ORGANIZED

The assassination OF Chief of Police
Hennessey in New Orleans has developed
the existence Of a secret society whose
main object is the murder of those who
thwart its plans or oppose Its schemes. In
its component parts it seems to be similar
20 the ''Mollie Maguiros." which terror
ired the anthracite coal region of Penn
s~ylvania, the Klu Klux of the South,
the White Caps OF Indiana and the Clan
na-Gael Of Chicago.
The mayor of New Orleans has formed
the commendable resolution Of roofing
out the society and in this work he will
have the assistance Of the leading law
abIdiuE citizens. At the very outset of
his crusade be receives an anonymous
communication threatening his life aud
there is no doubt that blood will be shed
before the organization is e~xtirpated.
Now that tho work is commenced it
sholld be carried out to the bitter end.
Whenever any society or organization sets
itself above the law or presumes to be a
law to itself, it is then time for the consti-
tuted authorities to act with such vigor
that the secret murderous organizations
are effectually and permanently retired
from business.

TIE COL FAMINE-

On the interesting subject of the
scarcity of coal, the Rock Springs hide
pendent SAYS; The people from Omaha
to Salt Lake are making n great kick
against the Union Pacific for the coal
famine that prevails at nearly every place
between these two points. But they do
not realize what an extraordinary effort
the road Is making to keep up the coal
supply. The amount of freight the road
has been handling this month is nnprece-
dented in the history of the ruad and the
motive power has been made
quate to handle it. An examination
Of the ward here shows an unusual
condition. There was yesterdAy r
total of 277 can Of time freight 10
the yards comprising lumber, wheat,
ore. liquor and general merchandise. 1t
is for points both east and west and some
of it has been a month on the road. The
way it comes to be left here is that a train
OF time freight is side-tracked and a train
of coal is take1 in its place. It is the
same at Green River and other stations;
the train is dropped of and the engine
runs on TO Rock Springs and picks up a
load Of coal Such a large number of
trains being laid out makes a dearth Of
cars for coal trade which aggravates the
trouble and enables the mines to run only
about half time, The cold weather has
also begun earlier than usual this seAaon
and caught the road uuprepared for the
big demand.
Besides the time freight there is also in
the yard l5s west bound and 95 east
bound loads The large amount Of freight
in the yards has necessitated the employ
ment of four watqhmen to look after it by
Agent Levesque who knows by ex-
rerienco the risk of having too much
freight within reach of thieving hands.
What is needed the most is motive
power and this is being supplied at tie
rate Of two or three new engines per day.
The shops are also returning to the road
the many disabled engines and it is cx-
pected that everything will get to running
smoothly before many days.

Merely a low price is not an evidence 81
eheapness in merchandise. and quotations
Of clothing prices are Of all things most
deceptive. We do not keep what is called
cheap clothing. We always ave some
garments Tor men and boys Mt low prices;
but we get them hv marking down the
broken lots and slow selling lots of good
quality. These bargain garments adver-
tise themselves. If you want a serviceable
Overcoat, Suit or odd Coat, Vest or pair
of Trousers for very little money, we can
usually supply much better value than
the price asked would buy in the regular
way. Most people, however, want the
best clothes they can afford to wear. aud
our rightly-made garments arc intended
to %supplant the custom work. Therefore
you cannot judge OF the prices without
seeing the clothes.

THE official count of the vote in Idaho
just completed shows that ls,0Os votes
were cast, or two less bar were cast in
Wyoming at the delegate election two
years ago. This is / 1857 more votes than
we're cast in Wyoming this year, notwith
standing the Acknowledgement Of the
Mormons in Idaho. The showing is all
the more remarkable when it Is consid-
cred that Boise City, the capital OF the
ttate, is given a population of less than
5000 by the late census while the same
authority credits at least half a dozen
towns in Wyoming with an equal popula-
ton, and one town, Cheyenne, with about
four times that number.

A TOURIST IN TROUBLE.
George Whitton Arrested just as He Was
Leaving for Ireland.

