A Pottivill 'dlspatoh assuming to
Kir to industrial conditions of that
portion of the anthraolto region at this
time, gays; "To Btrsub s Hannum
(old Standard) abirt fsotorj, employing
125 men and women, has not bad an
idla day since lust winter, and is filled
witn ordari from New York aid f oil
udelpbia that will keep tbein going for
months to come. Tbe Xilt bim mill,
(he largest of its kind in tbe United
states, baa been in operation nil sum
mar, and employs upward of 350 oper
atives, in very busy times it win
viTe tmnloyment to as many more.
The TJlmer and tbe Seltzer Packing
companies are working fnll-banded
Tbe former employs over 200, and tbe
latter over 1UU men. Tbere are also two
large clothing manufactories bere, and
these have been busy all summer on
winter olotbing and overcoats, ; together
employing over 800 mea and women.
Tbe repair shops of tbe Heading Con I
and Iron company, employing 800
men, are never idle, as they have to
repair and make msobinery, locoino
tives, oars and other material for tbe
company's fifty-two oollieries. Ther
has been no rednetion in wages at these
ebons for' years, and wages are paid
every two weeks in easb. Tbe ap
pointment of receivers and tbe assign
ment or tbe t ottevuie iron aod fcteel
company baa oreated no fear of bad
times among tbe people bere. The
mills are working as usual, and ths re
ceivers announced that they would be
kept running. The company has many
Urge contracts on hand, and oan giva
employment for months to come. to its
700 employes. The completion of the
two large coal breakers, one for tbe
Chamberlain Coal aompany, near St
Clair,, and another at tbe Williams
Coal company's colliery, will insure
work for 1,200 more men and boys
within the next row months.
Eaoh dav over 60.000 nassencrers rmss
through the train gates of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, company'! station at
ISroad and Market streets, Philadel
phia. Tkis la considered the largest
number of people to pass through the
gates of one railroad company in one
day of any city, in tbe United States.
Chicago, with its twenty-eight inde
pendent lines of railway, ran to and
lrom its eight railway stations 28,508
trains during the month of April, laa-i.
Philadelphia ran during .tne (Mine
period 40,890 trains. Chicago carried
daring tbe month of April, 1891, an
aggregate of . 1.730,000 passengers.
Philadelphia in the same period car
ried an aggregate of 3,y5l),UU0 passen
gers. Cbieago on its twenty-sight
lines of railway in the month of April,
1804, handled 183,579 pieces of baggage,
liroad street station alone handled
mora than that in tbe same period, and'
the total number of pieces of burgage
bandied in Philadelphia during. April,
1894, was approximately 800.000. Chi
cago rnns an average of 950 trains a
day in and out of its eight railway
terminals. Philadelphia rnns an aver
age of 1,103. Cbieago handles an aver
age of 00,000 railway passengers daily;
Philadelphia handles an average of
113,000 passengers. Chicago bandies
an average of 0.500 pieces of baggage
daily; Philadelphia bandies an aver
age of 13,000 daily. .
.
Tbe spectacle a few nights ago of a
train leaving Philadelphia in four sec
tions, with twenty-five crowded Pull
man sleepers, is, thinks tbe Press, cer
tainly one that would indicate that
railway traffio at least is not in a stag
nant condition within the limits of
Philadelphia,' The train left New
York in three sections, and when it
loft Broad street station another sec
tion bad been added. As made np the
train consisted of thirty seven cars,
seven passenger coaohes, two Pennsyl
vania railroad baggage cars, two cars
of the .Adams Express company and
one Unitod States railway mail car.
This was probably the largest train
that was ever made, up for departure
from a railroad station at one time.
'
In the effort now making to find a
plan of re organization for the Read
ing Railroad companyso far acceptable
to tbe owners of its property and se
curities as to give assurance of success,
popular confidence, says the Philadel
phia Reoord, has been largely increased
by the suggestion that ex-Postmaster
General Wanamaker might be pre
vailed upon to accept tbe presidency,
Mr.' Wanamaker has peonliar Qualifica
tions for the task. No man wuo is not
a great all-around man oan become a
great merchant. A great merchant
need not take back seat among law
years, great statesmen, great writers,
warriors or orators. He is thsir equal
in talent. In the sum total of quall-
cation which given to men a right to
tainoy ne stauas in tne iront rank.
Wanamaker is not "a railroad
' But be has that grasp of buei
affalr. that knowledge of the
trend and movement of trade, that fa
cility for clear insight and quick dis
patch in large and intrioate affairs, and
that 'decision, nerve and promptness
whioh are more essential than - any
teohnioal acquirement. It would be a
matter of rejoicing to sse bim take up
tbe tangled tnread of Reading business
and do What be could toward unravel
ing it Mr. Wanamaker may be the
man for the ocoasion. It would be
bard to find anyone better qualified for
suob an undertaking.

