FAITH In fHE BRIDGE.

Colonel Andrews Talks About the Proposed
New York Terminal Structure - He
Makes a Point In Favor of Railroads
Against Canals.
Colonel James P. Andrews went to
Buffalo last evening. The Colonel has
great faith in the new bridge to
be built across the Hudson for the
New York Terminal road. He says
the girders will be four feet in diameter,
and each one of the four cables will be made
up of 90, 900 strands of wire. The bridge
will be wide enough to accommodate ten
tracks, and the depot to be built, he says,
when completed, will be the finest in the
world. The structure will cost from $40, 900,
900 to $50, ,000, 900, and is private capital.
As soon as Congress grants the company a
charter the work will be commenced.
: Turning to the subject of the proposed
Erie canal, Colonel Andrews said: "If that
canal scheme is feasible why don't the men
who will be directly benefited put up the
money to build it. Why tax the farmer in
Lancaster county for something in which he
is not interested" If such precedent were
adopted the people in any part of the State
could demand similar privileges, and the
public funds would be subverted.
"The minimum of carrying freight by
water, especially in canals, cannot be re-
duced. To begin with, don't think there
is sufficient water shed to supply this ca
nal. The boats are moving up hill all the
time. The canals are so narrow that the
water piles up ahead Of the vessels, and it
requires extra power to overcome the iner-
tia. This is not true in rivers where the
water can easily run along the sides. The
cost of transp0rtation hv ra11roads Ia oop.

FISH IN THE BALLGROUyDs.

They Were Probably Awaiting the Return
Of the Players CIub-About 500 Ger
man Carp Caught Without Hook or
Limestone Big Yarns Go With Them.
In the past two weeks 800, and probably
more, German carp have been caught in the
old Exposition grounds in Allegheny. The
low land back Of the Brotherhood ball park
was flooded during the last nigh rise in the
Allegheny, the water coming in through
large open sewer. or rather sluice way, BULL
to carry off the water from the grounds dur
ing the old racing days. The sewer ID
some three or four feet above the level of the
ground, and after the high water had sub
sided it left an immense pond that is only
now disappearing by seeping down through
the ground. Some boys floating about it
on improvised board RATS on last Decora-
ton Day stirred up number of fish, and
since that time the place has been regular
fishing ground for all the men and boys in
the neighborhood.
The peculiar part of the sport, however,
is that hook and line is not necessary.
The fishers roll up their trousers and wade
fish over the head and when he keels over
they pick him out. Some Of the boys have
made pocketful Of money catching and
selling them, while others are satisfied with
enough to stock the home larder. The fish
weigh from two to four pounds, but some
aro even larger.
George McNimery, thes Of one of Allie
gheny's police officers, with companion
named Edward Marcellus, caught the larg-
est one, weighing eight pounds. Two
brothers, Joe and Dick Richards, caught
two tubs full yesterday morning, and others
have been equally successful. Yesterday
two little boys waded into smaller pond,
and in half an hour caught five. The pond
was not more than five feet across and about
eight inches deep. Carp is not the only f sh
they catch, hoGever, as large number of
catfish and spoonfsh have been found. One
little fellow about 9 years of age, named
Eddie Knapp, caught goldfish.
The fishermen think the animals came
from q carp pond near Johnstown that the
food of q year ago washed out. Others
think they came from the private carp pond
in the East End beyond Silver Lake that
broke two weeks ago, and ran out by the
way of Negley's run.

The Republican voters Of Allegheny and
the Twenty-third Congressional district will
have no lack of excellent candid ates from
whom to select in nominating their man to
succeed Colonel Thomas M. Bsyne In the
National House of Representatives.
Ia addition to Colonel William A. Stone,
who has already declared his intention to
stand at the primaries, and George Shiras,
who will make his decision to-day, the fol-
lowing are mentioned as possible candidates:
United States District Attorney Walter
Lyon, who lives at Evergreen; John s.
Robb, ESQ.,, whose home is in Ellsworth;
ex-District Attorney W. David Porter, Of
the Fourth ward of Allegheny; City At
tornev George Elphinstone, of the Second
ward OF Allegheny, and Councilman Charles
w. Dahlinger, of the Fifth ward of ALLIE
gheny.
Mr.. Elphinstone announced his candi.
dacy to few friends yesterday. He is a
brilliant young attorney, living on Resaca
street. He has been practicing law for
about eight years. He made his first good
hit in the Eddie Thaw poisoning case five
years ago. He defended Mrs. Bunnell,
who was charged with the crime,
and secured her acquittal. His argu-
ment to the jury in her be.
half attracted q great deal of attention
and praise. He is now serving his third
term as City Attorney Of Allegheny, and
has announced that he would not again be
a candidate for that Office. His friends
have understood for some time that he ex-
pected to be a candidate for Congress in
1892. He is one of the leading spirits in the
Order of Elks. As public speaker he has
few equals in this part of the State.
Yesterday a number of the friends of
Charles W. Dahlinger called upon him and
asked him to be candidate. He will give
them an answer in day or two. Mr..
Dahlinger is only 81 years old and is the son
of a carpenter. By hard work and economy
he has already laid the foundation for COM
Portable fortune. He was born in the
Third ward of Allegheny, and has
lived 27 years in the Fifth. He was
for several years cashier of the Working
mems Savings Bank, on East Ohio street.
Four years ago he was admitted to the bar
and has already secured good civil prac-
tice. He is good talker, and during the
Harrison campaign he made speech on the
tariff, before meeting in the Bijou Theater,
for which he was highly complimented by
Colonel Bayne. He is unmarried.
He is now serving his second term as q
member of the Common Council for the
Fifth ward, and is Chairman of the Car.
negie Library Joint Committee. He is the
only candidate of German parentage.

