FACTORY INSPECTORS HERE.

Messrs. Martin and Baker Talk About the
Laws Governing the Employment of
Women and Chiidren-some Changes
suggested-More suits TO Be Entered.
Factory Inspector Martin and Assistant
Baker visited the headquarters OF several
labor organizations yesterday to exchange
greetings and incidentally receive any
hints that might be forthcoming regarding
an amendment to the present factory law.
Mr.. Martin said he considered the limit
of age provided for by the laws too low and
thought it should be IA years instead OF L. The
law is no protection in regard to its control OF
women and children. Where fewer than ten
were employed the Inspectors could not inter-
fere. Mr.. Martin agreed that this district-all
of the State west of the lleghenies-should be
divided into three other districts each OF which
amount Of work women can do
is less here, compared with Eastern
cities. He said he was here to see after the
prosecution for violations Of the law that had
been entered, and on the result will depend his
subsequent action regarding other factories In
which abuses exist.
Mr.. Baker said he was surprised to find in
some of the places where less than ten women
or children are employed, nearly complete
bad state of affairs he conceded, but he is power
less to do anything until he is afforded facilities
under the Law. He had his eye on several
factories where abuses were said to exist. and
as soon as the case he has on hand is decided,
he will have some more in court.

OIL GOING DOWN IN PRICE.
ONE OF THE RESULTS OF THE sHUT.IN
MOVEMENT.

Claims Made That the Standard is Discour-
aging Field observation-disclosures Re-
ported Promptly, bur News Suppressed
About Good weIIs-Prospects Not Rosy.
Some petroleum producers who cried,
'Crucify himl cruelty himP' at all who
ventured to suggest that the shut-in move
ment and the destruction of the short inter-
est we're fraught with danger to all e1-
cept the great buyer now wish they
hadn't yelled before they were out
of the woods. The short interest
has been annihilated, and that made it easy
sailing in the matter of securing the last
menace to the monopoly, the Joseph Craig
pipe line, and instead of petroleum being ad-
vanced in its merits, to 81 a barrel as promised,
it has within two days fallen to the S0cent line,
a very low price for the days of speculation.
The last straw and the one that is breaking the
producers backs, was the reduction OF
the premium paid on lower country
oil. Most of them now regard it as the
beginning of the end, and expect the premium
all to be taken of In course of time. The
situation is such that no speculator. however
daring even thinks OF attempting corner that
would enable producers to sell on the top, and
they look this way and that, and stagger to and
fro like drunken men.
1t appears TO be no longer a mooted question
that the Standard is discouraging field opera
tions IN various ways. Not only is price being
steadily reduced, but 1t is charged that
Standard emIssaries have been getting
control of all the good territory thev can cor
raj. and working in various othersways to ef-
feet complete monopoly. A Pittsburg COM
pany, operating in West Virginia, complains
that party is boring in every direction where
territory can be had, and shutting the wells in
and reporting them as busters, with intent to
discourage operation In that section.
S. B. Donaldson, Esq. who has been doing
some real estate business near Mendochsville,
states that while duster in that section was
given all the prominence possible in the way
of publicity, well that came in recently and
is doing 240 barrels a day, has never been re-
ported at all. His Interpretation is that the
outside world is to be kept in ignorance of it. If
possible. TO throw cold water on opera
tions in the vicinity.
If it be true, as often stated, that low price
will not stop development SO long as 4 vast
Lumber of people have their money in it and
cannot quit, ithere would seem to be a possi-
bility that much lower price may eventually
prevail. Some people say the only way TO make
money in petroleum is to build pipe lines and
sell them to the Standard. 1t takes a mint of
money. however, to do that. and independent
refiners find rocky road to hoe.

GILM0RE's BAND COMING,
Arrangements Completed for Two Concert
ThauksUiyInu Day.

Arrangements Completed for Two Concerts
Thanksgiving Day.
The arrangements have all been completed
for the appearance Of Gilmores famous band
in this city on Thanksgiving Day. The band
will give two concerts, matinee and
evening performance, in Old City Hall.
Gilmore is an anniversary tour
commemorative of his great jubilee festival in
Boston 20 years ago, and his concerts here will
be of special Interest on that account. The
management will endeavor to have the pro-
gramnie include number of pieces played on
that historic occasion.
The people of Pittsburg may feel them
selves honored for having this city Sc
lected as the one among ten others
for the band to appear in on Thanksgiving
Day. They will also appreciate the fact
that Gilmore gives series of concerts lasting
four days in San Francisco, Cal. during the
second week in November, and is putting him.
self to the inconvenience of reaching this city
for Thanksgiving Day. Gilmore's Band is rec
ognized to be among the very best in the coun-
try. He always draws full houses. and as pop
ular prices will prevail during his engagement
here, tho capacity of Old City Hall will no
doubt be severely taxed.

