The Morgantown Postmaster Uses Language
for Which He Is ScaIped.
READING, PA, Jan. 23.-[ Special 7-"To
hades with both Harrison and Wanamaker''
is an expression which is destined to have a
wider circulation than its author intended.
1t was used by Postmaster Levi S. Shirk. OF
Morgantown, this county, and it cost him
his official head The assertion was
the outcome of the factional differ
ences in the Republican party in
this county. Augustus M. High, as
the leader of the party in Berks, was elected
to the Chicago convention four years ago,
and although Blaine man, at the proper
time swung in for Harrison. He then be-
came a candidate for postmaster of Read
ing. This caused violent opposition, and
resulted in the appointment of Captain p.
R. Stetson. Since then every Republican
in the county s-either q High or an anti
High man.
As vindication Mr.. High again ran for
national delegate last fall, and was chosen
unanimously to the Minneapolis Conven-
tion. the first national delegate elected in
ing Blaine man. Postmaster Shirk was one
of his strongest supporters during recent
heated controversy. He used the express
sion, "To hades with both Harrison and
Wanamaker." This was carried to those
two pious Presbvterians, and they appointed
as his successor Peter Deichley, an anti
High man. Mr.. Shirk was postmaster over
15 years.

NEW YoRK, Jan. 23.-[Specidl. 1-There
Will be an investigation into the case of
Wilfred Almsblad, the sailor who fell into
the hold of ship at pier 16, East river,
Thursday night, aud whom Ambulance Sur
geon Fitzpatrick, of the Chambers Street
Hospital, refused to take tothe hospital,
saying it was a simple case of drunk, al
fractured skull, sprained knee and other
injuries. Almsblad was sent to Bellevue
hospital from the Tombs Court BY order of
Justice'Smith. He was sight when brought
into court Both eyes were blackened, his
face was cut and bleeding, and he could not
walk. His face and different parts of his
body were fearfully swollen He could
hardly speak, and he groaned with pain
when he attempted to move in the chair in
which the policemen had placed him. JUS
tice Smith said: 'It is an outrage that
man in the condition of that man could not
be admitted to hospital
When Almsblad reached Bellevue be was
almost unconscious. He died at 9 o'clock
last night. The Bellevue doctors had found
at once that the mans skull was fractured,
and In the few hours he was at that hospital
ne was carefully treated, but it was too late.
Deputy Coroner Jenkins, who performed
an autopsy to-day, found the entire frontal
bone in fragments. 1t was said at the Coro-
ner's Office that ap inquest would certainly
be held in the case, and that medical men of
ability would be summoned as witnesses,
and it would be found out exactly how
much of the responsibility for Almsblad's
death could be laid to Ambulance Surgeon

A RESIGNATION REFUSED.
The Pope Insists on DIR. Messmer Accepting
His Bishopric.

His Bishopric.
NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-ISpeciaZ Two
months ago the Pope appointed Rev. DR..
Sebastian Gebhard Messmer, a professor of
canon law at the Catholic University in
Washington, to the bIshopric of Green Bay,
Wis, which had been made vacant BY the
elevation of Bishop Frederick XaYier
Katzer to the archbishopric of Milwau-
kee. DR.. Messmer had set his mind on
becoming member of the faculty of the.
Catholic University. Through Archbishop
Katzer he requested the Pope to name
someone else for the bishopric of Green
Bay. Word has just come from Rome that
the Pope has declined to accept his resigna-
tion, and Dr. Messmer will therefore soon
leave the Catholic University.
DR.. Messmer, brother of Rev. Gabriek
Messmer, head of the Capuchin Fathers
Church and Monastery of Our Lady of Sor-
rows in this city, was born in St. Gall,
Switzerland, August 27, 1847. In Rome
he completed his theological studies,
and on July 81, 1871, he was raised
to the priesthood at St. Gall by
Bishop Greith. Two months later he came
to this country, and was almost immed-
lately appointed to the Professorship of
Dogmatic Theology at Seton Hall, in South
Orange, the ecclesiastical seminary of the
diocese of Newark. He held this post
until 1889, when he was selected to fill
the Chair of Canon Law In the new Catholic
University

PETERSBURG, VA, Jan. 23.-[Special i
Yesterday afternoon several bows were in
the grocery store of w. o. Newsom, on the
corner of Halifax and Byrne streets, en-
gagged in friendly conversation. Finally
they began splitting OF each others feet in a
playful way. Among the boys were H. Smith
Spiers, white, aged 13, and Joe Byrd, col
ored, aged 1S. Spiers spat in Byrd's face,
and then Byrd spat in Spiers' face. Spiers
was on one side of the stove and Byrd on
the other After Byrd spat in Spiers' face
the latter walked over to Byrd and stabbed
him with large pocket-knife, inhicting a
wound which caused his death this morn
Ing.
The remarkable part of the sad affair is
that not a single angry word passed between
the two boys. A Coroner's inquest was
held this afternoon, and the verdict of the
jury was that Byrd came to his death from
a wound inflicted with aaknife in the hands
of Spiers, who has been arrested and COM
mitted to Jail. The unfortunate boy is
son of the late H. S. Spiers. a former mer-
chant of this city.

