The American pig iron product, last
Year, amounted to 1l,7S3,934 gross tons.
This is 2,121,254 tons more than the
product of the previous year, which
was the largest on record. OF more
significance even than these figures is
the fact that the consumption was
almost as large as the product, and
also necessarily larger than ever be-
fore. The stock of iron unsoId at the
end of the year amounted to only 291,-
2S3 tons, as compared with 656, 4S9 tons
at the end of the previous year The
iron trade is commonly considered the
index of general business conditions.

The size of the republican majority in
the next Senate is to depend upon the
number of deadlocks that Will prevent
elections of senators in state legisla-
lures. Estimates have hitherto given the
republicans a majority of 10 or 20. The
deadlock, however, will be a very inn
portant matter, if the Senate should be
called for an extra session for the pur-
pose of passing upon the Spanish
treaty. In Delaware, PENNSYLVANIA
wisconsin and Washington, the repub-
means are strong enough to elect a SEN
etor OF their own faith, if they would
not fritter away their opportunity by
Quarreling among themselves. Much the
same might be said Of California. Mon
tana has just elected an uncompromis-
ing democrat to succeed Mantle, whose
repuollcanism is not >above question
another democrat is probably coming
from Utah to succeed an independent
OF doubtful standing. On the other hand
the republicans are sure of certain con-
spicuous gains. Maryland New Jersey
New York, Indiana, North Dakota and
west Virginia, will be represented bv
TWO republicans in the Senate for the
nrst Tune in some years. and of course
chere Is the chance that Washington
ana wisconsin will be similarly fortu-
haee' but that remains to be seen.

Tho Needles Eye.

The passage from the New
Testament, "lt is easier for n
came" " etc, has perpleXed many
good men who have read it literal
ly. In Oriental cities there are
in the large gates small and very
low apcrturcs, cal!cd metaphors
cally "nccdle'S eyes" Just as we
talk of windows on shipboard as
"bulps eyes" These entrances
are too narrow for camel to
pass through them in the ordinary
manner, or even if loaded. When
a loaded camel has to pass through
one of these entrances, it knccls
down, its load is removed, and
then it shutlles through on its
knees. "Yestcrday," writes Il
lady from Cairo, 81 saw a camel
90 through the eye Of needle,
that is, the low, arched door of
an enclosure. He must knecl,
and bow his head to creep through:
and thus the rich man must hum
bic himself.n

j. w. Harris raised some upland
rice last year. He had it hulled
at Taylor's mill, at TayIor's sta
ton, in Grecnville County. The
little slips of lowland on the
creeks that will make 40 bushels
of corn to the acre will make 100
bushels Of rice, and if irrigation
is practicable the yield may 90

FREE-FOR-ALL FIGHT.
Police Get in Trouble Making Some
Wholesale Arrests,

Officer Skoog placed two men under
arrest, at Ninth and Wabasha streets,
shortly after midnight, and in the fight
that ensued fully fifty Infatuated men
took part Cobblestones flew through the
air, and for time 1t appeared that Skoog
and the officers who came to his assist
ance would be whipped After standing
off the crowd at the point of revolvers
the officers succeeded In landing six men
at police headquarters
Officer Skoog was attracted to the scene
by seeing two men fighting on the pave
ment. He seized the man on top bv
the collar and endeavored to drag him
from the undermost man, who, by this
time, was unconscious from the effects Of
the beating he had received. The man
under arrest turned on the officer, and
Skoog says, assisted by a number of men
who came from saloon on the corner
where an opening was being held, sue
ceeded in downing the policemaon, who
called for assistance. Mic Herges, a dep
uty sheriff, responded, and, assisted by
William Smith, employed as an aeronaut
at the state fair, helped keep the crowd
at bay BY this time Sergeant Ross,
Lieut.. Bahe and officer Murnane arrived
on the scene, and several more men
whom the police allege to have taken
part in the melee were placed under ar
rest. The police and some of the wilt
nesses, however, disagree on this point.

also injured with missiles. Murnane's

binary case. The game of policy is a
simple thing, and from my own knowl-
edge 1 know that all this talk about
it being game in which women and
children engage is misleading. 1t is
played principally by colored people and
grown men who are thoroughly aware
Of the chances they take 1t does not
reach out into society and induce inno-

The court at first imposed a fine of
800 on Reilly, but after a plea made by
Reilly that he would discontinue any
connection with the place at "a East
Third street the fine was reduced to $25
The defense made no objection to the
amount of the fine. Five men were ar
rested and each held on two charges, out
of which one conviction was secured.

INSURGENTS AGGRESSIVE.
Assume the Offensive and Attack
and She'll Two Towns

MANILA, Sept. 3.-The insurgents made
an unsuccessful attempt yesterday to
drive Col Smith out of Angeles with ar
tillery, the first time they tried to use
this method for two months. They
brought two Krupp guns up and fired
eight shrapnel shells at the town at
dawn. Only two shells exploded and the
gunnery did no damage. Lieut.. Keneley's
guns, of the First artillery were brought
into action Immediately and soon drove
the enemy from their position.
At 4:30 o'clock this morning another
party of rebels fired into Guagua, which
is held by two companies of the Ninth
regiment of infantry, supported by the
gunboat Laguna de Bay. One native res
ident was wounded. The enemy was
driven off by Infantry firing and the guns
of the gunboat
