PITTsBURG GAS, COAL AND COKE co.
Outlook for This Company in the West
Virginia Coal Fields.

At this particular time, when the ques-
tion of gas coal is so important, it is oppor-
tune to call attention to the capabilities of
the company whose name heads this article.
Recently incorporated under the laws Of
West Virginia, with a capital stock Of $50, =
600, thev control 10, 600 acres of coal land in
the Fairmont coal fields, Marion county,
W. Va, on the main line of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad. Facilities of water
transportation already exist, and the con-
struction of a projected railroad line, only
80 miles in length, connecting at Fair
chance, Pa, will open up an outlet via the
great Pennsylvania Railroad lines.
The principal vein of coal worked by
this company is a continuation of the
Connellsville vein, the coke from which is
world renowned. This coal possesses highly
volatile properties, thereby insuring its
value as producer of gas. The small
amount of phosphorus in coke made from it
renders it eminently suitable for use in the
Bessemer process of steel making.
The coal contained in this company's
lands is almost limitleSs in amount. a con-
servatiye estimate placing it at so, OOO 600
tons A large trade has already been
established in Chicago for this coke and
coal, with bright prospects for extension of
the trade in other directions.
The attention OF investors is called to the
inducements offered by this company
The capital stock of S25O,0OO is divided into
81, 600 shares of S. each, of which 1000
shares are offered for subscription, on the
following terms: 81 per share on applica-
tion, 81 per share in 80, so, 90 and 120 days.
For further information apply to Mr. w.
E. Ross, Treasurer, 125 Sandusky street,
Allegheny, who will furnish maps, pros
pectus, etc; or he may be seen at the e1-
hibit at east end of Mechanical Hall, where
is displayed the largest piece of coal ever
mined. Its measurements are S1514 feet,
and its weight l., 900 pounds.

The BindIey Hardware Company.

No prettier idea could have been imagined
for showing the working model of the "laEn
mower" than is found at this exhibit on
main floor, where, upon a simulated lawn,

iature "lawn mower" which has created SO
much comment. This exhibit is delightful
in every respect; utility, elegance and
beauty are combined with rare success. 1t
is pleasure to watch the revolving sample
boards, each filled with specimens of small
hardware The same variety in arrange
ment is observable in the cases; in them arc
found Enclosed in plush cases) beautiful

Taylor & Dean, ao1-s-5 Market Street.

The questions of fire escapes, iron shut.
tiers, iron doors, and iron staircases are agi-
tating the public to-day, now that the sea
son has arrived when fires are most liable
to occur The beautiful brass and iron
grill work, for which Taylor & Dean have
received SO many orders, seems also to be
prominently before the public, and when
you consider the other heavy iron manufact-
ures of this firm there seems to be no ques-
tion of time about them. for they are
always in demand. The wire and lighter
iron exhibit has won golden opinions at the
Exposition,

scooPED THE CASH IN A SACK.
A Daring Daylight Bank Robbery in Walli
walla by Armed Men.


LA GRANDE, Oct. 9.-News has just
reached here of a daring robbery perpe-
trated upon the National Bank of Enter
prise in Walls Wall county Wednesday
afternoon. Cashier Holmes was in the bank
alone when man entered and asked how
much money John Smith, of Portland, had
on deposit. Upon the cashier saying that
no such man had any deposit the visitor
drew pistol, and, covering the cashier,
said: ''You are a liar AT this juncture
two confederates came up on horseback, one
of them sitting on his horse with pistol in
each hand and warning the people back,
while the other entered the bank and
poured into q sack all the money on the
counter-about So, 500.
The three men then escaped to the mount
aims. A posse is now in pursuit. but as the
country is sparsely settled their capture is
doubtful.

THE EVIDENCE HELD BACK.

This evidence, however, was never printed
on account Of no appropriation, and the
public did not know the startling facts it
contained until THE DISHATCH gained ac-
cess to them, and pushed the investigation
still farther. However. the State Commits
sion made in general terms a report to the
Governor, recommending the Legislature of
last winter to adopt a new law which they
submitted
Through the haphazard policy of the last
Legislature this new act, although printed
and placed on the calendar, was lost sight
Of 1t served a good purpose, however, in
forming 4 good basis on which to formulate
another law to be presented the next Legis-

PHGBE COUZINS BEATEN.
Decision by Judge Blodgett UNFOLDING Her Dis.
missal by Lady Managers of the Worlds Fair.

