MURDER AND SUICIDE.
A Celestial YIELDS a MurderOus Knife
With Horrible Effect.


About II o'clock Tuesday night a
horrible tragedy occurred in China
town, which resulted in the death of
two natives of the "Flowery Kingdom"
1t seems it was case of jealousy and
there was a woman in the case "alle
same Mclean man." Young Gwong
was infatuated with Sou Dick, wife of
Tom Dick, and it is supposed that he
came to the conclusion rather than
live without her to take her life as well
as his own.
When the officers arrived on the
scene, after an alarm had been sounded
they found Gwong lying on the floor
breathing his last, with an ugly knife
still grasped in his right hand, and his
victim in an adjoining room covered
with ugly knife wounds. In u post
norton statement she said that she
and Young Gwong had just finished a
bowl Of soup and she told him to 90.
He refused and as she was about to
call her husband, Gwong assaulted her
with knife, inficting the wounds as
above stated.
There were no witnesses except the
woman, but it is supposed that after
stabbing the woman he plunged the
knife in his own person. There were
three wounds on his body, any one of
which would have proven fatal. The
woman lived until five o'clock the the
following morning and was unable to
give any account of the affair except a
few words as stated above. The three
Chinese were late arrivals and other
Cinnamon say they were the best of
friends. The coroner's jury brought in
a verdict in accordance with the above.

THE OUTPUT OF FIG IRON
Increases from 3, ,ss1 900 Tons i'm 1850 to
100000 at This Time.

In 1880 the iron makers of the United
States produced 3, 1Sl, 900 tons OF pig iron.
and as that was a gain of nearly 100 per
cent. over 1870 it was regarded as q rapid
growth. Our pig iron producers are now
turning out iron at the rate of nearly 10, =
O10.000 tons year, the actual increase
over 1899 being almost twice as great as
the total production in that year. Keep

against s369 000, 600 ten years Eg:o-c.
The United States is now the largest
manufacturing country OF the world. We
have far outstrippcd other nations in the
magnitude OF our industrial operations.
Notwithstanding the great decline in
prices the aggregate value of the manu-
factured product, OF the country in 1922
was over 20 pe- cent. greater than
in 1880. Should the aggregate gain be
only as great this decade as in the last,
81, 900, 000, 600, the year 1900 would give us
n total value OF manutactured pro.
ducts of over $4,000, 100000. Possibly
this is more than we shall reach, but til G

Times Great IN Value as the AgricuI-
tural-what We May BE Able to Show in
1910 in the Way of Population-A Few
Details with Dazzle.
CHICAGO, Jan. 2i-Mr Richard H Ed
monds, editor of The Manufacturers
Record, Baltimore, submitted to the con-
vention of the National Association of
Manufacturers yesterday letter covering
the wonderful industrial development Of
the United States in recent years and
suggesting that in view of the facts set
forth congress should be asked to create a
department of manufactures and COM
mcrce. In his letter Mr.. Edmonds points
out the fact that the total value Of the
manufactured products in the United
States is now nearly three times as great
as the total value of agricultural pro-
ducts. In 1899 the value OF manufactured
products was $3.50, ,oC0,OO0, while the
value Of agricultural products was IS, ,SO0,-
100000. In 1890 s6a, 500, 00u people lived
under the protection of the stars and
stripes.
Looks for 1OO, 600, 900 Inhabitants.
The rate of increase was 2i.S per cent.
During that decade we added to our pop
ulrtion L, 1000 people, or 3,300,0 900 more
than the combined population of every
city in the United States of more than
100, 0o0 population. Starting in 1850 with
! a population Of g. 10000 and increasing
at the rate of about % per cent. every ten
years, we will add during the present de-
cade nearly 100000 people to the
total of 1872 giving us by the year 1909 n
population of over 100000, and ten
years later or only fifteen years from tho
present time, we will round out with al
most 1c0, 600. 600 inhabitants in this coun-
try, or just double the population Of 1850.
Increase in Our Manufactures.
Nothing else, says Edmonds. { lis the
story of the marvellous progress OF this
| country between 1850 and 1890 so well as
| the statistics of our manufacturing and
mining interests. In the magnitude OF
| our manufactures We now lead the world.
In $50 the total capital invested in manu-
featuring in the United States was -, u.s.

| the census of 1890 showed total capital
of 1924, 415,00o, or IN other words the in
crease in capital invested in manufacture
ing between 1899 and 1890 was 81 900, ,000,-
coo more than the total manufacting capi-
tai of the country in 1850.
Number of Hands Employed.
