UVE NEWS OF THE
INDUSTRIAL WORLD
PRESENT CONDITION OF THE
PIQ IRON MARKET.
Commission Throwsters of Poterson,
N. J., aud of tills State Aro En
deavoring to Form n Combination.
The Way Eben E. MoLeod Made a
Hit with President Truesdale.
Thomas M. Williams, of Lykens,
Pa., Has Rotlred from His Posi
tion as Mining Superintendent.
A trade exchange says: "The pis
Iron market continues unchanged, but
In ii little feverish. People are paying
very high prices, but are a little more
cautious about long contracts. The
cry of nn iron famine, which Is still
reiterated by some self-styled organs
of the trade. Is losing its force of repe
tition. People aro getting used to it
and art- no longer frightened by it.
Moreover, they are realizing that there
vill bo plenty of Iron to go round, with
n reasonable amount of patience,
though everybody cannot expect to get
deliveries at once.
"For raw material the range of prices
Is shown in our Pittsburg and Ala
bama letters. At present prices the
furnace-men ought to bo making plen
ty of money. Their low-price con
tracts are now generally nuuicu "i.
nnd they are beginning to get the bene
lit of the higher range now quoted.
"Finished material, which was a lit
tle behind pig iron and billets, Is still
going up. The chief advances noted
this week are on wire and nails, bars
nnd tin-plates.
"Steel rails aro in more limited de
mand, the prices having made rail
roads hesitate a little. The mills, how
ever, have work enough to keep them
going for the rest of this year and
into 1900.
"Kxport Inquiries contlne frequent,
notwithstanding the high prices. The
fact Is that demand is large and prices
nre high In Europe as well as here. It
Is one of these periods which come at
more or less regular Intervals when
the buyer does not nsk the price, bul
only whether he can get the material
he wants."
Throwsters to Combine.
The commission throwsters of Pater
son, N. J-, and Pennsylvania have
again taken up the movement that was
started several months ago, to form
this branch of the silk Industry Into
consolidation, with a view to better
controlling the trade and maintaining
the prices, which have reached, It Is
claimed, such a low stage that it is
almost impossible to get an operat
ing and living prollt out of the busi
ness. Although little has been heard
of the project of late, It was not dead,
but simply slumbering. Jerome C.
Head, of the William Strange com
pany, and n member of the silk throw
ing firm of Read & Lovatt, of AVeth
erly. Pa.. Is the prime mover in the
plan and has taken an active part in
bringing about a combination. Mr.
Read went to Kurope in the spring, but
recently returned; the schemp has been
taken up again and it looks now as if
the combination would be effected, as
It is said there will be no lack of capi
tal to back the enterprise.
A meeting of the commission throw
sters was called for Saturday after
noon last In the rooms of the Silk asso
ciation In Patcrson and representatives
of eighteen of the largest throwing
concers were In attendance. Jerome C.
Head was chosen chairman and stated
the object of the meeting and the plans
for preliminary organization were dis
cussed. It was decided to have the
chair appoint a committee on organiz
ation nnd report back. The commit
tee has not yet been named by the
chair, but will be In a day or two.
In the meantime the advantages of
such a combination as Is proposed will
be laid before those throwsters who
have not yet signified their Intention
of joining. The consolidation will
take in Pennsylvania and New Jersey
throwsters.
Mr. Williams Has Resigned.
One of the best known and most ex
perienced men In mines and mining in
tho United States Is Thomas M. 'Wil
liams, of Lykens, Pa., who has resigned
Ills position as general superintendent
for tho Pennsylvania railroad collieries
nt L,ykens Valley.
Mr. Williams was mine Inspector of
the Wllkes-Uarre district from 1S74 to
1SS0 and after a term as inspector he
Hssumed the responsible position of
general foreman of nil tho collieries
of the Susquehanna Coal company at
Jsantlcoke, under George T. Morgan,
superintendent. He was later ap
pointed 'superintendent of the Wll
liamstown and Lykens Valley collieries
tor the Pennsylvania Ilnilroad com
Jiany. On Thursday last he sent in his
teslgnatlon, to take effect Aug. 1, af
ter a continuous service of seventeen
years in some of tho most gaseous and
extensive coal mines In tho country.
The cause of his resigning is falling
health, he having suffered severely for
over a year.
Mr. Williams came to this country
with his mother from Uaniddel, near
Pontypool, Wales, landing In Philadel
phia In the fall of 1S4S from a small
railing ship named the Mary Pleasant.
One of the passengers on the little
craft was Superintendent Benjamin
Hughes, of this city, who also recently

