LEATHER TRUSTS WORK.
Eary Manufacturers of Cheap Shoes
Forced to Close.

New York. Oct. 5.-The manufacturers
of cheap shoes are having a hard time
just now to keep their heads above water.
In the last three weeks many of them
have been driven to the wall. It is said
that the situation is due in large part
to the sole leather trust.
George J. Axis shoe factory at Spring
Valley, which has been running for 20
years, has closed its doors. The employees,
on retu2 ming to the factory in the after
noon after eating their luncheOns, found
the doors locked. Mr.. Axis sign had
been taken down, and on the door was
posted notice signed by Folk & Fritz,
wholesale leather dealers of No. Al War
rem street, this city, stating that the serv-
ices of the fifty employees would not be
required again until further notice.
Charles Fritz of Folk & Fritz said yes
terday that his firm had been obliged to
foreclose mortgage they held on Mr..
Axis place. He owes us about 50, O0O,"
he said. when the price of leather went
up three or four weeks ago he couldn't
stand the strain. He found that he had
to pay about 10 per cent more for sole
leather than before. The United States
Leather company controls the sole leather
market of the country. This trust has
been putting up the price right along
lately. The price of sole leather has in
creased about Is per cent. The result
is that manufacturers of cheap shoes are
being forced to shut down. The price of
shoes has not advanced as yet. The re-
sult is that manufacturers are playing
losing game.
1.-The result of the trusts action in rails
ing the price on sole leather to such an
extent must be that there will be big
increase in the price of shoes sooner or
later.
Il would not be surprised to hear of a
good many shoe factories shutting down
within the next few weeks. I know of
several that have met with misfortune in
the last three weeks. Among them are
H. w Bishop & Co. of Chappaqua, N
Y, now in the hands of a receiver; the
Kings County Shoe company of Brook
Ign, also in the hands of a receiver, and
Charles Joyce of Nyack, who was obliged
to shut down. Bishop & Co. turned out
1000 pairs of shoes day, and Joyce about
$780,

LOW WATER MARK
The Ohio River Shrinking Into
a StreamIet.

Cincinnati. O., Oct. 5.-The Ohio river
which a few months ago was a raging
torrent. overspreading its natural con-
fines and causing great loss to life and
property, is now nothing more than
sluggish stream. So low has the river
fallen that in many places in this vicin-
tty it's bed is exposed. and a few more
days without rain will make it resemble
a rivulet.
The scenes during the last flood are still
fresh in the memory of everybody, for
the river was the center of attraction at
that time. Then there was great ac-
tivity in the bottoms to escape the rapid
ly encroaching river, and the prepara-
lions made to guard against the threat
ened destruction could not be made quick
Iy enough. Now everything is changed.
The wharves present a deserted appear
ance, the banks reach far down into the
bed of the river the tops of the bridges,
which at the time of the flood prevented
the steamboats, from passing beneath,
now seem high enough to allow the pass
age of an ocean liner, and even the huge
supports of these structures show high
and dry above the surface of the river
and offer foothoId for precocious youths
who are using the spaces as a bathing
beach

PEANUTTRUST THELATEST
Country's Supply of the Virginia Goo
Der Well Cornered.

Chicago. Oct. 5.-Boys and girls who
have not laid in their fall supply OF
peanut bars and other CONNECTIONS
wherein the Virginia gOober is a compo-
nent would do well to get into the mar
ket at once. Shelled peanuts are ad-
Vancing and will soon reach a point
where the penny stick or bag of pea
nuts will not contain the usual number
of kernels. To cOmplicate matters the
sugar trust has advanced the price of
cOnfectiOnerS' sugar twice within the
of cracker-jack may be smaller in size
as well as poorer in nuts before many
days have passed.
In the case Of the peanuts a pool has
been formed in Virginia and the variety
OF nuts known as Spanish shelIed''
has been cOrnered as completely as any
broker ever ran a corner on the wheat
market. This combination known as
the trust" although not permanently
organized in the usual trust form has
been quietly buying for months. Sew
eral attempts to force the market up
ward proved premature, as small lots
of nuts were still in farmers hands and
at such times would come on the mar
ket IN sufhclent quantity to break the
price for time.
Now, however, the trust is undoubt-
eddy in possession of all the old stock of
Spanish shelled nuts, which is the finest
grade, and in a position to make prices
from now until the new crop is rea dy
for use, which will be until holiday
season, at least: This grade is quoted
at % to rs cents pound, in large lots.
against cents per pound a fortnight
ago Dealers say they are expecting

ARE STILL ENEMIES.
Salvation Army and Volunteers
Will Not Unite as Reported.

