John Anderson, employed as waiter for
the non-union men in the Homestead mill,
was given a rough reception in Pittsburg
last evening Yesterday afternoon, when
through work, Anderson came to the city
to visit some frients and make some pur-
started out Forbes street to Soho in the
evening" When between Lawn and Brady
streets he was accosted by a crowd of young
men, one of whom asked him for a chew of
tobacco. Anderson produced his plug and
it was promptly appropriated.
At this juncture one of the men ex-
claimed: "You're a scab from Homestead. E"
Questions we're put to Anderson, and he
finally admitted he worked in the Home
stead mill They made for him, but An
derson ran, with the crowd after him.
Stones were thrown at him and yells and
curses followed him. Anderson finally
took refuge in a small alley between two
houses, and q small mob quickly gathered.
There were cries of Lynch him, lynch
him." and matters looked blue for the
fugitive.
Police Lieutenant Duncan appeared and
saved Anderson. To get him from the
crowd he put him under arrest and called
the patrol wagon. When it arrived ADder-
son was placed in it and taken to the Four
teenth ward station. No charge was pre-
terred against him, but he was locked up
for the night. He carried 3S-caliber re-
volver and a box of cartridges. He had
been struck by several stones, but v as not
hurt, and was glad to be safely housed in
the station house.

"Will you be candidate for the Demo-
cratic Congress ional nomination in Allie
gheny county," was the inquiry by THE
DISPATCH correspondent of President
Weihe, of the Anialgamated Association,
this evening shortly after the conference
scale had been signed.
II do not want to discuss politics, but
will say this: 1 am not candidate for Con-
gress, and will not be. My term as Presi-
dent of the Amalgamated Association does
not expire until November, and while hold
ing that position I do not think it would be
right for me to engage in politics. The
Amalgamated Association is not political
organization, and should not in any way,
least of all by its officials, be dragged into
politics
81 have received many assurances that I
could receive the Congressional nomination
il would consent to allow my name to be
used, but that 1 will not dn. Ny time and
the best abilities I have belong to the
Amalgamated Association, and it certainly
would not be treating the organization
right which has conferred upon me the
highest honors, to engage now in something
else that would take the time that belongs
to them. I do not intend to engage in
politics, and in fact, have given it little
thought, as more important matters engross
my attention"

PUT POISON IN. THE BEER.
William Fox Arrested and Taken to Con-
| n"DsvfIle on a Serious Charge.

William Fox Arrested and Taken to Con-
n"IIsviIle on a Serious Charge.
A constable from Connellsville came into
town last night to secure William Fox, the
colored man arrested here on Friday on a
charge of attempting to poison his wife.
The constable tells most damaging story
of Fox's career in Connellsville. Fox is q
barber in that town and has lived with his
wife happily at times for IS wears He is 81
years old and for few years past has been
the beneficiary in life insurance policy
held by his wife in the sum of 81, 900.
On last Monday. it is alleged, Fox procured
a poison called red specific and mixed it with
some beer and candy that he had purchased.
He had two visitors at his house in the
evening, Mrs. Gordon and Mrs. Spiel
man, both white women. They all partook
of the beer and the candy, except Fox him
self The visitors only tasted it, and wanted
no more, while Mrs Fox took it freely.
That night she became very sick, and Dr.
McClintock was sent for. He seemed to do
her little good, and Mrs. Gordon and Mrs.
Spielman offered to prescribe, but Fox re-
fused to let them.
Mrs. Fox is still in precarious condi-
tion, and remained SO until the neighbdrs
became alarmed and began to talk, and Fox
learning the gossip about his wife being
peculiarly sick suddenly left the place on
Friday and came to this city. What made
the case look more suspicious was the fac.
of Mrs. Gordon and Mrs. Spielman getting
sick but only slightly alter drinking the
beer, and they freely expressed the opinion
that Fox had put poison in the liquor
Mrs. Gordon also alleges that the attending
physician advised Fox ''to get out oftown. l"
Fox says he does not know how the poison
got in the beer. He will be taken back to
Connellsville TODAY.

"The city's health is remarkably good, "
said DR.. McCandless yesterday. 'The
lower portion of the city and hill districts
have less sickness and smaller number Of
deaths than the East Fad. It would natur-
ally be supposed that the condition would
be the reverse. Take the Eighth and
Eleventh wards for instance. Not one
death has occurred in these districts for the
last three or four weeks The Seventh ward
is also particularly healthy, the second
death for the same period being reported
this morning. Limerick, about which we
hear SO much, is just as healthy as any
place.
''This favorable condition of the city is
due entirely to the efforts made to keep the
alleys and streets clean. Because we are in
such healthy condition is no reason why
we should relax the vigilance which has
brought us this state, for if cholera should
come one of our greatest weapons for fight
ing the disease would be cleanliness and
perfect drainage"
