THE BOB-TAIL LOSES.

MiIlvals Councils Hold Another Stormy
Points-A Nicely worded Petition Does
the Work.
The Pittsburg, Allegheny and Man
chester gained several points on the "Bob-
tail' last night in the Millvale street car
fight. 1t was the regular meeting night of
Council and the greater portion of the
voting population of Millvale was in
attendance, nearly all of them being ardent
supporters of the Pittsburg, Allegheny and
Manchester.
Council wrestled with routine bust
ness for two hours, and the audience
commenced to think the ordinance was going
by the boards. At this period Councilman
Wallace offered resolution to reconsider
the ordinance. 1t was quickly seconded by
Councilman Scott Soon there was clamor
among the Councilmen. Each man
had a grievance and he was not slow in stat
ing il. In one instance gentleman was
called a prevaricator. After all the COun-
cilmen had three or four turns in support
ing or denouncing the measure, the vote was
called for and resulted as follows: For
Scott, Wallace and Burgess Reed. Against
-HerroE, Dickey, Lane and Boreland.
Councilman Wallace then came to the
front with little play of diplomacy that
worked. The principal reason the opposers
of the ordinance gave was that the Pitts
burg, Allegheny and Manchester had not
gotten the right of way yet from its pres
ent terminus on East Ohio street to the AL
legheny City limits. Mr.. Wallace thought
it proper that the Burgess and Council
should petition Allegheny Councils to grant
the company right of way as soon as pos
sible. His resolution went through. receiv-
ing the unanimous Endorsement of Councils.

Mayor Kennedy Will Send Message to

pose the division of wards.
List night the Mayor said: 81 intend to
go slow at first until I get the routine of the
city government and then I shall expect to
exercise all the powers vested in the office.
The law plainly says the Mayor shall have
supervision over all the departments of the
city government, and intend to follow out
that idea. have not decided just what 1

there is school debt, for it would cause

such thing before. Chief Murphy and

The inaugural service was one of the
briefest ever known in the city's history.
1t only took about ten minutes to make the
change Councils met in joint session in

He Wants the Philadelphia Company's
Treasurer to File Heavy Bonds-A
Lesson in Finance-Annual Meeting OF
the Stockholders.
Stakeholder Hardy, OF the Philadelphia
Gas Company, created a sensation at the an
nual meeting of the stockholders of the COM
pany herd in the Westinghouse building at
noon yesterday. Mr.. Hardy is prone to ask
questions, and yesterday overstepped the
mark little by asking that the treasurer of
the company be placed under heavy bonds
to prevent a recurrence of the Shields de-
falcation. Mr. Robert Pitcairn became
somewhat excited at the unkind cut of
Stakeholder Hardy, as the treasurer
of the company, and made some
very caustic remarks, in which he was as
sisted by President George Westinghouse.
Jr Mr.. Hardy also thought it would be
better to fix the values of stock by daily
quotations of their worth as fixed by mar
kets, but Mr.. Westinghouse kindly gave
Mr. Hardy an early lesson in financiering
bv telling MIN the intrinsic value of stock
was changed in no manner by the daily
quotations Then Mr.. Hardy asked q few
more questions before he subsided.
The reading of the annual statement was
lished in the local papers President West
inghouse submitted an additional report,
showing the amount received for domestic
gas by the Philadelphia Company from
April 1, 1885, to April 1, 1892. From
April 1, 1885, to April l, 1888, the price of
gas was fixed by contract, but after 1888 was
sold bv meter measure. From April 2, SO,
to April 1, sc, the amount received by the
company was S57, ,S11: April 1, 'S6. to April
1, 'S7, S222, 527; April 1, 'S8, $3.50, ,969;
April l, 'S9, S592, o3O; April /, 80, s579,353;
April l, 81, S762, ,S1S; April l, 49, SS71, ,227.
Mr. Westinghouse also read statement of
the condition of the company to date, as
follows:
Regular bonds, $3.50, 900; collateral bonds,
S1O7, 600; notes to National Tube Works,
SOB, 900; April bills payable, $50, OO0 Total,

ceivable, 5000, 900; April accounts, $500, ,0O0
Total, $780, 900.
One OF the gentlemen present asked for
information concerning the item of $500, 900
loaned the President of the company, as
shown bv the annual statement Mr.. West
inghouse replied: "That amount was loaned
me, not as President of the company, but
as an individual 1 have paid back over
100000 of the loan and the balance will be
wiped out as rapidly as possible"

MISTAKEN FOR AN ANARCHIST
Travelling Miner Finds Himself in Trouble
for Carrying a Trunk Full of Powder.

