Southern Furnaces In Blast.

A Chattanooga (Tenn.) correspondent
of the Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution writes
''The Constitutions correspondent has had
an interview with one of the most promi.
nent iron men in this section concerning
the iron outlook. During the converse
tion he said: Since November the 10th
there has been constant increase in the
iron business throughout this section.
Work has been resumed at five ore banks
in North Alabama, and fully 800 coke
creased demand from the furnaces. Ore
has been advanced 10, per cent. within ten
days. The manager Of thelargest. furnace
in this neighborhOod states he has orders
TO run the furnace four months. He has
refused to contract to deliver pig-iron at
present price after January /. The Citico
furnace is filling an order for 5000 tons
for Philadelphia foundry"

The SheriH's Story,

From the Chicago Herald.
Talking about prisoners jumping
through car windows to get away from their
keepers" remarked an old sheriff, as be
kept his eye on two men who were
handcufied together and occupied the
seat I'm front of him, " let me tell you lit
tie story. About fifteen years ago was
taking chap up TO Joliet one night, and
as always thought myself good enough
for any one man, and as he was q quiet
one, anyhow, / took the clamps off him.
had had him in charge several months,
and / thought him q big coward; SO when
he asked permission to go to the end of
the car let him 60, feeling confident he
would never Jump with the train going
forty miles an hour. He didn't come back
for him. The window was wide open, and
it was too plain he had made the Jump.
| stopped the train and we ran back, got
out lanterns and looked for him. Iexpect-
ed to find him dead by the side of the track,
but not sign of him did discover, OK.
cept that / found his hat where he had
jumped. The train went ON and ! stayed
there, swore in posse from among o lot
of section hands, and offered q reward
But / never found him-not even q track
nor sign, save that hat. 1t was always
one of the greatest mysteries to me how
he got away. Ten years afterward Icame
across that man in the pen At Joliet,
where he was teu-year burglar. He told
me how he got away, and laughed so over
it that I'll bet the day he got chance to
tell me of his cleverness was the bright
est one he had passed In many q year.
He had simply climbed out of the win.
dow, reached up the ventilators with his
hands, and pulled himself up to the top OF
the coach. There he lay and heard US talk
about catching him. When the train went
on with him and without me he was very
happy. AS soon as he got chance at one
of the stations he jumped upon freight
train, and from that ont was nothing but a
common tramp"

The CHARGES Against Swain.

The President has ordered a court Of IL
quiry 70 investigate the charges made
against Judge Advocate General Swain
by the banker. Bateman. It viii be IT,
membered that Bateman charged that
Swain attempted TO defraUd him out Of
5000. and that he was guilty Of conduct
unbecoming an officer and a gentleman.
The day after the charges were
made they were withdrawn. but
there remained a suspicion that there had
been crO0kedness Of some kind. Swaim's
reply 10 the charges was not satisfactory.
It was incomplete and evasive. Under
the circumstances the President could
hardly have done otherwise than to order
an investigation. The impression on the
public mind now Is that the fear Of ex-
posure forced swain into a settlement
that met Bateman's demands. Within the
last two years there have been a good
many scandals growing out Of transac-
tons Of army officers, and more than one
army officer has BEEN found guilty Of dis
graceful conduct. The President, perhaps,
thinks that il is about time 70 put an end