The Iron Trade Rsvlew lays: The
feeling among autborlties in tbe iron
trade is that no higher basis of values
istobessenia tbe immediate future.
No matter what the exaot relation be
tween foreign selling , priees, with the
new tariff added, and those at home,
the impression is widespread that con
sumers will get lower prioes now and
there is no willingness to pay an ad
vance. It a permanently high basis
should be established here ant ther.
the belief is that it will not oome until
all tbe possibilities of the new tariff in
reference to tbe products in question
have been fully demonstrated. West
ern foundries are coming up faster from
the extreme depression of the past half
year than those in the east, but in all
parte of the country tbe reports from
this industry are more encouraging.
Eastern iron mills are all busy on
, small orders. In structural steel there
is Rood prospect Other .business in
the same line will develop early in the
falL , Wrought iron pipe works have
taken some good orders, but prioes are
not well maintained. Sheet mills are
not ao well employed outside of orders
for alvaozsd. v If he new 'tariff makes
another conference necessary between
mill owners and the Amalgamated as
sociation, and Wage reductions la pro
portion to tbe tariff cuts will be In
aisted upon by manufacturers of black
plates and tin plates. - .
a D. King, purchasing agent and
superintendent of tbe .stoek of tbe
Pennsylvania Coal company at Plttston
for aeveral years, has recently been

promoted to be superintendent of mo
tive power of the Erie and Wyomine
Valley railroad. Ha will assume his
new position today. It will also require
Mr. h.lng to change his resideuce rrom

will be at Dunmbre. His successor at
Pittston has not been named.' ,

W. F. Stalsy. of Pittston, inspector
of watcbes lor tbe Wyoming division
of tbs Lehigh Valley railroad, has re
ceived notice that all watdbes of the

A typical announcement is made in a
Rochester contemporary wnen it says
"Tbe directors of tbe Rochester and
Glen Haven railroad have last deter
mined that next season they will run
their trains by electricity and abandon
tbe locomotive. No change will be
made until the close of this season. As
the track is of tbe same gauge as that
of the ordinary street ears it will be an
easy matter when the trolley wires are

Tbe new dosk of the Lriilgh Valley
Tranportation oompany at West Su
perior, Wis., is creating considerable
stir among tbe coal men. Considerable
of tbe iron and steel to be used in the
construction of the dock has bsen
brought up by steamer from Buffalo
and next week 150 skillod men from
Minneapolis and St. Paul will be put
to work erectiue the aupsrstrusture of
tbe new dock. The Dodge Coal Stor
age company have the contraot for tbe
plant and are pushing work. Tbe
docK will store loO.OOO tons of soft and
a like amount of hard coal. The build
ings will be two in number and will
have a diameter of 230 feet and will be
100 feet high. They will be the largest
of the kind ever erectod. The ooal
will all be received by vessel from
lower lake ports and be delivered by
msuns of automatio buckets having a
capacity of about two tons eaoh. The
coal is then formed into conical piles in
the Urge building in such a way as to
prevent any serious breakage. ' The
plan of reloading the coal iuto oars, if
successful, will rsvolutioniz) the coal
trade. A tunnel is located under each
of tbe strocturss into which tbe ooal
will flow, being conveyed through the
tunnel up a suitable inollne by convey
ors. At the delivery point of the con
veyor just before passing iuto the
can the coal is run through rotary
screens insuring the delivery of clean
coal. The screenings are elsvated and
removed to storage buildings esDesially
designed for their recoption. The gen
eral shape of the roof of the large stor
age buildings is parabolic. A verv
complete arrangement of tracks and
scales and buildings will be provided,
and the aoou will be one of the best
equipped at the bead of the lake.

Connellsville coke showed a decided gain
week before last over the production of
the previous week; there was an increase
of nearly 14,000 tons. The report of the
operation and output ot tne region lor the
week ended on Saturday, Aug. 25, shows
12, T03 active and 4,611 idle ovens, with a
total estimated production ot 121,'Jti! tons.
The shipments (or the week aggregated
6,321 cars. Campared with the shipments
ot the previous week this was a not in
crease of 303 cars.

