Tlio Iron Men.
On1i lGtli Inst., n cnll of the- plg
lroniininiifuctirers of the Lehigh Val
'lev ws Issued, requcstlnz' tlio gentle
sine l (presenting pig-iron companies
mod manufacturing firms to assemble
!o tlio rooms oftlio imerlcau Iron and
Steel Association, In Philadelphia, Nov.
24th, In pursuance of tlio call, a well
attended meeting was held,
Mr. W. II: .dlney, of the Lehigh Iron
Co., called tlio meellng to- order. Mr.
O. Dawson Coleman, of the Tvjbonan
I'urnacej, waselected clialrm?.n, nud
Mr. Geo. W. Cope, secretary, Mr. Ree
ves called upon Its authors to express
their views.
Mr. Alaey, prooeeded to address tlio
meeting. Ho said that th a noces slty of
tlio ca!l arose from the condition of
iiiuurs in, mo i,eiiign Valley. It wis
evident that If pig Iron furnaces went
on producing, ruin must result. lie
suggosted the formation of an " Iron
mongers' Exchange," a central body,
with branches Ir. producing centres, to
fix the price of pig Iron. With the ex
ception of one company, the production
Jiad been only one-half the capacities
of furnaces. The Allentown Iron Com
jny had run full all the year. If all
lie companies had run on shortor tlmo
tlio situation would have been better to
day. There was about a third of the
uisu&l demand except from pipe mills.
Various opinions were offered as to the
most proper aud wlso to pursue, but
the general feeling was that It is utterly
Impossible to keep the numbor of fur
.naces In blast at present In operation,
nud In tlio course of a few weeks tho
lesult will bo that a larue number must
bo blown out as thero is no demand
whatever for Iron.
Mr. Ainey then offere.l a series of
.resolutions, which were adopted, as fol
lows: Resolved, That It must be self-eiU
dent to all furnace owners that tho largo
u-uuuuun in me tiemami for consump-
tlon
of pig-iron imperatively demands
a corresponding reduction in theamount
produced, and that n contluuanco of the
present over production cannot fall to
result In accomplishing the ruin of the
trade.
iiesoiveu, That It Is tho opinion of
this meeting that an earnest effort ought
"i u umutuiaieiy ruaue to accomplish
the reduction of tho make of pig Iron,
ni d' with this vlow a comiultteo bo ap.
pointed to devise some plan to that end.
jicouireu, mat me coalman, pro
tern, of the pig Iron branch of the Am
erican iron and Steel association be re
quested to call a meeting of all the pig
Icon manufacturers of tho country at the
looms of the association on Thursday,
December 10, 1S74, at 11 o'clock a. m.
Revived, That a committee In each
of the several districts classified in the
list of irou workB bo appointed to wait
upon the furnaco owners therein, and
urge their attendance at tho general
meeting, and ascertain tho views of
those not able to attend.
The chairman appointed a the com
mittee named in tho resolutions the fol-Jowiugi-Wllliara
n. Ainey, Allentown;
C. S. Kauffman, Columbia; G. W.
Wliltaker, Hellertown; J.H. Moorhead,
Philadelphia: G. Dawson Coleman, Le
banon; II. S. Eckert, Reading, and
Horace Brooke, Baltimore.
Tho meeting theu adjourned.
Tlio Coal Regions.
A dispatch, dated, Scranton, Novem
ber 23rd, to the N. Y. Sun. says : The
labor market In these two valleys Is
glutted. Scranton lias a population of
00. 000 cannot now give steady employ,
nient to three thouand men. Carbon'
dale, sixteen miles distant; with a popu.
1. ttlon of 12,000, cannot employ one
thousand, and so It Is all along tho Lack
awanna valley. In Wyoming valley
the sltuitlon Is little belter, If we may
except rittiton. where the works of the
Pennsylvania Coal Company are kept
J mining In full blast. This Is the mo,t
successful coal corporation In the Unt
ied States. Below Pittston, however,
where tho coal worke are operated by
different Companies, the state of affairs
is not any raoro encouraging than here,
in nud near Scranton. In tlio Wilkes
lurre region thousand of men are out
of employment. In the face of a long
ami dreary winter, with large, helpless
Iniuilles, what wonder that men aro
lipondo3t and ewijy urged to tho
commission of crime!
