Will Give All Producers a Show.

Mayor Fay returned Monday even
ing from his trip to Cleveland,
where he had been in attendance at
the meeting of the Bessemer Ore
Association on the Tuesday previ-
Gus. Asked relative to his views on
the disbanding of the Association
Mr.. Fay expressed the opinion that
the failure to continue the organiza-
ton would prove beneficial to the
independent producers, inasmuch
as it would give them an opportun-
ity to cell their ores at any price
which they might wish, avoiding
dictation from other interests.
Mr.. Fay and associates of the
Tesora Mining Company are in
position to mine and forward con-
siderable amount of ore from the
Forest this season if they find it
profitable 80 to do, the mine being
a stripping and milling proposition.
The Wallace Contracting Co. are
now engaged on a new stripping
contract at this mine. The CON-
pany also has a proven ore body of
considerable magnitude on the
Tesora, northeast of the city, which
will be underground, the surface
being about fifty feet. This mine
can be opened and placed in the
shipping list the present season if
conditions should warrant. :

seven machines played over 207 feet most
OF which broke their own muster records,

these grounds was 212 feet made by the
watchemokets OF East Providence and
this was beaten by five machines.
As usual the affair was under the aus
pices OF the Narragansett Engine COM
pany No. Of Riverside and though all
the usual precaution against accidents
were taken there were several vexatious
delays and some interesting situations
caused thereby.
When the muster was nearly half over

1900 feet from the suction box. burst and
as all the provisional supply had been
used to supply the place OF bursted
lengths earlier IN the day a delay OF
nearly an hour was caused
This put several engines behind and
lost them the advantage OF the strong
breeze which blew directly down the pa
per for a part OF the time. II also gave
several an advantage they would not
have secured II there had been no wait.
When the Defiance of Fall River was
on the stand the s0-foot length OF hose
between the engine and the iron pipe

NAH Man to a Table

NEW YORK, Sept. "a. - Nailed
down to a table by a gang of thieves
In a Bowery saloon, robbed and left to
his fate, is the remarkable story told
by man who applied to Bellevue hos
pltal tonight. He gave his name to
the physicians as Patrick Monaghan.
but is known to his companions as
Patrick J. Victor.
He told the physicians he was walk
ing about the Bowery Thursday night
and in the neighborhood of Chatham
square fell into conversation with
some men. and one of them proposed
having drink. He remembers having
a drink, but declares that after taking
it everything became blank. When he
came to his senses he says he was
stretched on his back on a table. He
tried to RISE but to his horror found
that he was nailed fast to the table.
He cried out in pain, but no one came
to his rescue. He finally succeeded in
withdrawing the nail from the table.
and with it still in his body left the sa-
loon. After wandering about all day
in dazed condition he appeared at
the hospital tonight and the nail was
removed. He declares that he was
robbed Of watch and $40 in money.
