THE LARGEST FREIGHT CARS.
Garry 100000 Pounds and Will Be
Used Within the Limits Of Pittsburg.

From the Boston Evening Transcript.
The largest and strongest freight cars In
the world have just been built In Pittsburg
for a Pittsburg corporation, for use within
the limits of Pittsburg They mark what
is believed to be the latest advance in rail-
road rolling stock construction; and how
great that advance is may be gathered from
the fact that one of these open freight cars,
empty, weighs about the same as the aver
age American locomotive Of thirty years
ago; while one of these cars, weighted with
the full load that it is intended to carry,
unable to pass safely over the bridges and
trestles of any railroad In the country at
that time Indeed, few roads nowadays.
outside of those recognized as first-class in
construction, would care to receive one OF
these cars loaded to it's capacity for trans
portation over its tracks. But they are ex-
pected to stay on the tracks Of that short
but important line, the Monongahela Con-
Meeting railroad, whose initials they bear.
They are the property of that railroad,
which is operated by the Jones Il Laughltns
Steel Company and connects their various
plants on both sides OF the Monongahela
river as we'll as affording access to a num-
Der of other plants along the river fronts.
They were designed according to the speci-
fications prepared by w. w. Wilcox gen
eral superintendent Of the railroad COM
pany, and of Frank McCune, its general
manager, who desired cars suited to the pc
culiar needs of their business. These cars
will be used to transport ore, coal, pig or
scrap iron billets or other materials to and
from the various departments and mills be-
longing to the company. Hauling iron and
steel is heavy work and requires heavy
cars to do it economically. The cars which
have just been delivered weigh 10000 and
40 700 pounds.

they would appreciate such an exceptional
opportunity. The old detective. in Willlie
Collins exciting story of The Moonstone'
had a vocation which was to find out the
sins and crimes of others; but he had an
avocation and passion, which was to grow
roses and breed new varieties. The value
OF beauty has been rather indeterminate.
Trees and flowers have been regarded of
small consequence when they got in the
way of what are denominated the utilities,
but they are rising in the scale Of public
appreciation, and precedents like the pres
ent will lend encouragement to the efforts
that are making to increase and protect
them.

Mr.. Jonathan Hutchinson seeks to show
that arsenic may have an Geological rea-

Der of the Polytechnic he accepts as proved
that chimney-sweepers' cancer is caused
by the local irritation Of arsenic The
fact that neither coal dust nor wood ashes

Neither charcoal burners nor coal miners
are liable to SCOT cancer. Its subjects are
ch1mney-SweeperS. stokerS, gardeners and
others who come in contact with coal SCOT.
Now coal SCOT contains large quantities of
arsenic. and the condition of skin which
1t produces in chimney-sweepers is, in all
respects. exactly like that which occurs
occasionally in connection with the too
long continued medicinal use of arsenic.
The chain of evidence appears. therefore,
to be complete.
Mr.. Hutchinson now advances still step
further. That the habit of smoking is

SCOT can cause it: but we have not yet
demonstrated that in this instance it is
the presence of arsenic in tobacco that is
influential. Mr.. Hutchinson is rich In sug-

CONCERNING ROSE VALUES.
Some Recent Litigation Indicates Tha
They Reach High Figures.
From the Boston Transcript

From the Boston Transcript.
The rose in popular estimation fs the
queen of flowers, but appreciation Of 1t is
generally left for the poets expression. and
its merits are not usually threshed out in
the dry courts OF law. It is true that it
has been associated with one of the worlds
most interesting civil wars, but even there
the part 1t played was one Of sentiment
and symbolism and. we have waited until
this unitarian age to have that sentiment
translated into terms Of commercialsm
Perhaps those terms have been appreciated
before this by those who have sought to
express themselves in floral language to
friends or sweethearts, especially in the
winter season, but on a large scale we are
enlightened upon the money value of these
gems Of the garden by a suit brought
against the New York, New Haven and
Hartford railroad BY Miss sarah 3. Fav
and Michael II. Walsh Of Woods Hole
Some. time in May last year the COM
pany was burning some old buildings at
that place, and the defendants claimed
that their rose gardens, situated across the
Way, were seriously injured by the fire. AS
the company denied its liability actions for
damages were brought and the cases We're
heard before an auditor, who found for
Miss Fay and Mr. Walsh in sums rising
81, 600 and $4,000 respectively. Before the
cases were reached for trial in court the
railroad company paid $4,000 In settlement.
Probably Robert M. Morse never before
argued a case in which he employed roseate
language ir, such profusion as in this. Such
names as ..debutante," sweetheart" and
.I.illian Nordica" should give to things,
precious In themselves, higher touch of
sweetness and perfection and, therefore, a
higher value. To begin with, half dozen
exDerts gave Mr.. Walshs collection of
roses the highest praise. one testifying that
