ART STUDY FROM NATURE,
One of PittsburG's Points of Supremacy as
Recognized Abroad.
New York Art Amateur

One of Pittsburc's Points OF Supremacy as
Recognized Abroad.
New York Art Amateur1
The strongest art school at present
though smallest in its apopintments-is the
Pittsburg Art School 1t consists of little
more than two studios, presided over BY
Mr.. John W. Beatty and Mr.. George Hetz-
ell; but the spirit of the work is SO thorough
ly right that it deserves the heartiest COM
mendation, recalling that of the New York
Art Students League in its early days Mr.
Beatty studied in the Munich Academy in
the halcyon days under Piloty, at the same
time as Frank Duveneck, William M.
Chase, j. Frank Currier, Frederick Diel-
man, Walter Shirlaw and other now we'll
known American artists. He is a strong
advocate of teaching by the constant study
of nature. He conducts the portrait and
costume class. Beginners of course work
from the cast; but as soon as possible they
are advanced to the life class.
During June the class is taken into the
Allegheny Mountains to learn landscape
painting under the most favorable condi-
tions. Criticism of the school work is given
on alternate days bv Mr.. Beatty and by Mr.
Hetzel, who studied at the Dusseldorf
Academy. This method of criticism is, if I
mistake not, followed in no other city in
the United States. In some of the Julien
schools in Paris the instructors alternate
monthly. Lectures OIL artistic anatomy are
given bv Dr. Matson, and china painting is
taught by Miss Mary H. Barnet. During
about half the year Mr.. Beatty gives weekly
talks on perspective and composition, and
he instructs in etching. But constant study
from nature is the thing insisted on above
all in the school. Everything else is sub
ordinated to it,

TO START N0N-UNION.
Spang, Chalfant & Co. Expected Mon
day to Operate Their Mill
WITHOUT THE AMALGAMATED MEN.
The Glass Workers Wrestle With Resolu.
tions and Reports.
GENERAL LABOR ITEMS OF INTEREST

Considerable discussion was caused in
Etna last evening over rumor to the effect
that Spang, Chalfant & Co. intended start
ing their pudding and finishing depart
ments with non-union workmen on Monday
next. A member of the Amalga-
mated Association, when asked about
the rumor, snid. 'T hear that
Spang, Chalfant & Co., have made all
necessary repairs about the mill and in all
probability an attempt will be made to
start the plate department in a few days.
In the firms opinion it will be an easy mat
ter to secure puddlers, but they will learn
their mistake.
"When the scale was presented to the
Manager, George A. Chalfant, he refused at
first to consider it, but finally remarked
that he would get one of the clerks
to read it when he had nothing
else to do and concluded with
asserting positively that he would not sign
the scale. He made a proposition to some
few of the workmen, individually, that the
pudding and finishing departments could
standing that they would receive the same
rate of wages as last year, until the Confer
ence Committee had made their final report.
This proposition was, of course, made be-
fore the shutdown and not accepted.
An attempt was made to interview
George A. Chalfant, the manager of the
Etna Iron Works. but that gentleman was
absent and could not be located. 1t is also
asserted that should the management not
have sufficient men to run the plate mill
they will take the crew from the Spang
Steel and Iron Company's works to operate
it. This is the same method, Manager
Chalfant was about to pursue last year, but
the difficulty was settled.
The members of the Amalgamated Asso-
citation have called a meeting for Saturday
afternoon, when a line of action will be
thoroughly discussed.

HARRITY STILL NAMED

As the Man to Lead Ex-President CIeve-
lands Third Campaign.
NEW YORK, July 13-[Speeial Nv. F.
Harrity, of Pennsylvania e1-President
Cleveland's postmaster at Philadelphia, and
at present Secretary of State under Cover
nor Pattison, has been in town for two
days He did not herald his visit,
and no trumpets have been used to
proclaim his presence. He came to
consult ex-Secretary William C. Whitney
and to ascertain Mr.. Cleveland's views con-
cerning the craftsmanship of the National
Committee. Mr.. Harritr vas informed
very plainly that Mr.. Cleveland desired
that he should take the place, and that Mr.
Whitney was in accord with the ex-Presi-
dent. In fact, Mr.. Whitney has all along
favored the selection of Mr. Harrity, and
Mr.. Whitney's word goes long way with
Mr.. Cleveland
Mr.. Harrity demurs at his selection. His
duties as a State officer might interfere, he
argued. He has also legal practice which
he does not want to abandon. But Mr..
Whitney insists that Harrity shall be the
man. Mr. Whitney made this proviso,
that he (the ex-Secretary) shall give all the
assistance in his power. In fact, Mr..
Whitney is practically to be the head of
the committee. 1t was also agreed that
George f. Parker is to be Secretary of the
committee. Mr.. Parker is the gentleman
who for four years has managed the Cleve-
land literary bureau at 81 Broadway.

A NEW FREE SILVER PLAN.

