A STARTLING SUICIDE.
A Young Man, While Walking With His
Lady Friend, Fatally Shoots Himself
snd End of a Little Romance.

Young Man, While Walking With His
Lady Friend, Fatally Shoots Himself
snd End of n Little Romance.
John P. Shaffer, aged 19, assistant ticket
agent of the Pennsylvania Railroad at East
Liberty, committed suicide at 9:15 last night
on the corner of Larimer avenue and
Meadow street. 1t was another case of unre-
Quilted love, and the young lady upon whom he
showered his affections was Miss Amelia
Schilke, formerly of Great Bend, Kan, The
lady is sister of Mrs. Woods, of ALI Larin er
avenue, and also a niece of Major E. D. Wilt,
of the Grand Opera House. She was very
highly respected woman, and had received the
attentions of the suicide for some time past
The suicide, who left his Office shortly before
9o'clock, Immediately went to the residence of
Mrs. Woods, where Miss Schilke was, ana
asked her to accompany him for walk. She
at first refused, on account of the lateness of
the hour but finally assented and started out
with him. They walked together, but he
seemed very disconsolate about something, and
was very Indifferent toward her. She ques-
toned him as to the cause, and he only replied:
Il have come to bid you goodby"
Nothing further was said, but Immediately
the report of pistol startled her, and she saw
her friend falling on the sidewalk with blood
streaming from his forehead.
Screaming and startled, she made an outcry,
to which some mon in Katzmyer's drug store
answered, and into which place he was carried
and DR.. Ruch summoned. He pronounced the
wound fatal. The ball entered the right
temple, slightly above the ear, and took down
ward and diagonal course, lodging in the lower
part of the left jaw bone.
The patrol wagon was called and the young
man was removed to his home on Tenner street,
near Murtland avenue, where he cannot pos
sibly survive the horrible self-infiicted wounds.
His father is John T. Shaffer, an old employe
of the Pennsylvania Railroad. and was an ap-
plicant for the postmastershipI of East Liberty.
No reasonable cause can be assigned for such
deed on the part of young Shaffer, as he was
well liked by the company, so much SO, indeed,
that he was to assume the position as Assistant
Ticket Agent in the Union depot on next Mon
day.
What goes to show that the deed was long
premeditated If the entreaties of love were re-
jected by the young lady in question, is the fact
that he purchased bulldog revolver caliber
80 some weeks ago and one of the police Off
GERS en- the beat near the station was called in
by him about a week ago and asked to show
him his revolver. The officer handed him the
weapon, and he made some remark about the
ease it would be to kill person with it.
The family of the rash young man are pros
trate, and also Miss Schilke who witnessed
the affair She had intended leaving for her
home in Kansas on Wednesday, but it is now
feared she cannot go, on account of the sad
occurrence The young man had many
friends.

A NEW GAS COMPANY.



Messrs- Stone, Wilson and OTHERS Pay in
s250,o0O to Build Pipe Line e-An-
other Field TO be Developed.
A number of gentlemen met at the
Seventh Avenue Hotel last evening to COM
plets the organization OF natural gas COM
pny About Is were present at the meet
ing, among the number R. B. Stone, of
Pittsburg; Harry w. Wilson, Of Indiana;
Mr.. Stewart, and some others.
Mr.. John Fl. Dilks, the agent of the
Chester Pipe Company, was on hand to bid
for the pipe contract.
AS nearly as could be learned the capital
stock of the company is $3.50, 900. Ny.
Stone takes $4,000. agreeing to pay in 55 per
cent in cash at once. Some of the other gem
tlemen present took $4,000 a piece, SO that
there was not much trouble to secure the neces-
sary amount of Doodle to carry on the concern.
Mr.. Stone when asked for further details
said: ut is true the organization is completed.
and personally have no objection to making
the facts public. but some Of those interested
with me are not willing, and must obey their
wishes. Yes, it is true we intend to build
pine line, but am not at liberty to locate the
territory because we anticipate some compe-
tion and are anxious to avoid it."
Mr.. Stone declined to say anything further.
The presence of Mr.. Dilks, who built the Tide
water pipe line, led the reporters at first to be-
lieve that another refinery and pipe line was to
be built The gentlemen talked of expend1ng
Sl37. 900 for machinery, and this fact could be
explained in no other way. An attorney who IS
on the inside and knows all about the plans
of the gentlemen, denied that a refinery
and pipe line was contemplated, but that
the organization is nothing more than plain
natural gas company. Where the field Is To-
Gated or whether they will run their line into
the city or not could not be ascertained, but
the presence of Mr.. Wilson, of Indiana, would
n wi
competition with the Southwest Natural Gas

RAT ROBBERS.
An Allegheny Man Discovers Where His
Greenbacks Have Gone.

