GENERAL NEWS
f. OF INDUSTRIES

Although there was an increase dur
log the month OF June OF nearly third
In the weekly production Of pig iron
and the consumption in the manufac-
ture was nearly 10000 tons per week
greater than the output OF furnaces, 1t
10 questionable, says Dun. whether any
further improvement has yet occurred
In July. Many OF the western establish
ments were stopped because the block
ads of railroads cut off their supplies OF
fuel, and have not yet veutursd to re-
sumo Others west of Pittsburg have
been inactive because the coal strike
continues. and the limited production
scarcely suffers for the needs Of the
works near at hand. Behind MI other
embarrassment there is reasonable
narrowness of demand for finished pro.
ducts. In all quarters there is much
disappointment because after the stop
page of works for months, there ap-
pears scarcely demand enough to keep
supplied the establishments now in
operation, little more than half the pro-
ducing force in the country,
The most hopeful sign noted this
week was that the failures reported to
Dun continue compsrately few and not
very important They have been 23G
In the United States, against 469 last
year, and "A in Canada against "a last
year. The aggregate Of liabilities for
the twelve days ended July 10 was only
$1,63O. 300.
1t is evident to the Philadelphia
Stakeholder from the statement Of
shipments Of anthracite coal (approxi-
mated) for the week ended July II, as
prepared by the Bureau of Anthracite
Coal statistics, that little effort was
made during that week to restrict the
output. as each of the regions report
an increase, the Wyoming leading,
with "a, 242 tons. The aggregate in
crease WAS 160, 996 tons, the total being
9S5, 097 tons, against Sl5 III tons for
the corresponding week last year. In
the preceding week. however, ship
ments were only 627, 500 tons, de-
crease over the same week last year Of
q, S9l ; so that the total for the month
to July IA amounts to 1,612,70G
tons, or I'm average of 115 1919
tons per day. In case the same aver
age Is maintained throughout the
month the shipment5 for July will
amount to 3, III. 1863, which is in excess
of the output decided upon by the sales
agents. The various companies are,
however, now restricting the output,
beginning with this week, so that there
is every reason to believe that the July
allotment will he confined to the figures
decided upon-3, 100000 tons. Includ'
ing the increase for the week ended
July IA, the shipments for the year to
that date foot up grand total Of 20,
764 1874 tons, against 90, $50, S19 tons for
the same period last year. II decrease OF
1.S10,6S5 tons. The full statement is

ANNOYED BY TRAmPs.
Took Coal From Passing Trains and In
Inundated Passengers.

Took Coal From Passing Trains and In
undated Passengers.
CANTON, Ohio, Feb. 1e.-All winter
long crews on freight and passenger
trains on the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne
and Chicago railroad have been in fear
Of their lives and the safety of their
trains and of merchandise ana pas
sengers carried by reason of the scores
Of vicious tramps who made their rem
devious at Stark Siding, two miles east
of Canton.
Bad at all times, two months ago the
tramps became holder and exceedingly
troublesome. The arrest of twenty of
them, after a hot skirmish with a SQUAD
of local policemen, In which several of
the Migrants were wounded, had for
time salutary effect. The cessation
of hostilities was brief. In the past
few weeks the tramps have soiourned
at Stark Siding in increasing numbers,
and with minds made devllish from
hunger and desperation. Great fires
have been kept burning day and night
In the held not far from the railroad
tracks. At first the Migrants depended
largely upon adjoining fences, dead
trees, discarded railroad ties and the
scraps of wood that can be found in
such abundance In wooded country.
Soon this source of supply became ex-
hausted. Coal had to be resorted to,
and 1t came from the supply on passing
trains. Upon the stopping of freight
for water or fuel a score of the tramps
would board the cars and throw Off
sufficient to keep a number of fires
going. When the thirty were arrested
on the charge of vagrancy, peniten-
tiary offeuse In Ohio, pile of coal was
burning that would last at least two
weeks

