A VENERABLE VIOLIN.
Two Centuries Credited 10 1t and One Fully
Accounted For.
n

Two Centuries Credited 10 1t and One Fully
Accounted For.
Newcastle, Eng, Chronicle.l
A venerable violin must be that of which
London dealer is at present the happy
possessor. 1t is said to be 200 years old; and
although as to the history of the first 100
years of the instruments existence there
is some doubt, the second century
is fully accounted for. In 1894, Mr..
David Ker, an Irishman.. travelling
IN Italy, purchased it from Signor G. F.
Mosell, of Florence, for EOS. The original
receipt to this effect, written in italian. is
still in existence. with note by Mr.. Ker
appended in English-"Mr. Mosell thinks it
belonged to the court of Tuscany, and by
some means, perhaps improper, it has been
taken from it. He says it is of the first mer-
it, and he supposes in England it will be
worth 80 guineas. Florence, May 10, 1894. 4"
In 1883 it was bought BY its present
owner. Like wine, fiddle is supposed to
improve with age. Indeed, according to
DR.. Wendell Holmes. there are in violin
no fewer than 58 different pieces. These
pieces, at the outset, are strangers to each
other; and i: takes a century, more or less,
to make them thoroughly acquainted.

COST Says the Cznr Is n DIS.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH:
NEW YORK, February 2S.-The great
hall of the Cooper Union was crowded to-
night by the Russians and haters of Russian
tyranny, who came together at the call of
the Socialistic Labor party to pro-
test against the Siberian outrsges.
Hugh o. Pentecost said it was a
disgrace to human nature that such a man
as the Gar, who was personally responsible
for the Siberian atrocities, was alive. It
was equally a disgrace to human nature
that he could find men to do his bidding
and perpetrate such horrors, and it was also
disgrace to human nature that the rulers of
other nations should be on terms of amity
with such a monster. If the proposed
treaty OF extradition with Russia, by which
political offenders would be surrendered,
were passed, it would be q shame requiring
generations to wipe out.
Prot. De Leon said there were q dozen
Siberias here in the United States; that the
coal mines, tenements and factories were so
many Siberias, and that the proverb about
those who live in glass houses stood in the way
of our throwing stones at Russia. But,
he thought that as civilized countries have
the recognized diplomatic right to remon.
strate when nation sinks below the STAN
dard of civilization, SO, Russia having
fallen below the Kafir and the Zulu, the
Washington authorities should send
cablegram to st. Petersburg to this effec..
The Government Of the United States sees
with regret that the Government of RussIa
finds no better method to deal with political Of
tenders thon one contrary to the laws of civil
Ized countries.
He also called attention to the narrowness
of Behring straits, and the facility with
which an enemy could be transported across.

CAST IRON PIPE DEFENDED.

A Manufacturer Says They Arc Made Uni.

TO Resist Oxidizntion.
ST was rather amused" said local cast
iron pipe maker Yesterday, sat the tendency
of an article in The DISPATCH yesterday
to create the impression that the making Of
cast iron pipe is one OF the lost arts
in Pittsburg. The writer stated that
though this city is the iron center of the
world, the nearest cast iron pipe works is
located at Cleveland. Now, this is not true.
The National Pipe Foundry and Pipe
Works at Scottdale are making cast iron
pipe every day, and it is practically
Pittsburg company. The offices are located
in the Lewis block, and the capital comes
from this city. The works were built five
years ago, and the capacity has been in
creased SO that now they are melting 60 tons
of iron daily.
'For the last two years, in the face of
supplied Pittsburg and Allegheny with
cast iron pipe for water purposes. Miles OF
cast iron pipe have been laid in Pittsburg
to carry gas, and the results have been very
satisfactory.
sit is not true either that cast iron pipes
lack uniformity in thickness. With skilled
superintendents and workmen, modern ap-
pliances and improved methods, variations
in thickness are of infrequent occurrence.
By the old process which was abandoned
years ago, the pipes were made horizontally,
and then the material would sag in places
and they would not be uniform. Now
the pipes are manufactured in a vertical
position, and they could not be made any
truer. They are carefully gauged and
tested, and all that are not uniform are re-
jected. The city authorities will not allow
wrought iron pipes to be laid for gas or
water except in some cases.
"Another strong point in favor of cast
iron pipes is that they are made an inch
thick, while the wrought pipe are only a
fourth of an inch. The pipes run through
such variety of soils and come in contact
with so many acids in city that oxidiza-
tion sets in at once, and the thinnest pipe is
eaten up the quickest. For this reason the
city officials prefer cast iron pipe for water
and gas"
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1890-03-01

said he knew the name that Mr.. Labouchere
had offered to give to Sir Richard Webster,
and it was one that carried conviction as to
the correctness of the statements that had
been made.
Mr.. w. h. Smith called upon Mr.. O'Con-
nor to give the name in the interests OF
justice. Mr.. O'Connor declined upon the
ground that the name had been impaired to
him in confidence.
Mr.. Charles Hall, member for Cambridge,
declared that Lord Arthur Somerset was
prepared to quit London before his inter
view with Sir Dighton Probyn. The Mar
quis of Salisbury admitted that Sir Dighton
Probyn had previously advised Lord Arthur
Somerset to clear his character, but denied
any other communication.
AFRAID TO INVESTIGATE.
Other members having demanded COM
mittee of inquiry, Mr.. Smith, on behalf OF
the Government, declined to allow persons
against whom there was no evidence to be
pilloried and gibbeted and perhaps ruined
for life. He claimed the Judgment of the
House on Sir Richard Webster's answer.
The motion to report progress was lost by
2O2 to g.
The Chairman then put Mr.. Labouchere's
amendment proposing the reduction of the
credit, and Mr.. Labouchere's amendment
was rejected by 206 to 66.
Nj. Balfour promised Mr.. Sexton that he
would consult the Earl of Zetland on the re-
lease of the persons incarcerated in conse-
quence of the disturbance at Clongorey.

NOT VERY HUNGRY.
Indians Refuse TO Accept Supplies Except
rs an Absolute Grutuify-They Were
Supposed to be In Starv-
ing Condition

ing Condition.
WASHINGTON, February 28.-On Janu-
ary 4, 1890, Indian Agent Leahy, at the La
Pointe Agency, Wis, in response to inqui-
ries, informed the Indian Bureau officials by
letter that the Chippewa Indians on
the La Pointe reservation were in
a starving condition ard that ra-
lions and clothing should be
furnished at once. He says: "The 80 days
rations should be provided at once, as many
of these Indians are in starving condition,
and especially the women and children, the
aged aud otherwise feeble"
Upon this representation a resolution
was passed by Congress appropriating $751;
900 for the relief of these Indians. A guam
tity of the provisions and goods have
already been purchased. To-day the
Indian Commissioner received the fol-
lowing telegram from Special Agent Garner
who had been sent to the agency to assist in
distributing the supplies: "Agency Indians
refused to receive supplies or subsistence
unless as gratuity. No immediate necessity
for making any purchases. Instructions
requested" Agent Leahy also telegraphed
as follows:
''The Indians inform ne that they will
not mortgage their land or pine for supplies.
No supplies should be purchased"
The Indian officials are unable to
reconcile there statements, and have referred
the matter to the Secretary of the Interior
for instructions. The resolution appropria-
ting the SIS, 900 provided that the Govern
ment should be reimbursed out of monies
hereafter realized out of land and timber
now owned by the Indians seeking aid.
