 WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-There was an important consultation this morning in the office of the Secretary of the Navy between MT. Tracy and about 35 prominent steel manufacturers from various parts of the country.
 For some time past the Navy Depart ment has evinced an extremely critical spirit in regard to the steel furnished by the manufacturers for the new navy vessels. A great deal of it has been rejected by the department as not coming up to the required standard.
 This has occurred so often under both Secretary Whitney and Secretary Tracy, that the manufacturers have at last become discouraged as well as some what indignant, and now they propose to have talk with the authorities at headquarters and see if they cannot come to a better understanding. The manufacturers say that the department is altogether too severe, and that they have no difficulty in selling the rejected steel to other customers of the most exacting kind.

The Irish FuGitIves in France Waiting to
 Leave for America.
 PARIS, Oct. 16.-La Presse states that Dillon and O'Brien, after their flight from Tipperary, took passage on sail ing vessel and landed at Luc-sur- Mer. They came directly here and passed the night with MT. Raffalovitch, MT. O'Brien's brother-in-law. Mir. O'Brie n went yesterday to the latter's country seat, the Chateau de Gif.
 The fHgitives intended to catch the French steamship from Havre on Sat- urday, but, failing in this, they are now awaiting advices from America. If they learn that their escape has pro- duced a favorable effect there, they will embark on the Bretagne on the 18th.
 This story is contradicted by Dr. Raffalovirch's father, who says that his son is in Egypt, and that so far as the family are aware, Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien are not in France. He yester- day received letter from hls daughter, Mrs. O'Brien, in which she said she was about to sail. for America, where she expected to join her husband. He believes that the Nationalist leaders sailed for America nearly a week ago, but that instead of taking one of the fast ocean liners, as is generally sup posed, they embarked on 8 compara- lively slow vessel.
 CHERBoURG, Oct. 16.-Messrs. Dillon, O'Brien and Clancy arrived here at noon and started for Paris shortly after.

A1r. Chauncey M. Depew Addresses the
 Convention To-Day.

~~N~--N-~-
 PITTsRURo, Pa., Oct. 16.-Every one of the 452 divisions of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers Is represented at the twenty-seventh annual Inter national convention now in session in Old City Hall.
 Chaunoey M. Depew addressed an open session of the convention at the Grand Opera House to-day. He was followed by the mayors of Pitts burg and Allegheny, and several other speakers.
 Before the meeting Grand Chief Ar thur and First Grand Engineer In2ra- ham were seen, but neither of these gentlemen was willing to venture an convention would come to on the ques- tion of af6liation with the Federation . Railroad Employes.
 MT. Arthur said from what he had observed sentiment was about evenly divided on the matter. "I have not had sufficient time to glean the opinions of the delegates since have arrived, and cannot therefore give you an idea about how the matter will be disposed of."
 When asked how he regarded the proposition to unite with the Knights of Labor, Mir. Arthur would not com init himself.
 The general sentiment of the dele. gates seen is decidedly against 1t. Mir. John A. Hill, editor of the Locom otive Engineer, thought that when it came to a vote the delegates would knock 1t out. ''The Western delegates favor the proposition most" said he, ''but ] believe they are largely in the minor ity." Other prominet members of the or- der expressed the same views and the belief exists that the convention will still continue independent of other labor organizations.

"A Little Story :

We are not way up in tariff reform, but when manufacturers and commis- sion men say to us, "Now the Mckinley bill has become a law" we cannot make any future contracts to deliver goods except at market prices at time of delivery. With all Foreign Goods advanced and our own home productions sure to advance, we are forced to sing the same song, "Clothing is bound to advance" You are working over time, making good pay and under an advancing market, wagescannot be reduced and you will hardly feel any advance, for we have been secretly preparing for just this thing. Being in market every week in the year has kept us well posted (Which, with our largely increased facilities, we have been able to provide against an advancing market even as far as next Springs goods. Our little story is that we can show you a large stock of Fall and Winter Clothing away under actual value to-day, and would advise every one in need of of an Overcoat or Suit to purchase now that our selec- ton is large, for you are sure to be obliged to pay more next winter. Re member this is good sound advice. This is the winter to buy an Overcoat, and the c. w. D. the place.
