mated the Scheme.
#H. L. McGaw attended the meeting OF the
Central Trades Council last night IN the
hope that something definite would be done
with his case. The committee simply re-
ported progress and Mr.. McGaw was ac-
corded the floor. He wanted to know why
the matter could not be settled and how long
the farce is to be continued. The committee
was not all present, and he is getting tired OF
the delay In the case. He said he did not be-
lieve the committee ever intended to make
report.
F. Carroll was admitted as a delegate
from L. A. 10,604 Theatrical Assembly.
W. S. James resigned from the Executive
Board, assigning as his reason that he was
unable no attend the board meetings.
William F. Davenport was elected to fill
the vacancy.
A communication was received from the
German Typographical Union No. g. in
closing S4 80 for the relief of the Dunbar
sufferers.
A communication was also received from
the Central Labor Union of Erie, with ref
eieuce " SeuuluS ueleSaIeS 10 cOnVenLlOn
to form a State trades council to be affiliated
with the American Federation of Labor.
The convention is to be held at Harrisburg,
October 20.
1t was decided, however, that owing to
the conditions under which the Central
Trades Council here is formed, being COM
posed of delegates from mixture OF
unions and assemblies, some being under
the Federation of Labor, some of the K. of
L., and others connected with neither Or
ganization, it would be inadvisable to send
delegates to the convention.
This announcement of the Erie Central
Labor Union, it is asserted, is but stealing
the thunder of the Pittsburg Central Trades
Council. Some time ago circulars were sent
out by the Pittsburg Trades Coun-
Gil to the Trades Councils of
the various cities in the State relative to the
formation OF State trades council. The State
council was to be composed of delegates
from the local councils, irrespective of the
general organizations. The Philadelphia
council, though, did not respond, and
Reading was not quite ready. After a
lapse of . few months, however, the Erie
union started similar movement, but with
the intention of making it Federation of
Labor organization.

A NEW UNION STAMP

To be Put on the Bottom of All the Union
Made Flint Glassware.
All goods manufactured in union glass
houses hereafter will be stamped. About a
dozen stamps to be used for that purpose ar
rived at the Office of the American Flint
Glass Workers Union yesterday. They
are of steel made in the form of stencil.
The stamp is in the shape of a shield with
the letters GA. F. G. W. o." inclosed. The
stamp is not more than three-quarters of an
inch in size and will be placed on the bot
tom of all patterns, made by union work
men. The stamp will make very slight
indenture in the molds and will be hard to
detect on the goods.
G. M. Murphy, mold maker, who de-
signed the stamp, said yesterday afternoon
the association had heretofore been given
considerable trouble with people selling
non-unlon goods as union made. The stamp
to be used has been patented and will be
used under rule OF the association, and OF
course, any using it will do so by means of
a counterfeit and will be guilty of misde-
meanor.

LOVE, SUNSHINE & co.
A Combination of Names That Amused an
Observaut Man.

UDservaut N1an.
'Did you ever notice the names OF busi-
ness firms on their signs as you walk along
the street," remarked man yesterday with
an ohservant turn of mind. "On the prin-
ciple that present company is always ex-
cepted, I won't refer to the names of busi-
ness firms IN Pittsburg. But what do you
think of this for combination.
"a few days ago l was in a neighboring
town, when l was attracted by this sign,
Love, Sunshine & Co. The two should 60
together, but whether in this case the part
ners loved each other, and in consequence
there was much sunshine, 1 didn't stop to
inquire. 1t struck me as peculiar, and 1
couldn't help stopping and looking at it.
Such names, combined as they are, ought to
make men famous in spite o. the saw that
there is nothing in name, anyhow. Irish
& English was another sign that caught
me. Just at this time, when these two
classes have no particular love for each
other, the association of the names resem-
bles the lying down of the lion and the
lamb. Hereafter look at the names that
compose partnerships, and you will fre-
quently be amused"

Surrounding Territory.
It is now stated in railroad circles that
the Baltimore and Ohio road has secured
control of the Allegheny and Snenango,
and. with the assistance OF other lines, will
form a route to Buffalo shorter than the
Allegheny Valley by 80 miles. The Pitts
burg and Western will be used to Butler,
the Allegheny and Shenango to Mercer,
from thence the road will be extended to
Franklin, whers it will connect with the
Western New York and Pennsylvania,
making the route to Buffalo 239 miles long.
1t is claimed that all the mysterious dick
ering OF late between the Baltimore & Ohio
and Pittsburg and Western is now made
clear. The B. & o. has been anxious to
get into Buffalo and the oil regions
Through the Valley and the P. & w. it has
a good line to the lakes.
The new combination will give PIttsburg
another outlet to the North, and will be of
great assistance to local industries, partc u
larly the coal trade.

VISITORS TO PITTsBURG EXPOSITION
Can Make $50 Clear.

Last year it cost US upward of 1000 to
exhibit at the opening Exposition. We
have been Kept so terribly busy this sum-
mer, however, in selling our pianos and
organs, and banjos and mandolins, and
guitars and brass horns and sheet music.
that we actually found no time to get up an
exhibit for this years show. However, We
propose to give our customers the benefit of
this great saving, so that anyone who will
buy piano or organ, or any other instru-
ment, during the continuance of the fair,
will get the benefit OF an extra reduction in
price of goods OF 5 aud 10 per cent. Visitors
to the show can therefore make some $50 by
calling on H. Kleber & Bros Mrsic
Store, SOC Wood street, and buying one of
their instruments. They are the sole agents
for the famons Steinway. Conover, GabIer,
Opera and Emerson pianos; also for the
wonderful Vocation church organs, and the
mouse and dust-proof Earhutf parlor organs.

not get at Kleber's is not worth having

The Chief Mourner Refused to Pay the Ex-
pressage on n Corpse.
Usually when man has lost near rela-
tive, his heart is heavy and sad. and he
thinks little of financial matters and kindred
subjects, but is inclined rather to discuss
the virtues of the deceased. In the days of
the Pittsburg and Western express, before
it was merged with another company, a
body was shipped to some point on the road.
The clerks were surprised the next day to
receive sharp note from the chief mourner
demanding the excess paid, which he put
down as "over charges on corpse"
The incident has been regarded by the
employees as standing joke, and has been
carefully handed down from the musty past
They still tell about it with chuckie on
the other side of the river.

THE LAW IS GENERAL.

1t seems to us that the act of April IS. 1887. is
q general law providing for the sale ana pur-
chase Of property, and for the care of the Door
These acts in relation TO the care of the poor
and the property held for the care of the poor
in cities of the second class can only be sus-
tanned, and independent of the general law.
on the ground of the legislative power to
classify cities. That this power exists is an
open question To what extent is difficult
and doubtful question.
Continuing Judge Ewing said that in the
case of Howard versus the city PiItsburc,
they gave reasons tor sustaining as valid,
the act Of June IA, 1857, as against the title
and TO the main provision of the act, the
main objections raised being substantially
the same as in this case, it was not necessary
to report but simply re er to them as reasons
for holding the acts in relation to the poor
affairs of cities OF the second class to be con-
stitutional, nor until reversed by the Su-
preme Court did they feelinclined to change
their views.
In conclusion the decree Was refused and
the bill dismissed.
