DOCTORS WAGE WAR.
Homeopalhs Ask Admission 10 the
Allegheny General Hospital.
THEY WIN A FIGHT IN COUNCILS.
The Appropriation ordinance Sent Back fer
Reconstruction.
FEDERAL STREETS GRADE is SETTLED

Allegheny Common Council chamber
was the scene, last night, of lively tourna-
ment between the allopaths and homeo-
paths.
Councilmen took a hand in the fight. for
it started over the ordinance sppropriating
$40, 900 to the Allegheny General Hospital.
1t had passed the Select branch of Coun-
ellis, but the homeopath physicians had
awakened and fought against the city,
money being appropriated unless their
school of medicine had representation in
the hospital. The allopaths fought hard,
but the bomeopaths won, and the ordinance
was referred back to the committee for re-
construction.
The special meeting was called to pass the
ordinance for the regarding and paving of
Federal street, from Robinson street to Isa-
bella. The ordinance was passed with only
Councilman Drum refusing to vote.
Then the ordinance appropriating $4,000
to the Allegheny General Hospital was
called up, and with it came regular March
storm. Mr.. Rudolph was the first kicker.
He said he objected to the ordinance be-
cause the city physician had to go through
too much red tape to get patient in the
hospital.
START OF THE FIRE.
Mr.. Knox started the fire by saving there
should be a representation of homeopathic
physicians in the hospital, since both
homeopaths and allopaths contribute tine
money which is to be appropriated.
Mr.. Mcdonald offered an amendment to
the effect that this appropriation should be
made on condition that three homeopathic
physicians should have place on the staff
Of the hospital; that they should have
| charge of one-sixth of all the charity
patients, and also have the privilege of at
tending any of their patients who may be
in the hospital.
Chairman Snaman, OF the Finance Com
mittee, said the two schools would not work
together in harmony, and he was in favor of
making an appropriation to establish a
homeopathic hospital.
Chairman Hunter also spoke of the red
tape necessary to place patient in the hos
pital, and told touching story OF death
that had resulted only on Thursday from
the impossibility of gaining admission at
| once.
DIR. Pitcairn made plea for representa-
| tion Tor the homeopaths, but he had hardly
seated himself when Mr.. Thompson made
the statement:
'You can't mix the allopaths and homeo.

CHANGE IN THE FACULTY.
A NEW PROFESSOR OF LOGIC AT HOLY
GHOST COLLEGE.


Rev. Father McDermott Leaves His Phila-
delphia Mission to Take the Position
Rev. Father Nolan Takes Charge of the
Colored People.
Rev. Father McDermott, of Philadelphia,
arrived in the city yesterday morning to
take the position of Professor of Logic in
the Holy Ghost College. Hewas sent here
by the order of the provincials, and they
supposed it had been kept secret. Father
McDermott refused to be seen on these
grounds. Rev. Father Nolan went to Phiia-
delphia and took charge of the colored
school left by Father McDermott.
Father McDermott founded the mission
for colored Catholics at Ninth and Pine
streets, Philadelphia, about one year ago.
The building was purchased by Sister
Catherine (Miss Drexel) Since Father
McDermott took charge of the mission he
founded the colored 0rphanage at 927 Pine
street, school for girls at 11OS Pine street,
a night school for colored young men and a
number of societies. Under his teachings
hundreds have been converted to the Catho-
lie faith.
The transfer caused surprise and much ex-
citement among the colored Catholics of
Philadelphia. It is said that Mr.. Morrell
and other members Of the Drexel family will
use their influence - have Father McDer-
mott recalled to Philadelphia. He was
universally loved and respected there, and
his transfer to this city caused general
feeling Of sorrow. His kind manner had
drawn to him the hearts of all those who
knew him, and especially the colored peo-
pie. for whom he had done so much. When
leaving Philadelphia Father McDermott
shed tears and declared that it was the sad
dest day of his life, but he being member
of religious order, vas compelled to obey.
The reason of the change could not be
learned, as everyone questioned on the mat
ter either would not isalk or did not know of
any cause for the action.

ANARCHY AND CHAOS.

