The Fayette Coke and Furnace Co. have
orders for thirteen cars OF raw coal per day
from Eastern iron firms. Work in the ore
slope at the Redstone works is being pushed
along rapidly. and in about two weeks they
will begin shipping the famous Blue
Springs ore. The new ovens ut Redstone
works are about completed. The total
number Of ovens at these works now is Sl3,
which will manufacture thirty-fye cars of
coke per day. The fifty-fye coke ovens
which Bliss & Marshall are building on the
Kyle place in George township are nearing
completion. 1t is thought, should the
weather be favorable, that they will be
finished by November 1st.-Er.
The effect OF the contemplated boycott
ting, even II successfully carried to the ex-
tent threatened, would not be confined
merely to killing six or eight OF the bosses,
but the effect would be alike ruinous to at
least six or eight hundred mechanics and
merchants, the amount of whose business
depends solely upon the amount Of bust
ness done by the potteries, for should this
beycotting be so successful as to close the
doors Of every white ware mandatory in
the town it would ct the same time close
the doors OF ten times the number of shops
and stores dependent upon the general
success Of the business OF the town. 1t is
safe to say that for every pottery door
closed ten doors Of mechanics and other
business men would be shut, more or less
efiectually, many Of whom, too, would be
Knights OF Labor engaged in other branches
of business. -Potter's Gazette.
SrEuBENvILLE, October "a, - The new
Rockingham pottery is going right ahead,
and there seems TO be nothing in the way
of success. 1t is to have'a capital stock Of
$4,000, half Of which will be taken in
Steubenville and one-half elsewhere. Soil
citors are now out, and up TO 10 o'clock
this morning 5000 were subscribed. All
that our capitalists need is TO have faith in
Steubenville's future, and Steubenville
viii be q great manufacturing city.
CARBON HILL, o., October A--The strike
Of the miners at this place has been salts.
factorily settled. The strike was brought
about by Misunderstanding about collect
ing one dollar month through the Office
for the doctor. The matter was settled the
first of the week and all men resumed work
AGAIN both in the Carbon Hill mine and in
