Don't fall to aticnd tbepubllc K. of L.
meetlug In Gabel't Hall, this (Friday) eve
ning. "Strikes" will be the subject ot an
Interesting talk.
It Is currently reported that the Lehigh
Stove Foundry, and also the Hersh Furnace
Company, will resume operations during
the coming week,
There is a veiltable coal famine In the
far Northwest, and It will stimulate coal
developments along these transcontinental
lines next season.
A comparison of the falliues In 1887
wllh thoso of provlous years shows the fi
nancial condition ot the country to be
steadily Improving.
There Is a complete business depression
In the Lehigh Valley. Monev is scarco,
and payments are slow. If the strike con
tinues much longer business failure will
be the result.
The Pennsylvania Company has re
cently ordered 15(50 box cars and 1800
gondolas, to be divided among Its four
shops at Altoona, Alleghany, Columbus
and Fourl Wayno.
For the week ending January 7, 1888,
there wero shipped over the Lehigh Sus
quehanna division of the C. R. R. of N. J
60,082 tons ot coal total tor jear 240,405,
the same lime last year, a dcciease of
220,77 tons as compared with same time
last year.
The Southern Pacific management
says that that company Is nbout a year be
hind In Its business, and that the order it
put out for cars and locomotives a year ago
ought to have been for double the number.
At Present it needs fifty more locomotive
than lt has.
The furnaces at Hat-ungie, Lehigh
county, have been banked owing to the
searclty of Lehigh coal. If the strike Is
not ended within the next five weeks tho
furnaces will be blown out. It is believed
that the fires can be kept banked for six
weeks at tho farthest.
Excitement is running high among Illi
nois coal operators, manufacturers, faimers
and speculators over the discovery of
splendid veins of coal, fire-claj;and a re
servoir of coal oil within 215 feet of the
surface. They wcro accidentally found
while water was being bored for during a
drought last summer.
It It not very pleasant to'know that the
Michigan Commissioners of Labor certify
that 43,070 of the 00,803 farms In that
Etate are carrying mortgages to the amount
of from 63 to 00 per cent, of their assessed
Valuation, and that the annual Interest
thus required to be met is more than twice
as much as all the taxos paid upon said
property.
Tho bulletin of the American Iron and
Steel Association shows that the production
of pig Iron in the United States In 1887 was
0,417,168 gross tons, and was much tht
largest In the history of the country. The
next largest production was In 18S0, when
5,083,320 gross tons were produced. Only
301,444 gross tons ot pig Iron remained
untold In the bands of makers rr their
agents at the close of December last.
Twenty-two States and one Territory made I
pig iron In 1887.
