faith cure priest
on Troy Hill, Allegheny. Mrs. John E. Boyle,
residing here, found the girl with Father Mollin-
ger, and she gave no explanation as to her leav-
ing here. John Rock. uncle, left for, Pittsburg
tonight to bring her home.
Inasmuch as it was thought that this referred
to the girl who some time ago mysteriously
disappeared from her home, a visit was paid
Father Mollinger at his residence on Troy Hill
last night. When the reverend gentleman was
asked whether girl by the name of Nellie
Holloway had been to see him, he said:
81 cannot tell. There are every day about
500 people here who come to see me at my Office
but do not recall girl by such a name. The
fact is l never ask persons their names. have
no time for that OF course, it is possible that
she has been here, but if she has do not know
It. Her father has not been here either. 1
would be glad to help you clear up themystery
but am not able TO do it."

UNDER NEW LAWS
A Batch of Street Ordinances Resent to the
City Councils.

A Batch of Street Ordinances Resent to the
City Councils.
A special meeting Of the Committee on
Public Works was held Yesterday afternoon,
the special order of business being the consid-
Grafton Of large number of ordinances for the
improvement of streets which have been re-
ferred to Councils by the Board Of Viewers
previous to the enactment of the Morrow street
bill of May. 1889.
The new bill did not affect these ordinances,
but as they had been drawn up under the
street act of 1887 tho constitutionality of which
has been questioned, it was thought advisable,
TO prevent the possibility of trouble in the
future, to call them back and start them over
again from the committee. The action was
effected by motion of President Holiday that
the ordinances be altered to conform with the
new law and returned to Councils with the
affirmative recommendation of the committee.
