GIVE UP THE FIGHT.
Some Baltimore and Ohio Yardmen
Say They Cannot Win the Strike.
FULL FORCE OF MEN NOW AT WORK.
Freight Moving East and West With
Unbroken Regularity.
GRIST OF A DAT FROM LABOR CIRCLES

There is every indication now that the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad difficulty. is
over, and that to-day or tomorrow the COM
pany will have their usual force at work day
and night in the Glenwood yards.
The men themselves have virtually given
up the contest. A meeting was held yester-
day afternoon, and committee, headed by
Master Workman Hawley, called upon the
officials of the company TO inquire what the
latter intended to do by way OF settlement.
They received as reply that the company
had already done all they would do and
the men might look for employment else
where.
One of the strikers said to DISPATCH
reporter: 'This is just what 1 expected all
along. 1 believed from the first that we had
been pulled into this thing in an irregular
manner, and am sure of it now. We have
no complaint that we can sustain.
NOT WANTED ANY MORE.
"we all quit voluntarily and asked for
our money. We got it and that settles it.
The company does not seem to want US any
longer, and we are unable to force our rein
statement The officials of our association
have not yet arrived and do not know
whether they will come now or not.
Chief Train Dispatcher Day was in
happy mood last night He said: I'VE
got three new men from Martinsburg to-day
and we will get IA more tomorrow. That
will give us all the men we need So far as
we are concerned the trouble is over"
There was considerable activity in the
Glenwood yards yesterday. Three crews
were employed in the yards, and two crews
kept things in motion on the junction.
Trains were moved with absolute regularity
on the Pittsburg and Wheeling divisions,
and for the first time silce the strike was
inaugurated work was pushed forward last
night Several large trains OF coke were
brought in from CoDnellsyille during the
day. and the local freight went out at the
usual hour. s o'clock, last night.
ASKING FOR REINSTATEMENT.
Three of the yardmen who quit applied to
Superintendent Holbrook for reinstatement,
but did not succeed. Mr.. Hawley main
tanned last night that the men could win the
fight if they would only stand together. but
he was the ouly member of the union who
could be found having a similar mind.
Most of them were very free to give up and
call it lost cause.
E. c. Martin, the night yard master at
Newark. o., arrived in the city last night on
the Cincinnati express, and had conference
with Superintendent Holbrook. 1t is stated
that there is a tilt between Superintendent
Holbrook and Train Dispatcher Drummer.
Mr.. Holbrook wants Mr.. Martin for night
yard master here, and Mr.. Drummer wants to
retain Mr.. Smith, the present yard master.
The matter will probably be settled by this
morning. In the meantime the yardmen are
still out.

HE WILL INVESTIGATE.

Coroner Mcdowell Orders the Postpone
ment of a Funeral-A Nephew Makes
Vague Statements About His Uncle's
Death-Foul Play Hardly Likely.
The Coroner was notified at 1890 last
night of the sudden death of Thomas
Parker, aged 81, resident of Welsh way
whose demise had occurred at S:15 Tuesday
night. The Coroner was very indignant
over the neglect shown by the relatives of
the deceased in not notifying him before.
A nephew of the deceased named j. W.
Parker, of Allegheny, called at the morgue
office at 1920 last night and told the Cor
ouer that his uncle had been drinking pretty
hard prior to his death, and that DR.. Potter,
of 1120 Sarah street, had issued burial
permit for him, giving the cause of death as
acute alcoholism, but there were several
marks on the face and head Of
the deceased that his nephew be-
lieved had been received unfairly. He
would not say whom he suspected of i'll
treating the old man, but acknowledged that
be had not been getting along very we'll
with his wife and grown u3 children. The
statements of Parker were vague all the way
through, and while be desired an investiga-
ton, he could give no very good reason for
it except the marks he described. He
wanted the Coroner to go over last night and
commence the Investigation, so the arrange
ments to take the remains to Butler county
for interment this morning could be carried
out, but the official decided that as he mad
been kept waiting so long the funeral could
wait day or so too, and he ordered the in
terment postponed until ne gives consent
for it to proceed.
The Coroner said he thought there might
be some family jealousy at the bottom o. the
whole matter, but he will investigate thor
oughly this morning. He thinks that if
there had been any foul play DR.. Potter
would not have issued permit.

