THE PITTSBtrRG DISPATCH. THURSDAY, .AUGUST 4 '1832. 9 CHOLERA D IT Since the Departure of Eus sian Troops to Painir " ftotEnousliAreNow LEFT TO PEESERYE ORDER. The Insurrection, Which Is Spread ing, Due Partly to Religion. ONE DEATH IN ST. PETERSBURG. The Failing of Colnmbns From Talos re produced in That fort. COKEIGAX TAKES TOE FOPE TO TASK St Petersburg, Aug. 3. One death lias occurred here from Asiatic cholera. At Nijni Xovgorod the disease is decreas ing and many of the workmen who fled in fright when the epidemic was at its height are returning to their homes The attend ance at the fair which is held annually at Uijni Novgorod has been very small.owing to the dread of the disease by all class's. Cholera has appeared in the Government of Kurska, in the southern part of Euro pean Kusia. It is the most densely pop ulated of any government of Russia, hav ing an area ot 17,32 square miles and a population of about 2,."K)0,000. The surface is very fertile and is nearly all occupied in agriculture. The epidemic continues to increase in Asiatic Russia. In Toholisk, the westernmost Government of Russia, embracing all its width from the Central Asiatic provinces to the Arctic Ocean, 59 new cases and 39 deaths were reported on the 1st inst. Alter the suppression of the riots in Tashkcnd several thousand insurgent Sarts fled from the city and tried to cross the province of Syr-Daria in Ferghuna, but were repulsed by the local troops. The in surrection hat spread to Ferghan, and the position of the Russians there is critical, as thev do not possess sufficient men to cope with the insurgents, part of their forces having gone to the Pamir. The Governor General of Turkestan re fuses to send reinforcements to Fersrhana,as there are fears for the security ot Tashkend, I where the Moslems threaten to revolt. It has transpired that the Tashkend riots were not due solely to cholera, but that they were partly du to religious excite ment caused by orders Irom the Governor interfering with rights in the mosques. In consequence of the prevalence of chol era in Russia ths Ministry of Education jhas issued an order that all schools in the country shall remain closed until Septem Jber 1. The course of medical lectures in Ithis city will be suspended until November 11, that the students betore whom they are to J be delivered may be enabled to assist in combating the scourge in the infected dis Itncts. I A dispach from Berlin says: The issue ot f passports Irom Breslau and other frontier I places to Russian Poland has been restricted on account of the prevalence ot cholera in J Russia. The entry of Russian workmen , has been forbidden and Russian barges ply ing on the river Wartha are rigidly over hauled.

The ex-President of Venezuela, Dr. Raimundo Andueza Palacio, 'is still in Paris, accompanied by his family and a few friends. He has been iurther in terviewed at the Hotel Malesherbes, where he is staying, in regard to his course in Venezuela. He said: I liavo been most unjustly slandered by those who do not know me personally and are hut ill acquainted with my acts as Presi dent of Venezuela. Nearly all rulers orpeo plo have to bear a great deal -of this, but in my cae it has exceeded the measure. I have been put down as a man devoid of self respect, a gambler and a tlilef.

Farnellltes Allego Undue Priestly Influence Against Davitt and Fullam. Dublin, Aug. a At a meeting of lead ing members ot the Parnellite party in this city to-day, it was agreed that a petition be issued protesting against the return of Michael Davitt and Patrick Fullam, Anti Farnellites, to the House of Commons from the Uorth and South divisions of Heath, respectively. This action is taken on the ground that the election of the two men was owing to the undue influence exercised by the priests over the electors. A portion ot the 2,000 necessary to lodge the petition with the proper authorities was subscribed at the meeting. aiorlry "Will Bold Ills Seat In Peace. London, Aug. 3.

