feeble health no public reception was
held, but immediate friends paid their
tribute of respect to the elderly couple.

COKE PRODUCTION,
Decline Of g Per Cent for This
Year.

According to report on the coke produc-
ton of the United States prepared by Mr..
Edward p. w. Parker Of the geological sur
vey. the total output OF the coke ovens for
this year shows q decline Of more than
per cent. the production being 23621. $50
short tons for 1904 as compared with 2o,-
274 2S1 for 1903. The decline In value was
even greater, being from $50, 49S, ga to sc, :
G26. 1873. or 81 per cent
The decline in production was a natural
one" says Mr.. Parker. due to a slump in
the iron trade during the summer months.
in turn caused for the most part by the
unsettled conditions that usually attend q
presidential campaign. And while these
conditions also affected prices, the great DIFF
ference between the values Of the produc-
ton In 1904 and 1903 was due to the abnOr-
mally high prices which prevailed In the
early part OF 1903, when, because Of the
fuel famine induced by the anthracite strike
of the preceding year. manufacturers OF
coke were able to obtain almost any figure
they might demand The average price for
all the coke made and sold in 1904 was only
0 cents less than in 1901, and was higher
than that of any year from 1893 to 1885, in
elusive" The report says that with the be-
ginning of 1905 there were under construc-
ton 4.430 new ovens. of which S32, or 1873
per cent were of the retort or by-product
type.
The number Of retort ovens was 2.91O in
1904. The output from retort ovens has in
creased from /. 179. 900 tons in 1901, to 2.G0S :

There were sos establishments as compared

RUSHING RAILWAY WORK.
Line to Connect Washington and the
Great Falls.
Special Correspondence of The Star.


VIENNA. Va, August IA. 1908.
The work of constructing the line of rail-
road from Washington to the Great Falls
is being pushed forward with vigor, Ma
terials and implements required for the
road shipped over the Bluemont branch
of the Southern railway to this place, and
then transported by teams over the eight
miles OF fairly good road TO points along
the line of the new railroad as required for
use In this way dump cars. steam shovels.
power engines. loads of drain tile and
even great steel bridge material have been
transported TO the works. W. III. Bow
man of Vienna has just completed the
delivery of the material for one of the
largest bridges required on the line. An
other bridge, that across Difficult, which is.
IN TACT. as in name, the most difficult
stream in this section of the state. will be
400 feet in length One of the largest
warehouses in Vienna has been rented by
the company for storage purposes.
The work of grading and bridge construc-
ton has now been completed from the Nir-
ginia end of the -Aqueduct bridge almost 10
Vienna, distance of about eighteen miles.
and while 1t is supposed that the road Is
being built for and will be operated as an
electric road, everything Is being done In
such a thorough and substantial manner
that 1t will be possible for 1t to be oper-
ated as steam road. and in fact, Ii Is be
lieved that this is the ultimate purpose OF
named In this connection.
The electric road which was extended
from West Falls Church to Vienna during
the winter, is now IN successful operation,
and the branch from Vienna to Fairfax Is
very great accommodation to those liv-
ing having business at the court house.
This road is using its new station, the
building having been remodeied to enable
passengers to enter the cars from the walt
ing room under cover. feature which Will
be more fully appreciated in the winter.
E. L. s. Bouton. who is the agent at Vienna
for the electric road and also postmaster.
has moved his office to the new building.
Mr.. and Mrs W. G.. Collins and daugh-
ter Eleanor and Mr.. A. l.. Cross have re-
turned from their visit to Atlantic City.

field Hospital. Washington. and who has
been recuperating at his home here for

of the present month
Vienna from Herndon. have about com
peted their dwelling here, and will occupy
it shortly.
Unusual interest Is felt In the coming
democratic primary, the sentiment being
largely in favor OF Mr.. Willard, who has
the greatest respect of the people of Vienna,
regardless OF political party. Mr.. Willard
has friend in every one of the Virginia
boys who was associated with him as a
soldier during our recent trouble with
Spain. His interest in their welfare at that
time is remembered with pleasure.

Swatting the Umpire.
From the Springfield Union.

From the Springfield Union.
Base ball Is not such a serious business as
TO justify any resort to unsportsmanlike
practices 1t is right and proper that 10y
atty to the home team should be pro-
nounced, but that loyalty is best evfden led
by dIsapproval of any acts that tend 20
bring the team or the city into ill-repute.
Due allowance must always be made for
the excitement OF the moment. In the
retrospect 1t Is always easy to crtfcise
and condemn. But was there anything
about the incident at Hampden Park 10
warrant any such outburst as occurred?
No umpire Is infallible. although some ex-
ercise better judgment than others. and.
granting that the umpire in this particular
case made mistake in calling the player
safe" his decision should have governed.
His authority to enforce his decisions must
be accepted, and 1t is idle for players 10
dispute with him His acts are always sur
ficiently judged by the spectators. The
captain of the team against which the de-
cision was given might have felt 1t was
his duty to protest, but a far better spirit
would have been shown by a determination
to play the game and win 1t in spite or
the umpire.
