Whereas, We regard such action as a gross
violation of the religious public sentiment
of the country; therefore be it
Resolved, That We earnestly protest
against such action.
To Stop the Appropriations.
Resolved, That we memorabilia the Con-
gress of the United States that the proposed
appropriation of said Exposition be granted
only on condition that the sale of intoAi-
eating liquors be excluded.
Resolved, That the Secretary be directed
to transmit an attested copy of this action
TO our representatives in the two Houses of
Congress, and to the secretary of the Worlds
Columbian Exposition.
There was also a resolution protesting
against the opening of the Worlds Fair on
Sunday. Both of these resolutions were
adopted.
Rev. Mr. ChaIfant reported that the board
OF the church extension had decided to
grant 500 to the church at McKees' Rocks
for building purposes, and $500 to the
church at Homewood for preachers salary.
Rev. Mr.. Clark entered a very earnest pro-
test against granting $500 to the Homewood
church for preachers salary. The speaker
said that the minister at the Homewood
church knew when he went there that the
salary was 81 900 per year, as it was simply
mission church, and that it was not fair to
the ministers at other mission churches to
grant additional salary.
Rev. Mr.. Chalfant said the case was not
unprecedented. many like ones having oc-
CURED. The Presbytery then voted and
adopted the committees report granting
the money, after which they adjourned to
meet on March in the parlor of the First
Church at u O'Clock sharp.

THE GR0UNDH0G'S PROPHECY.
Many Persons Who Take Stock in the Pc
culiar Weather Forecast.

Many Persons Who Take Stock in the Pc
culiar Weather Forecast.
Yesterday was Grounding Day as well as
Candlemas Day, and since Prof. Totten, of
the United States Service and Yale College,
has courage enough to tell people that
unusual conjugation of planets syh-
chronize with momentous events in human
history, many people in this neck of the
woods have had their faith in animal in
stinct greatly revived. Charles Robb, of
Montdtlr, states that he has observed for
more than generation that the ID of Feb
ruary ruled the weather until the middle OF
March. 1t is true that some people will not
agree with him, but the sun may not have
distributed its favors equally. Mr.. Robb
believes with many others that science can
not bind the sweet influences of Pieades, or
loose the bonds of Orion, nor bring forth
Mazzaroth in his season, or guide Arcturus
with his suns, so they are disposed to be-
1eve that the unpretending wood-chuck
may exhibit wisdom unconsciousy as a
spirit medium and that science cannot stay
the battles of heaven, or even bring rain
when backed by the power of the United
States Treasury in the explosion of rack-a-
rock powder. and even failure this year to
fulfill the predictions of the grounding is
not like to shake their faith.
The PENNSYLVANIA Dutch regard Candle
mas Day as the division period of the winter
solstice and say that half of the winter feed
ihs. vi aiIluiiiIS Is dccoinplisneu on tnat Uay.
As j. ID. Watson remarks there may be
good reason on the part of Pittsburg people
to wish the superstition may prove true this
year, as it will have a large effect on bust
ness. Last summer the strike of the build
ing trades had much to do with slowing up
trado operations in this locality. Then
money was scarce and needed to move the
crops. The surplus is now largely in Europe
and the return should be felt within the
next six weeks, and Mr.. Watson says there
is already premonttion of large movement
in real estate should there be an early
spring

A DOCTOR IN PRISON
While Alleged Suspicious Methods
Are Investigated.
he ADVERTISED FOR A PARTNER,
But Was So Anxious to Obtain Money as to
Create Doubt.
TRAVELLING UNDER MANY ALIASES

