BALLARD's FUTURE.
Her Prospects OF Becoming the Princi-
pal shipping Point.

pal shipping Point.
Ballard mills are particularly fortunate
In their location, as they have not been
compelled to shut down for the want of
logs as some of the Seattle mills have been
compelled to do. The high winds that
have prevailed during the past week have
made 1t almost impossible to tow the
booms to their destination. Salmon bay
has sufficient logs on it's waters to keep the
mills busy for some time to come.
As soon as the sand bars are removed
from the mouth of the bay booms can be
brought in at any time, as the Sound is
protected on two sides from the wind.
1t is stated that the Great Northern will
locate Its coal bunkers on the west side of
the bay on account of the protection af-
forded the shipping in the harbor. From
all accounts trestle will be built from the
main roadbed on Shilshole avenue across
the bay to the proposed site for the bunk
ers. Piles are already moored at the head
OF the bay to be used for this purpose
The interest being taken in Ballard by
the Great Northern road is having good
influence on other industries. The build
ing of the car lines to connect the country
north and east is said to be partly due to
this cause, for as soon as the roadbed is
completed, business will crowd in and
around Ballard and make it city of SUBJ
stantial means.
posed canal through to Lake Washington
is another source of expected revenue to
the city. When the canal is once opened
ships will anchor before the city of Bal
lard and deposit their cargoes from every
quarter of the globe. Unlike many OF the
poFts'along the Pacific coast, such vessels
will pot have to be sent away with their
hulls bullying out with gravel or sand, but
the products of the country back of Bal
lard will occupy the storage space of the
vessels, and iron ore, steel plate, manufac-
tured lumber, grain and provisions will
take the place of the returned cargo fur
nished from other ports.
Fully realizing the importance of having
good shipping facilities, the members Of
the city council are taking the initiatory
steps in having 1.-The sand bars removed
from the mouth of the bay. That work
will be accomplished before another sum-
mer has passed, and ships will be receiving
and discharglng cargoes within the sound

The objection to paying for Mill street
and Yesler avenue is that the property
owners consider they should not have to
pay for improvement, much Of which has
been ruined by the manner in which the
work was done. The fault is not due SO
much to the contractor as to the reckless
ness with which the work was undertaken,
the usual method Of cutting being absurd
when applied to such soil. The heaps of
earth-covered sidewalks, now utterly
worthless, are silent testimony to the
justice of this complaint.
The property-owners on Dexter street
and West street have not paid because the
old city council promised to make re-
assessment, and that has not been done.
Several owners on Dexter street have
paid, some under protest. The rate was

HOW THEY CAME TOGETHER.

Local Politicians Discussing the Reconcile
ation of Qusy and Magee.
The reconciliation between C. L. Magee
and Senator NJ. S. Quay, when and where it
occurred, and how and by whom it was
brought about. forms an interesting subject
Of discussion among local politicians. 1t
has beer generally supposed that the two
leaders met for the first time since estrange-
ment at the late Republican. convention at
Harrisburg. Those conspicuous in bring
ing about the reconciliation, however know
differently. One of them said last night that
Quay and Magee were brought to-
gether in the Seventh Avenue Hotel in this
city month before the convention. Shortly
before the convention Mr. ,Magee visited
the Senator at his Beaver home and then
and there peace was declared. Since then
they have been fast friends and they are
closer together now than they have been for
years.
Postmaster Mexican and others of his class
had much to do with bringing the two men
together The fight between the two lead
ers was decidedly costly to themselves both
of whom could well afford it, but it was a
constant drain upon the resources of their
friends, especially the federal and municipal
office holders

A POINT FOR GUFFEY.
He Succeeds in Delaying the Selection of a
Successor to w. L. Scott

