PEOPLES PARTY PLEASED.

Nine Happy Men in the Lower House Of
Congress-Mr. Watson Says the Demo-
cratic Shelving of the Silver Bill VIII
Help the Alliance to Carry States.
WASHINGTON, March 29-Perhaps the
most jubilant members in the House Just
now are the nine Peoples party Congress-
men, who rejoice in the discontinue of the
Democratic party, and proclaim that the
failure OF the Democratic House to pass the
free coinage bill means that the PEOPLES
party Will carry six or eight States in this
coming campaign. Representative Watson,
the leader of the Peoples party, tonight
said:
This action In the House on the silver bill
is the death knell Of the old Democratic
organization. Hundreds of thousands of
If financial relief could be had Democracy
as now organized would give that relief If il
had chance. With a majority of l4s In the

to do 1t. 1t was only by the help of nine
Peoples party members and II Repu bltcans
that this immense Democratic majority
escaped Waterloo. Consequently the most
conservative Democrat In the South knows
now that Democratic majorities welded
under the present organization mean
latfon is concerned.
No power on earth can now keep Georgia
from going into the electoral college with
the Peoples party delegation. confidently
believe the same is true Of several other
Southern States. What the Democrats NAV
do with the silver bill hereafter is compara-
lively untmportant They have had their
l9 outside votes to help them. They were
absolutely unable to pass such a very mild
measure of reform as Mr.. BANDS silver

capita to the circulating medium 1 have
never ceased to claim that the Alliance de-
mands, upon which the Peoples party was
founded. were true Jeffersonian PRINCIPLES.
l claim that to-day. But believe now that
the immense maj jority of the Democrats all
over the South will come to our party as the
truest opponents of the Jeffersonian princt
pie OF the rule of the people as against the
Hamilton doctrine of the rule OF money and
of the classes.
Let it never be forgotten that Mr.. Boutelle.
of Maine, Republican, asked the Tammany
Democrats to stop flibustering on the bill,
ana challenged the Democratic House to |
itself That challenge was refused, and re- |
FUSED by Democrats. In other words, a mag
nlficent Democratic majority of l4S found
itself absolutely poweress to legislate upon
a milo measure of reform to which their |

He Secures Two of the Five Delegates to the
State Convention.
CHAMBERsBURG, March 81 Special. j
The Democratic County Committee met to-
day to select date for holding the county
convention and to elect delegates to the
State Convention. The contest was the
most bitter ever waged here. Harrity had
sent r. Y. Hamsher, of the State Depart
ment, and VIM. Kennedy, of the Worlds
Fair Commission, to look after the interests
Of the administration. The lines were
closely drawn between the administration
and anti-administration factions. Each put
up five delegates
Thirty-tive of the SO committeeman were
present. The vote resulted in the election
OF two administration and three anti-ad-
mlnistration delegates, as follows: Admin
1stratlon, Q. c. Covers, James B. Plasterer;
anti-administration, c. F. Fendrick, D. D.
Swanger and W. T. Omwake. The first
four were elected on the first ballot, Om-
wake and Lee Rhodes being tie. A sec
ond ballot was ordered after vigorous pro-
test, and Omwake was elected. The admin
lstratlon followers propose sending Rhodes
to the convention, and attempt to have him
admitted on half vote. Resolutions were
passed indorsing Pattison's administration
as Governor, and indorsing Cleveland for
President. August was selected as the
date for the County Convention.

A NEW HOSPITAL.

The Ladies' Aid Society OF the Southside
Institution Will Erect a BuiIdinp-
Looking for Site-Candidates for the
Secretaryship.
The annual meeting of the Ladies' Aid
Society of the Southside Hospital will take
place next Tuesday afternoon, in st. Marks
Guild House. The principal business will
be the election of officers for the ensuing
year. The board of managers think that
there will not be any change The present
officers give entire satisfaction, and the
feeling is that they should not be dis.
turbed. The society of ladies was oroan-
lied last April, and since it has been in ex-
istence it has turned over to the hospital
board, consisting of the doctors con-
nected with the institution, $3.50
leaving $1,000 in their own treasury for
the building fund. 1t will take $40 600 to
put up the new hospital building, and it ia
expected that the other S31, 900 will be
raised by popular subscription. Messrs A.
II. Heisy and John L. Lewis, of the South
side, have started subscriptions among the
men in their establishments, and do not ex.
pect to experience much difficulty in rais-
ing the required sum. Everybody in the
two cities is requested to subscribe The
committee appointed to select site for the
new hospital has not reported yet, but it is
determined that the building shall be on the
fiat, and not on any of the hills on the South
side. 1t was rumored some time ago that
the committee were considering the propri-
ETY. of purchasing the Allen school building,
but the ladies of the society declare that the
story was utterly baseless.
The Directors of the Southside Hospital
met last night and passed resolutions Of
respect on the death of their late Secretary,
Wallace J. Frost. The election of sue.
cessor will be held at the next regular
meeting of the directors. Albert Reisfar,
of the Howard Hartley Company; Bert
the Southside Gas Company. have offered
their services gratis and a selection will
probably be made from these three to fill
the position. 1t is thought Mr. Reisfar
will be elected.