Har bor or Palos Yesterday n implicate or Ills Ancient Caravel Did the Same A Great Day. PAW)S, Ang. a This is the four hun dredth anniversary of the day on which Columbus set sail westward on the voyage of discoveries, and the festivities arranged here for celebrating the day were carried out with great eclat. At 6 o'clock, the hour at which Columbus began his voyage, tho caravel Santa Maria, constructed in imitation of the vessel of that name belonging to the Columbus ex pedition, which had been lying offshore all night, set her sails for her passage through the lines of warships anchored outside the bar; but, owing to a dead calm, a line was run to her from the gunboat, and she was towed down stream, followed by the Span ish flotilla in single file. Minister of Marine Montigo was on board the warship LegaspL The voyage down the river to the bar, which pa'ssed the monastery of La Rabida, on which the flags of all the American States were flying, occupied an hour. At the out side bar were moored the vessels of the for eign squadrons which had come to take part in the celebration. These vessels were formed in lines between which the caravel passed amid thundering salutes and deafen ing cheers. The smoke from the guns made it impos sible to watch the maneuvers of the cara vel, which followed for some distance the route taken by Columbus 400 years ago. At 9 o'clock the little vessel returned and re entered the river. The town ot Huelva is crowded with visitors, and all the build ings, both private and public, are gaily decorated. Fifteen of the Spanish flotilla conveyed the Santa Maria several miles, and when the signals were given by the Spanish Minister of Marine for the vessels to return the caravel was given a farewell salute. C0RRIGAN AND IRELAND. The Archbishop of New Tork Tries to Trip Up the Pope In a Statement. Rome, Ang. a The. following comes from a high source in the Vatican: Con siderable surprise has been caused here by an effort of Archbishop Corrigan to estab lish the inexactness of one of the state ments of the Holy Father in his recent letter to the Bishops of the province of Xew York. After the consecration of the new Bishop ot Brooklyn, His Grace of New York addressed a letter to the Holy Father, signed by himself and some of his suf irasrans. saying that it had come to their knowledge that a threat had been made to His Holiness that a culturkampf would be taken out in America if His Holiness ven tured to condemn the arrangements lately made for the schools situated in Faribault and Stillwater. In his reply the Holy Father stated dis tinctly that nobody ever made him such a threat. Upon receipt of the letter the Archbishop of New York, in order to prove his point, eolfceted a number of quotations Irom the memorial of the Archbisnip of St. Paul and from the letter of Cardinal Gib bons, of Baltimore, that seemed to bear a diflerent sense, and forwarded them to Rome in order to show by contrast the mis take of His Holiness. But the quotations are not to thepoint,for in none of them does either His Eminence of Baltimore or His Grace of St. Paul say to the Pope that in America a culturkampf would follow the condemnation of the arrangements for the schools of Faribault and Stillwater. They only allude in a general manner to a remote danger overhanging the Church in America if certain false pretenses made there recently were permitted,togrow.t t Batfonr as a Boodler. London, Aug. a A petition -was to-day formally lodged against the return to Par liament of Mr. Balfour, the Government leader in the last House of Commons, as member for the East division of Manches ter. The petition charges bribery, cheat ing, intimidation, undue influence, illegal hiring and general corruption by the agents of Mr. Balfour in the East Manchester division during the recent electoral con tests. ABBESIED BY A WOK AN. lira. Seymour Does Not Walt for an Offi cer's Aid. James Johnston, employed at the Carbon Iron Works, was arrested by a woman last night. About '9 o'clock, as Officer Miller was passing along Penn avenue, Mrs. Mary Seymour, who runs a boarding house, came running up to him and said that she wanted to have Johnston arrested, that she had sworn out a warrant against him before Alderman."Warner for lraud, and that he had packed all his clothes and was leaving. Officer Miller told her that he could not ar rest him, as he had not seen him do any thing. Mrs. Seymour insisted. Officer Miller said in a joking manner: "You go ahead and arrest him and I'll lend you my nippers." She replied, "Go away with yournippers, but I'll arrest-him," and running back to the house she grasped Johnston by the collar, and before he could reoover irom his astobishment she jerked him into the street and started him up toward the Twelfth ward police station. Half dragging and half pushing her prisoner, she finally landed him at the station and asked the sergeant to lock him up. Sergent Beck was taken back at the suggestion and told her he had no au thority to lock the man up. She became verv angry at this, and turning to Johnston said: "Will you stay here until I go to Alderman Warner's office and get the con stable?" He promised, hut she reconsidered and sent Officer Miller for the constable while she guarded her prisoner. In a short time Con stable Kramer put in an appearance and took Johnston In charge. He was taken be fore the Alderman, where he gave bail for a he aring. Made Love Wit h. a Revolver. Joe Snyder was given 30 days to the work house yesterday on a charge of carrying concealed weapons. The information was made by Francisca Greiner, a 16-year-old German girl, who alleged that he wanted to make love to her against her wishes. When she rejected him he drew a revolver and threatened to till her. When sentenced Mayor Kennedy warned him that it he did not behave himself in the future he would receive a more severe sentence.

