John Costello, the Pittsburg member of
the new General Executive Board of the
knights of Labor, arriveds in the city
Yesterday from the West. Iie had gone to
Indiana to look after the orders interest in
some coal property. Mr.. Costello was seen
by a representative Of this paper yesterday
and said: .....

coal land that the order owns and zoo acres
that we have leased at Conneusburg, Ind. This
land contains the best quality of coal in the
country and will not all be mined for over 20
years. We have the property leased to CO.

Mr. W. H. Bailey, whom L succeeded on the
G. E. B., has been the agent of the property

revenue last year amounted to 81 800 The CON-
pany that is now operating the mines want the
lease extended for 20 years. will recommend
to the board at the next meeting that this be
done, and also that the property owned by the
order be sold to the miners. They will then be
enabled to build homes for themselves. A

meets the town with the Ohio and Mississippi
Railroad. r....

GOING BACK To CONGRESS.
Some OF the Burns Funeral Party Return to
Their House Duties.

Some OF the Burns Funeral Party Return to
Their House Duties.
Congressman Wade and Mausen, two of
the party who accompanied the remains Of
Congressman Burns to ST. Louis, passed
through the city last night, returning to
Washington. On the way they met the ir-
repressible e1-Congressman Warner, of
Ohio, who still aspires, with slim chances.
Wade is Republican, and of course
everything that Harrison might do would
be pleasing to him. Therefore, he thought
the selection of Blaine, Allison, Alger and
Wanamaker for Cabinet positions was ad-
nirable; no better men could be chosen.
Mausen, Democrat, who hadn't quite re-
covered from the effects of the late shock
and the performance of his recent lugubri-
Gus functions, pleaded Ignorance, and had
nothing to say.
Warner, however, was hopeful, and con-
6dently expects to knock out Grosvenor who
now sits in his Congressional seat.
Returning from Washington last night
were three Wisconsin lumbermen, Messrs
Shaw, Irwin and Ingram. The Interior
Department made rule some time ago that
no more fine timber should be cut from the
Indian reservations. This rule cut into
their pocket books, and they went to Wash
ington to have it modified.
Blaine and Allison in the Cabinet will
be agreeable to Wisconsin Republicans"
said Mr.. Ingram, "but we are not struck on
Alger or Wanamaker. We are pushing
Henry E. Paine, for Postmaster General,
and want to see Uncle Jerry Rusk safely
ensconced in some foreign mission"

No Scale of Wages Arranged for the Work.
ers in the ConneIlsvilIe Region.
This will be the last day the coke opera
tors will have to grant the demands of the
workers in order to avoid strike. There
was no meeting of operators yesterday. and
ali who were seen seemed to be perfectly
satisfied with the condition of affairs. Col
onel j. W. Moore said he had not been
officially notified of a demand for an ad-
vance, and the only knowledge he had of
the action of the men was what he saw in
the newspapers.
He said ne could not afford to pay an ad-
vance, and if the men strike it will be a
good thing, as 3O-days' shut down will
stiffen prices, which are two low at present.
The Frick scale, which is 6L per cent
above the wages paid in the region, expires
to-day, and nothing has yet been done to-
ward renewing it. Mr.. H. C. Frick is ab-
sent from the city, but is expected home to-
day, and it is considered safe to predict that
there will be no trouble at his works.
The following telegram was received last
night from Uniontown:
The cokers in this end of the region are poor
ly organized and efforts are beng made to more
thoroughly unite them. Richard Davis. of the
National Progressive Union, and Peter Wise,
of the Knights of Labor, had a well attended
meeting near Leith this afternoon and urged
the men to demand that the scale be signed
and to stand out for their rights if it was not.
Operators here think there will not be strike.
The superintendent at the Stewart Coke
Works surprised the men by having yester-
days output of coal dumped beside the engine
house as if preparing for strike and leaving
the ovens unchanged The men had notified
the company that they would not work to-day,
and did not, and now find that the works have
been closed down indefinitely and that they
have no need to strike

selves in the New World.

