JUST HOW IT HAPPENED.

Manager Rhoe Explains Rumor of an Ac.
cident at the Eraddock Wire Mill.
There have been sensational rumors afloat
in industrial circles for two or three days
relative to an alleged accident at the Brad.
dock wire mill, in which two men were sup.
posed to have been seriously injured. On
Saturday the matter was reported at Anal
gamated headquarters, and call was made
at the city office of the firm, but none of the
officials had heard anything about the ac-
cident.
Yesterday word was received at the Office
of the Anlalgamated Association that Two
men were injured while at work in the mill,
and one Of them SO badly that he had to be
hauled away in a wagon. 1t was claimed
that the firm was trying to keep the matter
quiet. Last night Manager Rhos said that
an accident had occurred, but no effort had
been made TO suppress the TACT. IIe said
that while two men were working about q
gas pipe one of them fell and hurt his ankle.
He was taken to his home in Williamsburg
in a wagon as a matter of convenience, be-
cause there was no train.

two cities. TIE Pinthapaeon Club has
heretofore been entirely history reading
and social circle composed of young ALLIE
ghenians. Now they have decided to branch
out with lawn tennis, and during the fine
weather last week broke ground for a couple
of courts on Fremont street. Numerous
other clubs have been organized Tor lawn
tennis or have added that as one of their
features.
With this array of clubs tennis tourna-
ments the coming summer will be numer-
Gus. Each of the clubs OF the Western
Pennsylvania branch of the National As
sociation of Tennis Clubs will give one or
more tournaments, and the Amateur Ath.
letic Association proposes also TO give a
tennis tournament as well as several other
field sport days.
If Pittsburg and Allegheny do not pro-
duce large corps of good young athletes
and tennis players it will not be because no
chance to learn the sport could be found.
No place in the country can now boast of SO
many clubs for the advancement Of amateur
sporting

AN EPICURFAN ORGANIZATION.
The Order of Cooks, Its Objects, Rules and
Secret Work.

The Order of Cooks, Its Objects, Rules and
Secret Work.
Detroit Free Press.l
Eugene Beller, Chief Organizer of the
National Cosmopolitan Culinary, Pastry
and Con fectionery Association, is stopping
for few days at the Wayne Hotel. Mr..
Beller is sent out by the Grand Epicurean
College, of Chicago, to organize the cooks OF
Detroit into council of that society.
"No, SIR" he said, ''the association has
nothing whatever to do with the knights OF
Labor or Federation of Labor. The cooks,
although a very hard-working class, con-
slider themselves artists, and it is
against the constitution of the asso-
citation, which is secret order, to join
or submit to the laws of any other society.
1.-THE secret work Of the order is very
beautiful and is divided into four grades,
each with its grip, signs and password, and
each council has an employment bureau for
the benefit of its members. The crowning
object of this order will be the establishment:
of epicurean colleges all over the United
States. In these colleges the real art of
cooking will be taught bv experienced
professors, probably the chefs of the leading
hotels of such cities. Parents can send their
sons and daughters to these colleges, to he
made proficient in the noble art of cooking"

Splendid MauBOleum.
The ceremonies ut the Pantheon, in

effect was impressive, but distinctly pagan.

PROSPECT OF A CUT.
Iron Rates May BE Reduced New That
Navigation Has Opened.
A JOINT MEETING In NEW YORK.
Freight Agents Claim the Situation Has
improved Slightly.
PRICE OF FOUNDRY IRON ADVANCED

The question of reducing the east and
west bound iron rates from this territory,
which includes the Mahoning and Shenango
Valleys, will be considered to-day In New
York. at a joint meeting of the Central
Traffic and Trunk Line Association. The
local roads will be represented by General
Freight Agent Cromlish, of the Pittsburg
and Western, c. S. Wight, General Freight
Agent OF the Western Baltimore and Ohio,
and Assistant General Freight Agent c. L.
Cole, of the Pennsylvania company.
The valley iron men over a month ago
asked for rate of 10 cents to Chicago,
but the railroads in the Central Traffic As
sociation were so evenly divided for and
against the reduction that it was not made.
The vote was IA against 13 to grant the de-
mand. Mr.. Wight said last evening it
was customary to reduce rates in the spring
at the opening of navigation, and he was
of the opinion that some kind of cut
would be made. but he couldn't say how
much. The work of the joint meeting will
be to determine this point and the time
when the rates shall go into effect.
General Freight Agent Cromlish said:
"The situation has changed since the Chi
cago meeting. Foundry and mill iron has
advanced from so cents to IS per ton. You
would find it bad job to buy foundry iron
in the valleys to-day. The stock has been
.ised up, but there is still good supply of
Bessemer pig. In Chicago one of the
iron men said that not more than
$4,000 tons of Southern pig
iron were shipped into the valleys in year.
This is an insignificant amount, but then 1
readily understand how this iron affects the
market and determines the price. The
trunk lines are generally stiff in their de-
mands, and 1 can't say in advance what
will be done at the meeting. 1 am told that
the Eastern iron trade Is not badly de-
pressed, and these lines will hesitate about
reducing rates in the West that will also
apply in the East Here is where the hitch
will come in. As for the coke rates they
are controlled by the Pemickey, Baltimore
and Ohio and Pennsylvania roads. The
request for a reduction has passed beyond
the freight agents to the higher officials"
An iron man who happened to be going
East last night, claimed that the pig iron
market had not improved, and the broker
who bought iron at the present prices would
not make a fortune out OF it two months
from now.
