The visitors had then nred on run. The local team was not satisfied, however, and continued the game until th end of the contest, during which fbft visitor scored fight times' and tuft borne team entirely overlooked the importance of even getting to first haw. Matthews' Uivsterimts pitching wa too much for the local players. Cnt.il the eighth inning they were iicalde even to make a hit ofi'him. O' Day's pitching was slow, and he was batted the field.

While there were but farce errors in the contest, two of which were made by the Allegheny, the game was distressingly slow and lisfh-4. The score is as Mows: of reciprocity is most inrlnential.

Mr. Ma gee's stereotyped answer to ques tions was: I don't know; do yon?" A few moments before the long train of politician -bearing cars left the depot, a wild hurrah announced the arrival of the Beaver county delegation, accompanied by a large number of neighbors and personal friends of Col. Quay. They filled "s3- a Pullman car, across both sides of which in large letters were inscriptions which read; "Beaver County Solid for M.

S. Quay for State Treasurer." The Beaver -county delegates, James H. Cunningham, J. R. Harrah, Pl M.

Martin and Samuel Moody, were accompanied, among others, by Richard Quay, the Ctdonel's eldest son; Major G. G. Eber-hart, Hon. W. H.

Marshall, Captain Charles Fowler, C-Minty Detective Lazarus, Captain Curtis Noss, Prot honotary. Stephen P. Stone. A. W.

"The rumors that my father's candidacy is not meant to be genuine," he said "are a mistake. He wants the nomination and election, and unless we have reckoned without our host, Chris Magee willhave the melancholy pleasure of wearing craje for his buried political hopes and frustrated designs ou fhe State Treasury." 'Rut it is said Chris Magee's alleged quarrel with your father is a myth, only intended to deceive the unsuspecting voter." "I don't know anything about that," replied the young man, innocently. The Washington county delegates, Messrs. John W. Donnen, Boyd Crumrine and J.

B. Find lay, also for Quay, joined with the Beaver county folks in giving three rousing cheers for 'the statesman from Beaver." In addition to the prominent Pittsbnrghers already mentioned are George von Bonn burst, ex-County Treasurer Witherow, State Treasurer Li vsey, W. P. Ford, John Neeb, Thomas J. Keenau and Charles Neeb.

Malcolm Hay anl Hi Worthy Snc-ffMor-The Oftice-elter. Special Correspondence The Pittsburgh Post Washington, July 4, Malcolm Hay's retirement from the First Assistant Post master General -ship was a matter of per sonal regret to President Cleveland. He knew Mr. Hay personally when he appointed him, and had formed a very high opinion of him. This opinion never changed.

The President suffered no tlisapiointment in Mr. Hay, and lefore he had been in onice very lung he grew to re gard Mr. Hay as one ot the strongest men, intellectually, connected wih his administration. It was, therefore, with the deepest regret that the President parted with him. An incident occurred recently that shows the confidence Mr.

Cleveland had in Mr, Hay. A Senator was at the White House and made complaint to the Chief Executive because a certain post office had not been filled in bis State. After he had finished, the President inquired abruptly 'Have yon seen Mr. Hay Yes; but he refuses to make a change, on the ground that there are no charges against the present incumbent 4Then I can do nothing for you," Mr. i Cleveland, replied firmly.

"Mr. Hay has stle charge of those cases, and I will not interfere with him." When Mr. Hay returned from Aiken there was considerable comment in the Pcpublican press about his long absence from duty, aud many of them sueeringly asked how much of the two mouths' salary he had earned. As a matter of fact he worked just as hard in Aiken as he could have done in Washington, but when the disbursing officer of the Iepartnient handed him his two months salary for the time that he was away, Mr. Hay promptly refused to take it.

and the money, over 9H0, was covered back into the Treasury. If some of the virtuous Republican officials had followed Mr. Hay's example the people would have been saved many thousands of dollars. HIS WOKTlfY SVCCKSSOK. Mr.

Stevenson, of Illinois, Mr. Hay's successor, is spoken of very highly by all who know him. He is a perfect picture of health, is nearly six feet tall, has a high, broad forehead, bright brown eyes, aud iu conversation his features light up with a pleasant smile. Mr. Stevenson is a good listener and a good talker when the occasion requires it.

