"One time when he was work

to me, DO you want a load of
good wood? They're tearing
down building on Harrison
street and l can get a lot of fine
hard wood. ! said yes.
"But we never got any wood.
And the next day, Teddy drove
up with a big truck and unloaded
a whole load in the Conlisk yard.
I guess he told Mabel he was go

she told him he better bring it to
her.
THAT load of wood made so

When Teddy went to strikebreak-

house and would have nothing
more to do with him.
After that when Teddy came
to see the Conlisk girl he always
carried his guns. He would take
them out and flourish them, show
them around. He knew the peo-
pie around there wouldn't let
him come around if he didn't have
his guns with him.

be a success as the best year in the
history of local baseball was when the

may not be reached this year.
1t Is estimated that an imme diate de-
mand for $4,000 tons of standard rails
will result directly from the floods.
The Pennsylvania and Baltimore and
Ohio put in emergency acquisitions last
week for large tonnages of standard
sections for immediate delivery at Ohio
and Indiana points. The monetary
damage to mills and industrial plants
does not seem to have been large and
will total millions OF dollars less than
was at first estimated. the main loss be-
ing in the time the plants lost. In the
iron and steel industry the loss of
tonnage is permanent. since the mills
are practically sold up for the year.
Owing to the uncertainty as to the
time for starting many of the finishing
mills in the flooded zone, the pig iron
market at the close of the week was
uncertain. with some selling below
previously recognized levels in steel
making and foundry irons. IT is be-
lieved the weeks movement IN the steel
making irons in Western Pennsylvania
and Ohio aggregated close to 100, 900
tons. The realized price at furnace of
some 10000 tons of basic iron was SIC.
or % cents under previous levels. while
bessemer sold down to $17.10 valley
furnace. a loss of Is cents from the last
of March levels.
| In sheets and tin plate the loss In
tonnage is easily the heaviest, for fully
one-half the sheet and tin plate mill 3
in operation were closed for ten days or
longer. Fresh deliveries of crude bars
for these mills also is uncertain. as
some of the makers of open hearth
crude stel for the open market have not
yet resumed, while others have changed
over a part of their sheet bar capacity
to rails because of the sudden demand
for emergency shipments for track re-
pair. Premiums have reappeared n
sheets and tin plate. and Will easily
rule for prompt deliveries for several
weeks at least.
| The effect of the foods on the steel
market as a whole will easily be the
most important factor of the month.
aside from the tonnage loss. For in
stance, hundreds of miles OF wire fence
was destroyed on railroad and private
property Several hundred miles of oil
and gas pipe line also was washed out
which must be Immediately replaced.
