WABHBUM & HOUN ABE EXCLUDED

William J. Lewis, proprietor of lhe(Lewis block, yesterday care an option tothe Federal Steel Company for the wholeeighth floor of his building, corner Smith-fiel- d

street and Sixth avenue. The FederalSteel Company is the new Barb Wire Trustwhich was organized in this eity over twoweeks ago. The fact that they asked for anoption on the rooms indicates that they willaiakelhis city the general headquarters ofthe combination, and will locate their office

here. The work on the organization of thesyndicate is still progressing, and a meetingwill nrobably be held within the next twoveeks. A coherence was held in Chicagolast week, and a number of details aboutthe organization of the conmany completed.

On Saturday, October 19, The Dispatchexclusively published an acconut of a threedays' meeting of a number of barb wireand wire nail manufacturers from all overihe country in this city. It was known atthe time that a company was to be formed'to purchase the large plants in the United.States and run tbem under one manage-fe- n

est.KEPT THE SCHEME QUIET.

At the solicitation of those engaged in theformation of the company nothing was saidabout the gigantic combination. Thescheme was written up as a kind of anagreement to advance the price nf finishedproduct so as to enable the manufacturers totoate a small margin of profit. No perma-nent organization was formed at thetime. It was given out by thosewho were interested in the matterihat the publication would interfere 'withthe completion of the organization, and forthat reason it was not described as a combi-nation. Since then the syndicate has so farprogressed that the details can be givenout

The Oliver & Eoberts Wire Company, ofthis city, Carnegie, Phipps & Co., ot Beaverrails, the Gantier Steel Department atJohnstown and the Braddock Wire Com-

pany at Braddock are now engaged intaking stock in their plants preparatory toselling out to the new combination. Thelatter will be known as the Federal SteelCompany and will be a chartered corpora-lio- n.

A IfEW JEESET CHABTEB.

It is proposed to have it chartered eitherbinder the lawstif New Jersey or Illinois,hut this point has not yet been settled.Some of those forming the company say thelaws of Illinois will give them greater

than any other State, while othershold a New Jersey charter would be thehest. la conversation with George T. Oliveryesterday the gentleman stated that theyhad pnt a price upon their plant and wonidturn it over to the new company. Theplan of the latter is to pay either in cash orstock for every large wire mill in the coun-try they wish to control. The Pittsburgconcern will go in and take stock in thecompany. Some of the stockholders who donot favor the combination will be paid cashfor what they now own in the companies.

As soon as permanent officers are electedthe 'company will open offices in this city,and the clerical forces in the other officeswill be dispensed with. This matter ofeconomy was the chief cause of the lorma-tio- n

of the combination. It is very prob-able that John W. Gates, of St. Louis, VicePresident of the Braddock Wire Company,

"will be the president.THE TLAUS IX DETAIL.

In speaking of the matter yesterday, Mr.George Oliver was loath to give the real na-

ture of the combination. When asked if itwas not true that he and others in this

jTicmity were taking stock to sell out totthe Federal Steel Company, he said:f "Yes, it is true that there is a scheme onfoot to buy up all the large wire plants in

tthe country tor the purpose of combiningthe bnsiness and thjs reduce expenses. Wehave gone so far as to place a valuation onour mills and will be paid in cash, or welean take stock in the general concern. Thenew company for which there will be a'charter issued in a few days will buy out-right any large concern in the UnitedStates wich may be thought advisable topurchase. It is not intended to have all thewire manufacturers in the company, and forthat reason a number of the small concernswill he left out. There is sufficient capital

(behind the scheme to buy up all the mills inihe country if necessary. There will be noeffort made to squeeze anybody out of thebusiness.

NOT FORCIXG ANYBODY.''Those who do not wish to come in can go

Along doing business as usual, and we willSot meddle with them. It is not our inten-tion to build up a monopoly, but find thatit is to the best interest of the bnsiness to gointo the combination. When the subjectwas first broached to our company we re-

fused to go in. We were afterward con-vinced that it wonld pay us to do so and arenow ready to sell out. We were averse tojroing into any pool. The others showedthat it was to our advantage, and as it is astraight business transaction we are goingin. I do sot know anything about theother plants about here, but think they willalso join."

