The story is recalled of a young Viz.

The little old man smiled at this anF

concerning the "Autoorst" that she net

CONDITION OF THE IRON TRADE.

CLEVELAND. OHIO, January 3.-The
Iron Trade Review this week VIII say:
What is or is not done in iron and
steel in the last week OF an old year
and the first week of 3 new one does
not signify so much IS the indications
as TO future business that are at such
times most closely scanned. There may
be more OF hope than Of prophecy In
the general con Gdenco expressed that
the new year is TO be one o! enlarged
demaD1: but the old reason for this be-
lief still holds good, as most frequently
applied to the railroads: That as
imperative requirements have not
been met vet, they soon must be.
Ii is nowhere believed that the railroads
can go through another year with pur-
chases OF three quarters OF million
tons OF rails for both new mileage ana
renewals. yet the immediate develop
mepts as to rail contracts are 70 more
promising than a month ago.
In active business through the holl-
day week the East appears to lead,
with Chicago and the Central West
ouiet I'm most lines. At Philadelphia,
Inquiries received both in raw and hnish-
cd materials indicate that January will
exceed expectations. Eastern furnaces
are holding prices steadily and have ac-
cvmulated little stock. The November
increase in coke iron stocks IN Western
PENNSYLVANIA and Eastern Ohio furnace
wards are responsible for the weakness
evidenced 10 those sections the past
fortnight. with Bessemer still selling at
$40 OO@lO Is at Pittsburg, admittedly
cost for some furnaces.
Structural Developments In Eastern
clsiss. particularly New York aud Bos-
,ou, have bsen encouraging, ana mllls
west Of the Alleghanies are not likely 20
stand too stiffly on prizes Whsn the work
is given cut.
Rar iron men east of the mountains
are getting together TO stop the eilini-
nation of extras, and to put the trade
on better footinR-something the
Western manufacturers have been una
ME vet to start to accomplish.

In regard to the stormy and almost un-
precedented scene in the Sobrsuje, or
National Assembly at Sophia. During
the debate on the credit OF 5O,-
600 francs asked for by the
government for the purpose OF suppress
ing brigandage, NJ. Dosod, the opposi-
tion leader, declared that brigandage no
longer existed in Bulgaria, and that the
Premier, NJ. Stoiloff. asked for this
money for the purpose OF establishing
system of political espionage. An up
roar followed, the supporters OF the
government strongly denouncing
the assertion OF the oppo-
ston leader and NJ. Dosoh
rep wing with strong expressions re-
fectinI upon the Ministers. This caused
NJ. Stoiloff to exclaim: you are liar

Dr Theodorotf. announced NJ. Dossoh's
sxnnlsion from the chamber for the re-

with the members OF the opposition

not until some of the Deputies had
drawn revolvers.
Dnring this exciting scene the Minis

possession OF the House
After an hours interval, the sitting
was resumed at midnight. The opposl-
ton protested against the action OF the
Government declaring that the scene
was caused by NJ. Stoiloh calling M.

the oppositlou left the House in body

PITTsBURG, PA. January 2.-The
strike at the Homestead steel works
has been about settled by the Carnegie
Steel Company agreeing to pay the en-
Dloyes of the 119.inch mill, the
only department on strike, at the
rate of ST. 10 per ton, by which they can
make ST. so per day. The men claimed
that under the scale previously offered
they could not make mors than 60 cents
per day 1t is probable that the men
wifi accept the uew terms and go 10
work tonight.
One of the furnaces at the Edgar
Thomson steel works at Braddock, an
other Carnegie mill, was started to-day
by employees from other departments.
There has been no deserter among the
strikers yet.
PITTsBURG. PA, January "A long
and stormy meeting OF the strikers az
the Edgar Thomson steel works at
Braddook was held this afternoon, dur
ing which several OF the strikers were
elected for disorderliness and utterlng
TOO RADICAL STATEMENTS.
A committe was finally appointed to
confer with Superintendent GayleV
with a view to compromise. The
committees were closeted with Superin-
tendent Gayey for over two hours but
failed to obtain a concession from the
terms offered by the company. Mr..
Gayley said that the men would be
given until Sunday 10 accept the scale,
and that in case of their refusal TO ac-
cept, new men would be put in their
places at once. This committee will
meet the men tonight and the situation
will be considered.
A later dispatch says:
The trouble at Homestead Is not end
ed, Notwithstanding the temporary
compromise In the 119-inch mill an
nounced to-day. The temporary settle
ment was effected by the company
agreeing to allow the men 1l0 tons
dsy, whether that amount was
worked or not. Tonight the men
are inclined to kick over the traces be-
cause, by agreement, they would get
pay for only 10 tons even II 1l5 we're
turDed out, and it is a question wnetner
the night crew will accept the compro-
mise, which gives the shearsmen's help
ers Sl.6O day, whereas formerly they
earned between 81 and S..
ASIDE FROM THE TROUBLE
in the l19-inch mill, number OF the
others are shut down because, the men
say, not enough signatures TO the scale
nave been secured. Superintendent
Schwab, however, says enough men have
signed to start all OF the mills. How
ever this IN ay be, certain it is that the
33-inch, the 35-inch, and the 37-inch
mills are all down. The workers say
none OF the 33-inch men have signed,
aud only limited number in the 9TH
erS.
At Braddock, where the ore handlers
are on strike, meeting was held to-
night by the men aud the committee
which conferred with Superintendent
tiayley. The company's ultimatum was
made known, and out Of 400 men pres
ent, only six voted to accept IT.
To anticipate possible trouble to-
night, should the company attempt to
start any furnaces, the borough police
force has been augmented by twenty
extras.

