OLD BILLET POOL.
Steel BKngnates to Hold Another Secret
 Meeting Today.

Pittsburg. Nov. ,5.-It' is reported here tonight that representatives of all the large steel companies in the country, will hold another secret meeting to- morrow. similar to the one held in this city last week for the purpose of re- establishing the old billet pool. It is said the meeting will be held either in New York or Chicago t
 A combination of the billet makers Is said to be the only means of saving the trade. Prices are low and the site uation bad. It was in circumstances precisely similar to these that the bil- let pool in 1903 was formed. Tn July of that year billets were $27 and $2S in Pittsburg for Bessemer with $1 ton added for oren hearth.

For children in the fall and winter, nothing is better than a blouse and kilted skirt in blue serge. with knick- erbockers of the same material. This is a serviceable costume and warm, and has the further advantage that pettl- coats are not needed.
 Many Parisian wash waists will be built on tailored lines. with long sleeves and very little fullness in the body. Indeed, 1t Is predicted that the old-time tight waist of the sixties, but toned down the front with prim row of bullet buttons, is to make its ap- pearance this season.

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN,
The whlte House Silver.

It IS said that the matter of silver has caused more trouble than all the other furnishings of the White House. So deeply rooted is the prejudice of the American populace against extrava- yance in the matter of plate, and so historic the results of defying this pre- jndiee, that when Mrs. Roosevelt re- gently added some fine forks and spoons to the stock she did so as se- cretIy as though she were concocting a conspiracy. The new silver service was much needed and is simply the re- models of the odds and ends of all the silver handed down by the former ten ants. Whenever 8 set was anything like complete, Mrs. Roosevelt kept IL intact It was only odd forks or spoons or dishes which went into the fund for the 1ne Colonial silver which now adorns the White House board. The gold set of small forks and spoons of Martin Van Buren still remain the most pretentious portion of the White House service. This same set caused Mr. Van Buren's defeat. and was the cause of many an eloquent discourse from his successor. General Taylor. who at his first formal dinner held up one of the spoonsNand remarked: ITO think these defeated Mattie, and they are only plated at that"

ignorance or Something Worse.

1t is disclosed IN one portion of the testimony If

French, ldahos sole representative in the lower
mouse OF Congress, was hardly aware prior to that
examination, that the Mormon hierarchy once peti-

but they had not impressed themselves on his mind
and he was quite that he never read either

norance would be remarkable in an immature child
of Idaho or Utah and it is still more remarkable
when connected with the person of statesman.

Frenchs ignorance was developed is so interesting
that 1t is made part of the information It runs
as follows (pages $50 and 561 Vol y:

The Ecclesiastical Press.

There. are some expressions of surprise in the
ecclesiastical press that the compainants in the
of Dudley D. Toncray VS.. Alfred Bulge, action
to oust the latter from the office of District Judge
have taken the action into the Supreme Court
One of the newspapers of that class feels that it
has been injured in sensitive mental spot but
it declares with commendable spirit of resignation
that it supposes it stand it. having passed through
series of Notwithstanding calamities and become
hardened to the untoward vicssitudes of life.
Having proceeded without malice and wholly in
the interest of constitutional government and the
morals of the commonwealth, the appellants will
be deeply grathed learn that what they about
to do will not stretch to the breaking point the for
titude of those of their neighbors who would make
party convenience of the organic law of the State.
Departing from the form of speech inspired by
the intolerance of the cock-sure critics of the press
of the Latter Day Saints, it is proper to inquire
why standing behind the original complaint are
not entitled to all the judicial latitude that would
be granted to of their class? There is
nothing so remarkable about an appeal to higher
court that it should provoke contemptuous aluson
or distress of mind or the small filings of petit
Jogging newspapers
The gentlemen who have undertaken to sustain
the involabity of the State constitution have marked
out their course with the earnest intention to reach
belief that many persons unconsttutonaly ad-
ministering the law and enjoying the perqusites of
the governing processes.
They have raised question that is entitled to the
most deferentia consideration and the highest degree
of respect. They doubt not that the trainers of
the constitution intended to prescribe class of GRIM
inals and abbettors of crinaity, described in terms
in the constitutional document itself, and it is their
intention to test their belief and satisfy themselves
that it is correct or incorrect
There is nothing much more dangerous to sys-
tenn of self-government than to treat its solemn

sumption that the cause of the objectors now re-
erred to is SO exceedingly fragile that they must

obtain hearing in the court of public opinion