"Will Washburn & Moen, the large con-

cern Iiat fought everybody about infringingtheir, patent, be in the new company?" wasasked.

"2Jo. Tbey were not asked to come in.It was the intention to confine the combina-tion to Western companies. The concernyou mention is in Massachusetts. No, it isnot yet settled what the capital stock willhe, but it will run into millions. A confer-ence was held in Chicago last week, but thiswas not determined.

HEADQTTABTEBS HEBE.

"I do not know whether the headquartersof the company will be here or not, and do notcare to speculate on the matter. It is a littlepremature to sayjthat they will be in thiscitv, hut I think it would be advantageousto locate their officers here. Since the firstmeeting was held prices have stiffened con-

siderably, but the advance in the price ofbillets was the main cause."

From another source it was learned thatthere was considerable opposition to the newcompany, and there is a strong probabilitythat the manufacturers will also form acombination to compete with the large millowners. It was stated that Washburn &Moen would go in with the others and tryto break the Federal company. The smallproducers of wire and nails who were nottaken in the large combination expect thatthey will be forced to sell their plants tothe big concern. It is also understood thatthe latter have offered them what they con-eid- er

a low price for their works.This has been refused and the ownersthink that sooner or later they willhave to accept them. To offset the effect ofthe Federal combination the small manu-

facturers bave.taken the initial steps toform a combined company of their own.tIi.t have pone so far as to make an offer to

i' two large Bessemer manufacturers for thelatter to Dnua a pianu iacj wiroi uthe product of the mills to be used to make

irire for some years.ALABMINQ THE TAKMEBS.

They Jailed in this and now express an'Intention and their ability to wort up such

a granger sentiment throughout the countryas will secure a reduction in the tariff onwire rods at the next session of Congress,and thus defeat the aims of the syndicate tomonopolize the barb wire business of thecountry. They cite the results of their effortsin 1883, when they had the duty on wirerods reduced by "working" the Westernfarmers. Such a large reduction was thenmade that they claim they can do it again.

The latter information was obtained froma Western jobber who was in the city yester-day. He said if the new Federal svndicatewent through there would be a big tarifffight in the West. The farmers will bemade to believe that the syndicate will forcethe price of "wire up, and they would haveto pay it or do without this kind of fencing.The builders who use wire nails wonld alsoalso be asked to work against it The job-ber stated that if the tariff agitation wasstarted, the Republican representativesfrom the West could not stop it.

There is in the neighborhood of 200,000tons of barbed wire manufactured annually.It is worth about $75 pe? ton.

THE SCHENEEI PARK.t

Prices of Adjacent Oakland PropertyIncreased 250 Per.Cent.

MR. CARNAHAK'S HASTI FLIGHT.

Tbe Taxes Must ba Raised One Mill to Pay

for the Property;

CHIEF BIGELOW'S INDIVIDUAL TBU8T

The Schenley Park, as announced in theSunday Dispatch, is nowan assured fact.Mrs. Schenley last Saturday signed a deedof gift of 300 acres of her property to thecity for park purposes, and coupled with itan offer to sell another 100 acres at $1,250 peracre. This property is to-d- regarded asworth nearly $6,000 per acre. ControllerMorrow and Chief Bigelow agree in sayingthat the prices of property in the locality ofthe proposed park have increased 250 percent since the announcement of the gilt hasbeen made.

The gill and sale of the property leavesMrs. Schenley without a lot in the Twentjr-secon- d

ward, where the park is principallylocated. Her offer at the price stated hasbeen outbid several times by individuals.The whole tract will cover 415 acres, andthe condition under which she offers theground to the city at $1,250 do not includecompetition from any other buyer.

Controller Morrow said yesterday after-noon: "I'd like to see you purchase anyproperty in the Twenty-secon- d ward justnow. You might have had it last week,but to-d- it takes capital to get theground."

Chief Bigelow, of the Department ofPublic Works, was naturally jubilant overthe snecess of his pet scheme. He said:"This has been the dream of my life and isat last a reality. The park will be estab-lished, ana there is not the slightest doubtthat tbe necessary appropriations will bemade. The park will be within easy accessof the city by the cable cars, and its naturaladvantages I have already spoken of. Themain entrance will be nearly opposite tbeBcllefield church, aud 120 feet wide. I amdecidedly now a woman's rights man, as tbefirst move made for the beautifying of thecity is made by a woman."

