MKEAN DENIES 1T.
The Man of Many Contracts ForE cts a Few
Things,

The Man of Many Contracts ForE cts a Few
Things.
E. ]. Mexican, the ball player, now visiting in
this city, wired Al johnson, of Cleveland yes
terday to the effect that the statements credited
TO him (MeKean) in yesterdays DISPATCH
were false. A denial of this kind coming from
Mexican is not remarkable; indeed, 1t is COM
mOnplsce. Every statement published was
made by Mexican to a gentleman whose
veracity cannot be impeached, and who has not
made q business of taking oaths and breaking
them and signing contracts and trampIine
them in the dust Tne gentleman to whom
Mexican talked is man OF honor and truth.
Neither is it surprising that Mexican should
express opinions and declare intentions dia-
metrically opposed to each other in hotel
talking TO newspaper reporters when he has
done the same deliberately on legally prepared
documents. Whether Mexican is Brother
hood member or whether he is a National
League player will probably not affect the
earth's motion, but it certainly is to be ex-
pected that he will not attempt to drag others
down to the same mutability Of mind as him
self.
Mexican also informed Mr.. johnson that
Pittsburg is a great Brotherhood town.
Mexican evidently discovered this after he had
unbosomed himself to waiting a little
longer before determining which side he
would be on. However, let it be emphatically
stated that Mexican was quoted correctly in
yesterdays DISPATCH.
Late last evening Mexican was seen regard
ing his telegram TO Cleveland. He was con-
fronted by his interviewer, and admitted the
truth of the interview. But he said, II
think told you that 1 was with the Brother
hood. II did not, 1 should have done so. 1
am legally with the Brotherhood, because
think they can hold me by my contract. I've

A REPUBLICAN CRUSHED.

Speaker Reed Refuses to Eaterfaln n
Friends Motion to Adjourn.
SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.I
WASHINGTON, February 12.-Speaker
Reed astonished one of his Republican col.
leagues this morning by turning the tables
upon him. and refusing to entertain his mo-
ton to adjourn. The venerable Mr.. Walker,
Of Massachusetts,, who is one OF the Speak.
er's most persistent and enthusi-
astic admirers, was the victim, and
all the Republicans are wondering
whom Reed will turn upon next. When
the House met at II o'clock there was
very slim attendance. The Chaplain in
voked divine counsel upon the meeting, and
the clerk read the journal. Following the
usual tactics, the Democrats demanded a
roll call on its approval. The Republican
side of the chamber was especially thin, and
some of the Republicans feared that q
march was about to be stolen upon them.
Mr.. Walker saw a chance for distinction,
and at once moved an adjournment, which
motion the Speaker promptly decided to be
out of order.
That such a ruling would apply to Re
publican motion had never entered Mr..
Walkers head. He was astounded, and
when he had recovered his breath he ex-
claimed in agonizing terms: "Whatl Mr..
Speaker, motion to adjourn not in order?"
His distress was great and so evidently real
that every man present laughed at him.
There was no appeal from the decision,
however, and Mr.. Walker sat down in con-
fusion, utterly crushed.

NEW CASTLE, PA. February 12.-Msttie
Coyle, maiden lady of Sharon, who will
shortly bring suit against the estate of
David Sankey, father of Ira D. Sankey, the
celebrated evangelist, for the recovery of
SO, 900 on judgment which she holds, and
alleged to have been given to her for saving
Mr.. Sankey's life, related the following
strange story to your correspondent tonight:
Zone day during the year 1891 was then
residing in New Castle-while was pass
ing down the Westside hill saw Mr..
Sankey slip and fall. A team of horses.
hauling a load of coal, were approaching
toward him, and would have run over him
had I not, at the risk of my own life. dragged
Mr.. Sankey out from under the horses feet.
He was quite aged.
"At the time of the accident he said to me:
You have saved my life at the risk of your
OWL, and shall remember you for it. On No
vember 8 1884, a lady called at my house in
Sharon and handed me an envelope which con-
tained judgment note for $4,000. Accom-
panying this note was u letter stating that the
bearers name was Mrs. Mary ]. Brown, and
that she had been charged with the delivery Of
the note"
Miss Coyle further stated that she presented
the note to Mr.. Ira D. Sankey and that he only
looked at it, saying that it resembled his
fathers writing. The note was drawn with an
indelible lead pencil, and bore the date of No
vember 2 1882 Miss Coyle states that Mr.
Sankey's heirs pronounced the note forgery,
and Ira u. Sankey claims that his father never
transacted business with a lead pencil.
David Sankey, who Miss Coyle claims signed
the note, died early in January, 1884, in the
winter before Miss Coyle received the note
She says she will collect the amount the note
calls for if there is any possible means Of doing

PENNSYLVANIA'S WAR CLAIMS.
Favorable Committee Action Probable o
the Reimbursement Bill.