LITTLE PROGRESS THIS SUMMER. The latest Trouble in the House Committee Sot Yet Adjusted. EYASI7B REASONS FOE TIIE DEIiAT FEOM A STAFF COBRESPOXDEXT.l Washington, Aug; a The committee of seven appointed by the Vice President to-day to Investigate the maintenance of private armed force for the purpose of sell ing their services to employers of workmen in the event of strikes or other troubles, and to inquire Into labor troubles generally, in accordance with the resolution adopted yesterday, is in the main a good one. Sena tor Palmer, of Illinois, was not selected as a member of the committee, however, and this is a surprise to everybody. Gallinger, of Hew Hampshire; Peffer, of Kansas, and Hansbrough, of North Dakota, have all shown a personal and intelligent interest in the questions to be investigated. For the rest little can be said. Felton, of California, has naturally dabbled a good deal in the Chinese phases of the labor and immigration questions. Sanders, of Mon tana; White, of Louisiana, and Hill, of New York, have never shown the least sin cere interest in such matters, and might as well not be on the committee at all. Working Members or the Committee. The hard work, if any be done, will be done by Chairman Gallinger and Messrs. Peffer and Hansbrough. Dr. Gallinger ac quired the trade of a printer early in life and can never forget the lessons he then learned as an employe. Senator Henry Clay Hansbrough also went through all the vicissitudes of a journeyman printer's life and is now a newspaper publisher at Devil's Lake, N. Dak. Senator Peffer, of Kansas, was a farmer in Cumberland county, Pa., in early life, and now holds not only all ot the opinions of the Farmers' Alliance, hut also many others ot a more radical character than any that have been indorsed by that body. These three Senators named first on the list make the committee an interesting and wholesome one, to say nothing of the others. Whether any sittings will be held during the recess ot Congress has not yet been de cided, but it is a matter of doubt, as the services of every member of the committee will be in demand the moment the cam paignopens, and all of them will need a little rest before that time. It is possible, however, that a brief session may be held at some hot weather resort, where rest and work may be mingled. Still a Idtck of Harmony. The trouble in the sub-committee which investigated the Homestead affair grows no better fast. Chairman Oates is profoundly displeased at the rejection of his report, which he purposed should be the greatest effort of his lite, and it is now doubtful if it will be presented to the House at all. A suggestion was made that the majority of the sub-committee prepare a report, "but the absurdity of disagreeing reports upon such a question has evidently made itself apparent, and the probabilities are, as I wrote ten days ago, that no report whatever will be made at this session, and, possibly, unless further and similar labor troubles occur, at any other session. When the matter is given to the full committee to-morrow it will, it is said, be concluded that the best oourse to pursue will be to lay the printed testimony before the House and rest at that, with a sugges tion that the committee pursue its investi gations and report at some future time. It is difficult to understand why the investiga tion should be continued. The committee has done all it started out to do under the resolution which created it The Delay Really an Evasion. They have called and examined all the witnesses they could think of who could throw light on the subject being investi gated. Thev have heard employers and employed, the Pinkertons and the critics of the Pinkertons. Other evidence would snrely be but a repetition of what is already in their possession. It is apparent, there fore, that the exense that further investiga tion is necessary before making a report is an evasion and not at all explanatory of the mystery that surrounds this extraordi nary condition of things in the committee, the real explanation for which is carefully concealed from the public. The committee was sent out post haste to investigate that some report might be made to Congress this session which would result in legislation corrective of the Pinkerton evil, if it were found to be an evil thing. It is therefore very queer that when the Chairman should declare himself ready to to make a report, the preparation of which was turned over to him by the unanimous vote of the committee, he should have but one person to agree with him that his report was worthy of presentation, afld that one person a Republican. Possibly something may leak out a little later in explanation of the mvstery, but just now each member of the whole committee gives but the most trifling reasons for the suppression of the report An Improved Gear Wheel. In the new chilled gear wheel invented by S. E. Max,well, a great drawback and annoyance in the working of electric motor street cars will be avoided. Heretofore the cut-gears have been made of cast iron, and they never lasted longer than three or four months. The new wheel, however, can be used for a year or more. Arrange ments have been inade with several of the traction lines for the adoption of the inven tion. Sleeping Cars Very Scarce. There is a' great demand for Pullman cars at present, and they are as scarce as bed bugs in a well-kept cot This is not un usual. The Knights Templar have hired all the sleepers available, and many of the peo ple going to Atlantic City to-day on a pop ular excursion can't get accommodations. The depot men are looking for a big rush in the station this niqrning.