PHILADELPHIA, March 29.-At a full
meeting of the Democratic Committee of
Philadelphia county, held this evening,
George McGowen in the chair, the commit
tee appointed to examine into the conduct
of the January primary elections prior to
the organization of the committee reported
that they found numerous instances of de-
liberate and studied frauds, and that the
Harrity City Committee has certified to the
election of a number of persons as delegates
to the State Convention who were not
honestly, duly or legally elected. The COM
mittee presented list of delegates whom
they believed were honestly and legally
elected and demanded that the officers of
the committee so certify them to the Chair
man of the State Committee.
The committee of 35 appointed at the
recent convention to devise new rules has
met, with 80 members present, and formed
permanent organization, with w. S. Stenger
as Chairman. A subcommittee of five was
appointed to formulate rules. Its sessions
will be public.

M'KEESPORT SINGED.

A Handsome Church and Other Buildings
Burned-SchooI Children Saved by Cool
Heads-The Origin of tho Fire Very
Peculiar-Loss $4,000.
MCKEEsPoRT, March Especial IA
$40, 600 fire occurred here at p NJ. to-day
which destroyed the pretty new church of
the Coursin Street M. E congregation,
which cost $4,000, and three fine frame
dwellings and stable, besides damaging
several other buildings. The fire depart
ment could not cope with the confagration
and up to the time it was reinforced by the
department from the National Tube Works
looked as though from 20 to 80 houses
would be consumed. At $3.50 when twenty
buildings along Coursin street, Fifth ave-
nue. and the hillside were burning, Mayor
Tilbrook wired to Pittsburg for assistance.
At 4:30, however, the flames were stayed,
and the order was countermanded.
The origin of the fire is peculiar The
church, large brick structure, is located in
front of stone quarry, few feet from
Fifth avenue and faces on Coursin street.
At the rear, on the bluff, about so feet above
the church roof, is row of five two-story
buildings owned by John A. Shaw. The
SoinOl ouC, OCCuplCu ny OOlu De-
gan to slide down hill about $40 and fell
between the quarry wall and the church, a
distance of about go feet. As the building
fell crash followed. The fire in the house
set the building on fire and the flames pene-
trated the church. In few minutes its
interior and the three adjoining buildings
were ablaze. Nothing but few chairs and
an organ were saved in the church.
A panic occurred when the schoolhouse,
containing 1000 pupils, caught The princi-
pal and teachers, however, quieted the little
ones and averted loss of life, The Hill
family got out of their home just before it
slid into the quarry. Their escape was
miraculous.
Mr. Shaw's loss is $1,000 on the three
houses, on which he had 81, 500 insurance.
The church was insured for $40, 900 as fol-
lows: Ph@nix, of BROOKLYN, 5000; Cir
ard, Philadelphia, s5, 900; Union, Philadel-
Phia, 5000; Peoples, Pittsburg, 5000.
There is mortgage OF $40, 900 on the church,
held by q Philadelphia syndicate of
heirs, while the floating debt is 81, 900, thus
leaving the congregation but 5000. Rev.
George Arbin is the pastor, and had large
and wealthy congregation. During the ex-
citement fireman was badly cut by glass
and several others were injured, but none
seriously.

mined that the old Liberty Bell, as well as
ored hall shall be sent out to Chicago.
These articles will add materially to the in
terest felt in the building.
1t was not until March 90 that the final
specifications were definitely settled upon.
Now work will be pushed rapidly and the
building will be at least partially occupied
by October IA.
The cuts herewith presented show the
arrangement of the two stories and give
good idea of the general appearance of the
edifice.

1t has taken considerable amount of
time and no little work to render the speci-
fcations of the Pennsylvania State Building
satisfactory to the National Committee in
Chicago and to the Pennsylvania State
Board of Managers. At length, however,
matters have been definitely adjusted. Some
months ago the design of Mr.. Thomas P.
Lonsdale, of Philadelphia was accepted.
Since then, however, numerous modifica-
tions have been made in the original plans
relating to the construction of the dome
and to the interior decorations and finish
ings of the structure.

The License Court.

The granting of new licenses gives rise to
the question, where will all the new ones
buy their lager beer? The most of them will
buy from the Iron City Brewing Company.
This is the largest brewery, with an an
nual capacity of 25000O barrels. Their
lager beer, pilsner beer and book beer are
favorites with the people. and are sold
everywhere. No licensed house can draw
better beer trade than by using the Iron City
Brewing Company's beer, formerly Frauen-
helm & Vilsack.
