VIENNA, Nov. 22.-After several months
negotiations, the Austrian and Hungarian
iron and steel industries have succeeded
in forming a gigantic combination COM
nrising twenty-three separate establish

supervised by central board, which regu-

combine includes practically every i'm

monarchy, such as the production Of raw
iron. bars, plates, rails, nails and WIRE
The agreement will be effective Tor ten

COSTLY ORE.DOCK FIRE
WISCONSIN CENTRAL RAILWAY SUF-
FERs A LOSS OF $5OO,OO0.
Dozen Ffremen and DOckmen Carried
Into the Water with a Tram
way and Drowned.

ASHLAND, Wis, Nov. 22.-The Wiscon-
sin Central ore dock was destroyed by fire
to-day. The loss is S5O0,000 In falling the
dock carried with it number of firemen
and dockmen, and a number of lives were
lost. lust how many probably will not be
known for several days. A number of bad
Iy injured firemen were rescued from the
burning ruins.
The fire caught presumably from poa'
unloading lumber across the slip, and be-
fore the firemen arrived the entire DOCK
half a mile long, was in flames. An en-
gine was run on the tramway as near TO
the fire as it could get and half hundred
men began tearing apart the timbers con-

it from falling with the dock Suddenly
the dock gave way, falling with crash
and carrying with it 200 feet of the tram

hundred persons were under the tramway.
but most of them escaped with slight in
juries.
AS the broken tramway and the burning
dock fell, fully dozen men were seen to
go down. The wreck fell into twenty feet
of water and it will be impossible to re-
cover the bodies for some time. A large
force of men is engaged in effort to re-
cover the remains of the dead firemen.
When the fire began the upper dockman
was cut off from the shore and lumber
boat put off to rescue him. Another man
in running to the shore, fell into an ore
pocket and his companions were compelled
to leave him to his fate. The fire is still
raging and Murray's sawmill is in special
danger. Mowaat's mill is also threatened.

prelates OF the Christian world-Mgr. Ber-

Mgr. Bernard O'Rslly. known chiefly as
the Pope's historian, was born September
q, 1916. in the parish OF Island Bddy. near
Westport, ireland. His father had Joined
the French army. The Irish rebellion broke
out, that uprising which proved the char

O'ReIlly recalled his son to Ireland. For

filed the ancient rule Of q perfect woman.
Calm in temperament, full OF wisdom and
culture, she was renowned in her time as
the type of gentle womanhood. Her maiden
name was Eleanor OMalley, and she
claimed Hneal descent from the Kings Of
Ireland.
When bernard ORefly was scarcely moro
than a baby he lost this devoted mother,
who had implanted IN him a positive zeal
Tor learuins. and although his father mar
ried q second time, the stepmother never
iHterfered with the boys impulse for re-
lgion and patriotism. In May, 1899. he was
sent TO Quebec to the seminary which, chief
ly through his name and efforts, has de-
veloped into the LavaTle University. There
he was graduated. receiving the highest
honors, and in Quebec was ordained a
priest, serving for six years in St. Patrtck's
Cathedral. at the end of which time he was
appointed pastor IN the town OF Sherbrooke.
at that date peopied. chiefly by English PEN
sioners and disaffected Americans.
Working among these unhappy people, It
occurred to Mgr. O'Reiny to start a col

idea. widespread as the society Is to-day,
It prospered so well that now there are
more than ninety parishes in the society

On leaving sherbrooks, Mgr. o'ReIl1y de-