THE PIG IRON OUTLOOK.
Next Year Promises an Increase of Over
Two Million Tons.

Next Year PROMISES an increase OF over
Two Million Tons.
The outlook for the pig iron trade next
year is already being discussed pretty
freely. In 1875 the consumption of pig
iron in the United States was 1000, 900 tons.
The unsold stocks at the close of that year
were 760, 600 tons, or about 81 per cent of
production. The price of No. December
1875, was S23 so per ton.
1t is now near enough to the close OF 1890
to estimate the production of the year at
5000, 600 tons, and good judges estimate that
the uusold stocks, December 81, will amount
to about $50, 600 tons. This would be about
4 per cent OF the production. with the price
approximately at SIG so per ton.
From present indications the consumption
for 1891 will be between 10, ,0O0, 600 and II, :
600, 900 tons. This is based upon the fact
that foundries, car works, locomotive and
and machine works, and in fact nearly all
the makers of finished iron, are being run
to their fullest capacity. The recent fnan-
cial check, now happily over. may prove
more far-reaching in its results upon gen.
eral business than is generally supposed,
but the fact of an enormous consumption
nevertheless remains conspicuous and reas-
suring.

DRILLING THE PUPILS,

Superintendent Luckey Fears Panic More
Than a Fire in the SchooIs-A FREES
cape Law That Has Been Amended Out
of Existence.
In the Second ward schools yesterday
the pupils were given a drill in going down
the fire escapes. In number of other
schools the same drill was given.
Superintendent George Luckey was asked
about the matter, and said: There is moth
ng unusual about these drills. In fact. fire
escapes on public school buildings are death
traps. In case of fire scores OF children
would be killed on the fire escapes. In a
panic you cannot control even grown people
much less children.
There is no need OF fire escapes on pub
lie school buildings. If the money so ex-
pended was used to put up escapes on
private houses and places where people
sleep it would be more sensible. There
should be fire escapes OH all hotels, apart
ment houses and similar places, but on
public school buildings they are a useless
extravaganza. Since Columbus discovered
America there has never been child
burned in public school, but hundreds
have been crippled in panics.
''The only safe method is wide stairways
and plenty OF them. No schoolhouse should
have less than two stairways. The only
school building in the city which might be
considered dangerous on that account is the
Hancock school, which has only one stair
wav.
However, 1 do not think there is any
danger of fire in one of the big schools
where thousand eyes are always watching.
In the daylight fire could not get so far
advanced, before it would be discovered, as
to prevent the whole school being let out by
the stairways. It is not likely that there
would be fire under more than one stair
way. The only danger is from panic, and
all the drilling in the world will not prevent
that"
A real estate dealer stated yesterday that
a dissertation on the law requiring fire
escapes on school houses, seminaries,
colleges, hospitals, asylums. hotels, factories,
workshops, tenement houses, etc., more
than two-stories in height, would be timely
at present, as it is important that the next
Legislature do something to make the act
effective. He was under the impression
that the law allowed any tenant to give a
landlord 80 days notice to erect fire escape,
and in case of failure authorized the tenant
to have the work done himself and deduct
the cost from rent, but such is not the case.
Since the act was passed In 1879. it has
been amended so often that like the Revoiu-
tionary musket, which had been "fettled"
so often that nothing was left of it but the
touch-hole, there is but little left of the law
but a loophole for the escape of violatofs,
that is, there is no inducement left for any
one to have the law enforced and the only
fear landlords have is that of suits for DAM
age by parties injured. and many landlords
will risk results
