Works to Start I'p.
Pittsburg, Aug. 24. Iron and stcet
men have chec-rliiR news. They Bay
they Fee the signs of dawning prosper
ity. They are counting on a boom In
the Iron and steel trade after the elec
tion, nnd they are nut men who are
likely to set enthusiastic without sub
Flnncri I'liiaon. Their hopefulness ts
Blivu''.c;..t because it hus long baien an
n:::om t Ii commercial world that
tho ' i.rlness Is the barometer ot
ti-f! ""lifs manufacturers are re
fus.iv l:i!f time contracts, except at
advanced prices, and they are getting
many idle plants in readiness to re
sume work.
The iron and steel men base their
predictions on the belief that the bet
tor sense of the American people will
defeat the free nnd unlimited coinage
of silver. It may be urged that this
is nn unsubstantial basis, but tho men
In the Iron trades are not sentimental.
They have millions Invested In plants
nnd stockf, nnd their judgment is not
founded on mere desire or faith. They
have too much nt stake for any bucIi
uncertain ml. They Insist on facts
as the basis for reaching conclusions
about trade and they have taken
means to get at those facts. They find
that the east will be solid tor AlcKin
ley, v.-hiw election means protection
as well ns sound money. They hnvo
satisfied tht'inselves that the silver
S ntlment is subsiding in several of the
weftirn states that were In doubt sev
eral weeks ago, and the electoral vote
of these are counted for the Republi
can ticket.
CONCLrSIOXS FHOM Jt'DOMENT.
These are not the conclusions of
politicians who have contracted the
habit of making a bluff by claiming
everything. The big men In the iron
and steel business have connections
with business men in all parts of the
country, and these are men whfts?
opinions are entitled to consideration.
The change from doubt to hopefulness
began Immediately after Candidate;
Ilrynn'g speech in New York. The
cheerful tono has been growing stead
ily stronger, and Iron brokers today
declared that the Importation pf gold,
although only n matter of a few days,
had already had a marked effect f.jr
the better. They say all the Indica
tions now point to a brisk demand for
pig Iron nnd finished product.
Iron nnd Rteel men are acting In an
ticipation of n. revival of trade next
winter. Confident of more prosperous
times, with a greater demand for their
product, they are showing much hesi
tancy about entering Into long-time
contracts except at prices that are
above ruling; quotations. In explana
tion of this change in their policy they
se.y they count on a boom after elec
tion, whose results they expect will re
store confidence In the business world.
WAITINO POLICY WILL, END.
IHiyers havp practiced a waiting pol
icy for several months past on account
of the uncertainty of the outcome of
the election. There has been a big re
duction in the production of pig Iron.
Much of this was due to the Impos
sibility of getting paper discounted by
the frightened banks, and this forced
the furnaces to shut down. The sit
uation Is being faced philosophically,
nnd throughout the trade there Is a dis
position to give all the flexibility to or
dinary usages that conditions will al
low. A number of big manufacturing con
cerns are making preparations to re
sume operations. In expectation of a
brisk demand for their product after
the election. Among these are the Re
public Iron works of this city, which
will start their 10-inch mill Monday. The
puddling departments are being put in
order for operation, and ns soon ns
repairs under way are completed the
Woiks will be put in full operation. Tho
Oliver wire mill closed down tonight
for repairs, with the expectation thnt it
will have a long run after resumption.
It will Btart up ngsln by Sept. 1, and its
managers are making preparations for
a heavy run of business. Other man
ufacturers talk of Increased activity
next month, and the cheerful feeling
In Iron and steel circles Is having a ben
eficial effect on all lines of trade.
IN JAIL FOR A PALTRY DEBT.
Cruel Treatment of n New Jersey ill tin
HccaiiMo ol I'npnid Tnxes.
New Brunswick, N. J., Aug. 24.
Homesick and heartbroken, with crim
inals for companions, Peter Perrlne Is
confined In jail in this city because of
unpaid taxes, amounting to J3.S0. He
was arrested on Monday at his home
In Jamesburf? and brought to the Jail

missioners of the borough of Jamesburg,
charging him -with failure to pay a
poll tax of $1. a dog tax of 50 cents, with
costs, bringing the total amount up to
$3.80.
When Perrlne, who is 39 years old,
Tvns arrested, he left his wife and two
boys penniless and without any means
of support. The fear that his little
family will be compelled to go to the
poor house while he Is helpless In the
Jail has made the unfortunate man's
punishment all the greater.

