Thomas 81. McGowen, and another Adams,
whose present home is toward the rising
sun somewhere, have about decided to buy
the Bowers property. at the corner of Fifth
avenue and Boundary street, or Moorhead' s
lane. j. 7. Bowers is said to be man who
knows all about the project, but he wasn't
at home when called on. A gentleman who
was at home, however, said he understood
that the object of a number of horse lovers,
and who owned good horses. was to put up
palatial stable, and have the surroundings
to correspond. Horses will be stabbed on
the ground floor, vehicles kept on the Sec
ond, and there will be dining room, parlor
and sleeping chambers on the third floor,
for the accommodation of coachmen.
Whether part of the design is to back up
the elopement business or not, is not stated.
But it Is intended that coachmen shall
live over the club stable. This will be con-
nected by telephone with the residences of
the different proprietors so that they can
summon their carriages whenever they want
them. The local projectors live in the vi
cinity in Shadyside and BeLlefeld.
The Bowers property, which is said to be
the site chosen, is something over an acre in
extent, and it is said its price is S35, ,0O0
For some reason no one found seemed desi-
rous of giving definite information. The
scheme possesses some manifest advantages,
not the least of which is that valuable
horses, in case of sickness, would have all
the advantages they at present find in livery
stables prompt attention-which they are
not likely to get while the coachman is
asleep. The expense of maintenance you'd
also be cheaper than boarding atlivery sta

WHY HOLBROOK RESIGNED.

Alleged Interference With His Manage
meut-Gcorge Grisco com EIny succeed Hol.
brook - Chief Engineer Kelly May be
the Next Mnu TO Step Out.
Considerable speculation was INDUCED in
BY the railroad men yesterday as 10 the cause
of the resignation of Elliott Holbrook,
General Superintendent of the Pittsburg
and Lake Erie Railroad. Mr.. Holbrook
has been with the company for three years,
and it has been known that there was fric-
tion at different times between he and Presi-
dent Newell.
About two weeks ago Chief Engineer
Kelly, of the road, BY order of Mr.. Hol-
brook, sent out circulars to the effect that
Supervisor Cochrane and his assistant had
resigned their positions. Mr.. Cochrane re-
ceived one of the circulars, and as he had no
intimation of being removed and certainly
no intention of resigning, he politely wrote
to Mr.. Hoibrook that there must be some
mistake. The circulars were signed by
Chief Engineer Kelly and had the approval
of Mr.. Holbrook. In objecting to his being
removed, Mr.. Cochrane also wrote to James
NJ. Bailey, assistant to President Newell.
Mr.. Bailey is acting as President of the
road in the absence of Mr.. Newell in Eu-
rope, and as the company has no Vice
President, he has been given the authority
o. the chief executive officer. Not wishing
to have a row on his hands, Mr.. Bailey
wrote to Mr.. Holbrook, stating that it was
the wish of Mr.. Newell that no changes be
made until the latter returns home.
Mr.. Holbrook has made record for HIM
self for acting promptly. Thinking the in
reference on the part of Mr.. Bailey to be
so. AS this was not the first case of the
kind, Mr.. Holhrook wrote his resignation.
Until Mr.. Newell returns no action can be
taken on it. The President of the road will
not be home for month yet. 1t was also
stated yesterday that Mr.. Kelly would fol-
low Mr.. Holbrook if the latter's resignation
was accepted. The former came here from
the "Nypano" road while Mr.. Holbrook
came from the New York and New Elgland.
The rumor could not be traced to any
official source, but it was stated on the streets
that Georges Griscom late proprietor of the
Monongahela House and Vice President of
the PittSburg, CHARTERS and Youghiogheny
road, would be Mr.. Holbrook's successor
Mr. Griscom was Division Superintendent of
the Pittsburg, Ft Wayne and Chicago road
when j. d. Laying was running it. He has
held other railroad positions and it is said
would ruake good man in the place. He
is now in the wire business, being a Joint
partner in new mill in the suburbs
of Chicago. The other partners are Youngs-
town parties.
Mr.. Kelly was formerly with the Pitts
burg and Western road. An effort was
made to see him yesterday and ascertain if
he contemplated resigning. He could not
be found in his Office, being out on the road
at the time.

business demanded it. He WAS licensed in
1887 and 1855, but refused by Judge White.
b. c. Wilson, of the Seventh Avenue Hotel,
was asked only il he was the sole proprietor.
He said he was.
William J. Wright, Nos and 4 Masters
alley now licensed, was told by Judge Ewing
that he had been told that he had no restaurant
at all. Mr.. Wright said that he fed from 100 to
l50persons daily, and kept the best.
NO NEED TO WASTE TIME.
Frank X. woog, lately one of the proprietors
of the Monongahela House, applied for No.
5U4 smithfield street, the entrance number to
the new Hotel Eiffel, which he is preparing to
open. He will have IS rooms. Judge Ewing
said: 1.-TWO years ago we inquired pretty fully
into Mr.. Woog. 1 guess we don't need to take
time now"
William witherow, of the Hotel Duquesne,
was kept only long enough to say that his
partners are James P. Witherow ana Thomas
Dugan.
Matt Weiss, proprietor of the saloon and res
taurant at No. 432 Smithfeld street. was asked
only few unimportant questions. This set
tied the work of the day. 1t was only 3:45
O'Clock.

A TALK ON ELECTRICITY.
MIR. stillweIl Shows How All the Dangers
Can be Avoided.

