GAS COMPANIES FIGHT.

sewickIey People Reaping the Benefit From
Hot Competition Among Their suppliers
Of the Fuel.
The fight between the Independent Ma
tural Gas Company and the Ohio Valley
Company at Sewiekley, is still going on,
and the result is that the people in Sewick-
ley are getting the gas cheaper than the
usual rate for'fuel in Allegheny county.
Mr.. d. G. Herbst, the President of the
Independent company, made yesterday af-
ternoon the following statement regarding
the trouble, saying:
The Ohio Valley people 1abored under the
idea that they were having monopoly of the
gas business in our borough, and we are Just
showing them that it cannot be done.
They sent notice to their consumers last
Weekand requested them to have their con-
tracts renewed by Saturday night. or expect to
have their gas shut of. When the people did
not pay any attention to their threat the CON-
pany shut about 100 consumers of last Sunday
night, and the rest were shut off on Monday
morning. The consequence was that Sewick-
ley was pretty cold place on Monday mora
ing, and when the ladies could not get any hot
water to do their washing they naturally were
in arms against the gas people.
we then went Immediately to work, got all
the pipe we could buy and laid it all over the
place. We are now supplying all we can until
we get more pine, and we are doing it not to
enrich the stockholders of our company, but to
accommodate the people. We have only one
well, but it is a good one, ana l think the Ohio
Valley people will have to find another field TO
get nd of their gas.
Our company supplies the people for half the
amount the Allegheny Heating Company
charged last year. We are not anxious to make
5 per cent on our invested capital. We are
satisfied with per cent, and furnish the peo-
pie the gas as a convenience.

A RATE FIXED.

The Pittsburg Railroad Coal Miners Decide
to Demand IS 1-2 Cents Per Ton for
Digging on May 4.
The railroad coal miners of the Pittsburg
district, irrespective of organization, held a
convention yesterday in knights of Labor
hall on Fifth avenue to discuss the wage
question and fix price for mining from
May to April 80. There were 80 delegates
present. representing 60 mines. The ma
iority of them belong to the National Pro-
gressive Union, some to the Knights Of
Labor and several represented mines that
are unorganized. John D. Conway pre-
sided, and Alvin c. Patterson acted as Sec
retary.
AT the morning session a committee on
resolutions was appointed, and the session
until noon was devoted to discussion of
the situation.
At the afternoon session the convention
went into a committee of the whole and
adopted the following resolutions, which
fixes the price of mining ut 761S cents.
WHEREAS. The operators and miners at the
Interstate Convention held at Columbus,
March l2l4 inclusive. 1882 failed to agree
upon a price for mining from May l, 1885, to
April 80, 1890, the cause for said disagreement
being demand by the operators for a reduc-
tion which we consider unjust and for which,
in your opinion. no good reason was given at
the Interstate Convention, nor since, and

JAY GoULD's SON.
The Secretary of the Cotton Belt Line
Passes Through the CITY.

Passes Through the City.
Edwin Gould, Secretary of the st. Louis,
Arkansas and Texas Railroad, "Cotton
Belt" line, passed through the city last
night on his way to New York. Mr.. Gould
is son of the great inancier who. although
his Christian name is Jay, he is not hay
seed by any means.
The young man did not travel as would be
expected, in special private car, but con-
tented himself with an ordinary lower berth
in one of the New York sleepers. He is
about q years Of age, with few bristles on
the side Of his face, which look as though he
were making bluff at raising side-whiskers.
He dresses very plainly, and greeted the re-
porters quite afably, and IN response TO the
reportorial chestnut, said:
81 have just been out on our road on the
annual spring inspection, and am now re-
turning to my headquarters in New York.
The railroad business in Texas and the
Southwest is very good indeed, and the in
dications are that the coming season will not
witness much of falling off. From what l
have been able to see L think the business
this summer will be quite an improvement
over last years, and will show largely in
creased earnings. Our road will not make
any improvements of note this spring. There
is general disposition on the part of rail-
road managers all over the country to keep
down expenses for awhile. We are all the
time doing something, though, in the way
of track repairs, and liking up our rolling
stock. The Cotton Belt system new num-

CAN'T HURT PITTSBURG.
MononEaheIa River Operators Are Not
Worrying Over the Blaine, Foraker,
Alger Coal Concern.