An Allegheny Man Discovers Where His
Greenbacks Have Gone.
John G. Dollman, butcher on Chestnut
street, Allegheny, has stall in the market
house of that city. On last Saturday he
missed Si0 bill from his money drawer,
and believed somebody had stolen it. Shortly
after he placed IS bill in the drawer, and in a
minutes time he discovered that this bill was
also missing That appeared to be funny to
Mr.. Dollman, as he had not left the stall and
was positive the drawer had not been opened
since he placed the money in it. Consequently,
lie at once,began a search. Pulling the drawer
out he discovered a small hole that had been
made by rats, and sticking half way through it
was his IS bill. He pulled 1t out, and found
half of it eaten away. He concluded to hunt
for the rats nest, that he was sure was there
Behind his money drawer he keeps his ice box
and the back of the drawer is flush against it
Mr.. Dollman tore away the side of the ice
box, which exposed the packing of charcoal on
the inside. Here he found a quantity of paper
money torn to bits. There was about half a
peck of it which Mr.. Dollman gathered up and
yesterday he brought it to the Custom House
in this city to see if he could not have it re.
deemed. Until Mr.. Dollman left the office the
authorities had found SIG worth of money in
small bits, and they could not tell how much
more they would find He was told he could
recover about 20 per cent of it.
Mr.. Dollman has missed money from his
drawer for the last year but thought some bows
had robbed him.

THE lMPoRED ITALIANS.

They Were Only Employed Mt Duquesne to
Save the Firm Loss of 500 Day on
Cars-An Indignation Meeting Hold.
There are no startling developments in
the Duqusne strike, beyond the fact Of the
importation yesterday of 46 Italians, who
were run into the mill yard at noon. They
were put at work unloading cars which have
been accommodating on the p, v. & C. tracks,
since the strike began. There are in the neigh
borhood of 100 cars, lying on tho sidings, loaded
with pig iron. coke, ore, etc. The railroad
company levies demurrage charge OF 81 per
car each "a hours the cars are left loaded. To
save this expense of about $IOO per day
the company hired the Italians.
When the men arrived the strikers though THE
intention was to try to put them to work in the
mill. There were about 20 of them in the
party when they were hired, but the committee
of strikers at the Fourth Avenue station per-
suaded 80 of them not to GO. 1t was reported
last night that of the 46 jumped over the
fence about dusk and started for Pittsburg.
In addition to the men who went up at noon,
8 Italians arrived on the 4:26 and negroes
on the 2:35 trains. 1t was supposed the two
latter came from the Black Diamond works,
and knew something about making steel.
The strikers held meeting last night and
indignantly discussed the Importation of the
Italians. In their objections they are backed
lepers will do nothing but breed disease in the
township" After discussing the question
letters were read from the merchants of Turtle
Creek and vicinity, who denied that any of the
strikers had been to their stores after dynamite
or any other explosive. The letters were from
the following named storekeepers: w. H.
Semens, Hunter & Cypress, William 81. Cribbs
]. NJ. Larimer, Joseph B. Hezlop, Finley Nc
Intosh and w. B. Brush.
A Committee on Finances reported they
would have 81 1000 by Thursday. The supply

on Saturday. John Gilhooly, the man who was
arrested at the instigation of his wife for non-
support, and who was taken out of the mill by
two constables, was released from Jail by order
of the Court yesterday. The strikers will try
to persuade him to go back
At 10 o'clock last night the town was as quiet
as tomb. The deputy sheriffs patrolled the
grounds. but they had nothing to do. Inside
the mill there appeared to be no life. The
whole plant was lighted up by natural gas.
At 7:25 pistol shot was heardson the side Of
the mill nearest the riXer. A number of the
men gathered around and rushed to the spot
but could see nothing.
The strikers expect a number of skilled
workmen to-day. Every train and every boat
is carefully watched from the time it leaves
Homestead until it passes beyond the mill.

out circulars to keep men away from the
place.
Warrants for the arrest of William Dunn
and John McCrory, two of the strikers, were
placed in the hands of constables yesterday.
These men were in court Saturday, and, upon
hearing the news of their conviction, quietly
walked out.

