Secretary u. y. Atherton, of the
board Of trade, has returned from his
visit to New York, where he went
Sunday, for the purpose of seeing Off
cials of the Ingersol- Sergeant Drill
company, who are going to move their
big plant from Easton. and who
would be willing to settle here il sat
isfactory inducements were held ont.
The board of trade is very anxious
70 bring this desirable industry here,
and will make the strongest efforts to
reach that end. cities from all over
the country are after the plant. 1t will
employ two thousand men, and is
one of the biggest concerns of its kind
in the country.
Secretary Atherton saw Mr.. Saun-
ders, the vice president of the COM
pany, at the New York office. ana also
met Mr.. Swan, one of The officials
who has been constituted a committee
of one to receive all applications from
cities and meet representatives of the
various chambers of commerce regard
ing the matter Messrs. Saunders and
swan informed Secretary Athcrton
that the one absolut" essential, with
out which no proposition would he
carry with 1t site of one hundred
acres. The company is willing to pay
for the land but insists that it be level
and on the line of two railroads,
"We can give you "A splendid lot Of
thirty acres, with plant already erect
ed" said Mr.. Athcrton, but the Inger-
soil people insisted that they wanted
O. hundred acre site. Their shops at
ipt "a
proved TO be entirely insufficient. and
the company officials declare that far
more room is needed. Fifteen hun
dred men are now employed, but the
new plant will be started with two
thousand, and it is expected that be-
fore long this number will be material
ly increased.
The company deals exclusively with
the manufacture of steel drills, prin-
cipally rock drills. 1t has numerous
Scranton machinists among its men
at present. a large number having
left here for Easton during the strike.
The date of removal of the shops
has not yet been decided upon, but
the transfer is not likely to be made

FIRE IN NEW YORK.
Flames Do Half Million Dollars
DAMAGE,

sL - EH EI
New York, Nov. 3o.-Half a miiiioon dol
lars is the estimate of the loss by a fire
last evening in the vicinity Of Ninth
street and the East river. Several fire..
men were hurt, but none seriously.
The blaze started In the plant of W.
e. Uptegrove & Bros, manufacturers OF
boxes, veneers and flne woodwork, and
this firm was the principal sufferer. One
Of Its buildings was a seven-story struc-g
ture, while those surrounding it were one
story buildings. All of Uptegrove & Bros
mill was destroyed. From the Standard.
Oil ~company's depot on Eleventh street
thousands Of gallons of oil were drained
into the river to prevent a great explo-
sion and resulting confiagration.
After the fire was thought to be under
ontro It broke out again and spread to
the works Of the Mutual Gas mpany.
This outbreak was caused by a fireman
dropping a burning window into the street.
The street was flooded with water on
which was a thick coating OF oil. This
ignited and the fame leaped into the gas
company's property.
The fire then turned back across the
street, and the immense store OF lumber
owned by Hegemeyer & Sons was ignited.
1t comprised some $4,000, 900 feet Of valu-
able woods. THE lumber yards of ]. M.
Saulpaugh were also reached by the
flames and great damage done.
Fire Chief Croker estimated at a late
hour last night that the total damage
would approach 81 1000, 900. He estimated
William f.. Uptegrove g. Bros loss at
$3.50. OOO. .

GOV. GEER TO VAN SAINT
Oregon Executive Favors Holding
Conference Suggested.

Salem, Ore, Nov. Ex-Governor Geer has
replied to Governor Van SAINT of Mime
sofa on the %latter's request for views on
the absorption Of the Northern Pacific
and Great Northern railways by the
Northern Securities mpan Governor
Geer said:
Oregon has no laws regulating combi-
nations and none regulating freight rates.
Passenger fares are limited to 4 cents per
mile, but two lines, the Northern Pacific
and Oregon Railroad and Navigation
companies, have voluntarily reduced the
rates to 8 cents. The Oregon Railroad
ard Navigation ornpany and Southern
Pacific company are making commend
able efforts toward the development OF
their respective territories and have be-
come a great help to the people,"
= Regarding consolidation, Governor Geel
avs
"Unlcss consolidation of railway com.
panies should be followed by increased
freight and passenger rates 1t would be
difficult to see where objection to it would
lie. If this result should follow it is a
matter within the power of the state
legislatures to control. 1t may prove IN
easier matter to regulate rates than to
pre- vent consolidation"
After commencing Governor Van SAINTS
efforts to enforce the laws Of his state,
Governor Geer says:
mo question in this country. either
present or future, is paramount to the one
of preserving unqucstioned the best inter-
csts Of those who are known as the COM
mon people. I would certainly favor hold
ing such a conference as you suggest. but
could not attend unless held on this coast.
which would perhaps not be feasible:" :

sci Destitute at UnaIaska.

Seattle, Wash, Nov. 2s.-Advicea
from the northwest bring news that the
long overdue schooner Ralph j.. Long,
from Nome, lies stranded at Unalaska
with lis passengers. The vessel is out
of food, the passengers have spent all
their money to obtain the absolute
necessities of life, and they now appeal
tor help to the war department.
L.. Frank Brown Of this city presented
a resolution to the Seattle chamber OF
commerce, reciting the facts in the case
and urging the necessity of immediate
/ for the passengers and crew. The
members of the. chamber. were unani-
nous in favor Of acting upon the mat
ter at once, and ar appeal will be made
to the authorities at Washington, ask
ing them to send a revenue cutter or
some other vessel to bring down the
starving people. The storekeepers at
Unalaska refuse to advance enough
provisions to allow the schooner to
reach Puget sound, and the passengers
are afraid5to venture out in a helpless
condition.