TAKING ITS MEMBERS.
knights of Labor to Pay 25 Cents Eacl
Week TO Support the Strikers.

knights of Labor to Pay 25 Cents Each
Week TO Support the Strikers.
The knights of Labor have levied tax Of 25
cents per week from each member in support
of the New York Central strikers. The tax
goes into effect at once and applies equally
over the country. The order enforcing it is a
red letter. one. implying urgency and dis
patch.
The reports concerning the agitation going
on in L. A. 800 for a withdrawal from the order
were reported with more emphasis yesterday
in spite of the denials of the officials. 1t is not
said that any proposition with this end has
been made. but it is asserted on good authority
that there is a lever of discomfort in the ranks
which is agltating withdrawal. 1t is gener-
ally held by these that L. A. 800 did more for
the order than the order did for L. A. 800.
The Executive Board asked l.. A. 300 for a
loan of S.. .00O. and it was not sent on. Neither
was it refused. and it may yet be forwarded.
But the fact that any hesitation was evinced
in loaning headauarters such small sum is a
straw which shows where the wind sits
Denials of such statements by officials will
not alter their complexion.

DEARER THAN LONDON.
SOME HIGH PRICED PROPERTY FOUND
IN THIS CITY.

II Is Worth Over s3.OOO,O00 Per Acre
Tall Buildings VIII be the Rule After
WhIIe-Not Assessed ut a High Figure.
Real estate values in some places in this
city are agreed to be immense, and it must
be accepted as testimony to an immense
and profitable business that can afford to
occupy such places. Some business men
are complaing that property is too high in
the business centers, but still it rents so as
to bring an income to the renters. There
are few people, however, even among the
GROWERS mentioned that have ever con-
sidered that some Pittsburg land is higher
than the highest in London, but such seems to
be the case.
A writer on political economy talking on the
subject of values, says there is land in London
worth 81, ,000, ,000 an acre, without reference to
the building on it, but Pittsburg can discount
that. There is on the corner of Fifth avenue
and Wood street lot 40 by go feet for which
5000 foot front on the 40foot side has been
offered. This is $50 33 per square foot for the
lot. or at the rate of s3,52l, 800 an acre. 1t is
true this includes the value of the building on
the lot, but the structure aside from its posi-
tion and consequent advantage in the way of
rental, is scarce worth anything. In fact it was
not considered safe some time ago. and
the Building Inspector had it overhauled.
Taking of the tens of thousands, hundreds
tens and units from the sum total s.. .52l, $40
would still leave IS, 500. 600, the rate at which
the ground alone was valued. Taking the as
sessment of property in this vicinity fronting
on Fifth avenue and Diamond street and aver
aging the two gives more than 81, 200, 900 value
for an acre, though the latter was assessed but
little above business alley value.
These figures mean that hereafter buildings
In the business center of P1ttsburg will be Of
the skyward pattern. and in a few years any
thing less than seven stories will look sQuatty,
unless the business area be greatly enlarged
for on land at So, 900 900 an acre owners must be
aspiring if they wish to secure returns.

LITTLE STOCK IN GEOLOGY,

Silver Discovered in small Quantities in n
Quarry ut McKec's Rocks - Valuable
Ores May be Found Right at Home If
Looked For.
A short time age N. W. Shafer, ESQ.,,
hired an intelligent German to work in a
stone quarry which Mr.. Shafer is operating
at Bellevue. He said to the man, sportively:
eff you find any precious metals, wish
you would reserve the information ex-
clusively for me-" To his surprise, the Ger
man replied that he hadn't found anything
so lar, but while quarrying on the opposite
side of the river. at McKee's Rocks, he had
found silver ore, though not in quantity co pay
for mining Pursuing the theme Mr.. Shafer
found that his man had considerable knowl.
edge of strata and minera!ogy, and it having
been reported from time to time that evidences
OF the existence of copper and silver had been
found on the south side of the river set Mr..
Shafer to thinking.
He throws out an observation that might, if
acted upon, lead TO important results. 1t is
that people living in the Allegheny Mountains
might be furnished with elementary know-
edge on geology, mineralogy, etc., sufficient
to make them students and they might find
something that is now overlooked. or re-
the State many thousand fold the cost
of instruction. While geologists may assure
us that the precious minerals lie four miles
below US, yet we know that in the southern
portion of the Appalachian chain there are gold
mines that pay for working. and they are not
four miles, geOlogically, below us. Geol-
Vsy TgS arghS" on as its ess ssisnoe Ss

