THE BOOM IN STEEL TOO BIG.

While the present unprecedented
boom in the iron and steel trade has
demonstrated beyond doubt that the
United States is the greatest manufac-
turing country on earth and easily
leads the world in iron and steel pro-
duction, yet it at the same time and by
its very extent reveals a weakness in
this country in the matter of iron ore
resources, which, if as great as sus-
pected and unless new fields of ore are
found, will be fatal to the continued
pre-eminence of the United States in
iron and steel manufacture and prove
really disastrous to the iron and steel
trades.
Ninety per cent of the iron ore used
in this country is from the Lake Super
ior district, and it is already limited
that this field may prove inadequate to
meet the demands made upon it by the
present tremendous boom. If this is
true the disaster likely to result from
the knowledge will more than wipe out
all the benefits of the recent prosperity
in this industry, which is really the
foundation and tombstone of the in
dustrial world.
James H. Swank, of the Iron and
Steel Association, who is in closest
touch with every branch of the iron
and steel industry, has admitted that
such a result might come from the
present boom. There is just a posi-
bility," he said, mot a probability,
however, that the Lake Superior dis
trict may not meet this year the needs
of the situation"
In this connection it is interesting
and important to know hat the eyes
of iron men are at present centering on
Cuba as a factor in ore production that
may fill the breach. The Spanish
American Ore Company has already ar
ranged to increase it's output of ore to
This country from 10000 tons a month
% 100, 900 tons. This is but a sample
Of the activity going on in the ore pro-
duction of the island under American
stimulus. Previous to the Spanish war
400, 900 tons of ore has been the aver
age i~mportations to the United States
in recent years. This year it is calcu-
lated these importations will reach
100000 tons and rapidly increase dur
ing the next few years. 1t is estimat-
ed that in 1900 the United States will
be getting over 1000. 900 tons of Cuban
ore. This is the silver lining to the
cloud that threatens the Lake Superior
district.

The kissing bug" is playing sad
havoc with c~ountenances in Washing
ton, Baltimore and Philadelphia,
where it seems to be biting, OF kissing,
every physiognomy or pair OF lips left
out over night-for the kissing bug IS
a night flyer. Wherever it gets in its
work it swells that section of the anat-
omy to about ten times its natural
size and the swelling is very painful
and hard to get rid of. One scientist
says he has discovered that the male
kissing bug kisses only women, pretty
ones with luscious lips preferred, while
the female kissing bug selects its vic
tins among the men and is not averse
to the odor or taste of tobacco. This,
however, has not been verified.

THE FLOOD
Inthe Valley Of the Brazos Is Still
Doing Great Damage-Loss Esti-
mated at Four Millions,

Justin, Tex, July 2.-RepQrts from
Brtzos bottoms to-day are that the
waters are still very high but are slow
u ~receding. and it is believed that the
worst Is owe in that section OF the
State.
The estimated damage to the country
tributary to the Brazos valley of ST.
600. 900 is none too high. 1t is not be-
Ieved that the loss of life will be any
where near as large as reported and
will be principally among he negroes.
Reports from along the bottoms
state that hundreds Of people have been
rescued during the past two days by
means of improvised RATS and that in
each case of known drowning some
party has indiscreetly upset a raft after
getting on it, with the result that the
entire load was thrown into the water.
The rushing waters are rapidly ac-
cumulating hundreds of dead horses
and cattle at the mouth OF the Brazos.
Reports from there to-day are that
they are floating out into the gulf n
many are stranded in the eddles along
the lowlands adjacent.
There were very hard rains AGAIN
to-day to the south and west OF mere
and the rivers in that section are hoom-
ing tonight, but no fatalities have been
reported. There was no additional
rainfall reported along the Brazos,
however, and it is hoped that the worst
is over. though it will take a week for
the waters to recede.
