MEMORIAL ORGAN.
Magnificent Present to the First Congre-
gatiOnal Church.

Magnificent Present to the First Congre-
gatfonal Church.
Yesterday afternoon a chosen few were
allowed to hear the new organ, which has
been presented to the First Congregational
Church by Mrs. Harriet C. Alexander, in
memory of her parents, Charles and Mary A.
Croker.
The organ, though not the largest in the
United States, has every quality of tone,
and mechanism for producing it, that any
organ has. The case is of solid black wal
nut of bold and yet delicate design, harmon
izing perfectly with the architecture of the
church.
The action is Of the most modern construc-
ton. 1t is perfection itself. Chief among
lis features may be mentioned the Grand
CreScendo," which is automatic, being con-
trolled by balanced pedal and indicated on
a dial.
The great organ" contains ten stops and
1913 pipes. the swell organ" fifteen stops
with 1898 pipes, the choir and solo organ
have eight stops and 4SS pipes, the pedal
organ has seven stops and 210 pipes, max
ing in all forty stops and 25S9 pipes.
Clarence Eddy, the distinguished virtuoso
of Chicago, will play to-day at ITS opening SER

citals next Thursday and Friday evenings

RECIPROCITY.

If the Washington dispatches published
in the CALL are true Mr. Blaine has
again established himself as the real leader
of the Republican party. While there is not
so much difference between Mr.. Blaine's idea
of reciprocity and the House Tariff Bill as has
been represented, there is still enough of a
departure from the details of the'bill TO make
the concessions of Reed and Mckinley a
triumph for Blaine. The agreement as re-
ported includes such action in the Conference
Committee which will be appointed to recon-
Gle differences between the House bill and
the bill the Senate will present as will secure
the acceptance of the conference report by
the two Houses. The Tariff Bill will soon
become law under the reported arrange

A BOY BURNED TO DEATH.
Terrible Fate of enid at an Atlantis
City Hotel.

Terrible Fate of enid at an Atlantic
City Hotel.
The guests at the State Capital Hotel had
a thrilling experience just about bedtime on
the night of August 22d. says an Atlantic
City special to the Times Of Philadelphia.
\ little S-yeur-old boy named John German,
the son Of Stephen German of 1881 Ian
caster avenue, and his 2-year-old sister We're
being put to bed by their mother. She left
the room temporarily but had only gone
few steps " hen the shrieks of her boy brought
her hurriedly back to the room. She
pushed the door open and was hOrrted to
see him enveloped in flames. His cries
brought many of the guests to the room,
and one of them succeeded in exiting gushing
the flames by throwing coat over the I'M
fortunate boy.
His mother was terror-stricken at the
sight, but when the flames were put out re-
covered her composuTe sufficiently to enable
DR.. Armstrong to make an examination of
the poor boys badly charred body. Deep
burrows were burned into the flesh at sew
era points, and on the right side the fire had
eaten its way almost into the lung The
boys suffering was of the most excruciating
kind, and no antidote, however powerful,
had any effect in amelIorating it, and after
night of terrible agony death came as a wei
come relief to him. The cause OF the sad
affair was a lighted candle, which fell
against the boys clothes while he was unity
ing his shoes.

KILLED HIS SON.

Joseph Klitzman Hurls Pair OF Shears
With Terrible Results.
Martin-street tailor threw pair of
heavy shears at disobedient son, and as a
result he is prisoner at the Sixth Precinct
Police Station, and the boy is dead. He in
tended simply to emphasize his commands,
but the missile was hurled with deadly effect,
and moments action caused by hasty tenn
per may be regretted for lifetime. The
unfortunate affair occurred at Joseph Kilt
mans tailor-Shop, on Martin street. The
building is his residence also, but d large
room i'll the rear has been set apart as a
Sewing-room. a Leader reporter learned
from Klitzman that the trouble arose at $50
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. He told the
boy TO do some work, but the latter insisted
that he should be permitted to play. The
probability is that he desired to practice
with violin of which he was very fond.
KltZman was in bad humor and the boys
conduct threw him into rage. He reached
over 10 the table and picking up pair OF
heavy shears by the points threw them at his
son. The shears skipped along over the
top OF the table, and the boy jumped to get
out of the way, but he was too late and the
sharp point penetrated his left side. The
shears were foot in length and weighed
nearly pound. Even then it was not
thought that the boy was badly hurt, and
no attention was paid to him when he
sought solitude IN another part Oh the
house. About an hour later, Kltzman's
relatives say, one of the working girls
found Frank sitting on a bench covered
with blood. She gave the alarm and DR..
Cook was summoned. He found that an
artery had been severed and that the
shears had penetrated the left lung. The
boy had lost great quantity Of blood, and
there was small hope OF saving his life.
Later, Dr. BuntS was called. 1t is said that
when the physician had succeeded in
staunchng the external flow of blood
there were indications OF internal hemorr-
hage.
About 7 clock last evening the boy sud-
denly frightened up, his pulse became reg
ular anu there was q glmmer of hope.
He was given only brief respite, however.
and soon he began to sink rapidly. His
death occurred about 40 o'clock, and was
probably due to the great loss Of blood.
When klitzman found that his son was
badly injured his anger quickly gave way
to remorse ana he was almost beside him

