The Presidents Vacation.

Ii there is a disposition in any quarter
to sensure the President for leaving
Washington at this time and returning
to his summer home for the purpose of
rest and recreation, says the New York
Tribune, it is to be deplored and con-
demned. Mr. Cleveland, whatever his
political faults and failings may be, is
known to the whole country as man
of great industry and of entire devotion
to what he conceives to be the official
duties of his station. 1t is possible to
criticise him for surrender too much of
his time and strength to details of bust
ness from which subordinates might re-
lieve him, but it would be grossly unjust
to accuse him of incidence or indiffer
ence to his public obligations.
The preservation of the Presidents
health is of great Importance to the
country, and Mr.. Cleveland has obeyed
a sense of duty in returning to Gray Ga
bles. He has frankly confessed his
WEAKNESS and need of repose, and not
even the emergency which has required
an extra session of Congress could have
justified him in remaining at the capital
at the peril of his health. We sincerely
hope that he will rapidly regain his &C
customed vigor and we heartily commend
his wisdom, as we recognize his, consci-
entiousness, in taking the safest and sur
est course to recovery.

A Bright Outlook in Pittsburg.

PITTsBURG, Aug. 1.-THE outlook in
the iron and steel trade is brighter to-
day than at any time since the closing
of the mills for annual repairs and the
shortage of currency.
AT Jones & Laughlins several depart
mants resumed operation this morning
and 500 additional men were given ems
ployment. Arrangements are in pro-
gress for resumption in the steel depart
ment in few days. The report that the
wages of the men not affected by the
amalgamated scale would be reduced 10
per cent is not true.
Both Carnegie's local mills and the
Beaver Falls plant will be in operation
this week, as will also probably be Zug
& Co.'s works. The Braddock Wire
Works at Rankin Station started up to>
day, after two months idleness, giving
employment to 700 men.
number of departments of the Ma
tional Tube works resumed yesterday
and the National Rolling Mill will be
started on Wednesday. Next Monday
the Black Diamond Steel Works will
start up in all departments.
The works were running about half
time and shut down last Saturday, but
when the resumption takes place the
full quota of 4. 900 men will be given en-
ploym't. The mills will give employment
to upward of $4,000 men.

CHARLES g. EDDY SHOT.
An Ex-Vice President of the Reading
Dead in Chicago.


CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-THE body of Chas.
g. Eddy, late second Vice-President of
the Reading system was found in Wash
ington Park last night. In his hand was
a revolver, and in his right temple an
ugly bullet hole.
Why Mr.. Eddy should have committed
suicide is unknown. He had been with
his wife at the Metropole Hotel for the
past three months. Two weeks ago she
went to Wisconsin resort and Mr.. Eddy
stayed behind to attend to his business.
There is striking coincidence be-
tween the taking off of Mr. Eddy and
that of Franklin B. Gowan, formerly
president of the Reading, who was found
dead in a hotel at Washington from a
bullet wound. In Mr.. Gowan's case
there was some suspicion that he was
victim of the vengeance of the Molly Ma
guireS.

Big Furnace to Start Up at Once.

Allegheny Furnace at Iron Gate Va,
will 60 into blast at once. Mr. Merri- |
wether Jones, the secretary and mana
ager of the Furnace, received full tele-
graphic instructions last night from Mr..
f. G. Dininny, of Elmira, N. Y, the
millionaire hacker OF the concern, to
start up at once, that he had sent the
necessary funds. This is certainly good
news for Virginia and it shows how the
wind is blowing. The Allegheny is one
of the large ST furnaces in the South. 1t
has been out of blast since lost May.
Mr. Jones says it will take a week or ten
days to organize his force. Ly',chbufg
1dDance.
This corresponds with statement
made in the Weekly several issues ago,
and confirms information which we
have since received. The output OF the
Iron Gate Furnace, while it was in blast,
was remarkably good. The pig metal
was sold as fast as cast, and when the
furnace was banked every ton had been
disposed of, and not a complaint entered
against it. Indeed, for new furnace, its
record is phenomenal, and we have no
doubt it was the great favor with which
the output was regarded that has induc-
ed the manager to go in blast again.
! 1t seems to us that there ought to be
some plan devised and adopted by which
| the furnace owners, the mine owners
and the laborers, by mutual concession
and agreement, could arrange to keep
all the furnaces in that section in opera
ton. The scarcity of money is the only
impeachment of every furnace in that
section continuing in blast. At least it is
matter worthy on consideration, for
if an understanding could be reached by
which the hundreds of wage-earners
could be kept employed, it would prove
a blessing in many ways to every class
of people.
We feel sure, too, that tina extreme de-
preston in the iron business cannont con-
tinue long-that there must, in the ma
ture of things, be an active movement in
it soon, and when it does come the fur
naces in operation will reap the benefit.
1t is not reasonable that stagnation
and paralysis should continue in this
line of goods. The demand for it is here;
4 the money is here, and the energy and
brains are here. They are all simply in
allegiance, and the least thing may turn
the current Of business andAgive an i'm
petus and motion to enterprise that will
revive every line of trade and activity in
every channel Of endeavor.
Mr.. Dininny has acted wisely in the
step he is about taking. Others ought
to follow his example and arrange in
some way to keep their plants in opera

