A GREAT SPEECH.

Colonel Bayne Compliments Dalzen In His
Defense of Reiter-Republicans Injured
by Failing to Pass the Election Bill
Against Free Coinage.
Colouel Thomas NJ. Bayne returned from
Washington yesterday morning and put UP
at the Schlosser. He will remain until
alter the election. The Colonel said that
Dalzell made a great speech in defense of
Reiter and that Cabot Lodges reply was
weak in comparison. MIR. Dalzell had all the
facts and law on his side. and the Congressman
who followed his argument were much i'm
pressed with his speech.
Colonel Bayne says the Republican party
has received a backset in the failure to pass the
election bill. The people have been prejudiced
against it through misrepresentation, and it was
dubbed the force measure to throw obloQuy on
its object. As the bill stands it was intended
to cover the election of Congressman and In
close States like West Virginia. Maryland.
Virginia and North Carolina, where the Re
publicans have been getting the worst of it. the
law was intended to show the actual vote of
both parties, against which nobody could OBJ
ject. Under existing laws, Colonel Bayne says,
the Republicans must have overwhelming ma
jorities before they can carry them.
He regards the free coinage issue as seri-
ous question, but if the bill should pass Presi-
dent Harrison would veto it. The Colonel
does not think free coinage will come to pass
under this administration. If Cleveland should
happep to be reelected in 1892 though he was
opposed to tree coinage four years ago. Mr..
Bayne believes he is politician enough 10
throw the responsibility for the measure on the
representatives of the people. and then sign
the bill With the present attitude of the
Farmers Alliance and the division in the party
over the silver question. Colonel Bayne admits
that the Republican outlook is a little shaky,
but he has faith that there will be a change by
the Time the next Presidential canvass is made.

MORE BIG BILLS.

Consumers in All Parts of the Two Cities
Complaining of the Cost of the Fuel
Alleghenians Waiting Anxiously for
Their Bills-some Quick Jumps.
The residents of Allegheny, at least the
greater portion of them, have not received
their gas bills for the past month or quarter.
The heating company allows its patrons to
pay monthly Or every three months, as they
prefer, and most of them prefer the longer
term. The office yesterday was not apparently
doing a large business, the notices having not
yet cached the victims.
Councilman Frank Curry lives and keeps a
tobacco store on Ohio street near West Dia-
mopd He has had q meter in since last fall
A member of the family said that 1t was a
meter that would register whether or not gas
was passing through. 1t only needed little
wind. 1t was said that in order just to see
what sort of a meter it was, the valves were
opened, and while there was no gas. but good
pressure of wind, the machine Kept up its
clicking. showing that something was being
registered. The number of fires had been
reduced, but there was little reduction In the
amounts of the Uills. The bill for the past
quarter had not yet been received.
In the heating companyS ofhce yesterday
there was a lady who thought she had good
ground for complaint. She had received a bill
for the past month, and the figures corre-
sponded exactly with those of the previous
month. The meterman had simply copied the
figures upon the dial, he not being aware of
the fact that the meter was out of order and
would not register at all. The lady also re-
marked that she had not used anything like
the quantity of gas that sne had the previous
month, and therefore objected to paying for
that which the meter had nos registered. A
man was sent to investigate the meter.
Inspector McKelvey. of the Southside, stated
that on q very cold day all the fires were burn
ing He thought he would look at his meter
but was surprised co find that the hands were
not moving. A short time: after that he ex-
amined the meter when all the hres were
turned Off and the hands were going round
Just the same a. if the gas was going through.
He has never solved the problem.
A Webster street consumer-My bill FOR last
month was SS So and as only burn gas in one

SLASHED HER THROAT.

Mrs. Mollie Moore, of Allegheny, Tries to
Kill Hersen-In Bed With Her Little
Boy She Makes Desperate Attempt
Upon Her Life.
Mrs. Mollie Moore, the wife of Joseph
Moore, the well-known saloon keeper at No.
"a West Diamond street, Allegheny, made
desperate attempt last night to end her
life. She cut two great gashes on either side
of her throat with butcher knife, but she
may recover though the physicians at the
Allegheny General Hospital say that her
chance is only fighting one.
Joseph Moore had closed his saloon some
days ago, as he wished to transfer his license.
The family occupied the upper stories. They
have I'm their employ Ida Schneider, a girl
about IA years old. Mrs. Moore went to her
bedroom about o'clock, taking with her her
little boy. whose age is 8. Ida went into the
room shortly after her mistress had retired,
and the latter asked her to bring to the room
the butcher knife. telling the girl where she
would find it. Ida. who is bright child. said
she would not do it. and left the room. Later
between her sobs she said that Mrs. Moore had
remarked in the afternoon in a dreary sort of
way that she would kill herself. That was the
reason she gave for refusing to take the knife
to her.
1t was probably half an hour later when Ida
heard the little boy crying in his mothers
room. She opened the door, and she saw Mrs
Moore sitting upright in bed with the blood
gushing from her throat. and the child, whose
night dress was saturated, making his way to
the floor. Ida screamed. and her cries brought
George Roberts. Mr.. Moores brother, who
happened to be within a few feet of the room
He made jump for his sister, and took the
knife which she still retained, from her hands.
Word was quickly sent TO the Mayors office,
and Detectives Aiken, Glenn and Steele ran
over there in few minutes, one of them
going at once for DR.. Gerker.
EThe woman had made two frightful gashes
Qhnnt
inches on the right side of the neck, while on
the left side was a cut about two inches long.
The lugular had not been served, nor had the
windpipe. The wounds were closed and she
was taken to the hospital. In explanation of
the act IL is said that Mrs. Moore had been a
great sufferer from neuralgia. Yesterday she
complained of toothache, and procured chlori-
form to ease the pain. In the bed was found
an empty bottle containing patent medicine
for curing rheumatism. When the doctor
reached Mrs. Moore's bedside she was so vio-
lent thar it required two men to hold her. At
the hospital she was only quieted with strong
drugs.
