her 14-year-old son, Clay, at 10 o'clock
Monday morning. His mother had
given him permission to go out duck

into the next room to get his double
barrel shotgun, and attempted to in

cause the gun was discharged, the
charge of shot penetrating an inch

CRUSHED AT HIS DEFEAT.

Joboat Owner Tried TO Suicide In the Jail
He Was No Match for Woman with
Coal ScuttIe-His Assnilant Not Ar
rested.
Jack" Fickley, a resident of '.joboat,"
moored at the foot of South Eighth street
in the Monongahela river, was arrested last
night, and while in the Twenty-eIghth ward
station house, made two attempts to commit
suicide by hanging.
About o'clock Mrs. William Gilbreath
and Jack had a quarrel, which ended in
Mrs. Gilbreath knocking Fickley down
with coal scpttle. His face was badly cut.
When Officer Guenther arrived Mrs. Gil
breath ran into her house, and as the officer
did not have warrant, he could not go in
after her. Ficklev was arrested and locked
up In the Twenty-eighth ward police sta
tion. His defeat affected him to such an ex-
tent that he brooded over the matter in his
cell, and decided to commit suicide. TAX
ing off the belt that he wore around his
waist, he fastened one end of il to one
of the overhead bars in the cell, and tied
the other end around his neck. Sergeant
Fitsimmons was attracted by the noise Flick
ley made, and found him suspended In his
cell about minute after he jumped off the
seat on which he had been standing The
strap was quickly cut and Fickley was let
down. The strap was then taken from him.
Shortly after the Sergeant went to the cell
and found that Fickley had taken off his
trousers and was trying to hang himself
with his underclothes. These were also
taken from him. Fickley has a wife and
four cbilden. He is known as the liking
of Smoky Hollow"

Last evening, as County Controller Speer
was hustling to get home, Constable James
j. Grady caught him on the fly and began
to read the names on sundry papers issued
by Alderman John Nolan in a suit against
Allegheny county. Mr.. Speer listened to-
the array Of names until a suspicion crossed
his mind that it might be a census report,
and gasped that he would accept service as
to all, and saw no more about it.
The plaintiffs in the suit are William
Downey, Dennis Weir, John w. Weir,
James S. Kline, John L. Mercer, John
Mofatt, Samuel Dalzell, William DUR,
Henry Behrns, William Brown, James P.
O'Neill, Patrick Moran, Owen McCabe, W.

eel, Frank Hamilton, AL. Henderson, j. s.

ton and w. Clark-who constitute about
one-third of those aggrieved, and the rest
will follow suit, probably tomorrow.

ployed as deputy sheriffs to keep order there
during the strike at the steel works of Car
negie, Phlpps & Co. They say they were
promised S. day. They also say that some
favored ones got the amount stipulated,
while the others got half, and one man is
said to have gotten nothing, not even the
coat, hat and cane which, though he did not
get. yet was charged for. One man said his
hat, coat and cane all combined were not
worth dollar and that they were asked to
pay for them whether they got them or not.
They do not object so much to the clothing
feature in the case, but they say they pro-
pose to stand on the contract and refuse to
settle except on S5-a-day basis.
There was considerable discussion among
the men, some holding that the firm had
purchased the uniforms, while others sup
posed it was county affair; but as they
only knew the county in the matter they
looked to it for restitution. Alderman
Nolan fixed next Thursday for hearing.
Every effort 20 find Sheriff McCandless
last night and get his side of the matter
proved unavailing; but he probably has
reasons for declining to pay some of the
men, or believes he has!

From the opinions expressed last evening
by Mr.. Harry E. Wainwright, prominent
brewer, it would seem that the efforts of the
syndicate operating for the control of the
local breweries are destined to meet with
failure. There is nothing new in stating
that syndicates are trying to get on the in
side track of the glass factories as we'll as
the breweries; but, as the gentleman referred
to says, if there is money in these enter
prises for foreign capital there must be just
as much for American, If not more, and the
probability is that no deals in these lines
will be effected after all.
A rumor was sent forth yesterday to the
effect that the brewing firm of z. VAIN
wright had been offered 81. 500, 900 for their
business, and this member of the firm, on
being asked as to the truth of the report.
said
"It is quite true that we have been
offered price for our concern by a party
from New York, who claims to act on be-
half of an English syndicate, just as other
firms have; but, whether there is any proba-
bility of our selling, allow you to Judge
when l tell you that wei have had under con-
sideration for some time past project for
extensive repairs to our plant as soon as the
cool weather sets it. That hardly looks like
selling, does it? There is not one, but there
are several syndicates giving their attention
to the brewing business. for more than one
proposal to sell bas been made to firms.
There is very little chance OF any deals
being effected, for the reason that the lead
ing firms are holding aloof from the propo-
sition, and no syndicate would attempt to
operate among the others, unless it had first
secured the large breweries. know of Two
breweries that have mutually agreed not to
sell without notifying each other, and am
aware of one firm that has given an option;
hut, If I were a member of an English syn
dicate, I would not care to buck against
home brewers, as would be the case unless
combination taking in the whole number
could be effected. One firm owning two
plants has declared its willingness to accept
a price for one of them, while steadily re-
fusing to part with the other.
"It Englishmen think we'll of putting
money into American breweries, think
that Americans will see that it is to their
interest to keep their money in them. 1
don't think that the operations ofsthe syndi-
Gates will amount to an nything."

and his wife, Lizzie Noe, were arrested by
Officers Cross and Hanlon last evening at
the house of Mrs. Gibson on Poplar alley,
near Washington street, and lodged in the
Eleventh ward station. 1t is alleged BY the
officers that the party congregated at the
above house and after partakins of consider
able beer, a quarrel ensued, in which beer
bottles and glasses we're thrown and the
stove upset.
Mrs. Gibson resisted the officers, and they
had quite struggle to get her in the patrol
wagon. Mrs. Lizzie Noe had months
old child in her arms when put in the wagon,
which was taken to the station house. The
arrest created quite an excitement about
Poplar alley and Washington street.

SATISFACTORY SETTLEMENT.
The Prescription Scale Arranged and the
Workers Have n Slight tAdvantnge-De-
tails of the Arrangement.

tails of the Arrangement.
The conference between committees of
prescription glassworkers and manufactur-
ers on wages for the coming fire, held at the
Monongahela House yesterday, ended very
satisfactory to both sides. All of last years
rules were adopted except one. This was
the rule that provides for market money"
Last year they were given SIS week, and
the amount has been increased to $40. The
balance due the worker remains with the
firm until the end of the fire, unless the
worker gives three days notice, when he
can draw the entire amount due him.
The scale of wages for the next fire will
be the same as last year. except in the milk
jar department, where the men were given a
10 per cent advance.
When the question of shutdown for the
summer came up the workers demanded
eight weeks and the manufacturers six
weeks. A compromise was made and the
summer stop will be for the same period as
at present, seven weeks.
This settlement fixes wages and rules for
the year ending on the last Saturday in
June, 1890, and affects about ], 900 workers.
Three departments in the flint glass line
have now been arranged, the prescription,
chimney and engraving. The other depart
ments will likely be settled before the mid
die of August.
