PUNISHED FOR CONTEMPT.
The County Clerk Sent to Jail and the
Ex COMMISSIONERS Fined $500 Each.

The county affairs muddle was again
before District Judge Seeds last evening,
the cases coming up for hearing at s
O'Clock. The courts decision was an
nounced this morning. In the matter Of
the refusal of County Clerk Pedro Del
gado to obey the order cf the court and
record the proceedings of the legally
constituted board--Messrs. Staab, Nesbitt
and Garcis-Judge Seeds ordered that he
be committed to Jail for contempt until
such time as lie shall purge himself,
and the court took occasion to remark 10
the sheriff that if the county clerk was
not kept in Jail by him, some one would
he found ~ho would execute the orders
of the court.
In the contempt proceedings against
ex.county commissioners, J. II. sloan
; and Teodoro Martinez, charged with con-
tempt in that they, in violation of the
courts order, issued ecton Certificates
to homulo Martinez, g. f. Easley and T
z. Gable, the court assessed fine OF 500
each against the two oex-colnmissioner and
directed the sheriff to see to it that the
fines were paid, other~ ise to commit the
pa ties to the county Jail.
The county clerk WAS taken direct
from the court room to the jail and in.
carcerated therein.
The contumacious ex-commissioner
have until tomorrow morning to take
their choice of paying the fine or 90 to
Jail. 1t is understood they will adopt
the latter course and that thereupon Gil
dersleeve, Childers, ct al, will apply to
the full bench Of the supreme court
for writ of habeas corpus.
In view of the fact that the Rio Chiquito
justices of the peace have heretofore had
some experience in this class of cases,
isn't it = bit queer that they should be
entirely ignored in the present emergency?

gical Department the following action was
taken:
Whereas, An allwise Providence has
taken from an active earthly career to the
lest of paradise our friend and fellow-la-
borer, William McCreery, our chairman,
and whereas, by his long association with
the West Penn Hospital (over quarter of
a century,, his earnest, unfagging zeal, his
unselfsh devotion to the hospitals every
interest and whatsoever promised increased
usefulness, by his warm-hearted, kindly,
cheerful spirit, by his ability as an execu-
tive officer and worker in every department
of humane and benevolent enterprise, and
by these and the many attributes which
stamp the good man" he has so endeared
himself to every member of this committee
as to make his death personal loss; there
fore,
Resolved, That while bowling beneath the
unexpected Providence, we deplore his re-
moyal as a serious loss to the hospital and
to this committee, and the suffering ones
who seek shelter and relief under hospital
roof have lost a sincere, warm-hearted
friend and sympathizer
Resolved, That We bear record to his
noble, manly character as an executive
officer, business man, public spirited
citizen, a sympathetic, helpful friend and
co-laborer, and that our sorrow at his re-
moval be expressed to his bereaved family.
Resolved, That this committee attend in
body the funeral services.
By order of the Executive Committee.

He said last night that the time service
system operated by the company, in con-

Company, of New York, had grown to
such importance in Pittsburg that
the company had decided to establish here
a duplicate of the clock at the Naval OBJ
servatory at Washington. 1t will be in
operation in about two months. The. COM
pany is also about to expend good deal of
money IN extending the time service to the
Southside, so as to embrace the mills and
factories in that section. While here Mr..
Henderson concluded contracts for service
clocks in the new Ferguson building, which
will have 119, and the Vandergrift, which
will have 7s. There is quite demand for
the time service, and so popular has 1t be-
come here that this city now ranks second