DR.. Thomas F. Allison, of Providence,
R. l., alias DR.. Charles p Marshall, alias
Dr. Stevens, of St. Louis, occupies cell No.
at Central station with the charge of being
suspicious character pending against him.
The prisoner arrived in the city few
days ago and Immediately advertised for a
partner with cash capital of $50 or S75
who was to travel with a medical lecturer
and could earn from $40 20 $50 per week.
Among those to answer the advertisement
was James H. Beckley, of 293 Second
avenue, who answered by note, giving his
address The doctor, who is tall, striking
looking man, of GO years. called at Mr..
Beckley's house, and after short converse
tion invited Mr. Beckley to meet him last
evening at the st. James Hotel.
At the appointed time Mr.. Beckley called
at the hotel where he was met by the doctor,
and after taking drink was invited down
to the Seventh Avenue Hotel. On their
arrival the doctor proceeded to business,
and wanted to know how much money
Beckley had. The latter replied that about
$50 was the sum total OF his cash, and the
doctor wanted him to turn 1t over. Mr..
Beckley in the meantime had become sus-
p1c1ous OF the doctors actions, and not only
refused to turn the money over, but men-
toned the matter to Detective Demmel
When the detective called at the Seventh
Avenue Hotel he found the doctor COM
placently occupying chair in the reading
room, but on searching the register failed to
find that he was guest of the house. The
doctor was then placed under arrest. He
affected to be very much surprised that his
actions should in the least be doubted.
When searched at Central station various
hand bills were found ON his person, some
ofthem for lectures by DR.. Charles P. Mar
shall, of ST. Louis, for gentlemen only, sub
ject, "The Marriage Relation and others
for lectures by a female physician to women
only. Among other things found on him
were half dozen answers to his Pittsburg
advertisements, and the police authorities
think that some of the writer's may have
been duped out of their money.
The prisoner claims to be regular physi-
clan, and that he has letters of recommended
tion from prominent citizens in the East
and West.

MINOR LOCAL MENTION,

The new passenger station at the junction
of the Pittsburg and Lake Erie and Montoul
| railways is the finest way station on the
Zine of either road, and for that matter
finer than any at either end The moIdine

are upholstered in the highest style by
railway decoration art and are cozy and not

along the sides of the building. The freight
station has not yet been rebuilt.

stable belonging to Mr.. Marshall on
Perrysville avenue. The matter will be
settled later.
CORONER MCDOWELL yesterday started the
inquest on the body OF the Italian found in

up the mystery surrounding the case and
it was continued for further investigation.

Monongehela City on the mail train last
evening and taken to the West Penn Hospi-
tai. He was suffering from a crushed arm
and hand, having had them caught in a

Jobbers Coming in for the Convention.

The glass and crockery jobbers will meet
in convention at the Monongahea House
to-day. Secretary ii. P. McGregor, oil
Wheeling, arrived in the city yesterday
morning. President Jenner will be here to-
day. A number of jobbers from ali parts OF
the country are registered at the hotel A
caucus was held yesterday afternoon but
not much was developed. The johbers, for
some reason, are very reticent about their
business. The glass agents have been try
ing 20 pump them with very LITTLE success.
One Of their objects is to establish rate on
yellowware and agree to maintain it, There
has been some talk of making a schedule of
prices on glass, and even forcing the manu-
1acturers to their terms. This is denied,
however, but very difficult job it would be.

Suffering Due to n Bank Failure,

A gentleman from Chicora registered at
the Seventh Avenue Hotel last evening. He
says the failure of the Butler County Bank
at that place has had depressing effect on
the oil market, and number of poor people
suffering. The loss is about $4,000. The
bank is owned by A. J. Hoyt. The failure
occurred about five months ago, but his
creditors gave him an extension. He was to
pay 25 cents on the dollar in four payments.
Mr.. Hoyt met the first one all right, but he
was unable to meet the second payment
which came due a few days since. An as
si%nment was then made to Francis Murphy,
and appraisers were then appointed. The
latter went over the books yesterday, and
they think the assets will be sufficient to
pay 90 cents on the dollar. Mr.. Hoyt has

The S1ipmept or

Fifty cases of "Holmes' Best" and 25 bar
rels of 1886 Holmes Millsboro pure rye
whisky during the month of January to
London, England, by the VIM. II. Holmes
Co. is an excellent illustration of the fame
and popularity acquired by our Mononga-
hela Valley pure rye whiskles. In prepar-
ing the Holmes Best for shipments of this
kind every case is carefully packed by an
ingenious packer patented by Mr.. Holmes
some years since and used exclusively by
this house. Since using this packer,
in the past five years, not a sim
gle bottle has been broken. Another
precaution in long distance shipments used
by this firm only, is securely fastening each
corner of the box by steel clamps and affix-
ing iron handles to each end of the case,
thereby making the same easy to handle
and thus greatly helping to assure safe de-
livery of same at destination. Holmes
Best is too valuable whisky to take any
chances on for breakage, therefore all these
precautions are taken and the value of these
precautionary measures are shown daily in
the large shipments of "Holmes' Best all
over the country, from Maine to California.

