year the largest shipper and producer OF
iron ore in the Lake Superior region, hav-

1t is estimated that the output OF the
VermilliOn district, where the company'S
mines are situated. will be for the season of
1889 about 100000 TONS"
The gentlemen then said: THE point to
it all lies IN this. The principal consum-
ers of iron ore in the West have combined

The combination will include the North
Chicago, the UniOp. steel-mill and the Joliet
Steel Company, With possibly one other,
the Calumet. 1t is not trust in any sense,
or combination of that character. 1t is
simply consolidation into large corpora

the work of production and sales A vast
expenditure in the way of superintendent
and sales will be avoided, and they will be
able to produce rails at a price which, in
these days of sharp competition, will ena-
BILE them to compete successfully with any
other works. In fact, this corporation will
be much the largest one in the United
States, and will make an annual output of
steel rails largely in excess of any other
establishment under one management in
the country. Their annual consumption of
iron ore will be in excess of 100000 TONS"

A Specific for Diphtheria.

DIR. Delthil, French physician, in a
report to the French Academy of Medi-
cine, and whichwas published N the
Paris Figaro, recommends the following
simple treatment for dihptheria. 1t has
been used in this country, with good
effect:
He pours equal parts of turpentine
and tar into tin pan or cup and sets
fire to the mixture. A dense resinous
smoke arises which obscures the air of
the room.
The patient Dr. Delthil says, imme-
diately seems to experience some relief,
the choking and rattle stop; the patient
falls into slumber and seems to inhale
the smoke with pleasure. The fbrinous
membrane soon becomes detached and
the patient coughs up microbicides.
These when caught in glass, may be
seen to dissolve in the smoke. In the
course of three days afterwards the
patient entirely reeokrrs.'