Brothers' circus passed through her
this rooming en route to Indiana, and
shortly after Its arrival the employes
found thai one of their cages contain
ing a large Bengal tiger had been

ertible difficulty succeeded In roping
him and again getting him Into the

Duluth, Minn., Aug. 24. Well dig
gers made a peculiar And on the prop
erty of W. H. Hartley in this city.
They were down fifteen feet below the
surface In an excavation for a well,
and had blasted through six feet of
solid rock, when they struck a spring
gushing up through a crevice. Gaily
disporting Itself at the moutn of the
spring was a unique member of the
frog species, about an inch long In
body and three Inches long from tip
of outspread forefoot to tip ot its hind
feet.
Tho frog is of a white nnd light
brown color, and apparently has no
mouth, although it Is possessed of
bright black eyes. It climbs up and
dawn the smooth sides of the glass
jur In which It Is confined with ns
much ease as along the bottom. Its
color proves that It has been long since
It has seen daylight, and In all prob
ability it came up into its secluded
retreat In the bed of rock oy way ot
the hidden spring.
TO REORGANIZE CHINA.
An Allinnco Between Russia and
Englnnd Suggested.
London, Aug. 14. The Dally Mall to
day publishes nn Interview with an
anonymous Russian statesman In which
the latter Is quoted ns suggesting that
Oreat Britain co-operate with Russia
to reorganize China, Russia taking the
benefits occurring In the northern half
and Oreat Rrltnln In the southern half,
by means of a great China company
which would form the nucleus of a
future government, ns In the case of
India.
The statesman Interviewed snys he
regards the Franco-Russo alliances as
being without real strength, nnd tho
love for It nil on the aide of Frnnee,
which Russia Is utilizing ns n means of
borrowing money. Russia, he adds,
would much prefer England as nn ally
in tho cast, and he spenkn of Lt Hung's
tour as the endeavor of China to escape
from her Russian creditor, nnd he pic
tures Europe as vying In servility to

(Jntnliliiig Implements Destroyed by
'Fire in n Public Square.
Columbia, Mo., Aug. 21. All the pos
sessions by which Jeff Hublett, of this
city, obtained a livelihood were con
sumed In a bonfire In front of thecourt
liouse last night, In the presence of sev
eral hundred spectators, hublett is a
notorious gambler, who conducted a
poker dive on liattlo row, an alley near
the court house. He was recently ar
rested and sentenced to thirty days In
Jail. It was decided by the constable
publicly to burn hla poker outfit as a
warning to others.
In the fire three tables, nine decks of
cards and .a quantity of poker chips
were consumed. A number of young
gamblers who had decided to reform
stood in a circle about the fire tossing
poker chips into the flames. While the
fire crackled and the people cheered, a
song was heard from the Jail near by.
It was the voice of Sublett, who stood
behind the bars of a window overlook
ing the scene singing the doxology.
FLYING MACHINE A SUCCESS.
Professor l.ninson's Invention Sails
Through the Airnt Old Orchard.
Old Orchard, Me., Aug. 24. Professor
I.amson's Hying machine flew at the
New England Agricultural society's
fair yesterday at Rlgby Park. There
was great excitement as the queer
craft was cut loose, and when the last
rope was cut Charles Lamson. the son
of the Inventor, was caught in one of
the ropes nnd lifted several feet from
the ground. The lay figure of a man
was placed In the seat that wou!;l
naturally be occupied by the operator
of the machine, and as the figure got
bnck to earth without sustaining any
damage, it is thought the air ship is a
safe vehicle.
The machine simply floated over the
grounds, held captive by ropes. When
it had ascended 00 feet the ropes
parted and the machine settled slowly
und gracefully to the earth.

port doctrines that I believe tend to

tures of the Chicago platform."

