TAKEN BY STORM.

SouthsIde Police Officers Mobbed While
Trying to Arrest Two DisorderIy Men.
Inspector McKelvey and Special Officer
Corrigan had lively experience about 10
o'clock last night in an attempt
to arrest Frank Cregan and j.
R. Davis on Carson street, near
South Twenty-fourth street. The officers
were strolling along Carson street when
Cregan met Davis and struck him blow in
the face, which was answered in kind. Be-
fore they had time to get we'll under way
Officer Corrigan had seized Cregan and the
Inspector was performing the same duty to-
ward Davis. Corrigan had no difficulty in
taking his man to patrol box and
putting him into the wagon when it
arrived. He was scarcely in the wagon
however, before he leaped over the hand
rail and started up the street at a dead run.
He was soon recaptured by Special Officer
Corrigan.
As soon as the inspector had placed Davis
under arrest he and his prisoner were sur
rounded by several people who laid hold of
him. In the tugging and pulling he was
showed all over the sidewalk and finally
into the entrance to an alleyway. At this
place his prisoner had been carried away
bodily and the entrance blocked.
In the scuffle that had taken place for the
possession OF the inspectors prisoner, Mrs.
Hearbe had pulled and hauled the inspector
around, thrown dirt and gravel into his face
and struck officer Lewis in the face with a
stick, cutting his mouth severely.
Davis was recaptured a short time after
by Inspector McKelyey, and just following
it came the arrest OF George Hearbe, who
had taken hand in the scuff1e. Halt an
hour later Mrs. Hearbe came into the
station to negotiate for the release of her
SON and was also placed under arrest.

DEATH OF ECCLEs ROBINSON.
The Well Known Labor and Temperance
Leader Passes Away.

The Well Known Labor and Temperance
Leader Passes Away.
Eccles Robinson, one of the best known
temperance lecturers and labor leaders in
the city, died Unexpectedly at his home on
Washington avenue, Allegheny yesterday.
The deceased was nearly 40 years ole, and was
the grandson of the late General William
Robinson, the first white man born in ALLIE
gheny. Mr.. Robinson was well
educated, and his father. William O'Hara
Robinson, intended he should enter a pro.
fession. In early life, however, he expressed
a determination to learn a trade and served
an apprenticeship as a brass molder. He
followed this occupation for a number of
years. He soon became identified with the
labor question, and was at the head of the
half-holiday movement for molders which
was conceded by the majority of the bosses.
Later he discovered the plan was injuring
the business of the employers and he in
duced the men to give it up.
When the brass molders left the knights
Of Labor Mr.. Robinson went with them and
was made the first National Master Work
man OF their union. He was elected as a
delegate to D. A. 3, in 1887. and in 1888 was
eiecteu w orthy Horemdn oi InaI organlZa-
tion under John +. Doyle, Master Work
man. Mr.. Robinson represented the Pitts
burg Tube Works strikers before the Arbi-
tration Committee few years ago, and won
the strike for the men The last work he
did as labor advocate was to fill the posi-
tion Of associate editor Of the Connloner
and Glassworker, which he did in an able
and creditable manner. He was bright,
genial gentleman. fluent orator and as
temperance advocate, held meetings in
number of cities throughout the country.
He was associated with Francis Murphy
for two years, and did much effective work
in the temperance line. He stumped the
State of Indiana for Harrison. and was
credited by Chairman Huston with being
one of the most effective workers in the last
campaign. The deceased leaves wife and

NOT AN OUTING,
THE ANNUAL ENcAMPMENT FOR MILL.
TARY DUTIES ALONE.

New Rules OF Conduct at Mt. Gretua-No
Ladies TO be Allowed In the Cnmp n,
Nizht-visitors and Their HIeals-What
'is Thought of ir All.
Ladies will not be allowed to remain IN
camp over night at the division encamp-
ment at Mt. Gretna this summer, and the
entertainment OF visitors will be curtailed as
far as possible. By command of Brigadier
General Snowden, Assistant Adiutant
General North has issued circular
No. 1, marked confidential" in regard
to the regulations of camp. In the circular
he says that while ladies and children are
always welcome, it has been found their
presence is detrimental to military dis
cipline. He says: I'm encampments here
after to be held, they will not be permitted
to remain over night" In regard to rations.
the circulars read that their consum ption
by visitors and others has led to complaints
from the men. To entertain a visitor at
table hereafter it will be necessary to oh.
tain the consent of the Captain or First
Sergeant.
Colonel T. J. Hudson, Commandant of
the artillery service Of the State, was seen
Yesterday, and when asked about the cir
cular said: "At the last encampment at
Mt. Gretna, three years ago, I had consider
able trouble on this account, and am glad to
see General Snowden take the matter up. L
had number of complaints from the men
about not getting enough to eat, and in nv
report to the Adjutant General / recon-
mended that some measures be taken
to stop the abuse. We get so much
money every year to run the Guard, and so
many rations are issued to so many men.
q hora of -,
day and eat up the provisions, the supply
will of course run short about the last two
or three days. 1 also recommended prohib-
ltlng ladies in the camps after night. We
are always glad to see them during the day,
but when they stay over night their hus-
bands, or brothers, as the case may be, have
to attend 70 their wants and comforts. This
detracts from the military duties. The Ia
dies have been provoked at me for my ae-
ton, but 1 did it in the best interests of the
service. The idea OF holding camps each
summer is to give the men instruction in
military life, and it is not an annual out
ing"
Colonel N. NJ. Smith, commander of the
Eighteenth Regiment, said: II think tits
an excellent idea, and as far as the Eigh-
teenth's camp is concerned, the order will
be enforced to the letter. The regiment had
nau ieHer lauIes IN cam at nlgnt tnan any
other regiment in the State at the last
division encampment. The presence of
ladies puts restraint on the soldiers free
dom of intercourse off duty"
Captain William M. Awl, of the Eigh-
teenth, said: "Our regiment has always
tried to impress on the men the advisability
of leaving the ladies at home. They are
perfectly welcome TO come during the day,
but soldiers encampment at night is not
the proper place for ladies. There is no
doubt that their presence In the camp has a
good effect on the men, but it is contrary to
military discipline.

