WASHINGTON, December 6,--Rep-

DISCUSS THE MESSAGE.
President and His Advisers Consider
His Forthcoming COmmunica-
ton to Congress.

Washington, Oct. 26.-All members
were present at the meeting of the
cabinet Friday. Very little business
of importance was transacted, but
there was a general discussion of
matters pertaining to different de-
partments. The president discussed
various features Of his forthcoming
message to congress and also ap-
pointments that are to be made with
in a short time.
The consultations between the presi-
dent and his cabinet officers were espe-
cially full owing to the decision which
President Roosevelt has reached to
write all of his own message to con-
gress and to do it on original lines.
Heretofore the secretary of state has
written that portion covering foreign
relations, and the other cabinet Off
GERS each has contributed a chapter on
his respective department. The presi-
dent has determined to do away with
this detailed statement of the affairs
Of each department. He will devote
his message to only such topics as he
chooses to lay particularly before the
attention Of congress. leaving the re-
ports Of the cabinet officers to acmafnt
congress with the details Of admins
tration.

MINE DISASTER.
Explosion of Gas i'm "A Pennsylvania
COlllery Kills Five Men
Nine Injured.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. ga terrific
explosion of gas occurred in the But
tonwood mine of the Parrish Coal COM
pany, situated one mile south of this
city, late Friday afternoon, which
caused the death of five men and the in
jury of nine others. The killed are.
Ebenezer Williams, first assistant
foreman; Conner Williams, second as
sistant foreman; Thomas Guest, com
pany hand; Thomas Price, track layer;
W. S. Phillips, inspector. Directly
after the explosion occurred a number
of rescuers, at the risk of their lives,
entered the mine, filed with dangerous
after damp, and brought out the bodies
of the dead and injured.
So far as can be learned, the explo-
sion was caused by the carelessness
of one of the Hungarian laborers, who
was injured. He opened his safety
lamp while at work in his chamber.
This caused a small body of gas to ex-
plode, which however did not injure
the men or cause any damage. The
explosion was heard, however, by the
foreman and his assistants, who
rushed into the chamber, only to en-
counter another larger body of gas.
which had accumulated from the first
explosion. The second explosion wa,
of such force that It hurled the men
in all directions. The bodies of the
dead were badly mangled.

TRADE REVIEW.

New York, oct. ar G. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review OF Trade says. with mills

a rule, and many contracts alIGady run
ming far into 1902, there is no occasion for
anxiety regarding the indus trial situa-
tion, Johbers are still urgently asking

able goods Is checked by the hardness Of
low temperatures, which Is extremely for
tunate in many cases where makers have
been unable to fill orders according TO speci-
fcations Prices of commodities rule firm
anc collections are satisfactory, even
southern payments coming forward
promptly now that the tardy cotton crop
has begun to move freely. Each week the
situation as TO iron and steel becomes more
encouraging, orders now running TO the
middle of 1902 in many finished products.
Despite the extensive addition to pro-
ductive capacity last year there is still
much work in progress or preparation,
promising many new plants ready to start
next year The feature Of the week was
the placing OF enormous orders for steel
rails, practically assuring another record
breaking output.
Failures for the week numbered in the
United States A0, against 205 last year, and
70 in Canada. against IS last year"
Bradstreets says: THE first rush Of
autumn wholesale trade is over and atten-
ton Is now attracted to the movement of
staple goods into the channels Of consump-
ton. Despite the smaller movement Of
grain, and, up TO this week, the lighter
movement of cotton, so heavy Is the vol
ume of business Offered the railroads Of the
country that complaints of car shortage
come from all parts OF the country, notably
for iron ore and Steel lumber, grain and
coal. In the Goa! trade the shortage Is
marked, because the anthracite tonnage Is
very heavy, being estimated at 55,VJO,GOO. or
one-iiith larger than a year ago. Whole
sale and jOhbirg trade generally is charac-
leriZtd as fair to moderate the country
over. y fair recorder business is noted in the
northwest, but trade generally Is waiting
the movement of goods from retailers
hands. Collections are generally good eX-
cept at the south, where the slower move
ment Of cotton has tended to retard BUSH
ness As for some weeks past, the iron and
steel trade returns the best reports, and
these good reports are being prolonged to
an extent which has rarely been wit
messed"