THE CAREER OF
HOKE SMITH
A Glimpse of the Secretary Who Has
Disappointed Cleveland.
HIS SUDDEN LEAP TO NOTORIETY
On Account of His Peculiar Name
and the Pension Outrages the Ob
scure Georgia Cracker Became
FamousCleveland's Attitude To
wards the Chicago Plutform--Davy
Hill Has Remained on the Perch
Too Long.
Bureau of The Tribune,
501 14th street, N. W.,
Washington, Aug. 24.
Hoke Smith has come and is about to
go, A little more than three years ago
Mr. Smith was unknown beyond the
borders of Georgia, and people say there
were several sections In the "Cracker"
state that knew him not. But now the
name of Hoke Smith Is known through
out the length and breath of the land.
Frqm almost total obscurity he leaped
Into fame upon the incoming of the
present administration. His name
Hoke had a good deal to do with the
notoriety he has gained. At least It had
more to do with making him famous
than anything he ever did either before
or since he became a part and parcel
of President Cleveland's official family.
The newspapers all over tho country
dwelt at greater or lesser length upon
the euphonious name of Hoke hence
Mr. Smith's fame. However odd the
name of Hoke nmf sound to people Mr.
Smith is very proud ot it. It was the
surname of his mother's family, and It
was his uncle, Samuel Hoke, who was
Instrumental in educating Mr. Smith
nnd thus making lt possible for him
to become one of the president's oflicial
advisers In later years. It is no won
der, therefore, thnt Mr. Smith Is proud
of his nnine of Hoke. It has served
him well. If It had been plain John
Smith, or Rill Smith or any other ordin
ary name it possibly would not have at
tracted the attention the name of Hoke
nns, nnd It would, therefore, have gone
down into history unsung and un
known. Secretary Smith has not attracted
any particular attention as a cabinet
officer, possibly because tho Interior
deittrtment affords only few oppor
tunities in which to display greatness.
He gained some notoriety by attacking
the pension system, and broght down
upon his head the wrath of the old
soldiers. He got out of the muddle,
however, by shifting the responsibility
upon a subordlnato officer the late
! Commissioner of. Pensions Loehren
who was a gallant soldier himself, and
who later left the pension bureau be
cause he could no longer stand the out
rages being perpetrated upon his old
comrades In arms. Secretary Smith
has given very little of his time to tho
business coming before his department.
He has kept up his law practice In
(lenrgla and also devoted considerable
time to making political speeches. Of
course, the work of the Interior depart
ment has been kept up, but it was done
by his assistants. Second Assistant
Secretary Reynolds has done most of
the work, ns the first lieutenant. Col
onel Sims, of Mississippi, has followed
more or less In the footsteps of his
superior.
The passing of Hoke therefore, Is
not n public calamity. The country will
survive the temporary shock, If It can
be called such.
CLEVELAND'S ATTITUDE.
There is very little doubt now ns to
President Cleveland's attitude towards
the Chlcngo platform and ticket. He
Is opposed to both. That much Is cer
tain. If he Is not In fnvor of a third
ticket then there is nothing In the old
adage "that straws show which way the
wind blows." All of his close and Inti
mate friends Senator.! Vllns, Palmer.
Oray, Lindsay and Caffrey are tho
leading spirits In the Indinnapolis con
vention. Mr. Cleveland Is expected to
speak either during that convention or
immediately following lt.
Senator Hill has come to the forks In
the road. He must choose one or the
other pretty quick. There Is no time
to be lost. Hill 1ms an ambitious rival
In the person of llourke Cockran, who
wants to succeed him In the United
States senate, and he must get down off
the fence and declare himself either
for or against the Issues promulgated
by the regular Democracy at Chicago,
lt is doubtful itow If Mr. Hill could
innke his peace with the free silver
people If he cared to do so. He burned
his bridges when ho prevented the New
York delegation from taking part In the
nomination at Chicago, and later when
he refused to attend the Rryan notifica
tion meeting at Madison Square Garden.
Hill feels, however, that no man who
Indorses the Chicago ticket can be elect
ed to tho senate from New York. He
also knows that the Democrat who
places himself outside the pale of the
regular organization In New York,
which is now supporting Rryan, can
not hope for much. So It will be seen
that Mr. Hill is at present between wind
and water. W. K. B.
POPULISTS AROUSED.
The Nonthcrn Wing Will Not Support
' llrvnn I'lilcs Srwnll Is Shelved.
Rlelgh, N. C Aug. 24. Tho Progres
sive Farmer, the oflicial organ of the
National Farmers' Alliance, says edi
torially today:
"Millions of Populists will refuse to
support I'.ryan If Sewall Is not taken
down. The Populists have met the sil
ver Democrats more than half way,
but If Sewall is not taken down a presi
dential candidate Is certain. This feel
ing Is in the north nnd west as well as
In the south."
RIVAL OF THE BRIDE
Hired a Child to Huin licr Wedding
(own.
Chester, Pa., Aug. 24. The handsome
traveling dress of Miss Ilunce, who was
married at the Immaculate Heart
church, was ruined by dampened flour
thrown by an 11-year-old girl. It seems
that a rival of the bride paid the little
girl to throw the Hour, and her aim
was good, as !t struck Ml?s Bunce be
tween the Ehoulders. and falling, spread
