The fourth reunion Of the Fourth Penn

preciated by the l5O veterans present. many of
whom had not seen each other since the war
closed. In the afternoon they formed at
the Seventh Avenue Hotel and with fife and
drum marched to the Union Veteran Legion
Hall. DR.. e. p. SeIp presided at the social
gathering. Much discussion was indulged in
over Bates History of the Pennsylvania Volun-
teers, and the veterans decided that at least ID
per cent more men were killed than Mr.. Bates
has reported.
A statement made by the Sixteenth Cavalry,
at their recent reunion in Franklin, that they
were the only cavalry regiment that captured
fort in the late war from this State, was COM
bated by Major Maitland, of OIL City. who
claimed that the Fourth had accomplished
such a feat, and they took more prisoners than
they had men in the regiment.
Inc next reniOn will be held at
Butler. and the members in the vicinity
were placed on the Committee of Arrange
Major J. b. Maitland; Vice President, Theodore

CONSTABLES ON A STRIKE.
A MOVEMENT TO SECURE MORE FEES IN
THIS COUNTY.

The Officers Say the Laws Are Defective
and They Cann't Make RespectabIe
LiviuE-PermanenT NJ Organic t:on ForIned d
Denounced the Commissioners.
The constabies of Allegheny county met in
Common Council Chamber last night. IA,
Heiner said the object of the meeting was to
effect permanent organization of the
county constabulary to endeavor to secure
through the State Legislature a new fee
bill, one that would be as fair
as that of Philadelphia county. He
said the movement for more money
originated in Berks county, and was
being extended through every county in the
State. In Lehigh county the coustables
made a demand for better pay, and the
County Court decided favorably, but the Su
preme Court reversed the decision. Constable
O'Bren. Of the Third ward, moved to form a
permanent organization, which was unani-
mously agreed TO.
Constable Rivers, of the Seventeenth ward
moved the movement inaucurated in Berks
county be approved, and that the Allegheny
county organization cooperate in the work
This motion also UNANIMOUSLY agreed
TO and speeches were made by Constables
Wiser, Of Miffiin TO nship Bowden of the
sixteenth ward, Conlev. of the Ninth ward and
COnstableS from McKeesnort Braddock and
justice of the present system of fees Chair
man II elmer produced 4 list of fees paid i'm
Allegheny county and compared them with
Philadelphia county, showing that in the latter
the compensation Is better for all classes of
work and fees are allowed for services that are
not mentioned here at all.
y motion was made to assess each constable
in the county S2 to pay the fee of an attorney
Tor directing The organization and preparing a
proper Dlll Tor presentation in the Legislature
as well As to pay expenses of correspondence
with other counties. The country constabIes
thought they should not pay as much as The
city officers. The constable from Lower ST
Clair declared he could scarcely get 81 IN his
district, and the member from the Third ward
ayerred that there had only been one case in
his district in tve months, and even that was
gwen to ar outsider. IL was finally decided
10 assess S2 on the constables of the two cities
and 81 each on those from the boroughs and
townships. 1t was decided to have another
meeting on the next court return day, when all
the county cOnstables will have to come TO
town.

AN ADVANCED PRICE.
FRENCH KID GLOVES TO BE AMONG THE
LUxURiES.
A Representative of Foreign Mandatory
Receives Notice of an Increnre. Which.

A Representative of n Foreign HIaunfactory
Receives Notice of an Increnr e. Which.
He Says, is Due 10 the New Tariff
Law. ,-... .-..
The effect of the tariff tax had practical
illustration yesterday. Mr.. Gail, the repre-
sentative of the firm that manufactures the
Dent kid gloves, in France, received cable
gram telling him to increase the price OIL gen.
tlemen's kid gloves from 81 to 81 80 per dozen,
an advance of about 10 per cent: Mr.. Gail states
that he sells about $4,000 worth of gloves in
Pttsburg annually, and there are numerous
other firm. doing business with the local mer-
chants so that there are probably S5O. 900 worth
of gloves disposed of here yearly. This would
De an increase in cost of about S5 600.
"Of course the retailer is not going to lose
this, said Mr.. Gail. and as result the advance
in price goes on the buyer, who thus pays the
Government the amount Of the Increased tariff
tax. l took numerous orders for gloves at the
advanced price to-day, and do not think the tax
will hurt our sales to any great extent.
Il don't understand why the tax was in
creased" continued Mr.. Gail. There are no
gloves of this quality made in Americs, and
If there were any factories in this country
there Is no raw material to be had here. All
the kids are secured from the south of France,
where many people make a business of raising
the animals for the skins. The curing and
tanning is also done by a process only known
in France. and that has great deal to do with
the extra quality of the French gloves.
Probably the idea in putting on the heavy
tariff was TO make glove of lamb skin, which
is very like the kid, but even the finer grade of
these gloves come from England and France.
Another thing, there are no first-class glove
cutters in America. In Europe a glove cutter
serves an apprenticeship Of five years without
pay, and no Americans will do that. One firm
does business of haIf million of dollars
year in this country and there are numerous
other importers. so that the effect of the high
duty may readily be SEEN" -,tt ~ -..

