one of the oldest steamboat captains on the local rivers, dieel last evening at 7:45 o'clock at his home, 4S.H1 Lytic street. Hazel wood. He was born in Germany, IHcember 3d, and came of thrifty parents. When a young man of IS years he set out with his brother for America and came at once to the vicinity of Pittsburg. It was nesirly 50 years ago that he entered the employ of Captain W.

H. Brown, father of Captain S. S. Brown. His beirinnine was humble and his first work was that of driving mules In the coal pit at what is now known as Brown station, where one of the early rlve-r mines was located Some years later he went cm the iiex and served in various capacities until tie attained the rank of captain.

In the- early years of his river career he was engaged in steamboating in the pools of the Mo-nongahela. Afterward he served em the Ohio and In the New Orleans and Ijouis-ville trade, of recent years he had been running to the latter point. Among the boats he served as captain were the Webster, the original Jim Brown, Joseph Bigle-y, Harry Brown, Alice Brown and Charlie Brown. He was in the1 New Orleans trade on the Harry Brown for l' ears. His brother, the only relatue outside of his immediate family in this country, died a year ago in Ohio.

Can-tain Glaser was "a member of the An-eie tit Order of United Workmen, and attended the Christian Church in llairi-wooei. He is survived by his widow, six sons and one daughter: John Adiem HOW RECORDER MAY BE SEATED. Continued From First Page. be used to carry out the governor's mandate in the matter of seating the new recorders for Pittsburg and Allegheny, everyone seems to think that is the line of action Governor Stone Is figuring upon if his orders should be resisted by the prfsnt mayors and the machine that backs them. Lawyers see nothing else to ilj.

And the administration leaders don't seem to be worrying about the governor's ability to get his people into their places after he has named them. It is expected he will land the recorder of Pittsburg in his place, then allow the city nvichine to go into court and contest the right of his appointee to hold the job. The machine had intended to hold the fort until the decision had been reached. When the courts are called upon to decide whether or not the ripper is constitutional, they will also have to decide whether or not the governor's appointments will have to be confirmed by the Senate, according to the procedure the governor is alleged to have decided upon. Inasmuch as the litigation would be long drawn out, the Assembly will have adjourned before a decision is handed down.

That will relieve an embaraslng situation. It is one of the points thai the payroll crowd of Pittsburg had figured on most hopefully. They know this Senate could not be induced to support Governor Stone in his appointments. If the governor can force his men into the city halls in spite of the he has obviated the necessity of submitting his appointments this session, and the Senate will not be in session again until the recordership ficht of is on. It is not improbable, either, that former Senator Andrews will ally himself with the Flinn organization in Allegheny county to prevent Attorney General Klktn from sec uring a solid delegation of Kiktn delegates to the State convention.

However little Andrews may love Flinn. he loves Elkin less. It is a personal matter between him and the attorney general. There is an Inexpressible bitterness behind it. So that even before the mayoralty or reeordership fight of irKa there will be great battles and stormy political times.

The Democratic assemblymen who voted for the ripper, and all of them in fact, are hopeful that the Pittsburg and Allegheny county Democrats will see the opportunity that is presented to them if they will only get together and go to work.

PLEASANT QUARTERS FOR THE KEYSTONE DELEGATIONS. Row Between Committee and War Veterans Settled in Favor of the Old Soldiers Will Be Next to President.

March 1. Pennsylvania is Ri have the grtutt-tet share of honor In connection with the inaugural pageant next Morula). Never has the State been bo well represented in the National cere- i monies as she will be this year. Governor Stone will bo in command of thej second division, which will be composed almost entirely of the troops of the Keystori.3 Slate. The Pennsylvania guard will brealc all previous records of Slate representation in the inauKural pageant.

Kxtensve preparations are being mads for the recgption of the 14 regiments that will parade under command of Major General Charles The Pennsylvania boys will be quartered in the corridors or the magnificent state, war and navy building along with tha West Point cadets. This building will not accommodate all the reKlment. however, and so others will be quartered in convention hall, a commodious structure with a seating capacity of in the L. street armory, and in the Washington Light Infantry armory. It is stated that soldiers 1mm Pennsylvania will bo in line.

The tamous Washington infantry, of Pittsburg, will le a portion of the contingent, being under commanl of Captain Geil-f uss. The Americus club, of Pittsburg, will be the eacort ur.d guard of honor to the marshal of the civic grand division of the parade, having the right of line in that section. This post of honor was extended to the Americus club four years ugo, ana the favorable impression made by the organization at that time wiil be more than duplicated, it is believed, this year. The present Inauguration marks the first time the capitol ceremonies have been planned by a committee composed of en- atora and members of the House. fore the Senate has assumed complete control over the affair.

The House, under the leadership of Representative lJaizell. recently made a successful stand for recognition by refusing to pass the necessary appropriations until its demands were complied with. The dispute between the inaugural committee and the war veterans over the matter of precedence in the parade resulted to-day in a compromise, under which the veterans will form the honorary escort to the President from the WIdte House to th capitol. The veterans will not participate in the afternoon parade on the return from the eaidtol to the White Hou.se, but after the lias passed through the court of honor they will be reviewed by the President. Tho members of the Pennsylvania National guard on duty at the inaugural ceremonies at Washington next week will be provided with comfortable quarter, according to advices received by Major 1-ewls A.