He Succeeds in Delaying the Selection of a
Successor to w. L. Scott.
J. NJ. Gufey returned last night from
Washington, where he attended the meeting
of the Division Chairmen of the Democratic
State Central Committee. Mr. Scott was
gratified with the action of the committee
in delaying the selection of sue
ceSsor to the late William. L. Scott
on the National Committee. The de-
Law is construed as an important
victory for Mr. Guffey in his contest against
Secretary of State Harrity for Mr.. Scott's
place on the committee. Mr.. Harrity, it is
said, was extremely anxious TO have the
Division Chairmen name him to succeed
Mr.. Scott. Guffey's only hope was to have
the matter DELAYED, and the appointment of
Chairman Kerr to fill the vacancy on the
committee was directly in line with Mr.
Gutfey's efforts. Mr. Guffey's friends nov
contend that the State Committee when it
meets in February, will continue Kerr in
the vacancy until the State convention
meets, when they believe that the new COM
mittee chosen by the State convention will
be against Secretary Harrity for the place
and Mr. Guffey will be chosen for q full
term,
81 have not vet announced myself as a
candidate for place on the National Com
mittee," Mr.. Gufiey said. 'The indica-
tions are / will be a candidate when the
time arrives. When go into the contest
am hopeful that I can win against Mr.. Har-
rity. He has not been the brilliant success
that we have all been led to think him.

1t Would Cost Sc,OOO,OOO, but Experts
Think 1t Will Pay-Fire Engines Could
Be Dispensed With, and Better Protec-
tion Secured.
DIR. Winslow's proposition to secure the
water supply for Pittsburg from Lake
Chautauqua finds plenty Of endorsement
among the citizens Superintendent Baker,
of the Health Bureau, says the plan is
feasible, and he has always, he says, favored
such plan. No effort has been made by
the health officers to test the quality of
water supplied to Pittsburg. Mr.. Baker
said the water did taste and smell of oil,
but the evidence of oil has now wholly dis
appeared, and the water is pure as it has
ever been. He has paid no attention to the
statements of others regarding the water as
he believed the oil was in no way harmful
Before the present water system was con-
structed Miliner, Roberts, n civil engineer,
made a vigorous effort to have the city pipe
its supply from Lake Chautauqua. He es-
timated then that the cost to the city would
be about S2,000,000; but with his PROPOSE
tion he submitted guarantee that all the
fire engines in the city could be dispensed
with, and that the natural force Of the
water would throw q stream much higher,
stronger and better than any engine made.
Superintendent Baker thinks this plan
could be carried out now. While the cost
seems extravagant, there would be a saw
ings in so many directions that the city in
the long run would be the winner
Another recognized authority on the SUBJ
ject said: eff it be true, as is argued and
generally admitted that the force Of the
water from the lake would throw a stream
high enough and strong enough to protect
from fire our tallest buildings then we
should lose no time in getting the system
perfected regardless of cost. There is no
way of concealing the fact that we have
lately had some big and costly fires, and a
strong flow of water will not cost much
more than pipe line to Lake Chautauqua.
Notwithstanding Superintendent Bakers
statement as to the present purity Of the
water the oily taste was quite perceptible
in the city yesterday, and was even worse

color, and complaints were very loud and

L00SENS THE KNOT.
Wyman's Withdrawal Simplifes the
Allegheny Situation.
THERE'LL BE BUT TWO ASPIRANTS
Why Allegheny's Chief Executive Was Suitor
for an Empty Honor.
POLITICAL GOSSIP OF THE TWO CITIES

