A BIG IRON WORKS.
A New Enterpriso TO Ne started ut Beaver
Falls, Pa.

PITTSBURGH, February A.-In spite oi
the dullness in the general iron trade, and
the apparent uniayorable outlook for that
industry for the coming season, several
eral gentlemen who are Of great promin'
ence in the manufacturing world, have
sufficient confidence in future restoration
Of activity to invest large amount Of capl.
tai in new enterprise.
For years past the firm Of Oliver Bros. &
Phillips and the Cambria Iron Company
have made money when other large firms
have simply been able 10 hold their own.
This was largely owing to the fact that
these firms had complete control oil the
material used in It's various stages, from
ore to manufactured specialties covered by
patents.
In order To obtain somewhat similar ad.
yantages a new firm has been formed,
composed OF Andrew Carnegie and Henry
Phipps, Of the Edgar ThomsonSteel Works;
II, w. Hartman, formerly of the Gautier
Wire Works Of JohDstown; ]. L. Ellwood,
wire fence manufacturer Of New York; Mr..
StllthI VI SlllIASus huh SAl. SehApt Va w lo-
consin. These gentlemen have purchased
about twenty acres Of land in Beaver Falls,
where they will erect works on a large scale
for the manufacture OF nail rods, wire,
barbed fence wire, &c.
The various articles Manufactured by the
company will be made from Bessemer
ingots obtained from the Edgar Thomson
steel works.
Carnegie Bros & Co. are not members Of
the new firm, as MIR. Andrew Carnegie and
Mr.. Phipps are the only members Of that
concern which have gone into the Beaver
Falls works. Neither T. NJ. Carnegie nor
D. A. Stewart, OF the Edgar Thompson
Company are interested! 1t Is understood
that some works now; standing on the prop
erty at Beaver Falls'will be left standing
and will be used. The other buildings will
be put up as soon as possible, and work
men are already on the groapd, getting Il
ready for the new works.
Atleast $50o,0OO will be invested in the
enterprise, besides the valuable patents OF
barbed wire fencing controlled by some Q
the members Of the firm. Mr.. Ellwood i
well known to the trade as having made I
! large fortune In wire fencing.

LONDON, February 24.-Mr. Forster's
destructive attack upon the Land League
and Mr.. Parnell has put, everything elie
in the shade. Ever since James Carey's
testimony, incriminating the Land League,
was made public, the House has looked TO
Mr.. Parnell to reiute the daily growing
suspicion Of the Irish leaders completely in
the crime. Appealed to and challenged
repeatedly iiom both sides Of the House,

ever been made by one member OF the
House against another, MIR. Forster de-
clared that Mr.. Parnell had either con-

THErArE OF rHETAKIFF BILL.
Il Depends on the Adoption OF n Rule
which Ia Not Likely. TO Prevail.

From Our Special Correspondent.
WAsuINoroN, February 25.-The new
rule agreed on by the House Committee on
Rules yesterday is not by any means cer-
tain to be carried tomorrow, although on
It's success partially depends the fate ofthe
Tariff bill. 1T may pass II it is recon.
structed by a conference committee; it
cannot unless it is The Democrats under
the lead Of Randall and Blackburn will
oppose its adoption probably with . solid
front It Is not certain that all the Re-
publicans will vote for il. AT present
there is no intention OF the Democrats
to resort 10 6libustering tactics to defeat 1t.
There is not quorum Of Republicans in
the city 10 force 1t through II they do. If
this rule Is adopted the same vote that car
ries 1t can carry the bill to conference.
It Is the intention of the committee to ask
for conference committee Of five members
OF each House, and II. will take this COM
mittee at least two or three days to make
up bill and report, and by this time it
will be comparatively easy for Q few men to
defeat it in either House. The chances are
against any bill passing. "f,'

WASHINGTON, February 24.-Comment
on tho Chandler. Gorringe correspondence
has been general to-day and in the main
very severeupon the Secretary Of the Navy.
His right to question the views Of an officer
upon the question OF free ships is denied
on all sides, and the matter receives the
more uniavonble comment from the fact
that Mr.. Chandler previous to entering the
Navy Department, made no secret OF the
fact that he was one Of the representatives
OF John Roach. While this relation ceased
when he became Secretary Of the Navy, the
fact that It formerly existed Is regarded by
many as a good reason why, as o matter oi
good taste, the frst letter Of the Secretary
should never have been addressed to Com
mander Gorringe.

