Chicago. Dec. l5.-The United States
Steel corporation has announced re-
duction in wages as a part OF it's re
trenchment move. About 10000 men,
or 80 per cent of the employees Will be
affected by reductions ranging from
5 to 90 per cent, becoming effective
Jan /, 1904. The announcement of the
move was made in New York yester-
day by leading official of the corpor-
alton.
officers here of the subsidiary COM
panies of the $1,000 100000 trust de-
clared yesterday tina. no official order
of reduction had been received from
the parent company in regard to Its
Chicago subsidiary plants.
The only employees whose wages Wiz
not be affected by the New Years day
reduction are the 10 per cent who are
members of the Amalgamated Assoeii :
ton of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers.
Their wage agreement runs until July
1. 1904, after which. 1t Is expected,
they will suffer the general cut. At
Joliet the mill men have a contract
that their wages can not be changed
without sixtyday notice, but as Their
mills closed yesterday, the sixty days
of grace agreement Is imperative.
The absolute dismissal of many high
salaried employees is now under con
sideration by the finance committee IF
the big corporation. Many have al
ready been discharged, and the office
forces of the corporation in the diff
ferent cities will be further curtailed
The duliness of the iron market and
the increasing strength of the inde-
pendent companies. making 1t necessa-
~ for the giant corporation to cut
prices 'rusnously in the effort to main
tain a monopoly, are said by officials
to have made the earnings for the past
quarter the lowest of any three month
period since j. Pierpont Morgan organ
lied the trust 1t Is impossible to state
the net earnings for October, Novem-
Der and December, as most of the sub
sidiary plants have been closed for
periods ranging from one to six weeks.
Previous estimates OF the quarters
net earnings have heretofore gone as
low as S24 1000 Representatives now
say that estimates Of 100000 600 net for
the quarter will not be too low. AS
Stunning that the corporation books will
show s2o.000.000 net earnings for oc-

CECILIA DISPATCHES.

The Ocilla dispensary contin-
ues to pile up cash in the Bank of
Ocilla at a lively rate. It is
thought the town will pocket
between four and five thousand
dollars in profits from this source
the present year.
No news has yet been received
from the Irwin county negroes
who left for Africa the first of
the year.
The city council held a meeting
Monday night and decided to
order an election on tie ques ton
of issuing bonds to the amount
of$15,000 for the purpose of build
ing an academy and putting in
an eleccricty light plant.
1t is being talked that Fitzger-
aid may, at the proper time,
offer the county afne courthouse
and Jail, free of cost, in exchange
for the capital. An up-to.date
courthouse and jail would cost
only about $4,000, and Ocilla
may low to reach out after it
herself!
The board of county commits
sioners, since the convicts have
put back on the public roads,
have been doing all that can be
done, and the present law, to
place the county squarely in line,
as to roads and bridges, with the
most progressive counties of the
state. Commissioner Tucker is
devoting much time to road
working and other important
county business; but no man cap
able OF filling the office could af-
ford to give his whole time to the
county for the mcager salary he
receives, and the county has
grown to such an extent that one
mans whole time could be profta-
bly, employed in its interest.
The suggestion of Bro. Mercer,
that the ordinary attend to the
duties of the Office, as was done
many years ago, when the county
was i'll it's infancy, will not do to
consider, as the ordinary now
has all the business one man
should be asked to attend to.

placed with this company some

this machine on the right of way,

has done the work we'll, for be-
You'd our expectations.
We are placing with you an
order for your No 3, which is
much stouter and better suited
for the extra work Of clearing

pose for which we will use it; for
farm use we think the No

farming interest of the country a
great service in placing this
machine in their reach.
