A Receiver Asked,

PITTsBURG, PA, February CIV.

and that no dividends have been paid
since 1887; he alleges that over 81, 0OO,-
900 worth Of coal has been taken from
the property; that the officers OF the
company have been attempting to de-
ceive the orator and other stockholders
by false and fraudulent statements, not
exhibiting the true condition OF affairs;
that they are now wllfully investing
and mismanaging the assets Of the COM
pany and converting the same to their
own use or to the use Of other persons
associated with them for that purpose.

able in the coal regions and the present
suit caused much surprise.

UNION SWITCH AND SIGNAL.
A Fight for the Management of the Big
Concern to be Made.


PITTsBURG, Pa, February 20. -
There will be another fight to secure
control of the Union Switch and Signal
Company at the coming annual meeting
OF the stockholders in March.
A year ago the Boston interests sue
ceeded in overthrowing the Westing-
house regime, and this year the latter
will make an effort to regain their lost
power. Circulars asking for proxies
have been issued by the Boston stock
holders. in which a summary is given OF
the management during the past twelve
months. The circular claims that since
the new administration took hold the
floating interesting bearing Indebted
ness has been reduced from S47S, 900 to
1854, 7O9.4O. The annual fixed salary
charges reduced $4,000, and the open
accounts payble $4,000; that the com
mon stock has been increased nearly
800 per cent, and the preferred stock
200 per cent, and that the contracts for
the first six weeks OF 1892 aggregate
within 100000 of the total business OF
1891.
Mr.. Westinghouse is in New York,
but his private secretary, Walter Upde-
graf, in commenting upon the circular
said it was on a par with all the efforts
of the present management TO belittle
Mr.. Westinghouse and his connection
with the company. The notes Of the
company bear his endorsement, and are
carried with his collaterals; that the
contracts were secured through Messrs.
Westinghouse and Pitcairn, and that
while the circular gives the impression
that the net earnings were about S3l2,-
600, as a matter of fact they were about
sos, 900. In conclusion he said Mr..
Westinghouse already had proxies for
more than one-half the entire capital
stock and was not worrying.

TIE KERMoIsE STILL ALIVE.
Inc Opera House Packed Last Night at
the Second Performance

the Second Performance.
AT the second performance OF the
hermoise at the Opera House, last night.
there was an assemblage that severely
taxed the capacity OF the Opera House.
EVERY seat was taken, and it was
standing room only" at the time the
performance began.
The two performances OF the Ker.
noise have been like the comparison of
the adjective good; with the second
rendition its excellence increased, no
possible fault could be found; not even
tedious delays between the different
dances.
No dance was introduced last night
that has not already received special
mention and elaborate description, yet
each, II space allowed, deserves a sec
ond and third mention because OF the
Improvement in the final renditions
which practice before an audience will
always develop.
Among those who attended the Ker-
noise two debatsble subjects have taken
up great part Of their conversation
since. The first subject has been which
was the prettiest dance; the second,
who was the prettiest girl. Now, the
REGISTER reporter, rather than advance
any opinion and endanger his
scalp on the question, re-
mains on the fence. There was not
single dance that was not greeted with
applause, and not a girl on the stage
who could at the time be considered
homely, lest it be the Indian maidens so
effected by plenteous war paint and
powder.
The final observation OF a transient
spectator would naturally be that Prof.
Speedy is thorough instructor Of the
terpsichorean ART, and that Wheeling
girls are the prettiest, sweetest, and
most endearing creatures that ever trod
the earth since Eve was made from one
Of Adams ribs.
The Kermoise will be repeated to-
night.
KERMOISE-LETS.
Miss Elsie Gundling was picture Of
grace In the delightful Scotch dance.
The Wheat-Speidel dances again held
the vast audience spell bound last
night.
Miss Rose Lukens, in the Indian
Maiden dance, has the lateral head
movement down 10 a science.
One Of the most earnest and sprightly
dancers was Miss Mary Smythe, whose
genial countenance kept pace with her
merry movements.
The receipts on the opening night
were little short OF $500, instead OF
500, as mentioned in yesterdays paper.
The receipts last night were about $3.50.
Miss Sue Caldwell was we'll chosen in
the lead Of the beautiful gavotte. She
is a graceful dancer, and was we'll sup
ported by her partner, Joseph Speidel.
Carmencita dances the Cachca much
the same as does Miss Florence Atkin-
son, only in faster time. For so short a
time in practice Miss Atkinson ac-
complished this difficult dance remark
ably well.
Among the many earnest and active
ladies engaged in the preparation OF the
Kermoise, Mrs. Joseph Speidel deserves
special mention, as she devoted many
long and successful hours to planning
and arranging.
During the Ghost dance by the Indians
last night, Mr.. VIII Day, who was one
of the "tuff" looking ChoCtaws, was pre-
sented with large floral piece, the gift
OF the Elks. The flowers in the emblem
were plucked just before the late war.

In THE SCHOOLS.
How the Week Has Been Generally
Spent-Other Notey.

How the week Has been Uenerhhy
Spent-Other Note'.
Yesterday afternoon the Grammar
Department held their exercises appro-
pirate to WaShington's Birthday, hav-
ing been deferred on account OF there
being no school last Monday. The per-
formers acquitted themselves with merit.
The exercises in the other schools
were completed either last Friday or
during the early part of the week.
With Washington's Birthday there
are few instances connected. 1t is quito
hard for the teacher to make the little
ones understand who George Washing
ton was. In one Of the schools the
teacher Of one Of the lower grades asked
the children who George Washington
was. For a while there was no reply,
each youngster looking at the other.
Finally one tot spoke out and said: "He
was man" The teacher then asked If
that was all she knew about him. The
child Immediately answered and said:
~ believe he is dead" At this junct-
ure the teacher thought IL was incum-
bent on her to commence from the first
and tell the whole story Of George
Washington.
During the last three days the scholars
have been having their regular two
months written examinations, from
which their reports will be made out and
sent TO their respective parents some
time during the coming week. The
senior class were examined at Clay
school, on Thursday, in Philosophy,
Definitions and Reading. All the class
seemed we'll pleased with the eXamina-
ton. The reading examination was in
charge Of Miss Harper and Miss Clohan.
The Worlds Fair Talks were COM
mepced at Clay school, yesterday after
noon, and proved to be quite success.
Nv next Friday all the schools will COM
mence and continue these talks for an
hour every other Friday afternoon dur
ing the year. .
The teachers Of A and B grades Of
Centre and Webster schools held their
regular monthly meeting yesterday
Next Friday Washington and Union
grades hold theirs.
The pupiIs OF the annex at Richie

tertainment during the latter part OF
