"In addition to watching the migra

end Of the United States Steel Corpora
ton. has taken over the Hostetter Con-
nellsville Coke Company. a deal involving
all .old about 100000, and that $4,000
was paid to George I. Whitney for his
half of the Hostetter stock, was admitted
by thos. close to both sides here last
night, and it Is known that for some time
the Prick people have been buying up the
other half Of the stock.
The Hostetter plant a for years been
the one great stumbling block In the way
OF the Frick people, anAwithin the year the
big concern was compelled to make an adj
~vantageous offer for all the output of the
Hostetter plant. The Hostetter Company
holds one of the best blocks Of coking coal
land in the entire Connellsville region n
millions have been made out Of it since it
was organized in 1890. The land at that
time was bought for $3.50 per acre, but
within the past few years offers of 5000
per acre have been refused by the Hos
letter firm. The stocks par value has
been $50. but not a block OF it has been
sold at less than 500. TIT merger gives
the Prick concern practically control Of
the coke situation.

IT am n of those dreamers who do

that the highest honors and the great

Speaking Before Cotton Manufacturers,
HeN Declares Protection Wall May Be
Built Too High for Safety.

WASHINGTON, Oct. L.. - Secretary
Strauss. of the Department Of Commerce
and Labor. delivered an address bere to-
day before the National Association Of
Cotton Manufacturers. He reviewed the
history OF the cotton industry in this coun-
try from the beginning, saying that 1t
was founded in failure. He referred to
the difficulties In the early periods of
promoting manufacture of cotton ana
other goods by the colonists, as the re-
suit of prohibitive laws under Dutch and
British rule. Even as late as 1174.' the
Secretary said. wool cards were the only
articles of machinery allowed to be i'm
ported into this country.
To-day there is invested in this indus
try S613, 000, 0O0,'' the Secretary continued.
Its annual product Is 1856, oOO.0 900; it pays
out annually in wages $106, 10000 and ex-
ports $500 ,0O0-about one-twelfth of the
value of this class Of goods that enters
into international trade. The so-ealled
yellow races are steadily increasing Gus
toners of your goods. and as they ad-
n and prosper, provided we keep their
goodwin, they will buy more and more
of your product and of other American
manufactures China took $40, 900. 900 lesk
from you last year than the year before.
How much of this was due to a Silent

tlonary War, and which is known bv The