has forsaken appearance, for its days
of prosperity are numbered. 1t was
for thirty years stopping place for
teamsters hauling lumber from the
mountains, but the fume will bring the
lumber down hereafter and the teams
will never return.
When the iume has passed Toll House
it has entered the foot hills, and the
excitement is over. The way leads for
twenty miles down a narrow valley,
and the passengers In the boat have
nothing to alarm them, as they glide
along so peacefully and smoothly that
If they shut their eyes they would prob
ably fall asleep The speed grows less
and less as the plains are approached,
and now and then little vineyard or
an orange orchard is seen, standing In
pleasing contrast with the ice and
winter coldness of the mountains, now
4 900 feet above. From the foot of the
the hills the distance to the terminus
of the hume at Clovis is about twelve
miles, and the speed lessons all the
time. Before the end is reached the
fume boat passes over fine vineyards,
in which, even so late in the season as
December, large quantities of grapes
load the vines.
The end came at last, and so slowly
was the little boat moving that the
touch of hand was sufficient to bring
it to stop, and the romantic ride of SO
miles was done. 1t had occupied six
hours, and the boat in that time had
carried its passengers from region of
winter, with its ice and snow, into
country where grapes still loaded the
vines.

Pitsble Plight of tho Negro Dupes of
Charles Porter Grove.
HELENA, Mont, Feb. 12--If reports
received from Radersburg are correct,
and there Is no doubt of their truthful
ness, Charles Porter Grove, president
Of the Montana and Illinois Gold Min
Ing Company, should be brought up with
a sharp turn. Among the guests at the
Hotel Helena is A. Wilson of RAIDERS
burg. He was endeavoring to get sup
plies for eleven colored dupes whom
Grove located on his mining claims near
Radersburg last fall. Wilson Is one of
the best known citizens of that part of
Jefferson county and is himself inter
ested In mining. Just before he started
for Helena prospector named Richard
son, who had been to Grove City, as
Porter Grove calls the place where his
shanties are located, called on him and
told him something must be done for
those eleven men at Grove City or they
would starve to death.
According to Richardson's report the
men have scarcely anything to eat, and,
to make matters worse, they have no
warm winter clothing. They are living
ur in the hills, seven miles from Raiders
burg, all In one shack not fit for AMI
mails. There is no floor In the shanty,
there are no beds and the men came to
Montana so poorly prepared for winter
that they fear to 60 out into the hills
for fuel, as they run great danger of
freezing to death. The secretary of the
company, DR.. Arthur, is supposed to
have made arrangements with stores at
Radersburg to supply the men with food.
A month ago he promised to be in Ra-
dersburg and arrange financial matters,
this he has not done, and merchants
refuse further credit to the men on the
comPany's account. Grove himself
could not get package of tacks on
credit In Radersburg.

A Kansas Town Excited Over the Seventh
IN = Month.
PIrrsBuRe, Kan, Feb. 12-There Is
burg now and Saturday night seems to
he fatal one. The seventh murder In
this immediate vicinity during the
mouths of January and February was
committed last night, another woman
being the last victim. An old French
woman named Alliston was arrested
recently on charge of drunkenness
and after several days confinement was
discharged. She promited to reform,
but instead went directly to saloon In
the northeast part of the city, kept by
Frenchman named Edward Tonsantz
and there the murder was committed.
This morning an ore hauler saw body
lying In hollow by the Missouri Pacific
tracks and aroused the people and sent
for the city authorities.
Deputy United States Marshal Mapes
and Marshal Lemaster wen. to the scene
and there found the body of the old
woman lying In the snow, terribly beat
en- and dead. The snow plainly showed
tracks and they led to Tosantz's house
and en- route the officers found place
where the murderer had laid his burden
down and gone to pond, breaking the
Ice thereon with the evident intention
of concealing the body, which he did
not carry out, as he again picked her
up and carried her quite distance fur
Their.
Tonsantz and his wife and 14-year-old
boy are in jail charged with the crime.
They will say nothing whatever con-
corning the deed. Feeling is running
high, the numerous murders having
aroused the citizens to an extent that
there is strong talk of an example being
made of some one. The entire regular
police force and all the specials sworn
in at the time of the Chapman murder
are on duty with view to preventing
lynching