The Globe Powder Company's Mill Near Verona Wrecked Albert Mosa ths Only Victim of the Accident Other Employes Hadn't Commenced Work. Albert,Moss, a young German,was almost instantly killed early yesterday morning by an explosion in the works of the Globe Powder Company, at McAbee station, on the Plum Creek branch, not far from Verona. The accident occurred at 5:30, and at this hour in the morning the men were not at work, or greater loss of life would have followed. As it is, Moss was the only victim. Several of the hands who were near by were shocked, but none hurt The company has 18 employes. According to the story told by Superin tendent Albert McAbee, a brother ot one of the proprietors, Moss was engaged in cleaning the bed plate, that is scraping the powder from it with a copper hammer. These hammers are used for safely, and if the powder is struck squarely the damage from a spark is slight It is supposed that Moss hit the plate and a spark ignited the powder. About ten kegs of the deadly stuff were in the building, and a terrific explosion followed, tearing off the roof. MoAbee heard Moss' cry for help, and he thought he was imprisoned by some ot the fallen timbers. AVhen he reached the door of the plant Moss walked out All his clothing but a belt around his waist aud his shoes were burned ofl. His skin was badly singed from bead to foot apd in places the skin was loose and could be peeled off. The poor fellow was wringing his hands with pain, and the entiele on them came off like a glove. He was bleeding at the mouth and he begged McAfee to throw a bucket of water over him. He tried to walk, but soon fell on his face, and in ten minutes was dead. The post mortem examination revealed that the concussion had broken a blood vessel, and this is what caused his death. His burns are not deep, but it is a question whether with the internal injury and scorched as he was if he could have re covered. The body will be buried at Mill town, wherehe resided. Mess was 29 years old and unmarried. His only relative in the country is a brother, who is in the regular army. Out side of the roof, which was torn off, the building was not "wrecked, and work will be resumed to-morrow. The plant of the Globe Company has been in operation for a vear. The firm occupies 17 acres of ground, half of which is covered with buildings of stone. Foreman, Johnson stated that an ac cident of the kind was very rare. An ex plosion from using a copper hammer has not occurred for 30 years. He claims the last one from this cause occurred in Chambers burg in 1862. The company makes common blasting powder. The body of Moss was brought to Verona, where" 'Squire Hudson held an inquest for the Coroner. IMPBOVINO THS SERVICE. Allegheny to Have a Stmt Engine Honse and Engine. The Allegheny Public Safety Committee met last night and considered the purchase of a lot in the Tenth ward for an engine housS site. The lot had been falorably rec ommended by the sub-committee at $1,600. Simon Drum contended that the lot was not well located; that it was a more expensive piece of property than other offers received, and, withal, the ground itself was not suit able. Peter Born thought the whole matter Bhould be referred back to Councils. Chief Murphv aud Chief Jones were called upon to give their opinion regarding the lot Each of these officials thought the property was the best that could be secured in the Tenth ward, and although its price was higher than that of several other locations vet the value of a proper site would easily compensate for the difference in the price. As a result of the debate the matter was put to a vote and it was decided to purchase the lot that hadjbeen proposed. Bids for -the "new. first-class fire engine were opened. They were: From the Man chester Locomotive Works for $5,000, with $500 off for the old Amoskeag; from the American Fire Engine Company, 'operated by Clapp & Jones, tor $4,575, with $150 off for the old Amoskeag, and from the Silsby Company for $4,500, with $160 for the old Amoskeag engine. It was decided to accept the latter bid, and it was favorably recom mended. SLEEPS IN THE CAB. .A Young Man Who Amuses Passengers on the Dnqnesne IJne. A young man about 18 years of age, who boards a Duquesne Traction car on a down town street, affords quite a deal of amuse ment to those who happen to be his fellow passengers. He no sooner takes his seat, which is usually the corner one, than his head begins to bob. Before the car has gone two blocks the young man is safe in the arms of Morpheus. Morpheus' strength must be on the wane, at least he fails to hold this man to his equilibrium, and the result is that every motion of the car sways uiui io auu lru, souieuuies ms neaa rests on the young lady who may be sitting next to him, then aain it comes in contact with the window pane with such force as to make one's blood run cold. The voune man is verv