American Steel for American Ships.
The adoption OF settled naval policy
by our Government has been one OF
the most important factors in the pres
ent marvellous development of the
steel industry in this country. The
rigorous tests so wisely imposed by
the Navy Steel Board have forced the
Carnegie interests the Bethlehem COM
pany, the Carbon Iron Company, Of
Pittsburg, and other great producers
to find, by scientific researches and
tireless experiment, modes of manu-
facture adequate to the reqr irements
demanded.
With that power of adoption to the
new circumstances so characteristic Of
our national genius, the American
steel makers are now furnishing a ma
terial for ships and structural pur-
poses and for armor which is unequal
led. Native steel is used also for the
armament, whether it be in the enor'
nous armor piercing calibres or IN
the rapid fire guns, which will, by their
sustained intensity Of fire, count for so
much in modern warfare.
In the new vessels authorized the Car
negie interests are furnishing the met
al for two battle ships and two CRUZ
sers and the Carbon Iron Company
the steel needed in one battle ship and
two cruisers, Among these two last
is that wonderful cruiser, now known
as Number Thirteen, which Mr.. Tracy
says will, in performance, have no peer
in any service afoat.-N. Y. Herald.

One word with regard to the ore: It onened
better than we expected. 1t smostly hematite
but there are some brown ores. As to the
quantity, well, so far as our experience goes,
and so far as the development has gone, there
appears to be no reason for the present genera
tion troubling themselves on this point. Our
manager reports that the ores are we'll within
the Bessemer limits. Exclusive OF the ores
which we shall require to burn in our own
furnace we shall be able TO sell surplus ore at
the rate of 100 tons to 200 tons dav.-Hon Il. H.

Mr.. AlIenan.

The Chattanooga News says the
Banner is getting things backward
when it declares that Assistant Com.
missioner of Labor Alleman should
answer the charge made against him,
not by mere denial, but by a com
plete REPUTATION OF it. Says the News /;
1t strikes us that a man is always
considered innocent until proven
guilty. Itmay be well enoughin justice
to himself for Mr. Alleman to demand
an official investigation, but there is
no necessity for him, or any other
State official, to go to the trouble and
expense Of disproving everything that
Tom, Dick or Harry may be pleased
to say about him. 1t would be bad
precedent, involving endless newspa-
per wrangles
While it is true that man is legally
held to be- innocent until he is proven
guilty, the News must remember that
Innocence can not rest content with
the mere technical refuge suggested.
1t is the impulse of a high sense Of per-
sonal and official honor and integrity
: to demand positive vindication from
false accusation o so graveaan import
as will leave a doubt of limo ceuce if not
completely reiuted. We think Mr.. AL
leman can do no less than insist that
the Governor make an investigation
of the charges.-Nashville Banner.

The Case Against Judge Woods.


The Case Against Judge Woods.
The Appointment Of Judge Woods
to the Circuit Bench, following altar
the Presidents protest in his message
against alleged corruptions Of the bal
lot box, is such an exhibition Of Re
publican hypocrisy that it justifics re
peated comment.
1t is no longer disputed by we'll in
formed men that the Republican lead
els secured the vote of Indiana by fol-
lowing the written instructions Of W,
W. Dudley and purchasing votes in
"blocks of five"
So notorious was this method Of cor
rupting the ballot box that November
10, 1888, when the Federal grand jury
was assembled, Judge Woods t, 1t call.
ed on to instruct it plainly and specih-
cally concerning their duty. In his
CnaTSe Judge NOouS sdlu
"The federal statutes make aiding,
counseling or procuring or advising
any voter to commit bribery, to com
NIT any of the acts declared in section
5511 to be crime, substantial Of
tense, not dependent upon the commit
ting or attempting to commit any of
the named ofenses"
Following these instructions, the
grand jury began its investigations.
These led right home to persons in
high authority, and the Judge was
called on "to save the men who elected
President Harrison"
An adjournment was secured until
January. When the jury reassembled
Judge Woods was ready with a new
opinion concerning section 5511
Again he delivered his charge to the
grand jury, il which he said
"But in any case besides the mere
fact of the advice or counsel, it must be
shown that the crime contemplated
was committed, or an attempt made tC
commit it. 1t results, of course, that
the mere sending of one to another o.
a letter or document containing advice
to buy voters, or setting forth a scheme
for such bribery, however bold or rep
rehensible, is not indictable."
This second charge fitted Dudley
case exactly. The Judge from th,
bench in January ruled that an offence
was not indictable, though in Novem
Der he declared this offence to be {
substantial crime.
This change of front was a shock t
| the moral conscience OF the people
Nothing since the days of the expos
ure OF the Whisky Ring so aroused tn

demand for the adoption OF the secre

NEW YORK. Nov. 6.-The stock market
to-day was quiet but strong during the fore
noon but the bears under the leadership of
Cammac6 were active sellers of the whole
market ia the afternoon, but weakness took
the place of the former strength, and losses
were sustained among the few shares which
received the most severe pounding. Various
rumOrs of a disquieung nature were set
afioat. The actual news of the day was al
most entirely of a favorable nature, but Lon
don was both a seller and buyer. while no
reason appeared for the selling, and foreign
houses are inclined to believe that the sell
ing orders were sent from this side of the
ocean for effect upon prices here.
the onslaught in the afternoon was very
vigorous and again the Coal stocks, Changers
snd Eanderbilts felt the force OF the pres
sure The selling was undoubtedly entirely
for the short account. and. while few stop
orders were uncovered, there was a marked
lack of stock for sale and the strength of the
general situation was shown in the reluct-
ance of the rest of the list to follow the weak
stocks. In the early dealings all the stocks

Later the Changers. Coalers and some

NO CAR FAMINE YET.
Chicago and Eastern Roads Ex-
pect One Later.

CHICAGO, Nov. 6.-RepOrts sent out
from here to the effect that the car fam
inc had finally come are decidedly pre-
mature, SO far as the Chicago lines are
concerned. Inquiries at the headquar-
tiers of the various companies to-day re-
suited in the assurance that none of
them are cramped for cars as yet. Asa
matter of fact, the fall business has
been disappointing thus far, the roads
having made preparations to handle
much larger tonnage than has material
lied. 1t is confidently expected, how
ever, that rush of business is about TO
begin, and that before another fort
night has passed some of the lines will
have good reason to complain of the
scarcity of rolling stock. New corn is
now moving, some of it having been re-
ceived here to-day.
Eastern lines are looking for big in
crease in traffic through the inability OF
the lake lines to fulfill their contracts.
1t is admitted by vessel agents that
every one of tile lake transportation
companies has contracted more freight
than it can possibly carry during the
short time Intervening before the close
Of navigation. / hey are all bidding
frantically for outside vessels, but APP
paTently without success. Consequently
it will probably be necessary to turn
over a considerable portion of this
freight to the railroads. The roads are
already getting the bulk of the cats, and
several of the boat lines have refused to
take any more grain of that kind, so
there seems 10 be no reason why the
statements of east-bOund shipments
should not show big increases from this
time forward.
