CAPITAL TO COMBINE.
Threshing Machine Manufacturers
Said to be Forming a Trust.
,-TWEKTT MILLIONS IN THE POOL.
.Mahoning Tallcj Manufacturers' Want Se
duced Eailroad Rates.
OHIO ElYJIK KAILKOAD BEING BDILT
Hot to be behind tbeir neighbors who
manufacture reapers and mowers, the
makers of threshing machines and engines
are now considering the matter of forming a
combination on their own products.
A meeting was recently held in Chicago,
and although the proceedings were guarded
with secrecy, it has leaked out that the pro
posed consolidation was the subject con
sidered. The consolidated company is re
ported as having a capital of $20,000,000,
and it will include as stockholders about a
lscore of the largest manufacturers in the
United State.
The Minnesota Engine and Thresher Com
jiany, represented by H. C. Fogel, is said to
be at the head of tbe enterprise, and the
other companies in tbe deal are: C. Anlt
man & Co., of Canton, O.; Anltman, Tay
lor & Co., of Mansfield, O.; Eussell & Co.,
Massillon; Orrville Machine "Works, Orr
Ville; Advance Thresher Company, Battle
Creek, Mich.; "Walter A Wood, Eoosic
Palls, X. Y.; Kingsland & Douelas, St
Louis; Garr, Scott & Co., Richmond, Ind.;
Marion & Huber Manufacturing Company,
Marion, O.; C. & G. Cooper, Mt. Vernon,
O.; Eagle Machine Company, Indianapolis;
Springfield Engine and Thresher Company,
Stillwater, Minn.; Nichols, Sbepard & Co.,
Battle Creek, Mich,; Harrison Marhine
"Works, Belleville, 111.; Robinson & Co.,
.Richmond, Ind.; Bobert Thorpe & Co.,
Three Kivers, Mich., and Burnley & Co.,
la Forte, Ind.
TO BE EEADY IX THE SPKIXG,
A call was made on a nnmber of local
dealers in agricultural implements yester
day, but all of them were ither ignorant
of the fact that the consolidation is being
effected, or they did not care to talk about
It. However. John Hall, Jr., of John Hall,
Jr., & Co., 521 Liberty avenue, said he ex
pected the deal to be completed by the time
the spring trade opened up.
"It is not the idea," said he, "to place
the entire industry under the management
6r control of one concern, but to manage
the business in the same manner as the class
industry is managed by the United States
Glass Company, or like any of the other
industries that are in their respective com
binations. "I was expecting this deal last year, and
I am not surprised to see it coming now.
Of course it will not amount to much, but I
suppose if tbe people want a combination
they must have it. The principal object is
to prevent the cutting of prices, but each
rm will continue to run out their own
agents and sell their own machines just the
aame astbey have always done and there
will be just as mueh competition as there
ever was.
HOMT BTJSIXESS Will BE DONE.
"The business will be conducted after the
fashion laid down by the harrow syndicate.
Two years ago a combination was formed
on harrows, and the minimum price was
fixed at $9. Well, we paid 9 for every
harrow we bought, but at the end of every
quarter with some of the firms, at least, we
coma get a rebate of 10 or 15 per cent. It
was only one way of cutting prices, and the
same will be done by the thresher combina
tion, as I believe it is by all other combina
tions. In my opinion combinations do not
amount-to anything" t i '
John Hall, Jr., & Co. are the local repre
sentatives of Bussell & Co. Mr. Hall did
not know who were the leaders in the deal,
but it was learned elsewhere that Mr. Fogel
is assisted by Walter A. Wood, of Hoosic
Falls, N. Y.; Lewis Miller, of Anltman &
Miller; J. F. Sieberling, of Akron, and J.
P. Adriance, of PoughkeeDsie, N. Y.
NO CHANGE TO BE MADE.
The Report That Carnegie Bros. & Co.'i Men
Wanted a Xew Scale is Denied.
Quite a stir was created in industrial cir
cles yesterday by the statement that the
scale now in force at the Edgar Thomson
'Steel Works, at Braddocr, would expire,
and the men were preparing a new one to
present to the firm, providing that the turns
should be eight hours in length instead
of 12.
