From Office.
SEE DISTRIBUTION " OF TATEONAGE
The remarks or Senator Quay sbont Har
rison which appeared in The Dispatch yes
terday morning formed the principal sub
ject for Sunday discussion among Repub
lican politicians. The opinion seemed to
be that the Beaver statesman is either good
Bt dissembling or else is a very generous
man. The people close to the Senator see
a great deal of quiet sarcasm in what he
said, and they do not accept the interview
literally. They laugh at the statement
that Harrison would be renominated four
years from now and the country would re
Verse itselC They believe there is no doubt
about the latter result, but they think some
other man would be the victor.
An intimate friend of Senator Quay said
yesterday: "I know if Harrison had been
re-elected he wonld have commenced at
once to down the Senator in his own State.
Quay is aware of this as well as his friends.
"Why, he hasn't spoken to John "Wana
snaker since last January. It will be re
membered that while the Senator was sick
in Florida the Postmaster General sided
with C It Magee and Congressman Dalzell
in support of George Miller for Collector.
That produced the rupture between "Wana
Inaker and Quay. I don't mean to say
that they don't speak as they pass by, but
they haven't pulled together since last
January.
Why Quay Opposed Harrison,
"I want to add that Quay did not refuse
to support Harrison at Minneapolis on
personal grounds. He felt that the Presi
dent could not be elected. He had no as
surance from Mr. Blaine that bad the latter
been nominated and elected that lie would
have had the Pennsylvania catronago at his
tUsposal."
Ihe action of the Philadelphia senatorial
Uelezatiou in indorsing jur. ijuny is ac
cepted by many in Western Pennsylvania
to mean that lie will have a walkover for re
election to the Senate. It is .hinted that
Quay will not serve out the temVand those
who claim to be ported say that he would
not have been a candidate again had he not
been so viciously attacked by the Demo
cratic press two year aso. His friends state
that he is tired or politics and would like to
quit, bnt not under pressure.
The great anxiety or all the Democratic
factions in PittsburK to have Postmaster
JIcKean serve out his term is a puzzle to
Republicans. Tt is well known that Mr.
JicKean wanted to res'.cu last Rummer, but
was nersuaded not to do so by Senator Quay
andJlr. Wanamaker. If Harrison had been
re-elected bo intended to qu about Janu
ary, but under the circumstances he lays be
Bill remain until Spring. Mr. iicKean is
not desirous ot putting in the full time, but
lie realizes that to retire before Cleveland is
inaugurated will put his party in a hole.
The President can't inako an appointment
to nil the local Dostoillco for an unexpired
term. It must be for four vears. There is.
however, no tenure of ofllce in America, and
the Democrats can ask for a resignation at
any time. This is unpleasant and an un
necessary duty.
McKran "Will Stay Until Spring.
"It is settled that Jlr. ilcKean will remain
In the office until spring, but he is anxious
to get away as soon as possible. The post
master is very popular with all parties, and
the Democrats and Republicans would be
glad to tee him seWO the fall ter;u H ho will.
"Friends or Colonel Hudson state that he
will lecelve considerable business support.
Itis.conceded that he is a good executive
olScer, and knows more about the organiza
tion or the postoflice than any of the other
candidates. The light for the job promises
iole red-hot. and whoever gets It will have
to do srmo lively wo k "
Colonel Frank ltutledgo is said to be try
ing for United States .Marshal. Friends of
John C. Bane, of Washington, say that ho is
not after the ofllce. lie pierers to have
something in line with bis profession. Tim
O'Leary al-o denies that he wants the mar-slial-hlp.
As for Captain Bai clay, who has
been mentioned m connection with his old
)ilace, the pension agency, he is said to be
no Ion -era member of the district. Helms
been living in Xew Jeiscy for more than a
year.