MononEaheIa River Operators Are Not
Worrying Over the Blaine, Foraker,
AIger Coal Concern.
The report published in this paper yester-
day that Blaine, Foraker and Alger had
purchased IL, 900 acres of land in Tennessee,
and I, 800 acres of it were good coal lands,
was not a surprise to operators here. They
did not know, however, that the firm COM
posed of three great men of the country in
tended to engage in the coal business. 1t
is intended to build railroad to the Ten
nessee river and float the coal down to New
Orleans, and supply the region south of the
Gulf.
Captain 1. N. Bunton, of Joseph Walton
& Co., in speaking Of the matter yesterday,
said:
They will have an advantage over the river
coal operators in the matter of transportation.
1t costs us cents bushel to send coal to New
Orleans, while they can do it probably for
cent bushel. l have not given the matter any
thought and may be mistaken. Our coal, how
ever is of superior quality and do not be-
lieve the competition from this new concern
will affect US to any great extent. under
stand they will ship to the region south of the
Gulf, and do not believe they will sell much
coal in New Orleans.
The Pittsburg and Southern Coal Company
which will supply the demand for fully year
At Cincinnati and Louisville the supply will
last for six months. There will not likely be
any mining done on the Monongahela river
until fall.
Captain W. W. O'Neil. one of the largest
river coal operators, when asked for an
opinion of the new competing coal concern
said: 'tIt don't scare me bit. 1 do
not believe they can transport coal
any cheaper than we can, and our
coal sells for cent bushel more than Ten
nessee coal. There are a number OF low
draw bridges in the Tennessee river, and
the spans are very narrow. do not believe
they can bring more than three barges down
at a time. Our mines will not likely start
up before fall, as there is an unusual supply
of coal down the river. The reports on
April showed there were over 300 boats at
New Orleans and about 80 are on their
way"
Secretary Richard Barrows, of the Coal
Exchange, said he did not know much
about the subject, but he did not believe
Tennessee coal would injure the Pittsburg
coal trade in Southern ports.

Wall OF THE FISHERMAN.
Petroleum Has Made sardines of the Climbs

Coon Are Now Ouf of Jobe

Petroleum Has Made Sardines of the ChnDs
of Moon Run-Izaak Walton and the
Coon Are Now Out of Jobs
II the oil excitement is to keep up much
longer in this section, the boys will soon be
deprived of much fishing sport. On almost
all the small rivulets of the county, oil wells
are being sunk, and where they make q
strike, the runs are soon filled with sardines.
The oil in which they are preserved, how
ever, is not olive, nor even cottonseed, but
petroleum, and the flavor is disgusting to
the uncultivated appetite.
Even Moon run, which has bubbled over
its pebbly bed since time long before the
mound-builders lived, is now brilliant with
the iridescent sheen of petroleum scum,
since oil was struck on the Clever farm. 1t
seems like PROCLAMATION, and will deprive
the boys in that section of their
supply of bait, the run being great
magazine of minnows for fishermen: 1t was
also great stream for the training of infant
Izaak Waltons.
Thirty years ago, when cent looked as
large as cartwheel to boy, he caught
clubs with a bent pin, after getting
some practice fishing in his mothers rain
barrel. Of late years the boy who
could not make the raise of a regular fish
hook, was poor indeed. Moon run has al
ways been a good stream for apprentice
anglers, as in its widest moods it would
scarce drown a 5-year-old, unless he were
too stupid to catch the friendly overhanging
umbrageousness. 1t was stream about
which poets would have raved, had the sur
rounding soil been favorable for their
growth, as its waters flowed more gently
than those of sweet Alton. Among its
green braes, and the vale in whose bosom
the bright waters meet is no sweeter than
was the sylvan solitude Of Moon run,
where the raccoon competed with the
farmers boys in the capture of crawhsh and
chubs. 1t is a favorite ground for coon
hunters, and the tracks of the procyonlator
may be found any warm day in the clay
washed up on its shores.
Whether the coon will find petroleum
sardines to its taste remains to be seen.
Should they prove unpalatable another of
Allegheny county's industries will be swept
away, along with that of the kindling wood
manufacturer.