New York, Oct. 5.-The World says:
The banner of the Salvation Army is not
going to wave over the American Volun-
teers, as has been stated. On the con-
trary, the flag of the Volunteers will
shortly be unfurled to the breezes of Eng
land. A report from Detroit that the
Volunteers and Salvation Army were go
ing to unite is denied. Mrs. Ballington
Booth, who is at her home at Montclair
n. J., said last night:
1.-The story telegraphed from Detroit of
a possible amalgamation of the Volun-
teers of America with the organization
known as the Salvation Army is utterly
without foundation. Commander Bal
lington Booth and his following left the
Salvation Army on an issue which in
wolves principle and unreconcilable
differences concerning democratic and au-
tocratic government
Colonel Hollimond, private secretary of
Ballington Booth, commander of the Vol
unteers, said: 4 can authorize a COM
plete denial of any plan or prospect of
any affiation of the army and the Vol
unteers.
Major Blackhurst has gone to Eng
land at the invitation of former Saliva
ton Army officers to help establish the
Volunteers in England"
Commander Ballington Booth is in San
Francisco now inspecting posts, his pri-
vate secretary said. Tucker is now in
Colorado, working for his labor colony.

TWENTY MILLS IN ONE.
Majority of the Barbed Wire Factories
to Be Consolidated.

Chicago. Oct. 5.-Of the thirty
mills devoted to the manufacture of
plain and barbed wire and wire nails
in this country twenty may soon be
merged into one concern. The plan
of combination is not in the form of a
trust. nor is it to take the form of
pool. 1t is to be a plain case of cOnso1-
idating twenty mills now operated by
a dozen different firms into one COM
pany. The capital of the new corpora
ton will be at least So, 600, 900, and may
be as high as $50, 000 600. The work of
organizing the new company is still in
progress, with strong indications of
successful contamination. The ultimate
results, so the promoters promise Will
be to lower the price of these two COM
mOditieS to the consumer.
The mills which it is planned to take
into the combination are located in Il
linOis. New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Indiana and Missouri. The plan for
uniting the twenty companies or ginat-
ed with the officers of the Consolidated
Steel and Wire company, with offices in
the ROokery, Chicago. This company
already operates eight mills, two in Jol-
let, one at Lockport, one at Pittsburg
one at Beaver Falls. Pa, one at Allen
town, Pa, one at Cleveland and one at
St. Louis.

DROMIOS FOOL A BARBER.
The Twin Sons of Governor Lowndes
Have an Amusing Experience.

Parkersburg, w. Va, Oct. 5.-The twin
sons of Governor Lloyd Lowndes of Mary
land, who are business men of Clarks-
burg, W. Va, resemble each other so
closely that their parents, from their
babyhood. were obliged to put distin-
gushing mark upon each to tell them
apart. A few days ago Lloyd, Jr., went
into a Clarksburg barber shop, was shaved
and left apparently satisfied Later in
the day Richard, his twin brother, step
ped into the same shop with three days
growth of beard and took a seat in the
same chair in which his double had sat in
the morning. The barber with a scared
look on his face, said:
why, I shaved you this morning"
Realizing the situation the young man
replied:
Yes, and a pretty shave it was"
The owner of the shop came around.
looked at his customers face and began
to apologize for his assistants poor work,
and refused payment for the shave.

How a Connecticut Woman Cele-

Bridgeport, Conn. Oct. Sin the little

In this old home Widow Jennings has

was brother of the father of P. T. Bar

Mrs. Jennings is the mother of II chill

of the latter is Mrs. George 3. Booth, 20
