Larger During the First Half of 81 than In
any Previous Six Months--Great In.
crease In Stock. Pennsylvania
aud Alabama show Not.
III Gains

PHILADELPHIA, July 23.-The Ameri-
can Iron and Steel Association has received
from the manufacturers complete statistics
of the production of all kinds OF pig iron In
the United States in the first six months OF
the present year, also complete statistics Of
the stocks of unsold pig iron in the hands Of
manufacturers or their agents on the goth
day of June last, and of the number of fur
naces in blast and out OF blast at that date.
A summary of the report follows:
The production of pig iron in the first six
months of 1889 was larger than in any preced-
ing six months in the history OF the American
iron trade The stocks of unsold pig iron on
the 30th of June last, were much larger than
at the close of any preceding semi-annual
period for number of years The total pro-
duction of pig iron in the United States in the
first six months of 1889 amounted to 4, l07, ,S99
net tons Of 1000 pounds, or 3,667,76 gross tons
of 2 2i0 pounds. Oar production in the last six
months of 1888 was 1856 004 net tons. or 469 646
gross tons. The production in the first half of
1889 was l9S III gross tons more than in the sec
ond half of 1888. The increased production of
pig iron in the first half OF 1859 was wholly in
those kinds which are used for general foundry
and mill purposes; there was decrease in the
production of Bessemer pig iron.
Nearly all the .be Leading pig IRON producing
half of 1889. as compared with the last half of

production of pig iron in the Southern States
in the first half of 1889 was much larger than in
the last half of 1888, but for this gain Alabama
is entitled to the most credit
Among the Northern States which have made
progress in the first half of 1888 New York, New
Jersey and Ohio are more conspicuous each
State making decided gain. It is also note
worthy that Pennsylvania gained largely upon
her production in the second half of 1885 The
decrease in the production of Illinois was only
nominal
The stocks of pig iron which were unsold in
the hands of manufacturers or their agents on
the 30th of June last, and which were not in
tended for the consumption of the manufact-
urers. amounted to 502,934 gross tons, against

MEETING WITH GREAT FAVOR.
English Capitalists Impressed With Their
Investments in America.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.1
NEW YORK, July 23-Austin Corbin's scheme
of an American steamship line with its east
ern terminus at Montauk Point L. l., has met
with great favor among English capitalists
who look upon it as a tremendous idea and are
ready to put millions into it. Mr.. George
NJ. Pullman. the founder of the Pull
man Palace Car Company, has been approached
by Sir William Allan and the Rothschilds, of
London. and asked to go into the proposed
company with them. Sir William Allan is the
head of the family owning the Allan Line of
steamships from Baltimore and Montreal. 1t
was represented to Mr.. Rullman that Sir Will
lam and the banking house of Rothschids had
got into the organization, and that, III view of
the fact that the company was to be an Amer
ican one, it had been determined to give to Mr..
Pullman the first opportunity of investing
American capital in the enterprise. Mr.. Pull
man. in replying to Sir William Allan and the
Rothschilds, expressed his approval of the plan
and its profit and feasibility. and said that he
would be compelled to decline on the ground
of age and various engrossing business inter-
ests.
Mr.. Corbin will have no trouble in getting
English capital Judging from his past exper-
fences in that direction. The Corbin Banking
Company, of which he is the head. has invested
many millions of English capital in American
land and buildings. Through Mr.. Corbin-
who is not an Englishman. but Bostonian-
the Long Island town of Babylon has been
practically developed and built up by English
capitalists. The Duke of Argyle has invested
large fortune through Mr.. Corbin.

sylvania Railroads Actions.
wILKEsBARRE, July 22-There is a lively
discussion going on among all classes here at
present concerning the running of passenger
trains on Sunday. For years no Sunday pas
senger trains were run on the five railroads
centering here. The Pennsylvania Railroad
led the way when they ran a news train into the
town from Sunoury. Three weeks ago the
Central Railroad of New Jersey started to run
excursion trains to Mountain PARK. The ex-
cursions were well patronized and people that
labored during the week saw the trains met
their wants. A great many ministers and
church people, however, thought different
They claimed that the excursions were a desc
Grafton of the Sabbath.
A committee of prominent church members
went to New York and tried to induce the off,
GERS of the railroad company to withdraw their
Sunday trains, but without success. 1t is now
proposed to hold mammoth mass meeting of
church members next Saturday evening TO pro-
test against the action of the company.
Passenger Agent Keenly said this evening
that the trains would not be withdrawn The
working people wanted them. and the company
was filling the wants. Several Sunday schools
have boycotted the company by canceling
dates at Mountain Park.