He is said to have great executive ability, and a capacity for hard work. He will require both in his new position. It is estimated that there are at least twenty-five hundred postorh'ee vacancies ready to be filled today, most of them all caused by resignations, aud a good many postmasters are asking why they are not relieved. It is probable that they will not be kept waiting much longer for their answer. Mr.

Sterenson will enter upon the discharge of his duties on Monday. ADVICE FOR THE ADMINISTRATION. It is almost as difficult for the average caller to gain an audience with a member of the cabiuet as it is with the President. The change of administration brought a very large crowd of people to Washington, and they all felt that they could give the new officials some good advice about runuing the Government. In order to get any time to devote to the public business, the cabinet officers have been compelled to follow theexampleof the President and only receive callers during certain hours of the day.

The struggle to get in during these hours, and the disappointment manifested bv those who arrive "junt too late," would furnish abundant material for an artist or student of human nature. Tradition makes the Secretary of State almost inaccessible. Unless one is accompanied by an influential friend the answer that comes back from the SH'retary on his card is almost invariably, 'The Secre tary of State is very busy and asks to be excused to-day." This system has grown into a custom. On some accounts it has its advantages. It prevents the Secretary from being bored by a lot of cranks who hang about the Capital.

Iu efi'ect, however, it makes the State Department the most aristocratic branch of the Gov ernment. It is necessary to be well introduced in order to gain an admittance there. Mr. Bayard has not observed these rules as strictly as some of his immediate predecessors, but as everything altout the State Department is governed more or less by tradition and precedent, there has been no material change under he new chief. There is no telling what four years may bring about, however.

MANNING'S VISITOKS. Probably Secretary Manning has more visitors than any one member of the cabi net. His office is in the extreme southeast corner of the building, and commands a view of Pennsylvania avenue to the Capi tol, and on the south side oue can look out upon the Washington monument and the Potomac fiats. One corner of Mr. Manning's office is fenced in with a num ber of screens.

When the Secretary wishes to have a particularly confidential conversation with a visitor he takes him behind the screen. No one is allowed to disturb him until he reappears. Next to the Secretary's office is a small ante-room and leyond that is a large oblong room that used to be occupied by Assistant Secretary New. Mr. Manning's private secretary presides over this room, aud it is there the visitors are kept waiting before being summoned into the presence of the Secretary of the Treasury.

Mr. Manning is a good executive officer and dispatches business and visitors with great rapidity He listens and thinks at the same time. There are three rooms between Postmas ter General Vilas and the outside world By the time a visitor has worked his way through into General Vilas presence he feels like a man who has accomplished a hard day's work. Go as early as he may. there are always a score or more of callers ahead of him.

Many persons have sat in the ante-room of the Postmaster General from 10 to 12, the receiving hours, without being advanced more than one room. Most of them take it good naturedly, however, and say that they do not expect that Mr. Vilas can see everybody at once. i ver across the street in the Interior De partment, Mr. Lamar holds a perfect levee between the hours of 10 aud 12.

Everyone is admitted at once, and he walks about talking to each one by turns. The greatest confusion prevails and the visitor generally goes away with the impression that the Secre tary has not heard one word he has said. He is mistaken, however. Mr. Lamar has a good memory and rarely misses a sentence of importance.

When he be comes tired or bored with his callers, he slips out into a private room and goes out for a walk. For a "dreamer," Secretary Lamar has many practical ways. Secretaries Whitney and Endicott and Attorney General Garland are never crowded with callers, and so do not place any restrictions when they will or will not be recti veil. F. C.

rsjeial to The Pittsburgh Post. July Colonel Quay seems to have a walk over for the Republican nomination for State Treasurer, lie is anticipatingthe result of the convention on Wednesday with the sereuest satisfac tion. In his room at the Lochiel Hotel, surrounded by a number of his friends, he declared that 1st votes on the first and only ballot was about the correct figure. If he were r.ot successful on the first ballot, he admitted that his candidacy. won hi be in a bad way.

He thought Mo Devitt would not be a candidate, and that his delegare would go to Longenecker as well as other delegates opposed to him (Quay). He had not changed his opiuion that Philadelphia would give htui a solid vote. Senator Lee, John Cessna and Charles "Emory Smith are here to boom the cause of Senator Longeueeker, who is also on the ground. Longenecker claims to be sure that Quay will not be nominated aud his opinion appears to le shared by Lee. Cessna is non-committal.