TAXES MUST BE EAISED.

The purchase money must be raised bydirect taxation, a mill "added to the regulartaxes being sufficient, in the opinion ofChief Bigelow and Controller Morrow, toraise the necessary amount. The money canbe paid either in mstallments'or iu cash, asthe eity chooses. Both the above mentionedofficials think it would be much better topay spot cash.

The first work that can be done towardimproving the park will be, after the cityhas closed np the agreement, the employ-ment of surveyors to get an accurate knowl-edge- of

the topography of the land so thatplans for laying it oat, constructing paths,roadways and other improvements can beformulated. Until this is done it will beimpossible to sav what plans will be carriedour, or how much money will be requiredto improve the park.

Mr. Bigelow was asked if it was not prob-able that some public spirited citizensmight not take sufficient pride in the cityand her new park to contribute somethingtoward its improvement. Some iron manu-facturer, iFwas suggested, might offer to pntup a neat iron feuce about the park. Hethought not, nnd referred to his formeropinion that the ladies took the lead inPittsbnrg progress.

SAT THESE WAS SO JOB.

Mr. Bigelow said that Mrs. Schenley hadreceived over CO letters from Pittsburgpeople advising her and urging her not togive the property to the city. Among thenumerous reasons offered for their oppo-sition, some of these people wrote Mrs.Schenley that the city officials, intimatingMr. Bigelow particularly, had propertynear to the proposed park, which they weretrying to realize on at her expense. Thatwas why they took snch a deep interest inthe scheme. Mr. Bigelow said" that, as faras that statement was concerned, he doesnot own a foot of ground anywhere nearenough to the park to be influenced by itslocation, nor did be know of any other cityofficial who did. The property around thepark had increased in value, however, fully250 per cent since the time the SchenleyPark matter was first agitated. He knewof one tract of 20 acres in that neighborhoodthat had gone begging before that for$20,000, but for which the owner declined565,000 a few days ago.

Mr Bigelow said further that property inthe city everywhere was advancing rapidlyin value, to prove which and to show howeasy it would be for him to clear a nice bigsnm himself, he said he had purchased lorthe city last summer a few acres of land forwhich he paid 530,000. There was no moneyin the Citv Treasury to buy this land, so hepnt it up himself until the city is ready tosupply it. Since making the purchase hehas refused offers of $120,000 tor that sameland, and could have taken it too withoutany breach of honesty, but there would havebeen a howl about jobs if he had. Theproperty is still where the city can have itwhen she pays what it was bought Tor.

ANOTHER MAN IHWAKTED.Mr. Bigelow, who mar be regarded aa the

father of the park projects in Pittsburg,was so deeply interested in the perfection oftbe scheme that when he learned anotherperson, representing interested parties inPittsbnrg, had started for Europe to dis-suade Mrs. Schenley from her generous in-

tentions he at once notified Mr. Carnahan.This was at midnight, and Mr. Carnahancaught the 3 A. M. train for the East, get-

ting the Etruria, the same vessel which theopposition's representative sailed upon.

It was a rather remarkable fact that Mr.Bigelow received on the next morning acablegram from Mrs. Schenley telling v himto hold all negotiations off for tbe present.To this he replied at a cost of $5 75, sayinghe had no chance to make any arrangementsas Mr. Carnahan was then on the ocean.The prompt action of the Chief of the De-

partment of Public Works is regarded as allthat saved the park for Pittsburg againsthe work of people wh j aiwagood chance to

invest a little money and tried to make useof it. Mr. Carnahan returned from Europelast Saturday evening and he feels as goodover the successful outcome of his visit asChief Bigelow does.

Last night Constable Altmyer, of LowerSt. Clair Township, appeared attheXwenty-eight- h

ward lockup, having in charge aprisoner whose hands he had so tightlyhandcuffed in front of him that the skin hadbeen torn from his wrists. The constablestated the man had been arrested for dis-orderly conduct and he wanted him lockedup. Inspector McKelvv, who was at thelockup, was so incensed at the manner inwhich the prisoner had been handcuffedthat he ordered the constable out ot the sta-tion and informed him if he did not gohe would lock up both of them. ConstableAltmyer thereupon departed with his pris-oner, vowing that heTvould release him andhold the Inspector responsible.

