BUDDENSIECK BUILDINGS.

PIrtsbHrg Architects Taking Alarm Mt the
Flimsiness of Some Structures They
Have TO Put Up-Controller Morrow
Says Legislation IL Needed.
The architects of Pittsburg have taken
alarm at the style of some buildings which
they are required to put up for residence
purposes. A consultation was held upon
the subject few days ago, among some Of
the leading architects, and from a compari-
son of notes it was found that several blocks
of buildings in the city are constructed be-
tween four brick walls, while the dividing
partitions are so constructed, probably with
a view to acoustic perfection not attained by
any public hall in Pittsburg, from the Exposi-
tion Hall to the dime museums, that baby
CRYING In No. can be heard at No. 6.
The possibilities OF this attempt at the Bud
densieck style of architecture, should a fire
break out in one of the buildings, it was said.
were alarming, as the divisions were no more
proof against fire than the screens with which
the Japanese hotel keepers, or the New York
sailors boarding house keepers, subdivide their
apartments.
Controller Morrow was asked yesterday If no
remedy could be devised for such state of
affairs, and he said that there was certainly
legislation needed in such matter. as the
building inspectors could not act without au-
thority, and at present he did not think there
was any statute under which they could pro-
ceed against the builders of such blocks with
out being authorized by complaints of the occu-
pants. OF course he said, he would not give
that as an official opinion, but he thought that
a common sense view of the question at issue
might induce the builders and architects, for
their own credit and the general public for its
own safety, to proceed toward securing the
necessary legislation.

THE FIFTH WHEEL.
So Chief Elliott Regards the City Treasurer
Recommendation NJ TO Bids.

Recommendation TO Bids.
The Department of Awards met yesterday
afternoon and recommended the contracts for
city printing and stationery. Before the con-
tracts were taken up letter from the City
Treasurer was read, in which he asked that,
Notwithstanding that Charles F. Peck & Son
were the lowest bidders, the contract be award
ed to Best & Co. tor printing the city tax books,
as they had furnished the books last year and
their work was superior to Peck Sons.
Chief Elliott wanted to know when the fifth
member had been appointed on the Depart
ment of Awards. He said he did not pay any
was under bonds to do good work as well as the
highest, and if good work was not supplied
there was a remedy in another direction.
The contracts were then awarded, Peck &
Son getting the tax book contract. John p
Devine secured the contract for printing the
municipal record at 81 81 per page. Best Co.
got the Council files at 81 "a per page. The
other contracts were divided up among half
dozen city printing firms. WeIdin & Co., w. G.
Johnston and Jos. Eichbaum secured the sta
tionery contracts.
Bids were opened for 2 900 tons of water pipe.
from II to 30 inches in diameter. Dennis Long
& Co., of Louisville, secured the contract at S23
per ton for regular sizes aud S44 for special
castings. Two Pittsburg bids were consider
ably higher.
Bids were opened for fuel for the garbage
furnaces, but the matter was laid over until a
future meeting. Fred Greiner bid 81 s. per ton
for lump coal and IS cents for slack. J. B.
steen bid So for lump coal. 81 so for nut coal
and 81 for slack.

RIVERS FALLING RAPIDLY.

