The epidemic of yellow fever at Jacksonville
Is a dreadful affection to that city, and not
without suggestions of danger to the rest of
the country. The situation Of the State at
large, however is not so dismal as people are
apt to imagine. Jacksonville IS, Of course. the
point upon which all eyes at the North are
fixed, and il is easy TO forget that except there
and at two or three other points the State Is
unusually free from disease; that freight and
passengers enter and leave Florida, except by
certain intercepted routes, with customary reg
uarity and dispatch that lively political cam
paign is in progress there as elsewhere, and
that throughout large part of the State moth
ing approaching panic or even general con-
dtion Of Encouragement exists.

Secretary Whitneys conduct OF the Navy
Department will inevitably be regarded with
critical scrutiny when he quits office. There
have been frequent rumors that he would not
continue in his present place even If he had
the chance to do so after next March. He must
expect to encounter the sharpest kind OF criti-
cism. That Is what he chose to invite by his
unwarranted and wholly unjust attitude toward
the Roach cruisers. He must expect to be
measured in the scales which he himself con-
structed and to be judged according to his own
standards. Even now it is easy to see how
hardly he will fare under such an ordeal. The
incompetency Of his administration is
shown in the delays that have char
acterized his whole work. Though the
time has expired, or is shortly to expire,
on many of bis new vessels. none is near
completion. 1t is safe to say. however, that
the measure which must be meted out to him
will not be extended to the contractors. No
Republican Administration would desire to
bankrupt all the shipbuilders of the land and
extermnate one of the industries upon the
maintenance of which the Nations life to a
great extent depends

1t begins to look as if the County Democracy
leaders, convinced that the necessity Of doing
something respectable cannot longer be eyaded,
have concluded, despite many wry faces, to
dominate Mayor Hewitt as his own successor.
Nhey are certainly right in believing that their
life as an organization is doomed to be short
unless they at least simulate political honesty.
Tammany Hall is evidently at IT'S wits end TO
know how such a move as its rival appears to
contemplate can be successfully met. A union
Of the factions is more than ever improbable.
The patronage Of the Mayors Office is so album
dant this year that neither organization can
make up its mind to trust the other. On the
whole, considering what they know of each
other, we don't blame them.

PENNSvlvANIA'S GROWTH.
How the Discovery OF Natural Gas Has
Developed that state.

PrrTsBuEG. Pa, February "a local
paper published a complete review Of the
revolution which has taken place in West
ern Pennsylvania since the introduction Of
natural gas three years ago. The industrial
development has been something wonder
ful. and the facts and figures given are sUf-
hciently startling TO appear almost incred-
ible. The steel furnace capacity IN twelve
iron and steel mills has been increased l. l64
tons per day, or ut the rate of 3t9. 10 tons
per year. In sevgral mills the furnace ca
pacity has been increased upwards of
lU per cent. in some I'D per cent, and
in one nearly 80 per cent Great headway
has been made in the manufacture Of
wrought iron pipe. In 1854 the capacity Of
local mills was Ia 90 tons per annum now
il is go tons per day. or 80. 90 tons per
snnum, the greatest in the world. The iron
and steel wire mills have also branched out,
and from 5000 tons per annun they have
increased To los, go tons In the fOundries.
blast furnaces and glass trade. rs we'll as in
the manufacture Of railroad locomotives
the increase has been over % per cent
Similar advancement has taken place in the
manufacture Of fine brassware. fire brick
and sewer pipe. in electric lighting, in
tobacco and spirits, leather and shoes, lum-
Der, paper sock and corks. The growth Of
the natural gas interests to which the de-
velopment Of the county and western portion
Of the State is attributed, has been simply
enormous, and is the most remarkable thing
of the age. There are engaged in the enter
prise twenty six companies, with . nominal
OF $23 J05 900. Of which SIS. 800
90 is invested in Ftisturg companies
Experts place the total displacement Of coal
by gas in Allegheny county alone At
1900 tons daily, which is equivalent to
500 OJO, 90 cubic feet of gas every twenty
four hours. There are upward of one thou
sand miles Of piping used in the conveying
of natural gas throughout the district. The
largely extended oil territory is also . cause
for general comment, as, indeed, is every
imaginal branch Of trade in all the various
counties west of the Allegheny Mountains.

him in the air an6 overheard The heavy

Captain Jacobs ordered them cut. Looking
over the side and not seeing the man afioat,
Captain Jacobs conceived the idea that

that he did not lose his presence of mind

strange incident that he relates is that the
dredge line. which from the vessel to the
bottom wxx fully thirty feet long. acted as

being given above him, hear the footsteps
Of the crew running about the deck, the