Giving Longenecker all the votes he claims and the vote put down for other candidates, other than Quay, and the lieaver statesman is left more thau required to nominate him an the first ballot. The enemies of Quay are trying to make capital against him on his Pardon Board record, involving the pardon of Kemble and bis connection with the stock siH-culating scheme by which the State Treasury was used to back up him and other officials engaged in the business. They are using the argument that if he should be nominated Republican success would be imperiled, notwithstanding the large majority for Blaine last year. With Longenecker they declare a nomination would be equivalent to an election. Quay was delighted to hear to-night that be would receive the suport of the Senatorial delegation from the district represented by Senator Emery, who had been lighting him (Quay).

Chairman Cooper is getting in a little quiet work for Quay, who he says will be nominated on the first ballot. The highest claim made by Longenecker on the first ballot is 80. Very few elegates have thus far ar rived. HIEI.OEBN OF BIRCH. Meeting of the Ntate Tearhers' Ano-ciatioa To-Day.

Mount McGkkgok, K. July 6. The day with General Grant has been, on the whole, one of physical quiet, although he suffered considerably during the morning, which, however, yielded to treatment later iu the day.

It need not I defined as Heaven, or Paradise, or Hades, or Nirvana; but we mu-t not be confronted with siieuee: there must be iu some way recognition of and sympathy with this deeptwt yearning of the soul.

The word reciprocity is used to denote the quid pro quo which inheres iu all our relations ith each other theyrct' tufce of the commou lot, those mutualities which the mere fact of living makes our privilege and our duty the debit and credit of everyday affairs; tint roll of our liability and assessments as members of the great firm of humanity Among all delusions by which we rlatler ourselves in this market of life, I know of none more honest and more vain than this, that we are Actually independent, that we depend only upon ourselves, that no one is necessary to us.

Perhaps not one of us is without a personal convincing experience of the impossibility of standing alone in this world. 1 suspect a brief experience is sunieient; it is one of which we are not proud, and which we are nut eager to exhibit. In truth, it is ridiculous if uot pathetic, this attempt to get along alone ridiculous because so plainly-to other eyes a failure; pathetic because to one's own eyes the ridiculousness is so invisible. Occasionally a conspicuous example illustrates our proposition. Witness beautiful, wayward Thoreau, astride of his preferred pumpkin in his wilderness, lord over no man, lorded over by none, and believing himself independent of heart, indetemleut of head, as he was iudej)eiident in all material affairs.

Vet let his owu charming confession, albeit unconscious, show us how his human heart, unloaded itself of love to sylvan creatures. What perfect reciprocity of arleetbni was between him and the squirrels, birds, fishes How his large, involuntary lovingness depended on them for companionship! How that intellect which he deprived of CONVEliSK WITH THE LIVING. Yet held communion in that wilderness with the sages and seers of the past How his mind depended ou their intellectual iHiitura'Jtri: none the less, to Thoreau, vamoruit'Ttt because wholly ghostly.

The crowds- in the street be gan to increase irv size and boldness. features which culminated in the attack on Van Buren street car near the corner of Sabev street. The car left the barns on Western avenue in charge of a "scab" conductor and driver, and was guarded hy fuar policemen. It was closely followed bv a second car similarly" manned. At Boliey atul Van Buren streets a crowd of over three huudred men and boys had llectd.

Thev were in sympathy with the s'jrikers. They begau hooting and tthng at the "scabs." The police iu the two ears i limned irom their seats and made a charge on the crowd to disperse it, thus lea vint. the cars, which contained a few passengers, practically unprotected. pxrtiou ot the crowd made a and seizing the car threw it from- the rack and upset it into the ditch. The horses were cut loose and turned ad-rift.

The driver and conductor severely iduhlied and tied for their lives. Several shots were tired by the police, but without idieer. The patrol wayons tilled with police were quickly summoned to the spoF, and alter disjer.sing the crowd, es- rorit-tt the disabled, car back to the barns tttached to another vehicle. A second attack was soon made, this nine on a Madison street car, a little west of Bobev street. The conductor was badly beaten and the car overturned into the litch.