precautionary measure was adopted to
avoid possible danger of serious runs from

Stop Hoard1ng Currency.

One of the unusual features of the ex-
isting financial stringency is the premium
paid for the use of currency or actual
money in hand, and yet there never has
been more currency per capita in exist
ence than now. Why was currency SUI
ficiently plentiful for all needs six months
ago and so scarce as to command a pre-
MUM now, when there has been neither
contraction nor expectation, when, in
point of fact, that which sufficed for all
needs at the beginning of the year is
here still.
There can be but one answer to this
question and that is that everybody is
boarding the currency and thus withe
drawing it from circulation. The banks
are not to blame, for they are the worst
sufferers from the dirth of circulating
medium. Everyone who withdraws his
savings or other bank deposit to lock it
up in a safe or deposit vault, every work
man who puts his wages in an old stock
ing, every small dealer who boards his
daily receipts in coin or currency, in
short, all men or women of any calling
or profession who treat the money COM
ing into their possession us though they
ware afraid they would never see a dol
lar again, contribute to that extent to
the money stringency.
The most effective way to restore con-
fidence and easy financial conditions is
for each individual to do with the money
in his possession as he would if no scare
ity of money existed-that is, buy and
sell and pay bills as though no panic was
ever dreamed Of If this were done for
one week there would be no more bank
suspensions and no more premiums paid
for the use of actual money. AS Horace
Greedy said of the resumption of specie
payments that the way to resume was to
resume, the way to restore financial con-
fidence and easy money is to be conf
dent This applies alike is wage Garner,
employer and capitalist. Confidence
will be restored and the money stringen
cy measurably relieved just as soon as
everybody stops boarding and allows the
currency to flow in it's accustomed chan
nels.-Philadelphia Times.

DID NOT BLOW OUT.

We learn that Low Moor furnace did
not blow out, on the LIST of August, as it
was rumored it would. This is crafty
ing, and we hope the same will be the
case with Victoria furnace at Goshen,
which, it was said, would blow out that
date. The only reason for such suspen-
( sion, if it had taken place, was the strin-
gency in the money market. There is
no difficulty in selling iron, but buyers,
heretofore prompt in cash payments, can
get accommodation from the banks, and
can give no assurance of ready payment.
The furnaces and mines cannot be run
without ready money, as labor must
have monthly payments, and it is labor
that constitutes 80 per cent. of their ops
erations. The quality of the iron is all
right-labor is abundant, but money,
for the time, is scarce We hope all the
furnaces and mines in the Rich Patch
district will see their way clear to con-
tinue in active operation. Otherwise it
would be serious disadvantage to every
interest in that section.

THE PRESIDENTS HEALH.

Some time before Mr.. Cleveland issued
his proclamation calling Congress to
gether in extra session he wrote to a
New England college in answer to an in
vitation to attend an important ami
versary of the college in October: Il ex-
pect to have the Congress on my hands
at that time,n he wrote, land it will be
impossible for me to be absent from
Washington for any length of time"
MANY of Mr. Cleveland's friends have
been apprehensive about his health for
some time. Infiammatory rheumatism
in a man of his age and weight is likely,
physicians say, to lead to serious compli-
cations. Those who saw the President
as he passed through town yesterday did
not feel treasured regarding his health.
His color was not good and there was an
air of lassitude about him which was
quite foreign to his nature as it has been
observed on public occasions. He had
the appearance of a man who was think
ing about his health and was Indifferent
| to public scrutiny. He had been uT
since 6 a. III. and his face showed it. He
walked between DR.. Bryant and Secre
tary Lamont, his two most intimate
| friends.
A summer neighbor of the Presidents
at Buzzard's Bay says that Mr.. Cleve-
lands habit Of making nearly every pc
| litical appointment himself has done
more than anything else to wear hin
out. Often. after an al! day fishing trip
he spends half the night in reading ano
answering the immense correspondence
which his assumption of the work
usually left to Cabinet officers, imposes
on him. Then the financial troubles
have worried him, although he has done
nothing about them beyond writing the
special message to Congress.
