To Man ufacture Door Knobs.

AT the meeting of the Business Mems
Association Tuesday evening Mr.. Jacob
Weatherwax exhibited model of his
patent door knob, and also that of little
machine to manufacture with. He ex-
planned its construction and gave some
figures regarding the cost of manufacture
The device consists Of an improved
method OF attaching the knob to the rod
that passes through the door, which is
done with spring instead of screw, as
in the one in common use. The knob
on the outside is fastened permanently,
the spring being OH the inside end only,
thus making it impossible to remove it
from the outside.
The figures given Of the cost Of material
entering into the construction, the esti-
mate for manufacturing and the prices
which can be obtained, showed hand
some margin. The annual consumption
for the Pacific coast is one and one-half
million. One large dealer in San Fran
cisco Offers to take quarter Of million,
and one in Chicago will take a full
million. This lock when once on the
market is bound to supercede all others.
The association were strongly in favor
of the organization Of stock company to
manufacture them here, and committee
was appointed, consisting of J. S. Gum,
Max Sanford and L. w. Herrick, to
thoroughly investigate and estimate as
to the cost Of production and to then pro-
coed to solicit subscriptions for a stock
company. Mr.. Weatherwax has an
opportunity to 60 to Spokane in the
spring and organize company there
with capital stock of $4,000 or more,
but prefers to remain here, whore his
other interests are, if possible. He
thinks that the above capitalization,
with 20 or 80 per cent. paid in, would be
sufficient. We hope everyone will do
what he can toward the establishment Of
this industry in Aberdeen.

| County immigration Convention.
BY reason of insufficient notice OF the
meeting at Montesano yesterday for the
purpose Of organizing a county immigra-
ton society, there were but few delegates
present, in fact, those from the business
Mems Association of this city were the
only ones outside OF Montesano present.
This delegation consisted OF L. l.. Koch
Ter, E. G. Finch, Max Sanford and James
+. Girton. A number OF the leading cit
liens Of Montesano met with them and
a temporary organization effected. James
+. Girton was made temporary chairman
and J. W. Divilbiss, secretary.
AS Mr.. Byles, Chehalis county's men,
Der of the state association, could not be
present, much to his regret, and explain
the plan Of the state association, the
delegates present were without basis
from which to act. 1t was therefore re.
solved to issue call for meeting to be
held later for the purpose Of effecting a
permanent organization, and a committee
was appointed, consisting Of E. G. Finch,
d. w. Fleet and E. H. Mullen, to act
with the temporary officers for the pur-
pose of apportioning the number Of dele
gates in the call among the precincts Of
the county, and to fix a time and place
Of meeting.
That committee met upon adjournment
Of the convention and apportioned from
three to fifteen delegates for the various
towns and precincts, making a total Of
about 1875 all told. A notice from the
secretary will be sent to some one in
each precinct, urging that he call pre-
cinct meeting for Saturday, February 20,
for the purpose Of electing delegates to
the convention which will be held one
week from next Tuesday, March 3, at
II o'clock q. M, at Montesano, when the
permanent organization will be COM
pleted.
Mr.. Thomas Maloney, Of Port Angeles,
was present and kindly gave an outline Of
the work in Clallam county. There the
organization consists of central associa-
ton with the usual officers and vice
president from every precinct. In every
precinct is local organization which &C.
lects the county vice president for that
precinct. Monthly meetings Of the county
organization are held, and quarterly
public meeting to which everybody is in
vited. Papers on various topics are read
and discussed, printed in the local news.
papers, and in pamphlet form. Much
interest has been aroused and rivalry ex
cited among the precinct organization to
see which could secure the largest and
best one. This plan had been in effect
some time before the state organization,
salaried representative havin. been
kept in st. Paul for three months, with
the result that in January parties from
that place came oat and bought $4,000
worth of property.

RECEIVERSHIP IMPENDS.
Louisville, New Albany & Chicago
Railroad is Threatened.

New York. Aug. 14-Regarding rum
ors of impending receivership for the
Louisville, New Albany &Chicago,
President Thompson of the company,
is of the opinion that the depression in
the company's securities is traceabIe
entirely to alarm over the recent de-
cisiOn of Judge Taft, removing the in
junction against the Beattyville rail-
road bondhoIders, which allows them
to again sue upon the alleged guaran-
tee of the Kentucky company's bond
by the Monon, although seventeen
such cases, in which actions have been
tried have been decided in favor of the
MOnon. The effect on quotations of
the securities, however, seems to Gen.
Thomas excessive and indiscriminate.

degrees and he expects the vessel will
eventually arrive at Spitzbergen. He
adds that wherever they penetrated
they found the ice broken. Large
patches of water were also found, g.
800 metres deep. Below the depth of
$50 metres the water was appreciably
warmer, probably owing to the gulf
stream Rocky scars of which the ex-
plorers had no previous knowledge
prevented entrance into the Lenek
river for days In consequence of the
scarcity of dogs with the expedition.

JAPANESE AMBITIOUS.
They Aspire to Excel All the World
in Building War Ships.

San Francisco, Aug. 1.-THE steam
ship Coptic brings news that the Japa-
nese are aspiring not only to catch up
with the leading nations of the world
in the manufacturing industries, out to
excel all the rest of the world in the
production of engines for naval war
fare. About the time the Coptic left
Yokohama, it was reported from good
sources in naval circles that plans had
been submitted to the admiralty for the
building of a flotilla of small gunboats
to develop the extraordinary speed of
40 knots an hour.
The vessels are to be driven and
lighted by electricity, two twin screw
propellers to be placed not right aft
but only a little abaft amidships The
boats are to be wholly or partially sub
merged and to make this process easy
they will be little more than mere hulls
