HARRISON ATTACKED
By Congressman W. A. Stone,
Who Is Very Indignant
Because Of the
APPOINTMENT OF MILLER.

Congressman W. A. Stone returned to
Washington last evening. He expressed
himself as very much disappointed over the
appointment Of George Miller as Collector
of Internal Revenue. In tact, the Colonel
is feeling sore, and while he continues in
his present state of mind President Harri.

good fellow and congratulate him on his
success. We made the fight and lost, and
have nothing left to do but to make the
best of it."
"Was Senator Quay interested to any
great extent in the appointment"
Quay Most Deeply Interested.
''He certainly was," tho Colonel replied,
''most deeply interested. The Office be-
longed to him. and it was taken from his
very doorstep. 1t is a Senatorial appoint
ment for Western Pennsylvania. It indi-
Gates that Senator Quay's Endorsement has
no special weight with the Administration,
and it leaves the Senator under no obliga-
tions to the President. The latter certainly
can't expect any support from the Senator
in his fight for the Presidential renomina-
tion. Another thing-the old soldiers of
Pennsylvania have nothing to thank Presi-
dent Harrison for. He has ignored them on
every occasion. do not say that he has
done it Intentionally, but it looks that
way."
Glow about the Senatorial struggle?" he
was asked.

the Colonel replied. 'It is not my fight.

plenty to do to mind my own business and
look after my affairs 1t is time enough,
anyhow, to talk about it when the Leglsla-
ture meets"
Colonel Stone said he expected to appear
shortly before the immigration Committee
in support Of his bill restricting the influx
from foreign shores. He said he had no OBJ
lection to people who were physically and
morally all right, but he is opposed to i'm
migrants who are not allowed to remain in
their own countries. There is still plenty
of room in the States for good people, and
the time has come when only respectable
candidates for citizenship are wanted. The
Colonel added that Congressman expressed
themselves favorable toward the bill, and
he thinks it will be passed

| Haven, just across the Youghiogheny river
from Connellsville, In 1850. A year later
ne came with his family to Pittsburg. He
was educated in the public schools:
At the age OF Is years he was employed
by the Pennsylvania Raj ilroad Company. He
afterward became passenger brakeman and
lie reached his majority. A couple Of years
later he was made assistant depot master,
which position he held during the disastrous
railroad riots of 1877. As boy and as o
man he has always enjoyed the happy
faculty Of making and keeping friends, and
when tine rioters were wrecking and running
the railroad property, and when all other
railroad officials had been driven from the
scene, Mr.. Miller was allowed to move
trains at his will and during the entire
trouble he was the only official allowed in
the freight yard. -
An Incident of the Riot.
He moved all the trains that left the
Pittsburg yards during the trouble and he
was conspicuous in bringing together the
strikers and the railroad officers after the
trouble was ended. He enjoyed the conf
dence of his employers and his associates
while in the railroad service and even yet
he enjoys their esteem and support.

MILLER'S APPOINTMENT.

The appointment of George W. Miller as

To Save Surrounding Property.


flames in an exceptionally brief time.
To Save Surrounding Property.
Most of the efforts of the fremen were
put forth to save the surrounding property.
This was difficult owing to the fact that q
number of tenement houses, occupied by
employees of the works, were built up close
about it. It looked for a time as though
several of them would go, and the people
moved out their goods. The flames, how
ever, were kept confined to the works.
During the fire great deal of excitement
was created by an explosion Of q quantity
house. The conclusion knocked down the
walls of the building and several people
narrowly escaped being crushed under
them. The fire burned until o'clock.
The origin of the fire is not exactly
known, though there is good reason to be-
lieve it started in the gas producer. This
was an apparatus for the manufacture of
gas to supply the plant. 1t is sup
posed that the producer was overtaxed
and the escaping fuel ignited from the pots
near it. The buildings were large brick
structures owned by George Duncan &
Sons, and had been leased to the United
States Glass Company.
Nearly Covered by Insurance.
The loss is estimated roughly at S150, 600;
the insurance at S134, 900. The latter is dis
tributed among large number Of compan-
les Among these are the Home, Sc, 600;
Northern, 81 800; Royal, 5000; American,
$4,000; Westchester, $1,000; the Fire As
sociation of Philadelphia; the Lancaster
Company, the North American Company,
the Allemannia Company, the Germania
Company and others
The fire will throw out OF employment
225 men and 80 girls who worked in the
factory. Nearly all afternoon the cars on
the Birmingham line we're blocked by sec
tions of hose across the tracks, causing con-
siderable inconvenience.
Martin Premier, superintendent of the
Monongahela Water Company, denied the
report of lack of water. He said: "There
could be no difference in the supply at first
from what it was later on. The reservoir
was full when the fire started with the
valves leading to it wide open. Not valve
was turned by any employe of the water
company. At 8 o'clock, four hours after
the engines began to throw water, only two
inches Of water had been lost in the reser-
voir.