THE TELLTALE PHOTOGRAPH.

A LawrcnceTllle Woman Thinks Her Hus-band Has Eloped.

Yesterday afternoon a woman, who gaveher name as Mrs. Annie Dunmeyer, of le,

called upon Agent Dean, of theHumane Society, and related to him thather husband had run away from her withanother woman. The story of the elopementis as follows: About three weeks ago Jo-seph Dunmeyer, who had been in this coun-try about three years, told his wife that hebad lost his position with a certain bakerfor whom he had been working. He saidhe desired to go to Dixmont to seek work.Before he left the fatal photographwas discovered She drew from hiscoat pocket, while he was sleeping, thephotograph of a pretty woman. When heawoke she upbraided him for his stray love,and he denied the charge. He demandedthe picture, which his wife refused to furnish.According to the story told to Agent Deanby Mrs. Dunmeyer, her hnsband thereuponassaulted her and forcibly tore the photo-graph from her. Last Tuesday Mr. Dun-meyer told his wife that he was going toDixmont to look for work. She has notheard from him since, and is living uponthe charity of the neighbors. She believesthat he has gone to Bochester, where thepicture which she found was taken, and haseloped with a Bochester woman.

Mr. Dean is totally at a lots what actionto take. The deserted wife, who has appliedto him, is left absolutely destitute. She hastwo children, one 21 and the other 2 monthsold. Mrs. Dunmeyer has been in theUnited States only about 12 mouths, andcannot talk a word of English.

MISS WOLFE SUSTAINED.

There U No High School Class at tbe Spring,field This Year.

Miss Wolfe, the teacher in the Springfieldschool, has been sustained by the directors.They have made a thorough investigationand found that there is no material in theschool this year for a high school class.The residents of the ward are principallyworking people. When their childrenreach the age of 14 or 15 years they are, asa rule, withdrawn from school and com-pelled to work.

Tired Eyes.We often hear people speak of their eyes

getting tired, as though the retina or nervethat takes the picture does the Seeing wasfatigued. Such is not the case. The retinaseldom tires. The power of seeing clearlyat different distances is called accommoda-tion. This is effected by the action of thecilliary muscle upon the lens which it sur-rounds. When tbe sight is fixed at a dis-tance, say 20 feet, it is nt rest; when we lookat objects say one foot the muscle hasgrasped the lens around its edge, nnd bythis pressure made it thicker, so as to con-verge the rays of light on the retina, whichwould without this action have fallen

the retina.The more necessity there is for this accom-

modating effort, cither irom naturally far,or mixed sight, or by increased age, whichhardens the lens, or contiuuous use over-work, or feeble health the harder themuscle has to work to keep the sight satis-factory, and hence the "tired eyes." Glassesare the only remedy, the proper adjustmentof which is a science, and those who valuetheir eyes at their real .worth, appreciate theservices of those who' have mastered thesubject as has Dr. Sadler, 804 Penn avenue.

Successful Experiment Tried in tbeMacbeth Glass-Hons- e.

MIXIflG Alfi WITH KAT0EAL GAS.

A Kew Field for the Supply of Ore

Under Consideration.

MAKING POSSIBLE A CUT HWEIGHT8.

TAn experiment was tried in George A.

MacBeth's chimney factory on the South-sid- eyesterday, which is of very great im-

portance tp manufacturers who use naturalgas. If subsequent trials are as satisfactory,something is promised in the way of savinggas, which will put the meter system in thesbadeand save shut-dow- in mills andfactories when the pressure is low.

The new invention is very simple. Itconsists of nothing more than the combina-tion of air with the gas as it issues from theburner, aud bv this combination using aheavy percentage of the oxygen which enterslargelj into the constituency of air. Theexperiment made was with a small, revolv-ing fan on the same shaft that runs theother machinery. A pipe from this con-nected from beneath with a glory hole andran up to the center of the burner. Hereto-fore it has required the valve wheel on thegas supply pipe to be turned once and ahalf around to supply enough pres-sure for the glory hole, but yesterdaywhen the air waB turned on the wheel onlyrequired to be moved one-four- th of an inch.The usual pressure to a glory hole is oneounce, while yesterday the pressure was avery small fraction of this amount.

