A N1ERITED HONOR
Bestowed Upon T. j. Duffy at the rot.eis
National Convention.


Thos. ]. Duffy returned yesterday
from East Liverpool, where he stopped
on his way home from the National
convention of the Brotherhood OF Up
erative Potters, which recently met III
Trenton, n. ]. The other local deie-
gates to the convention returned
few days ago. They were: jess
Jackson, Harry Hailes- VIM. Hughes,
VIM. Latausch, Thos. Wildblpod, and
John Phillips. Mr.. Jackson was re-
elected second vice president or the
National organization.
The selection of Mr. Duffy to be
National secretary of the organization
was a merited compliment to an a.
tive. energetic, and thoroughly capa-
BILE young man. The honor came en-
tirelv without solicitation. Mr.. Duff
fv was named for second vice presi-
dent and declined in favor OF Mr.
Jackson. He had received no lntlma-
ton that the delegates held hlgner
honor in reserve for him. When ne was
placed in nomination by prominen.
delegate from Trenton, he declined,
because of the fact that his service IN
that capacity would necessitate his re-
moval from Wheelng. He was per-
suaded to withdraw his objections, and
was chosen by an Overwhelming ma
jority over the other two candidates
for the position, both residents OF
East Liverpool
The national organization will mes
have cause to regret the selection o;
Mr.. Duffy for this responsible posi-
hpnn qEGOPidted
with organized labor movements, ana
while very modest he has manifested
qualities of leadership which have
been recognized and appreciated by his
fellow workmen, and he has taken u
position of prominence rarely attain
ed by one of his years. He possesses
a judicial mind, excellent Judgment.
and ervatism-qualities which
will be of inestimable service to the
men of his craft, especially in dealings
between the pottery officials and the
organization.
Organized labor in Wheeling and vi
cinity will regret the departure of M.
F. Tighe and T. J. Duffy from this
city. Mr.. Tighe will take up a per
manent residence in Pittsburg when
he enters the headquarters of the
Amalgamated Association. Mr.. Duffy
will probably move to East Liverpool
early in the month of August, and will
accept a position in one of the potter
les in that city. There is move
ment on foot to increase the salary Of
the potters' national secretary, In Or
der to justify him in devOting his en-
tire time and attention to the organi-
cation This is strongly advocated by
the Commoner and Glassworker OF
Pittsburg. 1t may take definite form
at the first meeting of the official
board of the B. of o. P.

The latest reports from the TOP"
mill blast furnace are to the effect that
there is no longer any danger of a
chill, and that within a few days the
metal will be in its old-time shape,
This is good news for the management
and stockholders, as chill just. now
would have meant the loss of a very
large amount of money, not only be-
cause of the actual expenses, but in the
loss Of business because of the long
stoppage which would have been en-
tailed The escape from this loss is
largely due to Mr.. Nick Reister and his
son, Nick Reister, Jr.. and to the advice
and work Of Mr.. Frank Crawford. of
the Riverside, an expert in furnace
management and difficulties, who was
called in as consulting physician in the
difficult case, as has been heretofore
mentioned in this paper. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Reister, Jr.. will here
after have immediate charge of the fur
mace, and it will thus be in the best OF
hands The company and all connect
ed with its management are to be con-
graduated upon the escape from SER
ious disaster at critical time.

RIVER NEWS OF INTEREST
PICKED UP ON THE WHARF.

Theodore A. Cofffeld, better known On
the river as .Dory," was drowned yes
terday morning off the towboat Sam
Clark. Coffield is well known on the
upper river. He was 20 years OF age.
His home was in Sardis. 0. He was
single and made his home with his
widowed mother.
Coffield was a deckhand on the Sam
Clark, having joined the boat while
she was laid up by the low water at
Sardis. Coffield was on watch when
the boat reached point some distance
above the Top mill. At this point the
Bertha met the tow and threw line
to the Clark, as she was to take part
of the fleet to Pittsburg. Coffield caught
the line, and before he could make it
fast he was dragged overheard with 1t.
A yawl put out from the Clark, but be-
fore it reached the struggling man he
had sank Several boats rowed about
the place where he was last seen for

come to the surface, but nothing more
was seen of it.
A relative of Coffields, who is on the
Jewel, in speaking of the matter last
night, said that from all he could hear
of the accident, it was his opinion the
man had lost his life through careless
ness. Coffield was a good swimmer, he
said, and he had heard that he kept
above the surface nearly to the Union
bridge pier He also said that he had
been told that when the yawl had hnally
put out to rescue Coffield, it was
manned by only two men and one OF
them sat in the stern. Whether these
are the facts of the case or not could
not be learned.

A Very Gratifying Result.

The vote accorded John c. Rutter
Jr,, on Saturday for Register and Re-
corder is a splendid tribute to his
popularity, throughout the entire
county, and especially SO in Blooms
burg, where he carried every ward by
good majorities. Indeed the result
in this town should be very gratifying
to him because it is the home of four
of the other candidates for the same
office.
