CONCERNING BOND ISSUE.
Deposit of Gold Is Hefused-The Outlook
for a Popular Loan Is More Favorable.
New York, Jan. 15. The fact that the
receipts for gold deposited In the sub-
treasury to be examined and counted
were offered for sale In Wall street ltl
the sub-treasury today to refuse to ac
cept a deposit of $180,000 by Zimmer
man & Forshay. The firm thereupon
telegraphed to the secretary of the
treasury: "We have tendered $180,000
in American gold coin to the sub-treas
ury here. It refuses to accept It. We
want to leave some there for bonds.
Must It accept it or not? Please
answer.
This reply came late In the day.
"The assistant treasurer has no au
thority to receive the gold mentioned
in your telegram. No subscriber for
bonds should deposit until notified of
the acceptance of his bid. See circular
or the 9th Inst."
Washington, Jan. 15. The action of
J. P. Morgan In dissolving the bond
syndicate aroused little attention in
the senate when the fact became known
through the medium of the United
Press bulletin. This action had been
discounted and members of the finance
committee declined to discuss the ques
tinnWhlle not talking for publication
two or three of the leading members
stated their belief that the dissolution
of the syndicate meant that the mem
bers forming It intended to bid sepa
rately for the bonds and on the whole
the outlook for the popular loan was,
perhaps, brighter than It was when the
yndicate was In existence.
NO STOP IN RELIEF WORK.
The National Committee Will Go on,
Whatover the Red Cross May Do.
New York, Jan. 15. The National Ar
menian relief committee will not relax
Its efforts to succor starving Armen
ians. This official statement has been
Issued from the headquarters of the re
lief committee:
"The reported Intention' of the Turk
ish government to refuse the American
Red Cross society permission to enter
Turkey will not cause the National Ar
menian .relief committee and its
branches throughout the country to ie
lax their efforts for an Instant in rais
ing funds to save the 360,000 Armeni
ans who rae perishing from starvation
and exposure.
"The National committee is the au
thorized agent throughout the country
for raising funds and supplies to be dis
tributed by the Red Cross, provided It
enters the field, but in case the Red
Cross is excluded, the national commit
tee has authority to exercise existing
agencies on the ground or organize new
ones, so that all contributors may -e
assured that their gifts will as speedily
as possible reach the sufferers for whom
they are Intended.
"Many are not aware of the fact that
relief work to the extent of $100,000 has
already been Successfully carried out'
In Turkey the past three months under
the direction of a strong and represen
tative committee of foreign residents
and diplomats in Constantinople
through European consuls, and the
Americans who are found In all the
principal cities of the Interior.
"A letter received from Constanti
nople dated Deo. 27, atates that sixty
bales of clothing had been forwared
that week to Caeaarea, and that. It la
now possible to forward large amounts
of money safely to those engaged In
this work In the devastated regions.
The Red Cross could greatly enlarge
this work.
"It seems Incredible that while the
Turkish government is permitting such
relief work, it should exclude the Red
Cross w,hloh, as Is well known, will pot
step over a suffering Turk or Kurd, to
help An Armenian.
"Meanwhile all funds should continue
to be sent to Brown Bros. ft Co., 59
Wall street, treasurers of the National
Armenian Relief committee.
"Spettoer Trass, chairman of the ex
ecutive committee."

cards announcing their candidacy and
expressing their presidential prefer
ences. Zook says he will "vote for eith
er Harrison. Reed.McKinley or Allison."
Hershey announces that he 'SvllI vote
for Harrison for president- as long as
his name Is before the contention.".
McKlnley Is the sheriff's second choice.
Harrison Is Heir's first choice and Mc
Klnley the second. t
In Our Own Section.
William Connell and John T. Wil
liams have been chosen to represent
the Eleventh district. Mr. Connell
rendered valuable , assistance to the
combine In the fight for the state chair
man, but he has said that that fight
so far as he Is concerned, ended at the
last convention. He is now one of
Senator Quay's closest friends. Mr.
Williams Is also a friend of the senator.
In Luzerne Congressman John Leisen-
ring is unopposed, and his running
mate will be either Theo. Hart, of Pitts
ton, or a man from Wtlkes-Barre.
There will be lively contests In the
Schuylkill district for the two delegates
to which that county Is entitled. Ma
jor Sam Losch and "Jack" Whltehouse
have been suggested to make the fight
for the combine. Ex-Representative D.
