STEEL TR ey PoR ROADS.

Depars m MT of sxsscuiture Getting
F.s mates from Rolling Wills.
WASHINGTON, Sept. Is, 1897.-In ac-
cordance with the desire of the Secretary
of Agriculture to promote more extended
on wagon roads the office of road in
quiries has made arrangements with the
Cambria Iron Works of Johnstown, Pa,
for rolling special rails for this purpose,
these ARA ngements to go into effect as
soon as definite orders from responsible
parties amounting to one mile of track
are received
engineers of the iron company, after
much discussion, have agreed upon plan
of track which promises to meet all re-
quiIements. 1t uses no wood in construc-
tion and no cross ties for support, but
consists of simple inverted trough or
channel of steel for each wheel, with
slightly raised bead on the inside to guide
the wheels, each channel resting in bed
of gravel and the two tied together occa-
sionally to prevent spreading.
Special devices for remounting are pro-
vided at each joint. The bearing or
tread for wheels is eight inches wide, the
thickness about seven-sixteenths of an
inch The weight of the structure is
about one hundred tons per mile of single
track road and it will be furnished in
small sections at the rate So, 500 per mile.
The first order for track has been given
by the New York State Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station.

HAZLETON, Sept. Is, 1S97.-The strike
situation is unchanged this morning and
up until noon no word had been received
at Brigade Headquarters of trouble at
any of the mines or of more men stopping
work General Goblin says he does not
expect any trouble today but is holding
several detachments of cavalry close by
to proceed at the word of command He
is still in close communication with all
the mines, and is being kept fully in
formed of the details of all the miners
meetings At nine o'clock this morning
the Fourth Regiment, which had been
stationed at Audenried since Saturday,
was given orders to proceed to Ec1ley at
once. The regiment was taken to Free
land on special train and marched from
that point to Eckley, distance of few
miles. A detachment of cavalry made up
of the City Troop of Philadelphia and the
Governors Staff of Harrisburg, went to
Cranberry, on the western outskirts of
Hazleton and made demonstration SINH
lar to that of yesterday at Drifton. Jeddo,
Eckley and Buck Mountain. Incidental
to this movement, General Goblin stated
that information had been received by
him that some of the miners had Sc
creted some dynamite in Cranberry. He
did not know where, but the cavalry was
ordered to make search of the sus-
pected places.
The funeral of another of the victims
took place today. He was buried in ST.
Joseph's Cemetery and his remains were
followed from the deceased's late home
in Cranberry by line of 1000 miners. The
men were quiet and very orderly all along
the line, and passed in front of Brigade
Headquarters where they were seen by
General Goblin. 1t was reported this
morning that some of the local leaders
are making arrangements to hold "a big
mass meeting in Hazleton on Saturday
night, which will be addressed by a num-
Der of labor leaders. All the miners in
the middle coal field will arrange to be
present and it is estimated that $4,000 men
will attend the meeting. There is some
question as to whether the massing of
such a large body will be permitted by
General Goblin.
General Goblin, when informed of the
proposed meeting, said:-"1 have heard
nothing of the meeting as yet, and until
l do hear / cannot say what l will do.
Should be decided to have the meeting I
will then make known what course I
shall pursue"
Today is pay day at Pardee strippings
in Lattimer, and by request squad of
cavalry escorted the paymaster from this
city to the mining village.

loudly cheered. When the head of the
procession had reached the end of the
Morris street dock the third battalion was
still at Warren street.
At the dock the iron steamboat Sirius
was in waiting The carrying capacity
of the vessel is three thousand. For a
time it looked as though there would not
be room enough. The men were finally
packed away, however. and every inch
of room was taken. There were three
thousand men on the boat and when it is
considered that each ticket cost s. some
idea may be formed of the success of the
outing.
Every politician in the city and county
was aboard and even Tammany Hall sent
a friendly delegation. Beyond all ques-
ton. the outing was the greatest one s1 that
ever left the city. Some people thought,
too, that it to some degree demonstrated
how Robert Davis stands as a leader.
There will be lots to entertain the crowd
at College Point, and there will be plenty
to eat and drink. Some political signifi-
canoe is attached to the event every year
and many believe that this falls Assem-
bly, ticket will be made up. There will
be hot time in the old town tonight
when the association returns.

