A BIG STRIKE ENDED.
The National Tube Company Concede
the Demands Of the Strikers.
OVER 1000 MEN ARE PLEASED.
Old Wages Restored and a Sliding Scale tt
be Prepared.
MORRIS L. WHEAT ON PROHIBITION

The big strike is over and 1000 OF the en-
ployes of the National Tube Works Com
pany at McKeespOrt who we're idle are e1-
pected to be at work to-day and Mchees-
port is happy. The Tube Works Company
granted the demand of the men, and Gen-
eral Manager John II. Flagler has in course
ofpreparation a sliding scale which ne
thinks will be both beneficial to the COM
pany and the employees. The company gave
notice at o'clock yesterday afternoon that
it would restore the wages of year ago
which means 10 and 15 per cent OF an ad-
vance and per cent to laborers.
The idle men were increased yesterday, as
several more departments Joined those who
went out the day before. The men gov
erned themselves and stuck together,
transacting their business in business
like, systematic way, all of which counted
with the company and assisted them greatly
in winning the demand. The committee OF
three called on Mr.. Flagler yesterday
morning and made known their demand.
He treated them pleasantly, and told them
the company would consult its books, con-
slider the matter and do the best it could for
them. The committee then reported to the
men at meeting held later.
At o'clock the company issued a notice
stating that the wages of one year ago would
be restored, dating from Monday next, and
that the works would resume in tull at once.
The notice also stated. that while the busi-
ness Of the pipe trade in general does not war
rant an advance at this time, yet the COM
pany felt if trade and prices increase as is
expected that it anticipated now that which
it would have done later on"
The strike was preeipated quickly, but
was conducted in business like manner.
Speaking of it General Manager Flagler
said:
While 1 am sorry our employees walked out
of the mills, am pleased to know that they
have largely severed themselves from the
Knights of Labor and the Amalgamated As
sociation. These organizations have drawn
large sums of money from our men In dues,
and they received no commensurate return for
the same Our men have always done well on
their own account. Having the interest fore
most of the employees, the works and the city,
will always endeavor TO be as fair, liberal
and considerate as circumstances will permit
and to this end have in course OF preparation
a sort of sliding scale, or summer and win
ter scale, of wages, which will be based on the
selling price of pipe When the market Is
good and prices the same wages Will go up in
ket is dull and prices low, and will enable us to
keep the works in constant operation. This
will benefit the men, the company and the city,
and all are interested in 1t, and II accom-
plished, as I expect it viii, the day for strikes
and idleness will have passed

the church property all over the diocese in
rather bad shape. There had been many
young priests at work, and the prosperity of
the times had led them to invest too
much money in church property. They
had gone in debt beyond ;. their
power to liquidate, and the new
Bishop was forced to adopt stringent
measures to overcome the error. He event
uallY succeeded, and although the means
he employed were, at the time, considered
harsh, Bishop Tuigg in the end won the
love and admiration of all his clergy.
Bishop Domenec shortly after resigned his
see. and retiring to his home in Spain died,
venerated and respected by all Bishop
Tuigg was then made administrator OF the
Allegheny diocese and bent all his energies
to straighten the financial complications
that had occurred. In December, 1882, heart
failure and paralytic troubles rendered him
unable to continue work. he took journey
South to Charleston, S. c., and returned ap-
parently in good health. But the second
day after his return, April II, 1888, he was
stricken again and was forced to retire to
his home in Altoona.

1t is Badly Wanted in Pittsburg-Surgeou
General Hamilton Desires it BuiIt-The
Money Now in the Treasury.
Mr.. J. W. Diehl and Rev.. T. 81. Chap
man, who went to Washington, d. C., last
"Wednesday for the purpose of asking Secre-
tary of the Treasury Window to give the
East End people the privilege Of using a
piece of Government property on Ellsworth
avenue as public park, returned yesterday.
Mr.. DiehI, while talking about his trip,
said:
I'VE went first to see the Hon. W. Win
dom, and he assured us that he would do
anything in his power to give the use of the
lot to the people, if the law sanctioned such
transfer. He expressed bimself heartily in
favor of the project in every way. Then we
paid our respects to Surgeon General j. B.
Hamilton, of the q. S. Marine Service, and
he, though very courteous, knocked all the
encouragement we had received from Mr..
Window out of us.
4 want hospital in Pittsburg,' he
said. 4 have ali the money to build it and
Western PennsylYania needs q marine
hospital the worst way, and, If / can have
my way, that institution will be erected
very shortly; for If 1t isn't put up on that
property il must be somewhere else
''I told him." continued Mr.. Diehl, 'sthat
the place was at present a general dumping
ground for rubbish, sewer pipes and gar.
bage, and that we were willing to vacate the
ground whenever the Government wanted it,
$50 it is general dumping ground?'
said Surgeon General Hamilton. We'll, L
will see that that is stopped, and he i'm
mediately dictated letter to his representa-
tive in Pittsburg to be careful that such
Go1 NOS occur again. However, we will
meet in few days and report what we did
in Washington. The probability is that we
win buy the ground. Certain it is that we
viii either have park or a marine hospital
there"

THE K. OF L. AND PROHIBITION.

