Among those on the list are: Capt. Frank s. White, Judge s. D. Weakley, w. s. Welch, Nat l.. Miller. Sam Will John, George Bumgardner, R. T. Smith, Hugh McEniry, Horace c. Wilkerson, !. NJ.

The leaders are still confident of an overwhelming victory and claim sub stantial gains for their cause
 1sadore Shapiro. in speaking of the situation, said:
 The statement of the opposition that they were going to guard against dead men voting and other illegal methods at the polls is another indi- cation of the weakness of their cause.
 Whenever the leaders of a cause exclaim their apprehension of irregu- larities in elections it is the highest evidence of their fear of defeat. The opposition behol their defeat on the horizon. The function of overseeing elections devolves upon our county off cials, and it is a shameful reflection upon them to insinuate that irregular ities will be practiced. Do the oppo- sition question the honesty of the peo- pie? Didn't the opposition obtain rep resentation at the polls? Cant they trust their own mem
 'The opposition might as well be pra- pared to take their medicine. It will not require repeating to vote out blind tigerism and partisanism; they are doomed. It is simply a question of ma jority."

New York, August 9.-(SpeciaD. The
 Iron Age will say tomorrow While
 the market for steel products cannot be
 called active the fact remains that the
 large steel companies with perhaps one
 or two exceptions are operating a larger
 percentage of finishing capacity than at
 any time this year. The steel corporation
 Is now producing ingots at an 80 per cent
 rate. It's shipments and new orders In
 July exceeded those for any other month of the year and it Is expected that the tonnage statement of August 1 to be published August 10, will show a net gain of 250.O00 tons in orders on the books. Our pig iron statistics show that the July production apart from charcoal Iron was l. .793 O6s gross tons or 57,S4 tons day against ,7S5,5 ,566 tons, or 59,5S5 tons day In June.
 Merchant stocks were reduced in cas- tern Pennsylvania, Virginia, the south and in most other districts last month, so that the situation in foundry iron IS veering towards the sellers side.
 The firmer attitude of southern furn- aces has resulted in an advance of 20 cents in some markets on deliveries run ming through the year, though the S10 price for prompt shipment has not en- tirely disappeared. The Atlantic Coast Line has placed 1000 cars and various in- ouiries are still out on 12,000 to 14,O0 freight cars
 One sale of 10000 tons of rails was vir- tually closed this week.
 The structural situation is more prom ising In New York 16,000 tons of steel for the subway extension has been clos ed on the Bradley contracts.

MINOR OFFICIALS
 STILL UP IN AIR
Commission Will Not Hold the For nal Election Until Next
 Month

It has been definitely decided by the Board of Commissioners not to take up the election of city officials until Sep tember 1. It was believed that action would be taken as to the regular employ ment of the officials some time this month.
 The indications are that the severe cut ting practiced immediately after the com- missioners went into office will be suf- fcient for some time. They have let go almost as many employees as possible not to affect materially the efficiency of the city government. The disposition of the commission seems to be to make some changes in the engineering depart rnent. and perhaps in another depart ment, when the matter of final positions is taken up.
 Commissioner A. O. Lane gave out the information yesterday that the city would look into erecting a crematory at once felt here. and has been given careful study by the commissioners. It is believed that the plan to erect three crematories will be abandoned and only one large de- lated, it is understood. from drafts se- cured from various cities that have cre- matores.

.P|G IRON PRICES
 ARE HARDENING 21, ,000 Tons Rails Ordered From Tennessee Go. DEMAND INCREASING Ten Dollar Iron Becoming Very Scarce in Southern Territory.
 Steel Corporation Produc-
 ing at so Per Cent.