The proposition to make contractors pay
25 cents day tariff on foreign laborers en-
ployed seems to take pretty we'll. 1t was
discussed in Splane's drug store last
night, and various suggestions were
thrown out. Finally Mr.. Splane hit on an
idea that seemed to give satisfaction, viz:
To collect monthly tax from all foreigners,
in the nature of an insurance fund that
would prevent any of them becoming a pub
lie burden in case of accident or disability
He argued that it was simple justice and
nothing more, and that Uncle Sam required
it of deckaneers employed on the river to de-
fray hospital expenses.
The general sentiment was that such a
plan could not be objected to by foreigners
themselves, and that it would not be tariff
for revenue only, but one for protection.
1t was estimated that tax, not of 25
cents per day, but of 25 cents per month,
would yield some $500, 900 a year, and even
were man never to become a beneficiary,
he would get his compensation in the refec-
tion that il he should be, he could take ad-
vantage of it unblushingly. just as member
of an accident insurance company feels
under no obligation, if injured, for bene-
fits received, as by his contract he is entitled
to them.
Mr.. Evan Jones indorsed the plan, and
also added that if the Ford Committee had
called on contractors for information, it
might have gotten much of use that it
didn't get. He stated that there were many
thousands of men in this country who did
not come under the head of foreign contract
labor who were bleeding it fully as heavily
as that class; skilled mechanics who made
from 50 to S6 a day, and never paid taxes
nor became citizens, but who came here
when times were flush, and when they be-
came dull went back to Europe and spent
their money. remaining there until there
was a revival of business. He argued that
such people, who would make good citizens,
should either be forced to become such, or
leave portion of their earnings in the in
surance fund.
1t was held that the obligation did not
rest on citizens, for they are here for veal or
woe, and are forced to bear the country's
burdens willing or unwilling, If a
foreigner does not wish to contribute to the
insurance fund, he can escape by becoming
a citizen, pay taxes and claim the benefit
thereof

1T WOULDN'T WIRING.
A Suit Over Exchanged wringers Didn't
Work Worth n Cent,

Work Worth Cent.
People who peddle clotheswringers and
various other articles of household use, and
sell them to matrons on the installment
plan, and then bring actions in trespass
to recover when the buyers fail to
come to the scratch, or repudiate
alleged agreements, will be interested in the
issue Of the suit of the Metropolitan Manu-
featuring Company versus f. S. q. Pere-
grino, who, when sued for the difference in
price claimed between an old and new
wringer. before Alderman Nolan, denied
that either he or his wife had agreed to the
swap, and in proof submitted the testimony
of his and her olive branches.
The case was noted in these columns one
day last week. After hearing both sides,
Alderman Nolan dismissed the suit, on the
ground that the plaintiff had not proven
contract.
The average female mind is very suscept-
ible to the Establishment of peddlers who
will take part pay down and 10 cents day,
or, perhaps, 25 cents a week, for the re-
mainder. A woman on the Southside some
time ago thought to clinch the love staples
holding herself and husband together by
making him present on his birthday Of an
elegant platform rocking chair, paying
for it by economizing IN the use
of her pin money. Some time later
the husband happened to come across the
contract between his wife and the peddler;
and the unfeeling wretch of husband
damped the wife's ardor, cooled her afec-
tion and planted hatred in her breast against
all such peddlers by taking her to furni-
ture store and showing her that she could
have bought similar chair for three-ffths
of what she had paid. When she found she
had paid $50 for an article she could have
bought for cash for less than $40, she was
wroth, and that agent has only called once
at her house since.

A CHILD'S CUTE QUERY.
Young Precocity TumbIes to the Idea on
the Government Building.

Young Precocity TumbIes to the Idea on
the Government Building.
1t was on Birmingham car yesterday
afternoon. There were passengers enough
to constitute an excellent audience. A
3-year-old kid iR kilt knelt upon one of
the seats about the middle of the car, with
his nose, mouth and eyes very close to the
window-pane. AS they passed the granite
Government building that is to be, or at
least was to have been, the kid called out,
as loud as young Precocitv is wont to do:
"Ma! be they building that building, or
only tearing it down-which do you guess,
Map
The idea caught the carload, and the
audience applauded with its collective
mouth. The kid had forcibly flashed up
the fact that the erection, by &C, 600. 600 peo-
pie, of two stories of granite in decade
might be looked at in two different WAYS.
By the way, a stone did come for this
same building yesterday. 1t was a 1000
pound block OF granite and required eight
horses to haul it. Who says that this great
Government is not progressive in its build
ing operations?

The Pennsy Will Get Back Some of Its
Lost Suburban Business.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
yesterday issued notice to their conductors
to the effect that beginning to-day, they will
honor all daily excursion tickets on the
day following their sale. Heretofore these
tickets were only good for going and return
passage on the date they were sold, which
was stamped on the back of the tickets. A
notice was also posted on the window of the
Union station ticket Office to passengers
notifying them that the tickets would be
good to return until midnight the day fol-
lowing their purchase.
If round trip ticket is purchased on
Saturday, is will be good until midnight
on Monday. 1t is stated that this is the
first move of the company toward loosening
their grip on the local accommodation busi-
ness to get back the patronage taken away
BY the cable lines. The next thing to be done
will be the running OF trains from the Union
station to East Liberty without stopping at
intermediate stations in order to make bet
ter time than the grip cars. Other changes
will probably follow.

THEY WANT A THIRD CLASS.
Allegheny Citizens Hold Public Meeting
and Pass Resolutions.