General Worthy Foreman whent Says rs
Per Cent VIII Vote for IL.
General Worthy Foreman Morris L.
Wheat, of the knights of Labor, spent the
afternoon at D. A. headquarters yesterday
securing information as 10 the condition of
affairs in this vicinity. He believes the
order is growing here, but not as rapidly as
in other parts of the country. During his
tour of this State he learned the sentiments
of the Knights on the prohibition amend
ment Although workingmen and laborers
have the reputation Of being heavy drinkers,
Mr.. Wheat says he is certain that fully 75
per cent of the K. of L. will vote for
the amendment. In the Oil City district,
he says. almost all of the members of the
order viii cast their ballots for prohibition.
This section of the State, however, will op-
pose the amendment very vigorously, and it
is stated that not more than 6 per cent of the
members of D. A. 8, L. A. 500, N. 7. A.
1885, n. 7. A. 217, n. 7. A. 1875, K of L.,
in Allegheny county will vote for the
amendment.
There are only 5000 members of the order
in this section. Mr.. Wheat comes from the
prohibition State of Iowa, and believes that
prohibition does prohibit. He has not come
out directly for the amendment, but seems
to favor the proposed law.

he HIT HIS HEART.
A BelIevernon Man Commits Suicide Near
Allentown, Southside.

Allentown, sOuthside.
Jacob Amalong, labOrer, aged 3s years,
committed suicide yesterday morning in
Bailey's Grove, back of Allentown.
Amalong was a resident of Bellevernon.
The only friend living in Pittsburg is his
father-in-law, John Haddigk, of Allen
town, but he had not been at Mr.. Haddigk's 3
place, and il is not known when he came
from Bellevernon.
A man named August Held, while pass
ing the grove between and o'clock yes
terday morning, heard shot, but took no
notice of it. About o'clock last evening
Amslong's body was found in the field with
bullet wound over the heart and a re-
volver still in his hand. The body was
carried to Vierhellers undertaking rooms
and Coroner Mcdowell was notified.
Squire Barr was deputized to hold the
inquest last night Mr.. Haddigk testified
that Amalong had been married about ten
years, but that he and his wife had not
lived happily together.
The revolver found was a new 38-caliber
gun. There was only one empty chamber.
The jury rendered verdict of suicide,
and Amalong's body will be shipped to
Bellevernon to-day for interment.
Amalong was born and raised in Belle
vernon, and at the trial of Dukes for the
murder Of Captain A. G. Mutt, in 1884, he
oficiated as foreman of the jury that acquit-
ted Dukes.

Tie Nav Music FESTIVAL

It's a significant fact that at the ap-
preaching great May Festival they use only
the famous Stelnway pianos All the other
piano makers were crazy to get their make
of instrument into the Music Festival, but
the high artistic character of the performers
and the elevated style of their music con-
way Grand could possibly fill the bill. At
the late Gilmore concert the steinway
Grand, also, was the only instrument which
Mr.. Gilmore thought fit to be used in grand
concerts. This fact must be highly gratify-
ing to the thousands of possessors Of the
Steinway, and also to the Messrs. 81. Kleber

them in our section Of country.

1t will be noticed that while some music
firms are picked upon TO do the ticket SELL
ing for concerts, others are chosen to
furnish the artistic, the musical ma
terial for the same, viz; the pianos. No
matter who sells the tickets, 0rwhen it comes
to the musical part they all must apply at
Kleber & Bro. s to get suitable and salts
factory piano for the occasion. Look at our
own May Festival, Gilmore's concerts.
Rosenthars concerts, and all others of any
Importance; it is Steinway and nothing but
Steinway. All the best pianos are concen-

TOO MANY EXAMINATIONS.
Col. Parker Criticizes the State Normal
School System.

School System.
Colonel Parker, of Chicago, was in the
city short time last night before he went
to New York. The Colonel had been lee
turing on educational subjects all week at
California.
He says Pennsylvania is ripe for great ad-
vaneement in her schools, if hustIing
leader could be secured. The State has the
wealth, but lacks certain things in the edu-
cational line. He thought strikes could
easily be prevented if the people were prop
erly educated and able to size up the situa-
ton for themselves. He had hoped that
Governor Beaver would take up the subject
Of intellectual training.
Colonel Parker thinks the normal schools
are hampered by the rigid examinations
held so frequently. He says the time OF the
students is consumed examining for these
various ordeals, an6 the consequence is that
there is no intellectual development.
