OF THE IRON TRADE.
Much Speculation Concerning the Out

look for N xt Year.
cleveland, O.. Nov. 1.-The Iron Trade
Peview says to-day: The iron trade has
come to a date at which calculations usu-
ally begin 10 be made reaching into a new
wear. There is much expectancy and
more prophesying relative to 1895, but a
practical unanimity in the opinion that if
anv decided change in conditions is to
cone in the next twelve months no signs
Of it have yet developed. In the Lake Su-
perlor ore trade another year
record is soon to be closed,
with shipments likely TO run
closer to 100000 tons than was counted on
early in the season. The outlook for Besse-
r0er ores was never more promising and
for non-B n-Bessemer's the demand is at the
lowest point n years. p 6 ir, n producers
are finding at the end Of October a less
encouraging situation in some respects
than at the opening of the month. The
close of a year is always attended with
come accumulation Of iron. howe er, and
there is no surpris at indications here and
there of slightly nor a ing stocks, though
this is less Eoticeabls in tte case of Besse-
rner pig. Southern furnace men have been
keeping out of the central western field
for the most part but a few weaker pro-
foundry and forge. Raw and finished ma
terial have so long been scraping on the
bottom that it is deemed encouraging TO
have buyers somewhat less disposed 20
crowd them further. In the east a moder-
ate buying movement resulted in the past
ten days. Alabama iron also sold to some
extent in Philadelphia at 10 ex-ship.
In the Chicago market southern iron
has Jared a little better as to tonnage,
but such prices were made as would get
business. The ability of the further
western railroads to borrow money for
peequpment and retracking is not spe-
cially encouraging to steel mills in that
section that have carried long overdue
hopes of a railroad revival The belief
that another week will effectually settle
abe question of confidence, so far as the
election can do it, may be the explanation
Of some of the waiting in finished mate
rial lines the fact of the falling oft is
more generally conceded, at all events.
Western bar mill men did not get to-
Eether as planned. owing to the failure
10 enlist important Ohio mills, and there
is no outlook for q better basis for that
business by such a method. Wire nail men
have been working iQdustriously on com
bination, but one or two unwilling pro
ducers stand in the way. The tin plate
mill deadlock is getting tiresome to some
OF the manufacturers, and there is stronz
talk Of a start regardless of the scale, at
two plants near Pittsburg."

DROPPED IN A BOX OF CAPS
James and George Lipp Fatally Man.
gled by an Accident in Gala
veras County.

MOKELU-1NE HILL. Oct 15.-One of the
most shocking accidents which happened
in this vicinity occurred between II and
II o'clock to-day with possibly fatal
results. Two young man. named James
and George Lipp. aged 10 and II years
respectively, were horribly mutiated by
the explosion of box Of giant powder
CAPS. They want to the Moser mtne near
this place and on their return on a
road recently constructed to the mine dis
covered near the roadside box of giant
powder caps. a piece of fuse and about
half a dozen giant powder cartridges.
just how the accident occurred is not
yet known. However, a man named
HALEY Gold. saw two men coming down
the road locked arm in arm staggering
from one side Of the road to the other
and uttering fearful shrieks. He at first
thought them to be drunken men, but on
their nearer approach discovered the hor-
rible condition of the BOYS. He seated
them beneath tree and hurried to town
for assistance.
A conveyance Immediately started out
and brought them in, and DR.. Blaisdeil of
this town and DR.. Simmons of San An
dreas we're summoned. The condition of
the Young men was terrible IN the ex-
tIeme. The left hand of James was torn
to shreds. necessitating amputation at the
wrist, his eyesight destroyed, his head,
face and upper part of his body filled with
fragments of metal from cap shells and
the tin box in which the shells were con-
taned, while the brother, George, was
mangled about the head. losing one eye
and probably both. The first and second
fingers and thumb of the left hand of
james were found near the place still
holding half-burnt cigarette.
The presumption is that while examin-
ing the box spark fell among the caps
and caused the explosion while both young
men were inspecting them The full extent
of the injuries cannot yet be fully deter
mined
