 In the investigation made by the coroner, 1t was learned that Parker was hanging around another saloon a little before the fatal duel, and that he appeared to be seeking trouble. An ey e. witness testified that Edwards did not get to his weapon and fire until Parker had fired two shots at least at the bartender, one of which struck the young man. The funeral of Parker took place this afternoon.

Falling on ln Iron.


 Announcement was made today that there would be a decided falling on in the production or pig iron during the month of December Four furnaces m the Southern territory have been blown out and the blast at half dozen others will be cut off to great extent on account of, the raw material supp plies, being short because of the i'll transportation facilities.
 The four furnaces blown out need immediate repairing, and they will not be in condition to be making iron until some time next montL If then. The railroad car shortage is so pronounced that iron consumers who are needing the product purchased several weeks ago have telephoHsd to representatives of big Iron companies here to offer as much as S10 car for switching, so that cars can be secured with which to move the product. The local repre- sentatives have made reply that they will not participate in the efforts to bribe.
