Why Mills and Furnaces Stop.

We have already referred to the
wholesale shutting down by the LIE.
high Valley furnaces because there is
no demand for product at rates that
will pay, The difference in the price
of manufactured product between now
and a year ago is a conclusive answer
with any reasonable man to the state
ment that there is an attempt to coerce
labor into taking lower wages. 1t is
a somewhat startling truth in the first
week of April that not steel rail has
been made In Pittsburgh for a consid.
erable time, with lessening prospect
for there being any made for cousd.
cradle time to come certainly moi
before rails can be produced cheaper
than now, which means a reduction of
wages for one thing. Manufacturers
cannot be expected to run at q loss,
unless there is good prospect of an
early change, which no one pretends
is the case now.
The tariff agitation has opened the
prospect for importing rails at prices
at which they cannot be made at home
with anything like the wages that
American workmen have been earn.
ing. Railroads are holding off with
their orders with the hope of getting
cheap foreign rails. Mills are without
orders and must stop. If they start it
must be with cheaper labor, cheaper
freight and cheaper cast all around.
Owners cannot be expected to go
ahead and foot the loss out of their
own pockets. The present suspension
including different branches of manu-.
factures, is the inexorible logic of the
situation in the business world, in
producing which tariff tinkering is
playing the principal part.
1t is hard state of things. But
that fact should not cause men to be
blind to the truth. Pittsburgh Times.

MILLS and his free.trade bill, to-
gether with Bill Scott and the other
fellows who are trying just now to
give England boost, got terrible
turning over in the House at Wash.
ington last Friday, and it came straight
from the brainiest Democrat on the
floor, too, Hon. Sam. Randall. After
thoroughly dissecting the bill Mr..
Randall gets in these solid chunks of
sense:
"a declared purpose of this bill is
to secure free raw materials to stimu.
late manufactures In execution of
this idea the bill places on the free
list large number of articles which
are really manufactured articles, such
as salt, sawed and dressed lumber,
glue, various oils and chemicals, china,
clay, etc. These constitute the pro.
ducts of large and nseful industries
throughout the United States, in which
many millions of capital are invested
and employing many thousands of
working people. At the same time
the bill leaves or puts upon the dutia-
BILE list lead, iron, zinc and nickel ores
and coal, which might be called raw
rnSSS~9ls. Further than this, the bill
not only makes so.ealled raw mate.
rials' free, but places on the free list
the manufactured products of these
materials. Thus the manufacture of
such articles is made impossible in this
country, except by reducing American
labor to worse condition than that of
labor in Europe. 1t goes even farther,
and places or leaves dutiable certain
so'called raw materials, such as iron
ore, lead, coal, paper, paints, etc,
while placing on the free list articles
made from these materials, such as
hoop-iron, and cotton ties, tin plates,
machinery, books and pamphlets, etc.
In other words the bill leaves or makes
dutiable the raw material and puts on
the free list the articles manufactured
from it, thus not only placing an in-
surmountable barrier in the way oi
making such articles here, but actually J
protecting the foreign manufacturer
and laborer against our own and i'm
posing for their benefit burden upor
the consumer in this country.
"Mr. Randall asserted that instea(
of the Mills bill reducing customs
revenues s54,OO0,0OO, as was claimed
it would be fair to estimate that it
effect would be to largely increase tn
revenue instead of reducing it; Will
the amount of material wealth it ~oul'
destroy is incalculable. Those sup

THE ACCoMAC TRAGEDY.--The report
received at Opancock, Va, that VIM.
c. Duer, who isconfned in the Jail at North
ampton county for numbering his wife, had
been examined by committee ofphysicians
aud pronounced sane, was surprise to the
people OF the community, where Duer had
lived for the last ten years, mp TO short
time before ne killed his wife. Those
who knew Duer best considered him insane
for more than 6 month before he left Oman
cock, though they never considered him
dangerous. During Christmas he walked
from his brothers., near Belle Haven, to
Onsucock, q distance of nearly fifteen miles
or more, arriving there with only one shoe
ou. The weather WAS very cold. He said
be had thrown the other shoe away be-
cause it hurt his foot. He often told those
about him that the woods near ho home
were filed with armed negroes, who were
bent on killing him. Duer's examination
vii take place at Eastyile to-day, and sew
eral citizens of .Onancock, who know him
wsil, nave been summoned to attend. Those
who were acquainted with his mental con-
dition prior to his leaving Onancock believe
he was insane when he killed his wife. 1t
is known, however, that he had lucid inter.
vais and it is supposed he was in one of
them when examined by physicians in
Esstville.