Seating Capacity Provided to Accommo.
date 5000 People.
The programme for West Penn Hospital
entertainments next Saturday have been
completed, and seats for both the military
exhibition and Marine Band concert will be
placed on sale at S. Hamilton's this morn
ing at 9 o'clock. Military orders have been
issued by Colonel P. D. Parchment, Of the
Fourteenth, and Colonel N. M. Smith, of
the Eighteenth Regiment, requiring the
companies to assemble in light marching
order on Saturday at 1:30 P. NJ. The field
and staff will report mounted. Battery B
will also be on hand to participate in the
ceremonies. From the indications the two
regiments will make strong turnout, and
an interesting time is assured. General
John A. Wiley will be on hand to command
the brigade.
The seating capacity at the old Exposi-
tion grounds has been arranged so as to ac-
commodate 5000 people, but it is thought
every seat will be occupied, as the demand
has already been very great. Tickets will
be sold for the military display at 30 cents,
and 25 cents extra for reserved opera chairs.
The admission to the concert in the evening
will be 81, and so cents extra for reserved
seats. Only a limited number of reserved
seats will be sold, and no seats will be re-
served after 8 o'clock on the evening of the
concert.
An interesting programme has been pre-
pared for the Marine Band. Among the
selections will be one entitled "Caprice, or
the Contest" 1t is band test, which ends
in row.

TERMS OF THE SETTLEMENT.
Timers Satisfied With the Way In Which
the Strike Ended.


Thejourneymen timers met yesterday and
ratified the action Of the Conference Commit
tee, which settled the strike on Saturday. It
had been agreed to by the conference COM
mittees that the terms of the settlement
should not be made public until after the
meeting Of the master timers next Friday
evening. but the news was too good for the
men to keep to themselves.
As stated in THE DISPATCH yesterday,
concessions were made on both sides. The
master timers conceded the demands Of the
men that the minimum wages should be
g 30, and agreed that all workmen who had
their wages increased previous to May l, or
had the offer of raise since the strike,
should be paid the increase from to-day. It
was further agreed that where a competent
workman changes from one shop
to another, he shall not receive
less in the second than he
did in the one he has left. This, the men
claim, is a great concession on the part of
the masters. They say it has been the Gus
tom for men who haze been discharged or re-
signed in one shop to be compelled to start
in for much lower wages elsewhere than
were paid him before.
The strike has lasted since May !. Dur
ing that time Local Union No. IL paid out
81, 500 in strike benefits. There were about
250 men out, but not more than % of the
men were in need of money.

A REMINDER FROM EVANS.

He Says the Boycott IL stiIl On the Pitts
burg Traction Company.
'The delegates to the Amalgamated Asso-
citation Of Iron and Steel Workers Conven-
tion evidently don't know that boycott
has been placed on the Fifth avenue cable
cars" said Master Workman Joseph l..
Evans. of D. A. No. g., Knights of Labor,
yesterday.
SIT has been reported to me that the dele
gates are riding on the cars to and from the
convention. They should not forget how
the company treated organized labor, and
discharged its best men because they be-
longed to labor union. The boycott is not
being pushed until the Duquesne company
starts its cars. As soon as we can offer the
public another line to patronize, and assist
us in securing recognition. we will advise
them to leave the cable company alone. 1t
is gratifying to know, however, that the ma
jority of union men living out Fifth avenue
walk to and from their homes. and will con-
tinue to do so, rather than patronize COM
pany fighting their interests"

HOW THEY LOOK AT IT.
Messrs. Stone and shiras Content With
Either of the Methods.

