Probable Execution of Four Siam.
ese Prfncesses.

ese Prfncesses.
The Indian Statesman says: There
are rumors that three or four princesses
of Siam and two servants have been ac-
cused of stealing gold chains, diamonds
and precious stones. The chains, dia-
monds :and other precious stones that
we're attached to the Kings sword had
been taken away, aud imitation chains
and stones had replaced them. These de-
predations, it is rumored, were made dur
ing the late reign, but have only recently
been discovered. Some say those ac-
cused of the theft have received ninety
lashes each. The servants are to be ex-
ecuted, and the princesses disposed Of as
the law provides for persons of their
rank, if found really guilty of the theft.
Others say the ladies of rank who are
implicated are being tried, and it is not
yet known what their punishment will
be.
"If there is any basis for the rumors,
and if the princesses should be impl-
Gated and found guilty, their sentence
will doubtless be death. The execution
of princes and princesses would be at
some prominent temple. They would
be bound and fastened in bag, block
of chanwood of triangular shape would
be placed on the ground, and the fas-
tened body turned face downward, so as
to bring the neck down to the chin on
the triangular block. At given signal
the first executioner, after raising his
chanwood cudgel. would strike the fatal
blow on the back of the neck, and the
three other executioners, similarly arm
ed, would continue their blows upon the
body until it entirely ceased to culver.
The bag containing the body would then
be weighted and thrown into the river.
This, it is stated, is the way which his
Royal Highness Kroma Luang Rak Kon-
nasset was executed in lS49."

IRON ITEMS.

In 1853 Illinois rolled but little more than
one thousand tons of r. r. bar. Six years
later. over twenty-five thousand tons. Last
wear ninety thousand. She now ranks next
to PENNSYLVANIA as bar rolling State. One
mill IN Missouri can roll fifty thousand tons
of bar per annum, A Michigan mill turned
out fourteen thousand tons In 1871. y
Wisconsin mill produced double the fore
going amount of r. r. bar same year.
There has been a new departure in west
em iron manufacture since 1867. Previous
70 that wear Missouri had only charcoal fur
naces. She has now five first class hard
coal furnaces. Since 1867 Indiana has been
manufacturing about so, ,o00 tons ofpig iron
per annum. Illinois produced 65,000 tons
pia iron from furnaces near Chicago LAST
wear. Missouri manufactured over $4,000
tons, and Michigan nearly 100000 tons OF
PIC iron in 1871.
The yield of iron ore in Missouri last year
was considerably over a quarter OF NH
lion tons The yield of iron ore about
Lake Superior was nearly million OF tons
In the same time.
The iron interest is working west and
northwest. Though Wisconsin has done
but Iittle in this line heretofore, her peeuI-
iar relation to the Lakes, to the iron MINES
and the great Northwest, in connection with
the immediate development of the long
neglected northern half OF the State VIII
wonderfully stimulate the manufacture OF
iron throughout her borders. The situation
