sUBPoENAs ON THE soUrHsIDE.
Excitement Caused by n Report That Depu-
ties Were Wanted.

Excitement Caused by n Report That Depu-
ties Were Wanted.
Rumor had it on the Southside last even
ing that subpenas were being issued by Al
derman Succop, and that many persons
would be required to serve as deputies at
Homestead Late in the evening, when the
report had gained circulation, it was the
general subject of conversation. Little
knots of men were collected on the cor
ners earnestly discussing the matter and
expressing themselves in decidedly emphatic
language From the general tone OF the
sentiment expressed such a move would be
met with resistance, many claiming they
would serve term before serving as dep
uties against their fellows at Homestead.
Alderman Succop was seen, and on the
subject being mentioned said: 'If men are
being subpenaed on the Southside I know
nothing of it. But think can tell you how
that report gained circulation. This is the
last day notices can be served on delinquent
taxpayers and all the constables on this side
have been busy making them out. This has
been noticed and gave color to such rumor.
To judge from the general opinions heard I
think the Southside the wrong place to
come for deputies, as the people here are
nearly all in sympathy with the strikers"

DOWN ON FESTIVALS.

A Christian Endeavor Delegate Strikes an
Unpopular Chord-The Convention VIII
Probably Commit Itself on tho Worlds
Fair Sunday Opening Question.
NEW YORK. July 9.-When the third
days session of the Christian Endeavor
Convention began at $50 o'clock this morn
ing, more than 5000 delegates were pres
ent. The meeting lasted nearly an hour,
and after it was over the delegates marched
out singing psalms and hymns. They went
to their hotels and boarding houses to eat
breakfast and get ready for the regular ses-
sion, which began at 9 O'Clock.
It was few minutes after o'clock when
President Clark opened the session. The
report of the Committee on Nominations
for Vice Presidents was read by Rev. DR..
Henry W. Sherwood, of New York, and
adopted, the Vice Presidents are the only
officers the Committee has power to nomin-
ate, as the others are elected by the trustees
of the United Society.
r. s. Murphy, of Philadelphia, spoke on
"Proportionate Giving to God" Mr.. Muir
phys ideas were not all received with
unanimous favor, as he struck blow at
that institution dear to the heart of. every
Sunday school teacher, the strawberry festi-
val He said every person should give at
least tenth of his property to the Lord.
Rev. Leroy S. Bean, of Gorham, Me-,
then delivered an address on Systematic
Giving to God" An "open meeting" was
conducted by Robert E. Speer, OF New
York City, for As minutes. Different dele
gates arose and told what their societies
were doing for missions.
The report OF the Board of Directors re-
garding the place for the convention of 1894
was presented by Rev. N. Boynton, Of
Boston. Three invitations were received,
from San Francisco, Denver and Cleveland,
and the latter city was recommended. Loud
cheering followed, and the whole Cleveland
contingent started up their "rally song,"
Cleveland, '94," to the tune of ''Bring-
ing in the Sheaves." Denver and San
Francisco delegates joined in the chorus.
Rev. H. H. Spooner, at a meeting Of
Christian Endeavor delegates this after
noon, introduced a resolution opposing the
opening of the Worlds Fair on Sunday, on
the ground that large number of people,
especially those that adhere to the biblical
code of morals, will be prevented from at.
tendingthe Worlds Fair. 1t was carried
by a large majority, who were in favor of
6isregarding the advice of the Board of
TruStees. DR.. Grose, of the United Society,
advised the meeting not to commit them
selves oG.cially.

