INCREASED DEMAND FOR coal.
Failure of Natural Gas ut Pittsburgh will
Cause 1t Very Soon
fMnnufncturcr's Record.l

The Philadelphia Natural Gas Company.
which controls all the sources OF supply
upon which the manufacturers of Pitts
burgh depend for fuel, has given notice of
its intention TO cut off the gas from them,
and to sell it only for Illuminating and
household purposes. The excuse offered
for this sudden proceeding is that domcs-
tic consumption and the consequent pro-
fits from that source have become 50 large
that it is considered inadvisablc to contin-
ne to furnish the gas to manufacturers,
whose crude methods OF using it result in
an enormous waste to the Philadelphia
COMPANY. Whether this action means
that the natural gas is giving out and that
therefore the company finds it cxpcdicnt
to cconomizc the supply and to furnish
only to those who will make it Il continual
source of profit, we cannot say. One
thing is certain This withdrawal will
create new and an immense demand for
coal at Pittsburgh where the daily con-
sumption, 500 100000 feet of gas. was
equivalent to $4,000 tons day of coal.
West Virginia miners will he the first to
benefit by this change, and there will be
a renewed activity in the coal fields of
that State because of it,
How the factories and mills of Pitts
burgh will be affected remains to be seen.
At very considerable expense the pudding
furnaces were changed from coal to gas
consumers, and will have to be recon-
verified. The Pittsburgh Forge Il Iron
Company, and several other large corpo-
rations have already gone back TO coal,
and all the others will have to follow their
example unless the Philadelphia or some
other corporation engages in the manu-
facturc Of gas for their use, which is
hardly probable. In either case the con-
sumption of coal is the same. One result
of this will probably be to prevent the
factories and mills in other gas producing
sections from using that fuel. which cx-
pericnce has proven unreliable, and con-
scqucnily coal consumption will keep
pace with the increase of industrial cstab-
ishmcnts. There is a bright outlook for
the Southern coal industry.

AI'KINLEY'S SAY.
He Talks About the Tariff and About the
Causes of His Defeat.

CLEVELAND, o.. November I3.-Congrcss-
man Mckinley arrived in this city this
afternoon. Speaking to the reporter
about the recent election he said: 81 am
well satisfied with the result in my own
district. gained 1900 votes during the
camnaign, which lasted but three weeks.
That was even more than | had any right
to expect; it is certainly very gratifying
to INC"
"What do YOU think Of the result in the
State?' WAS asked.
"rhc republican victory on the State
ticket was splendid. The unfairncss of
gcrrymandcrng was manifested most
clearly by the recent election. The re-
pubicans carried the State by the popular
majority of over $4,000, while the demo-
crafts secured two-thirds of the rcprcscn-
tativcs in Congress, and the republicans
onc-third. This shows the effect of the
gcrrymandcr very clearly"
Has the cause of protection suffered
any by the recent democratic victories
throughout the country:'
"Prctccton is stronger to-day than it
ever was, and it will continue to grow in
favor. The Tariff bill, which was made an
issue during thc campaign, was but three
and onc-half weeks old when the election
occurred, and many of its provisions have
not vet gone into effect. The bill was
misunderstood and at the same time mis-
represented. rhe latter was done by i'm
posters. many of whom are not citizens of
the United States and arc free traders. y
"What will be the future of the bill?"
- -. i
All great measures have met with tempo
rarv defeat; The enamel patton of the
slaves and the passage of the fourteenth
and fifteenth amendments to the constitu-
ton may he pointed to rs examples. The
same issue will come to the front in 1S92
and il will then be better understood.
Oar defeat this year is not greater than
il was in 1882. two years after Garfield
was elected. The republicans have not
had majority of the House of Rcprcscn-
taiivcS but twice since 1915. In this Con-
grcss we have twcnty-six members from
the South, while in the next there will be
but two or three We have little to fear
in the future if we have free ballot and
IL fair count.
Major Mckinley came to the city on
business and number of friends called
upon him in the evening. He said that
he would take arest for few days and
leave for Washington in about two weeks,
so as to he ready for opening of Congress
ON December lst When asked if there
would be any important legislative enact
mcnt during the session, he said he did
not know Of any.
I'VE did not leave much undonc during
the past session." he remarked with a
smile
Mckinley feels confident that the Sem
ate will pass the Ledge Federal election
bill before the close of the session.

From there it will 90 to Raleigh, where it