An official of Carnegie Bros. & Co. was
seen yesterday in regard to the matter, and
he said: "There is no truth in the statement
that the scale at onr works is to be changed.
Onr men are perfectly satisfied with the
present one. They are making at least 25
per cent more than the men at any other
mill make, and if they were not satisfied a
change could not be made January 1. The
agreement calls for a 30 days notice from
either side, and the men have given us no
notice."
SOME EAHE0AD CHANGES.
A Well Established Kale on the Pennsyl
vania Lines Broken.
John McGuire, for many years yardmas
ter of the Pittsburg and Lake Erie Bailroad,
has been appointed general yardmaster at
Conway, on tbe Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and
Chicago Eailway, Vice W. P. Shotwell
promoted. This is a rare occurrence, as it is
a well established rule on the Pennsylvania
lines to promote from the ranks. Mr. Shot
well has been promoted to the position of
assistant train master of the eastern
division, with headquarters in Alleghenv.
Another change has recently been made
on the Pennsylvania line. M. A. Fitcairn,
postmaster at the Union depot, has resigned
and has been succeeded by Eobert Porter
its assistant, who will have full charge of
the company's mail service in the local dis
trict. NEW E0AD TO OHIO.
A Parallel Tor the Ohio Blver Road to Rich
Coal and Fire Clay lands.
The Pittsburg, Ohio Valley and Cincin
nati Bail way is no w being constructed by the
Pennsylvania Company, between Marietta
and Bellaire, O., the latter being the eastern
terminus where the road will connect with
the Cleveland and Pittsburg railroad.
The road will pass along the north bank of
tbe Ohio river, through the counties of Bel
mont, Washington and Monroe.
The territory is rich with coal, fireclay
and building stone, and is well settled. The
road will parallel the Ohio Biver railroad
which occupies the Bouth bank of the river.
WANT L0WEE FBEIGHT T?atkb,
Stationing and Shenango Fnrnaco Men
WiU Kick To-Day.
The Mahoning and Shenango Iron
Manufacturers' Association will meet the
freight agents of Pittsburg to-day at
the Monongahela House to ask for a
reduction of rates into the valleys.
Since pig iron has dropped from $18 00 to
S14 50 per ton the furnace men have not
been making a new dollar for an old one.
.Their coke contracts have been made np to
January J, but after that date they will de
mand a heavv reduction or they will shut
down. Coke for $1 35 to 51 50 would suit
them very well.
TESTING THE NICKEL.
Chairman Abbott Says so Far the Experi
ments Have Been Satisfactory.
Chairman Abbott, of Carnegie, Phipps Ss
Co., went to Washington last evening on
private bnsinecs, as he expressed it. He
Baid they had made some tests with
nickel for making plate armor, but
they couldn't tell much about the experi
ments until they had rolled out a larger
sheet So far the tests have been satisfac
tory. Mr. Abbott added that the Government
would not want the prates for some time to
come.
BUSINESS EXCELLENT.
The Plate Glass Trade no Duller Than TTsnal
at This Season Mr. James Chambers'
Opinion on Natural Gas The Growth of
Jeannette.
A number of statements have appeared in
print of late, to the effect that the plate
glass industry of this section was in rather
bad shape, while the outlook for the trade
was not promising. Mr. James A. Cham
bers, President ot the big plate glass works
at Butler, was seen yesterday, and when
asked what he knew of the situation be re
plied: "So far as we are concerned, business is
excellent, and the future prospects are good.
Every year about this time there is a little
lull in trade, owing to the fact that dealers
arc taking stock, bnt it is only temporary.
We are running full force, and anticipate no
immediate depression."
When asked about the bis Chambers &
McKee glass interests at Jeannette, Mr.
Chambers said: ''Why, businass is on the
boom np there all the time. We have all
we can attend to. The town now numbers
fully 7,000 inhabitants, and outside firms
have never been solicited to locate there, as
the plants already established can make
good use of all the facilities. How about
the natural gas supply? It is holding out
strong. Onr works are located within one
mile of the Grapeville field, and thus far we
have had no trouble whatever."
