Inhabitants built saw mills, shingle
factories and established lumber Yards. In
this business with immense timber tracks at
their backs, the producers reigned supreme.
The town now has 2,5o0 inhabitants, where
three years ago there wasn't a house.
"The time Is coming. however" continued
Mr.. Hainsworth, "when Washington will be
the greatest iron and steel center in the
world. The state abounds in gold, silver,
iron, lead and coal. Its mineral wealth is
wonderful, and all it lacks is development.
The iron men will thrive out there under
free trade or protection. They have the
ocean near them. and can compete with
England on foreign rates, and toward the
East are the continental railroads. I
do not regret that l went West. The

PASSES FOR A cONsUMPTIvE COUGH.

How an Old Timer Worked tho Depart
ment of Charities.
George W. Davis is a Western cowboy
with a consumptive cough, in which the
rattle of the hearse is plainly heard. He ap-
peared at the Department of Charities
yesterday and told story that would have
moved q policeman to tears. He has been in
the far West and had worked his way East
on cattle trains. Then he became much
worse. and did not know whether he would
live to get home. Here ne threw in several
hacking coughs that brought the result and
he was given an order for q ticket toNewark.
With profuse thanks tor his benefactors he
went out The people in Chief Elliot's office
thought he was safe on his way to ohio when
he suddenly turned up with a jag of gigantic
proportions. He decided he only wanted to
go to Canton, o.. and as the fare was less the
change was made and considered cheap
riddance.

and Gets Him.
John Donnelly, a drygoods merchant,
living on Plymouth street, Duquesne
Heights, was arrested by Agent O'Brien, of
the Humane Society, and Officer Dawson
last night and lodged in the Thirty sixth
ward station. The arrest was the result of
an attempted investigation made by Agent
0'Brien into charges made against Donneily
of abusing his wifo. Mrs. Donnelly is very
i'll with diphtheria and was being attended
by DR.. McGrew. Last evening the doctor
reported to Agent O'Brien that Donnelly
VAS drunk and abusing and threatening his
vile who was dangerously ill.
Agent O'Brien went to Donnelly's house
to investigate the matter. but he had no
sooner stated his errand than Donnelly as
saulted him. The two rolled out of the room
and Agent OBrien's hat was smashed and
his collar torn off before the two got out of
the house. When they did Oficer Dawson,
who was near by. went to o Brien's assistance
and Donnelly was secured and taken to the
Tnirty-si1th ward station. He was locked
up on a charge of disordcrly conduct and
O'Brien stated he would make an informa-
tion against him to-day. The affair gave
rise to rumor of q murder, but it had no
further foundation.

KAUFMANNs GET THE LEASE
The Fifth Avenue Methodist Episcopal
Church to Be Removed.

The Fifth Avenue NJ. E. congregation met
last evening and decided to lease the ground
upon which the church stands to Kaufman
Bros The vote was 81 to 10 in favor of leas-
ing. The terms OF the lease are $4,000 for
the first Is years and $4,000 for the last ten
years. At the end of 20 years the building Is
to go back to the congregation. The Du1ld-
ing is not to cost less than $4,000. The
Kaufnanns are to pay all taxes and ex-
penses on the property while they hold 1t.
The meeting was largely attended. many
church being present. C. L. Magee was
among the number, and his knowledge CT
conducting an election came III very con-
veniently.
The congregation will try to get the use OF
the Second U. P. Church, Sixth avenue. until
a building can be erected. 1t is probable
the church will adopt the plan OF the Christ
congregation and build two churches. The
membership is SO large and scattered that it
cannot be centralized.

F. E. Randall, General Agent of the De-
troit and Cleveland Navigation Company,
went to Boston last evening. Mr.. Randall
says that Pittsburg is the greatest excursion
city in the country. He never worries about
the business here. The iron mills and glass

and August, and the exodus to the lakes
begins about July l, and keeps up until the
end of August. He has been around seeing
some OF the fishing club men, and they are
as anxious as ever for the camping season to
come. Were it not for these vacation
breathing spells in the summer time, lie
wouldn't be worth living.

NEWS OF THE WORLD OF LABOR

To-day the strike committee of the Build.
ers' Exchange and the committee from the
Union Bricklayers will have another
conference. It is not at all proba-
BILE that the strike will be settled.
Yesterday the strikers committee had q
meeting. The whole ground was gone over
1t was decided to vest the committee with
the entire power Of settling the difficulty,
and the union gave the committee its ulti-
matum.
The Master Bricklayers also held meet
ing yesterday. 1t, too, decided to give the
committee which is to 60 into the confer
ence full power to act Heretofore the
committee has been directed in its actions
by the master brlcklayers. It was found
that the matter would never be settled if
the power was not centralized.
Insist Upon 81 Basis.
Last night it was learned from the strikers
that they did not expect the conference
to-day would result in settlement. They
have positive proof that three out of
the five members on the committee
from the Master Bricklayers have
decided on the course they
will follow in the conference. 1t is said they
have so!e'In!y Iiedced themselves to settle
on no other but a 81 basis. This will again
block settlement, as it is not at all probable
the strikers will give in. They want 81 So
The strikers are SO much impressed with
the opinion that the men who compose the
opposition's committee are biased that they
will ask for another plan of bringing about
the end of the strike. They think the COM
mittee is carrying back false reports to the
Builders Exchange. and if the conference
to-day does not settle the trouble, the Ex-
change will be asked to listen to q repre-
sen tative from the strikers. 1t is thought
that If the whole membership of the ex-
change is given a chance to hear the griev-
ances of the bricklayers, q settlement can be
made.
Meeting of the Builders' Exchange.
Yesterday afternoon the Builders E1-
change held its largest meeting since last
summer. The meeting was called to decide
on whether n change should be made in the
bylaws. Some of the members desired to
add an amendment governing the letting
compulsory on the part of all members to
deal with members entirely. This was
thought unwise by many of the members
and the matter was laid on the table
The amendment was discussed for several
hours, and all through the discussion it was
very lively. Although it was reported that
the amendment would have a clause bridg-
ing over labor trouble, such was not the case,
and the cause of labor did not figure in the
least particular in the discussion yesterday.

CAUSE OF THE DELAY.
The Library Commission Waited for the
Councils Committee to BE Appointed.

James B. Scott of the Carnegie Library
Commission, will call a meeting this week,
now that the CounciImanic committees
have been appointed. He said the meeting
could have been held sometime ago, but the
terms of the commissioners from Councils
expired last week, and it wouldn't have
been courteous to do so until the new COM
mittees were made up. The plans for the
building have been enlarged from six
teenth to an eighth scale, and this will give
the members of the commission better
chance to study them. The report that