Mr. William Boot, paymaster for thefirm, who is the iqventor or discoverer ofthis new saving process, said that by put-ting the air in all the burners the pressurein the factory could be reduced to threeounces where 16 to 20 are now required.To-da- y further experiments are to be madeand the air supplied to other glory holes andfurnaces.

Before putting the process in practice andfitting up their factory the firm will see thePhiladelphia Company and try to obtain areduction in gas bills according to theamount used. Mr. Boot could not be seenlast night, but it is understood that be al-

ready has a patent on the process which pre-vents others from trying it without his. con-sent.

If it is a success the value of the inventioncan readily be seen by all manufacturers, asthe cost of a fan and the fittings necessary tosnpply the air to the burners would be verycheap and easy to put in. The saving in gas,if anywhere near that predicted, wouldpractically settle the question of shortageand inadequate supply.

ORE FROM NEW YORK.

A Company to Bring: it Here Valuable lts

on the New York Central It MayDisplace Lake Superior Ore.

The increase in the. iron business aroundPittsbnrg was never better exemplified thanin a meeting held yesterday in H. E. Collins'office, Lewis block, of capitalists to considerthe best means of getting magnetic ore tothe furnaces at the least possible cost. Asthe railroads, it was said, generally havediscriminated against Pittsburg in tbe mat-ter of Treights until Andrew Carnegie madebis attack on them, the principal subject ofdiscussion yesterday was to secure someeompetition.

This is to be afforded by the company op-erating the Benson Iron Ore Mines atCarthage, N. Y. The company claims tohave an iron ore vein exposed, 10,000 feetin length and from 5,000 to 6,000 feet inwidth. It is regarded as the greatest de-posit of magnetic iron ore in tbe world.The niost important point, however, in dis-cussion was the question of freights, whichcoming over the Lake Erie, Eoad, would, ifthe arrangements contemplated could becompleted, set the ore down in Pittsbnrgcneaper tnin it could be brought iromLake Superior, and of fully as good a qual-ity. The ore in the Carthage district isof a heavy, red character, very soft andfully as good in the opinion of experts asthat from tbe Lake Superior district. Theobject in forming the Pittsburg company isapparently to save on freights by gettingthe shipments over the New York Central,Lake Shore and Lake Erie lines, thus form-ing a competitive run with the Pennsyl-vania system. This is the first time an efforthas been made to place New York oro onthe Pittsburg market, and will be narrowlywatched by the furnace men who have longcontracts ahead.

NO HURRY TO ADTANCE BATES.

The Western Associations to Meet andDecide TJpoo Future Rates.

The Pittsburg Window Glass Manufac-turers' Association held its usual weeklymeeting at the office oi E. C. Schmertz &Co., First avenue, yesterday afternoon.The attendance was small. It was said by agentleman present that no decision was ar-rived at vrith regard to advancing the priceof the product on a level with the last ratesmade by the Cbambers-McKe- e Company.It was stated that a meeting of the associa-tion and the Western Window Glass Manu-facturers' Association would he called toassemble in about two weeks' time to con-sider the advisability of a further advance.

Mr. William Loeffler said that the condi-tion of the trade warranted an advance, andthateven with an additional increase, priceswould be lower than they were last winter.Mr. Thomas Wightman was of opinion thata further advance would not injure themarket, and gave it as his belief that verymany manufacturers had sold three monthsahead, whereby, as far as their present busi-ness was concerned, the advance in ratesaffected them to a very small extent.

THE HOLDERS' TROUBLE OYER.

Thirty Founders Hnve Yielded to the Dr.mnnds for Increased Wages.