resigned as general superintendent of
the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern company. The voyage In the Mary
Pleasant took Jive weeks and one day.
After Aug. 1 Mr. Williams will take
a much needed rest at tho seaside,
where he expects to recuperate his
health. He has been nn active toller
for llfty-seven of the sixty-four yeais
of his busy life.
Made a Hit with Truesdnle.
When Eben E. McLeod, the new
chairman of the Western Passenger
association, was tho representative of
the Pock Island In Pittsburg, ho had
occasion at one time to ask for trans
portation for a friend of his in this
city. He preferred his request to tho
general olilces, but was refused, tho
reply coming from the general passen
ger agent that W. H. Truesdale, now
president of the Delaware, Lnokawan
na and Western, but the general man
ager of the Rock Island, had issued
orders directly opposed to that sort of
requests.
Mr. McLeod thereupon got upon a
train nnd went to Chicago to see about
tho refusal. Ho was told again what
he had been told In the letter. Ho car
ried his case to Mr. Truesdale himself,
nnd a few minutes after he went Into
the office of tho general manager he
came out smiling with the transporta
tion he had sought. How he broke
down the iron-clad rule has never be
come known, but his first meeting with
Mr. Truesdale so Impressed thnt official
that McLeod was very shortly made
assistant general passenger agent of
tho line. His further advancements
have undoubtedly been due to his de
termination to get that transportation
for the Pittsburg man Pittsburg Com
mercial Gazette.
Mine to Resume.
An official notice has been posted by
the Lehigh nnd Wllkes-Harre Coal
company at Its No. !) colliery, Sugar
Notch, to the effect that on Monday
work will bo resumed at that colliery,
which has been idle for about six weeks
past, during which It has been under
golnlng extensive repairs.
The improvements make the colliery
one of the llnest and best equipped In
the conl regions. Although the mine
has been worked for a, large number
of years there 1j still immense deposits
of coal there, and It is tho opinion of
experienced mining men that it will
take seventy-five years to exhaust the
product of the mine. No. 9 is one of
the most productive of all the old
mines of the Lehigh nnd Wllkes-Harro
Coal company.
Incandescent Lamps in Mines.
Tho one disadvantage in employing
incandescent lamps In coal mines now
that the installation of current is us
ually made for the purpose of operat
ing electrical cutters or electrical loco
motives Is the possibility of the Igni
tion of lire damp should the globe bo
broken by a blast or by being struck.
To obviate the possibility of such nn
explosion a German Inventor proposes
to provide a lamp base with a spring
switch and mount the lamp against a
ilexlblo diaphram, so that, should the
lamp receive a jar, tho spring will be
released, thus cutting off tho current.
Tho whole device is protected by a
hemispherical glass tube.
This and That.
II. P. Rlgert, of St. Paul, formerly
Identified with tho Pennsylvania rail
road, has been appointed chief clerk
to Superintendent Kussell nnd assumed
his duties yesterday.
The Boston colliery of the Delaware
and Hudson company nt Larksvllle
will bo Idle for six weeks, as the com
pany Is making extensive repairs to
tho breaker and engine house.

his position.
There was quite a serious squeeze
Monday In tho workings of No, 2 col
liery of the Delaware and Hudson
company at Plymouth. It Is hoped
that it will not extend so as to throw
any number of men und boys out of
employment.

Chinese Physlcinns.
Tho taking of a first dose of Chinese
medicine Is an ordeal which can bo
better Imagined than described. It 13
invariably a bitter decoction. If the
patient prefers, tho herbs are given
him In square pasteboard boxes hold
ing about a pint each, and he "cooks"
them nt home. A Chlneso prescription
contains from ten to sixteen varieties
of herbs, flowers, nuts, gums, barks
and roots. More than 3,000 species
are clossilled nnd used ns medicine,
but of these only some COO nre In gen
eral usi. Whether the patient takes
the remedies at the sanitarium or at
home, he is requested to present him
self every duy before tho doctor for
another pulse examination, so that e
ery change In his condition may be not
ed and tho prescription may be varied
accordingly. The Chinese nre clever
chemists In this Hue of pharmaceuti
cal preparations, and prepare many
medicines for their own uso In the
form of pills nnd powders; but these
are employed by tho Chinese physi
cians In treating tho aliments of white
people only to a limited extent. Tho
reason given is that tho simple, hot
decoctions of the fresh root or plant
are tho best form, because the most
readily assimilated Into the system.