Tonight the Anarchists VIII Celebrate
the Death of the Chicago Martyrs
Addresses by Mrs. Parsons and Herr
Most-k Call for Vengeance.
Tonight the Anarchists of Pittsburg and
Allegheny will hold memorial services in
Lafayette Hall to the Chicago Anarchists
who weer executed on November IL, 1887.
The affair is in charge of the United Work
ingmen's Association.
Herr Most will address the meeting in
German. An appeal will also be made by
Mrs. Lucy Parsons, who has been bailed
out of the Newark. N. j., Jail for the occa-
sion.
The hall will be blaze OF red. On the
walls will be portraits of Lingg, Spies,
Fischer, Parsons and Engle. Under them
will be banners bearing the last words of
each of the dead Anarchists and each por-
trait will be draped with red flags.
Yesterday both cities were flooded with
infammatory circulars. signed by the Com
mittee on Agitation of the International
Workingmen's Association, Some are in
English and some are in German. In one
place the circulars say:
What have the workers done to save their
councillors, their defenders. their hest friends? :?
Nothing. or next to nothing. The courage of
manhood was needed-instead. they collected
money. A daring deed would have frustrated
the November crime-instead, the working
people passed resolutions.
How different it might have been, if those
who participated in this kind of demonstration
hau made bold front, as the urgency of the
situation demanded.
Unfortunately there was no unanimity of
movement, only the Anarchists and Socialists
raising their voices. Later on they were Joined
by lukeWarm SympathlZerS. class of neonle
who deemed it sufficient to shed a tear of COM
miseration, give vent to curse.
The rest remained callous, or chorused the
cry. Cruelty them"
The species man suffered humiliat1ng de-
feat on the 1lth of November 1887, defeat
that can never be effaced; the brute attained a
triumph which would arouse the envy of a
Moloch.
The circulars also call on all men to
avenge the death of the so-cailed martyrs,
but 1t does not state how this vengeance is
to be wreaked.

NO MORE LAKE COAL.
Navigation for the season Will be Closed
Monday Night.

Navigation for the season Will be Closed
Monday Night.
The Lake Erie road yesterday notified all
its agents not to receive any more lake coal.
The last boat of the Detroit and Cleveland
Navigation Company will leave Monday
night, and this will wind up the lake trade
for the season. The Baltimore and Ohio
has issued similar orders. This has been an
unprecedented year in the coal business, and
the Lake Erie officials think when the an
nual report is made up that the coal
carried to the lakes by their line
will amount to about 10000
cars. The local coal trade has improved
very much, and the prospects are bright for
4 good business this winter.
The closing OF navigation will divert a
number of cars into other channels. Lately,
however, the roads have not lacked for cars
The roads all over the country have done
better this year than ever before IN their
history. An agent stated yesterday that the
demand for slack would be equal to the sup
ply in Pittsburg this winter. Superintendent
Holbrook, of the B. & O., said the coal men
were after cars to be used in local trade. The
return OF some OF the mills to coal has made
the operators happy.

WILL BE AIRED IN COURT.
The End of the Irvine Matter at Braddoclz
Not Yet in Sight.

The End of the Irvine Matter at Braddock
Not Yet IN Sight.
In September last, according to allega-
tions, publication appeared in number of
papers here and elsewhere, charging Rev.
l. w. n. Irvine, an Episcopal minister of
Braddock, with conduct unbecoming any
man, let alone minister, in which was con-
nected the name of a woman in Illinois. 1t
was also charged that Rev. Mr.. Irvine had
raised some 600 by mortgage on the
church property over which he had charge,
and, inferentially, that he had raised the
money for his own use.
The stir raised by this publication had the
effect to shorten Rev. Mr.. Irvine's European
vacation. Yesterday Prof. List, musician
and the correspondent of the newspapers
that published the article, found their
names on the trial list in Squire Edwards
court. Mr.. Irvine has engaged E. +. Duffy,
ESQ.,, to push the matter. but the defendants
cut proceedings short, yesterday, by waiv-
ing hearing and giving bail for trial at
court.
There is considerable feeling in Brad
dock on the subject, each side having strong
partisans. The TACT that Prof. List is blind
brings him partisans, but the prosecution
insist that the work was culpable, and that
the professor inspired the article because
disappointed in getting the position of
organist in the prosecutors church.

IT PLEASED EVERYONE.
Weather That Delighted the People and
Bore Earmarks of Indian Summer.