An Ohio N. q. Makes witty Remark.
WASHINGTON, D. G., February A.-The
House had under consideration this after
noon the bill providing an appropriation
Of ten million dollars to be divided in the
states in proportion to illiteracy, for educa.
tional purposes Georgia, under the bill
will get more than any other state, her
share being over Ss00,000. Pennsylvania
will get about $S65, 900. Iowa will get the
least Of any state in proportion TO her
population, having the least percentage ol
iIliteracy. By the way, speaking OF the
fact that Iowa will receive the least pro-
portion, reminds me Of conversation
which occurred few days ago between
Judge; Taylor, oil Ohio, and Mr..
McCord, Of Iowa, which Is worth
reproduction. Judge Taylor, who Is Gar.
fields successor, Is strong protectionist.
He is very severe on free trade Republi-
cans. Unfortunately Iowa sends dele
CATION composed Of free traders, except.
ing Governor Carpenter, who Is thorough
protectionist, and Kasson, who Is diplo.
mat, and therefore on both sides Of the
question. The other day while Taylor and
McCord were discussing in friendly way
the relative illiteracy OF the States. McCord,
with evident pride, referred to Iowa as
having the least percentage OF illiteracy o.
any OF the States. "0nly two per cent,
said McCord. "Yes," replied Taylor, "and
the unfortunate aspect Of the matter is that
she sends that two per cent 10 Congress"

Conferred on Hon. I0hn w. fotter.
Nominated Minister TO spain.
WASHINGTON, February 25.-The nomi-
nation Of J. W. Foster to be Envoy Extra
ordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary Of
the United States to Spain, was received
here as pre-eminently good appointment.
1t was entire unsolicited by Mr.. Foster orhis
Indiana friends. The first intimation he
had OF Il was on Wednesday last when he
met the President in obedience to a pri-
vate note from the latter. The President
then stated that both Secretary Freling-
huysen and himself desired his acceptance
OF the position. Mr.. Foster asked two or
three days In which to decide the matter,
and subsequently suggested to Secretary
Frelinghuysen that he desired some one, or
all Of the Indiana delegation Ia
Congress might be consulted la reference
to the appointment. The Secretary
informed him he had already spoken TO
Senator Harrison Of the matter and that
the Senator replied that while he
had been pressing Others for sim
liar position, yet under the cir
cumstances he could only endorse such
IN appointment most heartily, regarding II
as very hattering compliment not only
to Mr. Foster but TO Indiana. On
learning this Mr.. Foster accepted the
position, asking sixty daysto arrange his
affairs. -.. .l.-,.....t ....'-.....
II is well known to Nj. Fosters friends
that financially he Is a loser by the change,
but coming TO him as itidid he felt he
could not In honor decline the ap.
pointment. Mr.. Foster was for six
years Minister 10 Mexico, for two
years Minister to St. Petersburg. In 1872
he was Chairman Of the Indiana Republi.
can State Committee, and for many years
prior to that had been editor and
proprietor Of the Evansville Journal,
one OF the leading papers in his
State. Since his return from ST. Petersburg
a little over a year ago, he has resided in
this city, representing certain claims in the
interest OF the Mexican government. is

GREELEY's PARTY
In Bad Way and.,Little Hope
for Them.

Washington. 16.-Dr. Cencil Bessells,
Of this city, who WIS chief ofthe sclentlhc
stsf Of thu Arctic exploring steamer
POisris in 1871, and who has also had ex-
tended Arctic experience on the coasts OF
East Greenland and Naysya Zemlya,
was asked by representative OF the
Associated Press this evening what ne
thought of the news from Smiths sound.
and the chances for the escape of Lieut.
ens5t Gonedey. He replied: Il was
afraid there might be difficulty IN COM
municating with Lady Franklin bay
stations, and in bringing the party away
from there, at the conclusion Of its work.
It is not every year that vessel can sail
up Smith sound and Kennedy channel
as the Polaris did, with Greeley's party
on board in 1881. I have letter from
Markham of the British Arctic sxpedi-
ton, written year and a half
ago or more in which he too
expressed fears that the United
States government will have trouble in
releasing and bringing home this party.
Il has bean suggested that the vessel
might still reach the Danish settlement
of Upernavik this fall and sledge party
might be despatched northward from
there up the Greenland coast to meet
Lieutenant Greeley st the mouth of
Smiths sound, but this would not be
practicable. The Greenland coast, north
of Uperuavick and around Malville bay,
is intersected by extensive glaciers which
it is impossible to cross. If sledge jour
news could be made along this coast,
Eiah Eskimos who live near the mouth
Of Smiths sound would communicate
with the Eskimos Of the Danish settle
ment, of whose existence they ale veil
aware. Especially would they be likely
to do this in times OF famine, when if
they could reach the Danish settlements
they could get food, but they never have
done it, simply because il is not practical
BILE, even for them, and still less so for
white men. think it too late to do any
thing fer the relief of Greeley's party this
fall.
London, l6.-Sir George Mares. the dis
tinguished Arctic explorer, writes the
Times 8 few hopeful words to the friends
and relatives Of those composing the
Greeley exploration. He says there is
still hope that Lieutenant Greeley may
hsve reached Port Foulke late in the
season.
Washington, 17,-Lincoln, Secretary
Chandler and Commodore English had a
consultation this morning for the Dur-
pose of discussing the question of at
tempting the relief Of the Greeley party
this fall. After the conference Secretary
Chandler sent word to DR.. Bessels, the
well-known explorer, that he would like
to confer with him upon the subject.
