THIRD WARD FIGHT
 IS GROWING WARM
R. H. KERR POINTS OUT THAT THE VOTERS OF THE WARD SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO SELECT EocLE- sToNs SUCCESSOR.

The fight in the Third ward for alder man to succeed R. H. Eggleston is wax ing warm. R. H. Kerr, member of the former graft investigating committee, and yesterday:
 "As a citizen of the Third ward, per init me to use your columns to discuss matter of public interest.
 Alderman Eggleston has announced his proposed resignation. The election of his successor is a matter of vital import ance to the people of that ward. A peti- ton signed by a large majority of the qualified voters of the ward will be pre- sented to the council asking that A. L. Hoyt be elected by the board for the un- expired term. Ihave heard that at least one alderman has said that such petition would have no effect and that another applicant has sufficient pledges for his election. The right to petition the gov erning body is an ancient and cherished privilege of the people It is embodied in the bill of rights of every state in the union, and 1t carries with 1t the implied requirement. that petitions of the people shall be entitled to and receive earnest and careful consideration. Surely no al- derman elected, by the free and unquali- fled vote of his own ward would be will ing to deny that privilege to the voters of the Third ward.
 ."What is there in the office of alderman -an office without pay-that would in- duce any person to desire it, or to accept it, against the expressed will of the voters of the ward? Granting that 1t is natural that the members of the board should feel kindly toward an applicant who has been associated with them in city affairs in ministerial capacity, that is no reason why they should be willing to deny the people of the Third ward the right to exercise their choice in determining who shall be their representative on the board. What higher privilege can the people exercise than that of naming their repre- sentatives, and what possible reason can be advanced for denying 1t in this in- stance?
 "A resolution will be presented asking
 
 derman to fill the vacancy to an election by the qualified democratic voters of the Third ward as shown by the registration list for the recent primary, the election to be held under direction of the city executive committee, without expense 10 the city or the candidates
 "The public-spirited citizens Of the Third ward will pay the expenses of such primary, and the names of contributors and amounts will be made public This is democratic doctrine. This plan is fair and just to the candidates and to the peo- pie of the ward, and l believe will com mend itself to every member of the board of aldermen. If there can be any reasonable objection advanced, the people of the Third ward will be glad to have the same made public"

The young woman has failed to recognize members of her family, and, apparently, her mind is blank re- garding past incidents.
 When she regained consciousness she arose from bed and dressed herself. She was prevented from leaving the house, which she seemed to want to do, and later seated herself in rocking chair. reading the Bible and several other religious books. All attempts of members of the family to get the girl to talk are futile.
 Mrs. Susan Wirth. a neighbor, who has been attending the girl, was at tracted to the room shortly before noon by Mss Konter moving about the apartment When she entered she found the girl dressed and standing be- lore mirror, putting her hat on. She noted Mrs. Wirth's presence by request ing glass of water, and when 1t was handed to her she asked:
 Are you sure this Is not beer?"
 Before an answer could be given the girl drank the water and then started to leave the room. Her progress was barred, however, by her father

Here she found Mrs. Wirth Undecided for a moment as to what to do. the girl finally seated herself in a rock ing chair. Picking up her catecbism. A Bible and several religious books from a nearby stand she started to read.
 She has asked what time # was and volunteered the information that she was going to Pittsburg, but has refused ab- solutely to answer any questions. Her actions since recovering her senses have added greatly to the already complicated case.
 Miss Konter left her home late Monday afternoon for the purpose of making a few purchases, either at Shousetown or Pittsbsrg. When she failed to return, Monday night her family became alarmed and began search for her. Neghbors took up the search without success Early Wednesday morningl the distracted moth CT of the girl found her lying across the bed of her room.
 It Is the opinion of the doctors that some powerful drug, the nature of which is not known at present, was administer ed to the girl.

NEW RECORDS BY
 TENNESSEE GO.
OF INGOTs AT THE STEEL PLANT EXCEEDED ANY PREVIOUS MONTH BY 27p4 TONS. NEW RAIL RECORD.

The Tennessee company, instead of since the strike of the United miners began, has made at the Ensley steel plant new high records. At the office of the vice president and general man. ager the following facts were given out yesterday:
 The best previous record on the out put of ingots was made in March of this year, when the figures went to 3s,2ss tons. During the month just closed the production was 42.022, an increase of 2724 tons.
 In the blooming mill the production for July was 37.124 tons. while the best previous record, made fin March, was 35.147 tons. showing an increase for the past month of 1877 tons.
 The report that the rail mill was seri- ously crippled in its output by an in- sufficient coal supply is emphatically denied and figures are produced to show that the record of the output of steel rails for the last week exceeded any previous record by BOA tons.
 Alice furnace scored a record break ing production for the month just ended. The output for the month was 7194 tons, an increase of 1854 tons over the best previous record, which was made in October of last year, when the production was 6140 tons
 At Bessemer No. furnace equaled any previous record and, in fact, sur passed the best monthly production in its history by four tons.