regular in his habits, so far as the time of taking his car ana nis nap is concerned, une peculiar feature is that he.has never been known to go past his getting ofl place. No matter how fast asleep he may be he always man ages to wake up within one block of his corner. Another gentleman who gets on the Lari mer avenue branch of the same line everv evening at 5:30, makes a regular habit o'f .guiiiif to Bleep Biauuing on me iront piai iormj holding on the guard in front ot the window. Before the car'oovers two blocks he is always fast asleep, yet he never lets go his hold of the guard. BAIL FOB BADEH Accepted by Judge Ewlng, bat Knold's Ap plication Is Kefnsrd. Judge Ewing was called into his private chamber yesterday morning to accept bail for Paul Bauer. The amount was fixed at $5,000, which was furnished by Emil Bescbel and Ernest Kehrer, both of Alle gheny. In the case of Knold Judge Ewing said there was evidence that he had shown Berk man where the Carnegie offices were and he refused to admit him to bail until there would be a further hearing in the case. This hearing will be held Saturday morning. Fine Passenger Cars. , Four of the 25 new passenger cars ordered by the Panhandle road from Ohio Falls Car Company have been delivered and are in service.

STRIKERS GET ILL THE BLAME For Conflicts That IJaye Cccnrred in Dis putes Orer Wages. A MINORITY IS 1CCDSED 0P CRIMES. rtPECIAt, TELEGRAM TO TBE DISPATCH.! New Yobk, Aug. a William A. Pinkerton and Robert A. Pinkerton have just sent a statement to the Judiciary Committee of tbe House of Representatives as an answer to the charges of Mr. Powderly and Senator Vest concern ing the alleged outrages of Pinkerton men upon workingmen in strikes of recent occur rence. Incidents of the New York Central strike, the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy strike and the strike on the Denver and Bio Grande Kailroad are cited. In nearly every case the responsibility is laid, by the statement of the Pinkertons, at the door of the strikers themselves. This is the way the statement concludes: "The instances we have referred to are only a few samples of hundreds of crimes com mitted by member of these secret labor organizations. to aid their strikes or to revenge themselves upon their employers for not submitting to the terms and dictations of their em-, ployes. It is undoubtedly true that the great majority of the members of these secret organizations are law-abiding and re spectable, and that a small minority only participate in these crimes. But if the labor organizations are honestly sincere in their expressions of desire to uphold law and order, and to protect property, they could readily discipline and control the guilty ones, and we would no longer witness the fearful scenes that at tend nearly all strikes and that are such a disgrace to labor and to this country. "Instead ot being condemned, the out rages so committed are virtually applauded, and the criminals, if caught and indicted, are glorified as martyrs in the cause of labor. Notwithstanding the protestations of the leaders at Homestead, no reasonable man can for a moment doubt that if the troops and deputy sher iffs were withdrawn, the non-union men now worKing in the mills would be murdered, and for no offense, no wrong, no injury to anyone. The only grievance is that these non-union men are anxious to honestly earn their living in" employments and upon terms entirely satisfactory to them, out which the strikers have seen fit to reject or to spurn." ANNEXATIONISTS IN HAWAII. Some or Them Charged With. Aspiring to I Become Cabinet Officers. Honolulu, Aug. 3. During the session of the Hawaiian Legislature July 21 Repre sentative Wilcox brought up his-want-of-confidence resolution and moved (hat it be considered in committee of the whole, so that all might have a full opportunity to express their views on the matter. He said he was aware it was the determination of some of the members to summarily dispose of it because it was introduced by a native Hawaiian. He held that if the Queen were to appoint a Cabinet exclusively of native Hawaiians ffer Majesty would receive the support of all reasonable members of the House. He charged that some of the an nexation members of the House aspired to become Cabinet officers in order to facilitate the annexation of Hawaii to the United States. Members objected to Wilcox's language, and after some further discussion Noble Baldwin moved that the resolution be laid on the table. Baldwin said it made no dif ference whether the resolution came Irom a Hawaiian or a foreign member, it was not presented at the proper time and it has not been properly canvassed, not even on the part of the introducer of the resolution. The motion to lay on the table was then put and carried, the vote being 32 ayes, 14 noes. The Ministry were debarred from voting on the motion. Ashford, Wilcox and Bush voted no.