OF the Allegheny County Delegation TO
Wednesdays Stnfe Convention.
The Allegheny county delegates to the
State Convention met at O'Clock yesterday
a ternoon, in the Common Council chamber.
There was full attendance of the 16 dele
gates. Chief j. o. Brown was unanimously
elected Chairman of. the delegation. His
selection is very pleasing to the friends of
Major Montooth. William A. Mcdonald,
of the Second district, Allegheny, was
unanimously chosen secretary. 1t was de-
cided that the delegation would leave here at
s o'clock next Tuesday, on the special train
of the Montooth Club. William Finn was
authorized to secure 20 rooms for the dele
gates at the Lochiel Hotel in Harrisburg.
City Attorney William C. Moreland was
unanimously requested to nominate Major
Montooth in the State Convention. The
delegation will meet again at o'clock
Tuesday evening, in the Lochiel Hotel.
j. o. Brown and William Finn went
East last night. They will spend to-day in
Philsdelphia and tonight Mr.. Finn will

headquarters. The party will be headed by
Captain c. W. Bachelor.
The rumor current last night that a COM
bination had been formed with Delamater
for Governor and Montooth for Lieutenant
Governor, was discredited by the
friends of the Major. One of them was
heard to say: "Major Montooth will
not accept second place with Delamater;
you can put that down for fact" The
thorough understanding that has existed
between Major Montooth and General Hast
ings since tine commencement of the cam
paign is significant, and may bear fruit be-
fore the convention closes
A telegram was received last night from
Harrisburg, stating that the Pennsylvania
Railroad had decided to sidetrack
the train OF the Pittsburg Mon
tooth delegation at cross street
one square from the Union depot This will
give the members of the party the use of
their train and accommodations superior to
most of the hotels. Tickets will be ready
at headquarters tomorrow morning at 10
o'clock. The fare is 81 80 both ways, in
cluding sleeper and the use of sleeper in
Harrisburg.

TO SETTLE STRIFES.
Interesting Matters to Come Before
the July Session of D. A. 8.
DEATH OF MR.. EGCLES ROBINSON.
Manufacturers Are Salts fled With the
Amalgamated Scale.
A MACHINE FOR DECORATING GLASS

The regular quarterly meeting of D. A. 8,
K. of L.. will be held on Wednesday, July
16, at 101 Fifth avenue. 1t will be one Of
the most important meetings in the history
OF the district. Among other things to be
considered Is the trouble on the Pleasant
Valley road, which still remains unsettled
All the efforts of the K. OF L. officials have
failed to secure recognition from President
Henry.
The difficulty between the Musical Union
and the professional musicians, which is
hanging fire yet, will likely be considered,
as will also some plan whereby the trades
represented in two different organizations
can work in harmong with each other. The
reports will show that while a few small
local assemblies have withdrawn, the Dis
trict has made great advances during the
quarter, and is at present in good financial
standing.
The brass molders and brass finishers of
L. A. 2003 and 1710 will hold meeting at
O'Clock this afternoon at K. of L. Hall,
No. 101 Fifth avenue, to take appropriate
action on the death of Mr.. Robinson.
Some OF the assemblies which lett D. A.
8, are returning to the organization. A lit
tie over two years ago, all of the assemblies
composed of cigarmakers withdrew from the
district and formed National Trades dis
trict. Local Assembly 1874 went out and
Joined the National district, with the idea that
by concentrating their forces in one organi-
cation they could more successfully combat
the wrongs to which they claimed to be SUBJ
iected. They now feel it more beneficial to
be in D. A. 8 and are recorded on the books
OF General Secretary Hayes as having with
drawn from the National district and at
tached'to D. A. 8.
The action of the boiler makers in the
direction of shorter hours will be indorsed,
and other important business will be trans
acted. Master Workman Evans expects to
have very respectable reports as the result
of his first quarters work.

