While making tour Of an iron mill
in the Wheeling district recently, a
representative Of this paper saw most
striking illustration Of the way in which
natural gas is too often used. The man
aper Of the mill visited pointed with no
little satisfaction TO several improve
ments he had made in methods, by
which considerable saving was effected
in the course OF q year. One OF these
Was a plan whereby In lifting the scale
and cinder from under the squeezers
fine wages OF one man were
sayed. Another improvement in
the use Of fire brick had been
made, and the several changes
made tended to q lessening OF expenses.
When such care had been taken 70 effect
a saving in operations, It looked singular
! that 40 much wealth should be allowed
to escape through the gas pipes, but
such was the case. In one part oil the
mill was noticed q six-inCh Campbell

with a roar. The men on the night turn

meter was attached to the pipe feeding
one Of those burners. In the course OF
a weeks time 1t was demonstrated be-
\ yond doubt that the companywas thus
wasting one.eighth as much gas IS was
consumed in the entire mill. The man
aper, after q thorough investigation, re-
ported that the gas wasted in those
burners was sufficient TO keep three
sheet heating furnaces well supplied, yet,
on the score Of economy, the firm was
burning coal in the larger part OF the
works. 49,,
ing, and the consequence was that
arrangements were made to light the
establishment by electricity, and save
the gas for more economical purposes

WEST VIRGINIA people have been the
subjects OF many misrepresentation
abroad. None of the sensational stories
have been worse and more untruthful
than the recent tale about "white
slavery" alleged to exist among certain
laborers in the Flat Top mining region.
The story was first printed in New
York paper, and later the "horrible de-
tails" were published in the Herald Of
that city aud embellished with illustra-
tions.. Now comes the Fiat Top Monitor,
published in the very section in which
the state Of affairs are alleged to exist,
with a denial of the whole story. The
Monitor says:
"The sensational article published by
some Of the city dailies, depicting the
alleged abject slavery ofseven Bohemians
who claim to have been sent into this
coal field by an employment agency in
New York, is as untounded as the tales
of Munchausen."

The story that the Northwestern free
silver Republicans have decided on Mr..
Blaine as their candidate for 1892 Is very
curious and has probably ne foundation
except in tho Imagination Of the Wash
ington correspondent Of the New York
Mail and Express. Evidences that it is
somewhat fshy are found in the
statements that the object Of the
leaders who in secret conclave
evolved the scheme is to be re-
yenged on President Harrison for kill
ing of free coinage, and that the whole
matter is to be kept secret from Mr.
Blaine himself.
Why, In selecting man with whom
TO revenge themselves on Mr.. Harrison,
the free silveriteD should choose one who
is in perfect accord with the administers
ton on monetary matters, Is not clear.
In fact, it is 20 improbable that a state
ment that auch a thing has been done
warrants tho assumption that the whole
story Is absurdly untrue.
Granting that such course was DE-
cided upon by the alleged conference, it
isnot at all likely that It will ever be
carried out. Mr.. Blaine will promptly
enter his protest and stop any move

ANew Jprsey nTura or Case.


Lingo. the colored man who has been
ON trial in Camden, New Jersey, for the
murder Of Mrs. Annie Miller, has been
found guilty in the first degree. When
the Jury retired two members were in
favor Of acquittal. After four hours OF
discussion the two came in and sgreed
to the verdict as it was recorded.
The Philadelphia newspapers say that
the verdict was a surprise in view Of the
testimony and OF the charge Of the court
The Pres thinks new trial will Ger
taiuly be granted, and the verdict may
even be set aside. The 7ims says "the
evidence did not seem to be Of chatac'
ter to carry conviction"
The fact geems to be that the friendi
Of the white man Chalkley Leconey
tied and acquitted of the murder OF An
ME Leconey, had their reasons for de
string the conviction Of Lingo, who had
for a short time been under arrest FOL
the murder OF Annie Leconey. Besiues
this, Lingo was a shittless fellow wht
had been in prison for larceny and burg
lary.
Tho point Of the case, as it shows it
self at this distance, ia that certain pub
lie continent demanded the man's con
viction, and the jury yielded. In the
New Orleans case the jury stood more III
dread Of the Malta than Of public opin
ion. The Lingo case is not much mort
creditable to the administration Of JUS
tice than the Malta case was.
II iuries are to be coerced to convic
or 10 acquit, there is some point to the
contention that the jury system has out
lived its usefulness.