George Whitton Arrested just as He Was
Leaving for Ireland.
George Whitton, an freshman who has lately
resided near Twenty-eighth street, had made
preparations to take his wife and family back
to Belfast. Ireland, his native home, and the
900 train last night on the b. & o. had been
selected to carry them to New York. Whitton,
his family and large number of friends got to
the depot about O'Clock. AS it came near the
time for the train to start, the Whitton family
were getting out to board the train, when a
dispute occurred between Whitton and the
gateman which wound up by his being placed
patrol wagon and Whltton was loaded upon 1t
amid many loud protestations from his family
and friends, and sent to the Central station.
The time for the starting of the train drew
near Whitton's family got aboard and his
friends started down to Central station to put
up a forfeit and secure his release There was
but space of seven minutes from the time
they reached the station until the train was to
leave, but the wagon had not yet arrived with
the prisoner. Unfortunately for Whitton the
wagon had two calls to answer, one being
speakeasy on Old avenue, which occupied con-
siderable time. and by the time Central station
was reached the train had started out for New
York with Whltton's family on board. He was
at Central station and furious over his arrest
as well as somewhat in1amed with liquor. His
friends were furious, too, and they threatened
10 sue the railroad company. They made no
offer to put up forfeit for Wilton, and he
stayed in Central over night. Wilton calcu-
lated to start on a vessel from New York to-
morrow morning. He is resting comfortably
in the knowledge that his wife can pay her own
way over. and he can follow on the next toat.

THE UNIoNTowN UNKNOWN.

He Turns Out to be Mr.. Slattery, Once Known
as Boston Man.
Murder will always out and even slick sprint
ers cannot prevent it. OF course. the term
unknown" is used in a modified and illustra-
tive sense because of the old adage. There has
been an unknown sprinter in Uniontown for
some time, and he has either by his own orders
or those of others been introduced to the citi-
zens of Western Pennsylvania as "Stibbo,"
Boyd" Grant" and other aliases. The un-
known, according to the most authoritative
source, turns out to be Mr.. Slattery. of South
Boston. The public knows Slattery as a
sprinter. He is not a champion nor is he an
inferior man. Slattery is good runner, and
as sprinter has no apparent well-meaning OBJ
ject to be in Uniontown looking for races with
Cherry" and other persons who use aliases.
Unioutown is one of the best of sporting towns
in Western Pennsylvania; everybody there
seems to delight in an honest contest, and they
are always ready to furnish the price for such
events. The only thing that will ruin Union,
towns good name is to in any way be connected
with Fingers"
If Mr.. Slattery is yet in Uniontown, or any,
where else for that matter. in request for an
honest race most assuredly he will always get
one if he declares himself in an honest open
and reasonable way. Slattery is good runner,
and IL he can go TO Washington, d. C., and
beat Owens record of Saturday last he will es-
tablish his name as first-claSs Sprinter. In
formation has come to this paper that the
"UnIontown unknown has been showing the
good-hearted citizens there 100 yards in 81
seconds" Mr.. Slattery cannot do that.

RETURNING FROM THE WEST.
President Harrison Made Thirteen Speeche,
on the 13tI

President Harrison Made Thirteen Speeches
on the 18th.
President Harrison and his party arrived in
this city last evening on the return home from
the Western trip. His private car was attached
to the Eastern express, and his stay at the
depot was very short. Senator Quay was in
one of the forward cars. but he didn't know
that the President occupied the rear coach.
Secretary Tracy, 'Lige Haltord and several
newspaper men made up the balance of the
party.
When asked about politics, or the possibility
of holding an extra session OF Congress, Mr..
Harrison remarked that This fall weather was
very beautiful in spite of the rain. He added
that he was well pleased with his trip, and he
was now ready to go to work.
The President has been on the road eight
days, during which time he travelled 5000
miles and made 40 addresses, and yesterday
broke all records by speaking to crowds Is
times. During his campaign of three months
he only delivered twice as many. Few people
knew that the President was to pass through
the city, and the crowd at the depot to see
him was very small.
Telegraph dispatches from various towns sin
Ohio and Indiana tell of enthusiastic re-
cephons to the Presidential party while en-
route to this city. At Crestline, O., a message
was received concerning Justice Miller's con-
dition, which vsibly affected the whole party.
One of the longer stops was made at Mansfield,
Senator Sherman's home. The President took
every opportunity to present Secretary Tracy
to the cheering thousands who bore his honors
meekly. The party is expected to reach Wash
ington early this morning.

