NEWS OF OUR INDUSTRIES.
Happenings Of Interest to the staple
Trades aud Particularly to tho Trade
in Iron. Steel and Anthracite Coal.

The Columbus. O.. Street railway car
ried $4,000 more passengers last week
than In the corresponding week last
year.
1t Is said that manufacturers OF steel
billets may attempt to form an Organi-
zation having for its principal aim a
division of territory IN the United
States.
Five church cars are in constant use
on the Transsiberian railroad. The
Russian government operates them
through territory which averages less
than one inhabitant to the acre and
which could not support churches under
ordinary circumstances. The cars are
lifted up like orthodox Greek Churches
and hold services in seventy settle
ments week.
The higher prices for anthracite ofil-
c.ally announced last Thursday have
not as yet been followed by an official
announcement of similar action by the
New York companies and there Is no
evidence of a concerted movement to
raise prices. Nevertheless, 1t can be
stated that some of the anthracite
companies in New York have raised
their prices as high as 80 cents Il ton.
There is good authority" for saying
THAT some of the New York anthracite
companies have raised their prices as
high as 80 cents a ton lately, wish the
Lackawanna among those which re-
fused to sell coal except at their own
prices. The reason for this attitude
on their part is that coal is selling
much too low in view of the cost of
production, and that economic condi-
tions viii force buyers into paying
higher prices sooner or later.
There Is a veritable car famine in the
IA ~ loo
The running down of equipment owing
To the poor tonnage of the past two
years and the uneXampled prosperity y
of iron industries are responsible for
the famine. Even with the equipment
IN tine condition of two years ago there
would not be enough cars. The pros
pect. which Is now Il certainty, of an
unprecedented grain tonnage, made all
the roads put their grain equipment in
order first, and the demands of the
iron men have more than kept pace
with the ability of the roads to supply
them. The mill and furnace yards are
bare of stock. and their owners are
bounding the roads day and night to
give them enough material to keep run
ming. 1t is estimated there Is 1000, ,OOO
tons of iron ore in stock at the mines
Half OF this will be delivered at Lake
Erie ports before the close OF naviga-
ton, and 1t is now believed the roads
from Lake Erie cannot deliver it as fast
at the furnaces as 1t will be needed
THE demand will be SO large and the
profits SO great that the iron men must
ship thousands of cars by rail from
the mines to Pennsylvania. The fur.
naces are having as hard time getting
fuel as ore and could easily do so per
cent, more business if they could get
the material

HAZLETON DOWNED.
They We're showed Under By the Local
Aggregation.

notwithstanding the cold weather of
Saturday the largest crowd of the sea-
son gathered at Anthracite park to wit
ness the closing game of the season be-
tween Hazleton and CarbOndale. The
crowd was happy one, too. and hadn't
they right to be happy? The mighty
lHazleton team, the winners of the
pennant. What happened to them?
Both pitchers were batted freely and
eafe hits made galore. The HaZleton-
ians came first to the bat and the first
ball that was pitched resulted in a
three base hit. Then followed a two
bagger and safe hit, and when the
side was retired the Hazleton team had
three runs to their credit The spec
tators looked blue as the home team
came In to the bat. The result was,
indeed, dubious then. but before many
minutes had passed things had
changed. The ball was pounded all
over the field, costly errors made and
Carbondale retired with five runs.
Hazleton was blanked the next in
ming and Carbondale pushed one run
over the plate. Neither side scored
during the next three innings, and in
the sixth each scored a run. another
blank for Hazleton In the seventh and
two for Carbondale. This was the last
run scored by CarbOndale, but the Wis
itors were retired in the ninth with
one run wanting to tie the score.
The features of the game were the
heavy hitting and good fielding of the
home team. Patchen led the list with
two three-baggers and double, be-
side several base hits Staltz also made
. two. threeIbaggers, and Westlake sue
.ceeded In making one. Hazleton also
batted hard. but their errors and poor
running lost the game. The score by
! innings is as follows:
Hazleton ....3 0 0 0 / 2 p s
CarbOndale 8 1 0 0 2 g 9
