ties is expected to take place on the
18th Of August"
The date mentioned is the anniyer-
sarv of the relief of the legatloners by
the international forces. The Russian
proposal referred to is understood In
substance, to be an increase from 3
per cent to 10 per cent Of the customs
duties which the Chinese government
may collect at the ports from foreign
countries.
II is further understood that the in
crease Is not to take effect at once
and perhaps not at all. II will depend
uron the resources Of China under the
ting system. Nhis proposition Is be
lio,ed to be much less Objectionable
to Great Britain and JaDan as well as
TO the United States than the original
proposition 10 make an absolute and
immediate increase of the customs du-
ties to the extent proposed.

THE WIND CAVE

Once More Opened For Public In
spection-Will Try to Prevent
Vandalism.
WASHINGTON, May 4.-Commis-
sioner Hermann, of the general land Of
flee, has instructed the special agent Of
the interior department to reopen 1.-The
wind cavep in the Black Hills of South
Dakota to inspection by the public. The
cave belongs to the federal government
and comprises about l 900 acres. 1t was
withdrawn by order of January 16, 900.
No depredations or acts Of trespass OF
any Ind will be permitted upon or
within the premises, no specimens will
be allowed to be taken away by tour
lists, and no fees or money consedera-
tions will be permitted TO be charged or
received by any one for the privilege OF
visiting the cave.
Wind cave is so called on account or
the strong rushing current OF air
through the entrance Several hundred
feet below the surface level is reached
from which miles of arched avenues
radiate a every direction, embracing a
succession of imposing chambers. The
ceilings are pendant with gems of sta
lactfte formation, while around lie
walls in inches carved out by the ac-
ton of the water are specimens of
deity wrought statuary, fragile foliage,
cnaste columns of the most elaborate
architecture and forms resembling birds
and animals.
Vandalism has been responsible for
mucn injury to the beauties Of the place.
The withdrawal over a year ago was
designed to prevent recurrence of this
evil in the future.

Control of the Coal.

American Manufacturer.
The announcement few days ago at
Wheeling, through the courts, that trou-
BILE has appeared among some OF the
promoters OF the new Empire Coal Com
pany, may be taken simply as the ad-
vance notice of further trouble that VIII
shortly appear among the foremost men
in the coal industry, especially in the
Pittsburg district. Press reports orig
inally were to the effect that the En-
pire Coal Company projectors were
ready with practically unlimited capt.
tai to institute opposition in the trade
to the movements o. the Pittsburg Coal
Company. For time, short time,
that statement was accepted as fact be-
cause there were many reasons why an
other coal company might enter the
trade anu fairly divide the business in
portions of the country with the Pitts
burg Coal company.
Later developments have removed the
belieI that there is to be serious, legiti-
mate, opposition to the local corpora
ton and the hopes of some of the larg-
est consumers have vanished. There
are indications that the proposed En-
pire Coal Company may be absorbed by
the Pittsburg Coal Company, and all at
tempt at opposition removed. And in
that Connection there are curb and club
talks of certain official changes in the
Pittsburg Coal Company that will as
tonish those who make observations
from the outside. If some apparently
reliable statements are even in part &C
curate, a minority contingent in the
Pittsburg Coal Company has taken on a
weight that is said to be sufficient to
wag the dog. If all that is rumored in
that direction is true, the management
of the Pittsburg Coal Company will
take new shift. However any of these
curb or club rumors develop, there will
be little if any change for the benefit
for the consumer.

Interesting Information.

Ohio Valley Manufacturer
The Waynesburg Independent has col
lected some interesting facts concerning
the recent coal speculations in Greene
county. The total acreage sold up to
January LIST is 10S,495. while the value
of the coal land assessed separately is
placed at $2.462,13O. This shows the
valuation only of the coal that has &C
tually changed hands, the taxes on
which are being paid by owners other
than the owners of the SURFACE. Almost
all of the coal that has been bought is
now the property OF persons residing
out Of the county. At the assessed
value and at the tax rate of four mills
on the dollar, the amount now being
paid into the treasury of Greene county
by coal owners is S9.S4S.52 The roof
formation of the Greene county coal is
such as to allow the driving of cham
bers and entries to width of 80 feet or
more The thickness of the PittsDurg
vein varies from seven to eleven feet.
With mining machine capable of
knocking down $50 tons in a given time
in the seven foot strata, 800 tons could
be knocked down in the eleven-foot
thickness. A seven foot vein is capable
of producing 5000 commercial tons per
acre, while an eleven foot vein Will pro-
duce over 1900 tons per acre. The
seven foot vein is thus seen to be can
able of yielding over 100000 bushels per
acre

among the industries here. All nave
been busily engaged, with bright pros
poets for the future.

working steadily all week, with all the

down during the week, but will be
resumed Monday. The work of build
ing the three other mills is progressing
satisfactorily.
The spence Baggs Co. is working ev-
cry day, and they report business very
good for this season of the year, as the
spring is generally dull for stove bust
ness. The foundation for their new
mould room is almost completed.
The work on the construction of the
new Laughlin sheet mill is being push
ed rapidly, and during the last week
they commenced laying the brick. Much
work was done ON the foundations for
the mills.
The Laughlin tin plant was busy all
week in all departments, and it is I'M
derstood they have plenty of orders
ahead. The work on the new addition
is steadily gong on, and each week
makes considerable of showing, but
it will probably require two more
months of nard work before the mill
will be ready for operation.
me Stanton Heater works is busily
engaged, and nave a number of orders
ahead.
Hipkins' Novelty Mould Works is
working every day.
The West Virginia Glass Company
was busy all week except on circus day,
when the boys laid off and took in the

The Wheeling Creek Coal Company

sive improvements during the summer,
which will make the mine a modern
one in every way.
The coal strike on this side of the
river, in sub-district No. 5, has been
settled, and all but two mines are work
ing. The two that are idle will prob
ably resume Monday, as it is thought
the trouble will be adjusted by that
time.
