the good and removing the bad. For
the past four years, economy has
been the watchword of the city admin
istration. Under my last term as
mayor the city paid $4,000 in debts
contracted under the previous Demo
cratic administration. And all that
that administration did was to i'm
prove West Second street. 1t was this
question that defeated me in that cam
paign. The voters in that part of the
city refused to support me because
would not promise to put this i'm
provement through with the public
funds. I had already made the neces-
sary arrangements with the railroad
companies, so that the required i'm
provements would have been made
without taking the money from the
public purse"
You are all right, Doc" shouted a
voice from the crowd.
Pays Respects to Press.
The mayor then paid his respects
to the Richmond newspapers whom.
he charged, had disrupted the party
in Wayne county in order to follow "a
disgruntled Office seeker" Mr. Zim-
norman in his remarks on this phase
of the subject, gave it as his belief
that the Progressive wave has already
passed its high tide and is surely re-
ceding He based his belief upon the
fact that 1000 less voters participated
in the Progressive primary last June
than voted the ticket at the last cleo
ton.
1T has been said that I am not a
Republican" continued Mr.. thinner
man. Il am a Republican, and have
always been one Didn't have Taft's
picture in my window all through the
last campaign? And when I am re-
elected, as l will be, (cheers) | will

A DELAY FOR JEROME.

COATICOOK, Ont, Sept 6.-Form-
er District Attorney William Travers
Jerome of New York, who was arrest
ed yesterday on charge of gambl-
ing, failed to respond when his case
was called today and on application
of his attorneys weeks delay was
granted.
There was a big crowd present but
there was no demonstration. Under
the law delay of eight days is per-
missable before bail is forfeited.
Magistrate Mckee made a little
speech which pleased the crowd great
ly. Il am pleased to grant this delay"
he said, but want it understood that
this apparent triflins with the court
does not please me. This is a serious
matter. 1t is charged that the law
has been broken and We will make no
distinction of persons. The guilty man
must be punished"
Jerome's Bail Continued.
Jeromes bail of $500, furnished by a
local hotel keeper was continued.
1t is reported and not denied that
another warrant has been issued for
Jerome. This warrant is said to
charge him with premeditation to for
felt his bail
When all this information was COM
municated to Thaw the fugitive was
jubilant. He sent out and bought the
finest cigars in the city and handed
them around with lavish generosity.
He praised the Canadian people and
Canadian justice and talked sarcasti-
cally about Mr.. Jerome. Il have moth
ing but sympathy for the learned eoun-
sci of the Chicken Trust said Thaw.
Thaw is beyond question a popular
idol here. Crowds surround his quart
ers in immigration detention rooms all
the time. A force of uniform police
was sent here from Montreal to re-
main as long as Thaw does.
1t is evident. officials realize, that
the crowd of pro-Thaw people only
need a leader to start something
Worked up to the proper pitch Thaw'
sympathizers undoubtedly would at
tempt to storm the immigration build
ing and release Thaw.
The impression prevailed that Je-
rome will not come back, but would
forfeit his bail. There is no fine at
tached TO the penalty of gambling and
If found guilty Jerome would have to
go to jail unless his sentence was sus-
pended.

Brown County Man Accused
of Frightening His Child
to Death.
(National News Association

NASHVILLE, Ind, Sept. g. Hanni-
bal Taggart who was tried here this
week on a second degree murder
charge and who was alleged to nave
caused the death of his daughter, Nor
ma Taggart, was acquitted at five
o'clock this morning.
& The case went to the jury at six
o'clock last night. The contention of
the prosecution was that Norma's s
death was due to fear caused by cruel
treatment. The jury, however, did not
take this view, although it was con-
tended that the girl was whipped so
often she became nervous wreck and
finally went into commissions that
ended har life.