"What is your opinion of the natural gas
supply, taken as a whole?"
J'Well, I must say that I differ with many
people whose opinions are entitled to great
respect, but I think that within a year it
will be greatly reduced. I mean by this,
that mills and establishments that use
enormous quantities of it will be forced to
adopt some other fuel within the period
mentioned. I do not wish to be understood
as predicting a failure of the gas, fori am
thoroughly convinced that the low nressnre
supply for domestic use and for the smaller
manufacturing concerns will be abundant
fot years and years to come. The old fields
are good yet, and then there are hundreds
and thousands of acres of territory that
have never been developed at all. But I am
satisfied that all of our big establishments
will have to abandon it."
Mr. Chambers has had a broad experi
ence in the introduction of natural gas into'
this city, as well as developing territory.
He was a prime mover in the formation of
the big Chartiers Valley Gas Company, and
is at present the President of the 'same,
which is leased to the Philadelphia Com
pany, and, consequently, his opinions on
the much-discussed subject carry weight
with them.

BOUNCED FROM JAIL
Jeannette Bloods Send Four Prisoners
Oat Into the 'World.
THE JAILER WILLIBGLT ASSISTS
In Letting Down the Bars and Unlocking
the Heavy Cell Doors.
L00E1KG FOE A NEW POLICE OFFICER
The little city of Jeannette is bonnd not
to be behind the times. It has bad a genu
ine jail delivery. There is nothing new in
this fact, for Jeannette has been in the same
fix before, bnt not on so extensive and novel
apian. This time a number of young fej
lows visited the jail and held a high old car-nivaJ-Vitu
the jailer.
At last the latter became so imbued with
a spirit of peace and goodwill, and also
with spirits poured from a bottle, that he
opened the cell doors and allowed the four
prisoners therein to escape. The boys held
a mock court and assisted in bouncing the
prisoners.
This little episode occurred early Sunday
morning. In the city there are a number
of young men who call their rendezvous the
Belvidere Club. The Belvideres are among
the best citizens of the city, and believe in
Justice. Frank McKelvy, Ad Winters,
Joseph Diebold and John Krous visited the
jail on Clay avenue, and had a jolly good
time with the policeman found there.
WEEE IN A MEECIFUL MOOS.
It is said that ere many minutes had
passed, all, including the policeman, were
pretty well "tanked-up" (tanked-up is the
proper expression, Jeannette people say).
In the cells, peering through the square
grated openings in the doors, were four un
fortunates who bad been incarcerated on
difierent charges. They longed for freedom,
and the boys thought it would be a square
shake to give it to them.
The policeman, too, pitied suffering hu
manity and at last let down the bars, opened
the doors and the boys in tragic tones com
manded the prisoners to come forth. A
court was immediately formed and the
prisoners' tried. One said he had been
drunk, whereupon he was told to go, and, as
he did not "git" fast enough, was bounced
out tbe door. Another man was asked what
he had done and answered "nothing."
"Ten days," roared the judge, which
scared the fellow so that he immediately
sneaked out of tbe door.
After the prisoners were gone, the boys
tried the police whistle, examined the cells
and at last adjourned and went horn:.
A VEBY HEAVY POLICE FORCE.
All this happened in a city which claims
to have the heaviest police force in the
United States. This may be doubted, but
it is stated on sntbority that the three men
constituting the department together tip the
scales at 687 pounds.
This new method of disposing of prisoners
has been the talk of Jeannette. The jail on
Clay avenue is a building bnilt for the pur
pose, with cells having wdbden doors. A
shor: time ago a man could not' be found
when he was wanted in tbe morning. Be
fore the fact othisescaDehadbecome known,
one of his friends had put up $10 for his re
lease. When the cell was found empty, the
$10 was demanded and refunded.
The policeman giving the fonr prisoners
their liberty, it is understood, is looking for
a job, and the police department is also
looking for a man weighing over 200
pounds, who will not tamper with justice
and prison bars.