STEADY GROWTH IN
SCHOOL ATTENDANCE
LAST YEAR SHOWED A RE
MARKABLE INCREASE.
There Woro 17,204 Names on the
Rolls in 1800, as Compared with
15,427 in 1808, and 14,500 in
1807 Averago Attendance Did
Not Compare ns Well as the En
rollment Owing, Probably, to tho
Long and Severe Winter Number
of Pupils at Each School.
Some Interesting figures nre given In
the annual report of tho uttendanco of
the public schools just completed by
Miss Potts, secretary to City Superin
tendent Howell. Last year showed a
remarkable increase over tho previous
year and also over the increase of tho
previous year as compared with tho
year preceding.
In 1S97 tho total enrollment was 14,
5C0; in 1S9S, 15,472, nnd in 1S99, 17,294.
The percentage of increase in tho mat
ter of averago attendance was so
marked but it was nevertheless large.
In 1SD7, tho average attendance was
10.18D; in 1S9S, 11,129; In 1S99, 11,213.
The long and severe winter Is likely ac
countable for the largo discrepancy be
tween the last year's enrollment and
attendance.
Below uro given summnrles of tho
table showing the total enrollment, av
erage attendance and per cent, attend
ance, of males and females; tho en

4 "Vie Mill Cannot Grind
with Water That's Past"
A fagged out, tearful little
woman said this in telling her
cares and weaknesses. Her
friend encouraged by telling of a relative
-who 'was cured of fust such troubles by
Hood's SarsapArilU. The little woman
now has iearsofoy, for she took Hood's,
which put her blood in prime order, and
she lives on the strength of the present in
stead of worrying about that of the past.
Told Her Friend "After having
'goitre on my neck 42 years Hood's Sarsa
parilla completely aired me. was so
glad I told friends about it and a lady in
Wisconsin who read of my cure told me
she also took Hood's for the same trouble
and was cured. She thanked me." SMrs.

HUNTING WILD QEESE.
Decoy Fowl That Are Glad to Entrap
Their Own Kind.
From tho Chicago lntur.Ocean.
In many parts of tho south wild geeso
breeding is carried on for the benefit
of sportsmen, especially along tho reed
bound shores of Hyde county, N. C,
where years ago some one wounded a
goose, bred from It and spread its pro
duct through tho district. Hero aro
goose yards, and as soon ns a hunter
enters the yard tho Inmates know, like
dogs, that they nro going hunting, and
squawk, fight and struggle to bo the
first to bo taken out and placed In tho
coop or bag In which they are carried
to the grounds. (Pieces of green, tough
rotted turf are cut and staked out In
four or live Inches of water, and a
goose Is tethered to each stake and al
lowed to stand on the sod. Thus placed,
tho goose has tho appearance of rest
ing. The hunter retires to his blind to
watch, not the skyline, but the tethered
geese. Suddenly one stirs, another fol
lows suit, a muilled sound Is made by
one, and then away off will be seen a
streak of moving gray dots, which
quickly develop into a Ilock, gander and
goose in the lead, goslings to the rear.
The birds drop well out of shot, to see
If the quality of the geese on tho sods
permits a visit without loss of caste.
The goslings, heedless of social forms,
gayly start forward to gossip with the
decoys, but the parents head them off,
scolding, cackling with many modula
tions and much emphasis of tone, gab
bling wise saws and modern Instances
innumerable, as wise parents have
done to children since the world began,
until gradually tho gander himself
yields to the clamorous gabble of tho
decoy Hock, which has kept up a Hood
of praises of the choice feeding ground.
Ho slowly drifts down with much Im
portance, his females behlnd.the young
sters In their train. His eye is glued on
that natch of reeds, and even a man's
eye nt tho opening no bigger than a
dollar, a bright coat button glinting In
tho sun, the gleam of a diamond or the
lock of a gun, even the awkward Hop
of a tethered goose from off Its sod, Is
sufficient to smd them away bag and
baggage, and good-day, good-day to
them.
A curious feature of these live decoy
geese is that they must not bo shot
over. Tho hunter Is warned that, no
matter what happens, he must
wait until the strangers paddle to
ono side r the other of the decoys,
and falling, that, he must let his
chance go by, for If ho once tires
directly over the tethered birds the
get nervous, and at the approach of
stranger Hocks remember what hap
pened, and, showing fear, disturb and
unsettle the strangers. Firing to tha
side they do not appear to mind and
the older birds who have been out ono
or two seasons, when they see the gun
go 'up, "down charge," like a veteran
setter or pointer, on their pieces of
sod, chattering like parrots after tho
wild birds are dropped. Tamed geso
have been used on Long Island and
other places, but not so generally as
In Hyde county.
On the great South bay, Long Isl
and, the geese are shot from quaint
boats, which are so designed that they
will lloat on water or may be pushed
along tho Ice by the occupant, having
steel runners underneath. When the
geeso are around, the hunter, In n
white oversult, pushes off from shore
and paddles over to the foe, his Im
petus carrying him on to it. Then
with Iron-shod ore he pushes over
It, across the next open water and
the next Hoe, until he gets to the piece
of open water he alms at, far enough
removed from the shore. Then ho
places his stakes, draws his white
apron over him, and, with his gun
across bis chest, lies back In his boat
to freeze until the geese come. If they
are around some nre generally bagged;
but it is cold, hard work. Neverthe
less, the grounds could not be reached
by any other method, tho Ice being
too treacherous to bear an ordinary
blind. This the geese appear to know.
