MINOR INDUSTRIAL NOTES:

MINOR INDUSTRIAL NOTES.
= An official of the Pennsylvania railroad
says there has been a decided increase in
freight business within the last two weeks
on that road, both east aud west. Altrge
amonnt OF coal and coke is being shipp-d
from the Connelsville region. aud 400
empty box cars have been ordered west
for eastern grain and live stock shipments
The traffic IL decidedly better than it was
a month ago, and will, it is thought, con-
tinue to increase.
A large steel manufacturer says that
steel rails last week ssd at the lowest
price on record.
The Susquehdnna and Western railroad
gas changed its fiscal year to June 30 from
Dec. 81, In order to comply with the inter
STAGE commerce act: consequently no an
nual report will be made this spring.
Passenger rates eastbouud from Chicago
are being clandestinely cut, and railroad
managers will meet Friday to brace them
| up.
Drexel, Morgan q Co. and J. S. Morgan
Il Co. announce that the Erie plan has
been declared operative, a majority Of each

bon than the product OF eastern Penn
sylvania. burns rather more rapidly.
and gives out a greater heat. This
coal is used exclusively by the Cana
dian Pacific railway for heating its
cars as far eastward as Lake Superior.
and it is sold for domestic purposes as
far eastward as Winnipeg.
AT Canmore, only ten miles distant
from the anthracite mine, is found an
| other kind OF coal, almost smokeless,
and possessing the quality of cooking
well. Wereit admitted in the markets
OF our states near it it's adaptibility to
smelling purposes and relative cheap
ness would drive out all competitors.
Coming eastward we find in the prairie
country Of the Canadian Northwest nm
other extensive coal deposit. The Galt
mines at Lethbridge yield good bit
luminous coal, well adapted to railway
uses, which, if the duty we're removed.
would be exported in large quaint
ties to the states lying immeGi-
ately to the south. 1t is estimated
" ~. b"hSOhi tuub bHo SoAl hloasuAob
stretching eastward from the Lsth-
bridge, along the American border, to
Manitoba, cover $1,000 square miles.
We may add that along the banks of
the Saskatchewan, in. the vicinity of
Edmonton, thick seams Of coal are visi-
Gle, and that servicsable domestic
coal is delivered at the place for 50 80
ton. To obtain free access to the
American market for the outpnt Of
these vast coal deposits. and for the
other natural products of the Dominion
there is no doubt that Canadians
would eventually consent to annexa
tion. 1t is the part of American pa
triots to give for nothing privilege
which ought to be sold for a great
price"

A bullet pierces my right thigh and lays
foundation for pension. lam necessarily
left on the side of the enemy, and the
slaughter goes on. Wistfully / look after
the retreating boys. All hope seems to be
lost, and the enemy to have gained the day.
At the foot of Round Top the enemy is held
in check.
The day closes. The rebel main line falls
back across the field, but leaves picket-line
between the writer and hope. Darkness
mercifully covers the scene, but lets loose
the agony of thousands whose mangled forms
lay bleeding on the CORY field. No pen can
picture the expressions of agony wrung from
the wounded strewn over holly contested
battlefield. Succor that night is out of the
question. Death comes to the relief of very
many. Stiffness prevails only with the
morning dawn. And, oh such dawn; the
dawn of another day of strife.
The history of the next day has been
written and rewritten. Suffice it to say the
14lst Pa. did not extensively participate in
the third days fight. The enemy retreated,
and the 141st Pa, of which the writer had
ceased to be an active member, followed on, a
sadly-depleted rank of only 55 men.-WM.
