His Friends Don't Know Whether He ID
Dead or Alive.
NEW YORK. December 12-The seas have
been searched within radius of 50 miles OF
New York harbor, and not a trace of Dave
Dillon or Of his boat, in which he was blown
out to sea yesterday, has been found. All day
yesterday a number of steam tugs were scour-
ing the bay for the missing boatman. When
Dillon disappeared in the southeast it was
hoped and thought he would make the Sandy
Hook lightship. A tug went out yesterday,
and returned with the bad news that the boat
man had not been seen by those on the light
ship. Dillon's chance Of safety in his
making either one of the many pilot boats
along the coast or one of the many outgoing
steamships is the only hope.
Captain Dave Roach, of the Vulcan, who
has known Dillon probably longer than any
other man in this city. went down the bay
incoming steamships and sailing vessels Not
one of them had seen the boatman.
Dillon's friends do not believe that he has
been lost As Captain Roach said to-day:
"Dillon was one of the sturdiest, and in fact
the best toatman in these parts. l don't think
he has been lost, because we have secured the
bay and ocean for so miles and have seen moth
ing of him, nor did we see the wreck of any
small boat. If Dillon was lost during the gale
his boat could have been found. II he sur
vived the gale, then, unless he starved to
death, he is perfectly safe"
The belief Of all his friends is that Dillon
was picked up by some outgoing vessel.
Dillon left family of four children and his
wife, all of whom are nearly distracted with
grief.
Dillon was married and his wife and foJ
Children are in Clifton, S. !. He was one of the
most famous boatmen in this city. He former
ly lived in Australia, and before the days Of
Searle he was the champion sculler of that
country. He easily defeated Kemp who was
afterward defeated bY Searle in a closely con-
tested match. Dillon is said to have sculled in
over 100 races and to have been successful in
most of them. He was very popular among
the Battery boatmen and was the champion
Whitehall oarsman. He was b5 years old, and
was known as Australian Dave" among his

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TIE DIsPATcH.i
WAYNEsBURG, December IA number Of
citizens held an indignation meeting at Car
michaels this week consequent upon the ac-
quittal of James Neff, who was charged with
implication in the murder of William McCaus-
land. This is the first public expression
Of condemnation of the action of
the Washington county jury. Lynching
was talked of by some aside from the meeting,
and we understand that several persons pro-
posed organizing and proceeding Herewith to
carry this into execution. The meeting ap-
pointed committee of four persons to secure
signatures upon a paper demanding that Nef
and a woman of bad character named Emma
Wright, with whom he has been living for sew
eral years, shall leave the community within
ten days after the committee shall give them
notice.
The paper was signed by many Of the best
citizens in Carmichaels, and has since been cir
culated in the surrounding neighborhood,
where other names were added. These men
pledge their property in payment of costs in
case suit is brought against any of their num-
Der for actions in this matter. A determined
class of citizens are proceeding, with the move
ment. and it is likely they will carry out the in
tention of ridding the community of these two
persons. 1t it hardly likely that serious viO-
lence will be permitted, however. Neff lives
three miles from Carmichaels, ana in the same
township. The meeting was held at night.

ESPECIAL rELroaAM TO The D1spArcH.I


BEAVER FALLS, December 13.-It is
probable that nine persons will be admitted
to the Harmony or Economic Society at
Economy, Pa, in February at their great
annual feast of the Holy Communion. The
nine persons have been selected and are at
present residents of the Economic COM
munity, but not members of the society.
Their admittance into the organization will be
something very unusual and will be celebrated
with great Solemnity.
Several of the men selected have families,
but as one of the prime and fundamental rules
of this strange organization is cellbacy the men
will have to give up their wives and forever
live apart from them if they join the society.
At least this has been the rule heretofore when
members were taken and doubtless the rule in
this case will be strictly adhered TO. The
society originally consisted Of over 700 souls
but it has dwindled down to less than 30. Its
wealth is estimated by millions.

Seven Persons Have a Narrow Escape
From n Horrible Death.
BEADING, December lS-The inmates Of
Mrs. Wenrich's house, 1921 Walnut street, had
a very narrow escape to-day from suffocation
by escaping Illuminating gas. Up to IL A. M.
the neighbors noticed that no one was stirring
about the house. This was unusual, as the cook
was generally up at an early hour, Finally
Fred Coonley, peighbor, was prevailed upon
to enter the house. He got on top of an out
building and crawled through second-story
window.
Instantly he knew what was wrong. The
house was filed to suffocation with gas. He
groped his way about, broke open the doors of
the bed chambers and aroused the occupants,
who were on the verge of death. Miss Nellie
Wenrich was found nearly unconscious, and
six female boarders we're badly affected, but
revived after being assisted to the open win
dows. The gas escaped from small reception
room on the first floor. Miss Wenrich is con-
fined to her bed and quite i'll.

his MUD yet to go back on the Brotherhood.

long conferences with President Brush, but
nothing definite was arrived at. He lives at
DanEille, Ind, in the next county, and is ex-
pected back here tomorrow or early next

will sign League contract.
Brush. it is suspected, is operating for the
Philadelphia club. and is doing his best to
capture Thompson. 1t is stated in this con-
nection that Thompson really wants to play
with the indianapolis club, and in case Thomp-
son decides to sign with the League an effort

this morning gang of nine tramps were raided
in the upper Baltimore and Ohio yards at this
place and all were captured. They had been
in the boxcar and were making so much noise
that Conductor John Workman and a brake
man warned them away. For an answer the
tramps sprang from the car and chased the
trainmen, throwing stones and pieces of iron at
them.
Workman was caught and thrown down on
the track his lamp taken from him, and one of
the tTamps swung it aloft, signalling the en-
gine to run over the conductor, but assistance
arrived before this horrible intention could be
put into execution.

Thirty Fourth Ward school Directors VIII
Essay to End Deadlock.

The Thirty-fourth ward school directors
will meet tonight to make another attempt
to drop member of their corps of teachers.
More than dozen of meetings were held
some time ago for the same purpose, but the
board always failed on the point of deciding
who should be dropped.
When the parochial school was established
in that ward, the attendance at the public
school decreased until it is only necessary to
have three teachers instead of four, but the
question with the board is: "Who shall
go?" 1t seems that all the teachers are
very able instructors. It is not likely that
there will be anything accomplished at the
meeting tonight.
