HOTEL AT BRADDoCK.
May be Built in Time for Next
Summer - Building Lots
Sold and Plot Reserved For
Hotel.

Another year and no materiali-
cation of the project to build a
summer hotel ON or near Brad,
dock Heights. Ample evidence
OF the success of such an enter.
prise has forced itself upon those
who were at the head of the pro
pOposed concern.
This summer has been a ter.
ribly hot one aud the summer
boarders in Frederick County
has been more numerous than
ever. In every section farmers
are turning their homes into
boarding houses and the good
wife manages to add by her eff
forts, considerable to the family
bank account.
The easy accessibility to Brad
dock by means of the trolley and
the high elevation and beautiful
view of two valleys, commend it
as a site for a hotel, par excel
lence.
1t really begins to look as if
something tangible will result out
of the maze of uncertainty pre-
existant. The best evidence of
this is that recently a sale of lots
took place by the Braddock
Heights Company at the top of
the mountain overlooking both
the Frederick aud Middletown
valleys, and the following per
sons were purchasers: Mrs. j.
Hanshew Marley, DIR. G. f.
Goodell, Messrs. Adolphus Fear
hake, l.. E. Mullinix, Marshall
Etchison, Thomas H. Halter and
Elias Ramsburg, all of Frederick.
Each lot is of sufficient size for a
fine cottage with a spacious lawn
In front and garden in the rear.
The location is in the field back
of the switch where the cars turn
off to go to BraddOck Heights.
A large plot of ground is laid
off for hotel site and the cot
tages will be built on each side.
1t is said that all the lot owners
will plant trees this fall and build
in the spring. If this is the case
a hotel will shortly be built,
probably next summer. 1t must
prove profitable investment and
be an eagerly sought breathing
place for the people of Frederick,
Washington and Baltimore.

May Accept Call.

A call has been extended to
Rev. T. Edward Helfenstein, of
st. Marks Church, Petersville,
this county, by the vesters of st.
Johns Church, two miles west of
Ellicott City, which has been
without a rector since the death
of DR.. Hall Harrison. 1t is the
impression that the call will be
accepted. Rev. Helfenstein has
now a very extensive charge,
which includes churches in
Brunswick and Brownsville. He
is a member of an old Frederick
county family. Rev. John l. Vel
lott, of ST. Marks Church, and

OUR BIG FAIR.
Managers Busily Engaged
Making Preparations for
the Coming Exhibition
Premium Lists Now Ready.

With the distribution of the
catalogue and premium lists, the
managers of the great Frederick
County Agricultural Fair, inaug.
rated active preparations for their
coming exhibition. These cata-
lOgues are now ready and can be
had by calling on or addressing
the Secretary, Mr.. Harry G.
Keefer. The work of advertising
the fair will be rushed from now
until the opening day, and huge
posters will shortly be seen on
every wayside and in all ada
cent towns and cities.
, Already application for attrac-
tion privileges have been re.
ceived by the secretary and it is
certain that a fine line of amuse.
ments will be obtained, beside
the regular side shows, etc.
The work of fixing up and i'm.
proving the grounds and build.
ings will soon be under way and
everything done with painstakine
care to insure a most successful
event.
The dates for the fair will be
October 8, 10, IL and IL, follow
ing the York fair and week
ahead of Hagerstown.
This arrangement Of dates is
most satisfactory, as it enables
horses and exhibits to visit all
the fairs without being compelled
to make a choice.
A new and important rule has
been made by the fair managers
and will be strictly adhered to.
1t is as follows:
"PersOns who intend to com
pete for premiums of the fair
must have their animals or arti.
Giles on the grounds on Monday,
October 8, by six o'clock p. IN.
They positively will not be re.
ceived on Tuesday This regula.
ton will be strictly adhered to
on account of all animals, &C.,
being judged on that day instead
of Wednesday, as heretofore"

Not Safe For Rev. j. A. Ingle
in China.

Rev. j. Addison Ingle, of this
city, and son of the Rev. Osborn
Ingle, of the Episcopal Church,
some time ago applied to the mis-
siOnary society of his church to
return him again to his field of
duty in China, where he had al
ready served two terms. A dis
patch to the Associated Press,
from New York, dated August
Is, says:
Rev. Robert p. Kimber, one of
the secretaries of the Protestant
Episcopal Missionary Society, re-
ceived a cablegram today from
Rt. Rev. Frederick r. Graves,
Bishop of Shanghai and the
Yangtze Valley. The message
read:
Do not send.
This was forwarded in answer
to a cablegram of inquiry as to
whether party of missionaries
destined for China should be
sent out. Rev. j. A. Ingle, of
Frederick, Nd, had applied to
the society to send him out
again, and there were also a
number of beginners who had ar
ranged some months ago to sail
from Vancouver September 10 to
take up mission work.
From this it is evident that
conditions in China are such as
to preclude the expectation OF
any missionaries at the present
time and there is no telling when
it will be practicable.

WEEKLY REVIEW OF
 THE IRON MARKET Calls for Contract Delivery the Principal Feature. No. 2 FOUNDRY IS SCARCE No Indications of Falling Off in Melt Alabama Makers Have Been Un-
 able to Accept Offers of
 Foreign Buyers
No. 2 FOUNDRY IS SCARCE

Cincinnati, February u.-(SpeciaL)- )-Reg- CTS Brown and Company, in reviewing the iron market for the week ending Saturday, February 1O says:
 "The principal feature of the past week has been the extreme urgency on the part of consumers to have iron sent forward on existing contracts. The furnace companies are more occupied now in trying to satisfy those ito whom iron was sold months ago, than in attempting to get new contracts. The output of furnaces on foundry iron has in general been very disappointing. Many of them have been unable to get sufficient supply of fuel, and have either been blow ing light or have been obliged to bank tenn porarily. The consequence is that the out put has been irregular, ranging from high silicon to mottled grades without a due proportion of No. 1 and No. 2 foundry and soft irons. The coke companies, who have surplus of furnace coke to sell, have been for iron producers is nowhere near the fig ure that is generally supposed.
 No. 2 Foundry Scarce
 "The impression seems to be gaining ground among buyers that it is not reason- able to expect decline in prices during the continuance of present conditions and some of those who have been testing the market have purchased round lots for scattered de- livery at best quotations obtainable. No. 2 foundry is especially scarce, and those wishing to buy basic iron find there are practically no sellers who will guarantee stated deliveries.
 "The car companies and malleable con- cerns are greatly inconvenieneed by the in- ability of furnaces to ship promptly, and the output of some of them is curtailed in consequence.
 ''There is a disposition still manifest on the part of many buyers to stay out of the market so long as they can, and if, as usu- ally happens, they all come in. to cover their requirements at about the same time, there Is a possibility that the demand will push quotations higher, at least temporarily.
 No Failing ofT in Melt
 "There is little now to be said as to the efron market. Some fairly liberal purchases have been made, and slight concessions have been realized by buyers in return for their patience in holding out for lower prices. There is no indication anywhere of falling off in melt on the contrary ship ments in January were in excess of those of January year ago by at least 8 per cent, and February will show quite as great an increase. Tt is the shipments and not the current orders that tell the story of pro- duction and consumption.
 Attractive offers have been made during the week by foreign buyers, but makers of Alabama iron have been unable to meet them not being able to spare the iron from their domestic customers, who are clamor- ing for overdue installments The foreign warrant markets have slightly recovered from the setback occasioned by the latest English reverSes."
