JUDGE ACHESON'S SUCCESSOR.

United States District Attorney Lyon Said
to Be Slated for the PIace-His Friends
Sure His Backing Cannot Be Discounted
Both Senators for Him.
Here is little piece of news that has
been carefully hidden under a bushel so far
as the public at large is concerned, and yet
the rami6cations of the arrangement are said
to be more extensive than those of any other
project for making United States District
Judge.
1t is said that United States District At
torney Lyon has been slated to succeed
Judge Acheson in the District Court, in case
he should be promoted TO the Circuit Court.
1t is said Mr.. Lyon has the support of Sen
ators Cameron and Quay and Congressman
Bayne, and that Congressman Dalzell will
not oppose. Mr.. Bayne is said to be for
Lyon first, last and intermediately.
In addition to this, it is SAID Mr.. Lyon
will have the support of the State leaders
generally, and that his affiliations in this
respect are such as to make him the strong
est man in the contest.
His friends agree in his behalf that his
familiarity with criminal proceedings, as
Prosecuting Attorney, makes him peculiar
ly fitted to preside in the District branch of
the court, and, as this business under years
OF practice has become fixed in the District
Court, while the, Circuit looks after civil
affairs, the arrangement Is likely to be con-
tinued.
A friend of Lyons said yesterday: 'T
could give you much more information 60
ing TO show that he is likely to be the win
ner. but am not at liberty to disclose it."
While friends of other aspirants may not
accede all that is claimed for Mr.. Lyon, it
seems certain that the contest will grow in
interest until it is decided.

WHAT THE GERMANS SAW.
Impressions of the Metallurgists on the
United States.

Impressions of the Metallurgists on the
United States.
THE DISPATCH is in receipt of q letter
from Royal Secret Councillor F. c. CHASER,
in Berlin, announcing a series of articles
treating the journey made by the Society of
German Metallurgists to the United States.
They will be published as far as they will
be of interest to local readers.
The impressions which the visitors have
carried with them to their homes across the
sea have been, in general, highly satisfac-
tory and even gratifying, in spite of the
fact, so Mr.. Glaser says, that the shadow of
the Mckinley bill may have exercised
prejudicial influence upon the judgment of
the visitors.
After paying the tribute of gratitude to
the Hmitless and discreetIy administered
hospitality of the Americans, the relator
expresses his astonishment at the extremely
sharp contrast of American conditions as
compared with like conditions in Europe.
Highly developed industrial life and traffic
appears frequently in close contact with
primeval surroundings.
The effects of the visible natural wealth
is heightened by the consciousness, that only
a few decades ago the, forest primevaI threw
its shadow over the lasr survivors of the
Fenimore Cooper's heroes. where now
rapidly growing cities dot the vast expanse
of country.

Legislative Convention at Harrisburg. j.
F. Dempsey was the lucky candidate.
WILLING TO MAKE A LOAN.
Westinghouse Employees Vote to Deposit
Part of Their Wages.

Westinghouse Employees Vote to Deposit
Part of Their Wages.
The movement on the part of the employees
of the Westinghouse Electric Company to
help that concern financially, assumed a
tangible shape last night at the meeting held
at the Home Hotel. There were a large
number OF the men employed at the Garri-
son alley works present and the matter was
discussed for about two hours. 1t was
finally decided to leave the question to each
individual employe to do what he can for
the company, each to be governed by his
circumstances and the amount necessary to
provide actual expenses for himself and
family until the company pulls through the
present financial difficulty.
To-day petitions will be circulated in each
department for the workmen to sign, and
each will stipulate the amount he requires
for his own purposes, and the amount he is
willing to deposit with the company as
loan, to be paid back Immediately upon its
recovery from its present financial prostra-
tion. The scheme was favored bv all the
men present, and it will no doubt prove of
great value to the company. The plan, if
accepted by the company, is not intended
to 60 into effect until after January 10, as
that is the next pay day, and the men will
get full pay until that time.
At the meeting Of the directors of the
company resolution was passed concerning
the issue of pre- erred stock. 1t was de-
cided to give the holders OF common stock
the first chance until January 26. By pay-
ing S25 and yielding up a share of common
stock u share Of preferred would be issued
in exchange to any holder of the common.
The common stock is valued at S25,
but this is not the market price,
which is much lower. Any buyer of pre-
ferred stock can pay FOR it $40 per month
until paid. After all the expenses of the
company are satisfied, a dividend of per
cent annually, payable semi every
July and January is to be issued out of the
net earnings of the company on
the preferred stock. The payments on
subscriptions are to be refunded unless
total of 10000 shares of preferred stock are
subscribed ior

