A Pig Iron FR mine.

CLEVELAND, July 26.-The pig iron
famine that was predicted several weeks
ago appears to have materialized. The
brokers in this city say the dealers are not
trying to sell iron for shipment before
the first of January next, and none is to
be had for shipment sooner than Sept. /.
There will be a long period at the end OF
the year, it is predicted, when there will
be nothing but contract iron. A large
percentage Of the manufacturers, the
per cent being placed as high as 40, are
depending entirely upon wild iron, and it
is said that most of these will have to
close down.

INGeRSOLl DIES SUDDENLY.
Career of the Brilliant orator nnd
Noted Agnostic Closed.


NEW YORK, July 22.-Robert G.. In
gersol died at his home, Walston-on-
Hudson, near Dobbs Ferry, yesterday
afternoon. His death was sudden and
unexpected and resulted from the heart
trouble from which he had suffered since
1896.
Mrs. 1ngersoll was the only person in
the room with him when he died. Death
came to him as he had recently expressed
a. desire it should, painlessly and without
warning.
Mr.. Ingersoll was born Aug. II, 1888,
at Dresden, N. Y. His father was n
preacher in the Grahamite church-a
branch of the Presbyterian-and the boy
was brought up in the strict rules of the
followers of that creed
His early life was spent in many of
the small towns of Ohio, where his fa-
ther had charge of various congregations.
The elder Mr.. Ingersoll lived in Ash
tabula for several years, and 1t was there

BROOKLYN GAR STRIKE.
Sunday Travel on All Lines Re-
ed-The Tie Up Fails.

NEW YORK, July 24.-The fact that
cars were run yesterday on all lines
under good headway shows the strike is
practically dead. TO the seaside resorts
traffic was more general than it was last
Sunday, but the public did not take ad'
vantage of the improving service, proba-
bly, owing to the fear of possible disturb
ances and outrages which have so far
marked the aftermath of the strike.
Strike leaders admit that the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit company ran more cars
to the seaside resorts than on any day
since the strike was declared.

DEMOCRATIC FRAUDS.

Gross frauds are being perpetrated by
the democrats in the matter of the.
registration of voters. The names
of scores of men who have no
legal residence in the city are be-
ing placed on the registration books,
and former residents of Walkerville and
Centerville, who are employed in the
mines of the Anaconda company, are
boldly registered in the city, in order to
vote at the municipal election.
The republicans are powerless just now
to prevent these men from registering,
but the law fully covers the matter, and
II they attempt to vote they will be ar
rested. The names of scores of illegally
registered voters have already been OBJ
tanned.

of his arrest. Tom Sullivan, he said, lad
fired the shot in front of the brick saloon.
Moore testified in his wv behalf. He
said that on the night before Christmas
he was drinking at various places and

had of anything earthly was while he
was in the California brewery. Along

himself in a chair at the Clarence hotel.
He had been asleep and while in that con-
dltlon a fight had started. In doing their
duty towarde each other one of the COM
batants ran against his im~provised bunk
and awakened him. He then got up n
went to the Mission lodging house on
South Main street. 1t was then Z o'clock
and he retired. Some time during the
day he arose and after knocking about
town a few hours he had gone to Walker
vile. While there a friend of his acct
dentally shot him. but he kept it to him
