The question of the alteration of the mu-
steal pitch of pianos is one which is of great
interest to musicians, indicating as it does,
a possible and very probable material
change. A London letter says: The
London and musical world is now occupied
with the consideration of a subject that has
often before been prominently brought to
its notice. The report of the decision of
New York piano manufacturers to adopt
the normal diapason has reopened the dis
cussion of the much-debated question of
musical pitch. Some of the English piano
manufacturers consider that by like action
they will iniure their trade with America
to the advantage of continental manufact-
urers using French pitch, but theieaGing
piano-makers of Great Britain are appar-
entity Indifferent on the subject.
A canvass which has been made of the
opinions of the leading musical artists now
in London on the question of pitch shows
that large majority of them are in favor
of the use of the lower pitch.

way Conductors and Brotherhood of Rail
way Trainmen are holding three meetings a
day. and will continue to do so until
Wednesday, when the grand chief and the
grand master of the two organizations will
arrive for the purpose of settling the diff
culties The men are demanding of the
Kansas City, Fort Scott and Memphis road
an increase of wages and an adjustment of
alleged inequalities as compared with other
roads.
Superintendent Pagan of the road says
the demands of the men are unjust and
that they will be resisted to the last. The
officials of the road are as firm as the men
and unless there can be some compromise
there is sure to be a strike when the chiefs
arrive Superintendent Pagan says the de-
mands will be refused in toto, and in this
he Is borne out by the other officials. There
are between three and four hundred con-
ductors and brakemen On the roaC, and
they are all interested in the outcome of the
trouble. They claim that the cause of the
grievance has existed for long time and
they have borne it as long as they can with
out making protest.

Quarreling Over 1t.

Sioux CITY, Iowa, Nov. 16.-An interest
ing suit was commenced in the district
court Saturday, involving the disposition of
property valued at $l60,000 the estate of
Ed COPYRIGHT, a gambler. who was for
many years familiar to all the sporting fra
ternity. Last spring he died suddenly,
though after many years of illness. His
widow soon thereafter placed on file deed
to the property, which had been made five
years before. Only short time later the
widow married Ovens another gambler,
who had long been the partner of the de-
ceased COPYRIGHT, and since then Owens
las handled the fortune, which was almost
wholly the result of success at gaming
tables Now the sisters of COPYRIGHT have
commenced suit to annul the deed, claiming
that it was obtained by undue influence and
at a time when COPYRIGHT was too feeble
to be responsible.

Special to the Gazette.
SAN ANTONIO, TEX, Nov. 16.-The den
liens in the Lapara settlement of Bee
county are much alarmed by the repeated
incursion of huge Mexican lion. The ami
NAL appeared about week ago. Its first
victim was two-year-old steer,
which it killed with single blow
of It's paw and dragged quarter Of a mile,
until stopped by barbed-wire fence. The
ground where the carcass was found
showed evidences of the desperate attempt
of the lion to carry his prey over the OBJ
struction. He was compelled to give it up.
He lost part Of his skin on
the prongs Of the wire. Since
then he has killed three horses
and has twice invaded the settlement. The
animal is supposed to have come from the
tangled brakes of the Nueces river bottom
lands. He is what the Mexicans call a mad
lon.'' in that he is old and very ferocious,
and would not hesitate to attack human
being. A regular hunt will begin for him
during the week. Fifty men will join in it,

railroads in reference to rates charged and
rebates granted were present. but only one
OF them was subjected to the squeezing
process to obtain information. The inquiry
did not go very deep. The Counselman
case, now pending in the supreme court,
served as a guard when District Attorney
Milchrist went too far. A single witness
was Intercepted for about an hour, and
answered many questions to the salts
faction of the jury. The investigation is to
be extended to other roads, and this morn
ing the grand jury subp9naed J. B. Loucey,

To.night,s Council Meeting.

While up to 6 p. m. yesterday there was
nothing of Importance for action flied with
Secretary Burns, it is fact that to-night's
meeting will be the most interesting Of any
held for some time. The bond, bridge and,
perhaps, the water-works questions are to
come up, and if the members get down to
business, action will be taken on these
questions. Another important question is
the report Of the police committee, whether
or not the present force is to De increased to
the former number or let it stand in its
present inadequate condition. 1t is hardly
probable any definite action will be taken
on the water-works question, but the mat
ter will no doubt be discussed. There is a
hard fight on over the awarding Of the
