the assistant chief is in IL. The three gen.
tlemen in the department scarcely speak to
each other. Suppose there was conflagra-
tion. All should act in harmony. Some
body should be discharged before we can
have that. The committee mas not the
power to do that, but something must be
done.
A CLERK WHO SHOULD BE HoSEMAN.
Chairman Simon Ito Chief Murphy)-I
have been informed that the clerk to Chief
Jones should act as hoseman. Does he do
that?
Chief Murphy-Yes, sir.
Chairman Simon-I have been informed
that he has never slept in an engine mouse.
Chief Murphy-Not that know of.
Chairman Simon-Isn't that necessary?
Chief Murphy-Well, don't know.
The ordinance creating the clerk to Chief
Jones was hunted up and found to provide
that hoseman should act as clerk IN addl-
tion to his other duties. His compensation
was $50 month extra, making 500 month
salary.
No ordinance defining the duties of
hoseman could be found. Chief Murphy or
Chief Jones were not asked for the informa-
tion and did not volunteer it.
Chairman Simon-I understand he puts in
all his time at the City Hall when about at
all.
Mr.. Stauffer here changed the subject and
made defense of Superintendent Looms.
More help was needed for him, ana ne
moved that the Chairman of the General
Committee prepare an ordinance providing
for an assistant.
Mr.. Drum objected. The matter was
irrelevant. Had there been an assistant,
and him away, too the trouble would have
been the same. An assistant was not needed.
After some further discussion, Mr.. Staut-
fer's resolution was adopted by 4 ayes to
nays.
The committee then adjourned to meet ut
the call of the Chair, when the assistant fire
chief gets home. As they did so, Mr.. Drum
exclaimed: You can congratulate your

here for.

MILLER'S BIG MONEY.
Bill for James w. Miller Before the
Connors Robbery-Miller Says His Vim

james Gernert says he Changed $500
Bill for James W. Miller Before the

dication Cannot Be Broken Down.
Excitement still runs high on the "Shoe-
box" Miller vindication, published exclu-
sively in THE DISPATCH of Monday. Yes
terday, as the day before, it was the talk of
the town. The question most asked about
the proof is: "Why did Mr.. Miller allow him
self to be convicted when he knew that such
evidence was available?"
For answer Mr.. Miller SAYS: In the first
place, when Dunn fell there was bullet
hole in his breast and another in his back
Miller was then very young, little over 81
years of age and his first desire was to es-
cape. As has been stated efore, his counsel
advised him not to say anything about the
Cleveland affair, as there was no evidence
to convict him i'll Clarion county, and there
was no use to run the risk of having wrong
construction placed on the shooting Of
Dunn. He therefore kept silent, and when
he saw that public sentiment was such that
he was bound to be convicted, whether
there was any evidence ornot, he discovered
that he could not testify in his own behalf
1t is further to be remembered that within
27 days after the arrest he was in the peni-
tentiary. There was neither time nor op-
portunity for him to produce this proof. In
the search made for The DISPATCH there
was Mr.. Miller, detective and reporf er
all of whom were schooled in that very kind
of work. They had liberty, money, and
nothing to fear, yet it took ten days and
nights of the hardest kind of work to gather
this evidence. Ten years ago Mr.. Miller was
alone, practically friendless, and confined in
a country Jail eight hours ride from Pitts
burg. How could it have been possible for
him to have produced these proofs in the
time that was allowed him? he asks.
AS for the fact of Mr.. Miller carrying large
sums of money, James Gernet, who was a
bartender at the Red Lion Hotel during the
time that Miller stopped there in 1879, 1850
and 1881 was interviewed yes ierday, and
said he frequently knew Mr.. Miller to have
had large bills on his person. He saws
Miller was in the habit of spending large
sums of money, and that at one time long
before Miller's arrest, he had gotten a $500
bill changed for him at Holmes & Sons
bank. He said he was accompanied by Mr.
Scott, who was then collector for the ice
company which supplied ice to the Red
Lion Hotel.
AS to the statements and innuendos that
have been thrown out regarding statements
set forth in Mr.. Nlilers vindication, that
gentleman is hard at work, and says he will
prove every one of the insinuations false
Yesterday Roger O'Mara boasted that he
would bring Jack Reeves here from Cleve-
land and positively identify Miller as JIMMY
Ryan. AS to this, Mr.. Miller says it is beneath
his notice, as it has already been shown, by
detectives o. fully as much ability as
O'Mara, that Ryan is dead.

SETTLING A STRIKE.
The Bricklayers' Misunderstanding
Becoming a Thing of the Past.
AN APPRENTICE UNIVERSITY
Now Being Built on the Ruins of the Board
of Health Office.


