QUAY IN PITTSBURG,

The National Chairman Sees some OF His
Friends-Mr. DaIzeII Comes Out Openly
Against Him-He says n Quay Nominee
Means Defeat in the State.
Senator NJ. S. Quay came up from Beaver
yesterday morning to attend to some bank
ing business, and incidentally to see some OF
the workers. He registered at the Seventh
Avenue Hotel, and spent the day in receiv-
ing his friends. Among his callers were
Postmaster Mexican, Collector Warmcastle,
Captain John A. Reed, candidate for the
Pension Agency; n. S. Williams, James
Bradley, and many others of the Senator's
adherents in Pittsburg.
1t had been given out that an important
conference was to be held, but this was not
true Most of the Government patronage
has been distributed in this neighbor-
hood.
Congressman Ray called on the Senator,
and they talked for awhile over the post
mastership at McKeesport, but nothing
definite was reached. Mr.. Ray is anxious
to have the fight settled as soon as possible,
for his friends realize that his hesitapcy is
iniuring his influence with his constituency.
No deals were made or even talked OF, and
as a general rule the Senator steers clear of
Pittsburg when there is anything big on the
carpet.
When seen by a DISPATCH man Mr..
Quay, as usual, said he had nothing to give
out for publication. Lew Emery's attack
on Delamater did not seem to worry him,
st least he gave no signs.
Yesterday Congressman Dalzell declared
his position most emphatically in Washing
ton. He said that he had no use for Mr..
Quay, and hereafter he would fight him
uo &c Tar
Allegheny county will support him
for Governor, but after the Ma
jor he will favor any good
man who is a representative of anti-Quay-
ism. Mr.. Dalzell concluded by saying that
in his opinion no man could be elected Gov
ernor of Pennsylvania under the existing
circumstances as the nominee of Quay. THE
DISPATCH correspondent at Washington
telegraphed last evening that Con-
gresham Dalzell admitted he had
been correctly quoted, and he
would stand over it. tFor sometime there
have been rumors of revolt if Delamater
is nominated, and it is alleged by some that
the middle ground taken by Senator Quay
recently that he is supporting no one for
Governor, was for the purpose of relieving
Delamater Lew Emery is an open and
avowed enemy, but even his friends admit
that his judgment is so often at fault on ac-
count of his rashness that be is more liable
to help than hinder.
The story which came from Philadelphia
yesterday that Quay was disguised with the
management of Chairman Andrews while
the National Chairman was in Florida, is
generally discredited by the Senator's
friends in Pittsburg. They are 10th to be-
lieve that certain complaints have been
made, and they insist that Andrews gen.
eralship is satisfactory.

AN EXCITING ELECTION.
Rector Mnxwelrs Friends Display Somo
New Figures In Church Fights.

Rector Mnxwell's Friends Display Some
New Figures In Church Fights.
There is promise of an exciting election
at Trinity Church tomorrow morning for
vestrymen. 1t is reported that the friends
of Mr. Maxwell will spring a new list Of
names in opposition to the old vestrymen.
In this election only the male pew holders
can vote. There are 172 pews in the church,
only 81 of which are occupied by pew
holders, leaving So unoccupied.
The electioneering plan Of Mr.. Maxwelrs
friends, it is alleged, is to sell sittings to
Mr.. Maxwell's male friends. The sittings
cost s., and allow the holders the privilege
of voting. They hope IN this manner to
elect a new vestry, which will favor Mr.:
Maxwell's return. Among those who will
appear on the new ticket are: John Robb,
Esq, McClurg Hays, Wharton Mcknight,
Ed Mcknight, Charles G. Schumaker, W.
R. Boatt and Thomas Mckee.

HE ALLEGES CRUELTY.

Agent Dean Claims That Thomas Daily
Abused His Daughter.
Thomas Daily was arrested last night and
gave bail for hearing on Tuesday before
Alderman Warner on charge of cruelty.
The information was made by Superintend-
ent NJ. J. Dean, of the Anti-Cruelty So
ciety. who alleges that the defendant abuses
his 13-year-old daughter, Mary Daily, be-
cause she refused to marry man named
Michael Baetty, &c years of age. Baetty
boarded with the defendant at the latter's
house on Twenty-third street, and bis name
was brought into prominence sometime
since by his application for marriage Ii
cense to wed the daughter of Daily.
Mr.. Dean intertered, and the application
was refused on account of the girls youth
and her unwillingness to marry.

MUST TEACH HYGIENE.

Superintendent Luckey Instructed to En-
force Temperance Instruction Laws.
At the meeting of the Committee on Text
Books and Course of Instruction on Friday
evening at the Central Board of Education
rooms, resolution was adopted requiring
the City Superintendent to see that the laws
respecting the teaching of physiology and
hygiene be enforced in all schools.
The resolution was not brought out be-
cause there has been any neglect practiced
by any of the teachers in those studies, but
because statements have been made in GER
tain quarters that the children were not be-
ing instructed as they should be.

A SLOW MARKET.

Removing the Tickers HASN'T Produced
Much of Change.
The markets have been SO slow during the
past week that brokers say that the effect of
the removal of the tickers from the bucket
shops is not apparent. The business has
not increased, but the legitimate operators
attribute this result to the dullness of trade.
Wheat was inclined to be little gay YES
terday. but soon subsided.
The brokers admit that the bucket shop
dealers are a sharp set, and they are in
doubt if they will lose much BY the opera

FIRST SATURDAY. IN JUNE.
The Republican County Committee ARA ges
for the Primaries.

The RepubIIcnn County Committee Arrnnges
for the Primaries.
The Republican County Committee met
for short time yesterday and decided to
hold the primaries for State and county
officers on the first Saturday in June, and
the convention will follow on Tuesday. It
was thought best that time could be saved
and both the State and county officials could
be voted for at the same time
A committee of five, of which George Y.
Mckee and George Won Bonhorst are mem
bers, was appointed from that part of Allie
gheny county in the Twenty-fourth Con-
gressional District. to look after affairs in
that section.

IF KAISER Is WE'LL ENOUGH,
Noxdon, Who Hit Him With Hatcher, Will
Have Hearing To-Day.

Have a Hearing To-day.
John J. Noxdon, the man arrested for as
saulting George Kaiser, the Southside hotel
keeper, with a hatchet Friday night will
have hearing to-day before Magistrate
Brokaw, if Mr.. Kaiser is able to appear.
The injured man said last night that he be-
lieved Noxdon's attack was for the purpose
of robbery. He had $500 ia satchel in his
hand at the time, and says that as Noxdon
kept the bar for him for a long time he
would know about the time some money was
in the house.
A charge of felonious assault, and perhaps
for attempted robbery, will be made against
Noxdon.

A railroad man said yesterday that now
that the question of differential on lake

officials are not so sanguine; in fact hope
that the issue will never be revived.

The Struggles of Life.

From the cradle to the grave life is full of
struggles. Some struggle for riches, some for
pleasure, some for honor, and others struggle
TO regain that greatest of all blessings-health;
and in their efforts they often resort to means
which place it farther out of their reach. They
take drastic compounds. which shock the sys-
TEN, or violent minerals which poison by de-
grees thus the vital energies are weakened and
the fountains OF life polluted. Nature provides
remedies, and it is from the vegetable kingdom
that DR.. TUFTS Liver Pills derive their ingredi-
ents, and there is the happy certainty that if
they do no good they do no harm. But of their
efficacy thousands who have been cured of
diseased liver. kidneys, spleen, stomach and
bowels live to-day to testify.
