PRESIDENT WEIHE,

or the ~Amalgamated Association, In the
City.
William Weihe, President of the Anal
gamated Association of Iron and Steel
Workers, arrived in the city yesterday,
and held a conference with u number Of
the members of the Association here, most
of whom were n%ailerS. What theeXact ma
ture of their conference was could not be
learned, but it is said to be in reference to
presenting the new PittSburg scale to the
manufacturers in this city, A reporter
made an attempt to interview the genial
President, hut he could not be found at his
hotel last evening.
About two o'clock this morning Mr..
Weihe was seen at the Stamm House, but
he refused to say anything concerning his
business in Wheeling, and stated that he
had remained away from the hotel on pur-
pose to avoid being interviewed.
Yesterdays Pittsburg Dispatch says {:
Some of Chess, Cook & Co. s nail machines
started up yesterday, but all the feeders
were not on hand. This OccaSiOned some
trouble, the nailers having to do their own
feeding. At Jones x Laughlin's factory
all the machines are at work with all the
feeders and ShOenberger will start up to-
day, These feeders will work the week out
when some arrangement with the nailers
will be made.
To determine what action should be ia
ken a meeting of the feeders was held at
st. Malachi's Hall, West Carson street,
last night. W. p. Parker presided, but
the meeting was not so large as anticipa-
ted, all of the feeders not knowing of the
change and expecting it to be held tO-mOr-
row evening. A Committee of Conference
to meet the nailers was appointed. 1t is
composed of Samuel Grounds, Thomas
Ware, W. p. Parker, George Fisk, Thorn
ton Rowlen and Joseph Christy. They
will meet 4 similar committee from the
nailerS on next Friday evening. Then it
will be decided what course will be fol-
lowed.
AreSOlutiOn was also passed resolving
that the feeders want the MingO scale,
which gave them 9 cents per key when
nails were selling at -. The present
scale only gives them g cents per keg. If
the conference accomplishes nothing the
feeders will perhaps strike. There was q
difference of opinion on this at the meet
ing, rs also on the question of joining
either the Knights of Labor or the Anal
gamated Association. Each organization
has its friends who are working hard for
either. A decision on this will not be
reached until next week.

She Wanted to Die.

About halfpast eleven last night Annie
Kelley. a we'll known resident of East
Wheeling, went down to the creek in
the rear of the gas works and waded in,
presumably with suicidal intent. On com
ing in contact with the water, however,
Annie concluded to postpone her journey
hence. and a little coaxing from Special
Officer Brooks sufficed TO bring her back to
dry land.

Review of the Industrial Growth of
the South.

Review of the Industrial Growth of
the South.
BALTIMORE, Jan. 28.-The Bslti-
more Manufacturers Record published
to-day its annual review of the in
dustrial growth of the South and the
progress made in the development of
manufacturing and mining interests of
that section during 1885. Not
withstanding the general depression in
business throughout the country, a
noticeable feature is the wide diver
sity of new enterprises which includes
almost every industry known in the
country.
The amount of capital, including
capital stock Of incorporated companies
during the year and in enlarging and
rebuilding those destroyed by fire, ag-
gregates SEC, 1912, 900; divided among
fourteen Southern States, divided as
follows: Alabama. $7,94l,0 GOO; Arkan-
sas, $4,122,000; Florida, 81 019,000;
Georgia, $25,000,0 600; Kentu ky, $751;
304,200; Louisiana, $2,118, 800; Mary
land, S. ,668, 800; Mississippi, $70l,-
500; North Carolina, 1928, 900; South
Carolina, $S56,00 Tennessee, $685.
200; Texas, 1922, 200; Virginia, SO 3l4,,
600; West Virginia, $12,056 900. Total
$66,8l2,0 00.
Summing some statistics of the
South's progress since 1880, the Rec,
ord shows that since then 10,400 miles
have been added to the South's rail-
road mileage, the building of which,
added to investments in old roads and
their improvement, foots up $57l ,000,-
900. The actual cost of railroads of
the South and their equipment. accord
ing to statistics are over s ,250,000,
900. against $679, 100000 in 1880, The
assessed value of property in the South
has increased nearly $100,000,00
since 1879.

Here the coroner explained that he had
preferred to lei this witness give his evil
dence exactly in his own words bafore ask
ing him any special questions, but from
this point he asked him a great many,
further eliciting thai there was no evidence
OF a struggle and no particular foosmarks,
seeing that the spo5 where the body was
lying was furry" and not calculated to
show much in tne way of footmarks. But
there were plenty Of footmarks there now,
for the spot had been crowded with people
ever since, and alo5 OF the gorse had been
torn away.
The coroner expressed his regret that the
footprints had BEEN obliterated; he thought
the police shouli have kept the place clear,

Police Constable Jones C221S gave evil
dence as to the removal of the body. There
were no signs Of a struggle. In the de.
ceasefs pockets were a razor, six pound,
and ton s~hi!lings in gold and silver, a case
with visiting cards of the deceased in it.

house, 1t was cold, the limbs rigid, the
eyes gil tening, life-like; the face calm
n placi1, and there was a powerful odor
OF the essential oil OF bitter almonds per-
ceptible az the mouth. There was no frotn
or anything to show that the unfortunate
gentleman had died of poison except the
smell of it. He had made a post mortem ex-
animation Of the body, and it had undergone
little or no change. There were no marks

the Mississippi Industrial Institute and
College for White Girls, in transmitting
to Gov. Lowry the report of the presi-
dent, say that they feel they have great
cause to be grati6ed at the very flatter-
ing auspices under which this institu-
ton began its career last October, and
they add: 1.-THE large patronage which
it has had from the beginning, the
earnest desire of hundreds more of our
people to have its privileges for their
daughters, the great and varied advan-
tages which it affords, the extraordi-
narily low figure to which the expenses
have been brought, the careful and
prudent management which has guided
its operations, the favor which it has
won from our citizens and from other
States, all bespeak for it the %considera-
ton and fostering care of the Legisla-
ture." II ia a browning success, the
glory of the State.

railroads. The writer of this came to
Vicksburg in 1858 and at frequent in
tervals since and has wondered why

railroad.
TO you belongs the honor of first
suggesting it. That it will pay large
ly there can be no doubt. l would re-
spectfully suggest the name of one of
your esteemed citizens as one of the
%incorporators, viz /: Jno. B. Reed and
with such men as Capt. Mike Hughes,
with a host of others that 1 could
name the enterprise would be an as
sured success.
Your excellent paper being well.

terprise needs no comment or encon-
ium. Please publish the inclosed slip
with the communication from a citi.
