A DROP IN EARNINGS
Street Cars Desired and Or
dered by Roads Makes
Industry Smile.

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov 1.-THE order for
1000 steel cars for the Pittburg and
lake Erie railroad has been placed
with the American Car and Foundry
company The Pressed Steel Car COM
pany was the successful bidder for
1000 cars of the steel type for the
Grand Trunk railway of Canada. The
order was signed this week Another
order which the Pressed Steel Car COM
pany expects 10 get is for 2,000 steel
cars for the Carolina, Lynchfield and
Southern railroad. Because of some
technicalities yet remaining to be deter
mined, the officials of the car company
win not admit the actual acceptance of
the order. The orders above noted ag-
gregate $5.o0o,oo0.
A feature of the Grand Trunk order
Is in the placing of the order for the
steel plates for the cars with the Car
uegie Steel company, the total amount
ing to about 100000 tons and adding to
already good booking of orders of this
kind by the Homestead mills.
With the car business picking up, ii
not only affects the steel plate mills
but every form OF railroad equipment
as there will be for the total car or
ders placed approximately 5000 sets
of air brakes and 10000 car wheels fol
the new equipment, most OF which will
be supplied by Pittsburg shops.

BODY OF JAMES M'CAFFERY
SENT TO OHIO FOR BURIAL.
Was Employed AS Roller in the Repub-
lie Miils-Sudden Death Is Greatly
Deplored BY Many Friends

East Chicago, Ind, Nov. 13.-(SpeciaD
The remains of James. McCaffery, Of
the Yoyce hotel, were taken to the for
mer home of the deceased, in Leetonia.
O., yesterday where they will be buried
in the family lot in Leetonia cemetery.
Mr.. McCaffery, who was a roller at
the Republic mills. dropped dead just
outside the company's office Wednes-
day afternoon, heart failure being des-
ignated by Coroner E. r. Gordon as the
case of his death. McCaffery has re-
Gently submitted to an operation upon
his eye, and was confined to ST. Mar
garet's hospital until t1re weeks ago
with an affiiction of the eye. 1t is
thought that this may have weakened
the action of his heart and assisted in
fastening his death He was IS years
of age.
Mr.. McCaffery is survived by six chill
dren, one of whom, William McCaffery,
is employed as weighmaster of the Re-
public mills. The other members of the
family are in Leetonia, o., their mother
having died several years ago. Mr.. Nc
Caffery was one of the many pleasing
employees of the local mill, his per-
sonality winning for him the friendship
of everyone with whom he came in con-
tact. His death removes from the daily
councils of his fellow-workmen a man
who has always been actively allied
their AFFILIATED working interests. and
the hand of sympathy is extended to
the members OF the bereaved family.

the efforts of Crown Point men cannot
be underestimated.
Mr.. Brown Is Optimistic.
John Brown, through whose efforts
and instrumentality, the success of the
venture up to date is largely respon-
sible, in an interview with a TIMES re-
porter yesterday, said:
Il am very optimistic concerning
Crown Points chances of securing in
terurban service to Gary, but it would
be rather hazardous to try and specify
the time when the actual service will
be commenced. The promoters have
been up against adverse conditions
since last fall in financing the project
and our local men have met with con-
ditions at the Gary end of the line
that have been unfavorable to the
early construction of the road-the
Calumet bridge. widening of the road,
and the inability of the promoters to
come to any agreement with the trac-
ton company at Gary being largely
responsible for the delay. A meeting
with the promoters of the Valpo line
was scheduled for yesterday afternoon
and probably will be productive of re-

Herman E. Sasse, the local real es

THE meeting today of the Valpo

that every one is awake to the needs
of an early construction of the line,

FRIDAY, THE 18TH, IS HERE;
SUPERSTITIOUS IN DREAD.
Millions of Fingers Are Crossed to
Ward or Dangers.

Again have the fates, with the aid of
the sun and the moon and the calendar

the evil omens that exposes the world
for twenty-four hours to the unbridled
and battered Vaccinations of spooks
and hobgoblins. 1t is Friday, the 13th.
At midnight the motley throng lined the
border between the known and I'M
known, and at the stroke of the hour
in they rushed. On whom will they
elect to hang the Indian sign? What
fitting event will mark the day? Will
the kaiser apologize? VIII some grid

the crucial contest? VIII the milk

COMING SLOW AND SURE
Prosperity Is Not Hitting
the Pike with Leaps
and Bounds.

Cleveland, Nov. 1.-THE Iron Trade
Review says: Prosperity is not COM
ing with leap and a bound, but slow
ly and surely. Sentimentally, the iron
and steel market has taken on a re-
newed spirit which may logically eat
tributed to a satisfactory outcome of
the presidential election; actually,
there has been an increased movement
in some lines the last week, but there
has been little excitement.
TT is apparent, however, that condi-
tions are shaping themselves for more
support of the industry by some classes
of large consumers, notably the rail-
roads, which have been affording but
little strength during the last year
Makers of steel rails have just re-es-
tab1ished the present prices of s2S on
Bessemer and $50 on open hearth rails
to apply on deliveries in 1909. Such
action is taken by the manufacturers
each year whenever 1t is apparent that
the railroads are interested as to MAX
ing contracts, and as a consequence, the
placing of large rail orders is expected
soon. Necessity for equipment re-
placement is bringing the steam roads
more frequently into the car market
| The effect of the improved sentiment
in the market has been manifested by
heavy inquiry and an advance in pig
| iron prices.
Exaggerated expectations of wide
spread resumption OF idle capacity i'm
mediate1y following the election have
not been borne out. and the mills are
running at about their usual gait

WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE
WEAK BODIES.


As one weak link weakens a chain, SO
weak kidneys weaken the whole body
and hasten the final breaking down.
Overwork, strains, colds and other
causes. injure the kidneys, and when
their activity Is lessened the whole
body suffers from the excess of uric
poison circulated in the blood.
Aches and pains and languor and
urinary ills come. and there is an ever
increasing tendency towards diabetes
and fatal Bright's disease. There is no
real help for the sufferer except kid
ney help.
Doan's Kidney Pills act directly on
the kidneys and cure every kidney i'll.
Hammond cures are the proof.
Mrs c. Wise. of 4o7 Indiana avenue,
Hammond, Ind. says: Il was told by a
friend that Doan's Kidney Pills were a
fine remedy for kidney trouble and on
her suggestion, / purchased a box at
Bicknell & Co.'S drug store. I began
taking them as directed and in a couple
of days could see that l was being
benefited. The pain in my back was
less severe, the kidneys were more reg
uIar in action and I felt much stronger.
After a weeks use the pain had entirely
disappeared from my back and this en-
couraged me. I continued untid en-

word for Doan's Kidney Pills when !
