Iron and steel Trade.

can Manufacturer, in its edition to-day.
says concerning the iron and steel trade:
Our market report this week shows
but little change in the situation At
all points the good signs continue, but
nowhere has there been any remarkable
increase in business. In the eastern
market the expected improvement has
hardly been realized, while throughout
the west the improvements irr gu a. Pig
iron sales generally all increasing, al
though the G icago market this week is
less active than it was three weeks since
Even in that market, orders taken for
delivery during the entire year are abo, t
81 % above present current rates. At
Wheeling, Cincinnati and Cleveland, the
consumption of pig iron is increasing
and in the New York market prices of
pig iron are increasing In many cases
deferred shipments are being called for.
At some points manufactured iron is in
better demand, and the output is in
creasing. Iron and steel bars are advan-
cling, and structural material is firm.

SECRETARY MORTON in his report says
that the seeds distributed gratuitously
by the government during the present
fiscal year weighed $50 tons and occu-
pied thirty mail cars in transit. The
cost of carrying them through the mails
was over $4,000. Enough seed was
sent out gratuitously to plant lis square
miles of garden. Each congressman
received enough to plant 1639 acres.
For the current year, at present prices,
the amount required by congress to be
expended i'll the purchase of seed will
make each congressman quota double
what it was last. The Secretary calls
this unnecessary and wssteful expendi-
ture of public money and hopes that
congress may in good time put stop
thereto.

The status of the next house on free
coinage is somewhat different from the
way it stands on party lines. With the
returns all in there are 2O4 Republicans,
13S Democrats and 10 Populists. OF the
Republicans FIVE are for free silver-Bro
derrick and Curtis, of Kansas; Beach, of
Ohio; Hilborn, of California, and Lin
ney, of North Carolina. OF the Demo
Gratis two-Elliot, of South Carolina,
and McAleer, of Pennsy said
to be for gold. AS respects the currency
the votes are accordingly thus divided:
For gold, 202; for silver and gold bimet-
aIIism, 156; making the majority for
gold, AZ. In the present house the fig
ures are: Republicans, 252; Democrats,
80; Populists, 10; vacancies, 8. There
is a Democratic gain in the coming
house of very decided character. On
the silver question the Republicans had
a majority of 1872 on the elections of
1894, which was reduced to 45 at the
late election.

San Francisco, November 2l.-Fol-
lowing closely upon the details of the
masscre of Baron Won Norbeck and the
party of scientists from the Austrian
guardship Albatross by natives of the
famous Colony group of islands comes

Titus made search for a party of gold
hunters, six whites and five natives, who
started in a whaleboat for the new gold
fields at Moubara from Samouria. The
officers of the Titus report that it IS
their opinion the first party of whites
were msssacred at Bourgainville by the
head hunters, or on the coast directly
across the straits.
Captain Gates, of the revenue cutter
Lilly Rock. which was always cruising
on a search for the party, says that be-
yond a shadow of doubt the gold hunt
ers had put ashore to pitch camp on the
beach, had been betrayed by their ma
tive guides, killed and probably eaten.

The public is not familiar with its
privileges about postal matters as might
be supposed. Many times people would
like to recall letter after it has been
mailed. This can be done, even if ithe
letter had reached the post office at its
destination. At every post office there
are what are called Withdrawal blanks"
On application they will be furnished,
and when a deposit is made to cover ex-
penses, the postmaster will telegraph to
the postmaster at the letters destination
asking that it be promptly returned.
The applicant first signs this agreement:
''It is hereby agreed that, if the letter is
returned to me, l will protect you from
any and all claims made against you for
such return and will fully indemnify
you for any loss you may sustain by rea-
son of such action. Aud | herewith de-
posit $-to cover all expenses incurred,
and will deliver to you the envelope of
the letter returned"
In many cases persons have made re-
mittances to fraudulent parties or frre-
sponsible firms, not learning their true
character until after the letter had gone.
and have succeeded in recalling them.
There is an instance where a Kansas
City merchant had remitted a dishonest
aveling man draft for $175, and by
means of a withdrawal rescued the draft
just in time

May Mitigate the Indian FAMINE.

London, November 21.-A dispatch
from Allahabad, India, reports that half
of the Madras coast districts have been
benefited ma erially by rain in the past
few days, while storm sweeping up the
Bombay coast has given a steady fall in
the Poena district. More is expected in
land as the storm advances over Kathia-
war, the meteorologist stating that the
fall may extend to Central India.
This will give moisture to many of the
drought districts.
The news from India, however,
has had little effect upon the grain mark
cts; the general impression is that the
insufficient rain will not affect the crops
and in any case it will not mate
rally change the famine outlook.

stable to go away. The latter drew his

THE Republican leaders indicate that
:hey are rapidly drifting away from the
conspicuous, the leading issue of the
campaign and that if they can secure
tariff revision-which to them means
tariff increase-they will be content.
They affect to believe-accepting Sena-
ator Sherman as their authority-that
all that is needed is sufficient revenue"
and that the best way to get that is first
by the DINGHY bill and then by some
harsher process, however outrageous
with a new congress.
"The beginning of everything" de
clared in big type by one of the Mark
Hanna organs of New York, "is more
revenue" Warming to its protection
work it reached this conclusion and gave
this advice: ''Let us have nothing. now,
but more customs" That seems to be
the outcry all along the line, revenue
being the disguise for higher tariff.
OF course the financial situation can
not be settled in this way. A high tar
iff may lead to a "boom" of course, but
;fter that boom must come a most
dreadful collapse. Simply taxing the
people and collecting the taxes isn't
currency reform; Nor is it stateman-
ship. 1t isn't meeting the demands OF
the people. 1t isn't meeting with cour-
age, patriotism and good sense the needs
of the hour. 1t is simply politics and OF
a very pooor quality.
The Republicans-this fact is not q
guess-mean to do nothing the next -four
years but exert themselves to retain pow,
er four years more.

President Burns Refused, But the Work
Did So Independently

Did So Independently
PITTSBURG, Nov. 25.-Every window
glass factory in the country Will start
blowing glass at last years prices and
rules on the evening of Dec. IL This is
the result of the wage conference held
yesterday.
The scale settlement was not without
its peculiarities. In the first place the
president of the Windowglass Workers
association disapprOves OF the settle
ment to such an extent that he failed to
sign the agreement, leaving the Monon-
gahela House while that was in prog
reSS.
He is ex-officio member of the com
mittee. The vote 70 accept the seal,
was unanimous among the workers,
and the manufacturers placed no STUN
bling blocks in their way.
The scale under which she workers
will resume is liable to rev sion during
the year. If the Dingley bill becomes
a law, which would advance the tariff
on window glass 10 per cent, the work
ers will receive the advance of 10 per
cent for single strength blowers and
gatherers, and D per cent for double
strength blowers and gatherers, as
asked for by the workers.
If tariff bill is passed increasing
the tariff on window glass, the manu-
facturers viii cDncede n further advanC e
and the new wage scale Will be formu-

FIVE thousand miners in the Column
bus district, in Ohio, have refused to
abide by the cut in wages and are idle as
a result. OF course this is the good
times promised by Mark Hanna after
McKinleys election. The miners were
getting 81 cents ton previous to the
election, and now they are cut down to
45 cents. 1t looks as though the poor
miner was to pay his share of the cam
paigu fund subscribed by the trusts to
ensure McKinley's election.