Can be Avoided.
At the meeting of the Engineers Society
last evening a committee of five was ap-
pointed to cooperate with the Mining En-
gineers' Society to assist in entertaining the
visiting members of the Iron and Steel In
stitute of Great Britain next September.
A petition requesting Allegheny Councils
to pass an ordinance granting the United
States Government a strip of land for an
abutment for the Herr's Island dam was
read, and presented to the members for sign
ing. A number of the members attached
signatures.
Mr.. L. B. Stillwell read an interesting
paper on the distribution of light and power
by electricity. He stated that statistics COM
piled by the secretary OF the National Elec-
trio Light Association in 1889 showed that
there was in use then in the country 237, OH
arc lights, 2, 704, ,76S incandescent lights and
100 street railways operated by electricity,
covering 579 miles of railway. These rep
resented a capital of $275, 900 ard a
strength equal to 800, 600 horse power.
The great question, he said, was the utili-
zation of electricity without serious danger.
The greatast danger was from the careless
ness of employees and the desire of local
companies for large profits resulting in i'm
perfect insulation of the wires.

believing in all the church laws when he is
convinced that some are not needed, but
some of his fellows happen to differ from
him?
Rev. D. S. Little felt that suspension as
long as the married relation was maintained
was the only remedy. He said that every
minister in the church was under oath TO
sustain the rules of faith and be guided by
them. DR.. Ewing had disobeyed very
vital one. He was not vindictlve, and had
no feeling against the Doctor, but this was
the light in which he viewed the marriage.
He agreed with the Rev. MIR. McCrorv that
a man had right to think for himself, but
it was we'll to be governed by the opinions
of the majority in such serious matters.
A STRONG PLEA FOR MERCY.
Rev. Barclay appealed to his brethren not
to act like Shylock in e1acting the pound
of flesh and the last drop of blood. but to
temper their actions with mercy. After a
lively tilt between DR.. Mclean and the
Moderator, who claimed that the old gentle
man had already spoken twice, but the
Chair would indulge him, which remark
the doctor warmly resented, the vote was
taken.
At the evening meeting DR.. Mclean
thought it was best for the interests of the
Sixth U. P. Church that DR.. Ewing's resig-
nation should be accepted, and he made a
motion accordingly. The commission ap-
pointed by the church to represent them,
Messrs. Dempster, Dick, Frazer, Armstrong
and Monroe, advised a separation for the
good of people and preacher. All these
gentlemen made short speeches, in which
they professed warm friendship for DR..
Ewing, and regretted that the event had
occurred to mar their happy relations. On
the advice of the commission the motion
was passed without a dissenting voice, and
the Rev. J. w. Wallace was appointed to
preach in the church next Sunday and de-
clare the pulpit vacant.
The other business transacted was hearing
lot of reports and the licensing of Mr..
Douthell to preach. The young man met
with considerable opposition for awhile, be-
cause he had not fulfilled all the church re-
quirements, but there were extenuating cir
cumstances, and he was finally admitted.

A Bitter Fight in Harrisburg Over the POST

wny-Thc Duquesne Company Not An.
tagonistic-How 1t Stands.
The projectors of the Postofice and Schen-
ley Park Electric Railway say that all is
plain sailing now. They had a rattling
fight in Harrisburg, the Attorney General
having filed objections. but not, as one of
the corporators says, on behalf of the Du-
quesne Traction Company.
1t appears that there was some politics
mixed in the business, but the political in
fuence opposing was not that generally
supposed. The corporator mentioned the
names of Senator Quay and the Elkins-
Widener combination, but said they found
as the contest progressed that they hadn't
a sound leg to stand upon, as the road, he
said, was shown to be neither pincher nor
a paralleiler.
c. L. Magee was asked for an expression
of opinion in regard to the new road. He
replied that he was not opposed to it, and
then relapsed into silence and was oblivious
to further inquiry.
c. f. jain, one of the corporators, who
took a flying trip to Harrisburg during the
fight, said: "The road is a certainty, and
will be built with all possible speed. There
can be no fatal objection urged. as it is
necessity along most OF the route traversed.
1t is assured OF dividend-pay patronage

ances that more people want
stock than can be accommodated at the

of Councilmanic opposition. %

SETTLED ALL DIFFICULTIES,

A Compromise Reached by the Day Nursery
Managers and sterrett Union-Ir Take,
$1,000 10 Heal the DiGercnccs-AII-
Done for Harmony.
The little building occupied by the ALLIE
gheny Day Nursery, on North avenue, was
the scene of a long continued and heated
debate yesterday afternoon, the result Of
which was that the difficulties existing
between the Sterrett Union and the Board
of Managers of the Allegheny Day
Nursery were settled by the conference of
the two committees which had been ap-
pointed at a meeting Of the board on
Monday. Mrs. Samuel Sloan, Mrs. james
Arthurs and Miss Mary Stevenson repre-
sented the Sterrett Union, and Mrs o. W.
Stevenson, Mrs. G. B. Hill and Mrs
Charles KieEer the board, at the confer
ence.
The proposition which had been sub
mitted from the Sterrett Union to the board
on Monday, offering the board $500, and
that the separation should take place April
1, was considered at length. An adjust
ment of the difficulties were at last
brought about by compromise in
regard to the money consideration.
The committee representing the board
asked for $1,000 in place of $500,
and the request was granted on condition
that all the property of the nursery, and the
nursery itself, be given up to the union. The
committees then adjourned and reported to
the Sterrett Union the action which had
been taken. The members of the union ac-
cepted the conditions, but held that it was
done only for the sake of harmony and
friendship, and that everything they did for
the board was a concession in the spirit of
peace, and not in the belief that the board
was entitled to it, as the constitution of the
Day Nursery shows that the Board of Man.
ayers is responsible to Sterrett Union Tor all
reports, and must be guided by instructions
from the union.
The board will call a special meeting soon,
and a committee will be appointed to select
a site for an Independent nursery.
