LEOPARD DIED ON WAY.

II ever immigrants needed sleep II
is the crowd that came over on the
neutrality-suspicious. liner Pennsylvania,
which arrived at Hoboken to-day. They
had as company a collection of wild
animals consigned by Carl Hagenback
to the New York Geological Society
for recruiting the collection in Bronx
Geological Gardens.
There were Elk lions, two Bengal
tigers, an African leopard, a laughing
hyena, chetah, some jaguars, hogs from
many countries, all sorts OF sheep and
deer. and a fine collection OF Chinese
geese and mandarin ducks, to say moth

trip and this scared the others half to
death. The patient was removed to the
hospital when tho ship reached ouaran-
tine, and $50 of the storage passengers
who had been exposed, were sent TO
Hoffman Island. They Will have four
teen days to do nothing but sleep over
there. so that they can catch up their
lost maps.
The animals were purchased by WILL
lam T. Hornady, director Of the ZooloEi-
cal Society. who has been abroad on this
mission some weeks. There was one
stroke Of bad luck during the voyage.
A clouded leopard. one OF the rarest
alma in existence, died en- route.
There is only one in this country-at
the Philadelphia Zoo-and the animal
lovers were distracted when they heard
OF the loss, 1t is laid that there are
but few living anywhere, in or out Of
captivity. and 1t is feared that New
York will never get one. The animal
was skinned by Keeper Shippman. It is
not larger than a cat. and the spots are
so indistinct as to merge with the rest
OF the fur. From this characteristic Il
gets its name.
Among the lions was the one given TO
the Zoo by the little daughter of An
drew Carnegie. He Is known as the
hardest lion in the world. big Joe" Is
another fine speciman. He was making
enough noise on reaching this free coun-
try to indicate that he thoroughly APP

The animals are still in the vessels

carted with great care I othe Bronx.
There was also on the Pennsylvania
a consignment Of twenty-one barrels
OF Polar bear skins. They belong to
William Aegler, packer OF Arctic ex-
petitions. and are said to have been the
catch of the F%rithjof's crow when she
was hurrying to the rescue OF Evelyn
b. Baldwin. while ne was rescuing him

and given to natural museums. Others
are to be used az rugs for Mr.. Zlegler
and his friends to walk on.

she died.

The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1902-12-26

A striking evidence OF business activity
IN the United States at the present time Is
found In a compar.so OF pig iron statis-
tics OF the year just ending with those
OF earlier years, as compiled by the
treasury bureau OF statistics. Recently
published estimates Of the production OF
pig iron in the United States during the
calendar year 1907 put the total production
AT II 200. 600 tons This is an increase OF
nearly two million tons over last year.
and Is more than double the production
of 1895. three times that OF 1855. four times
that of 1881. elk times that OF 1873. eight
times that Of 1875 ten times that OF 1872
and twenty times that OF 1866. The steel
production of the year Is estimated at
Is. 900 900 tons. which Is practically 80 per
cent more than that OF 1900, nearly three
times as much as that OF 1896, ten times
as much as that OF 1884, and twenty times
the production of 1873. In addition TO this
enormous production and increase over
any earlier year, the importations OF pig
iron In the year just ending are ten times
as great as in the preceding year and
greater than In any year OF the decade.
and the total value OF iron and steel Inn
ported will also exceed that of any year
during the decade.
The following table shows the produc-
ton IN the United States OF pAg iron and
steel and the importation OF pig iron at
ouinauennial periods from 1871 10 1901. and
the estimated production and importa-
tion of 1907:
