Pig0tt's DiarV,

There is reason to believe that, in
addition to diary covering one Of the
most eventful periods of the f0rger Pi
gott's life, several interesting docu-
ments in the shape of letters and memo.
randa belonging to him have found
their way into the possession Of Messrs.
Lewis and Lewis, the solicitors for Mr..
Parnell and the Irish members. Great
reticence is observed a to the contents
of these documents which will, it is de-
clared, lead to further sensations in the
Commission Court; but the report is
current that several prominent public
men, whose names have not hitherto
been mentioned in connection with the
case, are now proved to have had CORE.
spondence with Pigott. Some of the
letters are said to be of little value for
the purposes of the Parnell defense, in
asmuch as they relate solely to applica-
tions for pecuniary assistance; but the
diary and memoranda are, if the report
is to be credited, full of material details,
and it is stated that new light will be
thrown upon the negotiations leading
up to the production Of the forged let
ters. With regard to the mode in which
the diary and letters were obtained, the
story is that although the Natlonalists
were aware of their existence, it was
some time before access could be OBJ
tained to the person in charge OF them
owing to the strict watch kept by the
police. AT last, however, by a cieverly
devised stratagem, the outposts were
passed, and this done, the negotiations
were soon brought to successful issue.
1t is stated that, in addition to two con-
stables posted outside the house and one
at the foot Of the avenue, third
w,A.ched the premises from the window
OF an adjoining building, and two
others were actually stationed inside
the house. Nevertheless, the agent
succeeded in making his exit with the
coveted doc .lments unsupported.

WIGGINS WEATHER.

An Unprecedented Low Barometer-Fears
of Another Cyclone Alinyed.
The rather obstreperous, threatening ap-
pearance Of the weather last evening created
a fear of another cyclone as the wind
whistled in manner most uncomfortable
and suggestive.
A hasty visit to the den of Sergeant Stew
art showed that things had been somewhat
alarming, but the fear of high wind had
somewhat lessened.
1t will be remembered that the lowest
barometer ever recorded in this city was
that just preceding the cyclone, when it
fell to 29.0So. At o'clock yesterday, how
ever, the alarming and unprecedented fig
ures of 5000 were reached. A bulletin
was Immediately sent to headquarters at
Washington, and an answer received that
no especial alarm need be felt, as the indi-
cations were for merely a medium high
west wind, with a sudden change of tenn
perature.
At 725 P. M. the wind was blowing at
the rate of 2S miles per hour, and at it
had fallen to 1S and declining. At in the
afternoon the temperature was 1870, and
at it had suddenly fallen to $40, with
fair prospects of reaching 200 before morn
ing. This sudden change in wind and
temperature, Mr.. Stewart thought, ex-
planned the remarkable actions of the
barometer in falling from 90 43o at 8 A. NJ.
to the strange depth of 5000 at P. M.

A STORY WITH A MORAL.
Basket With Pockeibook and Tramp
With Pencil.


A good joke on one of the officials of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad is going the
rounds of the railway offices Of the city.
The official in question lives out the line at
a small place where thereis no station agent.
Several days ago he came to town in the
morning, and after getting market basket
filled with provisions put it on a train and
sent it to its place of destination. Ee forgot
to tell his family what train he would send
the basket on, and as result there was no
person at the small platform to receive the
basket.
When the train arrived at the place the
baggage master, as per custom, put the
basket of, and the train went on, leaving
the hamper on the platform.
After the train had movedout of sight a
tramp came sauntering along in the opposite
direction, and, thinking it was special dis
Pensation from Providence, proceeded to do
business with the basket. Taking off the
lid, he saw note signed by the official, to
the effect that the "pocketbook was under
the meat" The tramp, after sampling sew
eral articles of produce, removed the meat
and took out the pocketbook. The latter he
conveyed to one of his own pockets, and
then replaced the articles very carefully in
the basket. The tramp wrote on the bottom
of the note that he had immediate use for
money, and the meat hadn't, so he would
borrow it for the time being. The pocket
book contained only between 81 and S5 and
family railroad ticket.

vices-A Peculiar Error In His Name
He Remains I'm His Cell.
By some strange error the newspapers,
throughout the entire court proceeding,
have not been able to agree upon the name
of the murderer, some calling him Dimmy"
and others DENNY" On his recommit-
tai to Jail, however, as convicted muir
derer he is entered upon the docket as Joe
Dimming, and this is said to be his right
name.
A wonderful change has come over the
man since his awful verdict was received.
He went from the Jail to the court lightly
and carelessly, but he returned probably
the most frightened and abject man in the
world.
His removal also from the upper to one
Of the lower tiers in the Jail has not in
creased his confidence, as he looks upon cell
No. 2 as his death cell. The removal, how
ever, was merely made in order that he
would be more closely under the eye Of the
officials in case he should attempt harm to
himself, but this is hardly likely as long as
he hopes of a second trial or q Communication
Of sentence. Besides that, the case is an ex-
traordinary one indeed where negro COM
mits suicide.
He is very nervous, and undoubtedly
almost frightened out OF his wits, though it is
said he possesses a keen, low cunning that
is almost foxy.
Dimming refused to attend church SER
vices in the Jail yesterday, though he would
have had three bloody companions in crime
to sulk alone in his cell. with not word to
say to anyone.

UNITY OF ACTION.
Growth of Feeling in Temperance Circles

Growth of Feeling in Temperance Circles
Thnt All Must Combine.
In Difference to the growing interest in the
methods to be employed in pushing the Con-
stitutional amendment question, Mr..
Andrew Bryce, a member of the Prohibi-
ton Executive Committee, was asked if
there were anything new in that quarter.
He said that the great temperance organi-
zations of the country we're rapidly COM
bining in order to concentrate their efforts
upon the question. Of these organizations
the National Temperance Society and the
National w. G. T. o. had recently volun-
teered their aid to ali the State societies to
fight their one toe The only condition they
asked in the amalgamation was that there
be entire unity Of action. Measures will
speedily be taken by which the national
and State forces may combine to the best
advantage.
He said a convention will soon be held
where delegates from all societies and Or
ganizations will meet, irrespective of class
or religious sect, to form plan for united
action and to take entire charge of the cam
paign they see ahead. The convention of
the Prohibition party, to be held in Harris
burg on February 5, will certainly result in
delegates being appointed for united con-
vention. and in all probability the meeting
at Harrisburg will result in some important
measures being formulated to aid this pro-
posed union. Some of the churches have
also taken step toward unity, and he hoped
and expected that all churches would join
in the movement.

THERE'S MANY A SLIP.
How Two Pittsburg Coke Men and Young
Fellow Missed a Fortune.

How Two Pittsburg Coke Men and a Young
Fellow Missed n Fortune.
An illustration of how one man misses it,
and another hits it, is recalled by the his
tory of the oil lands recently purchased by
a Pittsburger in the Taylorstown district
for $50,
1t seems young fellow of this town was
down in that district when the Taylorstown
field was in its infancy. He Knocked
about for year or so and somehow managed
to acquire good interest in 800 acres of
Taylorstown land right on the line OF the
new oil belt
AS well was to be drilled at once on the
land forfeited, he came to this city and re-
ceived promise from two well-known coke
capitalists that they would take hold and
drill the well. The two gentlemen fooled
and fumbled around, consulted the Sex
pert" and hesitated and were lost. The
time of leasehold expired, the disguised
young man relinquished his title to the land
and it fell into other hands.
But two weeks ago 400 acres of the land
were sold for $500 and the other half
can't be purchased at all. Two dignifed
gentlemen are dividing the time between
kicking themselves and their "expert
scout" who reported uufavorably on the
land, and the unfortunate young man has
drifted awav, no one knows or cares whittier,
though perhaps to hit it next time.

Its Organization Perfected, and New
Building Soon TO be Erected.
The Young Mems Catholic Club, of St.
James Church, West End, completed its
organization yesterday afternoon by the
election of the following named officers:

dent, James O'Toole; Recording Secretary.
Thomas O'Shaughnessey; Financial Secretary,
Timothy Kelly; Treasurer, James Finn; Board
Of Trustees, William B. johnson, Thomas j.

Richard Connolly.
The first steps at actual organization were
taken a week ago last Sunday, when tenn
porary chairman was appointed, and the
project assumed definite form. The society
commences with " charter members. The
object of the club is to furnish a place OF
amusement and pleasure coupled with re-
ligious work similar to the Young Men, s
Christian Association. They already have
in view the purchase or lease of piece Of
ground on which to build, as soon as practi-
cable, clubhouse, with library, gym
nasium, baths, etc., the different committees
being now at work to this end.
The club will hold meeting in the base
ment of the parochial school building next
Wednesday evening, and begin practice at

prime movers in the club formation, and ex-
presses desire to see it grow and become
very useful.

NAY MAKE COTTON TIES.
Postmaster Larkin Will Likely Revive nm
Old PitrsburE Industry - The Tariff
Good Thing for One Good Democrat.