AUTHORITIES ON SESAMOIDS
OsteoIogIst Bailey Has Not Read All
the Books In the World.


CHICAGO, Sept. Is, 1S97.-Juror John e.
Fowler. Jr, whose sudden Illness last
Monday, caused recess in the trial of
Adolph l.. Luetgert, alleged wife mur-
derer, has almost fully recovered today.
The trial was resumed, with Prof.
George Vincent Bailey, of the Field Co
lumbian Museum, on the witness stand.
The cross-examination was taken up by
Attorney Vincent at the point at which
it was dropped Monday.
Attorney Vincent began a sharp cross
examination of the witness upon the lat
ter's authorities upon sesamoid bones.
Prof. Bailey named a number of recog-
nized authorities and added that even
these were not entirely reliable at pres
ent because the world was progressing
and new discoveries were being made in
science every day. Then the attorney for
the defence read a long list of authori-
ties and asked the witness if he was ac-
quainted with the writings of each of
them To each of these an objection
was entered and sustained. Judge Tut
hill finally, becoming tired of the line of
rcss-examination and exclaimed, "Oh,
get through with that list. Busy, prac-
teal men haven't time to read books
these days"
The jurors smiled at this and ex-Judge
Vincent frowned.
Luetgert looked tired and worn this
morning and the heat is having a de-
pressing effect upon him.
The crowd at the Court House door
was large and the deputy sheriffs in at
tendance had much trouble with people
who were det ermined to get into the
court room.

had an investigation made at the differ
ent Indian agencies of the number of in
sane Indians at each of them. The poll

PLAGUE UNDER CONTROL
New Cases Not Developing and
Mortality Well Kept Down
Quarantine Effects.

NEW ORLEANS, La. Sept. 15 1881
There has been no further change in the
plague situation since the official bulletin
of the Board of Health last night, de-
claring five new cases of yellow fever.
These cases will be visited again to COM
plete the diagnosis. A final report will
be made during the day. Numerous sus-
pected cases are being reported to ~the
Board, but many of them are found to
show no trace of yellow fever. So wide-
spread is the concern in the situation that
it is doubtful if any case of fever appears
with suspicious circumstances attending
it, that it is not Immediately brought to
the attention of the Board by neighbors.
Every case reported is entered and rapidly
investigated and the board is constantly
adding to its staff of inspectors.
The absence of mortality is having a
tendency to strengthen public confidence
in the methods which are being applied
in the treatment of the cases and unless
the disease should suddenly assume a
malignant form, many people who had
intended to leave town will probably re-
main and help fight the battle rather than
run the risk and inconvenience of travel
ing through parishes and counties that

plague, and which are receiving visitors
with shotguns instead of open arms.
On the streets today there is no SEM
blance of excitement, and what business
there is to transact locally is going on
without interruption. 1t is only at the
steamer and ship landings and at the de-
pots that any evidences of the effect of
the fever here are found. So many
towns are quarantining against river
craft that most of the boats will have to
be withdrawn for the time being. At
the railroads very little freight is being
handled and the passenger business has
dwindled to nothing. The Louisville and
Nashville took off today it's through
train leaving in the morning and it's
through train arriving in the evening.
The Mississippi Valley has withdrawn it's
regular daily train to and from Memphis.
There being little or no travel on these
trains, it was not considered worth the
expense of operating them until the
country RECEIVERS from its fright.
The Board of Health will prosecute as
vigorously as possible its efforts to have
the clothing and baggage of all people
who have arrived from infected over-the-
lake points disinfected. It it hoped there
by to kill any germs that exist there and
have not yet gotten in their work