Cleveland, August 9.-(SpeciaD-The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will say: Pig iron prices are hardening on account of the recent increase in demand and mli activity continues but when any business of importance appears in finished lines strong competition and frequently con- siderably cutting of prices is noted. The decrease in the production of pig iron by. merchant furnaces continued at a greater rate during July than during the preceding month. During July P fur naces blew out of which 16 were mer- chant stacks while Il were non-merchant and only three merchant stacks blew In.
 In the east there Is a marked tendency toward firmer prices for pig iron and this Is true to a considerable extent in southern territory where s10 iron is now very scare. An eastern steel maker is in the market for from 25,00o to 30,000 tons of basic and a New England consumer has purchased 5000 tons from Virginia furnaces. Pipe companies In the Phila- delphia district are actively in the mar ket. The Westinghouse purchase of 13,- 300 tons of foundry grades is the most important transaction in the central west and established a price of s13.50 valley for No. foundry. Not in years have so many contracts for ships been pend ing in eastern territory. One company is now figuring on Is vessels which will require about 5000 tons.
 There has been a considerable revival of interest on the part of the railroads and a large number of inquiries for cars are pending. The Erie has practically closed for 45OO cars, including 2000 gon- dolas, 1000 box and 800 flat cars. dividing the order among the Pressed Steel Car company, the American Car and Foundry company and the Standard Steel Car company.
 The Atlantic Coast Line has placed eight postal cars with the Pressed Steel Car company. The Standard Steel Car company has received an order from the Atlantic Coast Line for 1000 cars. The Missouri Pacific has divided 50 all steel cars between the Pullman company and the American Car and Foundry company. The Southern railway has ordered 21,000 tons of open hearth rails from the Ten nessee company and has awarded the Cambria Steel company and the Nary land Steel company 5000 tons each. The St Louis and San Francisco has placed 400 tons of 65-pound rails with the Penn sylvania Steel company for 31 miles of new Track.

CITY OF TR|POu FALLS
suRRENDERs TO ITALIANS AFTER
TERRIFIC COMMANDMENT.
Turks, With Their Antiquated Guns
Put Up Desperate but Los
ing Fight.

Rome, Italy.-After fighting los
ing struggle against the heavy guns
of the Italian warships, the Turkish
troops in Tripoli abandoned their de-
molished Notifications, ran up the
white flag and retreated outside the
city, while Italy's flag, borne in tri-
umph by a large landing party, was
flung from the badly damaged gov.
ernor's palace. Italy had occupied the
Turkish city.
The bombardment bringing about
this epoch-making event in the
worlds history was extended over
more than a day, with frequent cessa
tion to give the Turks an opportunity
to surrender and to prevent any un
necessary loss of life. There were
many fatalities among the Turks who
heroically defended their ancient for
tresses, but the Italian fleet and its
men escaped without damage. The
information Of the victory came to
Rome by wireless from Admiral Au
brey on board the flagship Giuseppe
Garabaldi, and when the news was
officially announced by special edi.
tions of the evening papers the crowds
in the streets went wild with enthu-
siasm.
The report on the bombardment of
Tripoli Shows that the Italian gunners
| displayed most excellent marksman-
ship. The first few shots from the
Italian warships were well placed and
only few of them were necessary to
work havoc to the Turkish fortifica-
| tions. Another feature of significance
is that the Italians did not use their
| heaviest guns in the work of demol-
| ishing the forts. The large guns
were considered unnecessary and the
work was done by the smaller arms.
With obsolete guns and protected
only by the crumbling walls of an
| tiquated fortresses, the Turks sustain.
ed for hours terrible bombardment
from the Italian fleet. Although they
must have known that the fight was
hopeless from the first, the Turkish
troops stood gallantly to their guns
| The shots from their ancient short.
range ordnance fell far short of the
attacking warships, but the Turks OBJ
| stinately refused to surrender 1t was
only when the forts had ceased to be
anything but piles of ruins, when the
governors palace had been demol
ished, and the military barracks were
blazing, that the garrison finally with
drew. They commenced an orderly
retreat toward the hills, but could moi
withstand the hail of shrapnel from
the Italian ships. They were forced
to break their ranks and fee pell-mel
to what shelter they could reach.