They Make Life Sad In O'Hara and Shnler
Townships md on Brunot Island-Farm.
ers Organize TO vigorously Protect
Themselves in the Fuiurc.
For several Sundays past the farmers of
O'Hara and Shaler townships have been
greatly annoyed by crowds OF people who seek
the country from city wards. Last Sunday q
crowd of toughs had pitched battle with
Shaler township farmer who ordered them
of his premises, and were only persuaded
to leave by the application of pitchiork to
defensive purposes. The grangers have
formed an organization to resist the appro-
prlatlon OF their lands to picnic purposes,
and lively times are expected il the tres
passers make their usual Sunday trips to-
day. In an interview. one of the farmers
said yesterday: 1--WE have stood these pic
mic parties for several years, and each sea-
son they grow worse. Formerly they asked
permission to use our land, but now they
camp out, tap their beer, and assault us if
we demonstrate. Why. only last Sunday
mob Of these people-nice and respectable
looking they were, too-camped In my pas
ture and MIXED three cows. When L OBJ
iected one OF them drew q revolver, and
said they would go when they got ready. In
view of these actions we have agreed to
stand BY one another, and the gangs to-
morrow will strike pretty big snag."
Brunot Island furnishes parallel case,
though the farmers there consider that they
have an added grievance in that they pay
Allegheny City for police protection, which
they do not get. They say the grievance
has been greatly aggravated and extended
since work began on the Ohio
River Connecting Railway bridge, as
it attracts many people. Toughs,
male and female, and the latter the toughest,
take possession of whatever may suit them,
and care nothing for meum ct tuum, and all
the inhabitants Of the island would be un-
able to dislodge them. The island is a part
of the Ninth ward of Allegheny, and pays
taxes for several things of which they can
not partake, but the people insist that they
should at least have two or three po-
lice on the island to assist them
in keeping city savages in order, if
not off private property, and for that
matter, all is private except the strip occu-
pied BY the bridge company. Last Sunday
night the Ishmaelites were caught in the
the violent storm, but they coolly took pos
session of the Heron Hill Shooting Clubs
quarters. The islanders would doubtless be
almost willing to allow the club to shoot OH
Sunday if its members would agree to pep
per the vandslic hordes that congregate on
that day.

Party of New York Arr Students Going
TO Make Pictures.
A party OF New York art students were
in the Union depot last night, busily identi-
flying valises and mysterious bundles of no
particular shape, which undoubtedly con-
tanned any amount of paint boxes, easels
and other sketching necessaries. Mr.. Frank
Duncan was the husiress m"narer of the
party. He said, while twirling pair of very
fierce mustaches: "We wni .>..I~In here or
rather make this city our headquarters for a

WE'LL ALL BE SATISFIED
WITH THE COMPLETE RETURNS OF
ALLEGHENY COUNTY.

Mr.. Oliver Carefully Comparing the Returns

arian md 7O-Year. Old Twins-An OBJ.
stinate Hungarian in JniI.
Census Supervisor Oliver said yesterday
that the returns were coming in rapidly and
the work was generally very well done. He
is comparing the returns with the last GEN.
sus, with recent voting lists and with the
directory, and he is confident that very few
persons are being missed, and that the resi-
dents of Allegheny county will be
very well satisfied when the totals are pub
lished. Further than this he'&ould not say
One enumerator made his returns Friday,
but said he was afraid he might have missed
some people in large boarding houses,
where he had been put off from time to
time. He was ordered to inform the keep
ers of these houses that they must obtain
the necessary information from their board
ers and have it in readiness for the enumer-
ator or be prosecuted. The enumerator OBJ
tanned 100 additional names. making an in
crease OF 8 per nent in his returns.
Mr.. Oliver is investigating all the cases
reported of persons who have been missed by
the census, but finds in nearly every case
that the enumerator has obtained the infor-
nation in good shape.
An Allegheny enumerator yesterday ran
against man who claimed to be 100 years
old, and another enumerator discovered 10
year-old twins.
John Slezak, a Hungarian, is in Jail,
where he can reflect on his obstinacy in re-
fusing to answer the census questions. The
information was made by George Lawless,
a census enumerator OF Braddock, before
United States Commissioner McCandless.
1t was shown at the hearing yesterday after
noon that Slezak refused to answer even
when interrogated by an interpreter. He
was committed to Jail for further hearing
tomorrow. This Is the first case in this
district where man has been sent to Jail
for persistent obstinacy in dealing with
census enumerators.

AJAX JONES' DREAM.
A Visionary Political Slate Causes His Mind

A Visionary Political Slate Causes His Mind
to be Perturbed.
Ajax Jones, the colored Demosthenes Of
Pittsburg, has had a vision, and his spirit
is troubled thereat. He is an ardent Mon
tooth man. and therefore his spirit grieves
and he re uses to be com forted, even when
confronted with the old adage that dreams
60 by contrairies.
Ajax retired to his couch on Friday night
after spending the day in deity scraping
the chins OF a number of our best citi-
zens. His mind was full of politics, and he
slhmbered uneasily. Suddenly the wall OF
his chamber disappeared, and in It's place
he saw a scroll inscribed as follows:
President-Speaker Reed.
Secretary of State-Bayne.
Governor-Quay.
Lieutenant Governor-Stone.
Assistant Postmaster General-Hastings.
United States Senator-Fitler.
Ajax would like to know what this por-
tends.
