Fear for the Other.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, Dec 14-There is just
now a good deal of commotion In Methodist
circles in Wisconsin One of their bright
est, ablest and most popular ministers, the
Rev. Henry Faville, who has been pastor of
a church at Oshkosh for year or more has
signifed his intention to withdraw from
that church and enter the Congregational
ministry. The change is greatly deplored
by his Methodist brethren. His twin brother
the Rev. John Faville, is pastor of the Di
vision street church, Fond du Lac
serving his second or third year
These two gentlemen resemble each
other SO closely that they have
to be seen together to tell one from the
other They graduated from the district
school together, dressed alike, entered
Lawrence university at the same
time, graduated at the same time, went to a
theological institute together, graduated

Hopeful Outlook for Isailmakers.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 1.-THE general
manager of the American Iron and Steel
association makes the following important
statement: "a gratifying indication Of the
improvement of business in this country is
found in the fact that the steel-rail
companies which, it will be remembered,
made a compact to limit their output to
what then seemed likely to equal the wants
Of the railroads for 1886, have already, be-
fore the beginning Of the year, so nearly
sold the whole of that estimated total that
they have now increased the stipulated out
put by 225,O0e tons, making the present
limit for 1887 ,OOO, 600 tons. Indeed, a num-
Der of the manufacturers had already sold
up to or beyond their allotment for
the entire year before this action was taken,
being unwilling that any appearance Of
unreadiness or inability to meet any legiti-
mate demand should exist. There is, there
fore, not the least reason to fear that any
buyer of rails who can satisfy the rail-
makers his ability to pay for his purchases
will be unable to supply his wants at prices
unaffected by a restriction"
