AN INTERESTING QUESTION.

A question that is attracting some
attention is whether the United States
Steel Corporation has the right to re-
move one of its plants from Mckees-
port, Pa, to another location where
the advantages for manufacturing are
more satisfactory. 1t has been stated
in our dispatches. that the United
States Steel Corporation intends to re-
move it's w. Devices Wood plant from
there, the reason of course being
that the strikers seem to have
control of that town-so much of the
control that it is easier to maintain
strike there than at some other places
where the United States Steel Corpor-
alton has mills.
1t is not known that an effort will
be made to prevent the removal of the
mill, but it is stated that the holders
of McKeesport bonds take the position
that there is no legal right to remove
1t. Their position is that they bought
the municipal bonds of the city with
the tacit understanding that the mill
would not be disturbed. and that it
would not be closed except under ex-
traordinary circumstances. If the mill
were to be permanently closed or re-
moved a large number of workmen
would have to go elsewhere for work.
Therefore McKeesport real estate
would decline and the bondholders
might not be able to collect either the
principal or interest of their bonds.
Al frct thouUhf AZ would Seem ae if
the holders of the municipal bonds
would not have any claim on the own
ers of any one of the manufacturing
plants of the town, but, after all, is
there not a sort of tacit understand
ing, amounting almost, if not quite. to
a contract, between the mill owners
and charlottesville mill owners
agreeing with those who bought the
bonds that they would do all they
could to make the town prosperous?
| The mill owners certainly held out
| some sort of promise to the bond
| holders respecting the bonds. They
| did not give notice that they would re-
McKeesport that did not suit them.
They let It be understood that their
mill was a permanent institution. 1t
was on such an understanding as this
| that the present holders bought the
| McKeesport bonds. The question is, of
course, a new one. and all of the equity
and justice is not on the side of the
United States Steel Corporation, though
the law may be.

u.vASA.s HEALTH RECORD.

The health authorities of Havana are
proud of that city's health record. For
the month of July the death rate was
lower than that of some American
cities. 1t was only 24.99 per 1000.
And there were only four cases OF
yellow fever, one of which proved fatal.
That is the best yellow fever record in
the city's history. Two of the cases
were those Of children of Cuban par
entage. The children had never been
out of Cuba. Havana physicians do
not diagnose cases of this kind as yell
low fever, and, in fact, the disease Is
quite different from that which is
cIassed as yellow fever in adults. The
present Board of Health, however, Is
calling everything yellow fever which
bears a resemblance to that disease.
According to statistics furnished by
Chief Sanitary Officer Gorgas, the max
imum number of deaths from yellow
fever in July, since 1889, was 16S, in
1897: the minimum, in 1899; average
70.45. As already stated, there has been
but one death from the disease this
year.
But DIR. Gorgas says that the real
change which has taken place in Ha-
vana in respect to yellow fever is bet
ter shown by taking the statistics for
the four months of April, May, June and
July, the y-Aow fever season, really
beginning April In 1897. during these
four months, there were SOL deaths.
This year there was but one death,
and, as already pointed out, that one
was not, in the opinion of expert Ha-
vana physicians, a victim of yellow
fever.
In view of the fact that there are es-
timated to be 10000 non-immunes in
Havana it must be admitted that there
is some ground for thinking that 1t Is
possible to rid that city entirely of the
dreaded disease. There has been some
yellow fever this season at Santiago de
las Vegas, and it is understood that
several cases from that place succeeded
in getting into Havana 1t is the
opinion of the chief sanitary inspector
that there will be no great amount of
yellow fever in the city this year. And
it is to be hoped that the city viii never
have another epidemic of 1t.

A CURIOUS STATE OF AFFAIRS.

A few weeks ago there was a very
interesting discussion in the newspa-
pers as to who sent the famous dis
patch to Admiral Dewey. telling him to
find the Spanish fleet in the waters
of the Philippines and capture or de-
stroy 1t. None of the officers of the
navy department could tell who wrote
1t. Secretary Long said that he was
of the opinion that he wrote it, and
was the author of 1t. If we are not
mistaken there were other claimants
for the honor of being it's author.
Now there is a discussion as to who
wrote the dispatch which Admiral
Sampson sent TO the navy department
announcing the naval victory of San
tiago. 1t is said that Admiral Samp-
thority says that IL was written by
Lieutenant Commander Sidney A.
Staunton, though no proof is offered
of the correctness of this statement.
Probably there will be other claim
ants for the honor before the discus
a little curious that things are so
loosely done in the navy department
that it is not known who the writer's
of the most important dispatches are
dispatches that contain orders calcu-
lated to have a powerful influence on
the geography and history of the
world? The general impression is that
when the country is passing through
troublous times those at the head of
the departments of the government are
so calm and courageous that there is
little if any danger of mistake being
made. But the disclosures respecting
the foregoing dispatches seem to indi-
cate that the naval authorities were so
excited and confused during the inter-
esting periods of the Spanish American
war that they kept no record of some of
the most important events.

There is no man on the Supreme

tie good natured fun at the expense of
the lawyers who come before him
more than Justice William E. Dickey of
Brooklyn, relates the New York Times.
To begin with. Justice Dickey has a

this in itself frequently causes new

yers who appear before him to tremble
in their shoes. A fledgling attorney re-

it has been prepared" said Justice
Dickey in his Edouard de Reszeke-like
tones.

deeply embarrassed, and finally asked
in sheer desperation:

An incident, which sounds a note of
warning to those husbands who are ac-

CURED in New York the other night.
1t was getting along towards 2 o'clock
in the morning when Charles Ray tried
this plan. When his wife hailed him
from the sanctity of her bedroom he
was so overcome with contrition-and
maybe with something else-that he
could not respond to the wifely appeal,
and she grabbed a revolver from the
stand near the head of her bed and
fred four shots. Her aim was a bit
unsteady, for none of the shots took
effect. Now Ray is swearing that If
he is ever induced to stay out beyond
his accustomed hour. which he doesn't
regard as probable, he will make all
the noise he can as he comes up the
stairs.