The withdrawal of Mayor Wyman from
the fight for national delegate promises to
simplify the political situation in Alle-
gheny. The official announcement Of his
refusal to run was the general topic of con-
versation among politicians on both sides
of the river yesterday, though such move
has been expected since charges were en-
tered against him. This leaves the field
clear for William Witherow, and it is con-
ceded on all sides that it is now but ques-
tion o. selecting the other man.
That other man will likely be either B.
F. Jones, ex-chairman Of the Republican
National Committee, or Thomas A. Parle,
Chairman OF Allegheny Common Council.
Either of the latter men will represent the
reform element, while Mr.. Withrow has not
been classed with either side. Even with
Mayor Wvman in the field he was regarded
as strong man by virtue of the fight he
made four years ago. Then he came within
an ace of winning and was only defeated
through a combination of the forces of Peter
Walter and Thomas Bayne
Only Two Candidates Expected.
Now, both these factors are for him, as
we'll as his old following. With all
this staring them in the face and with no
real object to gain by opposing him, it is
believed reformers will be content with one
candidate as running mate with Mr..
Witherow.
From good political authority it is learned
delegate means his practical withdrawal
frov eir NTr
secured his second term as Mayor he has
been trying to capture the Office of Sheriff
His campaign for delegate was but part
of his plan to secure that office. Through
that honor he hoped to strengthen
his position in the city and also gain an in
huence in the county. Delegates set up for
the delegate convention would later have
been his delegates for Sheriff With this
power in his hands he had hopetbto force
the Pittsburg leaders to place his name on
the slate.
ParI>e VIII Run if Jones Wi.hdraws.
When William Witherow was seen YES
terday he declared that with Wyman out of
the field it was impossible to beat him. He
also stated that he did not believe there
would be any fight, as only one other man
was likely to be put up He thought Chair
man Parke would be the man. Neither

yesterday, but it is understood Mr.. Parke
will be candidate provided Mr.. Jones does
not want to run.
Another bit of gossip which tickled the
political palate in Allegheny yesterday was
that Postmaster Gilliiand was indebted to
his supposed political friends for his pres
ent troubles. 1t was stated that as the
postmaster had not proved the partisan
bulwark that was expected, they are anx-
ious to supplant him with man of keener
political instincts preparatory to the
troublous times expected in next years
politics. The reformers, to whom the
trouble was attributed, absolutely deny
they have taken a hand in the affair.

ARRESTED FOR BURGLARY.

Officers for Two Weeks

Patrick Lynch Is Caught After Eluding the
Officers for Two Weeks.
Patrick Lynch was arrested on Market
street yesterday, having been wanted by
the police since October 80 for completely
with Harry Kennedy for breaking the show
window of w. w. Watties store on that
date. The window was broken by stone
at about 3 o'clock in the morning. Kennedy
was arrested at the time. He claimed that
there was no intention of robbery, but he
had fight with Lynch, who threw stone
at him. Kennedy was held for court on q
charge Of attempted robbery, but Lynch
kept ont of reach of the police.
Yesterday morning Captain Denniston
saw him standing on Market street, and
knowing that Lynch would run if he went
after him the captain got Janitor Jim
Williams OF Central station to catch him.
The janitor looked very innocent with his
suit of overalls and jumper jacket, and
Lynch did not suspect him until Williams
had him, then Captain Dennston came up
and placed him under arrest. A charge of
attempted burglary will be made against
him to-day. Lynch is ouly 20 years of age
and las neither home nor occupation.

Burglary.
Assistant Police Superintendent Roger
OMara has been making an effort to learn
something of Charles Manley, caught trying
to enter the residence of Simon Beymer, at
Fifth avenue and Neville street, about a
month ago. Yesterday he received letter
from Captain of Police John d. Shea. of
Chicago, who recognized the pris-
oner's picture published in the Po-
ice Nem& The letter said Manley's
real name was Larry Murray, and that he
was released from Joliet prison, Illinois,
few months ago, after serving nearly 16
years there on IS different charges of rob-
berry, all of which had been committed by
climbing over verandas and entering by
second-story window. Just the trick he was
caught playing at Mr. Beymer's house.
Manley, or Murray, had received a sentence
of ID years, but part of it was commuted for
good behavior
Captain Jansen, of Milwaukee, and Chief
Schmidt, OF Cleveland, also sent word that
he was known 10 them in those cities and
they would likewise assist in his prosecu-
tion. Both of these latter officers allege
Murray to he one of .he most daring bur-
glars they ever heard of
