STLEEToN, Pa. Aug. ia new fea-
ture has developed itself in the present
uncertainty of affairs at the steel works
A short time ago conference of steel
manufacturers was held at Atlantic
City, at which great inducements were
thrown out to the Pennsylvania Steel
company to close down their works, as
it is the only company that is running
its works ON its own capital. The offer
was emphatically refused. 1t is now in
timated that the Amalgamated associa-
ton is more easily controlled by the
steelmakers than the Pennsylvania Steel
company, and, therefore, agents were
sent here to organize an association for
the purpose of antagonizing the COM
panY, thereby using the company S
workmen as tools to do what they could
not accomplish themselves.

PzTTsBUR0. Aug. 16.-The iron men
are now smiling prices having advanced.
and there is a better feeling all along
the line. BesscIncr pig is now com
nlanding from 1913 to Sl7 per ton.
This is an advance Of 81 per ton within
the past month. One prominent broker
stated that there was an increasing de-
mand for Besseaner. and that the ad.
vance within the past week had been 20
cents per ton, and that he believed there
would be a still further advance by the
1st OF the month. Mill iron has taken .
corresponding jump. 1t might have
been purchased in Pittsburg one month
ago at S14 per ton.
The prospect Of an advance in the
price of coke on Sept. l will have
the effect of still further advancing the
price of iron. One of the large coke
operators stated that there would be no
trouble about advancing the price Of
coke to S1.25, or even Sl.50, per ton on
Sept ! as far as the iron market is con-
cerned. He thought that higher priced
coke would have wholesome effect all
around. The trouble in the coke region
is over, and by the close of the week all
the ovens in the ConnellsvIlle regions
viii be in operation.

From the style in which pieces of rock
are flying from the side of Town noun
tain after each explosion of the blasts i'll
the quarry, it might be assumed that the
purpose is to blow the fragments all over
the country instead of saving them for
use, as might be the supposed use of the
dynamite. Yesterday we were informed
that cow was killed by a falling frag-
ment at a very considerable distance
from the blast. We have been frequently
requested to call attentionto the damage
being daily done to the upper wall of the
reservoir by the violent impact of the
same fragments. As that is a serious
matter, we comply with the request of
said informants that the proper authori-
ties interpose to prevent the alleged in
iurieS.

COVENTRY, ENGLAND,(
July "a, 1889. !
Editor Citizen I'm a retrospect OF yes
tcrday we find no room for joke or jest,
although many funny things strike us of
the pccuIiaritics of our entertainers, but
our heart is full of the old ruinous Abbey
. of Mclrose, to which we hasten our re-
turn, to complete the enjoyment cut
short by the late twilight of Monday
Not vcnturing upon an attempt at
description, which to us seems sacrllegc,
we thought to give some idea of the im-
preston made upon ourselves, but this,
too, is a difficult task. 1t is notso much
our mind as the heart and affections that
this wonderful production Of past ages
works upon, and we tremblc at compar-
ing what we are wont to call religion i'll
ourselves with the years of devotion and
patient toll of these old monks, as, with
out reward of men, they with their own
hand produced these marvcls OF beauty
as a token of their love to God, and what
they believed to be His bride, the Catho-
lie Church. But even an attempt to write
our own feelings is met with the dItil-
Guilty that every word that we indlte
seems to us most flat and commonplace.
How, then, can we hope to interest
even slightly our dear, far away friends
No, they must come themselves and
stand on the pavement covering thou
sands of Ilustrious dead, over the very
SPOT where lies the silver caskct contain
inr the great heart of King Robert the
Bruce, which was brought back from
Spain together with the body of his lov-
inr follower, the gallant Lord James OF
Douglass, and both placed near together
under the cast window of what must
then have been their pride, the church OF
their delight.
Near bv we stand upon the tomb OF
Michael Scott, the Wizard, and trace
with our finger the dim outlines OF the
cross, said to have been produced by the
streams of moonlight through the ira
ccried window at his head, a legend most
appropriate, we think, to the great al
chemist
Nor is the record confined alone to
prince and noleman or men OF high dc
gree, as the world then considered them
but this tablet, which VIC hope you car
reproduce, gives evidence of the genius ,
one Tohn Morvo (now called Murdoch J:
a master mason and an excellent work
man, from whom we fancy that some O.
our good friends of that name both ii
Salisbury and Asheville may have de-
sccndcd, because be it remembered this
master mason is not said to have beer
one of the monks, to whom celibacy had
charms, and our friends seem surely to
have inherited his talent in stone work

characters:
