Making Charcoal Iron.

The Shelby Iron Company has blown in their No. 2 furnace at Shelby, manu- featuring charcoal iron again after q shut down of i've months. There is an increased demand for charcoal iron, car wheel works and others using this class of iron needing raw material
 The Coosa Iron Company will also blow in charcoal furnace at Gadsden shortly. The demand for both kinds of iron. coke and charcoal. Is very steady and good prices obtain. The railroads announce another extension of the rate from West Virginia to this district on coke. The rate was given shortly after the strike of the union coal miners began last July in order that the iron furnaces in this district might continue in operation. The rate was to have ended two months ago. but two extensions have been granted. Ef- forts are still being made to improve the iron production of this district.

Work 10 Being Carried on BY Hun.
dreds Of Willing Hands.

Connellsville, Pa, Sept. 12.-With a
report that could be heard for radius
Of fifteen miles, the Rand powder
works, located at Fair Chance, Pa,
blew up, causing over thirty deaths
and considerable damage. So far II
bodies have been taken from the
ruins, and 1t is said there are many
other bodies still under the debris.
Hundreds Of people have volunteered
for rescue work, but progress is slow,
and 1t will be some time before the
casualties are known.
The explosion occurred In car G.
powder, and was followed few NOM
onts later by another and heavier one,
when the flames ignited the large
magazine The concusslon Of the Sec
ond explosion was SO great that tele-
phone, telegraph and trolley wires
were blown down, interrupting all
communication with the scene of the
catastrophe.
The bodies recovered were burned
almost beyond recognition.
For a mile around Fair Chance
buildings have been blown over and
at Uniontown, Pa, seven miles from
the explosion, hundreds of windows
have been broken. A large skylight
in the court house at Uniontown was
smashed and there was panic among
the occupants to escape from tho
building. Damage was done at Con-
nellsville, Mount Pleasant and Scd
dale, and in hundreds Of homes the
dishes fell from the cupboards and the
pictures were thrown from the walls.
Scores Of people in the town Of Fair
Chance have painful injuries.
Not vestage of ten buildings that
made up the big powder works re-
main standing, and the debris is now
on fire, and two cars of dynamite that
cannot be removed from the vicinity
are momentarily expected to go up.
Thousands of people rushed to the
scene of the explosion within half an
hour after 1t happened. Uniontown
sent hundreds Of rigs, and the sur
rounding country turned out en- masse.
Now they are returning, panic strick.
en-, fearful of another explosion from
the dynamite cars, which may add fur.
ther terror and swell the death list
to greater proportions.
1t is stated In telephone message
from Fair Chance that the dead would
probably be between 20 and 30. The
Rand Powder Company had ten separ-
ate buildings, and employed about 45
people. All of these buildings are said
to have been destroyed.
Intense excitement prevails and 1t
is impossible at this time to get de-
tails or names.
Among the six bodies recovered was
that of Mr.. Rand, manager Of the
plant.
There are said to be from 35 to 40
bodies still In the ruins. The res.
cue work is being carried on by hun.
dreds Of willing hands in hopes some
will be taken from the ruins alive.

Does GEORGE Boss heIen2

Helen Gould, it is rumored, has
been forbidden by her brother, Geo.
Gould, to contribute any more money
to the anti-Mormon movement. Miss
Gould, who financed entirely the fight
against Brigham Roberts, intended
giving literally to the women in their
present campaign. The Mormons
saw the railroads, and the George
Gould injunction is the result, so the
story runs.
