In gratitude for benefits obtnlned It has
been a chorus of thanksgiving nnd appre

His Holiness the Pope, who, having used
Vln Mnrlanl, found It sustaining nnd
health giving. Not satlslled with merely
expressing thanks to Monsieur Mnrlanl,
as will be seen from the nboe letter, his
Holiness has been ideascd to graciously

MORE CONCENTRATION OF CON
STRUCTION WORK.
Lackawanna Railroad Company Is
Moving Its Kingston Paint Shops
to Scranton Photographing the
Beautiful Spots Along the Line of
the Lackawanna That New "Buf
falo Steel Plant New York Land
Bonrd Grants Its Projectors Fifty
Acres of Land Other Trade Items.
The Delawire, Luckawnnna and
Western company are carrylnp out the
pioposed arrangements for ooncentrat
in:r all of their shops In tills city, and
th latest movement was made yester
day when Mastei Car HuIIder Cnnfleld
anil Muster Painter Miller arranged
lor tho transfer to this city of the
palutshops now located at Kingston.
Thlity-thice men are employed in the
t-liop. According to this recent order
no move pafsenger ooachrs will be
painted ut Kingston. The work will
no doubt also affect n number of car
, penters whose pilucipal work is on tho
j.-atfonfjer coaches.
Lackawanna Scenery.
The Lackawanna railroad has a vast
amount of charming: sceneiy nlong its
lines and this Is now being photograph
ed for advertising purposes !j the cele
brated pliotogruphei, W. II. Jackson,
and his assistant. L. J fidson. The
pictures win be made by the Detroit
Photographic company, which has the
pule right In America for making pho
tographs In colors of nntuie direct
irom the negative. A special car was
here ye-Heidiy, Mr. Jnckson. Mr. lid
son, l.acknuanun Advei Using Agent
W. R. Hunter and Donald J. McDonald
of Detroit being on board. Mr. Hunter
is an old Chicago newspaper man and
has been doing some great work for
the Lackawanna since he came to the
toad to take charge of Its advertising
business.
.Mr. McDonald, who is the represen
tative of tho Detroit Photographic
company, was In early life a member
of the ediloiial staff of the Detroit
.Free. Press and later business manager
of the Detroit Journal, going from
thero to the great clothing and gentle
men's furnish goods establishment of
C, II,. Mablry &. Co , ai advertising
manager, where he made n great repu
tation as an advertising Svrlter and
man (of Ideas; he designed and wrote
"Uds" that pulled trade, and so succes
cars of the G. M. type, for use on tho
company's westerr lines. The order
for these cars was divided between the
American Car and Foundry company
nnd the Pulman Palace car company,
and they are to be ready for delivery
within four months.
Besides this lurjje order the company
propose to build all the cars possible
at its Altoona shops. It is not Intended
to Increase the present force at those
hhops, but as much of the car repair
work as possible will be concentrated
at the company's shops In Philadelphia.
Harrlsburg and other points, so as to
relieve as much as possible the shops
at Altoona of repair work.
The Financial Situation nu Viewed
by Dun & Co. No Precedent for
Volume of Demand.
New York, Oct. 27. R. O. Dun & Co.'s
Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will
cay:
Fears and not facts made a war In
South Africa seem a menace to pros
perity here, and a week of conflict has
cleared away the fear. British markets
for securities have been helped by the
belief that mining shares would be
worth more with' no Boer control In
mining regions anil large purchases
here of ammunition, "packed meats and
other army food have swelled the bal
ance duo this country. Money markets
have grown most embarrassing, .stocks
have gradually advanced: Industries
are still supported by a volume of de
mand for which no precedent can be
found,' nnd payments through the prin
cipal clearing houses for the past week
have been Sfl.G per cent, larger than last
year and G7.G larger than In 1892. So
great an Increase shows the net result
of many and potent forces making for
public prosperity.
The heaviest transactions In steel
rails ever made so early cover l.GOO.OOO
tons for next year's delivery, or two
thirds of the entire annual capacity of
the works. The Pennsylvania Is said
to have taken 105,000 tons at J3.1. but all
the leading railroads made large pur
chases, and the price was then ad
vanced to $3.' per ton, the same works
having delivered during the past year
at $18 to $19. Great contracts for ma
terial followed, one concern having
bought 100,000 tons Bessemer pig at
Pittsburg for $23, while $24.50 Is pa'd
for early deliveries and BO.OOO tons bil
lets were sold to one concern there nnd
30,000 at Wheeling, $3S.r0 being quoted,
with slabs at $39.D0 and sheet bars at
$38. Such transactions only show tho
general belief that high prices will run
far Into next year. For structural
work many orders appear, Including
some of consequence for the east and
for Cuba, and in bars the car and Im
plement demand makes the Chicago
market very strong, but nt iPlttsburg
works anxiety for future contracts has
depressed the price to $2.15, and In
plates some works have nearly caught
up with contracts and are accepting
$2.75, Sheets are also weaker, $3.05 be
ing quoted at Pittsburg, as the com
binations seem to have failed.
Coke holds strong, shortness of cars
and deliveries, though more ovens than
ever before are producing.
Wools sales have been heavy at Bos
ton. Many mills are now buying which
have recently started after long Idle
ness. The advance In cotton goods con
tinues heavy.
Wheat remains practically un
changed, while Atlantic exports, flour
included, have been 12.932.S41 bushels
In four weeks against 13,4S3,0."f! last
year, and Pacific exports 2,197,771
against 3,124.306 last year. Western re
ceipts fall short and In four weeks have
been only 30,022,053 bushels against 40,
150,(199 last year. Corn exports continue
to show the magnitude of foreign de
mand for breadstuff, reachlns 14,478,
719 bushels against 8,540,973 last year,
and the demand has been large enough
to advance the price l'i per cent.
Failures for the week have been) 190
in the I'nlted States against 226 last
year, nnd 23 In Canada against 24 last
year.
troducod Into the arid southwestern
states. It Is believed that they will
grow and flourish In the sandy desert
lands of Arizona or New Mexico, pro
viding some means of Insuring a sup
ply of wnter Is devised. The ulstachc
nut, which Is a favorite flavoring for
Ice cream, has hitherto been entirely
Imported. In Mediterranean regions
It Is an article of food, nnd Is consid
ered much finer than either almonds
or walnuts. This nut Is to be domes
ticated In certain suitable resrlons of
this country. The choice varieties nro
obtained by grafting, and arrange
ments have been inado to secure, a
supply from Athens next spring. A
largo ever-bearing strawberry, which
will produce fruit for months on the
same plant, Is to be brought from
France. Other varieties expected are
different kinds of llgs, forage ulants,
English grapes and artichokes, Smyrna
muskmelnns and a number of new
vegetables. Among the latter Is the
crosne, stnehys, Introduced Into France
from Japan within recent years. An
other vegetable Is an nsimragus very
much liner In quality nnd flavor than
our regular garden article. The new
artichoke Is described ns a perennial
plant, propagated by suckers and not
to be raised from seed. It Is exuec.ted
to be remunerative to growers In the
southern states, und to be ns nonn
lar with all classes of people us It Is
In Europe.

