G THE SCI? ANTON TRIBUNE-FRIDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 21, 1894. GENERAL NEWS OF la the opinion of the Philadelphia Stockholder "no coal combination oan b formed, and be successful, unit it looludea the Reading, the Lehigh Val ley and other prominent iiteiests. It could not bo successful evon if every anthracite coal producing company in PennsyWaaia should combine gainst the Reading. The latter is a too pow erful factor in the trade to be ignored. It can, without assistance, flood the market to the extent that prices would be a eeeondary consideration. Of course, (it tonld not live i through inch a war, bat neither could other companies, It would drive them all to the wall, and it is safe to presume that the interests which control these properties are not likely to have such disaser occor at this or any other time." If the Pennsylvania Railroad company would listen to reason and do ita ahara toward observing restrictive requirements, there would bo little or no question of the nttitude of the other carrying companies. It our Philadel phia contemporary be sincere in its solicitude for the welfare of the an thracite interests it will not overlook the stubborn and hurtful policy of President Roberts. ... t The Jersey Central is fast ascending into the ranks of the leading currying corporations of the state. On Tuesday, says the Hazloton Standard, they placed an order with the American Manufacturing company for 3,000 thirty-ton gondolas, equipped with tlio Janny couplor. This aBt number will be equal to 10,500 small "jim mies," and will have a total capaoity of 105.000 tons of coal, The new gon dolas will be of greater width and lenjcth than the twenty-live tonnors now generally used. With the intro duction of the new and improved gon dolas the days of the coal hoppers are at an end. As fast as tbey are taken to the shop, if it is thought that the expense to repair them will be very great, they are burned up for the iron tbey contain. The companies in gen eral are anxious to abandon their use, because tbey are not fitted to be cnnpled and braeed in between gon dolas. They are so light that the dan ger of them jumping the track is a constant dread to train men, aud it will only be a few years until they are entirely destroyed. . C. C Waite, president and general manager of the Columbus and Hocking Valley road, says business on the Co lumbus ana Hocking Valley road has been very satisfactory the last few weeks, the coal movement over the line, which is one of the chief features of cosiness, having been very heavy. What business would be in the next few months Mr. Waite tbinks depends largely on what tnrn business gener ally may take. Stocks of coal are light all over the country, and should the manufacturers become busy it will mean a heavy coal traffic through tbo fall and winter.: This, of course, re fers to bituminous coal. i A mathematician of the New York Press has been doing some interesting figuring, with this result: Editor Saward, of the Coal Trade Review, Bys that New York burns about 6, 000,000 tons of anthracite and bitu minous coal every year, and bis au thority is unquestioned by the trade. He says fnrther that every ton of coal contains, on an average, about one cubic yard or twenty-seven cubio feet. At that estimate a pile of coal big enough to feed the thousands of fires burned in the metropolis for one year would contain 102,000.000 of cubic feet. Possibly these figures fail to carry any moaning, but some notion of their magnitude will be (rained when It is understood that 163,000,000 of cable feet would fill a bin 80 feet wide, 40 feet deep and 50,625 feet long. and that if the bin were Bet down in Broadway it wonld roach northward from the City halt the whole length of tho street and along the Boule vard away up to One hundred and Sixty-seventh street In some parts of the street there would be room for car riages, trucks and foot passengers by the side of the bin, but in other parts - tne thoroughfare would be tilled from building to building. This enormons coal bin, emptied out and piled up on Washington Squaro, would make a pile Desute wbloh the hiliei tower even would hide its diminutive head, and the great Washington monument would look like a moderate sizad Dost. This square is 900 by 450 feet, as stated above, and 6,000,000 tons of coal piled upon its area would tower up rather more than 1,200 feet into the air, so high that the YAK A tower, which is a shade under 1,000 feet, would need to be raised nearly the boigbt of Trinity church steeple (2'j9 feet) in order to reach the top of the pile. .

The Readintr Fire Brick works resumed operations Wednesday after having been tuie lor several months. Large orders are coming in, and trade prospects are bright ening. The old Lehiah Valley story that Gov ernor Pattison will suoceod President Wilbur is revived, with the addition that Mr. McLeod will become general man ager. Part of the recant buvlna of New Eng- laud is said to have been based on the fuct that the company had given orders to in crease its rolling stoctc, taken to indicate tnat busines is improving. The New Castle tin plate companies have posted notices notifying their men of a re daction of from SO to 25 per cent, in wages. The managers say they cannot pay the old wages under the new tariff law. Samnel Tinner, who for a few years has been assistant mine foreman at No. 2 Hlockton for Linderman. Skeer & Co., is now employed as mine foreman for Van wickle & Jo., at ttearwater, bcnuyiiiiu county. Andrews & Ilitchcock, iron manufactur ers of Sharon, Pa.,have begun tho erection of an immense blast furnace at Hubbard, O. The furnace when completed, will be the largest in the Mahoning aud Shenango valloys. The lartrer rjortion of the Duddline de partment of the South Tenth street mill of the Oliver Iron and Btoel company, at Pittsburg, is idle through the discharge of a larue number of rmddlers and helpers. The only lnttu at work in the puddling de partment are those who took the places oi the paddlers who struck a short time ago. Tbe Pennsylvania Railroad company has i6sned on the Camden und Amboy division for all deportments to resume work on eight hours's time six days a week. For tne paHt thirteen moutus the shipyards, machine and car repairing straps have only woruett oicnt nonrs a day nve uays eacu weeir, while the trainmen hod only worked half time. A bite chance is nbont to be made at the Central car shops at Pbillipsburg. During the past year and more men nnd machin ery have been removed from the works to Hampton, . J. The shops formerly employed 125 mechanics, while now only abont sixty are employed. It bos been de cided to move the eutire plant at Hampton to Pbillipsburg, leaving only enough men aud machinery at that place for nec essary repair work. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Stocks and Bonds.