Senator Hill Attends a Dinner at the

As A GUEST OF THE PRESIDENT.
There Had Been Rumors that the
New York Senior Senator and
Grover Had Come to an Under
standing and this Conflrmatory
Evidence Seems to Bear Them
Out-Senator Hill Refuses to
Discuss the Matter.

WASHINGTON, D. c., January g.
When the list of names of guests at the
Presidents dinner to the cabinet was
given, the appearance among them of
that of Senator Hill, OF New York, was
received with some ncredulity. Thera
had been no intimation that the
New York Senator was to be present,
and when it became known about town
that Mr. Hill was the guest of the Pres
ident the fact was at once the subject
of the greatest speculation. There had
been rumors that an understanding had
been reached between
THE PRESIDENT AND sIR. HILL,
but the presence OF the latter at the
White House tonight was the first
tangible evidence that the rumors were
probably authentic. But once during
this administration has Mr.. Hill
before been within the por-
tails of the executive mansion.
mat time was Just a1ter the
arrival of Senator Murphy and the two
New York Senators appeared at the
White House together, but the best in
formation is that they did not see the
President at that time.
The President and Mr.. Hill met in
general assemblage before the dinner
began. and their meeting was to every
appearance one of extreme cOrdiality.
They remained together for some
MINUTES IN CLOSE CONVERSATION.
Mr.. Hill escorted Mrs. Hearst to the
dining-hall. Senator Hill tonight
declined to discuss his presence at
the White House, saying that it
was purely social visit, and had
no political significance and conse-
ouently he did not feel at liberty to
talk on the subject. Nevertheless his
attendance will be mark for political
gossip for some days TO come.
1t is understood that Mr.. Hill was In
vited To the last Cabinet dinner, bnt de-
clined.

TO CORRECT THE TARIFF BILL.

Amendments Preparing in the Senate to
Make the Measure More Effective.
WASHINGTON, d. c., January 3.-A
movement was begun in the Senate to-
day looking to the amendment OF toe
urgency deficiency bill, which has not
vet been reported from committee. by
adding several amendments looking to
the Improvement OF the present tariff
law and especially to the correction OF
errors which were allowed TO creep INTO
the law, many of which would have been
corrected but for the manner In which
the bill was passed through the House.
Among the amendments proposed Is
one for the abolitation Of the one-tenth
additional diifereDtial duty placed on
supar i'm ported from countries paying
bounty. and for the correction OF the
error made 10 regard TO the tax on
alchol used in the arts, and third re-
Heving corporations OF the provision OF
income tax law requiring that they
shall furnish lists OF their employees TO
whom salaries of less than $4,000 are
paid.
THE DEMOCRATIC LEADERS
are especially anxious that the two
amendments first mentioned should be
enacted into law during the present ses-
sion. II was the purpose OF the Demo
cratic members OF the Finance Commit
tee 10 have dropped the oDe-tenth addl-
t,onal discriminating duty on sugar
from tho tariff bill In conference but the
acceptance OF that measure oy the
House prevented this. The action OF the
European countries 10 which the DUTY
aprlles in excluding American meats
has had the effect OF causing this change
IN apuear still more important than IL
did before the Dill became law, and
the Democratic leaders WSHld feel es-
necially gratfed II ie could be ac'
romnlished. The duty OF preparing
these amendments has deyolved upon
senator Jones. of Arkansas, but. n is
understood that they will not be pre-
sented unless there appears little DOUBT
NJ their acceptance by the Senate. Con-
saonently Mr.. Jones and other Demo-
cratic Senators are caDvsssing ooto
sides of the chamber for the purpose OF
6et,ing at the sentiment II they be
come convinced that the amendments
can be agreed TO they will be introduced
within the next three days.
They saw. however, that II it becomes
evident that the Republicans will make
a fght on them, they will not present
them At all. as with only two months OF
tba Congress left their passage couiu
no prsvent.d and the appropriation
bills would DO inperiled to no purpose.
