1 WS"" npFTer '"nSlmW -," f THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY, JULY 30, 1890. 31 PEICES OF PRODUCTS. Official Comparison of the Cost of Commercial Commodities. COST OF IRON HERE AKD ABROAD. Eagland Pajs Less Than Half as Huch. for labor as is Paid Here. IfiADEAKDTfiAFFIC TEESELI TREATED The Department of Labor has issued a preliminary report relating to the cost of producing pig iron, steel ingots, steel rails, coal, coke, iron ore and limestone in this country and Europe. The report is the initial of a series which the department is preparing under the act of June, 1888, which provided that the Commissioner of Labor should ascertain the cost or producing articles, dutiable at the time, in the United States and in such countries as those articles are produced. The preliminary report consists of volum inous tables, shoving, under proper classi fication, tne different elements of cost, or approximate cost, of such articles of pro duction, including the wages paid by the day, week, month or year, and by the piece; the hours employed; the profits of the man ufacturers, and the comparative cost and kind of living. The work on this report has been going on since December of 1SSS. The informa tion relating to the cost of production has been taken directly from the books of the manufacturers, from which source the cost of the labor has also been obtained. The cost of living was obtained from the men themselves. HAED TO GET FIGURES. .Manufacturers were not found willing, at first, to throw open their books of account for inspection, but a sufficient number of them in the different countries have been found willing to give the desired informa tion, on the understanding that the facts so obtained should be presented in such wise as would not identify their particular es tablishment. In concurrence with this ex pressed desire, the Department employs numbers in lieu of names when giving the statistics in the various ta, les. Tne same numbers are retained throughout, so that all the facts relating to the production of any one establishment can be ascertained by relering to the particular table. To further prevent the identity of the establishments being discovered, four great divisions, as far as iron and steel are con cerned, have been used. The "United States is divided into two districts, the northern and the Southern. These districts include ten Northern States (in which Maryland is ranked) and four Southern States, and known respectively as the Pennsylvania system and Alabama system districts. Europe is known as the "Continent," and the other division is Great Britain proper. The report is based upon the facts derived from 412 establishments. In this State 35 manufacturers afforded the information de sired of them. The first tables, dealing with the cost of production of pig now in the four districts, are perhaps the most interesting. On this subject 115 estab lishments contributed information. For the purpose of comparison between the cost of Bessemer pig manufactured in this country and abroad, the figures from two establish ments, taken hap-hazard from the list, are appended. No. 22 is in the Northern dis trict, and would seem to be in this locality, uu io. oo is in ureal .Britain. HEBE SXD ABROAD. No. 22, with 1 furnace, 3 heating stoves, 2 blowing engines, and operated by coal, tan 365 days with a total output of 30,392 tons (2.-240 pounds) or 83 tons per day per furnace. No. 36, with 2 furnaces, 3 heating stoves, 2 blowing engines, and operated by furnace gas and coal, ran for 182 days, with 8n output of 31,714 tons (2,240 sounds) or 87 tons per day per furnace.

The total cost of the materials charged into the furnace in No. 22 is $354, 446; in No. 36, 292,741. The proportion of material to one ton of prodnct in No. 22 was: Ore, 1,621 tons; limestone, 308 tons; coke, 806 tons; coal, 132 tons. In No. 36, 1,853 tons; cinder scrap, 37 tons; limestone, 325 tons; coke, 1,191 tons. In the Ameri can factory labor cost $41,445; in the Brit ish, $19,047.

COST OF STEEL BAILS. In the manufacture of steel rails No. 1, American establishment, and No. 10, Brit ish, are taken ont of a total of 11 which af forded information on this subject, for the purposes of comparison. The elements of cost of one ton of standard rails are as fol lows: In the former Material, $21,109; la- Dor, ?i.04u; oniciais ana clerts.not reported; fuel, $1.10; supplies and repairs, SLOO; taxes, 50 cents; total cost, $24.79.