"Oh, papa, see tho pretty humming bird!" Tho object at which the child pointed was poised above a big white flower on rapidly agitating wings, robbing the blos som of nectnr with Its long bonk. 'That is not a liummiritt bird, pet," fcnid the gentleman who sat on the porch in the gathering dusk of evening. "It is a horn blower moth. Once upon it time it was a big green caterpillar." "A caterpillar, pupa?'' "Yes, dearie. The insect which looks so like a humming bird, as you say, is an en emy of my own, because it destroys to bacco, l'erhaps 1 woulil not liavo una to pay so much for this cigar I am smoking if there were no such moths in existence." "Hut the moth does not eat tobacco, papa." o, my ilear, but It lays eggs tnat hatch out into caterpillars, nnd the cater pillars feed on the tobacco leaves. There ure plenty of them over ill Maryland and Virginia, and the planters have to fight them constantly. Tho moth deposits its eggs on the leaves and the now born worms eat holes throngh them, which render them useless for making cigurs. 'U'hcn they are full grown they. arc nlxiut threo inches long. They aro bright green with small red bends und aro very fat mid un pleasant." 'What becomes ot them alter tuey get big?" 'Oh, t bey keep on entmg as long as tncy arc growing, gobbling tip whole leaves and plants, and after sliedduig their skins a few times they burrow into the ground and stay there quite torpid for awhile. Then tbey come out of the earth in the shape of great moths, Rttth nstjje one you fuw a moment ago. After that they do notenroto feed upon tobacco leaves any more, but they live on the juices ot flowers, particularly on those of the hnnoysncklo nnd a plant called tlio 'Jamestown weed.' They extract tlie honey tiom tho blossoms by means of a flexible tongue five or six inches in length. When they are not feed ing the tongue is coiled up like a watch spring under the head. Pretty Foon they lay their eggs on tbo tobacco leaves uuu then die." "lint what do they do to kill them?" "A favorite way of the planters over in Maryland is to pLmt the Jamestown weeds in tho tobacco fields and put in each flower a little block arsenic orrthpr poison. Then tho moths come along, feed on tbo poisoned honey of tbe blossoms and die. Men go through tbe fields also and kill tbe cater pillars by piuchiug off their heads. If such measures were not taken the insects would destroy the tobacco crops." Washington Star. "Mnklng Up" with a Prince. The following story would seem incred ible if my father hod not heard it from an eyewitness. When Colonel Iennox, after ward Duko of Richmond, culled out and nearly shot tbo Duke of York, the indig nation of the royal family and their friends wuscxtreme. After a time, however, the prince regent forgave tho audacious duel ist und ijuite unexpectedly asked him to dinner. A largo party was awaiting the arrival of their royal host when, to their amazement, Colonel Lennox wus an nounced. Being received with silence nnd cold looks he resolved to mark bis sens! of the courtiers' disapproval. So be laid down two chairs-side by side on t he floor and leaped over them. Being a man of singu lar uctivity, he repeated this little comedy after laying a third chair over the first and again after laying a fourth on the second and ngain after laying a fifth on the summit. At this. last jump, however, his foot caught the. topmost chair and tbe pile wus scattered over the floor. At this moment tbo prince entered the room, nnd in astonishment asked the un seasonable athlete what on earth he was about. "Keully, sir," replied tbe una bashed visitor, "it is most unfortunate. Xoone spoke a word, and I had to nniuso myself; but I sincerely hope that none of your royal highness' (bail's is broken." Tlio prince laughed, mid tbo matter blew over. "No one but a thorough gentleman," said my father, who used to pronounce this word with a peculiar emphasis, and to employ it in a somewhat narrowly exclu sive sense, "could have carried the affair off as Colonel Iiiuox did." L. Tolle macho in Fortnightly Review. The Snub Mused Little Mun. Tho poor little woman was traveling from Baltimore to Chicago with six small children. Three of them were ill nnd she bad her hands and lap more than full. Every one in the car tried throughout the day todo what they could to alleviate her sufferings. A kindly old gentleman played with t no not too inviting two-year-old, and a jolly commercial traveler kept the wig gling and inquisitive oldest Uy as quiet as possible wit h stories of his own boys at home. Dainty Indies opened well stocked traveling ligs to the many necessities of the little brood, nnd the traveling public seemed disposed to show its utmost kind liness to the overburdened woman. The only person who showed no Interest was an insignificant, snub nosed little man who sat in tlw back of t he car and read newspapers. At hist bedtime came, and tlie porter made up a couple of sections in whk'h the tired mother might bestow her offspring. When they were safely settled, the passengers were rendered almost speechless by the conduct of the lit tle snub nosed inau, who skulked down the aisle aud crawled into the berth where the wo man was hushing a wailing child. When it dawned upon them that he was the husband and father of their proteges, it took all the persuasion of the cooler beaded to prevent an immediate mobbing Kate Field's Washington.

On a recent trip to Europe I noticed that tbe Frenchmen never cuts his bread, and tbe man who applies his knife to a louf in a French restaurant or hotel is at. once set iwu as ill brivl. "The Frenchman always breaks his bread and pulls it to pieces instead of slicing it m we do.

' Pharmacist, cor. Wyoming Ave nut and mmth To Our Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many patrons ' that they will this year hold to their usual custom of milling STRICTLY OLD WHEAT until tha new crop is fully cured. New wheat is now upon tho market, and owing to tha excessively dry weathers many millers are of the opinion that it is already ' cured,, and in proper condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will take NO RISKS, and will allow the new wheat fully three months to mature before grinding. This careful attention to every detail of milling has placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above all other brands. IFJJi Wholesale Agents. VJ7 1 LOUIS B.