IX Phillips and Major John F. Finney
are the choice of many of the Quay
people. There are scarcely two leading
politicians in the county in accord and
the election of delegates will depend
largely upon the Individual strength of
the- candidates and the combination
they can make.
The delegates from the Fifteenth dis
trict will probably come from Susque
hanna and Wayne counties as the party
leaders in Bradford and Wyoming con
cede them that honor. ' Fred Wright
will likely be the choice of Susquehanna
county and Senator Hardenbergh, a
member of the - Philadelphia "Lexow"
committee, the representative from
Wayne. The aspirants In Bradford are
Representative Floyd L. Kinner and
Charles L Tracey. Fred I. Wheelock,
of Wyoming, who was a delegate from
the district in 18U2. wants to go again.
A Fti:ht In the Sixteenth.
There will be a bitter factional con
test in the Sixteenth district between
the combine and Quay forces. Attor
ney tneral McCormlck Is supporting
Ellas Deemer. of Wlliamsport, who is
being opposed by Honry O. Parsons, a
prominent member of the Lycoming
county bar and a sturdy follower of
Senator Quay. Ex-Congressman Hop
kins, who carried Clinton county agaliiHt
the combine In the fight last summer,
and H. J. Landers, of Wellsboro, are
also candidates. The Indications are
that Parsons and Hopkins will be the
delegates In spite of the opposition of
the attorney general and that lenders
will be the elector.
Indications point to the election of
IT. Y. James, of Danville, and C. E.
Oeyer, of Catawlssa, In the Seventeenth
district. Their opponents are W. K.
Holioway, of Danville: W. B. Faust,
Mt. Carniel, and J. H. Wagner, Watson
town. Jere 11. Rex, of Huntingdon,
secretary of the state Republican com
mittee, and resident clerk of the house
of representatives, is reasonably sure
of being chosen as one of the delegates
from the Eighteenth district. Captain
John A. Solders, of Chambersburg, Is
Franklin county's choice, but as the
congresman from the district lives in
that county his chances of election are
not encouraging to his friends. Union
and Snyder will make a hard fight for
the other delegate with the prospects in
favor of the former.
Charles H. Mulltn, of Mt. Holly, the
Quay leader in Cumberland county: Dr.
James A. Dale, of York, secretary of
the state fish commission, and a coin
bine lieutenant: Robert A. Shetter. nf
York, a Quay supporter; 8. L. Hlnes,
of McSherrystown, the largest Individ
ual cigar manufacturer In the state; W.
A. Hlnes, New Oxford, and W. B. Mc-
Ilhenny, Gettysburg, are rival candi
dates In the Nineteenth district. Mul
ltn and Dale are admitted by both fac
tions to have the best chances, although
Shelter Is giving the fish commissioner
the hardest fight of his political career.
The Ontlnok In Allegheny.
Chris L. Magee and Senator Fllnn are
reasonably certain of being chosen to
represent the Twenty-second district.
although they will be given a hard fight
by the uuayltes in Pittsburg. There is
no opposition to Congressman William
A. Stone and Robert A. McAfee, of Alle
gheny, in the Twenty-third district.
Both are warm friends of Senator
Quay. There are a number of candi
dates In each bf the four counties in
the Twentieth district, and matters are
in such chaotic shape that nobody can
tell at this time what will be the result.
The fight for congress and senator
will figure in the contest in the Twen
ty-first district. The candidates for
delegates are Harry Denney, Ligonler;
Major Joseph O. Beale, Leechburg;
John M. Leech, Indiana, and John
Wick, of Armstrong. All the candi
dates' are friends of Senator Quay.
Denney s chances are very good, and
Wilson is almost certain to win, as he
has the support of the party leaders in
Jefferson and Armstrong counties.
The delegates from the Twenty-
fourth district will come from Fayette
and Greene counties. Ex-Representative
John R. Bryne, a Quay supporter,
is the choice of Fayette. Greene has
not yet made its selection. The elector
from this district will come from that
part of Allegheny county embraced
within its borders. Washington county
has the. congressman and is satisfied
with this distribution of the honors.
Senator Quay will be a delegate from
the Twenty-fifth district through the
courtesy of the party leaders of Law
rence and Butler, who have practically
dareed to waive their claim for the
honor. The other delegates will either
be Simon Perkins, of Sharon, or ex-Con
gressman McDowell, of Mercer, chief
clerk of the national house of represen
tatives, either of whom is satisfactory
to Senator Quay.
