The rare ceremony Of divorcing . woman
from her dead husband, according
TO the requirements Of the Mosaic
law, took place mt the Bnai Jakob syna-

a peddler, was killed on June Y by two
tramps. She had no children, and the old
law Of the orthodox Jews Is that In such a
case the dead mans eldest brother is 10
marry the woman and raise up children In

Mrs. Levin, however, did not desire TO

he had caught another boy In H. The cap.
the countryman who had charge Of the

From the Philadelphia Times.
An ordinance 10 appropriate money to
perfect the records Of deeds, mortgages and
other instruments In the county Of Phil
edeiphia came mp for consideration
before the law committee OF
councils yesterday, and was the sub
tect Of heated debate. An act of tho

Recorder OF Deeds George g. Pierre ex-
planned the act in compliance with the
request Of Chairman Etting of the com
mittee. "Several months ago." said the
recorder, "a gentleman visited my Office
and introduced himself as the recorder of
deeds Of Lancaster county. While looking
over the books he exclaimed why,
you are not paying any attention to
the act Of 1855. Upon investigation ]

the state had their records signed. The act

"Vive Boulanger." Clement tried TO
arrest Deroulde, but the latter steutly
resisted, saying that he had not made o

THE IRON TRADE.


Increased Notwithstanding of Another
Advance In Pig Iron,
NRw YORK, July l4.-Bra4StreslS says
The demand for steel rails is setting in
quite actively on a basis of $27 so and
S2s east and $50 and $50 west, Negotia'
tions are progressing favorablY for some
10000 tons, Of which one'hali, 1t is ex'
peCted, will go to Pennsylvania mills,
A goodly number OF small buyers have
taken advantage OF current rates Ia place
orders, and mills are pretty well supplied
with orders for thirty days. The de-
mand for structural material Is becom.
ing very urgent, and prices are Corres'
pondlngly strong, Additional capacity
Is being added in the west, aud In all
markets the demand Is very close on the
heels Of supply. A great deal Of winter
bridge.buiIding work will soon be on the
market. Merchant steel OF all kinds
and blooms and billets are having an
excellent run. Skelp and wrought iron
pipes and tubes are ac,ive, and nearly
all mills are crowded. Bar iron makers
and founders have been heavy buyers
OF crude iron, and urgent requirements
still remain uncovered. Makers are
rather disinclined TO favor the speCula-
tive inquiry which Is showing itself in
some markets. The possibility OF an
other moderate advance in pig iron
is being contemplated iu some we'll
informed quarters. Southern brands
are quoted little stronger than usual,
and US offerings are more restricted the eff
feet Is to harden prices oh Northern iron.
Large sales ofall kinds ofCrude iron have
been made in Western markets, where a
heavy consumption Is in progress. The
output OF anthracite hasslightly declined,
while Of bituminous 1t has increased
lars, plates, sheets and
skelps are strong aud improving. Nails
arc barely holding their own under a
heavy production. Favorable western
rail rates have helped to stimulate de.
mand. Old rails are wanted In all local.
tiles, but buyers are unable TO make
liberal provision at present rates. The
general improvement in inquiry for
crude and finished iron and steel Of all
kinds Is exerting a favorable influence
on the markets. Ore and lake ireights
will probably remain undisturbed for the
rest OF tue season.

pIrTspuRon, July II. Ono Of the
neatest and at the same time most sue

yesterday morning.
AT 10o'clock on Saturday morning Mr..
James X. Lanahan, proprietor Of the st.

were missing. This money had been
placed In large sale that occupies por.
tion OF the storeroom OF the hotel, just
In the rear Of the sitting room. The safe
is IN old.iashionel one, not having any
combination lock, as the storeroom was
thought 10 be q safe place the outside
door Of the safe was never locked.
The impression IS that the robbery was
perpetratodby some one who isthorough.
