    THE .SCR ANTON TRIBUNE THURSDAY MOItNTNQ. OCTOBER IS, 1891.
Industrial and
MINE, MILL AM) KAILKOAD.
The Mayfteld breaker of the Hillside
Cual and Iron company Is said to be
one of the most complete mining
plants and largest In the world, and
Is owned by the Erie Hallway com
pany. Recently electric plants have
been placed In the mines for liKhllna
them and for power to move the cata
und elevate the coal, duintr away en
tirely with mule power. The miners
are greatly pleased with the now. or
der of things, as It enables them to ac
complish more and with greater ease
than when wrkiiig with miners' lamps,
while it greatly lessens the danger of
explosion. It is stated that a man can
now load seven of the cars used in a
mine with the new facilities that elec
tricity affords as quickly as ho could
three with mule power and miners'
lamp.
It is not unlikely that permission will
be asked by the trolley companies of
the next Pennsylvania legislature to
carry only the lighter class of general
merchandise freight. If this bill passes,
und Is allowed to apply to local trallic In
large cities, it will, as the Stockholder
shrewdly points out, mean a revolu
tion In the manner of handling such
traffic, and the blow will be heaviest
upon local express and transfer coin
jianles. It would, of course, necessi
tate the construction of special cars,
but the returns would undoubtedly Jus
tify the expenditure. Indeed, the haul
ing of trunks and other luggage in a
large city, would prove a source of big
Income. It is not known how soon the
movement to secure these privileges,
will be centralized, but that the effort
to secure them will be concentrated in
a single body or organization is now
generally admitted.
Two new railroads Into West Virginia
pro now projected. Several Went Vir
ginia and Pittsburg capitalists are in
terested One line will connect with the
Baltimore and Ohio at or near Point
Marlon, running up the Valley of Cheat
river twenty-live miles to Kingwood,
where It will met the Tunnelton, King
wood and Pairchance narrow gauge
railroad, which runs south to the mnln
line of the Baltimore and Ohio. The
other line will tap the Baltimore and
Ohio somewhere between Point Marlon
und Fairmount, probably nt Morgan
town. It will be over forty miles long.
The country to be tapped by both of these
lilies Is rich in iron ore, timber, lime
stone, glasshouse sand and the best
coal und lire day.
Much has been said of late about the
Jiadness of the past nine months In a
railway sense; but the concentrated
llgures of the Hallway Age put even
this patent fact in a new and decidedly
more vivid light. The total number of
roads for the period from Jan. 1 to Oct.
1, 18SI4, to go under receiverships is 3-.
These represent 6.254 miles of track, a
funded debt of $1S5.U7S,500 and a capital
Htock of $170,578,000 or a total Indebted
ness In all of $301,6.16,500. The work of
reorganizing bankrupt roads by means
of foreclosure and purchase for new or
ganizations has gone on very rapidlj
tills year. During the last three months
15 roads, with 3,187 miles of line, ana
over $180,000,000 of bonds and stock
have passed through this process, nine
of them going toward making up the
new Southern Railroad company,
which Is founded on the ruins of the
Itichmond and Danville and East Ten
nessee. Virginia and Georgia systems.
Added to previous figures for six
months they give a total of 31 roads,
aggregating 4.503 miles and represent
ing nearly $257,000,000 of securities
which have appeared under new names
and ownership during the nine months
just past. The foreclosure record ot
the entire year 1S93 is already largely
exceeded in number of roads, mileage
and capitalization by that for the nine
months of 1894. nnd the total for the
12 months Is likely to surpass thnt ot
all but two or three years in the last
twenty.
The outlook for the anthracite coal
trade Is more encouraging and the
trade has begun to show signs of im
provement during the past week, hav
Ing been more active than for some
time past. The cooler weather has
given a fresh impetus to the business
and stimulated the consumption of coal
for domestic uses, while the demand for
manufacturing and steam heating pur
poses has also increased. The curtail
ment of production continues and is nl
ready beginning to have an Influence on
prices, which rule much tlrmer, and an
advance In circular prices is not now
Improbable.
The new Ebensburg and Black Lick
railroad, which has Oust been coin
Pleted, was inspected by President
Roberts and other officials of the Penn
Bvlvania railroad, and it is expected
will be open for traffic in a few days.
It opens upon one of the richest bitu
minous coal fields in the state.

The Pennsylvania railroad freight

ear ago, and he does not look lor much
ailing olT in freight earnings from last
year.
In dressing down an axle at the
Pennsylvania shops at Fort "Wayne,

good deal of new equipment. The South
ern railway, last week, let a contract
for 500 freight cars: the Atlantic and
Ireat Northern for 300 box cars, and
other lines are in the market for cars.
Chairman Blnnchard. of the Central
Traffic association, hns called a meet
ing of the general managers of the
roads in the association at Cleveland,
Oct. 23, to consider vital questions af
fecting earnings of roads in their
charge.
The City Railway company of Ber
lin lias adopted the nlckel-in-the-slot

cars so equipped was 299,011. There

ented.
The coal tonnage report of the Read
ing railroad for the week ended Oct. 13,
shows that the company is doing its
share toward preventing the general
market from being over-stocked. The
total shipments were 290,439 tons,
against 300,585 tons the same week last
year, an increase of 16.1 16 tons. For the

STOCKS AND BONDS.
By the United Tress.
New York, Oct. 17. Early develop
ments in the financial world rather fa
vored those operating for higher
prices for stocks. The most Important
feature came in the shape of a re
duction In sterling exchange of 1 cent,
which leaves gold exports out of the
question. At once the small bears be
gan to cover and with the assistance of
some excellent buying of American
Sugar, prices moved up ?4 to per cent.
The rise In Sugar was attributed to In
side buying. The market held well tin
til it was announced that the Baltimore
and Ohio had reduced its semi-annunl
dividend per cent, to 2 per cent. This
with a recovery in Bterling exchange
led to realizations and pivces receded
to lVt. The general list closed about
steady. Total sales were 195,025 shares,
of which 29,720 were bugar.
The range of today's prices or the ac
tive stocks of the New York market are
given below. The quotations are furnished

age to wheat by weevil and heading.
Samples of the supposed damaged wheat
were submitted to the grain committee
for Inspection, and the grain was pro

CIGARETTE DID IT.
Two Hoys Horribly .Mutilated by the Ex
plosion of Powder Caps.
By the United Tress.
Mokulume Hill, Cal., Oct. 17. Ceorge
and James Tipp, aged 9 and 17, respect
lvely, were horribly mutilated and
probably fatally Injured by the explo
sion or a box or giant powder caps.
The left hand of James was torn to
shreds, necessitating amputation. His
eyesight was destroyed and his head,
race und upper part of his body was
filled with fragments of metal from
capshells and the metal box in which
tUey were contained, George was as
badly mutilated.
James hand was found near the
place, still holding a half-burned cig
arette. It is supposed the boys found
the box near the roadside, and in ex
amining the contents a spark from the
cigarette caused the explosion.