Western Pennsylvania Deaf and Dumb
VERY GOOD WORK.

Although special schedules were prepared
for veterans and sailors of the late war, to-
geIher with the widows of deceased soldiers
and sailors and the number of deformed or
crippled persons the number of those in Pitts
burg and Allegheny cannot be ascertained
until the official count is made in Washington,
as MIR. Oliver Kept account of them. In
speaking of the manner in which tine work
was done in the Ninth district, Mr.. Oliver
said:
"On the whole, the work was quite satisfac-
tory. l only found four districts that 1 thought
had been carelessly enumerated based on my
own knowledge of the particular districts and
my opinion as to what they should have shown
up. l ordered the work to be done over and
three of the four districts gave large increases,
while the fourth showed was wrong. l am
forced to admit that the greatest trouble came
from the better class of people, who should
have had the welfare of the city sufficiently at
heart to take an interest in the matter. Many
went away from home. leaving no instructions
whatever for the enumerators: many others
exhibited no interest whatever in the matter.
The most satisfactory results come from the
work among the lower classes. But there is no
need for complaint now; the work is done. and
believe as thoroughly as 1t would be possible
to do in city like Pittsburg."
Most of the Pittsburg enumerators have been
paid for their work, but Mr.. Oliver has not yet
received his draft. 1t seems that he, like all
the others, is compelled to wait his turn.

James McAuliffe. of No. 304 Ross street, was
arrested last night and lodged in Central sta
tion by order of Inspector McAleese for re-
fusing to support his alleged IS-months-old
child. Annie Killen. mother of the child, was
also arrested, but her condition was so pit1a-
Bile that the kind-hearted Inspector released
her.
About O'Clock yesterday afternoon Annie
accosted Harry Barker, an u-year-old boy. at
the corner of Fourth avenue and Ross street,
and offered him cents if he would take the
baby to Mr.. McAuliffe's house. The boy
agreed and when he got to the house the fam.
llv refused to take in the child. The boy re-
turned to the place with the baby where he
left the woman, but the latter had disappeared
He then took the child to Central station,
where Matron Brennan took charge of it. The
boy described the woman as best he could and
an hour later the Inspector had her located
and sent Officer Devlin to arrest her. At the
station she said the father of the child would
not support it. and as she was about to be ill
she became desperate and tried to make his
family keep IL.

The Allegheny Water Committee met
last night and considered the most impor-
tant matter that has yet, or ever will likely,
come up for consideration before that body.
Bids were opened for the new water works,
but there were so many of them that the
committee did not feel disposed to make
any definite recommendations and ap-
pointed a subcommittee of five to tabulate
each bid.
Much interest was evinced in the pro-.
ceeding by the spectators, who filled the
room and heard with eagerness each bid as
1t was read by the clerk. The
ordinance provided for a new pump

The list of shots of a similar character

A CLEVER EXHIBITION.
Last night Schaefer and Ives gave an ex-
hibition at Harry Davis Brunswick
Billiard Hall. A number of invitations
had been seat out, and from the size of the
crowd. it would seem that in nearly every
instance they had been responded TO.
Every seat was taken long before
the players arrived, and when the
first contest began gentlemen were
crowding over each Others shoulders seven or
eight deep all around The big room. 1t was one
of the largest companies that ever witnessed
an exhibition in tins city and showed in itself
that billiards in Pittsburg have assumed a de-
cided upward tendency within few months.
The first game was 400 points straight rail.
Schaefer led off with a run of l6 Ives followed

picked up his cue and nurSed the balls twice

The next game was 800 points. fourteen inch

highest runs were 81 and %. His total was l29
Then followed the exhibition shots, which were
loudly applauded.
WILLING TO PLAY ANYONE.
After the entertainment was over Schaefer
remarked to the writer: Il neglected to say
TO you that favor big halk line handicap

winter. You know Slosson and are matched
play this month, but the present talk about
the tournament in the metropolis may make a
change so far as our match is concerned L
want to make it open to the world, and after it
is over l will play SlOSson for the champion
ship. If the tournament falls through / will
make him play me anyway"
At this iunCture Ives spoke up and said: ''If
we could get another man in beside Schaefer,
Slos>on and my self would be willing to sacrl-
flee my title to champion, with the first two
barred and take chance in, the money to be
divided 40 50, 20 and 10 per cent. But there is

Mr. OLIVER PLEASED WITH THE WORK

During the collection OF the census in this
district in June last, which work was done
under the supervision of Mr.. George T.
Oliver, there was considerable interest mani
tested in the comparative growth of each
ward. The Official count made upon the
returns since they have been received at
Washington gives Allegheny county total
population OF 551. 1856; of this number Pitts
burg has 23S, 473; Allegheny, 1o4, ,967; Brad
dock, 1888, and McKeesport, 20,711.
A DISPATCH reporter called upon Mr..
Oliver yesterday afternoon, and, with his
aid, is able to give for the first time the pop
ulation of the two cities by wards, showing
how each has increased or decreased as the
case NAV be. Below is the table containing
these valuable statistics:
