BAKERS CUT WEIGHT.
Poor in New York Feel the Effect of
High sr Prices of Flour.

New York Aug. PA 5 cent loaf
of bakers bread weighed a pound last
week but it weighs from two to three
ounces less this week. Practically all
the small bakers in the city have met
the advance in the price of flour by de-
creasing the weight of the 1oaVeS.
The bake shops which do a small
business each with the residents of its
immediate vicinity were caught with
small stocks of flour on hand when the
price was advanced. They are now
compelled to pay from 81 to $1.50 per
barrel more than a month ago. This
would add from a half to three-Quar-
tiers of a cent to the cost of each pound
loaf.
With apparently one mind the bakers
reduced the size of the loaf in proper
ton to the increase in the cost of flour.
They made no secret of it, and when
the more observing of their customers
complained they explained the reason
for it.
Should the price of flour be still fur
Their advanced the bakers will again cut
the size of loaveS and the hardship up
on the poor will be correSp Ondingly
greater.
While bread made by the smaller
bakers has been reduced in size in near
1y every case, the large baking compa-
MES which supply the grocery and del
1catessen stores have neither increaS d
the price nor reduced the size of loaveS
This is because these large establish
mentS purchase flour in large Quanti-
ties, and all had a large stock on hand
when the price went I'D.

HANNA BUYS A MINE.

Gogabic Range

Ashland, Wis, Aug. 2s-The Newport
mine in this city, one of the most i'm
portant of the Gogebic Range mines,
has been sold to Ferdinand Schleising-
er, of Milwaukee, and Mark Hanna of
Cleveland. The new owners assumed
control today In the boom days of 1885
this property was known as the Iron
King, and passed into the hands of the
present owners after the Moore and
Burton failures. Since 1886 the New
port has produced 1880, 900 tons of first
grade ore, portions of which are high in
manganese.
The average yearly output is 100000
tons. The late owners were Ohio glass
manufacturers, j. J. Gill of Steubenville
being general manager. The Newport
has been closed for the past three
months, but shipments have been going
forward from the stock piles.
Orders were received today to open
one shaft, and 125 men were given work
The force will be further increased next
week. The sale of the Newport also in

The Alumni Association of the German
Theological Seminary of Newark held its
annual meeting in the German Presby-
terrain Church at Bloomfield Tuesday
afternoon. Forty members from all parts
of the country were present. The as
ISOLATION resolved to raise a fund by sys-
tematic contribution for widows of de-
ceased alumni and $3.50 was raised at the
meeting. During the past year two mem
bers, Rev. David Blumenfeld of Pleasant
dale. West Orange, and Rev. A. H. AK
mann, of Cincinnati, o., have died, and
resolutions of coincidence were adopted.
Rev. George C. Mueller of Lawrence,
Mass, read an interesting PAPER on the
asMillennium,'' and a discussion followed.
The subject of having presiding elders
was brought up and caused considerable
amusement. One member suggested that
the officer be known as a "preslider," and
that Rev. w. A. Nordt of Scranton, Pa.
be given the honor on account of his full
r of gray hair. The election of officers
resulted as follows:-President, Rev. f.
