GENERAL NEWS.


The coal situation throughout the
country does not mend. To all APP
pearances, the supply does not keep
pace with the everyday consumption.
The mines are producing about their
full output now, but there is some
difficulty In transportation, and il
takes time to get the coal to market.
President John Mitchell of the Mine
Workers has requested that the men
assist the operators in every way pos
sible TO increase the supply. Prices
have taken a bound upward the past
week, due to the abrogation of the
agreement by which the independent
mine owners sold their coal at tide
water TO the railroad companies that
also operate mines at a fixed price of
IS per ton. Coal now sells In New
York at hatever it il will bring, and
under the sharp demand, high rates
obtain, about $40 to S12 being consid-
cred a good trade for the purchaser.
Mayor Low had a conference Tuesday
with the railroad presidents, urging
them to do something to relieve the
situation. The latter blame the indie
pendents and the retail dealers.
Congress appointed a committee to
investigate the coal famine and report
as to remedy. A bill was reported
and has passed to give a rebate for a
year on imported coal, in amount
equal TO the tariff duty OF 81 cents per
ton. The mine owners are putting in
their side before the coal arbitration
commission, with evidence tending TO
show that the miners are we'll paid,
and that the union is responsible for
the present troubles.

CLARK TALKS ON ms SALT LAKE ROAD.
Makes Trackaee Arrangements 10 Southern
California with the Santa Fe.

Senator w. A. Clark arrived at
the Palace Hotel in San Fran
cisco few evenings ago, and
fell into a discussion of the plans
for his new San Pedro, Los An
geles and Salt Lake road, which
he declares will be in operation
between Salt Lake and Los An
geles within two years. He also
gave out the information that a
recent meeting with E. A. Ripley
resulted in the Clark road secur-
ing trackage rights over the
Santa Fe tracks between San
Bernardino and Daggett until
the new road sees fit to build
through the Cajon Pass. Of his
road the Senator says: when
our road is finished it will be the
finest piece of track in the world,
/ do not confne the comparison
to roads west of the Missouri
river, but take in the whole
roads. The trackage arrange
ment with the Santa Fe greatly
simplifes matters, however, and
will enable us to have our road
in operation long in advance of
the time we have heretofore ex-
pected. Mr.. Hartman has moth
ing to do with my Salt Lake
road. When completed it will
treat the Hartman and Gould
connecting lines at Salt Lake in
the same equal manner, provided
they each show it the same bust
ness courtesy. / have purchased
the entire Oregon Short Line sys-
tenn south of Salt Lake City. 1t
is an absolute purchase, and Mr..
Hartman retains absolutely no
interest in the property. He is
not even a director. At Salt
Lake we will connect with both
the Union Pacific and the Rio
Grande, and any other line that
has business to offer. In fact, we
will be in the field to do business
with all roads on an equal basis.
We will have our tracks finished
and in operation between San
Pedro, Los Angeles and Riverside
by the middle of July, and event
ually we will build through the
Cajon Pass, when we will have
better and easier road than
the Santa Fe now has"

The fact is that for the past five years

Furthermore, he has always been

in his 'seventy-third year and, in addi-

retired from public life and has since

Experiences of Two Surgsrus. OF the
london Hospital.
The New York Herald publishes the
following from its London correspond
ent:
MI. Edison is not the only person
to suffer from tie Mysterious power
of the Roentgen rays. Two physicians
in the Photograph department of the
London hospital have fallen victims to
its baneful influence, with the result
that they had to take an enforced
holiday and that the use of the rays
for direct examination of injuries has
been abandoned.
The rays are now employed to take
the photographs from which the sur
geon works, thus avoiding the neces-
sity of manipulating a limb while the
rays are actually playing on it. Gloves
with lead foil sewed into the back
were tried, but they were found to
impede the hands to such an extent
that they were discarded.
Mr.. Wilson, II of the two men who
used to make thes direct examinations
with the rays at the hospital, explained
that he had not done this class Of work
for the last eighteen months, vet his
hands showed but little signs of i'm
proving. Hot lamentations were still
necessary, and it is practically certain
that his finger nails will never grow
properly again. The first symptom of
x ray poisoning is a troublesome in
fammation of the hands, accompanied
by swellings resembling chilblains. de-
preston of spirits and insomnia.
The nails, too, are affected, a ridge
forming down the center, in which pus
is generated. After the matter has
been removed the nail seems partially
to perish, the injury to the matrix i'm
pairing the future growth. The trou-
BILE is chiefly noticeable in the finger
tips, decreasing toward the wrist, but
slight evidences are generally to be
found on most parts of the body.
The eyes, too, are apt to suffer from
the ray flicker. Regarded pathological
~, the results of the X rays seem to
be cumulative, being up to a certain
point highly beneficial and beyond that
the reverse.