1t Is Now Proposed That All Parties in the
Interested States Choose Independent
Presidential Electors, Who Might Hold
the Balance of Power.
HELENA, MONT, July 13-The second
days session of the National Mining Con.
gress effected permanent organization BY
the election of Francis G. Newland (Nev.
President. On taking his seat Newland
made q strong silver speech, urging
the mining States to put the in
terests of silver before party interests,
formulating plan how party organization
could be preserved in each mining State
and the people still be able to use their
power to advance the free coinage of silver.
This could be done by an agreement that
the electoral votes of the mining States
should be cast for no person as President
who would not agree to permit any silver
act passed by Congress to become law.
Newland's view was that all three
national parties in the mining States should
instruct their electors to act independently
in the Electoral College in the interest of
the silver cause, rather than in the interest
OF any candidate; that in this way, whatever
party won in these States, their entire vote
could be aggregated in the Electoral
College and would probably hold the
balance of power, which was as strong
a position as that of an actual majority;
that if, meanwhile, the silver question was
settled by international agreements, such
electors could cast their votes according to
their party predictions; but, if not, could
exact as q condition of their vote
support from any candidate requiring
their vote, the understanding being
that the future action of both Houses of
Congress on the silver question should
stand without executive Interference or
veto; that the people of the country had a
right to demand that after 20 years agita-
tion and discussion the popular will, as ex-
pre- ssed by majority of both Houses Of
Congress, should not be opposed and de-
feated by the will of one man, even though
he be President
He, also, claimed that even though he
election were thrown into the House the
cause of silver would NOT necessarily be lost
if the friends OF silver would be active and
vigilant; that while it is true that the pres
ent House is Democratic and would be
likely to cast its vote for Cleveland if no
precaution we're made, yet steps would be
taken to prevent his election unless he
agreed not to use his Executive power as
heretofore to defeat silver legislation; that
most of the Democratic members of
the present House represented
Southern and Western constituencies,
which are overwhelmingly for free
coinage, that they would be candidates for
denomination and election at the . coming
election, and that pledges should be exacted
from all such candidates for reelection
that they will not in the event of the
election being thrown into the House
vote for any man for the Presidency unless
he gives assurance that the Executive power
will not be used against the popular will;
that the Bimetallic League would take this
matter in hand and organize action. New
lands speech was received with great ap-
plause

Story
WASHINGTON, July 13. - [Specia. +
Senator Calvin S. Brice has no intention of
retaining the Craftsmanship of the National
Democratic Committee during the coming
campaign. He was shown a newspaper
statement to-day to the effect that Mr.
Cleveland, in order to avoid the difficulty
which President Harrison has encountered
in selecting Chairman of the Republican
Committee, would probably insist upon the
reelection of Senator Brice.
"You may say for me-" said Senator
Brice to a DISPATCH reporter, as he
strolled through the corridors of the Ar
lington Hotel this evening, "that one CAM
paign is about as much rs 1 care to serve
through; under no circumstances would I
serve again, and have caused that fact to
be pretty we'll understood whenever the
subject has been mentioned. If am not
mistaken. early last spring I was inter-
viewed by a reporter on this same subject,
and said then that would not serve as
Chairman of the National Committee dur
ing the campaign of 1892"
"Who is likely to be selected as chairman
if you will not accept the position?"
"Nearly every member of the committee
who has spoken to me on the subject is in
favor of ex-Secretary Whitney. No other
name has been mentioned that am aware
Of He is the logical chairman, and all of
us would be delighted to have him selected.
The matter will be fully discussed and
settled in New York next week, when the
National Committee meets. We will hold
our meeting directly after the candidates
have been notified. select our executive
committee, and open up the campaign with
as little delay as possible. There will be
no lack of material from which to make up
the executive committee, and there is no
doubt in my mind that Mr.. Whitney will be
elected If he will accept"
Some of the Republicans,wboa are troubled
by the political complications likely to
grow out of the labor riots at Homestead
are charging that the Governor of Tennes-
see short time ago called out the State
troops to protect the property of Senator
Brice at place called Briceville. The
Senator says he does not own any property
at the place mentioned. The only connec-
tion he has with the town of Briceville is
that while he and Mrs. Brice were visiting
Tennessee they became interested in that
section of the State and caused to be erected
at that point a memorial hall and presented
1t to the town of Briceville.

Hazelett's restaurant, on the corner of
Water and Ferry Streets was the scene of
a cutting affray this morning at about 1:30
O'Clock, in which Henry Clark received in

the place at about that time. He was con-
siderabIy under the influence of liquor and
in good fighting mood. Clark came down
stairs
Words followed, when Howard drew a
dirk and made wicked slash at Clark, who
had cash one inch and half long cut in
his abdomen and was felled Co the street.
He was carried into the restaurant, where
his wound was given medical attention.
His wound is in dangerous place, and in
all probability will prove fatal Howard

The Word Canadian stricken From Canal
Rebate Regulations.
OTTAWA, ONT, July 13-An order in
Council has been passed amending the order
in Council of April last with reference to
the rebate on canal tolls on grain from
Lake Ontario ports passing through the St
Lawrence canals for export from Montreal
The order, as originally passed, allowed a
rebate only on shipments from Canadian"
Lake Ontario ports.
The new order simply strikes out the word
canadian" so that wheat or coarse grains
shipped from American ports on Lake On
tario passing through the St. Lawrence
canals and exported from Montreal will get
the advantage of the rebate. This has no
bearing on the trans-shipment at Ogdens-
burg of Western wheat.
