A movement is said to be on foot
to combine the leading manufacturers
of street cars of the United States,
with a view to establishing a large
erecting works at some important city
on the Atlantic seaboard. Most Of the
manufacturers of this particular kind
of rolling stock are located west of
the Alleghenies, because of the near
ness to the source of lumber supply.
The idea of locating work in the east
for putting together the various parts
that make up the modern street car
is to save the heavy cost in transport
ing the finished cars from the works to
the eastern market, and as well to
better handle the growing trade with
foreign countries. At present a COM
plete car takes up as much space on a
freight train as the material for a
dozen cars would occupy if compactly
slowed away.

A gentleman from MingO, who keeps
close tab on the trend Of events in that
place, stated to a Register reporter that
the chances are bright for the Aetna

Mingo plant, and other advantages are
better than any other plant in the com

CURED three years ago when there was
an old out-Of-date steel plant, old style
boilers, nearly all machinery badly
worn and old style, that it would have
been likely that the plant would have
been closed down and other up-to-date
plants operated. But as it is now,
since nearly a million dollars have been
spent in gigantic improvements, every
thing is in favor of this monster plant
being chosen for work. They have now
a new and complete modern direct pro-
cess steel plant nearly ready for SER
vice; four new modern hot blast stoves
have been erected at the furnace and
new modern water tube boilers have
been put in all departments. They have
a new continuous merchant mill and
new buildings equipped with electric
cranes. They will start with the ore
and coke and finish it into tin plate
bars without any relocating, and the
tin plate trust will use the output, thus
avoiding the trouble and the expense
Of hunting a market. The blowing mill
is to be finished and the rod mill re-

Persons coming from Scio say there
is imminent danger of the town and
the adjacent oil fixtures being wiped
out with fire when the warm. dry
weather sets in. Most of the houses
are made of wood and in many in
stances the engines operating oil wells
are within a few feet of them. With
all the wooden structures saturated
with oil they would be easily ignited.
Insurance companies have taken fright
at the situation and many policies have
been cancelled. All buildings near
wells drilled and producing are re-
garded too risky for the insurance com
panies to carry.

Visit to Be Made to Springfield.

HoLYoKE, MASS, June 20.-Today
was given up almost exclusively by
the President and party to the COM
mencement exercises at. Mt. Holyoke
college. Here the President presented
the diplomas to the graduating class.
Governor Wolcott addressed them, and
Rev. DR.. Justin Smith, president of the
college board of trustees, also made an
address. Miss Grace Mckinley, niece
Of the President. was one of the gradual
ing class, and this fact, which is the
primary cause of the Presidents visit,
together with the fact that the President
Of the United States honored the town
and college by his presence, brought a
large crowd and there was much enthu-
siasm ON the part of the townspeople
and the college girls.
The party left Holyoke about $50,
and met Governor Wolcott at the rail-
road station, ald he accompanied them
to the college.
Final arrangements for the journey to
Springfield was completed. The main
point at issue was as to whether the
trip will be made ON board the little
steamer Mrscot down the Connecticut
river, or whether it will be made by
electric cars. This matter will likely be
decided today. The president announced
definitely that he would remain at
Adams us the guest of w. B. Plunkett
until Wednesday evening, June 2S,
when he expected to leave for Washing
ton.

Nothing like Bar-Ben has ever been
known before in the history OF mod
ern remedies. The most complicated
and aggravated of cases, heretofore
considered incurable, yield instantly
to the wonderful curative properties
of this new discovery. Bar-Ben is as
different from anything and every
thing else as day is from night. The
effects differ from the effects of other
so-called sexual remedies, in that 1t
is not stimulant, but a BLOOD,
NERVE and BRAIN BUILDER. 1t
creates solid flesh, muscle and
strength, and infuses new vigor and
vitality into the weak, nervous
broken-down system, while Its ef-
fects are quickly apparent, and as as
tonishing as they are lasting. The
testimony of thousands of men and
women whom it has lifted from
helpless condition of long suffering,
tells the tale of the great discovery
more effectually than words can por-
tray.
Bar-Ben Restorative is prepared in

HUNGRY, TURNED CANNIBAI
RIondiker Found Partly Eaten and His
Companions Dead Bodies
Miles Away.

CIMRE CITY, ALASKA, May 80, via
San Francisco, June 20.-Three men
who left Dahl river on December 8, for
Jimtown, were not heard of again and
they were supposed to have been lost.
Nothing was heard of them here till the
steamer Ridout arrived today.
The men were Michael Daily, Victor
Ediar and NJ. Provost. They We're from
Providence, R. l.; Woonsocket. R. l.,
and Brockton, Mass. respectively.
Their bodies were discovered about II
miles from the mouth of Old Man creek,
they having lost the trail and become
bewildered. Having left Dahl river
with only three weeks food, but which
was amply sufficient for the $50 miles
to Jimtown, they were soon reduced to
starvation
Daly's body was found, partly eaten,
on the stove in the tent, Some scraps
of moose hide and mocassin were found,
of which they were endeavoring to
make stew. Daly's body was identi-
fled by the clothes. The other two men
were found dead about five miles away
from the tent. The fact of the tent
flaps being shut down when found
would seem to preclude the possibility
of Daly's body having been eaten by
animals. The other men doubtless were
driven by hunger to the awful extremity
Of cannibalism. Four hundred dollars
were found on the bodies.
