IRON TRADE CONDITIONS.

Rogers, Brown & Co. say:
1t is seldom that the last week of the year sees
much buying of Dig iron. This year, however, is
exception There has been a fair business going
in small lots, and two transactions of
ma agnitude have been closed IN Eastern markets.
The trade is requiring increased shipments on
contracts. which proves that stocks In buyers
yards are small and the melt Is increasing. The
year closes with bright prospects in America, but
amid gloom in England and Germany How far
the encouragement there over American
petition will disappear when the pressure of pres
ent heavy shipments of pig metal. biets. etc, is
relieved. remains to be seen. 1t is certain that
since the advance in this country and the heavy
decline in prices in Great Britain and on the Con-
tinent now export business must stop. far
heavy lines are concerned In the lighter finished
forms however, there is not likely be much
interruption The most active features of iron
sumption at present are shipbuilding bridge con-
Never in the history of the country were the large
pants devoted to the above industries so full of
Contracts There is improvement also in cast iron

ANOTHER CLASH BETWEEN THE
 STRIKERS AND CIVIL OFFICERS
A Special Policeman Killed and a Number of Persons Injured at
 the Oneida Colliery.

Hazleton, Pa., October 10.-A special po- hceman was instantly killed another wounded in the head, a striker was proba- ply fatally shot and ten non-union men were more or less seriously wounded at the Oneida colliery of Coxe Bros. & Go. in a clash between the officers and 800 strikers this morning. The victims are:
 Killed:
 Meadow, one of the officers conveyed in a place to Oneida.
 Wounded:
 George Kelner, ss years of age, of Beaver Meadow, also special officer. He received shot wounds in the head, but will recover.
 Joseph Leske, 3S years of age, of Shepp- ton, a striker. He was shot in the groin. and will probably die.
 Ten non-union men were stoned, but only two of them were seriously injured. They are:
 John Vanblargin and James Tosh of Sheppton.
 The Oneida colliery has been in operation since the inauguration of the strike.
 The union men at Oneida and Sheppton, where many of the employees of the Oneida and Derringer colieries of Coxe Bros & SO. lNeI ueClueu edTly tIllS IlOlIllli6 lO SAoo0 down the mine. They gathered in groups on the streets as early as o'clock. AS the non-union men went to work they were asked by the strikers to remain at home. Some turned back; others did not. Those who went to the colliery were stoned. Van blargn, one of the non-union employees, at tempted to draw a revolver, but the weap- on was taken from him, and in the beating he received several ribs were broken.
 As the small mine locomotive used Tn hauling coal from the No. and No. col Meries to the Oneida breaked pulled up on the road near the latter colliery crowd of women blocked the track. The women were told by General Superintendent Kud- lick to go home. He assured them that their husbands would get an increase in wages and that their other grievances would be properly adjusted. The women refused to listen and stoned the superin- tendent, who was wounded in the head.
 Then the striking men and the women rushed toward the No. colliery. force of about fifty special policemen, who had been brought down from Beaver Meadow to prevent trouble, attempted to intercept the mob, but they were powerless to do anything and retired to the engine house.
 Just as the officers got to close to shel- ter a shot was fired. This was followed by another and in a few minutes many shots rang through the air. Policeman Mills was the first to fall Then Joseph Leske, striker, staggered to the ground. No one knows who shot first, but 1t is believed that both the strikers and the officers used their weapons. A gunshot killed Mills and small shot struck Policeman Kelner. Leske, the striker was struck by ball from volver, with which all the officers were armed.
 After the shooting the strikers dispersed. Sheriff Tolle of Schuylkill County, in whose territory the clash occurred, was in Philadelphia at the time and could render no assistance. His chief deputy, James ODonnell, this afternoon went to the scene with force of men.

ANOTHER VICTIM
Laura Carroll Served as Subject in In-
 surance Swindle

Chicago, October 1o.-Laura Carroll Is named as another victim of the insurance conspiracy syndicate, said to be headed by August M. Unger. The physician used her, 1t Is said, as subject on whom to take out policies in game similar to which was attempted with Marie Defenbach.
 The Carroll woman disappeared four or five months ago, and none of those with whom she associated have seen her since During her residence here she was an in- innate friend of Miss DefenbAch, and is al- legged to have been patient and sweetheart of Dr. Unger. Miss Carroll was about 2 years of age and was an orphan.
 During the six or seven months that F. WAyland Brown was mainaging the Moon- ey and Roland office here, an unusual num- Der of stenographers were employed These were all women and were employed by Brown.
 The subsequent disappearance of any of them is now deemed a matter worth looking into, as likely to show effort to defraud on @ much larger scale than has yet benn brought to light. The subjects on which the Unger- Smiley syndicate secured in- surance with fraudulent Intent are all be- lieved to be women, while the active mem- bers of the organization are men. There are indications that the organization has . much wider scope than was first thought It Is asserted by detectives that at least two score of people are criminally connected with It. One of these who are under sur veillAnce is a wealthy and prominent law yer. He Is alleged to be the financial back CT.