gas deposits, and 100 years ago they did not tell
our ancestors where to lind coal Who can ven
ture to say that IN the 5000 feet of upheayal IN
PENNSYLVANIA there are no more valuable min.
erals than those already known?
Even if the knowledge suggested were diff
fused without gain in the direction suggested il
would not be lost. as almost any study is good

said that the study of geology would improve

breadth to his judgment While shooting az

Ont for the Secretnryship and Lively
Contest Expected.
At the second days session of the Grand
Council of the c. NJ. B. A. yesterday DIR.
M. G. DUNCAN, the Supervising Medical
Examiner, of Erie, captured the applause
of the house in presenting his report.
Grand Treasurer W. V. Woods also pre-
sented his report of the finances of the Or
ganization, which are in a prosperous con-
dition. j. B. Friedman, chairman of the
Finance Committee, submitted carefully
compiled report Of that committee.
One of the principal questions that came
before the convention WAS regarding the sep
arate beneficiary jurisdiction. There being
grand council or State having 1000 members
such grand council may apply for separate
beneficiary jurisdiction. The delegates were
opposed to the separation of councils, and
ing of fraternalship were extended to Michi-
gan and Ohio Grand Councils
There are great many candidates for offices
to be elected to-day The interest is in the
in the Council. Grand Secretary W. c.
shields IS candidate for reelection. ]. A.
Mayer. of Duke Center. the father of the
Ladies' Cathoiic Benevolent Associa-
are also candidates. The salary of this office
has been raised from $500 to 5000 per annum.
The suggestion of changing the time Of
Grand Council sessions from September to
August was lost, and September biennial ses-
sions, seemed to be the wish of the delegates.
The question OF rejection of applications for
membership after physicians examination,
for cause was decided to be out of the realm of
the society, and it was decided to censure
members who divulged any of the reasons for
the rejection of an applicant either for cause
or sickness.
The trustees will appear before the conven-
tion of the German Catholic clergy, which
meets here next month. and lay before them
the benefits to be derived from mem mbership in
spreading the field of the society. testi-
monial on the death of Cardinal Newman was
presented and ordered spread on the minutes
of the meeting.
A mass meeting was held in the evening in
Carnegie Hall, Allegheny. The hall was filled
and the meeting was a successful one in every
respect. The handsome stage was occupied by
the grand officers of the c. NJ. b. A. and
chorus composed of 40 ladies and gentlemen,
and organized for the occasion under the
leadership of Profs. Frauenheim and Schiller.
The speakers of the evening we're the Rev.

LOOKING FOR LEGISLATION.

Miners Will Ask Candidates for Support
for Certain Measures-Payments Every
Second Week.
The convention of miners of the district was
continued yesterday and brought to close.
Among the most important resolutions was a
declaration in favor of the State weekly pay
BILL which it is proposed to bring before the
next session of the Legislature. Committees
were instructed to draw the attention of candi-
dates for the Legislature to the measure and
seek their support in its favor.
The attention of candidates Is also to be
drawn to the mining inspection laws, and they
will be asked to have the law now In force in
the anthracite region extended to include the
bituminous districts. The operators being
credited with desire to make the position of
checkweighman State office, resolution was
adopted in favor of maintaining the position as

two weeks instead of sem-monthly. The
practice now is to extend the period to the next
Saturday,. so running on the pay to three
weeks. The next pay is on next Saturday and
1t has been resolved that if the operators will
not agree to adopt the suggestion. to stop all
work.

THE FIRST BREAK MADE.
An 0fhcial of the Pitt.burg Traction Road
Goes to the Duqnrsne.

George l.. McFarla1e, Secretary of the Pitts
burg Traction Company, has resigned the office
to accept an official position with the Duquesne
Traction Company. 1t is not known what the
office will be, but it is probable that Mr.. Nc
Farlane will become general manager or super
intendent ]. ]. Fraggardh. cashier of the
Pittsburg company, will probably succeed Mr..
McFarlane as Secretary. This is the first
break the DuQuesne company has made in the
ranks of the officials of the Pittsburg COM
pany but it is expected that quite number
of others will go with the new company as soon
as the road Is in operation.
In a conversation with a DISPATCH reporter
yesterday. Vice President George Rice, of the
Duquesne company. stated that there will be
no whirring noise in the cars on the new road
The cog wheels will be of bronze and steel,
whereas, in the Pleasant Valley cars brass is
used The wheels of the DuQuesne ears will be
of paper. 80 inches in diameter. or inches
larger than those on the Fifth avenue line.
The Pittsburg Traction Company received two
reserve cables yesterday. One is for the down.
town division. and the other will be used be-
tween Washington street and Oakland The
cables are now loaded on two iron cars especial
ly built for the purpose of transporting cable
coils. The larger is 70, $50 feet long, and the
smaller of the two ropes is $500 feet in length.
They are at the Duquesne freight depot.