Code of Barber's Ethics.

One of the most interesting things
which the German papers have been writ
ing about lately is the establishment of
a code of BARRIERS ethics. It appears
that some time ago a call was issued for
a Congress of BARRIERS 10 assemble at
Berlin. Four hundred Of them responded
and there was an interesting meeting
which lasted three days. When they
adjourned they had formulated a code Of
trade ethics, which is well worth the
attention of their American brethren.
Here arc some Of the new regulations:
In future the operation of shaving must
invariably be begun on the left cheek,
and the old style over there of applying
the lather to the face with the hand
must be stopped and brushes used for
that purpose. No barber Will be per-
mitted to remain a member of the asso-
citation who persists in holding a customer
by the nose while shaving him. To
their everlasting credit be it recorded
that majority OF the Congress decided
that in so far as talking to customers
was concerned a great reform was neces-
rary, therefore they decreed that the
BARRIERS should confiue themselves to the
careful shaving or hair cutting of their
patrons and not allow their tongues to
ramble during the operation over the
domsin of politics, commerce and
philosophy, literature and the arts. Still
the Congress has left a loophole for es-
cape, since on motion Of Hamburg
barber it was resolved that an observa-
ton on the weather by way of greeting
or farewell would not imperil an artists

An ImprOrised Air Gun.

It Is generally known that air is an
elastic substance, but few persons have
any idea how extremely sensitive to
pressure \ New York Nail anil Express
reporter had the fact impressed upon
him by the humorous demonstration Of a
professor in physics whom he had called
upon in college laboratory.
'Where shall l place this empty
bottlel" asked the professors young
assistant, taking from the table a wide
mouth bottle. which had been used in
some experiment before the class.
Take care, that bottle is not emptyln
replied the professor. carefully taking
the bottle from him, ''there is something
very powerful in it." He then took a
small cork from the drawer and hold
ing the bottle in a horizontal position
placed the cork in the neck and said to
the assistant: ''Blow that cork into the
bottle; We'll see if there is room for it. {"
The / oy brought his mouth quite near to
the opening where the cork was loosely
lying aud taking a long breath gave
sudden puff. To his great surprise the
cork, instead of falling into the bottle
trembled a moment where it lay and then
was forcibly blown into his face.
"You see," explained the professor,
with laugh, THAT bottle is not empty.
1t is so full of air that no more can be
blown into it. The only effect of blow
ing against the cork was to compress the
air behind it, which is so elastic that
the moment the pressure was removed it
expanded quickly and forced the cork
out OF the neck, apparently against the
current from your lungs. When you try
the experiment with your friends you
must see that the neck of the bottle IS
perfectly dry, or the cork will adhere to
it and spoil the fun"

Fecundity of Fish

It has been calculated that, as fish
produce so many eggs, if vast numbers
OF the latter and OF the FISH themselves
were not continually destroyed and
taken, they would soon fill up every
available space in theseas. For instance,
from 60, 600, O00 to 10000, 600 Goldfish
are annually caught on the shores of
Newfoundland. But even that quantity
seems small when it is considered that
each cod yields about 1900, 900 eggs
every season, and that even so, 600, 900
have been found in the roe of 4 single
cod. Were the 60, 0lO, coo of cod taken
on the coast of Newfoundland left to
breed, the 10000, 600 females producing
5000, 600 eggs every year, It would
give yearly addition of ljO, 000, 00O,-
600. 600 young Goldfish. Other fish,
though not equaling the cod, are won
derfullv prolific A herring weighing
or. or OF. Is provided with about 3d.
600 eggs. After making all reasonable
allowances for the destruction of eggs
and the young it has been estimated that
in three years a single PAR Of herrings
would produce 154, 900, 600. Button
calculated that, if a pair of herrings
could be left to breed and multiply IN
disturbed for a period of twenty years,
they would yield an amount of fish equal
in bulk TO the globe on which we live.

to look into the window of the Old
Corner bookstore, and among other
things upon which his eyes fell was a
large photograph of the men engaged in
the famous ''Andover controversy" his
own figure being prominent in the group.
A pair of small urchins were looking ut
the picture, and Just as he stopped, the
gentleman heard one of them say to the
other:
Hey, Tommy, Will yer look at them

Tommy gazed accordingly, and asked.
in tone of interest:

And the professor passed on, with
fresh hope for the ultimate success of the