a COMMITTEE TO INVESTIGATE,
The Action Taken by a Large South side
Suggestion Meeting

The citizens of the Twenty-sfxth ward.
Southside, held suggestion meeting last
night in Turner'S Hall, Jane street, to place
a ticket in the field for the various ward
offices, irrespective of political lines About
800 were present. DR.. II. L. Reinicke pre-
sided, with George A. kambach as secretary
The president stated the object of the meet
ing was simply for the purpose of taking
steps to elect men to office who will admin
lister the city affairs in the interest of the
people. The name of the present incum-
bent, Daniel Brown, was presented for
Endorsement for Select Council but owing
to little dissatisfaction it was
agreed that n committee of three be ap-
pointed to inquire into the official record
made by him during the time he has repre-
sented the ward in Select Council 1t was
decided that no nomination for Select Ooun-
Gil be made until the committee made its re-
port at the next meeting. The committee
appointed was: Harry Sleggert, John g.

DEATH OF A BOLD RACCoON.
t May Have Escaped From the Menagerie
at Schenley Park.

A raccoon racked into the barnyard OF a
man named Tully on the divide between
Moon and Montour runs on saturday and
came up to two men who were standing in
the yard. The animal made mouths at them
and they were unable to determine whether
the facial manifestations were those of
friendship or menace. Mr.. Tully, who is not
up in American zoology, could not assign
the beast its place in the animal vocabulary,
but his companion solved the puzzle. As
they were not certain of the designs of the
visitor they concluded to kill it.
Since then reflection has convinced some
of the people that the coon was a tame one
and had escaped from Meningitis menage-
rie in Schenley Park. As there is no record
OF its having crossed on any of the bridges,
il is supposed to have crossed on the ice on
the Monongahela when the first pool froZe
one night last week. This Supposition is
strengthened by the fact that no one in Rob-
lnson township reports the loss OF a pet and
this coon showed no symptoms of abies.

APPEALS FROM THE COUNTRY.
The Protests From Five Townships Cor
sidered by the Commissioners

The Protests From Five Townships Con-
sidered by the Commissioners.
The County Commissioners yesterday
heard appeals from the assessments i'm
posed in Kilbuck, Lower st. Clair, Wilkins.
Bethel and Ross townships. The number of
appeals was small. In Lower st. Clair town.
ship, though the Commissioners, as the
Board of Revision, had made an increase of
20 per cent, there were not more than half A.
dozen appeals. In Kilbuck township the
assessors had raised Az per cent and the
board added 60 per cent. In Lower ST. Clair
the assessors moved up 10 $40 per cent and
the board added 20 per cent. In wilkins
township the assessors moved up 20 $40 per
cent and the board added 20 per cent more
Tie assessors of Bethel township only raised
one-fourth of l per cent. but the board
marked it o. X, as the figures were up to
the actual valuations. In Ross township
the assessors had moved up3 2-5 per cent
and the board added so per cent more Not.
withstandlng the increases by the Board of
Revision the number of appeals was small.
and none we're of special inheritance.
To-day appeals will be heard from the
three wards of Braddock borough
The Commissioners yesterday received
from County Solicitor Geyer an opinion as
to the case of the Fourteenth ward assess
ment, in which the ward assessors had laid
down, and no assessment has yet been com
pleted He said that no prosecutions couId
be made, the Commissioners having ac-
cepted the books, but new assessors could
be appointed to go over the work. This has
not yet been done, but will be in day or
two.

The Riot Case Postponed.

The hearing in the case of Frederick
Asche and George App, the two men charged
with riot by the Pittsburg, Allegheny and
Manchester Traction Company, was to have
taken place yesterday afternoon before
Magistrate Gripp. When the case was called
the plaintiffs failed to appear, as did also
App, one of the defendants. Some talk was
1ndulged in as to the dismissal of the case
but this could not be done without forfeit
ing Apps bail of $780, lT order to save Apps
Dondsman the case was postponed until this
afternoon, when it is thought it will be dis
missed The friends of the men claim that
would not be satisfactory and suits for dam
ages may result.