Agent O'Brien Investigates . Sad Case of
Destitution.

Agent O'Brien Investigates . Sad Case OF
Destitution.
Agent O'Brien, of the Humane Society,
has been investigating case of destitution
on Spring alley. Several DAYS ago David
Williams called at his Office and asked the
agent to assist him. Mr.. Williams is 70
years of age, has a wife 6S years old, one
infrm daughter and another who is unable
to earn much of livelihood
Mr.. Williams is shoemaker by trade,
but has not been able to do much lately.
The family has been elected two or three
times recently because of their inability to
pay rent, the last time being from house
on the Southside. Agent O'Brien called at
the house in which Mr. Williams is living
last night. He found the whole
family living, or trying TO live,
in one room about 12 feet
square. There was but one bed in the
room. The two girls. aged 16 and Is re-
spectively, had retired for the night on the
floor. Mr.. Williams told most pitiable
story. He said he had only made As cents
at his trade during the past week, and that
was taken from him by his landlady for
rent. For two days he had nothing to eat,
and the only food the family had in the
house for Sunday was loaf of bread
Williams is an old soldier, having
served in the late war for four years and
three months, in the One Hundred and
Twenty fifth Regiment, New York Volun-
teers. Agent O'Brien says he will try to
get some of the Grand Army men inter-
ested in the case and see if they won't give
him some assistance.
One of the daughters made an informa-
tion before Alderman Donovan last night,
charging Mrs. Welsh, the landlady. with
disorderly conduct, alleging that because
they could not pay their rent Mrs. Welsh
had abused her parents.

LAW OPENLY BROKEN.
Contract Laborers Brought Into Penn
sylVania in Droves.
SOME ASTOUNDING REVELATIONS
Made BY Thorough Investigation by New
York Inspectors.
FOREIGN MINERS IN THE MAJORITY

NEW YORK, Jan. 23-Contract Labor In
spectors Conkling and Osborne. who wers
sent from this city to the mining districts of
Pennsylvania to investigate the working of
the alien contract law, have sent their re-
port to Secretary Foster, of the Treasury
Department The report states that they
discovered evidences of wholesale violation
OF the law that was framed to protect Amer.
lean workingmen.
In the mines surrounding Scranton it was
found that nine-tenths of the miners at
present employed are Hungarians, Italians
or Slavs. Five years ago the miners there
were nearly all Americans At the Ariou
mine, in Western Pennsylvania, Major Os-
borne learned that Hungarian and Italian
immigrants come there IN squads of 200 at a
time, direct from the Barge Office in this
city, in charge of padrones.
In the mines near -Carbondale, in 1886,
there were 600 miners, all American citi-
zens. While the miners strike was on, in
1889 and 1890, large numbers of Slsvs and
Hungarians were brought to the mines from
Castle Garden under the protection of
P1nkerton detectives. AT the last election.
out of 7S7 miners employed there, just 6S
were entitled to vote.
The inspectors found that immigrants
were brought over from Europe in droves,
passed through the Barge Office BY an agent,
and taken to the mines to supersede Amer
lean miners. There are several men em-
ployed by the mine owners whose sole duty
is to visit the Barge Office and get lmmi-
grant contract laborers passed through
One nah in particular was nick-named
the "Much-Cousin Man." as he would
visit the Barge Office and secure the release
of detained immigrants claiming them as
cousins, brothers or other relatives
The inspectors recommend more stringent
scrutiny of immigrants passing through the
different landing places. At present they
say the law is practically useless, as con-
tract laborers pass through by thousands
without detection

Der Of tho Dead.
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 25.-The list of
dead and injured has not been diminished,
but has changed somewhat. c. H. German,
of Mcdonald, Mich, who was classed with
the dead yesterday, appeared last evening
alive and uninjured He was one of the
first to escape when the fire broke out. The
body at the morgue of D. Kregolo & Son,
which had been taken for that of Mr.. Cor
man, was last evening identified as that of
DR.. Pryor, of Ann Arbor, Mich, who was at
the institute being treated for curvature of
the spine. DR.. Pryor slept in the ''roost,"
as it was called. Clara Romer, who, under
the name of "Clara Morris, was reported
as injured yesterday, was discovered last
evening at the house of relatives in this
city. She was one of the first to escape.
Another of the missing, Mrs. Clump, was
also found at the home of family in the
city. The little Rayliss boy, whose body
was found in the ruins this morning, was in
the nursery in the main building of the in
stitute.
There are II bodies in the morgue identi-
fed, with the Lazarus child dying. Grief
over the calamity has begun to-day to make
itself known in its full force. Since last
night the relatives of the dead and Injured
and also of those " ho escaped unhurt, have
been arriving BY the score The work Of
removing the dead and injured to their
homes has begun. The uninjured, too, are
departing for their homes, and it looks as if
there will be general exodus of the pa
tients of the institute.
