Bio Year in Iron and Steel.

The tremendous activity that is eX-
pected in the movement of Lake SUI
perior iron ores is indicated by the
announcement that the steel corpora
ton has chartered vessels to move
$1,000 900 tons, while it will move
about 100000 tons in its own yes
sells, this making the immense tom
mage Of 100000 tons for the leading
interest. 1t is confidently expected
that independents intNests will move
100000 tons making aigrand total
of 100000 tons. Ore freight rates
have been advanced five cents per ton,
and the charges paid by vessels for
unloading have been reduced five
cents per ton. so that on basis Of a
movement OF 100000 900 tons, vessels
will have receipts of $5,000,000 great
er than under the schedule of last
year of ore freights in unloading
charges.
A very heavy volume Of inquiry for
pig iron is pending in the central
west, and some orders Of good size
have been taken.
Specifications for finished products
are running in very satisfactory
volume to makers, although in tubu-
lar and wire goods conditions are
rather quiet because buyers are very
comfortably fixed with stocks on
hand. Orders against contracts in
sheets are probably of the largest
volume

To curb Water power Rates.

Almost every section of the coun-

the preliminary report of the general
waterways commission, submitted to
congress.

among other things:

water power, with the shaping of
projects in the light Of future needs
of streams.
Resort to federal and state legis-
lation rather than to unnecessary
channel Improvement merely 10 en-

HOUSE WRECKED;
TWO ARE DEAD
BRICK RESIDENCE DEMOLISHED
BY EXPLOSION OF AcETY-
LENE GAS PLANT.
MAN BURIED IN RUINS.
Wife, Two Babies and Sister Flee;
All Injured and One Little One Dies;
Other One is Not Expected to Live.

An explosion wrecked the brick
residence of Scott Parker, one mile
north OF Moscow, a village on Lake
Shore branch in the extreme north
ern end OF Hillsdale county. killing
Parker and one of his children and
injuring his wife and child also an
aunt OF the children who lived with
the family. Three other children OF
the family were out of the house.
The dead body of Parker was dug
out of the ruins. The second injured
child is believed to be dying.
From reports that are coming IN
from the excited farmers OF that VI
cinity it appears that Parker went
down cellar shortly after the three
older children had left home for
school
HE went down there TO fill the
tank of the acetylene gas plant is
what Mrs. Parker says
The acetylene plant evidently ex-
ploded. Mrs. Parker, the children,
Louise, aged G. and Nellie, 3, and the
aunt, Parker's sister, were in the Nv
ing room when there was a loud re-
port in the cellar. the house floor
heaved up, and then the walls began
to fall in on them. The two women
grabbed each a child and scrambled
across the caving floor TO an outer
door and escaped. just as the ava
lanche of bricks descended on them.
1t was their prompt fight that saved
their lives. AS it was, Mrs. Parker
suffered a broken leg and cuts on the
head, and both of the children had
both arms and legs broken. Nellie
died. The aunt received lesser in
juries.
Nearby neighbors heard the explo-
sion and the news spread with the
rapidity of a message conveyed by the
wireless telegraph. In brief inter
val there was a crowd at the scene
OF the wreck. II was a wreck, for the
entire brick house had tumbled in
ruins into the cellar.

The family was TO leave on the two
O'Clock train from Broad street station,
so the mother was all in furry as
she hurried the children in a certain
West Philadelphia home.
Now, children, get everything ready
before luncheon" she said. Don't
leave everything until the last min
ute"
And the children said they wouldn't.
Luncheon ended, they hurried into
their wraps and started. In the hall
the mother said;
Edward, you didn't brush your

Had the mildness of the weather in
November anything to do with the
lightness of the fire loss during that
month in Canada and the United
States? The aggregate for the month
was only $14,SOS $50, which in round
numbers was $4,000, 900 below October,
and which was lower than the fire loss
in any month last year except Deem
Der. and lower than for any month in
the current year except March and
June. The year 1909 undoubtedly is
going to make creditable record as

first IL months of 1909 has been $685.

of 1908 and $16,0OO,OOO less than dur

MEAT FAST SPREADING.
From Coast to Coast Organizations Of
All Kinds Decide to Boycott Meat.

From the agitation started by The
Detroit Free Press in regard to the
greatly increased cost of living in
America. the inquiry into the causes
OF this condition has spread through
out the United States and Canada.
The resultant food strike. started in
Cleveland, has assumed nationwide
proportions
tracted universal attention the people
of the state awakened TO the fact that
new economic problem confronted
them, other newspapers in the United
States took the matter up, setting on
foot an agitation that has not been
paralleled in recent newspaper his
tory. The efforts of the several news
papers brought about the determine
ton by the legislature of Ohio to in
vestigate the cost of living In that
state, which is shortly to be accom-
plished by committee appointed es-
pecially for that purpose: and the
simultaneous beginning Of an inquiry
by the associated boards Of commerce
OF the state Of New York.
There are also two federal investi-
cations under way: Congress at Wash
ington has undertaken a national
probe OF the momentous question, and
in the Canadian parliament at Ottawa
an act has been introduced proposing
to expedite the prosecutions Of combi.
nations under suspicion of unduly en-
HANGING the price of necessary food
stuffs.
The strike against the eating OF
meat arose from Joking remark in
the lunch-room OF large Cleveland
factory. Now this meat strike has all
Ohio in its grasp and is affecting chief
cities in all parts of the country.
Dispatches from Baltimore, Kansas
City. Omaha. Memphis. Pittsburg and
other cities told of the rapid growth
Of the meat fast. Cleveland now has
100000 names enrolled, while Kansas
City reports $4,000

The statement showing a decrease
in the exports of food products and
certain other articles during Septem-
Der does not imply that there was q
falling off in other exports. Such was
not the case. The total exports from
the United States for September were
$153.S90,0 900, a gain of $14, 563, 900 COM
pared with the same month last year.
This means that an exceptionally large
proportion of exports represented
manufactures, the work of the best
paid skilled labor For the nine months
ended with September there was an
increase of $270,O2O,OO0 in imports and
something of a decrease in exports as
compared with the like period the year
before. But the increase in exports
for September shows that the tide is
turning. And as it is there is an ex-
cess of S92 $4,000 in exports over i'm
ports for the nine months. There are

ELIMINATION OF "HELLo."

The matter OF greetings at the tele-
phone has figured in various philo-
sophie d.sQuisitions. to say nothing of
casual comment upon a thousand lips.
The Hottest flight which this interest
ing topic ever achieved, we believe,
was in a late novel of very high life.
wherein the aristocratic millionairess
was represented as shuddering to the
very core of her refined being when
addressed over the telephone by the
vulgar "Hello!" We presume that the
untaught individual on the other end
should have opened proceedings with
Greetings" Happy Days!" May it
please your loneliness" or some such
piece Of elegance. But to the most of
us "Hello!" has been good enough and
indeed sweet and satisfying word.
Why is it, then, that the word is slow
ly vanishing from the wires? Simply
because in this sordid age-when Sec
onds are esteemed more highly than
healt.. or happiness-the elimination
Of "Hello!" makes for speed. AS an
emoEent, a lubricant and saponifier
no criticism of the word has been Of
fered. There is something about the
liquidity of its utterance which COM
bines a sufficiency of shout with a
maximum of grace. Such polished
thoughts are of no avail with the tele-
phone directors, however. Save in rare
circumstances, no 'Hello!" is now al
lowed to cross centrars lips.