James Atwell, who was a close friend of
Iiandall, has been watching Pennsylvania
politics very closely. "The new spapers." he
said, vive us only eight Congressmen iu the
State We have 1L In some lists I notice
JIcAleer, of Phc'ladclphla. is put down as a
Hepublican. lie nas indorsed by the Re
publicans but is as good a Democrat as ever
walked in shoe leather. All theQuaker City
papers but the Tunes supported him.
Patronage Controlled by Congressmen.
"Our Congressmenare McAIeer, Hallowell,
Beltzhcover, of Cumberland; Jlutchler, of
Uoithampton; the Berks man, I have for
gotten his name; Biley, of Schuylkill; Ilines,
orScranton; Wolveiton.orSuntmry: Kribbs,
or Clearfield; Joe Sibley and Sipe. I
think ilie delegation will control the
bulk of the patronage. I don't be
lieve Mr. Harrity will interfere. Randall
was accused of being a dictator when Cleve
land was first elected, but that wa a great
mistake. 1 know that Charles Boyle, of
Uniontown, and other Congressmen got
what they wanted. Former chairmen, like
liarnum. who was a senator, didn't diannoe
of the offices in Connecticut, and talvm S
Brice did not inter ere in Ohio, though ho
may have something to say now. It is not
democratic for our chaiimen to interfere
much in tho distrihution or the offices. If
Hairity wereaSenatiirand inclined to be
obstiepeious, he could givollr. Cleveland
considerable trouble, and for this reason
would havo more influence. But I don't
believe Mr. Harrity ever thought of inter
fering with the rights ot the Concress
tnen. "It seems to me the scramble for place be
fore the corpse is buried is premature.
Kribbs, Sibley and Sipe will certainly have
Bonietbing to say about the pension agency
and Internal Collectoiship. Their districts
are included, and they ill probably decide
who is ontitlcd to the offices. The marshal
Jias Jurisdiction to Scranton, and, of collide
Hlues will want to be heard in the deter
mination of the appointment. The patron
age of the Internal Collector-liip has been
greatly reduced, and tho office is not tho
power it used to be. The storekeepers aie
now doing the work of many of the gaugets.
Weighing whisky has done much to simplify
the business."
CAMPBELL GOES TO HEW YORK.
The Ohio Ex-Governor Concedes' the Elec
tion of Uio Republican State Ticket.
Ex-Governor James E. Campbell, ot Ohio,
passed through the city last evening bound
for New York. Mr. Campbell is reeling very
Jubilant over tho Democratic victory. In
most of the Cabinet slates he appe.11 s as the
next Secretary of the Interior, and a more
popular Democrat could not be selected
for the place. Mr. Campoeil said with
n smile that he was going to the metropolis
to look after some business interests, but
the supposition is that he will have a con
lerence with Mr. Cleveland about the future
policy of the party. Just now the Demo
crats are trying to determine whether it is
best to hold an extra session or Congress or
not. The ex-Governor declined to express
an opinion.
"I am arraid," he said, "that the Republi
can State ticket in Ohio is elected by a small
majority, -but I believe we will have the
electoral vote with the exception of Dan
lord, Republican Elector at Large. You
remember I predicted the result at the Chi
cago Convention."
"What will bo your reward," was asked.
"Oh, we are all in it," he leplied. "I guess
there are offices enough to go aiound."
Beginning to Train Tor Office.
J. C O'Donnoll is being brought forward
as a candidate for the internal Vevenue col
lectorsbip. It was reported that last even
ing he.entertained a number of politicians
from the Twelfth and Thirteenth ward-rat

bringing about his appointment.

lu setting out to give feminine readers of
The Dispatch a daily illustrated lesson
in dress, permit me to say that some of the
novelties of adornment are beyond explana
tion. For example, what is it that gives
the remarkable value to a bow fastened
half way up a woman's back? It certainly
has a womanly, home-like, loveable look
that no other one accessory gives. This
prettv bodice depicts the idea. Any plain
material will take this style. It will be
prettv carried out in any color. The
gown'in my sketch is groy a soft darkish
grey, as dark as stone grey, but not so
cold. The skirt is not bell-shaped, but made
as skirts used to be rather plain, except for
the fullness at the back, and dragging a
little. Tho bodice is made loose on the lin
ing, the fuJInesi being drawn down in
pointed lines front and back, and held in
place by a bodice of narrow grey ribbon.
