Near Wuter Street Such Was the Agreement Work has been commenced on the making of a new private roadway from Water street to the Union brewpry of the Howell & Klhg, Co. The roadway extends close to what was the old Ht. James' church, which property was secured by the brevylng company some time ago by purchase. The new road will be ten feet wide and will, be paved with vitrified brick on a concrete base. It will have a concrete curb and a, steel binding. The brick being used Is similar to that laid on the city streets last year and this year. The contractor is Bolton G. Coon, and the foreman of the work la J. B. Koberts. The new roadway will be a great convenience to the brewing company, as it will eliminate the necessity of sending out the brewery's product by way of Thomas street, which has a very steep grade closc to the brewery. It will also prevent any congestion of wagons near the brewery, as Thomas ptreet can be used as an entrance art/J the new road as an exit. be Arrests d. Jj. V. Station. With Trustees. Pittsburg. Antonio Surrlano, an Italian, who was employed on the Lehigh Valley ballast train, was cut to plecas by a coal train about 6:30 o'clock last ovenlng at the Lehigh Valley station, on Water street.

As it approached the station (he train did not slkckeri and Antonio, who wished to yet off, decided to Jump. He leaped from the train and fell headlong across one of the tracks. His briftlver witnessed the accident from a nearby oar but made no effort to jump until the train slackened up near the Ferry bridge. The body of ihe dead man was fearfully mangled. The head was completely severed from the body and the brains were scattered along the tracks. One of the legs was cut off below the knee. As soon as the dead man's brother Jumped from the train he rushed back to the station. When-lie saw the remains of his brother he acted ns if seized by a temporary spell of insanity and the police, fearing he would do injui-y to himself, locked him up in jail for a few hours, until he recovered.

St. Petersburg, July 18.—Evidence of the government's consternation over Interior conditions is found in its abrupt recession from the position It assumed in respect of the all Russian zemstvo congress. It practically was decided this morning to let the zemstvolsts meet in Moscow without serious molestation, although it Is understood semiofficially that the governor general of that city was instructed privately t* make a prolonged show of resisting' the popular will and to deal out the concession grudgingly. Pittsburg, July 18.—Thomas W. Davis, James C. Smith and Charles Crawford were found guilty in Criminal court of a charge of conspiracy, i The suit is the outgrowth of the al- ' leged stufling of the ballot box of the Fourteenth district of the Thirteenth ward, at the February election.

New York, July 18.—From a director of {he Equitable Life Assurance society it was learned that Thomas F. Ityan, who recently purchased the stock holdings of James H. Hyde, has mnde an agreement with the three trustees of the Ryan holdings and the newly elected directors to sell the stock he purchased back to the Equitable society.Mr. lloot advises the mayor that In the face of the refusal of District Attorney John C.

Witte. chief peace plenipotentiary, with limitations devised by the grund ducal party which would prevent the statesman from obtaining a cessation of hostilities in the fur east save 011 terms impossibly advantageous to Russia. The maneuver had the double object of forcing the popular attitude back to a war basis if possible and of injuring the famous diplomat In the eyes of the public.

A foreign pool room in fixeter was the scene of a fight last evening that had its beginning in some unknown manner. Several foreigners were engaged in the fracas,and all were more or less bruised up as a result of the general encounter. Those who were interested would not say on what particular grounds the light took place but It had the appearance and the results of a free-for-all. In the course of the trouble pool cues were put into use as weapons and made their presence felt in several directions. One of the participants, John IJarfsky, received a heavy blow from a cue and as a result one of his arms was broken and the lieshy pnrt of the member was painfully bruised. He received medical attention. Mayor Weaver and Judge Gordon last week requested that the district attorney, In drawing up indictments against Councilman Frank 11. Caven and John II11I, former chief of the bureau of filtration, should bring the charge of conspiracy with certain other persons to defraud the city. Councilman Caven is under ball for violating his councllmanlc oath In being Interested In pity contracts, and former Chief Hill is under bonds to answer charges of forgery and falsification of records in connection with contracts for the construction of the city's filtration plants.

Has Attracted Outsiders. Through this agreement Mr. Ryan must return to the Equitable society all of the Hyde holdings, the majority stock of the concern, which he purchased, and permit the title to same to pass into the corporation and through that to the policy holders. This, it was pointed out, will more thoroughly and more speedily mutualize the society than any other procedure. Must Keep Hands Off. FINANCIAL AND OOMMKKCIAIj, M. Witte lent himself to the project, apparently—that Is, he chimed In with the position that no peace proposal injurious to Russian national pride would be considered for a moment by the representatives of lOinperor Nicholas. His superficial views were uttered in a statement he made for publication from his villa on Yalagin island. They of course represented merely the mental fencing of the master diplomat.

Those who are interested in this proposed new .company are reticent in expressing themselves about it and have nothing to say as to their plans. It simply means that if a good opening appears the company will enter the contest for the contract, and if they secure it will locate permanently here. As it will be an expensive undertaking to locate a new plant, the proposition will have to be a good one before it will be considered. James W.

Mr. Leslie said that he had entered the race at the solicitation of his enemies and would soon come out With a platform that would show where he stood on the court house question. He invited the newspapers to rap him, the harder the rap the better he would like it. He had not made up his mind today as to whether he would seek the Democratic nomination or would ruji independently. "I'll win, no matter what way X try it," he said.

The officers and of the Northern Electric Railway- company Constable pnluted the scene as he saw it, but he was not satisfied with merely copying nature. It was to him so real a companion thut, in the first place, he tried to make it live in his pictures that the clouds might move and overhang the spot, that Its atmosphere might penetrate every part of the scene and that trees and wuter and the very plants by the roadside might mpvc and have their being In It, and, secondly, he put his own personal affection into Ills representation. Then, too, In the matter of color, which cunnot be Judged from the reproduction, he dared to paint nature greeu, as he saw. it, and the skies blue, with tho sunshine either yellow or glaring white. It Is, then, because of this closer faithfulness to the hues of nature aud to the effects of movement, of atmosphere and of light and because he interpreted nature uccordlng to his own mood that Constable is culled the father of modern landscape, for these are the quamles that particularly occupied the artists of the nineteenth century.- St. Nicholas.  are: President, A.
