The .m S.@S N. Iron a w sasasss'rA

Gazette Of Yesterday.
A committee Of representatives Of the
iron manufacturers met on Saturday and
considered the refusal Of the puddlsn TO
yield 10 their demand that the contract
and sliding scals Of last year be renewed
but came 10 no conclusion looking 10 de.
inate action In the matter, and from this
II IL understood that the manufacturer
who are engaged upon specialties, or who
may feel Obliged TO continue running their
establishments, will renew the contract
while others not 80 situated will not dc
90. The manufacturers consider the iron
workers amalgamation arbitrary in their
demands, and feel that in complying with
them they cannot compete with Eastern
manufacturers, who have no such amalga'
nation 10 contend with.
The puddlers held another meeting on
Saturday evening, and determined TO In
sist that the old scale be renewed, and tC
20 TO work on no other terms. It Il
stated that a number Of firms have signed
4 renewal Of the scale, including Painter
& Sons, Lindsay & McCutcheon, Lewis
Oliver & Phillips, Keystone Mill, Apollo
Mil, William CLARK & Co, and Crescent
Steel Works.

TIE suggestion Of IN English protee-
torate over Turkey-or at least over
Asiatic Turkey-is met by a suggestion
Of an Austrian ~pretectorate over Euro
pean Turkey. This, 1t is said, will be
warmly supported by Prince Bismarck
and one can readily believe that to be
true, since It Is in entire harmony with
the popular German idea Of attracting
Austria to the East, that she may slack
en- her hold on her German provinces
in the West, and in time release
them, that they may unite with the
German Empire, and SO bring all Ger
man.speaking people under one flag. 1t
is not unlikely that England, France and
the other powers will consent to this ar.
raugement. The only objection will
come from Russia, who will naturally not
willingly see herself cut off from all the
territorial fruits Of victory by the oecu.
patton of Turkey by England and Aus.

On Thursday afternoon Rev. s. B. Bar,

lecture on the Rice Foundation. Th.

how tact and care, prayer and faith are

guing that unless q man or woman has
something to do for Christ advancement

Cure Of Lourdes.
1t seems that many persons understood
the figures mentioned in former letters,
from the Cure Of Lourdes, 10 represent
large sums; to rectify the mistake, the
following explanation is given:
II takes Eve francs, with a few centimesl
more or less, according 10 the price oil
gold, to equal one dollar, and there are
one hundred centimes in one franc, so
that Eve confines are worth one sou,
French money, or about one cent United
States money. The above mentioned draft
for 1895 francs was exactly sixty.fiye
dollars.
Will the Catholic papers who have SO
generously assisted this good work, by

THE INVESTIGATION

The following candid article from
the New York Journal of Commerce,
OF May %, "a perfectly Independent
paper will well repay %perusal;
at was not safe at first to predict
what curse the investigation would
take or exactly for what purpose It
was originated, and a true estimate OF
its character depended wholly on the
answer TO these questions. If the OBJ
ject Of the measure was TO unsettie the
work of the Electoral Commission, and
to remove The present incumbent from
tho Presidential chair, the great mass
of good citizens OF all parties would
feel that, however just the result in
itself considered, it could only be reach
ed through a great National excite
ment too costly for patient contempla-
ton. But if the purpose OF the inves-
tigation is to settle the great question
not only left unsettled by that Com.
mission, but which 1t absolutely refused
to consider, the mass of the people will
most heartily accept 1t.
There never was a sorer disappoint-
ment than was ielt in every honest
breast than when the Commission that
was devised to settle the great contro-
versy which threatened to plunge the
nation into a new civil war merely de-
termined the succession TO the Presi-
dency OF technical grounds, and refused
by a vote of eight TO seven TO make
any investigation that would show who
was honestly elected. II the tribunal
had properly taken up the inquiry,
gathered in all the available testi-
mony, heard the arguments and ap.
peals from both sides, and then decided
IN favor of the present incumbent
while the result would not have salts
fed any Of the political partisans on
the defeated side, the people, having
secured at least the form Of a trial,
would have acquiesccd in il without
any serious murmuring. The refusal
of even this form was a great mistake,
