MIR. Harry W. Oliver Indisposed to Talk
About That Interview.
1t seems to be impossible to obtain from
Harry W. Oliver denial of the interview
attributed to him, which was published in
the Philadelphia Press of Friday morning.
Mr.. Oliver was in Baltimore, on his way to
Washington, at the time he is alleged to
have been interviewed on Thursday, and the
interview was dated from Washington. But
it was published in a Philadelphia paper,
and Mr.. Oliver had just been in Philadel-
phia. ...-
The interview was criticism upon the
iron and steel schedule Of the new tariff bill
prepared by the House Committee on Ways
and Means. Mr.. Oliver was quoted as say
ing that the bill was designed 10 injure the
iron and steel business that the reduction of
the tariff on structural iron to the same rate
as that on steel rails would be ruinous, and
that the proposed duty on barb wire was
wholly inadequate. He could not see wis
dom in the increase of duties on tin for the
purpose of creating new industry, while
fourishing industries now employing many
thousands of men were to be allowed to 60
by the board.
Mr.. Oliver returned from Washington
yesterday morning. He was waited upon BY
reporter during the forenoon at his office
at the corner OF Carson and South Twelfth
streets. Mr.. Oliver said that he had not read
the interview; had not time to read it, and
did not care to say anthing at all about the
matter. His trip did not agree with him, and
early IN the afternoon he went home ill.

SUING FOR $5O,OOO..
7. M. Latimer, the Allegheny Mer-
chant, Asks for That Amount and
TO HAVE TWO MEN ARRESTED.
One More Claim Entered Against the De-
funct Glue Company.
OTHER NEWS FROM THE COURT HOUSE

I. M. Latimer yesterday entered suit
for $50, 900 damages against Edward Groet-
ginger and Constable William Billings for
$4,000 damages. Latimer is in the dry
goods and carpet business on Federal street,
Allegheny. He states that Groetzinger is
sued landlords warrant against him,
claiming that j. E. Marshall and J. r.
Anderson were indebted to him $4,000 for
rent. Groetzinger directed Constable Bill
lings to collect the amount from the goods,
and Billings distrained goods to the
value of $4,000. Latimer claims
that Marshall 8, Anderson are not
indebted to Groetzinger, nor is he.
The facts of the case are, he states, that
Marshall & Anderson leased the place now
occupied by the plaintiff from Groetzlnger
at $4,000 per year. Marshall atterward as
signed his interests in the business to Ander-
son, who became embarrassed and was sold
out by the Sheriff Latimer purchased the
business, and Groetzinger has been endeav-
oring to obtain from him $40, 900, claimed to
be due on the lease OF Marshall & An
derson.
Latimer asserts that Groetzinger is aware
that he has no claim against him, and that
his actions have been illegal, vexatious and
malicious. He asks that capias be issued
for the arrest of the defendants.

three hours to translate 1t into "Asa:n

NOT A VISITING CARD.
The next was thought at first to be visit,
ing card, as it was written on piece OF
pasteboard exactly like one in shape. Ii
contained the following:
Dldget Ales.
How many are there who would read 1t
'Digitalis?"
The next was evidently from cleanly
housewife, who knew more about domestic
work than spelling, therefore it would have
been a shame if the druggist had carried out
his threat to send some whisky, as the best
article to use as the order described:
Five cents worth of reding to redden the
earth.
Now comes an order written as follows:
s Camfer
Ditto Hortshorn
Ditta Alcohall
Mix to Gether.
The following order also required ingenui-
ty to understand correctly:
cts snow fack wite
Gleserin
bay romp
few drops rose water
The first line is intended to read "snow-
flake white the second is intelligle, the
third is meant for bay rum. The writer ev-
identity went in somewhat more Tor style
than scholarly attainments.
Petroleum Y. Nasty never perpetrated
anything better than the next one. 1t is
clear enough for all practical purposes. but
the phonetic idea is too much drawn upon
in one way and too little in the other. It is

The next one is another "corker."

