"News' Notes.
Master Car Builder Canfleld, of the
I.acluiuunna car shops, will turn out
today the handsomest rate car ever
built or temodulled by his company.
Several month"! ago this car, No. 5S2,
was Bent Into th shopi to be remod
elled, but In fact it has been rebuilt
from "top tr bottom." Its completion
marks a deolded change In the
policy of the oar building department
of the company regarding the com
fort and magnificence of Its dining
cars.
The officials admit the fact that their
cats of thl order hae never been In
keeping with the othei large roads.
They have decided that hereafter
their"? will be second to none In the
country and that traveler when
discussing luihoad affairs will point
with no littlp pride to the dining cars
of the Lackawnnmi toad. The exti-rlor
of car No. fiSU Is p.ii tlculaily hand
some. The body of the car has been
painted the standaid coloi of the
company, olive greon. Along the panel
on either side In the Inscription In Ro
man letters of gold "Lackawanna." He
low is "cafe cat" and "5S2" in gold
The decoiatUe woik is also In gold.
The Intei lor Is stilklngly beautiful.
The carpets, draperies and lambre
iiulns me of a goblin blue. The cell
ing and frieze ate of a lighter shade
of blue, with gold ornamentations,
which makes a contract that unques
tionably could not be improved upon.
The paintings and decoiatlons are the
original design of Master far Painter
Miller. The wood woik Is of a rich
inuhognnj. The lamps, trimmings and
lint racks iire all slher plated
The car will contain eight tables and
thiity-two leather upholstered chairs
An impioement of gieat adantage Is
the placing of frlctlonless side bear
ings nnd lmproed I'leneh ellptlc
springs. These Mr Canfleld has been
assured by the manufacturers will af
ford the greatest comfort to tho pa
trons. They state that it matters not
nt what rate of speed the train is mov
ing the car will not leeolve the slight
est Jar.
Williams & MeAmiltv, of this city,
had the contnict for the carpets and
diapeiles, nhlih woie cut and made
b their fveo Their woik was com
plimented csterday by the local olll
cials of the load who inspected the
ar. Hill & Connell furnished the
tables and chairs for the car. Mr.
Canfleld, Oeneial Foreman Smith and
Master Painter Miller are extiemely
pleused with the result of their effoits
In turning out this car.
Caterer William Hanle. who has the
contiact with the Lackawanna com
pany for their cafe cars, Is highly de
lighted and proud of this car. It Is
expected that It will be put into ser
vice Monday. Three other cafe cars
vv 111 be sent to the shops shortly to be
remodelled in accordance with the new
plans of Mr. Canfleld.
Exports Are Falling Off.
The falling off of exports of lion and
steel foi June, 1S99, founs a remark
able chapter in our commercial his
tory soys tho Amcilcan Manufactuier
nnd Iron World. The sole reason as
Blgned is that the domestic demand
was too great and material could not
be spaicd for foreign shipment. Many
good orders; have been turned down
by manufacturers for export, but a
largo percentage of oiders for fututo
delivery will bo taken care of
The export of steel fell off from 43,
IGI tons at a value of $S72,C64 in June,
1S0S, to 19.50G tons, value $420,401, In
June, IS99. Billets, ingots and blooms
fell off from 4,140 tons, value $78, ECO,
to 1,736 tons, vnluo $44,S2C. for the same
period. There were some increases
in exports, however, notably bteel
heets. which Increased from 3.0)3,071
pounds, value $10,312, to S."S1,2.2
pounds, valuo $123 04S. Tin and teine

Increase, ranging from 2.270 pounds,

"The Imports of lion ore for June, ISltS,
Is compared with tho same month this
J car, show an inciease fiom 250 tons
to 43,702 tons, and fiom J1.0C3 to $73,100
in value. Imports of bar Iron in
i cased from 4,U7,5C0 pounds to 1.230,

Materials show an Increase In Impoito,
notably tin plate, from 82,33,504 pounds.
Value $lt:t,559 to 10,309,44.' pounds, value

"These unsuccessful combats servo
to weaken the power of the autocrat
of the labor union, and In so much
they are a benefit to labor, while the

THE MUFF IN HISTORY.
Trom tho Ccmopl1ltr.n.
In many sixteenth century portraits
one sees wound around the wilst of a
noble dame a piece of rich, soft fur,
which was used to cover the neck or
to fulfill the functions of a muff. To
this Id often attached some little fan
tasy, an animal's head, a skull, per
haps ilevtrly w. ought and adorned
with precious stones '
Like many another article of dress,
the muff was at (list the exclusive
pmpertv of tho nobility, but when It
appeared In Venice It was can led by
courtesans as well as by women of tho
highest tank Tho llrsl Venetian muffs
Wire ver: small, made of a single
jibe' of velvet, brocade or silk, lined
witli fur, the openings fastening with
cviiulslte buttons of gold nnd silver en
riched with pieclous stones.
By 1002 the muff seems to have been
recognized as n neiessary adjunct of
the wnrdtobe of a lady of fashion. In
Evelyn's "Mundus Mullebrls," written
at this time, numbeis of gowns, "bod
dlces," shoe buckles, of perfumed
gloves, "Jonquil, tube lose, franglpan,
oiange, violet, naiclssus, Jessamin, am
brett, and some of chicken skin for
night to keep her hands plump, soft
and white," nre enumeiated, and also
"threo muffs of ermine, sable, ray " It
will be noticed that inv lady has no
black muff. Many years before Charles
IX, "Ddgety Klllpov" as he was called,
regulated the costumes of tho classes
the bouigeolse to use black muffs, and
only the woman of rank to cany those
of '. ailous colors.
At the time of tho natlor.nl conven
tion In Paris the muffs were largo and
flat, fantastic as wcio all the fashions
of that time. In colonial dajs In Amer
ica they vvcie also very large, but
round. ,
About 1J10 the muffH wero principally
of chinchilla, of moderate size, and
were often used with what would seem
to us an lucongiuous combination of
stiaw bonnets and thin slippers.
In an old "Dictloifalre Amoureux"
the muff Is defined ub "a letter box
lined with white satin."