TO VOTE OR NOT TO VOTE.
That's the Question Bothering the Reform

That's the Question Bothering the Reformed
Presbyterian Presbytery.
This afternoon at 1:30 o'clock the Presbytery
of the Reformed Presbyterian (Covenanter)
Church will open in Williamsburg. Although
the avowed purpose of the gathering is without
any particular significance, being mainly for
routine BUSINESS, it is known that weighty mat
ters will come up to be discussed earnestly,
and perhaps bitterly. before the adjournment.
The two factions that have for so long existed
in the Reformed Presbyterian denomination
will he ptted against each other in the arena
of open debate, and the younger members of
the Presbvtery who oppose some of the doc
trines of the church will be forced to defend
their position or beat an inglorious retreat
The question that is exciting much in
terest in the forthcoming meeting of Presby-
tery is whether members of the Reformed
Church should be allowed to vote in civil
elections in face of the fact that the name of
God is not mentioned in the Constitution of
the United States The privilege of the ballot
has always been forbidden by the rules of the
church, in view of the secular character the
Constitution, and the conservative meI Jers of
the church regard with iTdignation the desire
of the more liberal element TO vote in spite of
the church.
To-day ten students will discourse to the as
eligibility for ordination may be formed by
Presbytery. Tomorrow morning, at 1880. when
PIesbytery convenes again. it is expected that
the question of revision of the rules will be
brought up.
There will be some 60 ministers present from
various places under the;control of this Presby-
terry, beside large number of laymen.

EXPOSITION PEOPLE LEAVE,
And Call at Kleber Bros

After viewing the splendid sights at the
Exposition most of the visitors (who mean
business) call at H. Kleber & Bros, 506
Wood street, and select one of their superior
pianos and organs. They know in their
hearts that to make fine show is one thing
and to give people the very finest instru-
ments at the price of the common second
class goods is quite another thing. The
Messrs. Kleber & Bro. enjoy the fullest
confidence of the public, and whether they
exhibit or not, whether they hold forth on
the principal business street of P ttsburg,
Wood street, or in Diamond or Virgin
alley, the public will seek them out and
congratulate themselves that they have
found out the place which is utterly safe and
reliable, and above the sharp tricks of new
houses which have come in at the eleventh
hour and which have to rely upon the
credulitv OF the public to get rid OF their
goods-using clubs and other knock-down
arguments to bulldoze their callers into
buying their inferior wares-articles which
the Kleber Bros. had long since rejected US
unworthy of being associated with their
honorable record and name. Such pianos
as Stelnway's, Conover's, Opera, Gabler,
Emerson, and organs such as the great
Vocalions, Earhuff dust-proof and Burdett.
cannot be duplicated in this country.

FATE OF THE INFANTS.

What the Revision Committee Will Do To-
Day Before Their Adjournment of This
Meeting Some Radical Changes APP
pearing i'm the Confession of Faiths.
The revision OF Chapter Iii on foreordins-
ton was finally finished by the Presbyterian
General Assembly Committee yesterday and
though it is not ready for public inspection,
Chairman Roberts vouchsafed the intorma-
tion that there were some very radical
changes made. The report of the SUBJ
committee on Chapter " was received and
adopted. The changes in this chapter were
also quite numerous. The ninth chapter was
then taken up, but its final consideration was
postponed until the Washington meeting is
opened.
Judge Strong received telegram calling
him to Washington on account of the illness of
Justice Miller, q very firm friend of Judge
Strong.
The meeting will close to-day with the ad-
journment at $50. That matter was fully de-
cided upon at the meeting yesterday afternoon.
To-day the committee will take up the tenth
chapter referring to the final disposition OF in
fants and idiots and there is little doubt, but
that they will be consigned to a much better
fare than has heretofore been their lot One of
the ministers said yesterday, that some very
radical changes would be made in this chapter
and it will hereafter be much less severe on
those who happen to die young or be born
idiots

BOOMING FOR PATTIsON.
Southside Workingmen Claimed to be Solid
For the Ex-Governor.

