TRAVEL UNUSUALLY HEAVY.
PROSPERITY SHOWN IN THE GREAT DE-
MAND FOR PARLOR CAR AC-
COMMODATIONS.

The railroads having terminals in this city have
been taxed almost beyond their capacity in the
last few days by the incoming and outgoing crowds
of passengers. The tide of European travel has
great bulk OF the homecoming tourists Is being
landed in this city. Many who only desired to stay
here long enough to effect a transfer from the
piers to the outgoing trains have been compelled
to lengthen their visits because of the lack Of
sleeping car accommodations
MutItudes are also coming back from summer
resorts in New-England and In the upper counties
Of this State, and on reaching New-York they
must transfer to trains bound South and West.
Added TO this transient travel the thousands
of New Workers who believe the hot weather IS
nearly at end and return with comfort to
their homes.
The travel OF the summer just ending said

they travel. they all travel. Whole families leave
their homes for some period. however short. When
there are hard times the railroads feel 1t first.

a big rush of this class of patronage is evident.
The uptown hotels report tremendous bust
ness due not only to through passengers unable to
fnd train accommodations to distant parts but
also to great influx of Southern merchants and

ness Immediately set at rest the numerous and
persistent rumors which have been current for a
week
From Pttsbure a denial received yesterday
of the report that the Carnegie company intended
to buy up Il number of small furnaces. A di-
rector OF the company expressed the belief that
the story was started enhance the value OF pI,
iron. and to create demand for it. Such action
as the purchase of wornout blast furnaces of
small capacty II declared was foreign to the
policy of the Carnegie organization. Two wears
ago" the authority referred to quoted as saw

double in price, owing to the demand, the whole
situation was discussed. The subject of buyinr
additional stacks. which could have done for
a song preached. but set aside as mprac-
icable. II agreed that If money was to be
invested in furnaces they should be furnaces of
greater capacity than those already built with
more modern facilities. In the face OF the big de-

EXPLANATION BY SECRETARY HAY OF THE
MODUS VIVENDI


MODUs VIVENDI
Seattle, Wash, Sept 6.-The miners of the Porcu-
pine District. Alaska. have received from Secretary
Hay definite assurances that this Government
foregoes no part of its right and power 10 protect
its citizens in the Porcupine Creek region whether
they be temporarily within American or British
Jurisdiction. in the full enjoyment OF all rights and
privileges which they had before the modus vvendi
was concluded and to that their freedom of
access and exit with their goods. is unreason-
ably impeded"
This announcement from Mr. Hay is the result
or a petition 70 President Mckinley from hun
dred and forty American miners in the Porcupine
country who complained of being brought within
the territory and under the laws of the Dominion
OF Canada and especially protested against
location of the boundary line along the Klehnl
River, by which American miners were forced 10
enter British territory in carrying supplies their
camps.
The reply of Secretary Hay discusses the whole
proposition at considerable length. He assures the
miners that the modus Vivendi is merely tenn
porary proposition, to be abrogated without preju-
dice to either party when permanent settlement
Of the boundary dispute is decided upon; that I'm
the time the rights of all miners temporarily
brought within Canadian control will be relgtously
protected and that miners desiring to carry goods
through the disputed territory will permitted to
do so without unjust interference from the Cana
dian customs officials