CHICAGO. July 9.-Judge Blodgett decided
the Phoebe Conzins case this morning by
rendering a sweeping decision against the
ex-sccretary OF the board of lady managers
of the worlds fair. The court held in short
that Miss Couzins is out of Office and out
for good. and cannot be put back. The
case was decided on the exceptions made
by Miss Couzins to the answer filed to her
bill for an injunction to restrain the de-
PENDANTS from Ousting her from office. The
court held that the board of lady manager
was created by the National Commission,
and received its power from that body.
These powers extended to the executive
committee of the board of lady managers,
and it had full power to act. Inasmuch as
Congress had not provided for q continuous
session of the board Of lady MANAGERS, it
was necessary to delegate its powers to
the committee. and this committee, the
court held. was. in fact, the board itself.
The court. therefore. denied the injunction.
Miss Couzins was not in the courtroom to
listen to her defeat.

2 WOMEN CITIZENS?
Suffrage Case from Washington State to Be De.
cided in the United States Supreme Court.

OLYMPIA, Wash. July 9.-The case of
Nevada NJ. BlOomer VS.. John Todd and
others. in which the Territorial Supreme
Court three years ago decided adversely to
woman's right of suffrage and Ofice-hold-
ing, will be called in the Supreme Court of
the United States for hearing the coming
October term. The points raised by Mr..
Austin, attorney for Nevada n. Bloomer.
are: First. that the Bioomer case is a col
lusive one between the original plaintiff
and defendants. and a fraud upon the
court from its inception ana q fraud upon
all friends of equal suffrage in the State;
second, that the Supreme Court of Wash
ington Territory was erroneous in two re-
spects. to-wit: that the statute of the Ter
ritory comforting suffrage was constitu-
tlonal, and that women are citizens. Mr..
Austin is very sanguine of success, and
says that II the court sustains his first
point 1t will reverse the decision and dis
miss the case OH the spot: If it s~ustains the
second point ~ Will reverse the Judgment
OF the court below and send the case to the
State court for u new trial. In either
event. as above stated, u reversal would be
in effect deciding that women were legal
voters at the election held 10 select dele
gates to the constitution convention.
Their disfranchIsemept at that time would
then, in n proper proceeding. set aside the
Constitution. The effect of a reversal of
the Judgment in tins case would be far
reaching, and would nnquestionably have
q greater political effect throughout the
Union than the most ardent woman suf-
fragist has yet dreamed.

WILL LESSEN THE HOURS OF LABOR.
Propositions that Will Come Before the Glass
Bottle Blowers Convention.

PITTSBURG, Pa, July a.-The glass bot
tle followers of the United States aud An
ada have in contemplation certain changes
in rune and demands that will create .
revolution in the trade. The fifteenth al
nual convention of the National Trade AS
sembly, No. 13S. Knights of Labor. compris-
ing the glass bottie-blowers of the United
States and Canada. will meet ut st. Louis
ON the 18th.
The American Manufacturer will say to-
morrow that the bottle-workers are dis
posed to lessen the hours of labor. At the
coming convention the old rule will be
done away with in the matter of making
but half q day on Saturday. Tank furnaces
now operated up until midnight on Satur-
day will cease ct 5 p. NJ. A%propoeition Will
come from California to limit all blowers
to $50 per week. Another important meas
ure will be discussed. That of admitting
foreign blowers into the organization
which virtually means that no foreigners
shall be employed where there are Ameri-
can workme In this the bottle-wOrkers
differ from the window men. as the latter
encourage that element in their unions
The Western bottle men will offer o
change in the price-list which will advance
the first item on the ine-bOttle schedule
from Sis TO Sl.70 per gross. This year the
bottle-workers will push the claims made
last year for the first time. One of these is
that the apprentice must claim at least
one half the regular rate of pay. 1t is pro-
posed also to make uniform the time which
apprentices shall serve. The proposed
changes do not end here. This bottle
workers will make q strong fight to cut
loose from the Knights of Labor and enter
the American Federation of Labor combi-
nation with the American Flint glass
workers.
The Western Flint-bOttls Manufacturers
Association met here to-day ana invested
the wage committee with the full power to
act in the conference with the wage COM
mittee of the American Flint-Rlass- workers.
The members of the latter and those of the
Western Association will meet at the call
of the presidents of each organization. It
is now thought this conference will take
place prior to August, but this 10 not
definitely settled. The committee of the
American Flint-glass-worker has formu-
lated a scale. but il will not be presented
finally to the manufacturers until fret
acted upon at the Steubenville convention.
