HE WILL SOON BE OUT
Chairman Prick Will Be On His Feet in Two Weeks.
eERkMAN's PRELIMINARY HEARING

Admitted to Bail in the Sum of 924, ,OOO-
 Not Furnish It--Gsn. Snowden's Views
 on the Treatment of Iams.
 -PTTTsBURG, July 30.-The bulletin issued by the attending surgeon indicates but little change in H. c. Tricks condition save in the direction of continued i'm provement. Mir. Tricks recovery from his very dangerous injuries has been so very rapid and satisfactory that his at tendants are now compelled to admit that their judgment was in error as to the length of time that must necessarily elapse to complete the cure.
 It is now thought that the iron master will be on his feet and again personally assume the direction of the varied inter ests of the Carnegie Steel Company in two or three weeks at the latest.
 Wouldbe Assassin Berkman, who was given a preliminary hearing in the county Jail office, was admitted to bail, aggregat- ing SPA, 900. This was not furnished, and the guilty Anarchist is remanded for court. Police Justice Grip and Alderman McMasters presided at the hearing. Judge Grip examined witnesses on the charge of felonious assault, preferred by Superin- tendent of Police O'Mara, and held the prisoner in $10,000.
 Alderman McMasters examined wit nesses on three different charges-of entry of building with intent to commit a felony, one charge of felonious assault | and another charge of carrying concealed ! weapons. The bail fixed aggregates $14,- GOO. The elevator man, David Fortney, l of the "Chronicle-Telegr building and Chairman Leishmann of the Carnegie Company were the only witnesses exam | ined. District-Attorney Burleigh was also present, and asked the prisoner if he | intended to shoot MT. Leishmann. He ! replied:
 ''No, did not want to shoot anybody but Prick"
 "Was it your intention to kill Mir. Prick, 1 or just to torture him3" asked Mir. Bur leigh.
 II wanted to kill him." said Berk- man.
 | Application was made in the morning for the release on bail of the three sus- poets, Bauer, Knold and Mollecke, now in | the Central police station, charged as ac- | cessories with Berkman. | Paul Eckhardt, leader among the To- ! cal Anarchists, has been delegated by
 the local groups to look after the legal in
 terests of the imprisoned men, and has l secured the services of Attorney Friedman
 to represent Bauer and Knold, while At
 torney Henry Meyer will represent Mol
 lecke.
 In an interview with Eckhardt, he said
 "We can get all the bail we want for tht
 imprisoned Anarchists. We can easily
 get $1O,O ,O00, and they should and will be
 be admitted to bail I know what am
 talking about when I say that they can
 not do anything with Bauer or Knold
 They are Anarchists, 1t is true, but that
 Is not crime. We will not see then

THE STEEL INDUSTRY.

Carroll D. Wright, commissioner of labor, whose authority will not be dis puted, has prepared some interesting figures regarding the labor cost of ton of steel rails in this country and in Europe. In making his computations Commissioner Wright followed the ore step by step through every process of manufacture up to the finished rail, adding the labor cost of producing the materials to the labor cost of each change. For basis of reckoning he had returns from thirteen factories two in this country, three in Great Britain and eight on the continent of Europe Here is the result of his in- vestigation:
 Labor cost in this country, $11.59 Labor cost in Great Britain, 7.S1 Labor cost on the continent, SIC
 It will be seen that the labor cost of a ton of steel rails, including every stage in the process of manufacture, is greater in this country than in England by exactly $3.7s.
 A duty of $4 per ton, not to speak of the cost of transportation, would there fore amply protect the American pro- ducer, and answer the hypocritical de. mand of the republican platform. But the Mckinley duty is $13.44. Sheltered by this duty, the steel trust is able tc maintain the market price at $50 pel ton.
 That $13.44, is is plain to see, is not z
 tariff for protection to American labor
 It is tariff for the plumber of American \ consumers.

Work of the Weather Bureau.

In the past, good reasons have ren-
 dered it impossible to make the weather
 service of very great value to the farm
 CT. In the main its work has been the
 preparation of the familiar predictions,
 which have been made for large areas.
 At present the areas selected are single
 states. The predictions are made by
 an officer in Washington to whom ob-
 servations are reported from a large
 number of stations situated in various
 parts of the country. He glances over these reports, noting the places where rain has fallen and the net work of temperature and bar ometeric pressure; sees how the condi-
 tions have been changing since the last predictions were made; and, perhaps with scarcely time to weigh the reasons for his conclusions, makes up his predic- tions in regard to the weather of the immediate future. He can give but very small amount of time-perhaps two minutes-to each state The work of forecaSting the weather, says a writer in the Century, must De uIVluS1s hhOS HI auNAIAO@4 " SA~0 general predictions from Washington, we must have local predictions prepared by officers in charge of small districts Such officers have already been appoint
 ed by the secretary of agriculture, and their number will doubtless be increased when the usefulness of their work is
 shown. This, however, cannot be fully demonstrated until, by the cheapening of telegraph and telephone service, and by the extension of free mail delivery, l effective means are found for carrying
 the predictions to the farmer in time for his use. The present work of the | local observers is of service in perfect ing their methods, and their forecasts are of great usefulness to the farmers who can be reached; but their full value
 can never be realized until it is possible
 to put them promptly into the hands ot \ all the farmers who can use them.

THE republican senate, feeling some what ashamed of not having taken any action on the house bills for the admis- sion of Arizona and New Mexico to the union, has adopted resolution author izing the committee on territories to visit those territories and Utah and Oklahoma during the recess in search of information. This is humbug. Sena- tors can obtain no more information about those territories by a personal visit than is already in their possession.

TO CONTROL THE FUR TRADE.
A Combine of Dealers With 10000, ,OO'
 Has Just Been Announced.

Has Just Been Announced.
 NEW YORK, Jrly 80.-The combina- tion of fur dealers throughout the country to control the sealskin trade which has just been announced may not seem inn portant to the people of the United St'Ges now when heat costs nothing, but it may be a matter of great concern to them during coming winters.
 It is possible that the new trust will lower prices here. It may also be the deciding factor in the Boring Sea contro- versy. The principal fur houses of this country have united themselves into a company, with capital which, it is ex- pected, will be $1O,000, ,000-though papers have not yet been filed or prospec- tuses sent out.
 The combination is known as the George 0. Treadwell Company and is named after the famous Albany fur dealers, who are in possession of a secret for dressing and dyeing sealskins superior to English and French methods. The Treadwells have heretofore refused to cure sealskins for other firms, which have been obliged to send their furs to London to be put through the process.
 This has been a great expense, but the new company owns the secret, having se- cured it over the offers of an English syn dicate. The combination was effected ir tho office of Riker & Riker, in Newark and the Chemical National and Merchants ts National banks, in this city, will bring out the stock here.
 Among the directors are George Thatch CT, John D. Parsons and George H. Tread well, Albany bankers. K. L. Ridgeway and w. B. Tims, of this city, are inter ested in the company. The new concerr will dress and dye skins for home dealers and arrange for mutual protection in bad years and seasons of small seal catches It is said that there are 0,0OO sealskins ir New York caught by poachers and affected by the Bering Sea arbitration.

THE record of American industries Is sometimes particularly startling, es- pecially when you realize what num- bers really mean There is 0 brick com pany along the Hudson river that has been hard at work all the season, and it is estimated that the total output of bricks will be seventy-flve million before the working year Is over. To appreciate what this number means it is interest ing to go into little calculation. Sup pose person should count from one to a hundred minute and keep it up every hour in the day. 1t would take him near ly two years to count seventy-6ve mil | lion. Think of that! And then imagine one company making that many bricks in one season!
