DEATH IN A PRISON CELL.

Pnt McGoIdrick Dies of Consumption af
RiversIde-Ths story of His Crime and
sentence-He Becomes Insane After Six
Months Confinement.
Death yesterday reached another convict
inside the prison walls of the Western
Penitentiary. This time it was Patrick
McGoldrick. He was so known to the
world, but there he answered to No. 1878.
He was doing a seven years sentence for the
murder of John Holloway on the night Of
January II, 1887. He struck him on the
head with paving stone and the man died
on January %.
When Officers Pat Murphy and William
McClelland went to arrest McGoldrick he
and his brother fought the officers so
viciously that the officers drew their re-
volyers, one shot striking the brother in the
back, injuring him only slightly. On the
23d of April, 1887, he was sentenced. The
testimony taken by the Coroner at the in
quest held last evening showed that Nc
Goldrick, who was only q years Of
age when committed, developed symp-
toms Of temporary insanity within
SIX months after his confinement These
symptoms recurred about once month until
last February, when McGoldrick was
afflicted with pneumonia, which by the lat
ter part of April developed into consump-
ton: Since April last cGoldriok has been
insane, and has been allowed special priv
ileges, his friends and relatives being ad-
mltted to see him at all times and his
parents being even allowed to spend the
night with him when he was particularly
low and not expected to live.
One OF the witnesses before the Coroner's
jury was Ed slattery, convicted of being an
accessory to the murder Of Henry Myers, at
Schuetzen Park several years ago. He is a
day nurse at the penitentiary hospital.
The verdict Of the Coroner's inquest was
death from natural causes, exonera ting the
prison officials from all blame.

FLEEING FROM FIRE.
TWO HOUSES BURN AND The INMATES
BARELY ESCAPE DEATH.

One Woman Jumps From n Window and
Brsnks n LeE-The Man Who Tried to
Light the Fire With Kerosene severeIy
Burned.
An explosion followed by fire, a number
of accidents and thrilling escapes from the
flames combined to make things lively on
the Brownsville road opposite South Fourth
street yesterday afternoon.
james Dineen, a young man about 20
years old, tried to light the fire with gasoline
There was a terrific explosion, and in a mo-
ment the house was in flames. Young Dineen
was severely burned and so bewildered that
friends sought only TO convey him to a
place of safety, where his injuries could be
dressed. Later he was taken to the South
side Hospital. About two-thirds of his
body is one mass OF burns, and his recovery
is doubtful.
The house was of wood and burned like
tinder. oquick did the flames spread that
not a thing was saved. The house was,
owned and occupied BY Michael Dineen.
The loss is about s., 600, covered by 81 900
insurance.
Before the occupants of the adjoining
house could realize what had happened, it
also was in flames. 1t was occupied by
Mrs. Sophia Johnston, widow with seven
children, and owned by Judge Mellon.
Mrs. Johnston was upstairs in the second
story, and in her frenzy leaped out of the
window to the ground. Her left leg was
broken and she was prostrated by the nerv-
GUS shock. The loss will aggregate 81. 800
aud leaves Mrs. Johnston homeless.
While all this was going on, the FIRE de-
partment and police were BY no means idle.
Alarm 131 was sent in, and an engine
rushed TO Fourth street. A hose was
dragged up the steep hill, and water thrown
on the buildings in time to save the upper
one adjoining the two on fire. 1t is owned
by George Glover and occupied by Thomas
Collins. The latter's loss will be about
$500 Tor household goods damaged.
-Four horses were attached to another en-
gine. and the trip via the Brownville road
made, but the hill hose had succeeded in
preventing the fire from spreading.
Emil Hick, who lives near the scene of
the fire, was at work in divers rod mill
when the alarm was given. He thought of
his wife and babes and rushed to the scene.
When half way up the hill he fell from ex-
hsusuon, induced by his over-heated con-
dition and intense excitement. He was car
ried into house nearby, and it will be some
time before he RECEIVERS.

A TALK ON THE TARIFF,

Representatives Burrows Favors the Duty
on Steel Rails as Fixed by the House.
Representative j. c. Burrows, of Michi-
gan, in few minutes conversation last
night while waiting his train, said there
was no doubt that the so-called force bill
would pass this session of Congress. "The
Republican garty," said Mr.. Burrows. "has
made an issue of this bill. If it fails to
pass it, it deserves never again to be re-
turned to power. 1t deserves to fall and
never again secure the confidence Of the
people. What is sought for In the bill is a
free ballot and a fair count, and if Repub-
icans cannot secure these they deserve to
fall with their hands in their mouths and
their mouths in the DUST
Regarding the tariff bill Mr.. Burrows
said that the duty had been fixed BY the
House at the lowest point which it was
thought would ever be necessary to equaIize
the conditions of trade in England and
here. He worked hard for the tin tariff
clause for the reason that he was protee-
zionist by principle and BY conviction, and

At 1890 o'clock the reception began at
the clubrooms on Duquesne way, and hand
shaking and the passage of compliments
lasted for two hours. The rooms were lib
orally decorated with flowers, evergreens
and enthusiasm. Some of the Democrats
present were: G.. Zug, T. j. keenan,, Srs.,
J. NJ. Gufy, County Chairman Watson,
John McClelland, 1. Hirsch, Colonel
Echols, Alex. Wilson, candidate for County
Commissioner, John c. Shoemaker, Domi-

A BIG TERM OF COURT.
Straw Bail Bonds Prevent a Surplus in the
County Treasury.

