Ny Comrades = It becomes my
painful duty to announce to you the
death of your vice-commander, true
friend and counsellor, Major Ceth
Smith Land who, too, has crossed
the river and rests in the shade upon
the other shore. He was for many
years the devoted commander and
organizer of this camp, and his de7o
ton and zeal never tagged to the
end. AS g member of the Pension
Board he pressed with untiring in
terest the honest claims of our hum
bic poor and cheered and comforted
them with material aid. The tidings
of his death has carried sorrow and
foreboding to the lowly cottages OF
our land
We shall grievously miss him at
our reunions; his genial presence, his
cordial greeting, his fraternal clasp
of the hand But, my comrades, as
the years roll by we shall be called
upon more frequently to pause by
the fresh made grave of him who has
at last succumbed to that grim mon
ster he faced upon hundred battle
fields for love of home and country.
In testimony Of our love of our de-
parted brother and grief at his death,
it is ordered that the usual badge Of
mourning be worn by this camp for
thirty days and that page in our
minute book be inscribed to his
memory.

There is joy in store for Eph Kelly,

The committee met to consider the

two men TO guard the city prisoners
while they were making City creek

brother-in-law of the chief, and Joseph
D. Bush. The whole matter Of this
policy of working prisoners was soon
under discussion When the expense OF
keeping these prisoners at work was
footed up the gentlemen OF the commit
tee were alarmed. They found out that
il would cost the city at least $500 per
month, and that there would not be
anywhere near on adequate return. The
expense is as follows:
Two guards, $50 per month
Transportation, ST per day.
Extra cost of meals, 10 cents per head

GATES STILL PRESIDENT.
No Change in Management of Ameri-
can Steel & Wire Company

New York, April 2O-A special meet
ing of the directors of the American
Steel & Wire company was held today
in the New York Offices of the COM
pany. The chief purpose of the meet
ing, according TO reports. is TO take
some action relative to the recent clos
ing of twelve of the company's mills
by order of the chairman of the execu-
tive committee, John W. Gates.
The meeting was scheduled to begin
at IL o'clock. At that time Mr.. Gates
and three or four directors of the COM
pany were present, but President Lam
bert, who arrived from Chicago last
night, had not put in an appearance.
There were a number of newspaper
men present when Mr.. Gates reached
the Office, and he requested them to
leave. He had nothing to say regard
ing the rumors concerning his rela-
tons with the company.
I've stopped guessing" he said. ct
find that some of my recent guesses
have been bad, so I've decided to say
nothing"
When Mr.. Gates was seen at the close
of the meeting he would only say:
There has been no change in the man.
agement of the company"
clined to say anything as to the action
taken. Later, when Umor spread to
the effect that they and Thomas Dolan
Of Philadelphia Rad resigned from the
board, Mr.. Seligman said: I'VE have
not resigned, and the meeting was adj
journed TO May II
The presence at the meeting of Rob-
ert Bacon and President Gary of the
Federal Steel company caused some
speculation. Mr.. Bacon is a director
of the Federal Steel company. He re-
fused TO talk about the object of his
visit to the meeting today, and Presi-
dent Gary was equally reticent
Another director of the Federal Steel
company was seen and asked TO give
his views as to the possibility of a CO.
alitiOn of interests of the two compan-
les. He said that so far as he knew
there would be no closer relations be-
tween the Federal Steel company and
the American Steel & Wire company
than exist at present.

Apart from the disturbances in spec

measure OF distrust regarding prices
that are maintained by the great COM
DlnatlonS which may for the present
time tend to deter buying. In the iron
business the formal reductions were
almost wholly anticipated in actual
sales. Some urgent and important con-
tracts have been made, including that
Ior thek New York tunnel, requiring
$1,000 tons at prices not stated, but it

IS no room for doubt that greatly re-

high prices asked. which the makers
declare unavoidable until prices of

Boston in three weeks have been 81 152
