CELEBRATES ITS CENTENNIAL.
Notable Function Begun at the Mora
Wan Theological Seminary.

Special Dispatch to The Star. *,
BETHLEHEM; Pa, October 3-The Mo-
ravian Theological Seminary began yester-
day the celebration Of it's centennial having
been opened in 1907 at Nazareth, Pa. The
first session was held exactly 100 years ago
yesterday.
With the year 1875 begins the history of
the Moravian Church in America. For many
years thereafter the ministry Of this church
was filed by Europeans, but in 1907, the
seminary was established with a studen.
body of three at Nazareth There are only
two other similar institutions in the world
today and the institute here Is the training
school of the Moravian Church for the
United States, Alaska, Canada, the West
Indies and Central America.
Two transfers of the seminary from Naz-
areth to Bethlehem were made until in
1858 it was permanently established In
Bethlehem.
The present centennial celebration marks
a prosperous period in the seminarys long
history At first only an institution for pre-
paratory training for the Moravian Church,
a college department for classical training
was later established and at present four
year course is available with an elective
course Of modern sciences. The last term
closed with an enrolment of fifty-six stu
dents.
New buildings are now under construc-
ton and prominent in the centennial cele-
bration will be the laying of the corner
stone Of a memorial library for which $2o,-
600 was given py J. c. Harvey and Charles
Harvey Of BrooAiyn as a memorial to their
parents.
The exercises will continue today and to-
morrow.

THE IRON INDUSTRY.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CLEVELAND, Ohio. October s.-The
Iron Trade Review today says:
Total obligations on the books Of the big
iron and steel producers are decreasing
from week to week. but they are working
around to readjust themselves to the new
conditions The situation is being taken
philosophically. and there are no indica-
lions Of what, with the greatest stretch of
the imagination, could be construed as a
panicky feeling.
To the fact that the railroads are doing
very little buying is attributed the lack of
interest at this time in new buying except
for immediate requirements on the part of
those interests which have not already
covered. The pig iron market is without
feature, and, aside from a few scattered
lots involving small tonnages, there has
been no movement Of note.
Structural bookings of September ae-
gregated more than 120, 900 tons, of which
only about $4,000 tons went to the Ameri-
can Bridge Company. The bulk of the
business placed was made up Of small
jobs on which competition was very brisk
and independent interests shared literally
The McClintic Marshall Construction Com
pany took 1,900-ton bridge order from
the Chicago and Northwestern Grade
crossing work is coming out we'll, western
roads being in the market for more than
5000 tons. The Carnegie Steel Company
has sold a lot of $500 tons of steel bars
for concrete reinforcements, and there is
a Philippines inquiry for 900 tons. Ex-
port business is improving.

WESTERN UNION WINS.
Gets Pennsylvania Lines West OF
Pittsburg.

NEW YORK, October 3.-Long-
differences between the Western Union Tel
egraph Company and the Pennsylvania
Railway Company operating lines west OF
Pittsburg have been adjusted. The settle
ment is said to have no significance SO far
as the plans of the Gould interests for
reaching the seaboard are concerned.
By the new arrangement, under which
contracts have been signed giving the West
ern Union a twenty-five years lease. the
Western Union gains two short lines which
hitherto had been controlled by the Postal
Telegraph Gable Company. These ines-the
Grand Rapids and indiana and the Column
bus and Sandusky-aad contracts with the
Postal company before they were absorbed
by the Pennsylvania.
The Postal has agreed to sell it's wires
along the Columbus and Sandusky road,
which is fifty-six miles long, to the railway
company, which in turn will lease them to
the Western Union. Throughout the coun-
try west of Pittsburg the Postal has never
followed any Of the main lines of the Penn
sylvania, and has had private rights Of way
or has maintained Its wires along other
routes. The Postal has arranged to cover
all the territory required and not affected
by the new arrangement 1t continues. as
heretofore, to operate all wires east Of
Pittsburg on the Pennsylvania.
In reference to the report of the closing
of the contract between the Western Union
Telegraph Company and the Pennsylvania
railroad Edward J. Nally, vice president and
general manager Of the Postal Telegraph
Cable Company, stated that the closing Of
the contract between the Western Union
Telegraph Company and the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, as detailed In the dis
patches. does not affect the Postal Tele-
graph Cable Company in the least.
1t does not take away from the Postal
single office of any consequence and refers
only to the lines west Of Pittsburg which
the Western Union have operated all these
years. The Postal Telegraph-Cable Com
pany continues to operate all the lines on
the Pennsylvania Railroad Companys sys-
tenn east of Pittsburg under a contract
which has many years to run. The ar
rangement with the Western Union Is mere
ly a renewal of the contract which has
expired, or was about to expire, and about
which they have been iE litigation.
The Postal company Is in nowise con-
cerned and in no way affected.