Postmaster Larkin VIII Likely Revive m
Old Pittsburg Industry - The Tariff n
Good Thing for One Good Democrat.
The manufacture of hoop iron and cotton
ties, which was once one of the leading in
dustries of this section, will likely be re-
vived. This industry was killei several
years ago when the duty on hoop iron was
cut of. Cotton ties can be brought into this
country cheaper than they can be made
here, as the freight is nominal, as they are
used as ballast.
About two years ago James Seymour, a
boss roller at Lindsay & McCutcheon's
mill, invented machine for the manufact-
ure ofhoop iron that greatly lessened the cost
of production. A full description was given
in this paper at the time. There was talk
of revival of the cotton tie industry here,
and Mr.. Seymour received a number of
very fattering offers for his invention.
Satisfactory terms could not be agreed
upon, as the firms who bid for it wanted
to buy it outright while the inventor in
sisted on a royalty and the privilege of SELL
ing the right to use the machine to any
manufacturer. Since that time nothing has
been done, but the prospects for the passage
Of the Senate tariff bill, which imposes a
duty on hoop iron, seem to be good, and this
will undoubtedly shut out the foreign iron.
The fact that leading Democrat in this
city, namely, Postmaster John Larkin, is
seriously considering the advisability of en-
gaging in the manufacture of hoop iron and
cotton ties, is an indication that the bill
will be passed.
Last week Mr.. Larkin sent for Mr.. Sey-
mour and opened negotiations for the pur-
chase of his patent but nothing definite has
yet been done.
When a DISPATCH reporter saw Mr.
Seymour he admitted that be was negotiat-
ing with Mr.. Larkin, but declined to men
tion the amount offered or any of the details
until sale is made. He SAYS he has re-
ceived several offers for his invention, one
firm agreeing to pay him $4,000 and a roy
atty if the Senate tariff bill is passed

JOLLY GERMANS.

Pleasant Concert at the Forbes Street
Central Turner Hall.
The Central Turner Hall on Forbes street
was crowded last evening with the best
German society Of the two cities, listening
to musical entertainment which, like all
the verein's entertainments, was very enjoy
able. 1t began at about o'clock. All
who were not members of the verein or did
not belong to members family were e1-
cluded.
The programme, although of strictly
musical nature, ran slightly toward light
opera and consisted of about dozen num-
bers. First came several solos and duets,
rendered by Messrs. Adrian and Krove
These were followed by several well-ren-
dered selections on various musical instru-
ments. Finally, quartet selection rendered
by Messrs. Krove, Adrian, Frank Becker
and Joseph Kramer, concluded an evening
which had been very pleasantly spent by all
present.
These entertainments are given nearly
every Sunday evening, and are generally,
as in this instance, of an informal character.
Tonight a German drama will be pro-
duced at the verein's hall.

WHEN DOCTORS DISAGREE.

/ Singing Comments From the Homeopaths
Upon the Proposed State Board of Ii-
ccnsers and Examiners.
The homeopathic physicians of the State
are up in arms against their brethren, the
allopaths. The question at stake is the
passage of the bill now before the Legisla-
ture, which provides for the appointment of
a State Board of Licensers and Examiners,
whose duty it shall be to examine and
license those who desire to practice medi-
cine.
The opposition to the bill is based on the
fact that, as it now stands, it does not pro-
vide for equable representation for the
homeopaths and allopaths. Of the former
there are nearly 600 in the State, and they
them what they demand the bill cannot and
will not be passed.
They claim that an allopathic board is not
capable of examining homeopath, as there
are manv radical differences in their prin-
ciples. DR.. j. C. Burgher, a resident home
opath, was interviewed by DISPATCH re-
porter, and said:
ut would be a gross injustice to allow this
bill to pass as it is, for the measure might De
used against us so as to shu: us out from prac-
tice entirely. am certainly in favor of board
such as proposed for il will be further ben
eft to the public. We do not need it as badly
now as we did some years ago, when the col
leges turned out men whose education was In
ferior TO that of the present day."
Are there such boards in other States"
"Yes; to nv knowledge these exist in several
States, and our school is represented on every
one 1t is not more than fair that here in Penn
sylvania, containing nearly 600 homeopaths, we
should not he represented. Then again, there
are the electrics. who claim to take the good
parts of both homeopathic and allopathic prin-
ciples. These should also be represented" .
DR.. McClelland, of Penn avenue, also
homeopath, said to a reporter: "This is the
same old trick of the allopaths. They
have tried it in several other States, not
very long ago in Virginia, but it has always
fallen through, and think it has very
slim chance of success in this State"
DR.. NJ. C. Blystone, of the Homeopathic
Hospital, seemed to favor a board, provided
that his school of medicine was represented.
He said: There is no doubt but that this
bill will not be passed. 1t will be antagon-
lied by the different county organizations Of
the homeopaths and also by the State Or
ganization. We must have representation
on any such body, which, with the above
proviso, would be beneficial"