How They Are Thieving From the Farmers
on the Steubenville Pike.
If certain thieves, not italian. who have
their habitat between Forest Grove and the
Steubenville pike, knew to dead certainty
in what a vivid glare of light they stood one
night not great while since while conduct
ing their thieving operations. there would
probably be decrease in population in that
locality. On the night in question the
villains were loading themselves on the
property of Jonathan Phillips, who has
suffered considerable loss lately. They we're
observed by the entire family and several
hired people in the house by the vivid light
ming which lighted the hrniament as brill
iantly as MONDAY at intervals. So perfect
was the exposure that the lineaments of
each face we're not only fully brought out,
but the shade of his hair could be ascer-
tanned, and the parties were we'll known to
the family. -
For reasons best known to themselves the
family let the thieves continue their
depredations, but should any OF them be ap-
pretended on another charge he will likely
find it an uphill business to attempt to set
up good character, as the circumstances in
this case are well known In the neighbor-
hood and it has been greatly troubled by
thieves for some years past. They poison
dogs when they interfere, and this season
they have been unusually troublesome,
going so far as to dig up transplanted
tomatoes and dig out of the ground seed
potatoes, steal poultry, etc. In one case they
stole the mother hens with their chicks and
took flock of young ducks.

Agree on Wages-To Resume Shortly.
The Wage Committee of the window glass
manufacturers and workers met yesterday
at the office of r. c. Schmertz Co.. and de-
cided that work should be resumed at last
years prices. The workers, on their side,
abandoned the demand for an increase in
the gathcrers' wages of per cent: while the
manufacturers relinQuished their efforts to
obtain changes in the working rules. Messrs.
Chambers, Frazee, Hart, Loeffler, Lewis.
Keyes and d. Mckee composed the
manufacturers committee; the workers
being represented by Messrs. John
Eberhart, Swearer, Winters, Conoway
and three others. The committee
will meet again next week TO decide upon a
date for starting up the fires. Mr.. Loef1ler
said after the meeting that # would be be-
tween the LIST and 18th of October. 3, .
The condition of trade is conceded by the
manufacturers to be poor. The orders which
snould have been flowing in by this time
have not appeared. This condition of
things is placed to the account of the spring
and summer strikes at various points, tend
ing to embarras building operations. There
is no unanimitv of sentiment among Pitts
burg manufacturers to the advisability
of their wage committees action in resum-
ing work at the old rate. These men say
that if n reduction had been pressed for it
would have been granted and that if it had
not the time was ripe for strike anyhow.
1t is only deferring the tussle another year
Is how they regard It.

80 acter.
Considerable uneasiness was caused
among the parents Of children attending
the Morse sub-district school, Twenty fifth
ward, by the report last evening that nearly
40 pupils had been sent home for visiting a
child which was sick with black diphtheria
This report was the principal topic of dis
cussion on the Southside, and stories were
current about all kinds of epidemics.i A
thorough investigation proved the facts not
so bad as reported, though there is danger
of an epidemic breaking ONT.
The child visited by SO many school chill
dren was the s%-year-old daughter of Nor
gan Mcdonald of 2Sll Larkins alley. She
died on Monday last and was buried Tues
day. DR.. j.. Milton Duff was reported to be
the attending physician of the child: and
was was seer, seen in regnrd to the case He said l he
had been annoyed very much about his re-
ported connection with the case. Rumor
had it that he failed to report the matter to
the Bureau of Health in time, and. owing to
this. those in charge of the schools hRd no

pupils.

account of being ill himself. When he
visited the child he saw ut once that it had
diphtheretic Group and that it had but few
hours to live. He told Mr.. Mcdonald of the
serious nature of the case, but somehow. Dr.
Duff says, he was misunderstood and it be-
came noised about in the neiEhborhood that
the child was only suffering with Group.
For this reason a large number OF friends of
the family, among them a lot of children,
called TO sec the sick chilli before its death.
and at its funeral school children acted as
pallbearers. In conversation with Mr..
Mcdonald DR.. Duff says Mcdonald admitted
that he made mistake in telling his neigh
bors what he did, but said it was caused by
not understanding his advice.
The facts of the case were not
known at the school building until
yesterday afternoon, when Principal
Mcclure accidently heard of them He went
through all the school rooms at once, and
out of the room in which a brother of the
dead child was attending seven pupils were
sent home. Altogether there were nearly
40 pupils ordered to leave the school, and Il
second investigation is to be made to-day
which, it is thought, will result in some
more pupils being forced to leave. Accord
ing to law, each pupil sent home will have
to remain out of school 80 days before be-
ing readmitted.