THE B. & o. r. R.-The Drexel Morgan
syndicate and tho private stockholders Of
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company
have met with their first defeat at the hands
OF Arthur P. German. There was to have
been a meeting of the stockholders in Balti.
more yesterday for the purpose of voting
upon question of the issue of s5 600 900 of
6 per cent. third preferred stock, which was
to have been taken by the syndicate. With
this stock, it is claimed, the syndicate would
have acquired absolute control of the BaIti
more and Ohio property. 1t requires q re.
presentation of 100,001 shares of common
and preferred stock to constitute quorum.
and Senator German Wednesday set about
to prevent the necessary representation be.
ing present. How we'll he succeeded is
shown by the fact that yesterday the private
stockholders could only obtain represents
ton OF 10000 shares. This lack of 24,OO1
shares defeats for the present, at least, the
issue Of the third preferred stock, and Sena-
tor German scores big victory. The de-
ieat was brought about by the refusal of the

Witnessed a Terrible Crime.

Mrs. Lucy w Pitts, who diedin Gritfiu, Ga. {,
on Wednesday, was in her early life promi
nent figure IL tragedy which at that time
electrified the State. In 1920 thare lived
in Jones county respectable family
uameG Rose, in which there were two
daughters, Miss Lucy and Miss Martha.
Miss Lucy Rose married Howell Williams,
while her sister, Miss Martha, married Geo.
Williams. Howell Williams died young,
after which his widow married q man named
Pitts, surviving her second husband and dy-
ing on Wednesday, as stated Al the time
Of the double marriage George Williams WAS
considered the handsomest man in that
county. He was engaged in mercantile pur-
suits but for some reason or ether retired 10
the country and became e farmer Two
boys were horn TO MIN and the family was
esteemed one of the bappiest in the county.
One morning Mr.. Williams went to the bed
of mis- wife and told her that he was going
to the adjoining town of Clinton to transact
some business. On the way he met mis- si:-
ter io law, Mrs. Lucy Williams, who was on
her way to see her sick sister. Williams
begged her to remain at his house until he
should return. He began carousal on his
return he was wild with drink. He found
his sister-in-law at home with his wife,
as he had invited her to be, and at once
began o quarrel with the two women.
He ran them out of the house, his
Gife running TO the field where the slaves
we're ploughing. While calling to them to
cave her she was seiZad by her husband. who
plunged his knife into her throat and cut it
from ear 10 ear. She fell back into his arms
dead. Throwing her body to the ground,
where it was surrounded by the frightened
negroes, he rushed back to the house, and,
seizing the ten days-old babe, threw it from
2 second story window to the ground, but
its wraps and the bedding around it saved
its life. After being brought to trial he was
sentenced 30 be hanged. On the appointed
day, as The hour of his doom drew near, the
murderer carefully dressed himself for the
execution. Just before starting out for the
gallows he asked for glass of water. It
! was handed to him, and when he had drank
it he threw the glass upon the stone floor of
the cell. Picking up one of the pieces while
unobserved he deliberately drew it across
his throat, infctine horrible gash. He
was led to the gallows bleeding profuseiy.
When he reached the gailows he fell from
the loss of blood, and the officers were hest.
taunS as 10 Whetner they sloUld proceed
with the execution. The thousands present
cried aloud for his blood. and threatened
lynching if the officers did not carry out the
sentence. He was held up between two
strong men, the rope was adjusted around
bis neck, slipping into the bloody cavity,
and, almost dead, he was sent through the
trap. Mrs Lucy Williams witnessed the
murder aud also the execution of the muir
derer, and used to relate the story always
with thrilling effect.