An adjourned meeting of Allegheny citi-
zens was held in the Sixth ward schoolhouse
hall last night to discuss the proposed legis-
lation for cities of this State. DR.. w. J.
Riggs presided and George R. Boutwell, was
Secretary. The committee appointed to in
quire into the condition of affairs presented
a report, which was read by Mr.. John Viii
helm.
A series of resolutions was then intro
duced approving the proposition to enter
the second class, and objecting to some of
the clauses in the act proposed for the gov
ernment of cities of the third class. One of
these objections was the authority given the
Mayor to appoint all heads of departments,
and another the creating of Board Of
Water Commissioners. The abolishing of
the Board of Assessors was favored, and
also the Office of Delinquent Tax Collector.
After discussion lasting about an hour,
the resolutions were adopted, as was a reso-
luton proposed by DR.. Gilliford, thanking
the members of the Legislature for return
ing the charter bill to the committee 1t
was decided to have the resolutions printed
and copies sent to members of the Legisla-
ture

"The seasons have changed, and are no
longer what they formerly were," said the
oldest inhabitant. II will tell you about a
few of those within my recollection and then
you can judge whether there is any truth in
that remark. Continuing, the weather
talker said:
ION November II, 1881, winter commenced
with severity and held on until late in
March, when the water came, and the ice broke
up and produced the great flood of 1892
February, l, 1885. the winter, which had been
severe up to that date, broke up, and spring
set in.
The winter of 1928 was precisely like the
present one so far. The whole of the month of
January was pleasant as it is now. The roads
became settled and good. The farmers did
most of their spring plowing, and everything
seemed springhke. On the LIST of February the
winter commenced in earnest and was hard and
severe up to April 1st. t.
The summer of 1855 was very warm grow
ing season and thus continued until Christmas.
enabling the farmers to pasture their stock in
the fields up to that time. On Christmas day
SnOW
fell in greater or less quantities almost every
day for two months, amounting to more than
five feet of snow during the season. The win
ter was very hard and severe all the time, and
in February the mercury went TO 20 degrees be-
low zero. The cold weather continued until in
April.
The winter of 1923, during the war. was
called the winter of mud''-with rain or soft
snow all the time The robins and some other
birds remained with US during the whole
winter. There was no ice harvested that
season. The month of January, 1874, was very
similar to the present one The fields were
green, and the daEdelions bloomed by the way-
side. Afterward there were slight soft SHOWS.
but not any severe cold that season. The
winter of 1854 was distinguished by intense
and long-continued freezing, forming ice in
many places ~ feet in thickness. and result
ing in most disastrous consequences when it
broke up.
There is therefore, 10 rule about the weather.
but plenty of time for frost and snow before

THE NEW UNION.
Over 5000 Miners in This Section Form a
Permanent Orannization-A Resolution
to Quit Quarreling for Good.

Over 5000 Miners in This Section Form a
Permanent Oraanization-A Resolution
to Quit QuarreIing for Good.
The branch of the new Miners National
Progressive Union in this section, called
subdivision 4, held delegate convention
in Knights of Labor Hall yesterday for the
purpose of forming permanent organiza-
ton. The convention showed the strength
of the new organization here. as there were
33 delegates present, representing 43 mines,
or about 5000 men.
Among the delegates was one from Glen
shaw mines, organized on Monday; one
from Mcdonald station. organized on Tues
day night by President John Mcbride, and
one from Monongahela City. The latter
delegate represents Jones' mines and shows
that the union is obtaining foothold along
the river.
The temporary President, John D. Con-
way. formerly Master Workman of Sub
division 6, N. T. A. 135, X. OF L., called
the convention to order, and Alvin c. Pat
terson acted as Secretary. After the Com
mittee on Credentials had reported and the
delegates were seated, work was commenced
on the constitution. This occupied the
morning session, and at the afternoon
session several resolutions were adopted.
One of them requested all members and
officers of miners organizations to cease
quarreling; another, that whatever scale of
wages is adopted at the Indianapolis con-
vention, it shall not have any bearing on
prices for dead work A resolution was also
adopted to the effect that each operator 60
ing into the convention must agree to pay
the scale ofwages at all his mines. Hereto
fore some Of them who operated several
mines only paid scale prices at one.
President Mcbride spoke for an hour, and
made some very favorable reports on the
progress OF the new union.
The election Of officers then occurred, and
resulted as follows:
President John D. Conway; Vice President,
Peter Harnwell; Secretary-Treasurer.A Alvin C.
Patterson; Executive Board, Michael MeQuaid,
Matthew Green, John Delaney, Frank Taylor
and Samuel Devore; Delegates to the Indian
apolis Convention, A. c. Patterson, Patrick
McBryde, M. McQuaid and John D. Conway.