Anshutu, of tlie Second brigade, from Colonel V. Richardson, division quartermaster. The Fifth, Tentli and Fourteenth regiments wiil be quartered In the old armory building. Tin Sixteen'h regiment will bo quartered in the Washington Light Infantry building. In Fifteenth street.

The Kighteenth regiment will be in the army and navy building, along with Battery IS. The Fourteenth and Kighteenth regiments will leave here Saturday night. OFF FOR WASHINGTON.

the preparation of a program for the future. It was suggested yesterday that there is a possibility that when they have carefully considered the measure they will decide that taking the matter into court would only result in ultimate defeat. If they should so decide, and advise against a contest. Senator Flinn will drop the matter where It is. and the new officers will assume their duties without being obliged to tight for them in the courts.

No one knows better than Senator Flinn the foolishness of undertaking litigation In behalf of a cause which cannot be maintained in tfte courts, and it Is not Impossible that the attorneys on his side will advise him that he is "up against It," and might as well abandon all Idea of carrying tbe tight further. W. B. Rodgcrs and Johns MoCleav. who will appear as attorneys for the new charter advocates and officers, are confident that the art Is constitutional and that the courts will so decide.

Thomas S. Bigelow declared yesterday afternoon that if the Flinn organisation attempts to knock out the new charter in the courts it will be worse defeated than it was in the Legislature. Senator Charles uohlhronm-r said: "1 have no doubt that the people who have b-en opposing the ripper intend to make a determined i.ght in the courts against It. If this I done I ex-I-ect the affairs of the city will be quite generally tied up for a year ax They are desperate now. and like dr ing men.

will grasp at a straw to a row keep off the inevitable fate wl.lcn awaits them. Their tight, however, will come to naught as they have not a leg to stand on." Lewis Is Still Obdurate. In the meantime Mayor Iiehl and City Controller Joseph K. Iewtw may get up a little lawsuit of their own in which there might be a on the charter. Controller Lewis declares that soon as the bill is signed by Governor Stone he wiil quit honoring the mayor's signature to warrants "As I the measure It abolishes the office of mayor as soon os It Incomes a law by Governor Stone signing It." sale! (he controller, "and -on as I know that the k-overnor hs signed it I will quit Issuing vouchers on the strength of warrants signed by Major Diehl I can do nothing else." Mayor lMehl Is not s.t?l.-.::ed wt'h She controller's position and may brisig an action to compel him to recognize tie mayor as long us the latter rlnimn to hoi.Hr-g ifflce.

We want the limitation on the tax-levy Ing power of councils to be removed, and the present method of levying and collecting school and other taxes continued." Brown Will Pay Salaries. Controller James Brown, of Allegheny, has to some extent (abandoned the position which he took on Wednesday after first hearing of the passage of the bill. He then raid he would pay no warrants nor countersign any until he was first compelled by the courts to do so.

Yesterday he sai that he would pay all February warrants, but none after them. "All of the; warrants," lie said, "were signed by Mayor Wyman under date of February 2S, and this will not bring them Into any dispute; If the courts are asked to pass upon the legality of their payment." When asked for the reason of this change from his previous program he said that he did not think it would be right to withhold the wages of the city employes. "They would all have money now If the warrants were not held bac by those; who till them out." he atd. "The mayor signed them all at his home, and there Is a whole bookful of them lying in Ms office awaiting to be. filled out.

At least that Is what I have been given to understand." LMrector John li. Murphy had but little to say regarding the passage of the bill. "I am glad it lias dually passed." he said, "as It was a hard light. It will benefit both cities. If I am offered the pcisition of recorder I will accept it and consider It an honor." The action yesterday of Mayor James G.

Wyman in having a new bolt placed on the door between his office and the pollen department was the cause of a lot of laughter. His clerk, Fred Ooett-man, said that it had been done to fit euro for thei major the privacy that never been a leature of his office. This only added to the joke because; it is a well-known fact that at any time the mayor wanted privacy he secured it through the! medium of Ills Inner office. In fac it is in here that all his linisutant liltlej confabs are held, and it Is as private as a thick oak door and a stout lock can make it. Ho even has a private telephone in it and has always conducted all of his private business the-re.

During the last legislative campaign it was called the "Simons and Andrews headquarters" as notwithstanding the fact that headquarters had been opened in West Diamond street, it was in the mayor's office that the star chamber sessions were held. But not content with placing a bolt on tho door, all the keys that had beeii held by the pejlice department were also demanded by and turned over to the mayor. They were carried by Office Sergeant Sydney J. BraufT, Station Sergeant James Sherry and Magistrate Henry Hunneslia-gen. All these were demanded on the ground that those having them had no right to them.

Even the scrubwoman had to give up her key. so that for the time being the mayor will have to occupy unswept quarters or have them cleaned himself. She said last night that she could not clean them because she had been "ripped out of office." In the safe in the mayor's office is also ths golden key of the Carnegie library.
