LAUNDERING BEAVER.
O'BRIEN-BAIN.

He Writes Telegram Without First OBJ
thinning Legal Advice.
The trial of Dennis Meagher for stabbing
man in Lawrenceville last July will be
remembered as published in THE DIS
PATCH at the time. The verdict went
against Meagher, and his attorney filed an
application for new trial, the defendant
still being under 81 ,O0G BAIL Before the
application was considered by the Court
Meagher skipped for New York, where he
is at present.
The new trial having been denied, the
police officials telegraphed Superintendent
Bvrnes, of New York, who at once secured
Meagher's arrest, and he is now in custody
awaiting the proper requisition papers.
Here is where the difficulty came in.
Under instructions from District Attorney
Porter Inspector McAleese sent the neces-
sary application to Harrisburg, and they
were returned to the Inspector as the Gov
ernor was away, and had left no one to act
for him. Again. the papers were sent this
time by an officer, but no one with authority
to act could be found at the Capital end the
officer came back.
District Attorney Porter then made
direct application to the Governor for requi-
sition papers, and yesterday received tele-
gram from Governor Beaver saying, "Bail
piece is good in another State"
when the Governor wrote that tele-
gram" said the District Attorney, ST am
confident it was in the absence of his legal
adviser. Messrs. Kirkpatrick or Stone
would never have advised such message.
The jurisdiction of court does not extend
beyond its own territory, and cannot be ex-
ereised in another State. Hence the neces-
sity for requisition papers on the Governor
of another State. There should be no such
delays in this case as we have had to con-
tend with
Mr.. Porter then gave directions for an
officer to be sent to Harrisburg this morning
to procure the papers asking for Meagher's
return, and to go on to New York at once
and hrinr him hack

most other American cities, Sunday
is a time of rest from the many
cares which harass the mind DUR
ing those toilsome DAYS which do not
come between a Saturday and Monday" ="
But if there be one member at the clubs
during the summer Sundays, there are five
there during the cold, damp Sundays of
autumn and winter.
Anyone who visited the Cabot Club, Of
Pittsburg, on any recent Sunday, except
yesterday, would have been struck with the
truth of this last observation. We will call
it the Cabot Club for the sake of disguise,
adding still further that it is Republican
club of strong Democratic prejudices; in
other words, a happy anomaly. 1t is
located either on Sixth avenue or Smith
field street-a pretty safe neighborhood in
which to place such

Club can be had on application to the Sec

The Electric Spark Gets In Its Work on
the Federal Street Road.
There was another accident on the Federal
Street Electric road, in Allegheny, yester-
day afternoon. Car No. came down Fed
ersl street, about 4:3O o'clock, and LANDED q
large load of passengers. Just as the car
stopped, the conductor is said to have re-
versed his lever to be in readiness to start
back, and in some way the brass handles on
the dash became charged with electricity.
Two of the passengers Eugene and Isaac
Mammaux. had their hands on the brass,
and received a shock that knocked them on
the car. They tell in a heap as II dead;
Isaac, the nephew of Eugene, was not hurt
much, but the other was stunned so that ne
had to sit down and rest Tor awhile: Inc
rest of the passengers were badly frightened
and left the car from the other end.
Eugene Mammaux had been sick for some
time, and had gone with brother and his
nephew out the electric road for little
fresh air. He lives on South avenue, and Is
employed with the Pittsburg Water Proof
Company on Liberty street.

On Saturday night Officers Hanley and
Cross arrested Michael McNally, Thomas
Nc Carthy and Hugh Brown, three reputed
meI ubers of the "Owl gang" who are
thoug ght by the police to be connected with

over l1ntil this morning. In speaking OF
them yesterday, Inspector McAleese said
that th rough the efforts OF Officers Cross,

during be past week and held for court
trial, and that it was expected to land the

read or smoke gentlemen by the score. In
his iavorite nook, by the fire, sits the priv
ileged s'oldest member, autoerat of all the
hearthrug, and suzerain of the "Salle a

gagged in one of his daily lectures on men

from the over-ardent proximity of the fire,
he has spread a copy of THE DISPATCH.

one of that "Pierre" of whom Thackeray
sings;

He sits, and he talks of old scars,

With drink, that is named after Mars"
These old warriors love the warmth and