A Travelling Miner Finds Himself in Trouble
for Carrying Trunk Full of Powder.
Visions of anarchistic, socialistic and
nihilistic vengeance fioated before the
minds eyes Of the officials at the Union
depot last evening at discovering trunk
half full of rock powder in the baggage of a
passenger The trunk, an ordinary looking
piece of baggage, was being removed from a
baggage car on a west-bound train when a
quantity of powder began pouring out of a
small hole in the trunk. The attention of
other officers was called and when the
owner of the baggage callen he was prompt
ly arrested.
The man is young Russian named John
Mill. His keys and trunks were taken
from him at Central station, together with
those of another man and two women who
composed the party, and all were searched.
A bag of about 20 pounds of the powder
was found in Mills trunk, but none in the
others The depot officials preferred a
charge against him of carrying explosives
Mill is a coal miner and left his home near
Harrisburg yesterday to go to mine near
Brownsville. His wife and two children
accompanied him, together with another
man and his family. They could speak
but little English, but made plain their
aston1shment at Mills arrest They all left
for Brownsville on a late train.

AVERY WAS LEFT OUT.

Allegheny Institute Received Mono Of tfhe
Endowment Fund-Colored Men Must
Have Money to Secure Equality With
the whites-Not Ready to Open.
The colored ministers of Allegheny
county held another meeting at the Avery
Church. Allegheny, last night to take fur
ther action on the reopening of the ALLIE
gheny Institute for the colored race. The
main facts brought out were that Rev.
Charles Avery in his will left no endow-
ment for the institution. Before his death,
however, he made permanent endowment of
800 shares of the Monongahela Navigation
Company's stock. The stock is valued at
SOS, 900, but it was said at the meeting that
Trustee Gordon had declared the dividends
on it only amounted to about $500 a year.
Charles Avery had left a fund of $685.
2S5 81 to be devoted to the education of the
African race 1t was left for the executors
to distribute, but none of it was given to
the Avery Mission. The Western Uni
versity was given s25, 900. and that was the
only local institution that got any of it.
Rev. DIR. Laws made an eloquent appeal
for the reopening of the institute, and de-
clared the only reason the institution did
not get any of the endowment money was
"Here we have building, grounds and ap-
paratus worth $500, 900 already given to us.
The worms are eating the books and
the tools are rusting. We have an
endowment of S6S,000, and yet we do
nothing. We were overlooked because
there was too much folding of arms,
too much sleep, too much trying to
be like white folks and too much depend
ence on the whites. The executors are not
to blame. 1t is because the negroes here
are worthless. Why, the negroes of Ken
lucky, State too tough for anything but
mules, are more active than those here.
There is not enough work. You talk of
race equality. The only thing that will
bring it is Christianity and money, and the
Christianity does not put you there unless
you have the money. The only way to get
it is in trade, and we must have school to
fit our people for that work. There is more
discrimination in the Christian Church than
in the meeting of al Ingersol"
Mr.. Henderson opposed the opening be-
cause he did not believe the school had
money enough to back it and favored COM
petitive examinations among the churches
and then use the income from the endow-
ment fund to send the winners to some col
lege and give them thorough education.
He held that the opening of the college
would be step back, for with the funds at
hand they could not equal the public schools
of the city.
1t was then decided to lay the matter
over until they could find just how much
financial backing the college would have.

INVESTIGATING THE HOSE,

about the newspaper criticism of their work

part, says they did good work and are un-
justly blamed. He says the alarm was not

fierce one and hard to manage under any
circumstances The Chief thinks the fire.