The rib Don passes around fiom back to
ftont; then the ends cross in front, drawing
the ribbon close all mound at the waist line,
and are carried back again meeting just be
low the center of the back, and there tied i n
a pretty bow, the loop of which go upward,
while the long endsoat don as long as
tho skirt. Around the armhole lace is
sowed to give almost a cape effect. The
edgoof tho bodice shows in 9 soft puff Just
below the ribbon bodice. It is almost as If
the bodice were cut blouse shape, and then
drawn In by the belt. This same effect la
prettily carried out In the sleeve. A big .
pun forms the upper sleeve to the elbow.
Then just at the elbow a band of grey rib
bon is tied and the pun is drawn down a
little and the od.se shows below the ribbon.
The rest of the sleeve Is plain.
This dress suits a slender or angular
figure. It supplies all needed softness and
grace of outline. Afresh, bright skin and
chestnutty sunny hair are well suited by the
shado of grey represented, or a really golden
blonde with fair and pink skin will "look a
dream." Of course, my gentle readers will
know how to adapt the fabric to their indiv
idual requirements. Floeette.
CAETEK NOT BLAHED.
Secretary Tracy Held Responsible for tho
Big Slump In Brooklyn.
James F. Burke returned from New Tork
yesterday and put up at the Duquesne. He
said it was not fair for Republicans to jump
on Tom Carter, as any chairman would have
met with the same late. The National Com
mittee hoped to split oven In the
Empire State and did not give
up until noon of tho election day.
Secretary Tiacy was unpopular,ln Brook
1 vn, and is blamed for tho slump of 23,000 in
that city. He adhered to civil service re
form in running the navy yard, and had as
many Demociats as Republicans employed.
Held. Ulscock atid Depew tailed to hold
their own in their districts, while there
were Republican gains in all of Piatt's
counties.
Mr. Burke says lie knows that Chairman
Carter received a nice letter from President
Harrison. He was told that it was the only
letter sent to a national manager from a
defeated Presidental candidate ia the last IS
years.
SLATE BO0FS MUST 00.
A Project on Foot at Stcnbenville to Manu
facture Clay Shingles.
Steubksville, Nov. 13. Special. The
clay shingle, so-called, is the newest roofing
material and is proving a formidable com
petitor to slate tiling. Capitalists in this
city and vicinitv are interesting themselves
in a project to establish a plant hero for the
manufacture of Hie new fire-clay shineles,
the promoter of the enterprise being John
It. Elder, of Indianapolis.
Elder says the rich, nlastio clay of such
chemical construction as is required for the
clay shingles, is abundant in this section.
Tho best clay burn" a rich, last red, and the
business Is said to be very profitable. The
prospects aro that a plant will be estab
lished here or at Toronto, O. The clay
shingles are said to be made as durable as
slate from the best quarries, and can be fur
nished much cheaper.

A NEW" YEAR STARTED.
Pittsburgh T. M. C. A. Celebrates Its
Twenty-Sixth Anniversary
BY A BIG MEETING LAST EIGHT.
A St Louis Easiness Ian Tells of the
Work in the WeBt.
THE ANXUAL EErORT EXCODEAGING
The Young Men's Christian Association
of Pittsburg was 2G years old yesterday, and
the anniversary was properly observed last
night by 1,600 people gathering in the
First Presbyterian Church. The audience
included the most prominent divines and
business men of the two cities.
The address ot the evening was made by
Thomas S. McPheeters, president of the St.
