UP-TO-DATE INSTITUTION
Is the Elliott Commercial school at
1918 Market -.reet-SOme of It's
DeDart ments,

1918 Market -.reet-Some of Its
Departments.
An entirely up-to-date and excellent
ly equipped institution of learning is
the Elliott Commercial School, at 1918
Market street. The school is not only
thoroughly equipped for all branches of
commercial work, but the faculty is
composed of men who are not only
highly educated, but they have had
experience in the branches which they
teach. Prof. w. B. Elliott, the propri-
etor OF not only this instition, but of
the Capitol City Commercial School, of
Charleston, and the Elliott Commercial
School OF Fairmont, believes In en-
ploying teachers who have won for
themselves a national reputation and
are experienced in the field of the same
class OF work as they give instructions
in.
TheElliott is the only school in this
section of the country who are con-
Quoting practical business Office work
In connection. By so doing they do
away to great extent with the diff
Guilty other business schools have in
placing their graduates in business
positions on a footing with experienced
employees. In a large room recently
acquired by the school is the CONNER
clal department. Here most of the
commercial classes are heard In the
room are banking fixtures equal to
those of any business banking house
in the city. Here students are given a
through practical course in the branch
OF commercial studies they have taken
up. The very practicability of the in
structiCn recommends a course in the
institution and ansures to the student
as practical knowledge OF the bust
ness as if he had entered some bank
and worked his way gradually upward
The typeWriting room is also one of
the features. The machines provided
by the school are all of high grade.
They are not all of the same make, so
that the student in stenography can
accustom himself to all kinds of ma
chimes. The equipment of this depart
ment is worth $4,000.
The fame of the excellency of this
school in all its departments has gone
abroad, and the result is that the roll
book contains more students many
times over than have ever before at
tended an institution in the State.

MKEESPART, Pa, August 1.-Two
persons were probably fatally burned
and a dozen more or less severely in
jured as the result Of an explosion an
a pleasure yacht in the M~onongahela
river near Peters creek this morning.
Robert Crlswell and Harry Osborne
both Of this place, were SO badly scald-
ed and burned all over the body that
they will probably die from the effects
of their injuries.
Among the other passengers scaided
are Steve Broski, w. N. Campbell,
James r. Smith. j. E. Henry and Ed
ward Miller, all Of McKeesport. None
of these. will die, though all are ser
iously burned.
OF the eighteen passengers aboard
the yacht, none escaped burns.
The yacht Quail" was owned by w.
N. Campbell. She had just started on
a pleasure trip up the Monongahela
river, when two of the tubes OF the boil
er blew out and in an instant the entire
boat was e%nveloped in a cloud OF es-
Gaping steam and flames. All the pas
sengers jumped into the river and after
much trouble were rescued by campers
along the bank.

LONDON, August 11.-Lord Kitche-
per's proclamation at Pretoria had a
comfortable effect last week on the
stock exchange. Whether the more
hopeful spirit with which it vas re-
ceived was due to sentiment or to we'll
grounded reason, the future must de-
termine; but the immediate effect was
to improve prices somewhat. Another
hopeful factor was decidedly easy
money. Not only In London but in
New York and on the continent did
this condition prevail and on the con-
| tinent the provincial bourse rates were
all under az. Enough gold afloat and
coming In from the provinces to raise
the reserve of the Bank Of England
we'll over G25. 900. 900. New York ex-
| change was high and is likely to re-
main 30. Naturally there Is some eau
ton in discount circles in view of New
York's probable demand for gold for
the autumn crop movements; but 1t is
not believed that this drain will be
sufficient to raise London rates mater
tally.
The week witnessed the unusual spec
tacle of an improvement in home rails
and a decline in Americans. This
arose, on the one hand, from renewed
apprehension regarding the steel
stock, while on the other, the fact that
British railroad shares descended to
about the lowest figures were due to
reaction. The outlook for home traf-
fc is exceedingly gloomy. The half
yearly statements of the railroads are
already in and show serious falling off
in the gross receipts in almost every
case, while the tremendously increased
working cost materially reduces divi-
dends. The managers confess that
they see no prospect of improvement
for years ahead, and there is a gen.
eral cry for retrenchment.
Retrenchment, however, seems to
mean only cheese pairing of wages
without any genuine reform in the an
tiquated method Of equipment. There
is a wide field for improvement in the
equipment of both freight and passen-
ger departments, and this fact combin-
ed with the present low price of stocks,
seems to offer a favorable opening for
American enterprise to do for the
steam roads what it is already doing
for the tramway lines.
So far as the steel stock is concern
| ed, there is a wide divergence of opin-
ion with reference to the relative
| strength of the men and the employ
ers. There is also a plentiful supply
of misinformation as to the American
labor situation in general. The only
unanimity Of belief is in the convic-
ton that the stock is certain to have
a disastrous effect upon American in
dustrial interests.
Consequently, the outlook for bust
ness in American section of the stock
| exchange is not promising.