Straw Bail Bonds Prevent Surplus in the
County Treasury.
1t is expected that the Quarter Sessions
Court will close about tomorrow evening.
and it will show a greater number of cases
disposed of than at any previous term. The
District Attorneys office turned into the
County Treasury more revenue than was
ever previously received from this source,
something over 5000. This result is mainly
owing to the departure in the matter of side
tracking redundant witnesses.
In this connection it is pertinent 10 re-
mark that if straw bail were not allowed in
magistrates offices, and people on forfeited
bail bonds made come to the center or go to
Jail, the county treasury would soon be in
better shape or there would be hegira of
scoundrels. This matter of going bail for
criminals mas become farce. 1t is scarce
worth while to go to the trouble of forfeit
ing bail bonds nowadays, as they are not
worth anything as a rule, and no one is
punished for thus throwing dust into the
eyes OF Justice.

A POLISH ROMANCE.

heart in the Presence of His Rival.
A romantic tale was brought 10 light by
Alderman Hartman last night. Frank
Sagusky, Pole, is charged with aggra-
vated assault and battery by francesca
Kofka. The two were engaged to be mar
ried, and the license had been obtained two
weeks ago. Shortly after, rival lover, in
the person of Franz Heidick, appeared and
made such an impression on Francesca that
she renounced her promised husband.
When Sagusky called on his affianced
wife last Sunday night he found his rival
in her company. He pleaded with her to
leave Heidick, but she refused. He then
drew some weapon and declared that he
would kill her, but she escaped from him.
Sagusky was committed to Jail for hearing
at court.

Kicks Pro and Con Filed on the Opening of

The Board of Viewers held a meeting
yesterday to present to the property owners
the final assessment for the opening of Nc
Kee Place from Forbes to Wakefield streets.
Considerable property is involved and the
meeting was largely attended, there being
numerous protests against the opening. The
protests came manly from the residents on
Brook street. 30-foot street which is to be
widened to 80 feet to connect Mckee Place
with Forbes street.
The property owners on that street claim
it will be no advantage to them to have the
improvement made. The parties who want
the improvement claim that they have now
no opening to Forbes except by Ward street
which, it is claimed, is a back street, built
up with stables and will never amount to
an ything as u thoroughfare, being only LAT
fees from Meyran avenue, which is a much
superior street. The same parties claim
that Mckee Place is good street in good
place and they desire to make it better.

who would go if it were not for the jam. NV

ness to 60, but cannot 60 with them in
daylight and l cannot trust them alone,
and will not 60 with them at night, for in
such crowd no one can tell what accident
may happen. People may say they
don't want to go, but thou
sands of the best do, nevertheless,
and really there is nothing to be ashamed of
in the expression. as visit is educating to
anyone whose mind is capable of e1pan-

from past experience that the immensity of
the attendance is not only uncomfortable,

Another Successful Event in the Democratic 0ganiSa-
tiOn's History.

Towering head and shoulders above the
hundreds of people surrounding him, with
his head thrown back and the light of mer-
riment dancing in his eyes, his right arm
working convulsively like the handle of a
town pump, and his left hand in the bosom
of his double-breasted trock coat, stood ex-
Governor Pattison yesterday afternoon on
the stage at Silver Lake Grove. Old men
and little misses, staid matrons and young
sters barely out of short trousers, young
men and their best girls, crowded around
the Ex-Governor for q shake of his hand.
They were not content with one grasp, but
edged around to the end of the procession,
pushing and jostling for another grip of the
hand of the man who will lead the De-
mocracy to victory or defeat.
The event was the annual fete champetre
of the Randall Club. and was supposed to
be an occasion of dancing and an outing for
the members and their friends,

Ex-Governor Pattison was brought in as
a side issue, but he had no sooner reached
the ground than the fete itself was lost sight
of and everything was Pattison. The dane
ing ceased, the conversation of friends in
terrupted, and the little tete-a-tetes oflovers
and sweethearts, ruthlessly broken up, by
the appearance of the man from 'Phila-
delphia. For fully half an hour after his
arrival, the people were almost wild and the
ovation given Mr.. Pattison will be an epoch
in his life that time cannot etface. He may
be elected Governor of Pennsylvania and
may in time be the executive of the nation,