Louis Y. M. C A. He.is president of the
McPheeters "Warehouse Company, of St
Louis. During the course of his address
he said: "I am a plain business man, and
to be standing here to-night to address such
a large body of cultivated people causes me
no little embarrassment I am going to
speak of the present condition of
young men. In the "West the busi
ness is almost exclusively in the
hands of young men. Our Governor,
lawyers and our men in all professional
walks arc young men. I am from the West,
and you Eastern people will have to excuse
me if I tell you anything you already
know. I spoke of the progressive young
men in our State. Now, on the other hand,
I am sorry to say that two-thirds of the
crimes are committed by young men under
30 years of age. The census of the United
States shows crime has doubled in the
past ten years. Has the population
doubled? In St. Louis last year
2,045 arrests were made, and of
this number 1,521 were young men; 1,360
weie sent to jail and 975 of these were
young men. I employed two men to watch
two saloons in our city in order to find out
the attendance of young people to these re
sorts, and iu lour hours 750 men of tender
ages had entered the places.
Great Crime Among the Toung.
"You all remember the awful Maxwell
trunk tragedy of a few years ago; he was a
young man. The Anarchists who were
hanged in Chicago were young men, and
many other awful crimes ate credited to
young men. What will happen at this rate
In 100 years t This country will bo in a state
of Anarchy, Socialism and lawlessness.
"What young men want is companion
ship of the proper kind. If I see a young
man who does not like companionship I
become suspicious of him. They want re
ligious Improvement. There is too much
corruption. You cannot always tell the
man you are dealing with is a church elder
by the way he does business with you, you
have to look at the church records to And It
out.
"The educational features or the Y. M. C.
A. aro a grand thing. Do you know there
are more young men attending night school
in the Y. M.CA. of New York City than at
Harvard or Yale. There are more attending
our night school in St, Louis than any other
educational institution In the State outside
of the State University. The association is
for sympathy. Not that kind ot sympathy
of sending flowers to a man about to bo
hanged, but sympathy for those who de
serve It. We use to hold biz meetings in the
Interest of young men, but we have found
that personal work reaches the heart of the
young man better."
The report for the past year was read, and
it marks a point in the growth of the asso
ciation never before attained. The member
ship has now reached 2,143 in the Central
associationand including the branches the
number Is 3.099, a gain of 863 over last year.
In the building the Introduction or electric
lights during the past year and the refur
nishing of the parlor early In tho summer
has added to tho general attractiveness. A
favorable addition was the orchestia, which
continually grows in popular favor. Tuo
group or meetings which represents the le
ligious lire of the association has shared in
the growth, being more largely attended
now than ever.
Some Gratifying Reports.
An especial point of gratification to the
members is the increase of attendance in
the educational classes, .the average being
26 for oacb. class, with a total or 3,883. The
indications are that even these figures will
be largely exceeded during tho coming win
ter and threaten to rival tho gymnasium as
nn attraction for young men. The Commit
tee on State and International Works has
done its part. The subscriptions to this de
partment during the past year were $637 50.
Each year the gymnasium becumes more
complete. The daily attendance last year
was 113 and tho average of the classes was
17. To the gymnasium 110 new diesslng
boxes have been added. Tho courso of the
entertainments has aUo grown in popu
larity, the avenue attendance during last
season reaching 1,400.
This Increase in membership and growth
tells Its own eloquent Btory or the need or
Increased facilities. All that is needed to
aid the work is lor somo charitiblo person
to erect a building ample in its appoint
ments and devote it to this purpose. The
East Liberty branch is a striking illustra
tion or the expansion that takes place when
proper facilities are provided. The im
provements in the gymnasium increased
the membership from 1S3 to 401. The com
pletion of the new yards at Walls for the
Pennsylvania Railroad and the change in
the running or trains have caused the re
moval or most or the men rrom Twenty
eighth streot where the rooms are located.
The association doesn't expect much
Increase 110m year to year in the work or
the Lawrenceville branch as their equip
ment is tho least satisfactor. Tho report
closes by mentioning tho death or Trnstoe
Joseph Ilorne and stating what funds had
been received and distributed during the
year.
