TO BE SOLD AT ONCE.
The Old Postofice Will Be Auctioned
OFF by Uncle Sam.
ARRANGING FOR THE DAY OF SALE
Allegheny's POstofice Commission Down
to Hard Work.
THEY EXAMINE 4 DtZ3N LOCATIONS

Arrangements for the sale of the old post
Office building are being completed and the
old structure will be offered at public
auction Immediately after the new year.
Postmaster Mexican held conference with
Ex-Governor Gear, Assistant Secretary Of
the Treasury, at the Hotel Duquesne last
night and they arranged the details for
the sale of the property. All the papers,
with transcripts of the deeds for the prop
erty, were forwarded to Washington three
weeks ago, and Secretary Gear was empow-
cred to arrange for the sale while here with
the commission to select a site for the Allie
gheny postofice.
There is likely to be lively competition
for the old postofice site. One large cloth
ing firm in the city, it is said, has already
filed bid of $500, 900 for the property, and
syndicate of local capitalists has been
formed for the purpose of buying it. 1t is
also reported that the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company will endeavor to secure the
property with q view to making a union
| depot on the site at some future time.
| When the Government acquired the prop
erty it cost, building and all, about $50, 600.
Mr. Gear said last night that the COM
| mission to select site for the Allegheny
postoffice had yesterday examined II differ
ent properties. He refused to say whether
site had been determined upon. He be-
lieved all the properties were held at exor-
bitant prices. He said that q different To-
cations had been offered for sale, but
that only the IL examined yesterday
were suitably located. After ex-
amining the properties the commission
visited the assessors Office and secured data
regarding the assessments. Several prom
inent property owners and business men
were consulted regarding the prices asked
for the locations examined, and the com
mission will, at their leisure, decide upon
one of the places for the proposed new post
Office.
"We have about determined on the
property that we will recommend" Mr.
Gear said last night, ''but we are sworn u
secrecy, and we cannot say word on the
subject until after our report Is submitted
to Secretary Foster"

The answer came back in gruff, broken
English: Looking at the street. He then
hurried away.

A DISPATCH man was out In that local.
itv Yesterday. A number of people were
spoken to, and they are all complaining
about police protection, One gentleman
said that if he did not come down town oc-
casionally he would not know what police
man looked like.
At Winebiddle and Liberty avenues I. j.
Williams, a prominent contractor, lives
He, too, las a grievance. Several nights
ago Mrs. Williams came down town to at
tend some entertainment She was to re-
turn about 10 o'clock, and her husband was
to meet her at Center and Liberty avenues
as she alighted from the street cars. For
some reason Mrs Williams came home on
the Penn avenue cars and got of at Wlne-
biddle. She started down this most fash-
ionable avenue alone.
DefenseIess Woman Assaulted.
When about half way home man sprang
from behind a clump of bushes and caught
her bv the arm. She screamed out and
broke away from him, starting to run. She
was awfully frightened and in the excitement
fell. The man ran up to her in an instant,
again catching her bv the arm. She made
another break for liberty, screaming as she
ran. The highwayman followed her short
distance. but afraid of her screams gave up
the chase. Persons hearing the woman s
cries went to her assistance and took her
safely home. She was nearly prostrated by
fright and hurt herself quiet severely In
falling
The husband, in speaking of it yesterday,
said: If we had the proper police protec-
tion my wife would never have been as
saulted as she was. I never see an officer
out in this locality. 1t is frequent thing
to hear Of ladies being assaulted on Wine
biddle avenue. Only three or four days
ago there was girl attacked Just near my,
house, and my next door neighbor heard
her screams and rescued her. There is
plenty of light oD Winebiddle avenue, and
what we want now is to see policeman out
that wav, annually at least."

A GOOD THING FOR BRADDOCK.
The Building of a Bridge Across the Monon.
gahela Exciting Much Interest

The Building of a Bridge Across the Monon-
gahela Exciting Much Interest
The introduction in Congress by Congress-
man Dalzell of a bill providing for the con-
struction of a bridge across the Mononga-
hela Just west of Braddock, should it be-
come law, will develop interests that will
add immensely to the prosperity of Brad
dock The bridge will provide route for
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company to get
into Homestead, and the Carnegie Steel
Company is greatly interested in the mat
ter OF entering the Homestead mills with a
direct process from their blast furnaces
there. Such an Improvement would create
some remarkable changes both in the af-
fairs of the Pennsylvania and the Carnegie
Steel Company.
The delay in the construction of the four
blast furnaces which have been in contem-
plation for more than a year by the Car
negie. Company is laid at the bottom of this
project. These furnaces were originally in
tended to go to Duquesne, but subsequently,
for some reason at that time not so ap-
parent, they were designed to be located at
Braddock, on the old race track, just east of
the mill proper.

Treasury Agent D. D. Spaulding came
from Washington yesterday and Will re-
main until the transfer of the Internal Rev

Acting Agent Mitchell was instructed to
have the schedules of property and out
standing taxes ready to turn over to Mr.

the District Court, this morning and will
then be forwarded to Washington tor ap-

from the East tomorrow, when Mr.. Miller
will present his resignation as Superintend-
ent of the Bureau of Water assessments In
the department of Public Works
Agent Spaulding and Collector Miller
had conference last night and arranged
for the transfer. They will go into the
Office tomorrow and by Monday morning
Mr.. Miller will have complete charge. He
was asked last night whether he would
make complete change in the subordlnates
of the district
"Most assuredly not" was his reply.
''There are 27 persons in the district whose
terms expire when Mr. Mitchell vacates the
office, but unless 1 find them uncongenial
in one way or another they will not be dis
turbed. I am fortunate in having no
pledges to fulfill in going into this
office, and il may be that no
changes whatever will be necessary In
addition to the 27 persons have mentioned
there are two storekeepers and gauger at

district. They are appointed or removed
by the Treasury Department on recommend.

Mr. Miller will, however, have one gaugel
to appoint, death having removed on Tues
day night the man employed III that
capacity at the Freeport distillery.
