THAT GRlFFING WORKS FENCE.

A Gate to he Placed In 1t at Bramhall
Avenue-Good Feeling.
The controversy over the fence which
the Grifing Iron Company is erecting at
Bramhall avenue near the canal has been
settled in a manner pleasing to all par
ties. the company having consented to
place gate at Bramhall avenue, so that
the parlshioners of St. Patrick's r. Z.
hurch can take the shortest cut in going
to and from their place of worship.
1t is greatly regretted that some hot
headed persons had given the matter an
appearance of harshness which really
never belonged to it. Father Hennessy
in speaking to reporter of 1HE JERSEY
CITY NEWS said he was much panied that
this impression had been allowed to reach
the public. There never was any bad
feeling
"The Griffing Iron Company" he said,
''are the best friends Of St. Patrick's
Church and of the parishioners of the
church. a large number of the latter being
employed at the company's works. The
Grifiing Iron Company is great industry
and helps to build up the wealth of the
city and it was strictly within its rights
in putting up the fence, as it was erected
on its own property"

PITTSBURG SITUATION.
Rash Talk About Dynamite-Mc-
Cleary's Villainy--Rebuke
for Carnegie.

PITTsBURG, July 8. 1892.-A startling
rumor is being whispered about on the
south side. which, if true, shows that
the Homestead strikers ara determined
to make the events at that place
as costly as possible before they
will acknowledge defeat. The report is
that several south-slde men, who are
thoroughly informed as to the manner OF
handling dynamite effectively. have been
employed 70 act when al emergency
comes.
1t is said that the strikers will not will
not permit injury to the Carnegie mills
until they have exhausted other means of
defense. The last step will be the use
of dynamite. AS soon as an armed
force appears en- the ground, either
deputy sheriffs or militia, it is asserted
that the dynam1ters will pc prepared to
hurl bombs into the mill, and an effort
will be made to destroy he entIre plant.
M'CLEARY's vILENEss.
Evidence is accumulatlng that Sheriff
McCleary has been acting in the interest
of the Carnegies from the first.
There are documents TO prove
Wednesdays trouble were under the
direct command of the Sheriff, who was
represented by Deputy Sheriff Gray.
The arrangements for bringing the Pink
erton men to Pittsburg were made by
tine Carnegie Steel Company with
the full knowle dge of the Sheriff. He
knew every detail; he knew that The
model barges were being fitted up for
them and knew all about the weapons,
ammunition, uniforms, bedding and or
ders for subsistence, which were loaded
aboard Of them.
A MERITED REBUKE.
Many of the workingmen of Pitts
burg are already at work to express
their sentiment against Mr.. Carnegie
for his connection with the lock-
out at Homestead. If they win their
cause it means that Mr.. Carnegie will be

to be imprisoned thereafter until the

to be imprisoned thereafter until the
costs of the prosecution were paid.
The commitment fails to show what
the costs were, while the Legislature has
provided that q bill of costs must be made
out and given to the Sheriff and attached
to the commitment. This was not done,
and we contend that the commitment In
consequence was Illegal"
The Senator at length endeavored to
show that Judge Werts did not have the
power to amend the judgment of the
Court of Quarter sessions. and that the
Court could not go beyond the face of the
commitment to seek the records, and that
The Court was bound absolutely by the
commitment.
BLACK EYE.
LAS understand the rule, I" interrupted
Judge Werts, ut now applies for dis
charge because of defect in the COM
mitment. The Court is not bound by
commitments and investigate to see il
there is cause for the commitment"
The Senator contended that the Court
could not change the sentence because
the term in which the sentence was passed
had gone by. In regard to the JUDGMENT
in the Quarter Sessions, it was ''for nine
months in the Penitentiary," when.
under the statute, the convicted men
should have been sent to the 'jail at the
County Farm" but not to the ''jail at the
County Farm OF the State"
"You claim, then, there is no such
place as the County farm of the State, !"
said Judge Werts, "and you say that the
judgment was not correctly given"
''I don't know" interposed Judge DAILY,
"but l think so. 1 applied for the rec
ords, but did not get Them"
1.-THE records are always open to public
inspection" said Judge Lippincott to
Judge Werts.
Referring to the statute concerning
costs, Judge Werts remarked that in his
opinion it only related TO commit
ments to State Prison aud had no bear
ing on the question before the Court
After reading the act which specifies that
the bill of costs shall be given the Sheriff,
but does not say it shall be attached to
the commitment, the Court decided that
it was not pertinent to the case under con-
sideration and declined to consider Its
further.
The court took all the papers in the
case, however, rmarklng that if after a
careful examination of them 1t appeared
to the satisfaction of the court that the
petitioner Walsh was confined for a
criminal offense, the court would not
discharge him upon habeas corpus, but
would have the commitment corrected If
found to be incorrect.