Operating Expenses for August
Caused Comment.

Operating Expenses for August
Caused Comment.
BALTIMORE. October 3.-The statement
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany for August, issued a few days ago.
showed a large increase in operating ex-
penses This item was. in fact, so much in
excess Of the average monthly expenditures
on this account that 1t attracted more than
usual comment. Officials Of the company
have been asked by persons interested in
the securities of the corporation to explain
the increase. This has been done without
hesitation, the following explanation having
been officially sent out yesterday:
1.-The reasons for the large Increase In
operating expenses OF the Baltimore and
Ohio for August are: Increase in rate Of
pay and In the number Of employees because
Of increased tonnage; increase in mainte-
nance of way and structures. brought about
by increase in rates of pay, increase In the
number of ties, amount of ballast and gem
eral improvement in the condition OF the
roadway. - a-'
1.-THE increase in maintenance Of equip
ment was due to making more thorough re-
pairs and to the age Of the equipment, as
well as increase In cost of material.
1.-The increase in the account of conduct
ing transportation was due to rates Of pay
and increased tonnage. In maintenance OF
equipment portion Of me increase was
due to increase of depreciation, amounting
to $780, eco month.
1.-The annual percentage for depreciation
varies with the age and character of the
equipment. This is divided into classes. and
separate accounts are kept OF each piece
Monthly accounts Of this year are made up
in accordance with the new classification of
accounting as prescribed by the interstate
commerce commission, and the figures for
last year are generally recast in accordance
with this method Of accounting. Therefore
the comparisons are fair.

GAS MAIN EXTENSION.
Inspector Reports on Request by citi
zens' Association.

Thomas ]. Fisher electrical inspector Of
the District, has made a report to the Com
naissoners upon an investigation he made
relative to the recent request Of the North
east Suburban Citizens Association for an
extension Of the gas mains in the extreme
northeastern section Of the city.
Mr.. Fisher said the gas company has
plans made for extending its main from 18th
street and Rhode Island avenue out the lat
ter roadway to Brentwood road. through
Brentwood to Sherwood's subdivision, ter
minating at 18th street. This will change the
present naphtha lamps to gas and make q
continuous line of gas lamps on that thor
oughfare. Regarding the request for an ex-
tension Of the gas service out Rhode Island
avenue from Brentwood road east to 18th
street or Queens Chapel road Inspector
Fisher said he regarded 1t as unreasonable.
Mr.. Fisher explained the conditions on a
number Of other roads and streets men-
toned by the association for gas main ex-
tensions. He concluded by giving the fol-
lowing summary of the gas company's
plans relative to making extensions: On
18th street, or Queens Chapel road from
Newton street to Brentwood road, to con-
meet proposed main on 10Th street from
Franklin street to Rhode Island avenue and
from Rhode Island avenue west on Brent
wood road to connect with proposed main at
18th street and Brentwood road: on Rhode
Island avenue east from Goth street to South
Dakota avenue and down both oath street
ana SOutn Dakota avenue, also jackson
street between 18th and Goth streets.
These proposed extensions, for which
application has been made, will give a good
supply of gas to the territory" he said,
"and take care of the thickly settled por-
tons, and is as much. II not more, than the
association or the District could reasonably
expect or request"
Commissioner Mcfarland, who has super
vision Of the electrical department of the
District. has made the following motion
upon the papers in the case Of this request
for gas main extensions:
II move that the substance of the report
Of the electrical department be transmitted
to the Northeastern Suburban Citizens AS
ISOLATION. If that association Is satisfied
with the situation I think no further action
at this time will be necessary. But II u or
any other association individual citizen
makes a reasonable request for gas mains
for private lighting purposes / recommend
that the Commissioners make test Of their
power in the matter by requesting either
the Washington Gas Light Company or the
Georgetown Gas Light Company, as the
case may be, to make the extension de-
sired. If that request should be made and
refused. I recommend that the matter be
brought to the attention Of Congress with q
view to legislation"

The market later in the forenoon rallied