In all of the foregoing calculations no account is taken of interest, insurance, or depreciation of plant. In the tables relating to raining, statistics ot 147 mines are given. Ol these 8 are British, 8 Continental, and 5 Canadian. The Continental miner receives from $ 149 to $.702 per ton, while the British miner is raid from $.324 to $.491. The tables are compiled with great care, by Commissioner Carroll D. "Wright, and afford most valuable information Jor a com parison of the cost of manufacture of articles here and in England and Europe. CONTINUES ITS BUSINESS. Kesolntlons Passed by the .Plumbers' Con vention Besardlnff Conferences. Yesterday's session of the Plumbers and - -Steam Fitters' Association was mostly spent jiniexecntive session iu discussing a new constitution and bylaws. The reports of the officers for the past six months were read and show the organization to be in a pros perous condition. The reports were turned over to the Auditing Committee. Areso lution was offered asking lor the appoint ment of a conference committee to act in conjunction with the master plumbers. There was also appointed a committee whose duty it will be to draft an apprentice law, also a committee to look after and better the condition of the craft throughout the United States. There was also a resolution offered for the appoint ment of a committee to establish a death benefit fund. These resolutions all went to thelCommittee on .Resolutions, whirl, ;n ifetact on them, then they will be formally I brought before the convention and dis cussed. In the evening committee meetings were held in the Central Hotel. Another Signer. Shoenberger & Co. signed the Amalgam ated scale yesterday. INDUSTRIAL NOTES.

Heavy Rainfall Yesterday In tfao Down town Portion oi the CitT. When the music of the pattering rain drops in the street had died away yesterday afternoon, and the bright sun smiled upon the city again, the throbbing pulse of traffic resumed its wonted pulsations in the busy neighborhood of Wood street and Fifth avenue, in tranquil peace. Suddenly a commotion brought the wheels of com merce to a standstill like a shot. Surprised eyes beheld the figure of a man darting away like a startled deer from the Eisner building on Wood street. A floodgate had opened on him, and water rolled down his person like a bib Ming brook. Every optic within a radius of two squares looked up at the window of a third story office in the Eisner building. All that could be seen was a lowered awn ing, from which a few drops of rainwater were still dripping, and a vanishing col ored man armed with a broom with which he had stabbed the awning and let down the cataract, but that was enough to the crowd. For the next five minutes everybody smiled large-sized smiles, while the watered man sought refuge in the nearest clothing store. to have the shower Path pressed out oi ms clothes. "I have prescribed your Mellin's Food for years, and I know of nothing to take its place; I often use it for grown patients also," writes a physician. Cholera Infantum. This disease is always dangerous, but not necessarily fatal. With proper care and treatment not more than 1 case in 100 would prove fatal. Mr. A. W. Walter, the post master at Waltersburg, 111., tells how he cured his baby of a severe attack of the dis ease. He suys: "About two years ago our baby boy was taken with a severe attack of cholera in fantum. As we kept a variety of standard remedies at hand, we at once began giving them, which we had often used with good success, but in spite of everything we could do, the little fellow grew worse. The case was a bad one. He had now got so weak that he lay limp and pale, almost motion less. He seemed almost beyond the aid of human hands, or reach ot medicines; but there was a new medicine, just introduced here, called Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea Bemedy. We concludedto try it, and to our happy surprise, we could see the good effect after the first dose, and before one-fourth of the small bottle had been given, he was up and well. We have also used it for the bloody flux, with the best results. The Bemedy has gained a high reputation here from the start. It is a medicine of superior merits." For sale at 25 cents a bottle by E.

WSu A Four-Year-Old Child Cared of Trouble oa the Bronchial Tubes. To the Dinner Medicine Co., Allegheny City, Fa. Deab Sibs Last winter my little girl, 4 years old, was troubled with a cough that she has had lor two years, which appeared to be one of the bronchial tubes, and caused her to cough so almost incessantly at night that we could get neither rest nor sleep. After trying so many different remedies and consulting physicians, and all to no effect, I had almost given her up, when a friend of mine from your city came along and told me of your medicine and what it would do. I concluded at once to try it and gave my friend $5 with which to send for six bottles, which I received in two days and com menced following directions. In two days we could take her to bed and sleep, being disturbed but very little, and alter using two bottles she was perfectly cured and to day is as well as any child can be. My neighbors, seeing what it had done, took the other four bottles, and I have had calls for it richt along, but have never sent for it yet. You will find enclosed a letter for consideration, and if agreeable I will handle your medicine, as I think no person with children should be without it, and I mean hereafter to keep it in my house for use iu my family. I consider it a great saving of doctor bills and a pbvsician of itself. "Very respectfully, W. J. S0MMEEVILEE.
