THAT CONTRADICTIONS OF MILLER.
He Is Now Out of the City and Said to Be
Searching for Further Proof.

He Is Now Out of the City and Said to Be
Searching for Further Proof.
Since the publication in THE DISPATCH
of the afidavits in the Miller case it has
been reported that police records in Cleve-
land have been found that place the date of
the shooting of Frank G. Dunn on the night
of January 1 instead of March %. The
latter date was that on which the Connors
robbery was committed, and on that fact
was based the alibi. At the time when
Miller visited Cleveland no record of the
shooting could be found in the police
dockets, and Detective Granger, who visited
the house on the night of the shooting, de-
clared there was none. The afidayits as to
the date and circumstances of the shooting
were all given freely by the witnesses. The
date given in the afidavits was, the same as
told by each of the witnesses without any
suggestion at that time from Miller.
About the time that James w. Miller
published his affidavits in The DISPATCH
his engagement ring was returned by Miss
Mosby to Mrs. Mair. Miss MosbY ex-
planned the return of the ring by the state
ment that her family did not wish her to
wear it until Miller had cleared himself
She said she did not wish to break off the
engagement, and so decided to let Mrs.
Mair become its custodian for time.
An attempt was made yesterday to see
Miller in regard to the story from Cleve-
land, which stated that the shooting took
place in January, not in March, and which,
if true, would upset his alibi. 1t was stated
by his friends that he was out of town, one
of them adding that he had gone to Cleve-
land to prosecute further search for VIM
dication. In his absence it is impossible,
.ef course, to say how he proposes to meet
the new point which has been raised.

vesuvius Officials Have Not Heard Of Houses
for the Colored Men.
A story was afoat in Sharpsburg yester-
day to the effect that Moorhead, Brothers &
Co. had concluded to spend SIC, 600 in the
erection of new houses for the benefit of the
colored men now employed in the Vesuvius
Iron Works. A call was made at the Office
of the company, where officials of the con-
Germ said that they had never heard of any
such project being on foot Mr.. Moor
head is at Cresson Springs and will not be
back for day or two. The officials spoken
to said that all departments of the
mill will be- started up tomorrow
on full time and double turn. The
firm now claims a complete victory.
One of the leading colored men who came
here to take the places of the strikers is
quoted as saying: eff Mr. Moorhead had
20 mills along this river he would have no
trouble in filing all with colored men. We
were ready to come month sooner, and had
about abandoned all hope of coming
at all, when L was told to come on with Is
men. The reason of the delay was that Mr..
Moorhead wanted to give all of his old men
the first chance to go to work at their old
Jobs The Solar Mill of William Clark &
Co. was to have been started up over a
month ago, but Mr.. Clark promised Mr..
Moorhead that he would wait and not start
until week or two after the Vesuvius was
started up. Now Mr.. Clark will start up
the pudding department of "a furnaces
in his mill next Tuesday. We like
to work here. ALI those who have
families will move here as soon as possible
GA few days ago met George A. Chalfant,
of the mill, of Spang, Chalfant & Co., 6n
street car am satisfied that Mr.. Chalfant
will have colored men in his mill before the
end of another month. If such a move be
made, it will be nothing new to the men,
who are looking for it to come, at least next
year when it is said the firm will most like

chorus and solo singers. j. Edgar Owens,
under whose personal supervision the oper-
eta is produced, says he never drilled a
body of children more apt in learning the
marches and intricate movements apper-
tanning to the play.

Can't Keep His Daughter at Home.

Lydia Bowden, of Monongahela City, aged
16 years, was arrested by Captain Stewart
last night and locked up in the Twenty
eighth ward station. She was arrested at
the request of her father, who says she is in
the habit of running away from home. A
month ago she ran away, but was picked up
by the police in Pittsburg and sent home.
Yesterday she left home again and came to
this city on a freight train. Her father
telegraphed to the police of Pittsburg to
arrest her, and Captain Stewart found her
on the street and arrested her last night.
She will be held to await the arrival of her
father, who was notified of her arrest. The
family of the girl. who is rather good-look-
ing, are respectable people, but she is stated
to be incorrigiple.

A SUBSTITUTE FOB NATURAL GAS
Being Adopted at Several Glass Works In OF
Near Pittsburg.

Being Adopted at Several Glass Works In or
Near Pittsburg.
Glass manufacturers have been bewailiDg
of natural gas more loudly, perhaps, than
any other people, as the advantages Of gas
over coal as heat producer probably had q
greater influence on the glass business
than on any other. But necessity,
the mother of invention, has brought
forth a substitute that will not only take
the place of natural gas as to effectiveness
and general results, but will greatly lessen
the cost of production. 1t has been known
for some time that secret experiments and
tests of some kind were being conducted at
the flint glass works of Bryce & Higbee, at
Homestead. 1t was learned yesterday that
M. L. Murphy, the furnace builder, had
perfected o glass furnace in which gas pro-
duced from coal is consumed, and the volume
and steadiness of heat maintained is
equal that secured by the use of natural
gas. The furnace consists of deep well or
eye, having on either side two or more pro-
ducers connected with central eye by
channels, the construction of which impart
to the gas which is admitted through them
spiral or swirling motion as it ascends
toward the top of the eye, Some distance
below the top of the eye the gas comes in
contact with heated air admitted through
openings on the side walls of the producer
and heated by the waste heat of the same.
The temperature at this point is about
1900
Mr.. Higbee was asked yesterday what the
result of the tests had been. He stated that
they were very satisfactory and that his
firm would adopt this process throughout its
entire plant. He said it was also being in
troduced at the works of Richard Hartley, of
Tarentum, and the Braddock Glass Company.
The test was made on a 13-pot furnace; the
cost for operating this, with natural gas, at
the rate of $40 a pot month, would be 1910
per month, while the cost by the new pro-
cess, allowing 8 cents a bushel for coal, was
found to be little less than $500 month
saving of $500 month on a 13-pot fur
mace. This" said Mr.. Higbee, "is GER
tainly big thing" The patent which Mr.
Murphy has applied for through his attor-
ney, j. H. Roney, has been approved.
