inning themselves to the matter of the res
olution. They charged the speaker with
unfairness In restricting Democrats to sub
Jects In hand more closely than Republi-
cans. The speaker replied the Democrats
were more given to trangression than the
Republicans.

Y, NJ. C. A. EXTENSION,
Home Mission Work of the Association
Explained and Aided.

Home Mission Work of the Association
Explained md Aided.
A special meeting of tn. Young Mems
Christian Association was held last evening
in the Association Hall, on Seventh street,
for the purpose of listening to talk concern
ing the work of association extension. This
particular feature of the work may be called
the propaganda of the Y. NJ. c. A. There is
State Committee for the Commonwealth
and an International Committee, with head
quarters in New York, for North America
These committees aid young, small and
needy associations with counsel or money.
Rev. S. A. Taggart, of the East End. who
was for II years the State Secretary of
PENNSYLVANIA, addressed about 60 young
men. He said that the extension department
might be call.'d the home mission work of
the association. He remembered when there
were only 20 associations in the Common
wealth. Now there are 120, one in every
town of 10, 900 inhabitants. Pittsburg's asso-
citation he praised for its strength, excellence
of management and financial liberality. The
State Committee had always had its head
quarters in this city, and it was
center for association influence. It was in
this city that the work of association extern
sion originated. Mr.. Taggart was the first
State Secretary called to the work. He was
at it three years before any other State en-
tered upon such work. The international
work would soon, he said, extend to Mexico,
for associations were being organized there.
The International Committee also gets up
the year book. The work could not be done
by volunteers. Regular workers must be
employed and money was needed. He
urged all to give something, no matter how
little. While there were generous gifts,
they came in large sums from few mem
bers. Few of the young men were donating.
Within 80 minutes the gentlemen present
subscribed $500 for the work of association
extension. Mr.. H. K. Porter made a stir
ring speech to the young men, commencing
the work.

Arthur Swift Appointed Cashier - Ten
Carriers to be PromOted-Other Changes.
At o'clock Yesterday morning Arthur L.
Swift informed Postmaster Mexican that he
had concluded to accept the position of CASH
ier in the Pittsburg postofice. The post
master had had some anxiety as to the filling
Of that particular position on account of its
very heavy responsibilities, and expressed
himself as delighted over Mr.. Swift's &C
ceptance. After July Mr.. Swift's salary
will be s.. 500 per annum, and he will have an
assistant cashier, an extra official promised
Mr.. Mexican by the department. Mr.. Swift
has for ten years been confidential
secretary to Mr. r. c. Schmertz,
President of the Chamber of Commerce, and
of the glass firm of r. G. chmertz & Co.
Mr.. Swift was born near Meadville, and is
selfeducated. He was first q telegrapher,
then station agent, and then assistant gen.
eral freight agent Of Western PennsyI-
vania railroad. He resides in the Fourth
ward, but has never been identified with
politics. His appointment pleases the glass
interest very much, he having been assistant
secretary of the Glass Manufacturers Asso-
whom Mr.. Swift will succeed upon the 1st
of April, has been a competent official. Mr..
Swift furnished bond of S25, 900 Yesterday.
1t is an open secret that Mr.. Swift will be
married on the 9th of the present month to
Miss Thompson, OF Fin1ayville. His pros
pective BRIDE belongs to an old and wealthy
;amily, and is a charming young lady in
every sense Of the word.
1t is whispered that Colonel Sam Moody,
Passenger Agent of the Pennsylvania lines,
has been offered the very responsible posi-
tion of Assistant Postmaster of Pittsburg,
and that he is taking time to consider the
matter in all its bearings.
United States Inspectors Griggs and
Holmes left for Washington last evening,
where their report will be made to the Sec
ond Postmaster General. Contrary to sup
position the formal transfer of the Office
from Mr.. Lsrkin to Nj. Mexican was not
the sole business of the Inspectors in Pitts
burg. They will make formal report, and
it is learned that they will recommend that
Mr.. Mexican be allowed % new clerks for
use in the interior of the building, and that
many other little matters will be smoothed
over. A lady will hereafter attend to the
business of the general delivery ladies' win
dow. This will be an innovation, and it is
hoped will prevent giddy girls from cluster
ing around the window to catch glimpse
of handsome young man within. From
the present sub-list ten carriers will be pro-
NOTED next Wednesday. One carrier will
be assigned to each of the sub-stations, one
will be used in mail collection and the re-
naming six will be utilized in lessening
the work of old city carriers. This will
necessitate practical revision of present
routes

On Which Judge Bailey May EnliEhten
Voters.
Since ex-Judge Bailey has rushed into
print to answer certain inSinuations regard
ing himself and his business ability and ac-
tions, he might enlighten the public by an
swering the following questions:
Are you a candidate before the people for
the Office of Mayor oil Pittsburg?
Is it not a fact that Johns McCleave, at
your request, wrote a letter on the same sub
ject as Messrs. Dickey and Lazear?
If so why was the name not published?
In your open letter as published, you stat
ed, after naming Messrs. Dickey, Miller and
Lazear, that Johns McCleave "was the only
other attorney in the case" Now, is it not
a fact that Hampton, Scott & Gordon,
Thomas D. Chantler and others were at
torneYs in the matter of record, and filed ex-
ceptiOns to the second and>hnal account, as
did those whom you named?
II so why did they not sign the "Dlckey.
Lazear" letter?
Do not the papers prepared and filed for
record by Messrs. Lazear, Dickey, Miller
and McCleave and other attorneys specific
ally charge you with the unfaithful per-
formance of the trust accepted by you as as
signee OF Graf, Bennett & Co.?
Were not the orders of Court which you
say you were compelled to obey simply the
permission of Court obtained by you by
virtue of your own application, petition and
oath, in order that you might accomplish
the purpose which you did, namely, the dis
position of the property of Graf, Bennett q
Co., in the manner and for the price re-
ceived?
Notwithstanding the said orders OF Court
are you not responsible Tor any mismanage-
ment OF the estate and would not your bonds
men chad you given bond) be likewise re-
sponsible?
Is it not fact that other communications
passed between yourself and Messrs. Dickey
and Miller in relation to the Graf, Bennett
& Co. arrangement?
If so why did you not publish the name?