If the statements of both parties to the
| controversy are true, the memorable brick
layers strike of 81 is practically thing of
the past. Secretary McAfee, of the Build
ers' Exchange, said yesterday that the con-
tractors in Allegheny had all the men they
wanted, and that 80 union men had been
added to the pay rolls of the contractors on
| this side of the river. He also stated that
they were obtaining all the men they wanted
from outside of the union and that no con-
tracts are now suffering on this account.
The same happy state of affairs exists on
the side of the workmen, according to Sec
retary George Speed, of the bricklayers.
He says shat they are now carrying but
40 men on the strikers pay rolls,
as against 80 last week, and
125 week before last. At this rate the men
will all be at work at the rates demanded
within few days. These men, he says,
are all working on contracts for themselves,
which they find no difficulty in obtaining.
The men who are contracting for themselves
are all paying men under them the de-
manded rate of s. so day, and are lending
all possible assistance to the supply men
who are not members of the Builders Ex-
change.
THE CLAIMS ON BOTH SIDES.
The Union men claim to have been unus-
ually successful in inducing foreign work.
men to return to their homes and in pre-
venting the importation of others. Thus
both contractors and workmen seem to be
doing quite well.
In this connection the Builders Exchange
yesterday commenced active work in a mat
ter which indicates that it has an eye to the
future, The first bricks were laid,
is to be used as bricklayers'
training school for boys, an institution
which has been much discussed. The
structure is being erected on Seventh street,
on the ruins of the building occupied by the
Board of Health before the fire. Secretary
McAfee stated yesterday that the building
was to be merely a temporary one, and tnat
1t was being erected on leased ground.
A SCHOOL FOR APPRENTICES.
The structure however, is being built Of
brick, in substantial manner, though it
will be but one story high. AS soon as it is
completed, which will take about three
weeks, competent instructors will be
selected. and all bright boys between the
ages of l6and 1Swho desire to learn the brick
layers trade will be accepted as pupils free.
Upon entering the school the boys. will be
bound, however, to serve an apprenticeship
until they become of age at wages to be ad-
vanced at stated periods. A regular blank
form OF application for admission is being
prepared, naming the terms and conditions
OF admission, which can be obtained within
a few days on application.
Mr.. McAfee stated that this was but an
humble beginning and that within short
time general training school for all trades
would be started. At the present building
the trowel and a few of the minor details of
the trade.

THE ENTRANCE PAID FOR.
Controller Morrow Winds Up the Schenley
Park Transactions.


The city now owns the % acres of land
constituting the Schenley Park entrance.
Controller Morrow yesterday paid W. A.
Heron, agent for Mrs. Schenley, s75, 900, and
received the deed to the land. This ends all
transactions between the city and Mrs.
Schenley with regard to the park.
The last payment on the Sl20 900 paid for
the original park tract was made few
months ago Controller Morrow at that time
issuing to Colonel Heron a warrant for $62,
900, covering interest. The $4,000 fixed as
the price for the 9acre entrance was nm
paid until yesterday, although the city has
been in actual possession of the land for sew
eral months. The delay was caused by
legal red tape and correspondence between
this city and Mrs. Schenley's legal repre-
sentatives in England. The deed for the
property, acknowledged by United States
Consul John C. New, did not reach Pittsburg
until yesterday.
Immediately upon its arrival Colonel Her
ron presented the decd to Controller Nor
row, who promptly turned over in return
warrant for the S75,00o and the Schenley
Park purchase was made complete.
The payment of this purchase money
leaves only about $40 900 in the appropria-
ton for park purposes for the current year.
The appropriation 1926 sol 40. Out of
that amount have been paid the second in
stallment on the Schenley Park purchase,
the purchase of several large additions to
Highland Park, the Schenley Park bridge,
and all improvements made this year In
both parks in addition to the entrance pur-
chase.

A WESTERN SENATOR ON POLITICS.
He Says All Is Harmony and Blaine or Har-
rison Will Withdraw

rison Will Withdraw.
United States Senator Honsbrough, of
North Dakota, passed through the city on
the limited, last night, bound for his home in
Devils Lake. He said that Mckinley would
surely win in Ohio by handsome majority.
In reference to Blaines chances for the
nomination for the Presidency, he thought
they were good. "There is a very strong
Blaine feeling throughout the West" said
he, "but Harrison is gaining ground every
day. He is very popular with our people.
1 have just come from Washington, and
there is no doubt in my mind that every
thing is in harmony in the Cabinet. 1 think
when the convention meets, if it is found
that Blaine is the stronger of the two, Har-
rison will pull out of the fight, and vice
versa"
In regard to the third party, Mr.. Hons
brough said: eve have no third party in
party In Dakota. We have the finest crops
this year that we have ever had. We will
put in the market 0,0O0, 900 bushels of wheat,
and have plenty for home consumption and
seed. What the Dakota farmer wants is
dollars worth of gold for bushel of wheat,
and not 75 cents worth of silver, and they
are going to have it," The Senator thinks
that the Republican party will be victorious
in '92 no matter who is nominated. When
asked who he thought the Democrats would
put in nomination, he said it would be q
struggle between David B. Hill and Senator
German. Cleveland, he thinks is not in it.

ANOTHER FURNACE SHUTS DOWN.
The Vesuvius Strikers Felt Very Much En-
couraged Yesterday.

The Vesuvius Strikers Felt Very Much En-
couraged Yesterday.
The strikers at the Yesuvius mill in Sharps-
burg were feeling quite jubilant yesterday,
and there was an air of confidence in the
outcome about Amalgamated Association
headquarters. The cause of this was the re-
fusal of a number of non-union men to re-
sumo their places in the plate mill depart
partment yesterday morning. In conse-
quence only two furnaces in this department
were in operation. 1t is in this part of the
works only that the mill owners refuse to
pay scale rates, and yet there are no fires in
the pudding furnaces. Just what has
caused this change of heart among nom
union workers is not answered, though it is
believed that new inducements have been
offered.
President Weihe seemed to be quite well
pleased with the situation, though he de-
cllned to talk on the subject further than
to say that number of men had quit work.
The strikers were all well supplied with the
necessaries of life and will continue to be,
but many of them are out of money.