Joseph Johnson, of Erie, Is the choice
of the party leaders of that county for
one of the delegates from the Twenty-
sixth district. Senator Andrews, chair
man of the Philadelphia "Lexow committee,-
may be chosen, to represent
Crawford county. Venango and- War
ren -will send the delegates from the
Twenty-seventh district, which also In
cludes McKean and Cameron. Ex-
Senator O. C. Allen, of Warren. Is the
choice of that county. Venango has
not yet made its selection.
Harry R. Wilson, of Clarion, will be
one of the delegates from the Twenty-
eighth district. He has been endorsed
by the Clarion county Republicans and
has tne support or senator Quay. Gov
ernor Hastings Is talked of for the other
delegate and will probably be chosen.
James Reed, of Elk, and A. E. Patton, of
ciearneia. are candidates. Reed has
the better chance and will be chosen If
the governor Is not a candidate. From
this review It wll be seen that Senator
Quay and the Pennsylvania delegation
win be important factors id the next
national convention.
INDUSTRIAL.
Following Is a summary of the Le
high Valley Railroad company's busi
ness for last year:
Gross earnings $18,087,130
Operating expenses 14,028,462
Net earnings I. ...... ...I 4.M.ST7

taxes .-
411.415
Net. available Income..,.
Interest, rentals, etc....
....;..$ 4,987,28
....... 4,24,380
Surplus $ WI.4tt
For the year 18(4 the surplus was about
$86,000. After making certain additions
and deductions, the balance to the cred
it of the profit and lass account on Nov.
SO, 1895. amounted to J7.C72.71S. against
7,730,15s at the end of the preceding
fiscal year. The total tonnage for the
year Is placed at 18.359.187. an Increase
over the preceding year of 2.237.C38 ton,
divided as follows: Anthracite coal,
12.045.38, increase Willi: bituminous
coal and cuke, 458,194. increase 128.687:
miscellaneous freight, 5,867.625, Increase
1,166.740 tons. There has also been an
increase in the tonnage carried one mile
of 455.016.16r,. the total having been 2,
606.846,310. There has. however, been a
decrease In the average freight rate, as
compared with 1894. of .08 of a cent or
more than enough to have produced 5
per cent, upon the entire capital of the
company. With an Increase of 1.070,
898 tons in anthracite and bituminous
coal tonnage, there was an increase In
transportation earnings of only $79,317.
while an Increase in miscellaneous
freights of 1.166.740 tons shows in
creased earnings of $866,204. The latter
tonnage, which was about 25 per cent,
greater than In that of 1894, would have
been still larger, the report says, but
for the lack of cars and motive power.
During the year the number of passen
gers carried was 4,748.087, a decrease of
64,615, but the number of passengers
carried one mile Increased 15,702,856 to
a total of 118,282,636. The passenger
averages are interesting, as follows:
Average mileage per passenger, 24.91
miles. Increase 3.59 miles; averago re
ceipts per passenger, 48.79 cents. In
crease 6.06 cents; average rate per mile,
1.958 cents, decrease .094 of a rent. The
report of the Lehigh Valley Coal com
pany accompanies that of the railroad
company. The tonnage shipped from
Its own collieries and those owned by it
but operated by tenants. 5,484.050 tons,
an Increase of 600,800 tons. The aver
age breaker time of all the collieries
operated by the company was a little
over 159 days, an Increase of about 18
days, as compared with 1894. The av
erage rate received for transportation
of coal was 5.65 cents per ton less than
in the previous year, and the company
realised a loss upon the coal mined by
It and that purchased from Individual
operators of 13.48 cents per ton. The
cost of production was somewhat less
than In 1894. The report concludes with
a brief review of the efforts made to Im
prove the condition of the anthracite
business last year.
Thomas A. Edison has just brought
to a practical conclusion his great ore
separating process at the mine at Edi
son, near Ogden, N. Y., on which he has
been at work for many years, and the
great plant Is In running order. The
scheme Is an Interesting one. in that
there Is no human Intervention during
the entire process from start to finish.