Secretary Brewer Expresses His Views.
Eben Brewer, Secretary of the Canal
Commission, who was also on the boat, said:
II used to live in Manchester, So years ago,
and this is the first time have been on the
river since left here. Iswas surprised how
much it had been changed. remember its
contour as it was Sc years ago, but the eu-
croachments have transformed the shore
lines so that could not recognize old land
marks"
Tue Ship Canal Commission met yester-
day. John NJ. Goodwin, Eben Brewer and
Colonel T. P. Roberts spent two hours in
looking over reports, and then adjourned
until to-day on account OF Captain John A.
Wood's absence on business connected with
the River Lines Commission.

METHODISTS IN TROUBLE.

Rev. j. T. Riley on Trial on Many Charges
Woes of Wilson Minnick to Re Aired
Again-None of the Testimony to BE
RepublIshed.
Another chapter of sensations from the
Methodist clergy of Allegheny county was
opened yesterday at the Methodist book
room, Smithfeld street, in the trial OF Rev.
J. T Riley, of Braddock. His story and
that OF Wilson Mlnnick are to be aired
again.
j. B. Jones, Presiding Elder of the Mo-
nongahela district, is the judge. The ses-
sion of this court is being guarded as a
secret, because the public already Knows
all the details of the case.
The charges against Mr.. Riley are those
of imprudence and immortality. They were
preferred by Wilson Minnick, a resident OF
Braddock and a member of Mr.. Riley's
church. He charges that his former pastor
has esiranged the affections of his wife and
interfered with his domestic relations.
Lately his wife has applied for and secured
a divorce.
The court which is to set in this case is
made up as follows: J. B. Jones, Judge;
E. S. White, w. c. Davis. A. P. Leonard,
L. r. Jones, S. L. Mitchell, o. A. Emer-
SUI anu IL IL 4hSAACSs CpunScl lOl bhC
church, Revs. Wilkinson and Taylor; for
the defense, Rev. Drs. Petty and Holmes.
A large amount of testimony is to be
taken, much OF which will be submitted in
the form of afidavits. Scarcely any testi-
mony was taken Yesterday, all the time be-
ing taken up in organizing and looking over
the papers in the case. None of the testi-
mony will be given out to be republished
until after the trial. The verdict of this
committee, of course, is not final. This is
nothing more than an examining board.
Final action will not be taken until the case
is presented to the conference. The eIami-
nation is expected to continue for a week,
and any amount of sensational rumors are
expected to be circulated, but nothing off,
cial until the close of the trial.
Wilson Minnick was at the book room
early yesterday morning and formally de-
manded admission TO the trial, but was re-
fused on the ground that the church was the
prosecutor and he was only needed as wit
ness.

NEED OF a NEW LEADER.
George A. jerks Thinks Blaine is Aching
for a War.

George A. jerks Thinks Blaine is Aching
for a War.
Ez-Solicitor General George A. jerks
went East last evening. Mr.. jerks thinks
the Republicans need q new leader in Penn
sylvania. He SAYS Senator Quay has been
turned down again by the election OF Thomp-
son. and if the people in this State won't
have him, he can't see how the country at
large will accept him. Mr.. jerks adds that
there is a strong feeling among the
country folk that they have been ignored
too long in favor of the cities, and they will
assert themselves this winter. He claims
this is good Democratic doctrine, and the
ann should be to run the Government as
chesply as possible and not to establish an
aristocracy. He insists on relief from taxa
tion, and saws as the difference between the
real and personal property of the country is
many millions the latter should bear more
of the burdens.
Mr.. jerks is still a strong admirer OF
Cleveland. and he thinks he will be nomin-
ated oD the first ballot by acclamation. He
saws the administration has struck an ugly
snarl in the Bering Sea trouble. 1t should
be settled by arbitration, but he believes
that Blaine would like to precipitate war
to keep mis- name before the people. When
he WAS Solicitor General Mr.. jerks said he
tried to have the same difficulty settled bv
the United States Supreme Court, but he
failed. He claims a case could easily be
made out, and il th- affair was adiudicated
by fair and impartial Judges posted on in
ternational law, England would accept the
verdict

PLANNING TO BUILD.