HIessrs. Stone and Shiras Content With
Either of the Methods.
A call was paid to Colonel Stone last
night at his residence in order to solicit his
opinion on the resolution to abolish the
delegate system of voting at primaries.
"It is immaterial, 30 far as I am oon-
cerned, whether the Crawford county system
is adopted or not" he said. ''I don't think
it is necessary to bring that method before
the people at the present time, and am
not particularly infatuated with it. It does
not present any stronger safeguard against
Objectionable features in politics than the
present system of voting by delegates. All
desire is time enough in which to take
proper care of my canvass and win the fight
fairly"
George Shiras III. was found at home,
meditating upon the new turn of affairs.
He was asked regarding the resolution to
adopt the Crawford system, and replied: sit
is well worth trying. The delegate system
now in vogue has lost confidence with the
people. Whether the Crawford method
would prove better in the long run or not
is impossible to say without trial.
The present system would be more
favorable to me in case become candi-
date, on account of having my organization
complete, or nearly so, but if it is the desire
Of the County Committee to try the Craw
ford system in the coming primaries, I will
interpose no objection"

cacy of the Australian election system.
he said: "I think that method of voting al
elections is very desirable. A man can
then vote uninfuenced and secretly. 1t is
very desirable that an elector should have
the privilege of making choice between
candidates for public Office without being
boycotted for it think the meeting last
night in Carnegie Hall indicated its strong
approval of that part Of the resolutions.
Several influential men congratulated me
because 1 presented declaration for the
Australian method"
On the Congressional outlook, Mr.. Ken
nedy said that he believed George Shiras
to be the coming man.

A CLERGYMAN'S OPINION.
FATHER o'coNNELL DOESN'T LIKE THE
DELEGATE SYSTEM.

He Considers the Question One of National
ImDOrtunce-Other Emphatic Advocates
Of the Direct Voting Way-A Few
Prefer the Present Way.
Rev. Father O'COnnell, Bishop Pbelan s
locum teReRS, was opposed to saying much
on the subject. "You see," he observed,
clergymen are averse to publishing their
political sentiments. However, IS this
seems to involve a question of national
good, don't mind saying that I heartily
approve of the destruction of the delegate
system"
Several of the Catholic pastors in Alle-
gheny thought as Father O'Connell did.
Charles Miller, chief clerk at the Monon-
gahela House, said: 81 have nothing per-
sonally against any of the candidates, but I
think under the circumstances that the
nomination on the Northside belongs to Mr..
Shiras. He was in the race from the begin
ming, and made a good run. The popular
vote shows that ne was close to Mr..
Bayne. The latter has hurt himself
with his friends. 1t certainly wouldn'
please me if I worked hard for a
mans election, and then he should decline
to serve. Colonel Bavne should have noti-
fed his friends of his intentions. Mr..
Shiras is bright young man, ambitious,
and think will make a good representa-
tive.
THE ONLY FAIR WAY.
"Certainly the only fair way of holding
primaries is by the Crawford county system.
1t is the only way of getting at the popular
opd io he r1noplp uhn shnuld alaat
every time. should like to see that sys-
TEN adopted in Allegheny county. 1t
would prevent such political chicanery as
practiced in the recent Allegheny conven-
tion."
Detective Mcclure, of Allegheny, declared
emphaticalIy for the Crawford county sys-
tenn. 1t was the only fair way of nominat-
ing, he thought and would put stop to the
wrangling, contesting and boiling in con-
yentions. Mr.. Mcclure said that he was
emphatically for George Shiras for Con-
gress.
WOULD HAVE BEEN NO SPLIT.
Officer Andrew Scott, of Pittsburg, said
that be believed in nominating candidates
bv popular vote. If that system had been
in use, he said, there would have been no
split in the Allegheny Senatorial district.
Several of labor's stalwart children were
interviewed W buC PiOPOSSO AubIO-
ductiou of the Crawford county mode. Mr..
Sam J.. Black, of Rebecca street, Allegheny,
a bold and uncompromising Shirasite,
highly approved of the change suggested to
the committee He said: ''This plan will
put the election really in the electors hands.
1t will crush any attempt at bribery, or at
least make bribery very costly and labor
ious mode of procedure. 1 feel confident
that our George would have whipped Tom
Who silly il the Crawford county plan had
been in practice during the late fight, in
stead of the delegate mummery now in
vogue"
Mr.. Arthur Thompson, of South avenue,
Is English BY birth. SIN English political
conventions" he said, sit has always been
the custom to proceed by means of dele
gates. can't seen how the Crawford county
method, as you call 1t, could be made to
work nicely. 1t is much too tedious. 1,
