that the verdict was a just and a right

capital punishment, it was his painful
duty to pass sentence according to law.

o'clock tonight says when he left at
o'clock only four men had been brought

over these, in the hope of resuscitating 2
them, but with small chances of success.
The other miners in the mine were GER

up for lost. the shaft machinery being
on fire, hindered the work of the rescue.
Most of the men live at Rat Portage, and
there Is great excitement, and the only

VESSEL MUST BE sEAwoRTHY.

Liability of Carrier for Loss by De-
lay In shipment of Merchandise.
WASHINGTON, March II. The Su-
preme Court OF the United States to-day
decided the case OF James Henderson
ct al, the owners of the steamer Gale
donia, VS.. Mayer Goldsmith, involv-
ing the question of liability of a carrier
for loss by delay in the shipment of mer-
chandise. The case was appealed by the
owners OF the vessel from the decision of
the Circuit Court for the Massachusetts,
district, which held them responsible for
loss caused by delay in the shipment of
cattle The defense in the original case
was that the delay was occasiOned by the
breaking of the vessels shaft. The court
held, however, that the exception was not
sufficiently specific, and sustained the de-
cision OF the court below. A vessel. said
Chief Justice Fuller, in delivering the
opinion, must be really seaworthy; it was
not sufficient that its owners should think
It was seaWorthy. Justices Brown,
Harlan and Brewer dissented.

IRON ORE PRICES.

The greater part Of this seasons out
put OF iron ore from the mines Of the
Lake Superior region was sold in adj
vance last spring at prices averaging
barely above last years unprecedenuy
low figures. In view Of this fact the
voluntary Increase in wages by the
Cleveland-Cli6s Iron Mining Company
is one OF the interesting incidents Of
the far-reaching trade revival
The iron ore mine operators are in
the unpleasant condition Of being under
contract to sell their product through
out this season at prices that yield lit
tie il any profit, while the iron manu-
facturers who consume the ore are
prohting by each advance in the prices
of iron and steel products.
IL is intimated. however, that the
iron ore people intend to take their
turn next year with an advance in
prices that will make up for the loss Of
the present opportunity and give the
iron manufacturers something start
ling to think about.

rNpoRrs or 1RoN AID STEEL.

The exports Of iron and steel from the
United States during the eleven months
ended May 81. including farm imple-
ments. amounted in value to S34OS9,475,
against $S1. 745. 16S in the corresponding
period of the preceding fiscal year. As
the Philadelphia Record points out, this
gratifying growth in the exports Of iron
and steel products has been made IN
spite OF adverse conditions Of foreign
trade. But with the general revival OF
trade the signs of a great increase in
these exports are abundant During
MAY. 1895. they amounted in value to
50. 265. $50. indicating a total Of nearly
$4,000, 900 for the next year, even If
there should be no gain upon the trade
for May
Among these exports of iron and steel
manufactures in the last eleven months
were no less than 246 locomotive engines
costing $4,000 each. The fact that
American manufacturers are able to
outstrip foreign rivals in the neutral
markets with these exports is in itself
an eloquent tribute to their enterprise
and to the superior skill and intelli-
eence of their workingmen. 1t refutes,
TOO. the miserable cry of "pauper labor
by showing that these products Of Ameri-
can industry are probably exported, not
outstanding that the labor employed
upon them receives the highest wages
going in the world. Besides the loco
motive engines that were sent from
American workshops to nearly all quar-
tiers Of the globe, there is an increased
expectation Of machinery, saws
and tools, firearms and other
highly finished products of iron
and steel. American bar iron and
steel ingots are also going out to for
eign markets in increasing quantities.
Gratifying as was the recent testi-
mony Of the Bulletin Of the Iron and
Steel Association TO the prosperity of
these industries and under the genial
influence OF the new tariff, such testi-
mony was not needed The evidence
= not only in the growth of the foreign
trade. but all around us in the increased
domestic demand for all products of iron
and steel at rising prices. The only re-
naming import of this class is tinplate,
which comprises more than half of the
entire importations of iron and steel
manufactures. Yet the journals spe-
cially devoted to these interests are con-
strained to acknowledge its marvellous
growth since the new tariff went into
operation. Thus the American Manu-
says that great as has been tho
increase of domestic production of tin
plate. it promises to be still greater"
The new tariff, whilst leaving ample
protection to tinplate has immensely
benefited the industry by repeating the
stupid duty of four cents a pound on pig
Tin. Considerable quantities OF Ameri-
can tinplate are now exported in cans
containing meats. fish, vegetables and
fruits.
Yet this is one Of the industries that
the new tariff doomed to destruction, ac-
cording to the bowling OF the panic
mongers.
