About two years ago we put up line out
Penn avenue and some meuallurgical klepto-
maniac stole it before we got it into use. A few
days ago similar case occurred in New York.
where rapid connections are being constantly
made OF account of competition to acquire ter
riuory. A whole district was stolen before the
connections were made.
Now you can see for yourself that it is an
easy thing TO have small iron wire costinr
about SO per mile, dead, as you have alreaGy
mentioned, through disseminating Connection
with telephones through changes in business
locations. This will be more readily under
stood when the labor of taking down that $40
worth of wire would cost S20 if not more. and
the average householder appears on his roof
with club to prevent any operations of the
linemen. When you understand that small
copper light wire is worth $50 per mile it will
be naturally concluded that there are no dead

A BUSINESS MANS VIEWS.

A stockholder in the Pleasant Valley
Electric Railway, and one of Pittsburgis
most prosperous business men, was inter
viewed at his residence in Allegheny yes
terday, on the subject of electric overhead
wires. He stated that he knew so little
about electricity that he did not wish to be
quoted, but before he finished talking on
the subject he demonstrated that he was
more conversant with it than half the people
who claim to be experts.
The only danger to be feared is from the
heavily charged electric light wires when they
get old.
There is no danger when they are first
put up, but the chemical action of the weather
on the covering for period of two or three
years will gradually corrode it or wear it off
entirely, thus leaving the wire exposed.

SMUGGLING ARRESTS.

Ocean Steamship Employees in
Trouble.
NEW YORK, June 8.-Five men are now in
Ludlow Street Jail and two more men are
out on bail on the charge of smuggling.
Those in Jail are John Hart, John Hughes
and John Baker, petty officers on the
steamer City of New York, and John Lath-
in, head barkeeper, and John Merdock, ship
of the City of Chicago. Those
out on bail are Eaward Baxter, dock clerk,
and John Ford, chief cooper, both en-
ployed by the Inman line at Jersey City.
The specific charge against Lathin and
Merdock is that on the 14th of last month
they brought into Jersey City lot
of ready-made clothing on which they
had evaded duty. Arrest would have been
made then. but the vessel sailed before the
matter could be brought home to the pair.
Hart, Hughes and Baker are said to be
wealthy Liverpool citizens, who made COM
Portable fortunes by just such practices as
that for which they are now under arrest.
"The men who did the smuggling were
got" said Inspector Briton to-day, but the
receivers are those we are after, and the
public will be greatly surprised when they
learn who and how many are concerned in
this matter. Four of the Inman steamers
are now in trouble in connection with the
smuggling. They are the City of Chester,
City Of New York, City of Berlin and City
of Chicago"

THE CONGRESSIONAL PROGRAMME

WASHINGTON, June 6.-Discussion of the
silver question will be resumed in the senate
tomorrow, the bill that was passed by
the house Saturday being substituted for
the pending measure on the senate calendar.
This will facilitate the disposition of the
matter. and it is believed vote on the bill
will be reached before the end of the week.
It is also believed that the bill as it shall
pass the senate will provide for the purchase
of 100000 ounces of silver monthly. Ger
tiicates issued in payment to be legal ten
der for all debts, and redeemable in lawful
money. Legislative appropriation will be
reported early and Senator Allison expects
to have it passed before the week ends.
Several appropriation bills are on the cal
endar in the house, and it is the intention
to dispose of these with this expedition
in order to avoid embarrassment to public
service by delayed appropriations at the
beginning of the next fiscal year. The pub
lie buildings committee is making strenu-
ous efforts to secure another special order
to rescue batch of bills hung up.

THE sHEEP-EATING PARROT.

A Taste for Live Mutton That Was Ac-
quired by the New Zealand Kea.
A singular bird has recently been added
to the collection in the London Geological
gardens-the much-talked-of carniverous
parrot, which confines its love of animal
flesh almost exclusively to mutton. Accord
ing to the naturalists that have examined
this rara avis, it possesses two qualities
heretofore unknown to birds of its speci es.
The first is this fesh-eating propensity, an
exception to the whole parrot family, which
is frugiverous, living on fruits, seed, leaves,
buds and the like; and second, that his car
niverous taste is not natural, but acquired.
This curious bird is the kea (nestor nota-
bilis), or mountain parrot. and comes from
New Zealand. In the time of the Maori
rule in New Zealand the bird was as inno-
cent and harmless as any of the parrot
species. and it was not until the higher
tracts of the country were utilized as sheep
runs that the kea was tempted to desert it's
fruit-eating habits and join the destructive
army of the carnivora.
About 1868 it was noticed that the sheep
of the uplands were suffering from sores
and stabs in the region of the loins, and
that almost invariably the sufferers were
those fattest and healthiest. Many discus
sions ensued as to what could be the cause.
Soon after some of the shepherds saw the
feathered cannibal seated on the hips of a
sheep helping himself to dish of live NUT
ton. From that day forward the bird was
known as the sheep-eating parrot-the
1eathered wonder OF the autipodes.

A NARROW ESCAPE.
The City of Rome Strikes Fastnet Rock il

The City of Rome Strikes Fastnet Rock in
Fog.
LONDON, June 8.-The Anchor Line steam
er City of Rome arrived at Queenstown this
morning. The vessel had narrow escape
from destruction at Fastnet. She made
land in dense fog at o'clock this morn
ing. She was going slowly and took sound
ings, when, notwithstanding the care exer-
cised, she struck Fastnet rock, about three
miles seward off Crookhaven. The bow of
her fore foot got on the rock, and but for
the prompt reversing of the engines, a great
fatality would have been recorded.
Passengers say the steamer trembled all
over when she struck the rock and for a
time there was intense alarm on board, the
density of the fog adding to the ominous
character of the situation. The passengers
were finally quoted by the repeated assur-
ances of the commander and other officers.
The full extent of damage cannot be ascer-
tanned until the vessel is docked. Her bow
is broken at the peak and she shipped
large volume of water forward. The steam
or started for Liverpool at II o'clock at
half speed.

To Beat the Syndicate.

CHICAGO, June 8.-English syndicate
rumors in the stock yard districts continue
to be very numerous. It isnow said a num-
Der of small stock yard stockholders will
make legal fight against the proposed sale
to the English syndicate. There is also a
rumor that purchasers of the Stickney tract
of land are long-headed capitalists, who
foresee the ultimate removal of the yards
further from the heart of the city. It is
predicted that the movement of heavy stock
yard stockholders to unload yards on Brit
ish capitalists is but a forerunner of the
movement to establish these yards.