Our sale of the consolidated stocks Of
three large clothing manufacturers is a great
success. It's just as we predicted when we
said it would cause great excitement, cor.
Grant and Diamond SITS. Remember, this
large stock is being sold at 81 cents on the
dollar, and is divided into three big bar
gain lots-S10 suits, $12 suits and SIS suits.
These goods were sent to US with the under
standing that they were to be sold at once,
and we have marked the prices for speedy
sale at 81 cents on the dollar. Good cloth
ing was never sold so cheap. P. G. Q. c.,

THE BAKERS STRIKE.
In NIarvin's Factory Union Men Will Not Go
to Work With Others.

The Bakers Union, L. A. 7247, X. of L.,
held meeting last night in Knights of
Labor Hall, and decided to call all the
union cracker bakers at S. s. Marvin's factory
out on a strike. The trouble has been brewing
at that place for some time. According to the
union men, 1t is alleged that Mr.. Marvin has a
lot of non-unionists at work, and also a number
of bakers who are in arrears with their dues to
the union. A committee waited upon Mr..
Marvin last week and asked him to rectify the
matter and run union shop.
At meeting of the union held last Saturday
night the men were invited to be present, and
the union members offered the men the follow
ing alternative: The non-union employees were
to come into the assembly by paying the usual
initiation fee. and the union men were to pay
up their arrears. Timeto consider that propo-
sition was given them until last night; but, as
none of them appeared last night, the union
declared strike in the factory.
The Executive Committee of District Assem-
bly, No. 8 met afterward and indorsed the &C
ton taken by the members of Assembly 7247.
Posters advising all local assemblies in West
ern Pennsylvania, Eastern Ohio, West Vir-
ginia and Cleveland of this action will be sent
out to-day, unless some new turn of affairs
takes place.

May ]. Mayhap some Of the latter will act as
agents for a wholesaler who has license, and in
that way can dispose of the stock without di-
rect violation of the law. The auctioneer
could be called upon: but 1 doubt that any are
would naturally follow the public outcry and
sale of their goods"
The Major was also sounded on the consti-
tutional right of Judge White to deprive a
person of function of his citizenship by un-
seating him from Councilmanic chair on ac-
count Of his being an applicant for license.
He replied:
in the abstract, Judge White errs. and am
aware of no law vesting him with that power;
but when the Councilman was questioned, he
was told he could accept either alternative,
resign your seat, or lose your license The
latter was accepted, of course. THERE'S alegal
point, however, in this fact which. no doubt,
leaves something tangible to act upon when
Judge White returns and the three Judges sit
in banc to listen to arguments for rehearings."

A SENSATIONAL STORY.

Carriage Near Pond and Bloody Clothing
Cause the Alarm.
Two young ladies of the East End re-
ported to Captain Mercer and Inspector
Whitehouse last week that they had OBJ
served two men alight from carriage last
Tuesday night and carry a large bundle toward
Moody's pond, off Lincoln avenue.
The next morning some bloody clothing was
found on Lincoln avenue, and it was supposed
that a sensational story was connected with
that fact. An investigation, however, leads the
officers to believe that the men were only frog
hunting.

they often met for consultation and there was
nothing special to come up.

Patrick S. Gilmore, the leader of the IA
nous Gilmore Band, which will perform
here next week always uses piano in his
concerts, and realizing the difficulty of such
an instrument showing off to any sort of ad-
vantage beside large orchestra, Mr.. Gil
more critically examined the pianos of all
the first-class makers and decided that only
the Steinway could fill the bill. He has
therefore been using none but Steinways in
his public concerts.
