Wages.

Baltimore, Nov. 29.--It is announced
that the Somerset Coal Company, the
W.. K. Niver Coal Company, and the
Merchants Coal Company, which own
and operate number of mines in the
Myersdale Pa.) region have decided
to make a reduction of 10 cents a ton
in the wages paid the miners. The cut
will become effective Dec. Is, and no.
tees will be posted at the mines to-
morrow.
The three companies employ up
wards Of $500 men, and it is expected
that the other smaller operators in
that vicinity will follow with a similar
reduction.
1t is said that so far the miners have
no knowledge of the decision reached
by the companies, but the latter dc
not believe they will make any pro-
test When coal was booming last
April the companies voluntarily ad-
vanced pay from So to 65 cents a ton
Now that the trade is very fiat, the
competition Is acute and a return will
be made to the old rate.

London, Nov. So.-The Standard
quotes statistics showing that there
has been curtailment of the
production of pig iron in the United
States during the past six months
amounting to about 100000 tons. In
this connection the paper says;
Notwithstanding this severe reduc-
ton in output, stocks have steadily
increased here from 100000 tons in May
to 507, 900 tons in October, largely ow-
ing to the imports of bounty-fed Ca
madam iron and STEEL This Canadian
competition, which is bound to grow,
is viewed with misgiving and 1t Is
only the boom in the United States
that has saved the British producer
from the severe effect of a COMPETE
ton fostered by direct subsidy from
the colonial government"

dlca and, in fact, all the opera singers
OF American birth as we'll as those born
abroad.
The public had pretty we'll forgotten
about Charles T. Yerkes till his recent
return from Europe. when he said that,
tnough a Republican, he was glad
Tammany had won the municipal cleo
ton in New York, because the reform
administration had raised his tax.
A large part of Mr.. Yerkes' tax is
paid on his town house here, which,
when built ten years ago, was herald
ed as the finest private residence in
town. though it could no longer lay
claim to any such distiction. 1t is
still among the handsomest private
residences, though, and Mr.. Yerkes, no
doubt, enjoys it thoroughly, despite
the fact that with all their attempts
upon the social citadel of the metrop-
oils he and his wife have not been
able to break in any more than was
Coils P. Huntington, or, in fact, the
majority of the -Inillionaires now
dwelling in the big town.
Mr.. Yerkes is certainly one of the
most energetic of them all. He must
be we'll past so now. 1t was thirty-one
years ago that he left Philadelphia,
made it necessary to begin his life all
over again, and he was surely no
chicken then, as to age, for he had
already won one handsome fortune.
The story of his earliest beginnings is
curious one.
When he was lad not more than
II, and living with his parents in
Philadelphia, he wandered away from
the house one day and strolled down
among the tangle of narrow streets
near the river side. There he saw a
sheriff's sale in progress. A little
soap maker had failed in business and
was being sold up" The bidding was
tame. Seventeen dollars was the big
gest offer for the entire stock. The
lad bid a dollar more and the deputy
sheriff, not noticing that the bidder
was boy, accepted the s17. The kid
had no money, but he persuaded the
auctloneer to wait till he could run
home and get some. His father hesi-
tated, especially as the boy wouldn't
tell why he wanted so much cash, but
the boy paid for the soap, induced an
expressman to load it up, and then
drove about among the retail gro
ceries, peddling out his purchase.
From the proceeds the boy paid the
expressman, liquidated his SIS in
debetdness and had 81 net profits aft
er finishing the transaction.
OF all the places Mr.. Yerkes has
lived in he likes this city best, appar-
emily, for a dozen years ago he had a
private tomb built for himself in
Greenwood Cemetery at cost of $780,
900. Duane.
