IRON AND STEEL INDUSTRY,
1t Is Not believed That n Strong Re-
NiNnl IL In Pragress


CLEVELAND, Ohio, September lathe
Iron Trade Review this week says:
1t has been evident in the past ten days
that the price of production in iron and steel
is in advance of current demand. The TN
certain factor in the problem of prices is
the extent of the accumulated orders that
have supported the operations of furnaces,
steel works and iron mills for a month or
more. New demand, since the passage of
the tariff bill. has not aggregated enough
nor has it been of the character to warrant
the belief that a strong revival is in prog
ress. With a producing capacity in iron
and steel, built and gagged for prosperity, it
must not be expected that there will be an
immediate expansion of buying from the
shrunken volume Of q year of depression to
volume that Will fill all the wrinked folds
OF furnace, converting and rolling plants. If
Is generally conceded that the output of
most mills in the past month will exceed
three-fourths of the average rate in the
first half of '93.

the session of the Brotherhood OF Locono-
tive Ftremen at Harrisburg. Pa. yesterday
afternoon in defense of his course as an
officer Of the organization and editor Of its
official organ He challenged any one pres
ent to meet any statement he had made.
No one responded.
His reasons for resigning the two posi-

fact that he was no longer in sympathy
with the policy which divides into innumer-
able sections the employees OF the various
railway corporations of the country"
He said he believed in the uniicatinn Of
all classes OF railway employees in order 10

QUEEN OF THE SEA.
The Lucnnin Earns the Title by Her

The Lucnnia Earns the Title by Her
Latest Performance.
LONDON. September 1.-THE remarka-
BILE performance of theCunard line steamer
Lucania. which arrived at Queenstown
from New York at 3:47 this morning, has
created considerable excitement in shipping
circles, and is matter of public comment.
The Lucania's Gaily runsy were AL, 512,
4oi, Ola, JOG and 1891, making a total of
2,elo Knots, her average speed being I.s4
knots. n 4
singular feature OF tho trip Is the fact
that the LuCania's records for both the
eastward and westward voyages are identi-
ca'y the same. namely. Eve days, eight
hours and thirty-eight minutes, but on the
present eastward trip she covered dis
lance OF % miles more than she did on
her record-breaking trip hast month.
Inc Lucania by her present performance
hrmy established her position as Queen
or the Sea, having crossed the ocean in
both directions in less time than any other
steamer.
She holds the highest average hourly
speed record, 21.S9 knots, made in June
last, and her $50 knots covered in one day
In October, 1888, is still the record for the
longest days run.
The probabilities are that there will be
no more record breaking this year, as Sep
TENDER gales are about due.

A Beautiful Tariff Picture.

The Wilson bill is q Joy forever to
the rice-growers Of the South. says the
Ohio State Journal. 1t protects them
with q vengeance. In Fact the whole
spirit Of the MEASURE, In SO far rs it
has any protective feature at all, is for
the benefit OF the few industries of
which the South can boast. The whole
protective theory, in the minds of the
builders of the Wilson bill, is uncon-
stitutional and utterly wicked, but its
unutterable badness is only shown, ac-
cording to the same able opinion, in
the industries of the North. The
Northern farmer must pay a duty on
the hoops of his pork barrel. but the
cotton ties used by the Southern plant
er must be free. The Louisiana sugar
growers are to be protected by the
bounty, II the beet and sorghum rails
ers Of the West are not encouraged"
too much by the came law.
The tariff thinkers are very solicitous
for the indu ,tries Of the South, but
those of the North are to be protected
with an AK. The duty imposed on rice
by the Wilson bill furnishes q case in
point, as it is given marked protection
over every other growth OF field or
farm. The following table gives q
comparative schedule that will be of
interest:

One Of the most remarkable things
ever introduced in court as evidence
was an ordinary white blotter. 1t hap
pencd in Norman, s. D., where a man
was being tried for murder. The point
the pros cution thought to prove was
that the man had been in q certain hotel
at that place on a certain day. 1t 80
happened that the prosecuting attorney
had v .sited the hotel on the day the
crime had been perpetrated, and that,
too, shortly after it's commiss on. In
discussing the matter W tn the clerk the
suspected mans name was mentioned,
and the clerk then stated that he had
just left the writing-room. With de-
tective sagacity the attorney visited
the room and found this blotter, wi h
the name and date on it. Though sadly
blurred and inverted, experts were
called aud the writing was proved to be
that Of the prisoner. The effect OF this
was simply 70 destroy the defense's ef-
tort to prove an slibi, which point being
kDocked out the criminal was convicted.