over her gown, ruining It, -
Efforts are being made to ferret out
the perpetrator of the act.
AMERICAN SILVER IN CANADA.
The People Mill Take It nt Par in
Spite of the Dank. .
Quebec, Aug. 24. The Canadian war
upon American sliver and paper money
Is relpxlrg. The amount of discount
has been rduced In general trade, and
in many cases the money Is nuw taken
at par. The banks are still endeavor
ing to. keep up the boycott, but this
Is altogether from Interested motives.
They find that the plethora of Amer
ican money In Canada interferes with
their own circulation. The Issue ot the
notes of Canadian banks amounts to
nearly $32,000,000 and for getting these
Into circulation the banks pay their
brokers a percentage of from one-tenth
to one-quarter of 1 per cent. The more
American money the banks ran banish
the more of their own notes they can
circulate. This Is why they have jumped
at the silver erase movement as an ex
cuse for levying the present discount.
Now that people here have had time
to reflect upon the situation, they have
gauged the motive underlying the action
ot the banks, and have realized that
money that Is at par In the United
States cannot be worth much less so
near to the states as Canada is. There
Is also a thorough confidence of the
ultimate defeat of the present sliver
movement.
MATABELES WANT RHODES.
Agree to End the War If He Will Re
main in the Country.
London, Aug. 24. Acordlng to a
special dispatch from Buluwayo re
ceived by the London papers, the Mata
bele chiefs promised not to fight the
English forces provided Cecil Rhodes
would agree to remain In the country
and care for them. They also asked
for the removal of a prominent govern
ment official of whose conduct they
complained bitterly. Cecil Rhodes re
plied, telling them that the official re
ferred to had already left the govern
ment. He then asked the chiefs wheth
er they were for peace or for war.
Secumbo, the leading chief, lnld his
gun and assegai before Mr. Rhodes and
signified thnt they were In favor of
peace. Cecil Rhodes promises to spare
their lives, hut said that the surrender
must be unconditional. At the con
clusion of the conference Secumbo
cried:
"Oo In peace, my father, greatest of
chiefs." After describing the scene,
Cecil Rhodes Is reported to have said:
"It was one to make life worth liv
ing." Two of the chiefs Were brothers of
Lubengula, the Matabele King, who
was Bald to have been killed nt the
close of the Matabele war In 1X91.
THOUGHT HE WAS A BEAR.
Nephew of tho Lute Fx-tJovernor
ItUHsell Shoots n uidc.
Oldtown, Me.. Aug. 24. One of the
most heart-rending occurrences which
ever took place In the Maine woods oc
curred here yesterday, when Charles
Theodore Russell, nephew of ex-Oover-nnr
Russell, shot and killed Charles Pot
ter, a guide. The boy, ns he might well
be termed. Is only 16 years old, and this
was his first trip into the woods. He
was green with the rifle, but he was
an enthusiastic sportsman.
Mr. Russell, who was standing near
the tent, heard a noise In the woods,
nnd saw an object moving. Supposing
it to be a bear, he got his rifle and fired,
killing Potter.
Charles Potter was 50 years old, and
was one of the best guides In this sec
tion. His hume was at Mllo, Me.
SAVED BY HIS DOG.
The Hull Had tho Farmer Down, but
Was llrnten Oil.
Enston, Md., Aug. 21. Harry RaJ
cllffe, a farmer and tax collector foi
st. Michael's district, came near being
killed by a bull In his farmyard today.
He was taking a ring fiom the bull's
nose, when the animal became Infu
riated, got Mr. Radcllffe down and bo
gnn to gore and stamp him.
He fought the be.ist at the disadvan
tage, but one of his arms was lacerat
ed and he was otherwise hurt. Fortu
nately his faithful dog was near-by
and came to his master's assistance,
attacking the bull and enabling Mr.
Radcllffe to regain his feet. The bull
pursued him, however, nnd had to be
shot down before It desisted.
MONSTER SNAKE IN INDIANA.
People of (inhesion Trnil the Gigan
tic Itcptile to n Care.
Logansport.'Ind., Aug. 24. The resi
dents of the little town of Galveston,
near here, were excited this morning
by finding the trail of a monster snnk
that had passed through the streets
during the night. A searching party
was organized, and followed the track
of the reptile to a natural cave three
miles away.
Late reports say that the searchers
are digging from the ba?k of the cave,
and smoke will be used to Induce his
snakeshlp to appear. Business Is
practically suspended In the village,
and efforts will be made to capture
the snake alive.
To Remove Substances from the F.yc.
When an Insect, a grain of sani, or nny
similar substance lodges on the surface
of the eye, the consequence Is pain nnd
inflammation, terminating, if egleutetl, In
obscurity or dimness of vision, and some
times loss of slHlit. The substance may
either llo loose on the surface, or, having
penetrated the outer coat, may there re
main fixed. In the former ease It Is ally
removed by means of camel-hair pencil
dipped lit oil, or what Is better, n bit of
white pnprr rolled up to the size ot a qtnll
and softened in the month. When the
ruhstnnce Is nxed In the coast of the eye,
a surgical operation becomes necessary
to remove It. The accident Is frequent
amongst smiths, and is recognized
amonqat them as a "fire In the eye,"
seme one of the craft being usually cele
brated for removing it, employing for
Hint purpose his mill, his tongue, or tho
first ruile Instrument that may come with
in his reach.