Four other founders yesterday concededthe demand ot their molders for an increaseof 10 per cent. They are: Mackintosh,Hemphill & Co., whose men will likely go-

to work on Wednesday should the damageoccasioned by the late explosion be repaired;Sterrit & Thomas, the Pittsbnrg FoundryCompany and the McKeesport MachineCompany. H. T. Porter & Co., locomotivebuilders of Lawrenceville, are likely tosign y, as are one or two others. Themolders who worked in Einzer & Jones'foundry turned in yesterday morning, thefirm having signed the scale, but were notpermitted to work. One of the firm saidthat he no longer had use for all of them.He declared his intention of picking hismen in the future.

Some 28 firms have so far conceded the de-

mand of their men, and the strike is regard-ed as virtually over. Another firm expectedto sign to-d- is the Pittsburg Manufactur-ing Company. The most prominent firmsstill holding out are Jones &Laughlins andthe Oliver Iron and Steel Company.

MORE IRON RATES ADTANCE.

The Volley Fnrnnce Men Will Also Have toftnnd Tbctr Share.

Tbe Youngstown Freight Committee, com-

posed of representatives from the railroadsrunning through the Mahoning and Shenan-doah valleys, wjll hold a meeting y atCleveland, O., to take action on the lateadvance in iron rates. Tbe new rates werepublished in The Dispatch on Saturdaylast.

Down With Scarlet Fever.Members of labor organizations, and

miners in particular, will regret to hear thatGeorge Harris, of the Miners'Association, has just burled one of his sons.

Fred, aged 5 yean, who succumbed to asattack of scarlet fever. Four other of Mr.Harris' children are suffering from the samedisease, and many letters' of condolence andsympathy daily reach him at his home inBeynoldsville.

MINERS WANT AN INCREASE. "

If Not Granted, tbe Demand Hay Result Is aGeneral Strike.

Several miners who were in the city yes-terd- ar

reported that .Stone's McKeesportminers had preferred a demand for an addi-tional cent on the present rate, or a snm of 3cents per bushel. The firm was to havegiven an answer yesterday, but it had notbeen heard irom. A similar demand hasbeen made by Joseph Walton Ss Co.'s WestElizabeth miners, whose present rate ia2J cents. It is thought a general strikemay ensue if tbe increase is not granted.

MINISTERS 8TILL UNITED.

The Evangelical Ministerial Association. NotYet Disbanded.

The Evangelical Ministerial Assoeiatlonmet yesterday afternoon in the Y. M. C. A.building, and discussed the advisability ofdissolving the association. After prayerthe minutes of. the last meeting were read.Dr. Felton read a paper on "MinisterialVisiting:" After comments were madeupon the paper, the question of dissolutionwas taken np.

Dr. Felton favored the continuance oftre association, even under some changes,as it would promote brotherly love amongthe ministers, and be a power in PittsburgProtestantism. Bev. J. W. Sproull saidthat if there was no more interest to be dis-played in the future than there had been inthe past, they had better disband. As theassociation stood it was a failure. Justhere Bev. I. N. Hays and Bev. Dr. Boylehad a short wordy war About whether ornot tbe association had ever been an auxil-iary of tbe National Evangelical Alliance.Dr. Hays said that it had not, but he wasin favor of making it such, and admittinglaymen as members.

Another minister thought that the asso-ciation was dead, and the best thing thatcould be done was to give it a decent burial.After more talk it was proposed that thelocal denominational societies give up theirmorning meetings one Monday in eachmonth, so that the various ministers couldattend the meetings of the Evangelical As-sociation. A motion was carried that threeministers, members of the association, heappointed from each denomination to seethe local societies in regard to the above,and another motion to make the time ofmeeting the last Monday in each month,except July, August and September, wascarried. This is looked upon by the minis-ters as a final attempt to save the associa-tion. After some fruitless talk as to the ad-visability of making tbe association abranch of tbe Evangelical Alliance, themeeting adjourned.

ALLEGHENY STREET CARS.

Difficulties In the M ay of m Control by aSyndicate.

Tbe Allegheny street railway pot is againbnbbling, and tbe air is filled with rumorsand counter rumors without number. Mr.J. W. Daliell, President of tbe TJhion Line,when asked if that line was to be sold to theAllegheny Traction Company, said:

"Not that I know of, and if it was, Ithink that I would be aware otthe fact. Otcourse, I expect that the road will be, intime, either a cable or an electric line, butwhich I cannot say. It depends altogetheron which system proves the best and cheap-est, hut for some time to come horses willfurnish our motive power."

