LAKE ORE SEASON
 NEARING THE END
THOUSANDS OF TONS OF STRUC- TURAL IRON HAVE BEEN OR
 DERED AND GOOD PIG IRON
 CONTRACTS HAVE BEEN MADE.

Cleveland, O.. October 2s.-(special.)- The Iron Trade Review will say tomor- row: The lake season is approaching its close with an unusual number of dis asters on account of heavy smoke due to the forest fires in the Lake Superior regions. During the past week six yes sels have gone ashore. It is anticipated that many boats will be taken out of commission early in November, although the election may result in some being used in the ore trade as late as the weather will permit The Steel corpora tion fleet has brought down little over F, 2,0OO 900 tons of ore, and has 1,5OO,OOO tons to ship but this tonnage may be in- creased should there be favorable indica- tions early in November. Increased ac- tiyity is pig iron is reported from nearly all centers
 The most important item of railroad buying was 24,OO0 tons of structural ma- terial for the approaches of the Chicago and Northwestern terminal at Chicago, awarded to the American Bridge com pany. The Bettendorf Axle company has contracted for 10000 tons for underframes, to be supplied by the Steel corporation and the Bethlehem Steel company.
 Some contracting, especially for pig iron. has undoubtedly been done in an- ticipation of the favorable outcome of the presidential election. but there is a strong. conservative feeling that it Is not wise to anticipate a decided improve ment in business next month.
 Very heavy structural business Is pending and proba ply 10000 tons will be let in the early future. Steady export trade conditions, a feature being the cor poration's heavy sales of wire products for Canada last week. ~s's sses
 The report of the corporation for the third quarter shows very encouraging increase in earnings.

John Sparks Show.

The Sparks circus drew large crowds to both the afternoon and night performances, despite the inclemency of the weather, and everyone was well pleased. The show is replete with some of the best acting ever seen under a tent, and taken all in all it is one of the best that has been to Bessemer for many a day.
 Edward Burger, Birmingham boy, has been travelling with the show for the past five years and bears the reputation of being the best equilibrist in the world The Valentino family, in their aerial re- turn and casting act, and the French Mil- lette troup, in their acrobatic stunts, are high-class artists and brought forth loud applause by the performance of some very novel and difficult feats.

A RETRACING OF STEPS.

It Is always much easier to make a blunder than 1t is to rectify It. That the summary dismissal Of the negro troops in connection with the Brown vile affair was a great political blun- der is now generally admitted by all persons regardless of their attitude to- ward the president. His message to congress yesterday followed by the an nouncement that bill will shortly be introduced into the senate is an ad- mission that the president himself rec ognixes that he made a tactical mis- take This recognition has been doubtless forced upon him by the de- cision of the senate committee on mill itary affairs. While he was sustained by a majority of the committee, that majority was made up In part by the solid democratic membership of the committed The president was op- posed by the majority of the republi- can membership. That fact would naturally go much farther with the negroes of the country than the fact that the democrats. their traditional enemies. alone gave the president his is the negroes and not public opinion that must be rlacated now.
 On what theory and on what con ditions the members of the battalion who were dismissed in disgrace after long years of faithful service and whose appeals from time to time to the presidents sense of justice were disregarded are now to be restored we cannot imagine. But whatever condition may be fixed for their res toration, the public will see behind it confession that a mistake was ma 'c in the order Of dismissal It cannot be understood that 1t will be a confession that injustice was done. That had al- ready been passed upon by the presl- dent and the war department and bA- came a thing, res adjudicata, as the lawyers say.
 II is difficult to understand why any conditions to restoration should be necessary or how they can be success fully imposed. So far as the individ- ual guilt of the members of the battal- lien is concerned. there is no difference in the reports of the committee. The report of the majority states that the
 
 members Of the battalion whose names . are unknown, whose guilt is therefore l improved and who under American law | are guiltless. The report of the mi | nority finds that the shots were not l fired by members of the battalion. The | investigation which MT. Foraker l caused to be instituted. in spite of the | obstacles placed in its way by the ad | ministration and the department which | were disposed to regard the incident l as forever closed. no evidence of a sat- adduced. It can hardly be supposed | that any can be procured now to dis tinguish the innocent from the guilty, | if any were guilty.
 If the negro soldiers should be re- stored, as they doubtless will be, to whom will the negroes of the country give credit for the restoration? To Il the presidents belated sense of jus tice? We think not. but rather to the incessant activity and opposition of MT. Foraker who has kept the subject Il Of the Brownsville wrong alive. II With many of them it will be a con lecture whether this tardy justice will 4 presidents conscience or the p 'esi- dential political interest. Il
