Sumptuous Repast at Pitts
burg Club Is Not Served.

Pittsburg, June 11.-AH was in readiness
for a sumptuous repast to be partaken
Of by some of the wealthiest and the
foremost citizens of Pittsburg tonight at
the exclusive Pittsburg Athletic Associa-
ton Clubhouse in Grant Boulevard. Men,
bers were seated at their respective ta-
bles, glanced with pride at the solid sill
yer table decorations, and inhaling the
breath Of sweet smelling flowers, inter-
mingled with delightful odors from the
modern and up-to-date kitchen.
Suddenly a murmur was heard, that
grew in intensity, and in rushed the
steward announcing that the sixty-nine
French Garcons, all in correct evening
dresses, had delivered an ultimatum for
more money or they would strike. The
demand for an increase, turned down,
strike they did, while the dinner was hot
and ready to be served.
A frantic search was made for strike
breakers and when they put in an ap-
pearance, the striking walters became
so threatening that the police were hur-
riedly called. The members left to seek
inner cheer some place else.

Another hitch in the proposed exten-
sion Of the double track system to Con-
gress Heights has held up the order for
this work to progress, and committee
of the public improvement association
Of Congress Heights is now investigating
this matter, with a view OF having II
remedied. The railway company is ready
to start this work as soon as q permit
is received from the Commissioners, but
the latter are holding up the issuance of
this permit because the company will not
agree to pave the roadway three feet
on either side Of its tracks. The law
calls for only two feet, but the Commits
sioners want them to pave for distance
OF three feet 1t is probable, however,
that these differences will be settled in
the near future, and work started.

DUCHESS TO QUIT ENGLAND.

Marble House mt Newport Being
Prepared for Occupancy.

London, June 1.-THE news that Mar
Bile House, at Newport. r.. l., once
the, home OF the w. X. Vanderbilts
and now owned by Mrs. o. H. p.
Belmont, is being prepared for occu-
nancy this summer gives her friends
here the belief that the Duchess of Marl-
borough is to quit England and make
her permanent home In her native coun-
try.
There Is ample ground for this belief,
snd especially that the coming corona
ton ceremonies will advertise and en-
phasize the fact that the duchess is ex-
cluded from the court Of King George
and Queen Mary.