CENSURED A DEPUTY.
He Turns Over a Little Boy, Whose
Possession Is in Dispute,
WITHOUT AN ORDER FROM COURT.
Mrs. Mary Gilroy Demands Her Share Of q
Valuable Estate.
NEWS FROM THE TEMPLE OF JUSTICE

A hearing was to have been had yester-
day morning before Judge Ewing in the
habeas corpus proceedings brought by j. II.
Turner to recover his 10-year-old son from
Benjamin Martin, of Federal street, Alle-
gheny. When the case was called, how
ever, an odd condition OF affairs was re-
vealed. Martin, who is relative of Tur-
ner and had been keeping the boy for q
year, had become attached to him and re-
fused to let his father have him. He was
present, with all the witnesses, but.
Turner and the boy were absent.
It was then developed that Deputy
Sheriff Robert Baxter, who had served the
writ on Martin, took the child away with
him and gave him to his father, Turner. The
latter then left the city with the boy.
Judge Ewing severly censured the deputy
and Turner for their actions and at once
issued an attachment for the arrest of
Turner for contempt of court. In the mean.
while the case was necessarily suspended
for time.

INSTRUMENTS BURNED.

Electric Wires Set Fire to the Attic OF tho
Federal Street Depot-Dinaculs Work
for the Firemep-Loss $4,000.
The Federal street depot of the Pennsyl-
vania Company, in Allegheny, suffered
severely by fire yesterday afternoon at 4
o'clock Two large cables of telegraph
wires and several electric light wires enter
the attic of the building near the southwest
corner. The fire was caused by electricity,
the insulating material having been worn
of, and the current setting fire to the wood
work where the wires entered.
The attic is divided into half . dozen
rooms, which are low and small. Some Of
them are used for the storing OF old docu-
ments, another is an operating room, and in
another great deal of valuable telegraphic
apparatus was stored. It was in this room
that the fire originated. Two operators who
were in an adjoining room were warned BY
the smoke, and they discovered the wall
and part Of. the roof on fire. They hurried
down stairs and sounded the alarm, and the
fire bureau soon responded.
When the fremen reached the scene
heavy smoke was pouring out Of all the
attic windows and from under the caves Of
the roof. Several men OF No, company
assembled the crooked and narrow stairs
with Babcock extinguishcr, but the
attic was so full of smoke that
they could not reach the fire, which was in
the room farthest from the stairs They
made their way to the Federal street win
dows for air, but even there they were al
most suffocated before ladder was run up
to them. ~
Truck A lifted large extension ladder.
1t was very slow work, and when it was up
it was not used. The fire was q very hard
one to get at, and the fremen we're finally
compelled to get to the roof and cut a large
hole right over the fire. Through this two
lines of hose were run, ard the attic was
flooded. After the fire was, reached it was
soon extinguished.
The chief loss is in telegraphic instru-
ments. About, two dozen OF them we're
ruined. and other valuable apparatus was
spoiled, including tables, swilsc boards,
battrri s.,. etc The to.al I0ss will reach
nearly $4,000. The ceilings of the Offices
on the second floor were penetrated and
ruined by water. The clerks threw some of
their books out of the windowR The loss
is fully insured.
The Manchester cars were stopped for
about bn hour, and the railroad trains were
blocked for almost as long as the hose was
laid across the tracks. During the excite
ment q man in the depot was robbed of his
pocketbook, containing about $50.

A Child in Anee heny Makes Burglars Drop
Their Plumber.
Last Sunday evening about o'clock two
men, wearing masks, effected an entrance
into the house of Samuel Marshall, on
Willis street, Nunnery Hill. They secured
from a bureau drawer watch, several
pieces of jewelry and little money. In
the house at the time was
a 12-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, and
four young children. The children
were asleep, the father and mother and one
of the children being at church. Elizabeth
heard the noise of the men at the kitchen
and ran quietly upstairs, where she found
her fathers revolver. When she came
down the two men were in the dining room.
She bravely ordered them to drop the plum
der and told them to leave the house or she
would shoot them The men laid the
jewelry on a table and ran from the house.

ALDERMAN RoHE REVERSED.

He Judged . Case That Belonged to the
Criminal Court.
A hearing was had before Judge Ewing
yesterday in the habeas corpus proceedings

lease from Jail Kroeger had been arrested
on charge of assault and battery, preferred
against him before Alderman Rohe. At
the hearing the Alderman decided the case
and committed Kroeger to Jail for ten
days.
As it was court case and the Alderman
had no authority to impose penalty the
commitment was illegal and Kroeger was
discharged by the Court.
