The Slatlngton Rolling Mill Com.
pany report business good and pros
necta better. Thev now furnish om
ployment for more than one hundred
men, and have a pay roll of $1,400 a
week. A commendable feature is the
weekly pay. The company is making
money. The mills had to close down
the first of the week, owing to tho non
arrival of ore ordered, out aro now
running mil time again.
This is the very same mill that Lo
hlghton could have had It somo ot oar
people had only given it the proper
encouragement. The people see what
we havo missed and it is enough to
mako a fellow feel like kloking himself
all over the town. The same spirit
that kept the rolling mill away Is just
now keeping other industries at a dis
tance. It;is unfortunate forLohighton.
A notice ooraa the rounds of tho
newspaper reads like this:
"H. B. Parke, president of tho
Gregory Silk Manufacturing Company,
of Patterson, N. J. is looking for a
good town with a view of removing the
company's plant f.rom Patterson."
We would like to know why Lohigh

enterprise ? Hero wo have every thing,

$ Why should not the railroad com

such legends as these "Entrance,"

Such a scheme followed up might bo

SHnccr fur Leader.
WASHi.VGTr v, Dec, 14. Tho positive state
ment la made here by a man very near to
Speaker Crisp that Roger Q. Mills will not
Do appointed cnairman or the committee on
ways and moons. By his own acts he has
made the appointment practically impossi
ble from tue standpoint or hpeaker Crisp,
William M. Springer will be named for the
position, by virtue of which he will become
leader or the house.
It is alleged that Mr. Mills' unfortunate
temperament made it impossible for him to
control his anger over his defeat and he has
taken no pains to conceal his discomfiture.
On the contrary lie has improved every
opportunity to make manireht a sullen ana
uncompromising attitude toward the ad
ministration of his successful competitor.
His friends, if not himself, it Is said, have
taken it for granted that Speaker Crisp
would be obliged to oner mm nu oia posi
tion as chairman of the ways and means.
Acting upon this assumption they have even
cone so far as to Insist that he and not tho
speaker should name his colleagues. This
would not only give Mr. Mills absolute con
trol of action on the tariff, but would place
In his hands the power to direct the busi
ness or the house, irrespective or the speak
er's judgment.
Recent precedent has made tho chairman
of the ways and means a member of the
committee on rules. That committee com
prises the speaker, two Democrats and two
Republicans. Without the unqualified sup
port of both Democrats the speaker Is help
less. Mr. Mills, therefore, would be master
of tho situation. Mr. Crisp would be a mere
figurehead.
Right there is the rock upon which Mr.
Mills' craft has broken. It is not a question
of personality, but of party policy. Mr.
Mills believes ono course to be right. Mr.
Crisp favors, and was elected, ho behoves.
to enforce another quite different. To give
to Mr. Mills the power which he would have
as chairman of the ways and means would
mean a disregard of the judgment of tho
majority which elected Mr. Crisp.
Another M11U 11111.
The etfcontlal difference in opinion as to
policy Is readily understood. Mr. Mills in
sists that the first duty of the party is to
place itself upon record as opposed to tho
McKlnley bill as a whole and In favor of
another measure as distinct as the ono
which bore his name In 183. He would
frame another Mills bill, pass it in the house.
let it die in the senate and go before the
country on the issue thus made. This plan
does not meet with speaker Crisp approval.
Speaker Crisp's Idea of the true policy la
this: introduce ana pass eitner one snort,
compact bill, or several very brief measures
of whoso meaning there can be no possible
doubt; strike at the root of the question by
putting wool, salt, binding twine and a few
other of the most Important articles which
are designated as raw material upon the
free list and stop there.
Then see what the northwestern Repub
lican senators will do. The chances are
more than ever that the number compelled
by the convictions of themselves or their
constituents to support the measure would
be sufficient to send the bill to tho presi
dent. He might sign or veto it. Approval
would testify to the strength of the Demo
cratic position. A veto would lose to the
Republicans who bliall say how many west

FIELD ARRESTED AGAIN.
De Ii Now Charged with bleating Over
100,000 In Sfockt and Ilondi.
Nkw York, Dec, 10. Edward M. Field
was Indicted by the grand jury yesterday
for the larceny of 150,000 in bonds from the
Union Pacific Railroad company. Just after
being released on ball ou that charge he was
arrested for stealing over 1100,000 worth of
securities from R. Ii Dietz. On those two
charges Mr. Field Is held accountable for
Drer 1150,000 worth of bonds and stocks,
they were given to him in the transaction
ef legitimate business by persons who had
faith in his honor and in tho honor of the
firm of Field, Lindley, WIechers & Co.
Within the hut year Mr. Field has had in
trusted to him over 2,0U),0U0 in money,
bonds and stocks that the owners thereof
have had no profit therefrom, and that now
they do not know where the money, bonds
and stocks are. These people havo been ap
parently robbed of over $8,000,000. Where
it has all been placed they do not know;
whether Field has put some or most of It
away, as Ferdinand Ward is supposed to
have done with his gigantic stealings, they
do not know, and further, they do not
know whether they are ever going to get
any of It back.
No Hope for Cyrus W. Field.
New Yohk, Dec. 17. Cyrus W. Field is

ant from the degradation which has over

Eatlent's ultimate recovery. Mr. Field will,

0I1ILI IS AFFER DELAY.
SHE WANTS TIME TO GET IN WAR
LIKE SHAPE.
Naval Mea at Washington Antlous to
Have the President Checkmate This
Scheme by Tatting a Warlike Stand.
Senators Favor IolngWhat Italy Did.
Washington, Dec. 10. The navy depart
ment is in a warlike mood. At all events
the principal naval authorities are talking
war fortissimo Just now. Prom the talk In
the department today it appears that inti
mations have been received from good au
thorities in and alxmt Chill that the Chilians
are delaying their response to our demand
for Information concerning the Valparaiso
Incident for the purpose of gaining time In
which to prepare for war with this country.
Getting a 11 Iff Warship Ueady.
The Inference is that If Chill can persuade
the United States to wait a few weeks longer
or until the most formidable new war v ea
sel of the Chilian fleet, the Capltan Prat, Is
completed and equipped sho will be better
prepared fur hostile demonstration. The
situation thus outlined was discussed with
eagerness at tho navy department.
Tue opinion was frt-cly advanced thnt
President Harrison would in all likelihood
take measures to checkmate Chill in this
matter by sending n special messago to con
gress within the next two weeks, reciting
the fact that explanation and reparation luul
been demanded of Chill without avail, and
proclaiming the necessity of Informing Chili
that this country will resort to extreme
moobures if the desired response is further
delayed beyond a reasonable and speclflod
time.
8he Could Hombnrd Our Cltle.
Tills courso would take tho Chilians short
banded and would prevent them from get
ting possession of the Crtpitan Prat. This
vessel Is now building In France and cannot
be finished In lens than two months. If
meanwhile President Harrison nnd con
gress should cause a declaration of war
against Chili, it would prevent Franco from
dellvoriug the Capital! Prat to Chill, and
would save New York and our other At
lantic cities from the danger of bombard
ment by that vessel. The navy peoplo say
that this action is what may reasonably bo
expected from tho president. They also
profess to have received intimations that
the Chilians havo been litely communicat
ing with Trench builders with a view to
hurrying along the construction of tho
Capltan Prat.
The sentiment among public men today
regarding this matter Is far lees wailike
than that which pervades the navy depart
ment. Leading senators and representa
tives believe tliat the preferable course of
action would bo to give Minister Montt his
pawports, recall Minister Dgan nnd tormi
na to official Intercourse with Chill unless
she speedily comes to terms.