The custom of pinnlnj? papers on the
clothing of unsuspecting persons forms a
venerable April fool Joke. In fact, it is so
time worn and shows so little inventive
ness that one is occasionally surprised at
finding It still considered funny. Some
times, however, even ao ancient a pleas
antry takes un unexpected turn,
a iiuie uoy was cicttiy pmuinc a bit of
paper to an old gentleman's coat when t.hn
latter suddenly turned, saw him, and laid
a detaining hand on bis shoulder.
"What's that you're doincr" he asked
gruffly. "What are you puttiug that piece
of paper on my coat for?"
"or-for an April fool, air." stammered
the boy, too much confused to evade the
question.
Ine gentleman suddenly marched him
along to a mirror In a shop window.
"Ihore," said he, "look at your own
back." i
On the boy's jacket was pinned a paper
of startling size, which certainly must have
rustled audibly as he walked.
"Who did I understand you to any was
the April foolf" inquired the gentleman
politely, and the boy opened his lips for one
word, more humble thou grammatical,

MAN EAT.INQ GIANTS OF SERI.
Stories of a Horrible People on an Island
in the Gulf of California.
"There are 174 giant cannibals, men and
women, living on Seri ialaud, in the Gulf
ot California, and not sixty miles from the
mainland of Mexico," said George G. Mc
Kauiaro, at tbe Palace hotel.
"What I say might seem ridiculous, but
it ia nevertheless a fact, for I have seen
some vi tnem during my travels in Mexico.
Who their ancestors were or how long
sney nave occupied the Island is not known,
but they are now becoming extinct.
"I saw throe women and one man, and
their appearance ami manner gave mo the
impression that they are brutes by nature
and brutes in heart and soul. It was just
by chance that I saw them, as few of them
venture away from the island exceDt to
sell the mats and shawls which they make
from tbe skins and feathers of tbe alba
tross. They are cunning thieves, but other
wise their minds are dull in fact they
seem stupefied. They have a vacant stare
in their eyes, and when not serious an
idiotic smile spreads over their faces.
"The island of Seri is about twenty miles
long and at places ten miles wide, and I
was told no Mexican or white man ever
ventures near or attempts to land on it,
as they claim the island is their domain
and shoot the intruders with poisoned ar
rows or capture and eat them. They exist
on fish and goat meat, which are plentiful.
Low houses, built of shrubbery, are their
abode. Some live in "dugouts," or caves
cot into banks. They roam about the
island and lead the laziest life of any peo
ple tnat 1 nave ever beam of. Ao one can
really tell what their daily routine of liv
ing is, but it is a fact that the tribe is dy
ing out, and it will not be many years be
fore they will become extinct.
"Their mode of burial is not known, but
it was estimated that whero there are now
a handful there were several thousand not
ten years ago, and if they bury tho dead,
and do not burn the bodies, us cannibals
do, the bones of their enormous frames
will cover a largo area of the island.
"The man I photographed is over seven
feet in height. His face was a study when
bo saw tho lens pointed at him, and be
could not understand what was being
done. He, as are all his race, was super
stitious, but wc ovcrcamo that obstacle by
giving him a present of an old pair ot
trousers, which he immediately tied around
bis neck. The gentleman standing next
to him is about six foot tall, and he had to
hold the Indian's hand.
"An old rag encircled the upper portion
of the Indian's limbs, and it was tied
around the wuist. The blanket Is made of
albatross skin and feathers. The bows and
arrows which he holds ore the only weapon
they know of or use. His legs from the
knee down are not covered. The hat he
wears is of straw, and he, as be stands
there, is tbe typical Seri Indian.
"The women wear patched dresses made
of cloth which tliey receive for albatross
mats and shawls. They nre wrinkled and
old, very few girls being among tbe tribe.
The bowls on their heads contain broken
vessels made of clay.
"They nre a wonderful people," contin
ued Mr. McNninura," and no doubt their
past history, if revealed, will bring to light
facts that relate to the magnificent reign
of the Montev.umns, or even far beyond
the time of Cortez." San Francisco Ex

He Was Not Mean.
We had an hour to wait at a railroad
junction in Louisiana, and four or fire of
us sat down in the shude on theedge of the
platform und hung our legs over.
While we were talking a man witharope
in bis hand, evidently looking for a stray
mule, came out of the bushes opposite us,
and stood looking up and down the track.
By and by be directed his (raze toward
our feet, but we didn't mind him until he
drawled out:
"You all, there!"
"Well?" queried one.
"H'lst up your feet!"
We "h'isted" without wuitinir to ask
why, and then looked down to see a big
rattlesnake just coiling himself for a
strike.
A handy grindstone was dropped on the
snake, and when some one thanked the na
tive ho culled back:

A Comfortable Summer Button.
"The people down around,-Cap Cod ore
queer characters," remarked: the woman of
fashion. "I wont down to South Yar
mouth one day to buy some thread which
I happened to need very badly. There was
only one clerk in the little shop, and he
was busy with a customer. , So I had to
wait and, of course, I couldn't help over
hearing the conversation. The customer
was an old woman and she was inspecting
some buttons preparatory to a purchase.
She found it hard to decide, and at lust
asked me to give my opinion upon three
or four different kinds. I told ber I
thought a certain cloth button was the
prettiest."
" 'Waal, she replied, 'it be pretty, but
for raal comfort in the summer time givo