MURDER AND SUICIDE.
Domestic Troubles Lead Peter Dietz to Kill
His Child and then Cut His Own Throat
All to Spite His Wife.

Domestic Troubles Lead Peter Dietx to Kill
His Child and then Cut His Own Throat
All to Spite His Wife.
Peter G. ,Dietz, who lived on Craig street,
Oakland. cut the throat of his 3-year-old
boy yesterday morning, and then killed
himself in the same manner. The bodies
were found an hour or two later by Alder
man Carlisle and his constable. They had
forced the door of the house open to arrest
DietZ.
1t appears that owing to domestic troubles
Dietz and his wife have not lived together
for some time past. His wife Lena has been
employed as a domestic at Mrs. Colonel
Ewing's residence. Diets tried to get her
to return to him. She refused. He then
wrote her such threatening letters that she
feared for her life. He went to her father s
home on Wednesday, and after threatening
his wife personally kidnapped one of her
children, taking it home with him. He
then swore he would kill the whole family
unless Lena returned to live with him.
The woman sued her husband for surety
of the peace, before Alderman Carlisle.
That was on Wednesday. The warrant was
not served until yesterday. Some people
think the tragedy might have been averted
if Dietz had been arrested promptly.
Mrs. Dietz has four other children. The
family has only been in this country short
time, coming from Germany.

THE PENNSY INSPECTORS.
President Roberts and Party VIII Leave for
Home To-day.

Home To-day.
The officials of the Pennsylvania lines
who are in the city on their annual spring
inspection tour, will leave for home about
7:30 o'clock this morning. They will board
their special train, and go on the Pittsburg,
Virginia and Charleston road to Red Stone
Junction. They will then go over the South
west branch to Greensburg, and from that
point home via the main line.
Yesterday they put in the day about the
city. They visited the site of the Ohio
Connecting Railroad Company's bridge at
Neville station. They also went up the
West Penn road as far as Sharpsburg, and
returned to the city about z o'clock.
On the West Penn, the matter of laying
four tracks came up for discussion, and the
President gave orders about continuing the
Cork. 1t is the intention to make four
track road from Allegheny City to Sharps-
burg. AZ present they only extend as far
east as Pine creek. The movement of all
through main line freight over the West
Penn from Allegheny to Blairsville, makes
it necessary to have two tracks for the ex-
elusive use of freight trains.

AN OLD LANDMARK BURNED.
The GlenwOOd Park Hotel Destroyed by
Fire Last Evening. -

The GlenwoOd Park Hotel Destroyed by
Fire Last Evening. -
The old Glenwood Park Hotel, one of
the Oldest buildings in that part of the city,
located at the corner of Second avenue and
Renova street, was completely destroyed by
fire last night. A deficiency of water sup
ply had much to do with the entire de-
struction of the building. The blaze started
from defective flue about 7:2O o'clock.
The building was two-story frame, con-
tanning sc rooms, and covering space 10Ox
100 feet. Itwas built for a summer hotel
in 1852, but was subsequently bought by the
Catholic Church and became St. Michael's
Seminary. The school was continued until
shortly after the war broke out, when it was
given up. 1t then became monastery for
few years, after which it was reopened as
hotel by William Nash. He only re-
mained in it for year when it was taken
in charge by T. c. Nunson, the present pro-
prietor. The property is still owned by the
Catholic Church, being held, it is said, in
the name of Bishop Tuigg. The building is
a complete wreck. 1t was valued at $4,000
and was partially insured.