Developing Motive Power.'
In a recent address George II. Dan
iels, general passenger agent of the
New York Central, tald. "Less than a
quarter of a century ago, upon the
average American railroad, the .capa
city of a freight car was twenty thous
and pounds; the capacity of a freight
engine vus irom twenty to thlity of
such ears to the train. Today, en the
New York Central, whose six tracks
run alongside the Erie Canal for the
entire distance from Buffalo to Albany
the capacity of the grain cars Is from
sixty to sixty-six thousand pounds, ami
ii locomotive of the latset type will
haul fiom seventy-five to ninety such
oars loaded to their full capacity. It
is not ati Infrequent occurrence for
a single nglne to haul through the
Mohawk valley, beside the Etle Canal
c.'.OOO to yO.tiOO bushels of grain In a
single train. The same engine will
haul from 110 to 125 empty cats. When
you consider that In the busy season
there ate fiom V.I to 100 such trains a
day passing over the New York Cen
tral alone, ou will get some concep
tion of the t-ltuatlon."

ACCLIMATING FOREIGN PLANTS
Valuable Work Being Done by the
Agricultural Department.
The department of agriculture Is
doing valuuble work In the collection
anel distribution of rare and useful
seeds, bulbs, plants and trees from
foreign countries for experiment with
reference to their introduction Into
this country. One most important ma
terial to be brought from Europe Is
a supply of Hungarian wheat. This
varletj has proved to, be of the best
quality of hard winter wheat, superior
to any grown in Russia or America.
It Is expected to be a great success In
the Middle Western states, though
not In the cold climate of the extreme
northwest. Date palms are to be In-