Weather That Delighted the People and
Bore Earmarks of Indian Summer.
The delightful weather of yesterday made
the general run of enthusiastic. comments
quite fashionable, for it was about as fine
as anything in that line experienced here
during the late fall. Everyone seemed to
enjoy il, and the streets were full of people
from morning until night.
Judge Fetterman, who numbers among
his many requirements some good hard
headed ideas on weather, ventured the
opinion that it was touch of Indian sum-
mer The Judge admitted that it was a
little late for spell of this kind, but he
said our seasons were undergoing constant
and notable changes. The winters
were becoming shorter and more
open and the elements of snow
and steady low temperature were
becoming things of the past. He heaved a
sigh as he remarked that the last really
first-class winter that had been experienced
here was in 18S0-81. Then it froze up as of
yore early in the game, and the snow came
down in blankets until the earth was COW
cred with good thick blanket of the beau
tiful, and the air was musical with the
sound of merry sleigh bells Tor weeks. On
March u the Judge bought cutter, and,
although his friends laughed at him, he
SAYS he had several rides in it out at his
country home before the season closed.
Since then, he said, he had not used the
sleigh half dozen times.
When asked how he accounted for the
climatic changes, the Judge replied that the
clearing away of the timber in these parts
was mainly responsible in his opinion. The
query seemed to brush aside few cobwebs
from the Judges memory, and he was
pluming himself for a few "reminiscences OF
years ago, when a client came in and the
conversation came to an uutimely end.

LEWIS IS NOT SATISFIED.

He Gets a Habeas Corpus to Have His Case
Heard by the Court.
John Lewis will have hearing in court
to-day on writ of habeas corpus, upon
which he was released from the workhouse
Yesterday. Lewis was arrested one night
about two weeks ago. He had been on a
drunk and about midnight was cele-
brating over the result of the cleo
ton by firing a revolver around his
house on the hill above Fifth avenue, Soho.
The neighbors, knowing Lewis was drunk,
were afraid he would injure some one. so
thev notified Officer D. j. Sullivan, who
went to arrest him. Lewis ran up the hill
side as the officer approached, and concealed
himself in the grass. Calling couple of
other officers to his assistance, Sullivan fol-
lowed, and came upon Lewis, who halted
him with the command:
"Stop, or I'll shoot youp'
The officers stopped, and perceived Lewis
lying fiat on the ground with the revolver
pointed directly at them. They stopped
and argued with the fellow for a moment,
while Sullivan stepped back and made a
detour, coming up behind Lewis unawares
Sullivan was within a couple of feet of him
before Lewis was aware of it, but he turned
like flash, and pointed the revolver at the
officer just as the latter sprang upon him.
Lewis struggled desperately, but was pre-
vented from using the revolver, and was
finally arrested and landed in the Eleventh
ward police station.
The next morning Lewis was sentenced 30
davs to the workhouse Tor pointing firearms,
and he was considered lucky by those ac-
quainted with the facts in getting off so
easy.
But Lewis was not satisfied with that
sentence, and yesterday, through his at
torneys, secured his temporary release on a
writ Of habeas corpus. He called on In
spector McAleese last night to get him to
intercede for him with the Court, but the In
spector was indignant, and informed him
spector, would enter another information
against him.

Keep Food Stuffs Here.
F. J. Weixel, of the firm OF Marshall,
Kennedy & Co., and President of the
Randall Club, went East last evening to
look up the prospects for the flour busi-
ness. The financial furry in England has
upset one of their markets. His firm re-
Gently received large order from the
other side, but the people ordering haven't
the money now to pay for it. The American
bankers are trying to draw gold from Eng
land, while the English financial men are
cfinging to it. The result is that the
grain dealers will have to look to home con-
sumption, and as the crops have not been a
glittering success, the outcome here will be
that prices will not be advanced. With a
good crop, and the English and continental
markets practically closed up, the farmers
would hot enjoy brisk times in America.
Mr.. Weixel SAYS that without the foreign
markets for food stuffs the American agri-
cuIturist would not be in it. There are not
enough people here to consume all the coun-
try produces.

AGAINST PARDON BOARDS.

A Lawyer Argues for a Rehearing Before
the Committing Judge.
Chaplain Milligan, of the Western Peni-
tentiary, returned last evening from meet
ing of the Prison Science Association.
An interesting paper by a New
York attorney, Mr.. Smith, was
read in which he took the position
that the Pardon Board should be abolished,
and all such hearings should be made before
the committing Judge. In case prisoner
was wrongly condemned he should be reim.
bursed by the State.
Mr.. Milligan said the paper provoked
considerable discussion, which was favor.
able to the change.
