Iowa Falls. Dec. 31.--Twelve mem
bers of the board of directors OF the
Des Moi1les, Iowa Falls s. Northern
railroad returned last evening on q
special train which was the first to en-
ter the city of Des Moines over this new
road. Thus the company secures the
special tax voted In aid of the road in
Nevada township in Story county, the
stipulation in the call for the election
being that the road must reach Des
Moines before January /, 1903. This
the company succeeded in doing with a
margin of forty eight hours. The
roads tracks enter the city about 400
feet and ait that point will be inter-
oepted by the new terminals that are
being constructed in Des Moines and
will be used by this and other lines.
The company now has ample time to
ballast and put the roadbed in first
class condition. The only other tax
voted in aid of the road is in Union
township, Story county, and under this
call the road must be completed by
July 4 next. Regular trains are now
running to Des Moines and as soon as
possible new schedule of train service
will be issued for handling passenger
and freight traffic between here and
and Des MoineS.

Boone, Dec. 31.-A practical joke all

of III. G. Ahrens, of this city. AS it is.
the boy is in bed suffering from a
great burn in his side. He, in company
with number of other boys, was at a
creek or pond skating, and had a fire
on the bank. He was standing near the
fire and was getting warmed prepara-
tory to going home. Some one came
up to him and started a conversation.
The Ahrens boy did not notice any
thing wrong, until he neared his home,
when he found his clothing on fire and
the right side of his body badly burned.
The other lad had cruelty put into the
Ahrens boys trousers pocket a live
coal. A doctor was summoned and this
afternoon he was resting much easier.

Union Men Not Agreed.

New York. Dec. 31.-The reports
made by Mr.. Mossley's commissioners
to the trades unions on the results of
their observations in the United States
contain more contradictions than points
of agreement, says the Tribune's Lon
don correspondent. The closet approach
to a common understanding is, the opin-
ion that the domestic demand for man
ufactures of all kinds in the United
States is so great that there is no inn
mediate prospect of the displacement of
British by American goods, either here
or in neutral markets. When the Amer
lean home trade falls off it is admitted
that the surplus products will be sent
to England and to neutral markets with
most damaging effect upon British
trade.

Bradstreet's Business Year Re-
view Shows United States
Wonderful Advance
PREVIOUS RECORDS SURPASSED
Unsuitable Home Demand for All Kinds
Of Materials Caused Neglect and
Therefore a shrinkase of Export
Trade-Industra Unrest Natural
Feature Of Prosperity.

! New York, Dec 31.--Bradstreet's re-
view for the business year to be issued
Saturday next will have the following:
ITO say that 1902 was the best year
this country has ever experienced,
while truthful enough in the main, does
not suggest fully the enormous strides
which the United States took in the
year just closed. Practically every
branch of ordinary trade and manu-
facture showed an increase above the
best of previous years, and yet this
not sufficient of itself to satisfy the
growing, it might even be termed in
satiable, demand for ali kinds Of mate
rails. In many cases the usual foreign
outlets for our products were, per-
force, neglected by American produc-
ers, who confined their efforts to sup-
plying insiseent domestic demand,
while in others foreign production was
called upon to reinforce domestic out
put, with the result that new currents
and channels were created in our for
eign trade. Our export trade, there
fore, shrunk, while our imports ex-
banded to unprecedented figures. The
railroads of the country, in their eff
forts to handle the business offered
them, suffered as never before from
congestion, and complaint of interfer-
ence with production and distributions
of the products of the farm, the mine,
the shops and the loom were practically
universal. Industrial unrest was nat
urally marked, as it always is in times
either of pros perity or of depression
ar A serious disorganization of some OF
ths country's basic industries resulted
for time. In many cases. however,
resort to extremes was avoided or rem
dered unnecessary. by liberal recog-
milton by employers Of changes in the
standard of living, and it is safe to say
two men obtained higher wages or had
their working time reduced without re-
sort to strikes for every one who actu-
ally quit work. Speculation, it Is true,
felt the checks imposed upon 1t by
short crops in the preceding year and
last, but. not least, by high rates for
money; but despite the fact that stock
market operations were only about
one half those of 1901, bank clearfngs,
those usually reliable guides of bust
ness, showed aggregates practically
equal to the hitherto unheard of totals
of 1901. Ali this was accnnaalisls<s5-
With q minimim OF friction, as reflected
in the forms Of business embarrass-
ments."

The woman threw q shawl from her
shoulders and slipped from q trembling
hand, blue with cold. an deliberately
Eckased wedding ring OF the style OF

Nystrom, in the office of the Iowa Fuel
Company at Ala Court street.
The man hesitated and then shook his
head. !.
Il would rather give you coal for
nothing. he said with some feeling.
please, sir. won't you let me have
lsome coal. We have none; take the
ring" and she fairly forced the trinker
Into the dealers fingers.
The woman explained they were new
In Sioux City and that while her hus-
band had work he had not yet received
send her some coal, but wouldn't take
the ring.
Gratitude flashed from the woman's
dark eyes and thanks were spoken. She
drew shawl about her face and
walked out into the northwest wind.
The next day her husband came to the
coal Office and paid for a half ton of
coal.
THAT isn't the only time people have
been in here wanting to pawn their
personal effects for some coal" said
the dealer.
'"The other day man came in here
I don't know who he was-and put up
a revolver to get something to burn. I
wasn't III, but my clerk took 1t and
sent him some coal.
'"rhey talk about the terrors of starv-
ing, but this winter I've come to be-
lieve that freezing is worse" continued
Mr. Nystrom, who, as county super
visor, has q good deal to do with the
city's poor.
The truth of the statement that the
coal dealers are swiping coal by the
carload lots from their competitors Is
for by other Sioux City coal
sellers.
One dealer said yesterday that by
paying a snug royalty he had secured
the promise OF 1000 tons for January
delivery. 1t will retail for about S12
per ton. This is almost as much coal
as has been received in Sioux City since
the elimination of the strike.
