victory az this time is very important
10 the country and the party. He
and Mr.. Campbell represent the
honest difference between the TWO par
teSat this time. There is no lodging
and no evasion, and the voter need not
be deceived. The election Of Mckinley
means the policy Of protection and hon
est money. The election of Campbell
means free trade and the corruption Of
the currency. / believe Ohio will stand
By Mckinley. Very sincerely,

WASHINGTON, September 25.-There
is yet outstanding 50, 142, 900 OF the AZ
per cent. loan which has not yet been
continued, or redeemed. There re-
mains only FIVE official days in which
any Of these bonds will be received for
continuance at two per cent, as the
Secretary has given notice the time will
expire on the 3Oth inst. The govern
ment deposits in National Bank deposi-
tories have now been reduced to $13,-
$685.
Secretary Foster does not contemplate
any immediate further reduction other
than what will take place as a result OF
the recent call on certain banks and the
entire abolition of other repositories in
some of the towns where there were
more than was deemed necessary. The
total amount Of the government hold
ings in national banks will thus be
brought down to about S12, 900, 600,
Of space.
.STsebdeMber 25.-A morning
paper says England and Germany,
through their government representa-
tives yesterday asked Director General
Davis to give them 200, 900 square feet
of floor space for exhibits. The signif-
cance of the demand lies in that it set
ties all cavil as to the international char
acter of the exposition and assures dis
plays from the great European nations
that will surpass anything the Worlds
Fair management had hoped.
France will, Of course, expect an
area eqIal to that granted the other
two powers and has already been prep
aratiOns to them in extent in character
of her exhibits, so that these three ma
tions alone will occupy fourteen square
miles Of space. The foreigners want to
group their exhibit in the four great de-
partments of machinery, electricity,
fine arts and manufactures.

A New Railroad.

1t is stated on very good authority that the
Reading Railroad has III contemplation the
extension of It's road from Gettysburg to
Frederick, the line to run several miles cast
of Emmitsburg. The purpose is Ito secure
new markets for Reading coal. Should it be
built, its further extension to Washington
would be only matter Of time. Several
parties have been spoken to about securing
rights of way aud subscriptions. If cncour-
agemcnt is given in these two things, the
Reading will willingly embark in the enter
prlse-Fred1nk Nens.
The above will no doubt be very int rest
ing to both those who had hoped to get such
Il line through Emmi,sburg and to the Read
ing officials themselves However, for the
benefit of onr readers, we assure them that
the Reading il not even contemplating the
construction of such line, but If our people
are ready to 60 to WORK, they will find that
company willing to cooperate with them in
every way possible. That the road will ev-
er pass Emmitsburg by several miles 10 as
unlikely rs that we will have direct COM
munCAtl0 with the Moon III the near flu
ture If IT passes us ii will be at distance
OF good many miles, but we lave The assur-
anCe that If We are ready to 20 to work the
Reading will stand in with lis. What say
You railroad men, shall it come? As our
information comes direct from Mr.. A. A.

READY FOR THE TEST.
Carnegie, Phipps e. Co. Have Five
Nickel-Steel Plates Completed.
THOUGHT TO BE TOO EXPENSIVE.
Carriage Makers Demand a Reduction in
Their Working Hours,
A DAYS GRIST FROM LABOR CIRCLES

Carnegie, Phipps s. Co. have completed
the manufacture of five armor plates made
from nickel steel, which in few days will
be shipped to Annapolis TO be tested. The
plates are made as an experiment, and the
entire order of 5000 tons of armor plate to
be made for the Government BY the hrm
depends upon the result OF the test. These
mates are each inches thick and by 8
feet in dimensions, and each weighs 8, 400
mounds. Two are made from steel and
three from nickel steel. If these plates,
which are to undergo the use OF a Six
FOUNDER Hotchkiss gun, prove inadequate,
further tests will be made with plates ranging
from TO lO1S inches in thickness.
The results of the experiments made with
nickel steel by this firm have been noted in THE
DISPATCH from time to time, since the first
test was made. There is no doubt that the
QUALITY Of the material is improved upon IN a
great measure by the addition of nickel.
There are some doubts as to It's being
adopted for armor plates BY tne G0veLn%en da baHe
varied The 1rst one was with CON-
pound iron, the second with PLAN steel.
and the third with nickel steel. Inc nrst
test made with the nickel steel showed 1t TO be
of a superior quality in every respect as COM
pared with either of the others A later test
put the PLAN steel on an equality with the
nickel steel.
A naval officer made inquiries about the sew
eral tests and the cost of production, but e1.
pressed himself as being fearful that the nickel
would not be adopted because of the additional
cost The cost of nickel is 75 to so cents
pound. The introduction of per cent of nickel
would make difference of Sl7 ton In the
price of the finished Steel In the plates that
have been made, per cent OF the nickel was
used. which increases the cost of tie plates
over Sl00 each.
In regard the claims set up by the Engnsn
syndicate for a royalty of cents pound on
allnickei-steel armor made an official OF Car
negie, Phipps & Co. said yesterday be was not
surprised to hear of it, although they had not
received any NOTICE of any definite action being
taken He SAID he knew that Schneider Co.
held American patents on a process for making
nickel.steel, but the question as to whether
the patents have been infringed upon is 10 De
determined,

WAITING ON THE SECRETARY.

Mr.. Proctor Has Not Yet Fixed the HEIGHT
of the Hudson Bridge.
Colonel James P. Andrews went TO New
York last evening to attend a monthly meeting
of the directors of the Hudson River Bridge
Company. The Colonel stated that the Naval
Commission appointed to take testimony for
and against the structure had finished its work,
and the company was now waiting for the opin.
ion of the Secretary of War who will fix the
height. If it is not too high the bridge will be
built.
The Colonel said it didn't cost much to make
bridge higher, hut the trouble was that it
might become impossible to make approaches
that engines with trains could climb. The
Colonel claims the bridge is sure to be built
sooner or later.