Another gentleman, who is prominent instre'et railway circles and who is a stock-holder in the various roads, says that theAllegheny Traction Company, as it now ex-ists, is not much more than a charter. Itwas formed for the purpose ofgaining con-trol of the various Allegheny roads, andmaking cable roads of them, but it has, as?et, not accomplished its object, and irnot

to, as none of the lines canr be soldwithout tbe unanimous consent of the stock-holders. This consent, he says, will not begiven, and if any of the lower Alleghenylines change their motive power, the changewill be made under their present manage-ment.

HAS HE TW WIVES?

The Peculiar Case That is Agitatingthe Gossips of Baltimore.

A WIFE'S lETTE&S ONABSWERED.

Superintendent Jatveett Says His Servantis a Bigamist.

THE WIFE SUBSTANTIATES HER CLAIM.

The Tthirty-thir- d ward has been torn upfor some time over s case of alleged bigamy,the material portions of which ars thus re-

lated by Mr. J. W. Fawcett, Superintend-ent of the Pitisbnrg Harbor Company'slanding, above the Point bridge:

Eight years ago, last February, a youngman applied to Mr. Fawcett foremployment, and securing it, worked forMr. Fawcett until last Anril with.out any special incident occurring.For a long tine he kept companywith a girl in the Thirty-fourt- h ward, andmarried her on tbe 20th of last May, FatherMcxigne penorming tne ceremony, ilr.Fawcett was not satisfied with some phasesof the man's conduct. His name is SamuelKelly, and their business connection iceasedwhen he married the girl. Last month Mr.Fawcett got a letter from a woman in Balti-more, who said she was Kelly's wife. Somethree weeks ago, shortly before the receipt ot tne letter irom Baltimore.Kelly called at tbe Fawcett resi-dence, and, calling Mrs. Fawcett out.said he must go away. Mr. Fawcett boughthim a ticket to Baltimore and since thenthe girl he married has been missing. Somepeople think she has followed Kelly, whileothers indignantly deny it Mrs. Fawcettstates that she and her husband want to tellall they know and place themselves straighton the record.

A Z.ETTEB 7BOU HIS 'WIFE.'The following letter, which Fawcett read

to Kelly, seems to have precipitated his re-moval. It war written to Fawcett andKelly disappeared the day following:

Baltikobk, October 19, 18S9.Mr. Kelly:

Deab Sir I will take the time to write youthese few lines to let yon know that your sonand myself still live, and I want to know whatyou intend to do for your child. I bave sup- -

him eigbt years, and he is now a veryargeboyand it takes a great deal money to

support him. I sent a dispatch to yonr super-intendent, bnt received no answer. I wentto See your brother, and he told methe best thing I could do was to send a dis-patch, and I did so, which I have told yon. andnow I have taken tbe time and trouble to writeto you, and must receive an answer immedi-ately and let me know what you intend to do.Now, if yon don't send a answer as soon as pos-sible I will dispatch to tbe Cblet of Police, thenI will be sure tn receive a answer, as you haveneglected it Write immediately and obligeyour wife, Mfia. Lizznt Kelly.

P. 8. Direct Mrs. Lizzie Kelly. No. 1720Frederick avenue, Baltimore City, Md.

The Fawcett family, having taken an in-terest in Kellv were somewhat angered atthe turn affairs had taken. They expressedtheir opinionrof Ma somewhat freely andas this stirred up some of the people of theward to a great extent, there is

MUCH ANOKT DISCUSSION'.The Fawcetts decided to inquire into

the case more folly and have sincemaintained a considerable correspon-dence with the Baltimore woman.Mrs. Fawcett also states thatshe had an examination madeof the marriage license list of this countvand satisfied herself as to the proceedings atmis en a oi ins line, xo snostantiate herstory the Baltimore lady sent a record other marriage with Kelly at St. Thomas'Church, Woodbury.

Mr. Fawcettstatesthat he has heard thatKellv was in Baltimore and also that hewas fn Brooklyn. Its would not have saidanything about tbe matter publicly had itnot been that it became necessary for him-self ana wife to speak out in selfjustification.