WHERE Is M'ELHINNY2
The Attorneys Friends Searching fol-
His whereabouts.

The Attorneys Friends Searching for
His Whereabouts.
The friends of Michael A. McElhinny, the
attorney and collector. formerly doing bust
ness at the corner of Clay and Kearny streets,
are induStriousIy searching the city for him,
but thus far their efforts have been without
avail. A large number of persons who have
left bi is in his hands for collection are also
looking for him. but they, too. have not been
able to ascertain his whereabouts.
lie has suddenly and mysteri0uSly diSap-
peared, and no one has been found who
knows anything of his movements. His
office has been deserted for several days,
and those who have known him best are at
loss TO account for his mysterious move
mentS.
His sister, who resides at 2111 Larkin
street, and with whom McElhinny was sup
posed TO live, states that he left his home
some time ago and has not since returned.
She had understood that he was at present In
Los Angeles, but of this she was not sure,
and, in iacl knew nothing positively about
him.
Inquiry was also made among the various
offices in the building where ne made his
headquarters, but nothing definite could be
ELECTED. His office mad been deserted for
some Time, so they said, and scores of peo-
pie called daily to make inquiries. That he
had disappeared from his old haunts was
all they knew, and beyond that they had as
certaiued nothing definite.

THE AMERICAN MARKETS.

A London correspondent represents Chaun-
cey Depew as saying: 81 can hardly tell you
of the terror that prevails in France and Ger
many about the passage of the Mckinley
bill. This terror has broken through the
official crust of the upper classes, and soaked
well into the people of the manufacturing dis
tricts." The Mckinley bill proposes rate of
tariff duties that will enable American manu-
facturers TO do much of the work now done
in Europe. Such is the object OF the bill,
and the terror which Mr.. Depew describes in
dicateS belief on the part of foreign manu.
facturers that it will accomplish its object.
While holding to considerable extent mar
kets so valuable to them, France and Ger
many began some years ago war on Amer
lean products. They wanted to get their fine
goods into the American market, but were
unwilling to take American coarse products
in return. Both France and Germany de-
scended TO the dodge of officially declaring
that the importation of American pork was
prohibited on account of d seaSe. Ii they
had put prohibitiye duty on pork Amerl-
cans would have had nothing to say. We
could have replied to that argument by sub
jecting certain articles which form the bulk
of French and German expectations to duties
that W ould have kept them out of our mar
ket. But France and Germany want our
market and their own too. The passage of
the Mckinley bill will bring them to their
senses. If Congress had passed such a bill as
is now before it when Minister Sargent rep
resented to the American Government the
true nature of the German interdict of Amer
lean pork it would have impressed European
statesmen with some respect. We have now
at the head of the Government more
thorough American than we had when Sar-
gent was permitted to resign because Bis
marck made his official residence in Berlin
unpleasant. We have also Congress which
does not frame measures with an especial
view to our industrial competitors across the
Atlantic. Under these changed conditions it
is pretty certain that tariff bill will not be
thrown aside because European nations do
not like some of its provisions.

LABOR DAY PARADE.

There can be no doubt of the fact that the
condition of men who work with their
hands is improving. Such parade as was
seen in this city yesterday would have been
impossible fifty years ago. 1t was not the
physical proportions of the men in line that
attracted attention, but the broad foreheads
and generally intelligent faces. They are
men vino think and read and have opinions
ON all current topics. Along in the early
fifties it was said of the men in the mines
that every other man could jump out OF the
hole he might be working in and make