The translation is cream of tartar and sui

The last word is the phonetic in this case
for laudanum.
The next customer wants q hair tonic,
made by local party. The order reads as
follows:

Then follows in succession a number of
orders written on all sorts of materials, and
each containing but one word, intended, in
most cases, to represent the article
wanted. One wants "camphorated oil
and seltated Powder" which was in
telligible enough to the druggist.
Another wants "a Sifty," for asafetida.
Another "Slypery Allim'' The next is an
order for opodeldoc. 1t reads "Abedeltock,"
Then we arrive at 40 cts Chloric of Potash

LOSING THEIR PATIENCE.
Eighteenth Warders Talk of Adopting Wig.
orous Measures to Get Good Highway
Lawyers in Favor of Hauling n City

Eighteenth Warders Talk of Adopting Wig.
orous Measures to Get Good Highways-
Lawyers in Favor of Hauling n City
Official Up.
1t is pretty generally well-known fact
that the people of the Eighteenth ward have
been in chronic state of indignation ever
since the wet weather set in in November,
1888, over the bad condition of the highways
in that ward. One meeting after another
has been held and relief has been demanded
continually, but they say, without having
any effect and now they are seriously dis
cussing proposition to bring the matter to
an issue.
Among those vitality interested are
Charles u. Cornelius, Esq, and Colonel
Sawyer. Mr.. Cornelius says that as prayers,
entreaties, menaces and curses have alike
been Ineffective, they have been discussing
proposition to have the Chief of the De-
partment of Public Works, Mr.. Bigelow,
indicted for maintaining a nuisance.
Mr.. Cornelius says that were it not
for the good Samaritans who own
teams in the ward, travellers who do not know
the channel would never get through it, and
mired wagons. The straw that has broken
their backs is the neglect of Mr.. Bigelow to
ask for an appropriation for the roads in the
ward. Mr.. Cornelius says all the pavement
they have is that on Butler street, and that
it is not kept in overly good repair.
He further states that in eight
years the ward has paid
S150, 900 into the city treasury and has got
back less than s., 900, aside from the police
who assist man to run his saloon.
The indignants are particularly fierce at
Mr.. Bigelow because they say that when
they had called the attention of Councils to
their grievances they were favorably con-
sidered and the petitioners sat down in
blissful anticipation of at least ap-
proximate relief during the coming
been dashed, they have decided that some
other method must be tried They say
further, that park projects ought to rest
until people can get to and from their busi
ness without going on stills.
The method proposed is not new. Some
years ago grand jury indicted nearly all
the supervisors in Indiana county for
neglect to keep the highways in repair; and
some of them were made to hustle sharply.
H. A. Davis, Esq, has also during some
years past kept the Sewickley authorities
up to the scratch. He complained
to the executive officer of the
existence OF nuisance. but no attention
was paid to the complaint. After waiting
what he considered long enough to give
them time to bring forth fruits melt for re-
pentance, and they failed to bring forth,
Mr.. Davis made an information charging
them with maintaining nuisance. A true
bill was found by the grand jury, and the
accused were let off by paying the costs and
abatting the nuisance forthwith.
Mr.. Cornelius states that there will be
less trouble to make case against Mr..
Bigelow that there was to bring the Sewick-
leyites to judgment, as Councils gave him
the authority. and all he had to designate
the amount of money necessary and order
the work done.

A Charter Granted to nu Organization by
One of Its Members.


Judge White yesterday granted charter
to the Argonaut Hunting and Fishing Club
of Pittsburg. Recently the local courts
have refused charters to number of clubs,
the general idea being that they were formed
foE convivial and bibuloEs purposes. The
membership of the new club shows that it is
organized strictly for the purposes indicated
by its name. Judge White is himself on
the roll of members. Another is Chancellor
Goff, of the Western University of Penn
sylvania. Among the members who signed
the application for the charter are Milton B.
Taft, George A. Lashell, George Fleming,
William Laird and Rev. Mr.. Cochran. n.
L. Christy represented the club as attorney.
The club has bought tract of land at the
mouth Of the Indian river, at Bunt's Lake,
in the northern part of the southern penin-
sula of Michigan. 1t is on the line of the
Michigan Central Railway. Here it is pro-
posed to locate summer resort, with club
house and cottages.

stated that William Standish, who claimed
Pittsburg;as his home, and that he was en-
ployed by the Casino Museum Company,
had been arrested in Lynn, Mass, charged
with improperly OBTAINING young girls in
his room at his boarding house. Itwas also
stated that startling developments were ex-
pected at his trial.
Manager Connolly, of the Casino, stated
that Standish had been employed there, but
was at present on the road with some
freaks" He was in Mr.. Connolly's en-
ploy in the District Telegraph service, a
year or so before he became connected with
the museum and Mr.. Connolly does not
seem to think him bad sort of fellow.
Stsndish is native OF Boston, and being on
his native heath, ought to be able to take
care of himself.