When the cars of ore and rock are
dumped In large masses Into the mas
sive crushers that form the first step
in the process the rest of the process Is
entirely automatic, the crushed rock
and ore being carried ' automatically
from one set of crushers to another by
means of endless belts and bucket ele
vators, till the material is reduced to
the requisite fineness, and then another
series of belts and elevators carry it to
the separating house, where the mate
rial falls in a fine stream across a field
of large electro magnets, which divert
the iron from the direct line of fall and
drop It Into one receptacle, while the
refuse and rock fall Into another. Au
tomatic carriers take the iron ore
thence to the bricking plant, where, by
Ingenious mechanism, over which the
great inventor has spent thousands of
dollars In experimentation, the ore Is
mixed with binding material and
pressed Into small brick for convenience
in handling. These are then baked and
are ready for market.
Flttston Item: Simpson & Watkins
have changed their plana of sinking the
main shaft at the Mt. Lookout colliery
while a new breaker Is being erected.
The sinking of the other shaft-will be
the only work carried on In the mean
time. Work has already been given 'to
men living in the company houses and
large wagons have been secured to
transport the men to the Forty Fort and
Duryea, where they are employed. The
work of rebuilding will occupy at least
five months. The best time ever made
on reconstructing a breaker was at No.
3 Plymouth, Which was completed In
100 days. In this case it is said that
timber was already framed to be used
in another breaker.
Plttston Gazette :' Until within a
week the Sibley Coal company has been
shipping the coal from its colliery at
Sibley over the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western road. It being delivered to
the lattsr by the Lehigh Valley road at
Lackawanna and Bloomsburg junction.
A change has been made, however, and
now the coal Is transported by the Le
high Valley road over the mountain
cut-off at Jenkins junction, whence it
Is carried over the Wllkes-Barre and
Eastern and the New York Susquehan
na and Western. The two Jermyn col
lieries on the Sibley branch of the Le
high Valley road also ship coal by this
route.
Coal shipments for the month of De
cember were by the Erie railway, 102,154
tons. For the season, via canal, 602.289
tons: Erie railway, 1,143.561 tons. To
tal for season, 1,550,850 tons.- Coal on
hand at- Honesdale, 134,317 tons. Coal
mined and shipped by the Delaware and
Hudson Canal company for month, 341,
361 tons; for season, 4,299,778 tons.
The Reading coal shipments for the
week ended "Jan. 11 aggregated 269.845
tons, an Increase over the same period
last year of 27,776 tons. For the fiscal
year to date the shipments were 1,621,
784 tons, an Increase over the corre
sponding period last year of 260,003 tons.

HORRORS OF SUPERSTITION.
From the Chicago News.
Under the early English law two jur
ies were present In the interests of the
accuser and the accused. The ordeat
the accused went through was as fol
lows: After three days' of fasting and
prayer a caldron was made to boll in
church and a stone was dropped In It.
Both juries tested the water and when
they agreed It boiled the accused bared
his arm and took out his stone. His
arm was then wrapped in a cloth an
sealed up. On the third day It was un
wrapped and If perfectly healed he was
Innocent and allowed to go. Another
method was to carry a bar of red-hot
Iron a certain distance. It Is suggested
that the clergy had a secret method for
curing burns.
In southern India In the lost century
native Christians. would hold the arm
in boiling oil and come out scathliess.
This Is testified to by foreign priests.
One woman whose husband was in
tensely jealous at last said she would go
through the oil ordeal to prove .to him
she was Innocent. Her husband him
self heated the oil to the boiling point
and she kept her arm In it till he said
she might remove it. The arm was un
harmed and the woman claimed that
the oil felt like tepid water. It is known
that the human hand can be plunged
without harm Into molten metal, the
hand being protected sufficiently by the
natural moisture.
In Borneo a Chinese firm meant to es
tablish a place of business not long ago.
The European Inhabitants were aston
ished one morning to see the Chinese
merchant walking down a street strewn
with red-hot embers, he proving by so
doing that his store was a food one.
Some secret preparation Is doubtless
used by the men who go through the
fire ordeal. ?-v-- ...-!
In Fiji a recent traveler not only saw
but photographed the natives walking
barefoot over hot coals. The fillets of
grass about their ankles were not even
scorched.
At Pondtcherry In Bouchet's time
there was a very disagreeable ordeal.
A deadly snake and a ring were In
closed in a hollow ball and the accused
had to rescue the ling without being
bitten by the snake. A substituted ring
probably saved many lives. ,
If in the hours of deer wisdom we
should speak the severest truth, we should
say mat we had never made a sacrifice.
