Good for Railroads.

Chicago. Aug. 20.-J. NJ. Dixon, who
has returned from an extensive tour of
observation in Alaska, tells an inter-
esting story of railroad earnings and
projects in that country. He says:
Both freight and passenger traffic in
Alaska are heavy and are destined to
become much greater. Freight there
last season brought $1,000 per ton for
transporting it thirty miles. owing to
the great difficulty and usually, the
impossibility of travelling over the
country. At no time was the price of
freight less than 5000 per ton. So 1t
may easily be seen that why SO many
of the railroad companies here in the
states are having officers of their roads
go up there, ostensibly for health, but
really to look over the country. They
return and urge, with the greatest en-
ergy. the building of the new line.
TT is no wonder that, In view of the
enormous amount of profit to be made,
there are now at least five good sized
projects well along for the building of
many miles of track In Alaska. The
enormous success of the White Pass
and Yukon railroad, which. tho 1t cost
more than $4,0O0.00O to build and equip,
has paid big dividends, is proof of the
need of railroads in Alaska and their
earning capacity. This line is only 115
miles long. The same thing Is proved
by the Wild Goose railroad to Nome
City, which has been bonanza to its
owners"

IIsthmian Trouble Not Cause Of It's
Present Maneuvers.
Nantucket. Mass, Aug. 2o.-The North
Atlantic squadron has received orders to
sail today for Hampton roads. All pre-
parations for the continuance of the
maneuvers at this place have been
countermanded and the vessels Of the
squadron are already getting up steam,
preparatory to their departure. While
the exact reason for the change of plaNs
is not known. it is believed here that the
trouble in South America has something
to do with it,
Washington. Aug. 20.-It was stated
at the navy department that the North
Atlantic squadron would be ordered to
Hampton Roads even If their had been
no disturbances in South Africa. 1t is
said that the target practice q be con-
Quoted much better at Hampton roads
than at any other place.
The effect of the movement, however,
will be to place the vessels of this
squadron about day and a half nearer
to the scene of the southern difficulties
than they would be il they remained or
the New England coast.

Two Big Plants Of the National
Tube Company Completely
Tied Up.
Action Of the Men in Continental
and Pennsylvania Mills En-
courales Shaifer.
Steel Men Able to Open One
More Mill --- The Situation
Today.

Pitsburg, Aug. 20.-The tie-up of the
Continental and Pennsylvania plants of
the National Tube Company, of this
city, was completed during the night
and early hours Of the morning The
machinists and a few other employees of
4he Pennsylvania works, to the number,
Df about sixty. have not gone out, but
otherwise the two properties are silent
and deserted. The Pennsylvania men
went first, quitting at o'clock last
night, in response to the call of the or
Z ganizers of the American Federation of
Labor, who have been working among
them for several weeks. Then in large
numbers they surrounded the Continent
fal works at Frankstown mad called on
the workers there to quit and Join the
strikers. AT midnight large number of
the Continental men dropped their tools
and by this morning the last man had
left the place. Shutting down of two
plants adds about 1900 men to the force
of strikers. The success of the labor or
ganizers in getting the men out cheered
the other strikers to high pitch The
officials of the National Tube Company
would not discuss the strike beyond say
ing they had been keenly disappointed
fhruout the strike by the attitude of
their men, and hope In time they will
come to their senses and come back
Another steel official when told of the
strike said: Let the good work go on.
Brother Shaffer is very rapidly getting

the quicker it will break up. Just wait
until he begins to hustle money for
strike benefits. / hope Chicago does go
out. The steel managers announced
another mill on today at the Clark
mills, and the property is now running
In full. Other properties they said were
cunning today as yesterday. They de-
MED the story that there had been a
s break at Duquesne during the night.
The strikers claim they have again Grip
q pied the Lindsay and McCutcheon mills
by taking some non-union men and also
capturing several skilled men on their
way into the plant. but the managers
) say they are working one mill as usual
and will have couple more mills on be-
i fore the end of the week.
The explosion Of some railroad torpe-
does at Monessen early this morning
created some excitement and large
crowds gathered on the streets and near
the steel mills. There were large crowds
around the newly crippled tube works

cal strike leaders express themselves as
being fully satisfied with the progress of

ATTENDANCE RATHER SLIM.
Only 25 Democrats Registered Las,

Today.
Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Aug. 2O.-With the demo-
cratic state convention slated for to-
morrow visitor at any one of the Des
Moines hotels last night would not have
felt himself crowded. In fact, the pros
pect even today is disappointing to those
democrats who have fondly imagined
that because some republicans have
shown the flush of anger there is to be
an immediate and general revival of
sentiment in favor of the democratic
party. The advance guard of the con-
vention is very small. Not to exceed
twenty-five democrats from out of town
had registered by midnight last night.
The trains by noon today were well
filled and the town was putting on the
appearance of convention time. The
chief talk is in regard to platform, tho
this is always with some reference, at
least, to the prospective candidate for
governor 1t is recognized by all, at
least all of the early arrivals, that the
candidate must fit the platform, or there
will be no headway made this year. 1t
will not do any good to set Cato Sells UP
on populistic platform, nor to make
Gen. Weaver the candidate If the Ohio
plan is to be followed in the platform.
The members OF the state committee are
generally arguing for a conservative
platform. Even those who are avowed