The week of prayer was opened yesterday
afternoon by a city meeting at the associa
tion rooms. William K. Jennings conducted
the exercises. Every day and night during
the coming week these gatherings will bo
held. They are In vogue all over tho world
where tncie Is a branch of the Y. St. C. A.
ELDORADO IN ECUADOR.
Great Stories Told About the "Wealth of
the Golden Treasures There.
London; Nov. 13. The British Consul
at Quito is responsible for a sto-y about the
mineral wealth of Ecuador, which promises
to develop a second California gold craze.
He has sent to the Royal School of Mines
here a specimen of the fbld dust from the
Napo country, with an account of its origin.
He writes that it is a speoimen taken from
a quantity sent to Quito in payment lor
stores by an American who has lived a
hermit's life many years in the wilderness.
The Consul adds that gold abounds iu a
region iuhabitated by Indians who bring it
to Quito on certain days in the year, when
they purchase corn of the Government.
They grind up nuggets to dust ariithrow
the surplus into the river, to avoid'exciting
suspicion and pressure to reveal the source
ot the wealth. The Consul further says
that all necessary is the construction of a
road from Quito to the Napo district, when
"it is possible that the dreams of past ages
may yet be realized, and Eldorado may at
length be found."

AN AWFUL DEATH.
A Tramp Throws Crude Petroleum Over a
Bnf and It Ignites.
Bradford, Nov. 13 Special. John Leg
gett, a 14-year-old hoy, died at his mother's
home in tho Fifth ward to-night from burns
thnt cover him from head to foot. This
evening at 6 o'clock a tramp sought shelter
in an old shed which a party of boys used as
a playhouse. The tramp was drunk and
sang rlDald Bongs. The hoys tried to get
the tramp to loave the place, but he refused
to go. Young Leggett entered to expostu
late with the rollow for "Jumping tho boys'
claim." He had kindled a fire in nn old
stovo In tho shanty, and among tho "truck"
in the place was a bucket partly full of
crude petroleum. The Leggett boy was
standing close to the open fire, when tho
tramp deliberately seized tho bucket of oil
and dashed it over the boy in such a way
that what did not strike him went into tho
Are.
Of course the names followed the torrent
of oil, leaping from the flro in the stovo to
the little lellow's saturated clothing, and In
a breath he was ablaze from crown to toe.
The lad screamed for help5, and a railroad
emplove passing the place rushed to his ro
ller. In spite ot a gallant flzlit to save him
tho clothing was burned on theboy berote
the fire was smothered. Delirious und rav

average of 60C miles per day.
High winds, rain or (If cold enough) snow, south
erly winds, and consequently high temperature,
usually precede "Lows" across the country.
When the "Low" passes east of a place the wind
changes to north, bringing lower temperature,
clearing skies, and often cold wares and northers.
The high area brings sunshine.
A SENSATION TO COME.
LLxzio Borden's Prosecutors Promise
Un-
looked for Disclosures at the Trial.
Taunton, Ma ss., Nov. ia The Lizzie
Borden case will be taken up by the grand
jury Monday. Mr. McHenry, the Provi
dence detective, will not testify. City
Marshal Hilliard, of FalA River, says, re
ferring to the Trickey-McHenry imbroglio,
that the whole matter had not been made
public yet, nor would it be until after the
trial, if there is a trial.
He gave his listener to understand that
what was to come would when made public
make the biggest sensation of the day.
A dispatch from Taunton, Mass., says:
Miss Borden appears to be Buffering no in
convenience and shows no great anzietv
respecting the coming grand jnry hearing.
She is outwardly the same cool "and com
posed woman who entered Taunton so many
weeks ago. During the day, when she
dresses, she takes exercise in the corridors
of the woman's apartment, and she spends
much of her time in the hospital room
above, where Mrs. AVright has given her
two windows full of flowers to look alter
and in a measure divert her mind.
