Work at ROach's ShipYard Progressing
as Though Nothing had Happened.

Work at ROach's ShipYard Progressing
as Though Nothing had Happened.
CHESTER, PA, Aug. 9.-The usual num-
Der of men, 1900, filed through the gate at
Roach's shipyard this morning and went
to work as if the fire had not occurred.
Those who work about the yard, known as
outside men, were set to cleaning away
the debris of the fire. An examination Of
the tools shows them to be somewhat dam
aged, but not enough to render them unfit
for use. Temporary sheds are being
erected and the tools repaired. Mr.. Roach
says that the burned machinery will be
in operation in ten days. He is upon the
ground overseeing the work. The other
shops belonging to the establishment have
facilities to go on with their work, so that
there will be no cessation of work. Plans
for new buildings have already been
made, the material is upon the ground,
and a busy scene is presented. AS yet it
is impossible to estimate the loss. The
adjustment of the losses will not interfere
with progress on either the government
cruisers or merchant ships now under
construction.
ROACH's TELEGRAM.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-John Roach to-
day telegraphed to Admiral Simpson,
President of the Advisory Board, relative
to the fire in his yard at Chester, Pa, last
night: "No damage done to any part of
the government work; the fire was con-
fined to the planning shop" Naval Con-
structOr Hanscom telegraph sthat work on
the cruisers will be delayed slightly, but
NOT at all on the Dolphin. No govern
ment property was destroyed by the fire.

IRON AND STEEL WORKERS.
The Amalgamated Associations Affairs
Kent Very Secret


Kept Very Secret.
PITTsBURG, Aug. 9.-The national con-
vention of the Amalgamated Association
of Iron and Steel Workers went into Sc
cret session upon assembling this morn
ing for the purpose of hearing the report
of various committees. After the ad-
iournment the officers and delegates re-
fused to make public their proceedings.
One delegate was found who volunteered
the information that the convention so far
had been harmonious, and that the ques-
tion of adjustment of the nailers'
and feeders wages had not yet
been brought up. There was
not nearly as much dissatisfaction among
them, he said, as had been reported.
The convention expects to finish its la
bors and adjourn finally Tuesday evening
Speaking of the steel nails, delegate
stated to-day that if the manufacturers
should make a success of steel nail max
ing it would ruin the business for work
men, as few men could do the work of a
hundred. In Wheeling alone 500 men
would be thrown out of employment.

FAILURES IN BUSINESS.
A Large Marble Firm of Philadelph
Make an Assignment.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 9.-George VI.
Jacoby q Son, one of the largest firms of
marble dealers in this city, have made an
assignment for the benefit of their cred
itors. Owing to the complicated state of
their affairs the liabilities and assets of
the nrm are at present unknown. The
difficulties are attributed to the sudden
termination of a system of accommoda-
tion notes between the embarrassed firm
and Victor A. Sartoni & Son,
whereby both concerns has for years been
enabled to carry on business. Jacoby &
Son dealt with SartOni il Son, the senior
member of that firm being a special
partner with Jacoby & Son. The pur-
chases of the latter were made on time
through the medium of notes, and when
these fell due they were paid in part and
the balance renewed. The accumulation
OF these notes, it is said, induced Sartoni
q Son to make demand for their final
settlement. Being unable to meet the
demand Jacoby & Son made an assign
ment.