A luxury That Jay Gou'd Thinks He Would Bather Dispense With. , NewYobk, Aug. a Special It was said to-day in Wall street that Jay Gould had asked the O. W. Hughes Yacht Agency to serl his yacht, the Atalanta. The story was that Mr. Gould had decided to dispose of the yacht because ''of the wreck of the Alva. Mr. Hughes told a re porter to-day that on August 28, 1889, be had been commissioned to dispose of the Atalanta. "The Atalanta," he said, "hasn't been in commission since 1890. A long time ago a gentleman informed me that he wanted to buy her. The price set by Mr. Gould at first was 5250,000. I be-, lie ve the boat cost half a million. On July 18 I wrote to George Gould, asking him what was the lowest figure for which his father would sell the Atalanta. The next day I received a reply that the lowest price was 200,000. The Alva was wrecked on July 23. The date of George Gould's letter shows that the loss of Mr. Vanderbilt's Iioat had nothing to do with Mr. Gould's deter mination to sell the Atalanta. ' It is said that Mr. Gould has found it to be too expensive to maintain the Atalanta even in idleness. There is a story that once Captain Shackford, the commander of the Atalanta, asked Mr. Gould to allow him to enter her in a race. He informed Gould that some repairs were necessary. Mr. Gould told him to have them made. The bill was $19,500. Mr. Gould was sur prised, and, it is said, remarked that it was costly to get his boat in trim. WAB AGAINST THS GLANDERS Declared by New Orleans Horsemen Who Got Bit on a Montana Oral. NEfa Orleans, Aug. 3. ISpeetal.' The State Board of Health has appealed to tbe City Council for permission to deal vigor ously with the horses and mules here affected by the danders, which disease has assumed very serious proportions. The dis ease was imported Irom Montana, where the Crescent City Bailroad Company got a large number of horses cheap, as well as the express companies, omnibus and delivery lines, etc Some months ago the glanders showed itself among, the horses, and was thought at first to be a cold. It has since' spread largely, due to the fact that the own ers of these Montana horses sold-all 1heir horses as soon as they found some of them affected. As there is no law covering tho subject, the Board of Health applied lor extraordi nary powers to deal summarily with this disease and kill all infected animals. It is asserted that the street railroad traffic in Mobile was almost suspended for a time, in consequence of glanders brought in there, as here, by horses from Montana. IHE SILK W0BM INDTJSTBY. A Kingston Man Is Kon Raising a Colony In His Apartments. Kingston, N. Y., Aug. 3. W. W. Cleaver is carrying on an experiment in the way of raising silk worms in a room at his home in TTnadilla. A few months ago some eggs of this insect were shipped to him from Philadelphia. v In prospect of this experiment he set out a number of mulberry trees, the leaves of which are the food of the silk worm. From the eggs have been hatched about 25,000 worms, which are now in the several stages of their development, some young and small, others large enough to moult or cast off the first skin lor the one capable of greater expansion, and still others nearly ready to begin the spinning of the cocoon. Each cocoon contains on the average six miles of thread, so fine as to be almost in visible. Before tbe ball is reeled the worm is strangled by a process known to the breeders, which assures the preservation of the thread in one entire piece. The cocoon in this shape is sent to the reelers, and after other processes is converted into silk fabric Mr. Cleaver thinks it possible for a breeder, even on a small scale, to realize $100 or more a month. 100 Chinese Pirates Exeeated.

C. has become popular because it is so fine, and Its popularity shows that tbe public taste is becoming more re fined.