The team was cut loose, as in the former case. -rtieers arrived promptly on the scene mit the assailants to flight. Two arrests were made. The cars are stained with blood drawn from the "scab" conductors aud drivers. About two Lake streetcars were attacked and thrown from the track by a howling mob.

The police rushed to the scene ami the crowd was soon nut to flight. Nobody was hurt. At i M. the cars were run into the barns at Western avenve. It had been given out by the company that the ears would continue to run up to 7 o'clock.

The disturbance above de scribed, however, resulted in all cars being at, once retnrned to the barns, aud accord ing to the statement of an officer, will not be started out again before morning. No demonstration whatever has been made bv the strikers or their allies to night, aud no definite action forto-morrow has been decided upon. The apparent in tention of the street car company is to start out its cars with the aid of the police again in the morning, but there are no indications that its efforts will be more successful than they were tday. Judginc from remarks made by the strikers, there is a prospect of a more serious disturbance, to-morrow that of this afternoon. The Secretary of the Car Drivers' and Conductors' Association told a reporter to-night that the strikers had purposelykepf away from the barns and streets to-day.

Their object was to avoid a disturbance, and ascertain bow many men the company could procure to run its cars. The events of the day had shown that the force was only sufficient to man twenty cars. The Secretary added that to-morrrw there might be trouble. The President of the Association to-night addressed a letter to President Jones, of the West Division Company, notifying him of the willingness of the strikers to arbitrate, of their choice for arbitrator, and requesting early information as to the company's proposed action con-t truing the matter. 21-4 P.

The City Council, after devoting considerable time to discussion of the strike, has just appointed a committee of five of its members to hold an early conference wirh the Mayor, street car company and strikers, with the object in view of bringing about a peaceful settlement of the existing differences.

The miners of the Wheeling district, acting upon suggestions made by the min ing officials of this city, have formed an organization, intending to be an auxiliary or part of a general organization to be composed of miners of the Uhio, Kanawha and the Mouoogahela valleys. The coal from all the points named enters into practically the same market, aud it is claimed that if the proposed association can be made a success it will be a step toward maintaining beiter prices. Secretary Flannery, of the Union Association in this city, claims that this is the only tract ical and successful way of settling a question that has for years worked against the interests of the miners, deductions in one section he holds are often the cause of making a reduction throughout all competing districts.

The reduction in the Hocking Valley is cited as an example. The work of forming an association in the Kanawha and in the Ohio regions will be undertaken in a short time. OFFICIAL MINKliS TO MEET.

According to a preconcerted arrangement the employ of nearly all the sawmills in the city struck this morning for ten hours as a day's work. The strikers paraded the streets tiuO strong, carrying banners with the words: Ten Hours a Pay's Work." They were joined by men at nearly very mill, and in consequence all the mills on the river with the exception of one or two where the demand was con fried are shut down. The strikers are confident of victory, the mill probably more so as they claim they have more luiijlHTon docks now than they want. The strikers are mostly Inlanders. The mill owners advise the strikers to appoint a committee aud have the matter settled bv arbitration.

AM M.KI lO.NSl'IKUT. The Attempt to Sec tire Pardon for Dorner 4'auwlng Trouble. The attempt to have Kmil Dorner, who was convicted and is now in the Peniten-tiarp for illegal voting, pardoned, it is know led to an effort on the part of workingineu to frustrate the scheme. This has led to developments, it is claimed, which show that there was a much larger business in it than was at first thought. Quite a number of other gentlemen, acting independently of the workingmen, have been investigating the matter for themselves, and it is said they have found what was a regular organization for voting aliens at the last election.

It is further asserted that under this arrangement there were a good many more alien votes than that of Kmil Homer cast. The persons who have been working on the matter have already gained such facts that they will hold a meeting to-morrow-evening in the office of Thomas A. Armstrong, at the Labor Tribute, to consider what action is necessary. The details of the developments will then lie made known, although they are now withheld from the public. The conviction of Horner and his subsequent imprisonment, it is said, caused the organization which was securing the alien votes to give him assurance that he would be pardoned provided he said noth ini alout the efforts in that line.

The meeting to-morrow night promises to spoil this arrangement. MI KFII TALKS. lie Will Insist 1 pun ree Foot Pan-sage Over the River.
