pittsburg' = Blast Furnace

Nine of the twelve blast furnaces in
Pittsburg and Immediate vicinity are
now in blast, producing about 5000
gross tons of pig iron each week, an
average of $50 tons each. Ii they run
at this rate for whole year they will
produce go, 900 tons or "eorjp o""-r'qhtd
of the total production Of all the fur
naces in the United States last year
(the e,tiratp production in ISIS being
1852, 900 tons OF 1000 tb. equal 70 ;.
l.6, 1856 tons Of ., 24o h.. An idea Of
the enormous capacity of the furla'"s
may be obtained when il is stated that
their average rate OF production is a
lout s., times as great as the average
rate Of production Of all the furnace, III
blast in the country n ISIS, and that
if all the furnaces were Of the sam"
capacity as the Pittabnrg furnace, it
would only take about seventy-iour

Auarauttue vs.. yellow Fever

DR.. Vanderpool, in charge o! the
quarantine station at New York, in his
recent report to the quarantine commits
sion of that city, states that from the
9th of June last until the last of Sep
TENDER, there was not all interval Of
three days in which the bay OF New
York was free from yellow fever brought
by vessels arriving from infected ports.
lie ascribes the absence of any excite
ment from this cause among the people
of New York to the thorough manner
in which the quarantine regulations
were carried out. He ventures also to
assert that New Orleans would have
been as exempt from yellow fever as
New York if its quarantine had not ig-
nored the elementary principles that
govern such institutions III other places.
"Two principles,' he says, must be
regarded, first, the lhcu bative period Of
the disease and, second, It's mode or
,aann-r Of transmission. These recog
uized and Le is OF the opinion that a
quarantine at New Orleans could be
made as effective As at New York.
Nevertheless, he holds that the way to
deal with yellow fever Is to attack it
where it originates. AS he regards lla-
wanna as the principle hot bed of this
terrible epidemic, he suggests that
through President Hayes 1.-THE govern
ment of Spain be solicited to unite with
this government nthe appointment OF
an international commission, who shall
proceed TO Havana with a view to eX-
anime the sanitary surroundings OF
that city and their relations to the pro.
pagation Of the scourge, and that the
Spanish government be earnestly re
questei to carry out fully the Joint re-
concentrations of such commission. y
There is sound sense in this proposition,
and if the investigation were conducted
by such commission as would maxi
their work thoroughlit might accomplish
an infinite deal OF good.

Painful Accident.

On Saturday morning Harry Deval-
longer, an employee at the Lobdell Car
Wheel Co.'S Works, met with very
painful accident. 1t appeals that Mr..
ID. with others were loading car wheels
on truck, when his right leg caught
between the truck and large piece of
iron, thus spraining his right leg and
bruising his left leg also. The work
men seeing the position in which he
was placed at once went to his assis-
lance and conveyed him to his home at
Third and Poplar streets. A physician
was summoned who prescribed the ne
cessary remedies, and this morning he
was doing as well rs could be expec'
ted under the circumstances. Mr.. ID.
has been very unfortunate, his wife be-
ing 4 sufferer for months from that
dreadful disease, consumption.