Favorable Committee Action Probable on
the Reimbursement Bill.
FROM STAFF CORRESPONDENT
WASHINGTON, February 12.-It is ex-
pected that favorable report will be made
some time next week by the House Com
mittee on War Claims on Mr.. Maish's bill
for the repayment OF the claims occasioned
by the border raids during the late war. A
member Of the committee said to-day that
from careful canvass of his fellow mem
bers he was of the opinion that the COM
mittee would benearly unanimous in recon-
mending the passage of the bill. The
bill calls for an appropriation of So, ,447,-
945, of which 5000, 900 Will go to reimburse
the State of Pennsylvania for disbursements
made for the immediate relief of sufferers
from these raids. and the bulk of the re-
mainder will go to the citizens of Chambers
burg, who lost heavily by the destruction Of
that town by fire during the early raid.
The bill provides that the money be paid to
the Governor of Pennsylvania for the use of
the claimants whose claims have been ad-
Indicated and filed with the Auditor Gen
eral of the State.
The House Committee on War Claims
has ordered favorable report on the bill to
pay $50, 900 to certain families in the county
of Schuylkill, Pa, due them as the pay of
soldiers provided by said families to the
general army during the late war.

BOOM IN COKE TRADE.

No Dizziness Anticipated, and Heavy Ship.
menIs Looked For.
rsPEoIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.l
ScoTTDALE, February 12.-The boom in the
coke trade may be considered at an end for
few weeks to come and the market may be un-
settled and depressed. Many operators hold
that there will be no dullness in trade and that
shipments will be nearly as heavy as they have
been the last few weeks. A duilness may be
caused by the high prices demanded for coke
and consumers filling up well on account of
apprehension of the strike. The satisfactory
solution of the wage question may have been
the cause of some firms to renew their con.
tracts, but the companies who order in lots are
cutting down orders decidedly
The operators are compelled to ask Sigh
advance for coke on account of the increased
cost of production and there is fear on account
of the fOrcible kick Of iron dealers that some
of the orders will be taken to the West Vir-
ginia and Reynoldsv1lle fields, where coke, al.
though inferior in quality, may be gotten at
much lower figure.
The shipments for the week under review
were not as large as usual. although they were
quite heavy. The signs for this week are that
shipments will be up to the average If the con.
signments to Western points on NJ Monday are any
indication. They will sum up to 900 cars.
The operators generally express themselves
as being well pleased at the outcome OF the re-
cent conference, and everything points TO
year of peace in the Connellsville region. The
railroad companies are not bothered in the
least Wlbn any SCdrclIy Oh CARS nanQS OF nOClVe
power. and this year will, if nothing interfsres
show the largest shipments of coke. The for
eign trade in coke will materially aid this re-
gion,
The Pennsville Coke Company will build
so or so new ovens additional to their Penns-
vile plant next spring.
The MahonIng and Mayer works are still idle.
Last week the shipments averaged l.267 cars
per day, or 1905 cars for the entire week, a
falling off Of IS cars. In tons they amounted
to lSe, 800. The shipments were distributed
thus: To points west of Pittsburg,
4,425 cars; to points east of Pittsburg,
1,50O cars; to Pittsburg, 16S0 cars; total, 1905
As will be seen, shipments to points west of
Pittsburg fell of S35 cars, while shipments to
Pittsburg increased 100 cars.
As predicted by THE DISPATCH not long
since that by an amicable settlement of wage
troubles coke would take jump to S. and
even higher. 1t has demonstrated itself, and
to-day it is reliably stated that 81 Is is being
asked. This will make . decided change this
week for coke prices at principal points of con-
sumption. Last week the OLD prices, 81 rs 81 05
and So IS were still being used. Prices were
then quoted at large cities as follows:

Desert tue Brotherhood.

NArs Appleton Ouefs hicnardsou S10sUUU to
Desert tue Brotherhood.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcHs
ELMIRA, N. Y, February 12-W. l. Apple
ton, a director of the National League is in
this city endeavoring to secure Danny Richard
son, the second baseman OF last years New
York club, from the Brotherhood. He arrived
in the city last evening and was closeted with
the baseball player the greater part of the
night. Mr.. Appleton talked eloquently of the
pleasant relations which had always existed
between the directors of the National League
and MI. Richardson during the latters six
years connection with the New Y York club and
said he thought Richardson ought to stick by
the League. Appleton then presented as
more persuasive argument 5000 in cash, which
amount he offered as advance money for his
signature to a League contract for three years,
and to pay him $4,000 for his work for that
length Of time.
Richardson declined this offer, and he closed
his determination to remain with the Brother
hood. Mr. Appleton is. however, persistent,
and will remain here some time vet. To DIS
PATCH reporter this afternoon he expressed
perfect confidence that he would finally secure
Richardson's signature. He said this method
had been determined upon by the directors as
cheaper method of killing the Brotherhood
than battle during the season, in which was
inevitable financial loss for both leagues He
said they had decided to pay large sums to a
lew OF bne DeSI- Oh lne brOInernOoQ players,
and if these were secured, he thought the
Brotherhood would go under Richardson has
been one of the most ardent supporters of the
Brotherhood, and Mr.. Appleton appears to
think that if he can secure him his object will
be easily accomplished.
He intimsted that, if necessary he would in
crease the amount offered to Richardson to
$4,000 for the three years. He said he regarded
him as one of the best ball players in the coun-
try, and If he could be secured he would be
made second baseman and captain of the New
York club. Richardson yet holds firmly to the
Brotherhood. but it is thought that he shows
signs of weakening and may yet be signed by
Mr., Appleton.