assistant secretary, although it has
been insistently rhmored that the di-
rectors were considering Offering the
position to Ora Highlands, who has
been in the association office for some
time.
P. Paul Pearse, the new physical di-
rector, outlined in general way the

eral way, the program which he an
nounced was to get in close touch with
ali the men and boys in and out of the
association, to build up all the classes
in physical training, and to organize
a leaders class. Other plans, he said,
he had in mind, but did not care to
discuss them until he had become &C

the present day are larger, higher,
and wider than those installed In ear
lieer times. The charging capacity of
the original ovens at Syracuse was
"A tons of coal and the time required
fer coking was "a hours. Even at that
time a gain Of at least so per cent in
coking time was obtained compared
with beehive practice, which required
As hours for the production Of furn.
ace coke and 70 hours for the produc-
ton Of foundry coke.
The Semet-Solvay oven of today
hold at the average about 16 tons of
coke. The exact capacity depends Of
course on the specific gravity of the
Goals used. The original 60 Otto-Hoff
mann ovens at Johnstown. had a
charging capacity Of about 1-2 tons
each. The latest installation Of Uni
ted Otto ovens at Mayville, Wis, in
1912 have an average capacity Of
10. 33 tons of coal each. The coking
time has been materially reduced, so
that excellent furnace coke is now
made in 16 to IS hours. The devel.
opment of modern mechanical appli.
ances has also done much to forward
the efficiency Of the retort oven aud
to reduce the labor necessary per un'
It Of output. The same crew Of men
who 20 years ago were required to
handle rs Of the small ovens and who
were carbonizing say 10 tons OF
coal day are able with modern equip
ment to handle 80 or more of the
larger ovens, coking 1000 tons Of coal
day. This represents an increase
Of about nine-fold in the tonnage car
bombed per man employed. These de
velopments have been accompanied
by marked improvements in by-pro
duct recovery in the manufacture OF
ammonia and other by.products. Tween
ty years ago the only ammonia re
covered was in the form of crude
liquor running from IL to Is per cent
ammonia. Now coking plants are pro.
ducing ammonia liquor ranging from
crude through the different grades
required for the manufacture of flame
less powder, ETC., to the production
of almost chemically pure acqua am
monia at one operation. Still anoth
er marked development In by-produc
oven practice is in the adaptation o
the surplus gas to the illumina'
cities and towns. In the earlier day
the ovens produced only small ant

varying quality. Today oyproduct
ovens in the United States are selling
from 40 to so million cubic Feet Of
gas day for Illuminating purposes.
Almost the entire supply of gas in
some cities Is derived from retort
ovens. Among these cities may be
specially mentioned Boston, Mass. :;
Camden, N. j.; Indianapolis. Ind. !;
Hamilton. Ohio; Baltimore, Md; Du.
luth, Mimi; South Chicago, Ill. and
Milwaukee, Wis.
Until 1908 the Semet Solvay and
United Otto (Otto-Hoffmann) ovens

liet, ILL.,, 14o Koppers regenerative by.
product ovens. This plant was dou-
bled in the following year and a mum.
Der Of other plants of this type have
since been constructed in different
parts Of the country. In 1909 construc.
ton was begun on 800 Didier ovens
at South Bethlehem, Pa, but they had
not been put into blast at the close
Of 1912. During 1912 bank of 20
klonne ovens were completed at Nun.
Gle, Ind. At this plant all the gas
from the ovens is supplied to the city
Of Muncie. The ovens are heated
with producer gas made from the
coke. Two recent installations Of Sc.
ment-Solvay ovens, one at Waukegan,
H., and the other at Indianapolis,
Ind. are constructed on the same
plan.

A. the Coke

Washington, June 27.--It is now 20
years since coke was frs, manufac-
tured in by-product ovens in the Uni.
ted States. BY this process all the
products Of the coal are conserved
first Of course the coke, but also
large quantities Of coal tar, ammonia,
gas, and other constituents. It is as
serted that in the by-product coke
plants Of the present day the by-pro-
ducts pay the cost Of the process
that Is that the coke is clear gain.
The old method Of coke-maxing, by
means Of the beehive oven. which Is
in fact still largely in use allows all
these valuable by-products to waste
absolutely.
The first plant using the by-prod.
uct or retort type Of oven WAS install.
ed at Syracuse, N. Y, in May, 1893,
according to Edward w. Parker OF
the United States Geological Survey.
This pioneer plant consisted Of II
Semet Solvay ovens and produced in
that year 1880 tons Of coke. The
plant has since been increased to 40
ovens. The second by.product plant
to be constructed was one Of go Otto
Hoffman ovens at YOUNGSTOWN, Pa.
From these small beginnings the by
product branch of the coking industry
has grown steadily. new plants being
added each year until ut the close OF
1912 there we're 5,061 ovens Of this
type in operation and the production
of retort coke for the year was 11,O4s
4S9 tons, or little more than one
fourth of the total output. The max
ing of by product coke has materially
developed along other lines than in
the simple building Of new ovens and
increased production. The ovens Of