About !, ZOO, 900 Bushels of Conl Ready to
Go Out-The Broom and Bucket Brigade
Out Cleaning Up-The Joboats Still With
Mayor Pearson.
The rivers are falling very rapidly, and the
coal men are beginning to think of sending
out tows. There are about ], 900, 900 bushels
of coal to 60 out, Walton having the most.
Among the boats that will start as soon as
the water subsidies somewhat, which will be
in few days, are the Enterprise, Acorn,
Nellie Walton, Sam Miller, the Jim Brown,
Sam Brown and Belle MCGOWAN.
ATT o'clock Yesterday morning the Mo-
nongahela registered % feet inches, and by
nightfall the water had declined to 20 feet.
All along the Allegheny river bank from the
Point to beyond the Chestnut street bridge,
the waters are receding.
At $50 o'clock yesterday the water stood %
feet 6 inches. In the afternoon the mark
showed the river to have diminished upward of
feet. Though the current is swift, yet all
danger is past and nothing serious has oc-
CURED outside of flooded cellars and the block
aiding of the Pittsburg and Western Railroad
since Saturday. The first tram from Chicago
reached the Pittsburg and western depot
yesterday afternoon. 1t took two engines to
pull the cars through the water, which had
risen on the railroad tracks several feet. and
for considerable distance the Ioadbed is COM
pletely submerged. However, the authorities
hope to have everything in shape and be able
to run their regular trains by to-day.
Housewives scrubbing brushes and brooms
were prominent features on River avenue,
Allegheny. A stroll in that direction revealed
the fact that goods packed in cellars were
seriously damaged.
On either side of the river big piles of logs
and rubbish of all kinds were left high and dry
on the streets. The sign "Place no dirt or ashes
here" has been totally ignored by the giant tur-
11FA NI,4,v
rubbish imaginable: and. as if in mockery, the
injunction flows serenely on, and joins hands
with the Monongahela at the Point, and surges
into the Ohio.
The cellar of the Boyer House and, in fact,
all along Duquesne way, many places have been
put to considerable Inconvenience, but no
damage.
The baseball grounds of the Brotherhood
team. at the Exposition, have largely lost the
appearance of a natatorIum, and in a few days
will be sufficiently dry for the work to be con-
tinued. Mr.. Morris, of the Brotherhood club,
said yesterday that the flood would not delay
the work to any considerable extent, and that
the grounds would be ready in plenty of time
for the opening game.
Mayor Pearson and Ordinance Officer Cope
land. of Allegheny, prayed that the flood would
carry off some of the jo-boats. but this good
fortune went shy on them. One of the jolly
boatmen was asked if he intended to vacate his
post He said if he could stand a
flood. he certainly could not be bluffed away by
any officials. He said he would continue to do
business smuggling against the river bank and
his solitary goat, musing amid the plenteous
waste of old tin cans, exhausted shoes. broken
bottles and reminiscent circus bills.

Mueller, would tend bar for her. She denied
the running of a speak-easy at her boarding
house, but said that she sold cigars and soft
drinks.
ALDERMAN DOUGHTY ILL.
When John House was called, Attorney
Dickey asked leave to call Alderman Doughty
later Attorney Fetterman presented doctors
certificate that the Alderman was sick in bed.
The certificate was sworn to before the Alder
man himself. Mr.. Dickey said: Alderman
Doughty was subp9naed on Saturday and he
promised to be here, but he said that If he
were asked certain questions by the Judges be
would not answer them"
The Court directed the examination to pro-
ceed. House, who wore a Grand Army suit,
asked for a license at No 34Ol Butler street.
He was refused a license in 1885, Judge Ewing
said: although he had good accommoda-
tions the Court could not help refusing him
without practically saying to him that saloon
could be run just as the proprietor pleased
without regard to the law. ] recollect TINS case
well. He was licensed in 1857. Unfortunately,
he neglected the admonitions of the Court"
Attorney Fetterman-What have you been

81 have not had beer within three months"
"Up to within three months you did sell beer

"Oh, 1 kept it for my boarders, and
And you occasionally sold it to outsiders?'
Yes, sometimes l did"
Attorney Dickev-Your Honor, it will not be
necessary to call MIR. Doughty.
SORRY FOR THE SOLDIER.
Judge Ewing-Mr. House. you had better
keep your house on strict principles for another
year. 1 am sorry for you, because you have
good accommodations. Your being a soldier is
one reason why would like to license you. I
am very sorry.
Mr.. House walked away, looking exceeding
ly sad.
Mathew Hanlon. a young man, asks for IL
cense at No. 335l Penn avenue, at the Forks of
the Road. That used to be licensed house
prior to the Brooks law, being kept alternately
by August Rub, Frank Bauman and George
Morris. Judge Ewing expressed the opinion
that the house was a "bed-bug ridden place"
1t was. he said, old house so years ago. At
12:4O P. NJ. a recess was taken for 80 minutes.

THE COAL MEETING TO-DAY.

Columbus Roads Threaten to Withdraw
From the Traffic Association.
The coal operators of this city will watch
with interest the result of the meeting of Hook
ing Valley Railroad agents at Columbus to- day.
1t is said that several of the roads will insist
upon making ditferental rate Of 25 cents in
favor of the Hooking Valley operators. If the
Traffic Association do not sustain this, it is
said the roads would likely inaugurate a rate
war.
The Pttsburg operators do not care what the
railroad companies do with the rates, so long
as they do not make too great a differential in
favor of their competitors. If the Pittsburg
railroad agents had their way they would
charge The Hooking Valley operators higher
rates than those from Pittsburg on account of
the haul being longer.

of the roads would make an effort to change

thought it was possible special commodity

In a short chat Mr.. Wight said: "One can't

prospects for business are bright. The gram
Shipments from the West have been heavy all
winter, and they will continue until May, when
there will be general letting up. The corn

they can see what the next one will be like.
They are just beginning now to ship some Of