Southside Workingmen Claimed to be Solid
For the Ex-Governor.
Ex-Master Workman John Coffey, of District
l49. Green Glass League. and George Metzgar,
a well known green-glass worker of the South
side, made an extended tour of that portion of
the city yesterday in the interest of ex-Gover-
nor Pattson, and arranged for meeting which
will be held at Odd Fellows Hall, corner of
Eighteenth an6 Sarah streets, tomorrow plight
Mr. Coffey said that the Pattison sentiment in
this city surpassed his most sanguine expecta-
tions and in this statement he was borne out
by Mr. Metzgar.
The estimates OF Pattson's strength on the
Southside are away out of sight. A Repub-
lican of that portion of the city who has been
an ardent party man for years, and who has
been conspicuous in politics for some time
SAID yesterday: ~ believe know as many
workingmen on the Southside as any man over
there and can tell you right now that they
are out for Pattison IN droyes. The foreman
of one glasshouse. where about 100 voters are
engaged. told me yesterday that he was salts.
fed nearly every man would vote for the ex-
Governor. At another shop there are rs voters
OF this number 49 are Republicans in principle
The foreman told me he had assurances that
every man would vote for Pattison.
I'm ordinary elections the Southside is good
for l. 200 Republican majority. If 1t does not
give Pattison from 1000 to 2.50O majority will
buy you 4 new hat. Many people put the ma
jority at 1000 or 5000, but am making a care
full estimate based on what have learned after
thorough survey of the field. 1 have lived
over there for 40 years. and have wide ac-
quaintance with the workingmen, and 1 tell
you never saw such a revolt from the regular
nominee in all these years."
The gentleman quoted above declined to
have his name used, but he is thoroughly re-
liable, as hundreds and hundreds of men in
both cities will testify.

big State, and if man could not be gotten in
Pittsburg, surely one could be gotten without
going out of the State.
Mr.. o'Donnell asked for Chief Bigelow's
views Mr.. Bigelow said he had gone after
Colonel Culyer. the latter had not come after
him. Colonel Culyer had all the work he could
do He had been the original man in Central
Park. New York. and in Prospect Park,
BROOKLYN. He was now laying out park for
Patterson, n. T., for Princeton and several
other places. The Chief had gotten him to
come here, and, after looking over the ground,
he had said that Pittsburg was millions ahead
in what it now holds. Brooklyn spent &c. 0O0, 600
in getting Prospect Park in the shape Schenly
Park now is. Central Park cost $40, 900 600 for
in his line in America. He would be here not
over a year. and his services would cost 81, 900
or 5000. The Chief did not think this eX-
travagant.
MUST FIX UP THE PARK.
Mr. Bigham spoke in favor of the resolution.
He was opposed to park expenditure. but he
realized that the park should be correctly laid
OUT and a good man is needed. As for adver-
tising. that was foolish. Professional men
worth employing did not answer advertise
ments. The amendment of Mr.. Blgham was
adopted. Mr.. Finn did not press his amend
ment relative to the person employed being
resident of Plttshurg, and the resolution Went
over for printing.
In Select Council the Schenley Park en-
trance ordinance was then taken up and on
motion of Mr.. Keating was amended SO that
instead of the city agreeing to pay Tor the od ~
acres in three annual installments of $4,000
each. the city shall pay the whole sum OF
$4,000 in the first payment in May OF next year
Mr.. keating explained that the City Controller
had objected to the original ordinance. be-
cause it contracted to increase the city debt,
and this Councils had no authority TO DO. Ihe
amendment was simply intended to conform to
the law. Mr.. keating's motion was adopted
without opposition and the ordinance went over
for reprinting.
The following ordinances were passed finally:
In Select Couucil-Vaca;ing Castleman street,
from Barton TO BIdwell streets: establishing the
grade OF Woolslayer alley, from Thirty-seventh
to Thirty-ninth streets. and from Main street to
Friendship avenue: establishing the grade of

ducing the width of Reed street, from Soho street
TO Center avenue.

BUYING UP EVERYTHING.

The Pittsburg and Western Road is Elbow
ing Its Way for More Room.
Some months ago THE DISPATCH noted the
large purchases of property on the Allegheny
river front by the Pittsburg and Western road
for the purpose of constructing yards and side
tracks, made necessary by increased business,
and the work of acquiring real estate is still
going on. The company has bought every
dwelling and property between the two bridges.
Herr's Island and the Ewalt street bridge at
Benefits station. on the north bank of the
river. The houses have all been torn down, the
low lands have been filled up and every space is
occupied with new side tracks.
Even the old Office building of the Millvale
Iron Works had to be moved some distance
The many sidings are used for shifting freight
to and from the connecting lInes-the Balti-
more and Ohio over the junction, the West
Penn and the Allegheny Valley road, which is
now reached by the river division of the juno
tion railway. There are from -12 to Is locomo-
tives In the new yard all the time.