"The mlues of the iOelawnro nnd
Hudson Company iu botuUio Wyoming
nnd Laokawanna valleys are running
only on three-fourth time, ond the pro
b'llty Is that they will within a few lays
reduce to halt time, as the supply if
coal Is Mr In excess of tho demaud.
Thus far the shipments of coal made by
that largo corporation falls over half a
million short of that shipped at tho cor
responding peilod lastyeat, and every
one knows that even last year was un
profitable for the coal trade, The cam
pauy's canal at Hoiiesdale, over which
large shlpuieuls of coal nro usually
made, will be cloied In a few days, nnd
(hit will siu-II tho number of tho uneru
1 Jymcnh,
it. r. mortiiimku,
"Owing to tho depressed condition of
tho market there will only be two-thirds
tho usual quantity, of coal stored at
Honesdalo this whiter, or nbout400,000
tons.
"Tho mines of tho Lackawanna Iron
and Coal Company are more than half
Idle, aud tlM only ono that was work
Ing three-fourth time has ceased opera
tious altogether under a strike. The
rolling mills of tho Lackawnnna Iron
and Coal Company have long been
repturoof tho Industrie.) of Scranton,
with tiiolr glowlug furnaces and (heir
ranges of shops, which cover an area of
several acres. Here, too, the ntm of
labor has hoen crippled by the palsy of
the panic, and thero Is no likelihood of
a revival this winter. Tho Delaware,
Lackawanna'and Western Company Is
ono of tlio most powerful mining cor
porations In tho Lackawanna valley.
1 he lulls and vales along this region
aro dotted with its collieries, nnd thrlv.
Ing settlements havo grown up around
many of these mines. But Its breakers
are mainly Idle; at others the men aro
working on half time; and elsewhere
they nro barely working quarter tlmo to
keep the machinery going."
'llio -Hitlers' Journal, published at
Pottsville, In its Issue of last Saturday
says .-Suddenly orders havo come from
Headquarters, for tlio managers of the
r. & R. C. & I. Co. 'a mining opera
tions to stop all colfcrles to-diy except
tho following ten: Brookslde, East
Franklin, Phoenix Park, Malianoy City,
Boston Run, Plank Ridge, Tunnel,
Jerriam, Mt. Carmel Shaft and North
Frankllu No. 1. We understand this
step is duo to tho fact that there' Is an
Immense stack of coal In all tho Com
pany's yaids, aud tho demand for It Is
not at all lively. In fact wo believe
tho supply on hand Is sufficient to sup.
ply all demands until spring shall bo
considerably advanced.
"The news of this suspension Is very
unwelcome at this tlmo, and will be sor
rowfully received. The people will see
the necessity of practicing strict encon
omy during tho winter now upon us."
Luzerne County.

A German named Long, residing at
i'etersourg, in tho Tenth Ward of this
city, died in the terrible agonies of hy
drophobia, on Jouday morning. He
showed symptoms ot the disease on
Saturday morning, being convulsed at
the sight of water, &o. Ors. Gumbort

Georgo Leouard, fireman on the ex
press train on tho D. L. & W. R. It on
which the express safe was robbed last
week, was nrrcsted on Saturday at Del
aware Station, by S. U. Stlllwell, on
saspiclon of being conuected with the
lobbery. It seems that on tho night of
the rouhery ho left tho euglue at tho
Junction aud returned to Dolawnre
Station on a coal train, evidently to se
cure tho hidden spoils, and on Saturday
camo to Seiacton. Thero Beeuis to be
little doubt of of his guilt. The total
loss by the robbery was 85,400, instead
of $12,000 as at first reported.
On Saturday afternoon as N. G. Ward'