The Board of Directors of the Southside
Hospital Consul About Erecting New
Building When the Appropriation Is
Received-The Institution Now Crowded.
The Board of Directors OF the Southside
Hospital held meeting last night TO talk
over the affairs of the institution and make
some provision for the future.
Every available bed in the building is
now occupied by a patient, and Superin-
tendent Hertzhog is sorely taxed at times to
accommodate those who are sent for treat
ment On this account the management is
more than ever anxious to secure, as soon
as possible, the appropriation of S125, 900
asked of the State, and now in the hands OF
the proper committee of the Legislature.
Secretary Frost, of the Board Of Directors,
said that AGA patients had been treated in
the hospital since it opened. June /. 1885,
During the first year, up to June, 1890, 248
patients were treated, while 225 patients
have been treated in the past six months,
and the accommodations are inadequate to
this large increase. Many cases have gone
elsewhere. or have been treated by the hos
pital staff doctors at patients homes.
If the rush continues, additional room in
another building will probably be procured
until the new building is erected. Those in-
terested in the hospital feel assured that the
Legislature will make the asked-for appro-
priation, and have done some tall hustling
to present to the Legislators the needs of the
Southside for such an institution. The Sl25,-
600 would erect and equip building of
sufficient size. or the institution could go in
debt for portion of the funds necessary.
1t is understood that several offers of
sites are under consideration. AMI will be
made known when the building plans Of the
Institution assume more definite iorm.
Before the meeting opened, DR.. j. Milton
Duff showed the directors through the
different wards. and explained the nature of
the complaints, in some cases. In the
surgical ward, every bed was filled by men
with broken legs, arms, etc., all of whom
were employees of some of the mills or fac
tories on the Southside. or, in some cases, of
other parts Of the county. The hospital now
has quite run of cases from different Sec
tions of the city and surrounding towns,
which forcibly augments the necessity for q
State appropriation.

FIGHTING A CONTRACTOR.

Government Building Employees Strike
Against Their Employer.
. A strike occurred yesterday at the new
Government building, involving 100 plas-
terers, plumbers, timers, carpenters, hod-
carriers, granite cutters and skaters. The
trouble originated over the employment Of
non-union steamftters BY S. I. Pope & Co.,
of Chicago, andis the outcome OF difficulty
now hanging fire in Chicago.
A strike has been in progress for some
time and Pope is a master steamftter of
Chicago. His Chicago shop is said to be
non-union and union men are opposed to
working on jobs with which he has any con-
nection. Superintendent Pattison said he
had nothing to do with the difficulty and
the result will he watched for with preat
anxiety. 1t is clearly fight against the
contractor.

SHOWED DOWN $4,000.

Controller Morrow Cuts the Estimate of
Outstanding Warrants One-Fourth.
The estimates for next year were reduced
S54, 600 yesterday by Controller Morrow.
When the Controller made his report to the
Mayor the estimated amount of outstanding
warrants was given as S2O4, 900, but when
the years balance was taken it was found
the amount was only S150,000 This re-
duces the total amount of the increase OF
the appropriations for 1891 over 1890 to
S543, ,7S1 16. Even this amount will still
leave the city tax levy at II mills, provided
all the appropriations asked for are granted
In the face OF this, however, the city
officials promise it will not be over Is mills.

THEY WANT UNIFORM WAGES.
Sequel to the Meeting of the P. r. RS
General Grievance Committee.

Sequel to the Meeting of the P. r. RS
General Grievance Committee.
The result of the meeting held in this city
some time ago by the General Grievance
Committee representing the Pennsylvania
lines west of Pittsburg, cropped out yester-
day when list of grievances was presented
in a regular form to the division superin-
tendents of the roads centering in Pittsburg.
Mr.. Starr, of the Fort Wayne road, in ALLIE
gheny; Mr.. Turner, Of the Panhandle road,
at the Union depot; Mr.. Loree. of the Cleve-
land and Pittsburg road, at Wellsville, and
Mr.. Kimble, of the Erie and Pittsburg road,
at Lawrenceville junction, each received a
copy.
As stated at the time the committee was
here, there are certain Irregularities in re-
gard to the size OF the various runs, which
the men desire to have adjusted. They are
asking for the establishment of mileage
system Of pay, by which the Ntrainmen will
be paid for the distance covered on run in
stead of by the trip as at present. This will
make uniform wages, the point aimed at
when the committee was here.
