"If coke were gwen us we could not
compete with the South" 1t appears
that the competition of southern iron had
more TO do with the shutdown Of the iron
furnaces in the Mahonng valley than the
price OF coke and railway discrimination.
Only two furnaces IN the valley are in
blast. Pig iron has fallen in price 81 per
ton in the last four months, and iron is
bought from the southern furnaces and
sold here at fifty cents cheaper than it
can be made in this city or valley. The
furnace men declare that if coke were
given them they could not compete with
the southern iron. They have shut down
to ascertain whether the southern men
are selling cheap merely to get foot
hold in the market or whether they have Q
profit at present pricc.-Nelc York Sun.

THE MODERN VOYAGE.
Improvements OF the Age for the Coi

improvements OF the Age for the Con-
venIence of Travellers
The reduction of time in the ocean
passage is the most remarlze Of all
modern steamship advances, but by no
means the most important The mul-
titudes who are now about to come
home from Europe are not greatly ad-
vantaged by the saving of day in the
passage, but they are enormously ben
Gifted by the improvements which
have made the passage safe and so
much more comfortable than OF old.
The modern ocean liner is a great
machine against which the anger of
the sea is impotent. No weather i'm
perils its safety, no wind endangers it,
no stress of storm can overcome its
strength The passenger knows from
the outset that whatever winds may
blow his arrival in safety is as certain
as anything human can be.
But the Improvement does not stop
with safety. The form of these ma
chimes is such that the old distresses
Of motion are reduced 70 a minimum.
The passenger who walks deck high in
air feels far less of the seas rage than
did his predecessor of a score of years
ago who sailed just above the turbu-
| lent surface. There are still persons
who suffer with seasickness, but Their
number grows smaller and the extent
| of their suffering less. With many ot
them the qualms are due to pre-
viously excited imagination, or to some
physical condition for which the sea
sickness is as good u remedy as any
other.
The shortening of the voyage is 9
| gain, but the improvements which
haze made the voyage safe and com
Portable even to the point of luxury
have contributed far more to the sun
of human happiness.-N. Y. World
