STEEL TRADE DRIFTS INTO
NEW YEAR VERY QUIETLY
December Buying Liberal in Compar
ison With Previous Month —Mill
Operations This Week Show Better
Schedules Than Those of Holidays
New York, Jan. B. 'The Iron Age"
says the steel trade has drifted quietly
into the new year. December buying
in bars, plates and shapes was liberal
in comparison with November and the
advance to I.loc. Pittsburgh which all
important producers announced, to be
effective January 1, led to a fair
amount of covering at lower figures.
Mill operations this week have nat
urally shown rather better schedules
than those of the holidays, but the in
crease is not pronounced.
Actual and prospective buying by
the railroads has had a good deal of
publicity, particularly as to rails. A
40,000-ton order has been placed by
the Louisville & Nashville with the
Tennessee Company. The Pere Mar
quette has bought 10,000 tons and the
Reading has placed some business, in
cluding 2,500 tons at Pittsburgh. The
Pennsylvania order is expected to be
placed soon and the New York Central
is making up its requirements.
Much has been made in current news
of the ifew rail contracts thus far
placed, but 170,000 tons was bought by
two lines at the opening of 1914.
The Pere Marquette order has been
widely advertised as going to a Ca
nadian mill. Its tariff phase is inter
esting, since $25 at mill, or $26.50 at
lower lake port, was charged for the
rails to be delivered in the United
States, while S3O was the mill price on
the Canadian part of the order. Can
ada's rail tariff is $7. Another Central
Western road, which earlier in the year
had a low price from the Ontario mill,
but did not buy there, is understood
again to have Canadian prices below
those of domestic rail mills.
The report of a purchase of 10,000
tons of Canadian mils by an eastern
road lacks definite confirmation.
Probably 250,000 tons of rails are
now under consideration, as against
300,000 tons referred to in the same
way in the market reports of the first
week of 1914.
Some good spike contracts have been
closed at 'Pittsburgh, including 20,000
kegs for the Pennsylvania Lines West
and 10,000 kegs for the B. & O. Two
1.000-car inquiries have come up in the
Middle West. These cars were condi
tionally placed some months ago, but
could not be financed.
More activity in new structural work
is reported in districts apart from the
East and fabricators look for some im
provement. The Pennsylvania railroad
is taking bids on a part of its bridge
steel requirement* for 1915.
The Steel Corporation's new orders
in December averaged close to 30,000
tons a day, figuring in tin plate and
other long time contracts. Its ship
ments were well unier that figure, so
that a vgrv considerable increase in un
filled orders will be reported.
Pig iron production in December was
1,515,752 tons, or 48,896 tons a day.
as compared with 1,518,316 tons in No
vember, or 50,611 tons a day. On
January 1, with 147 furnaces in 'blast,
the active capacity was 48,848 tons a
day, against 4 8,464 tons a day for
the same number of furnaces on Decem
ber 1. Six furnaces blew in and six
furnaces blew out in the month.
The production of coke and anthra
cite pig iron in the second half of 1914
was 10,647,737 gross tons. In the
first half the production of all kinds,of
pig iron was 12,536,094 tons. Esti
mating charcoal iron in the second half
at 115,000 tons, the total for the year
is about 23,300,000 tons, as against
30,966,000 tons in 1913 and 29,727,-
000 tons in 1912.

"CIDER KING" IS SHOT
Wealthy Farmer Believed Victim of
Black Hand Ambush for Enemy
Tuckahoe, X. Y., Jan. S.—lt is more
than two weeks ago since Charles J. j
Seacord, known as the "cider king" of >
Tnckahoe, was murdered while driving
along the mill road toward his farm
house and yet the authorities have been
unable to find a single clue whicth would
lead to the arrest of the assassin.
It is now generally believed that
Seaeord, who was a wealthy farmer,
was shot in mistake by a Bl'cck Hand
bandit who was gunning for an enemy.
It became known that PaMjuiale Piet
rosi, a watchman on the'road construc
tion work near Union Corners, was fired
upon the other night while ou his way
home. The watchman replied by firing
two shots and then hurried to police
headquarters and gave the alarm.
KEEP OUT. CUPID
Or This Hospital May Have to Close

, Sunbury, Pa., Jan. 8. Dan Cupid

To date seven have joined the ranks
of matrimony in the year just closed,

DIDN'T TAKE THE HOLE
But That Was Probably Because the
Court Said They Shouldn't
An amusing instance of legia! sharp
practice is set forth in the annals of
Westerly, R. I. It occurred a hundred
years ago, when, it seems lawyers were
quite as adroit at quibbling as certain
of their successors are to-day.
A farmer of broken fortunes hired
for cultivation a piece otf land, agree
ing to pay for the use thereof with a
certain proportion of the crop. Ho
planted potatoes and had an unusual
degree of success. Being witthout a
storeroom, he obtained the consent of
a neighboring landholder and deposited
his jhare of the potatoes in What farm
ers call a potato hole —'that is, an ex
cavation in the earth in which the po
tatoes are placed and covered with
earth and straw in the form of a pyra
mid.
Shortly afterward he had occasion to
go to Connecticut, and one of his cred
itors seized Che opportunity to attach
the potato hole.
Upon this another creditor bestirred
himself and consulted 1 a lawyer as to
what could be done to secure his claim.
The attorney was equal to the occasion.
He secured the issuing of a second
writ, by which an attachment was lev
ied upon the potatoes in the potato
hole, the documents specific illy setting
forth that the potato hole should be loft
upon the land where it was found.
Tlie warrant was promptly served,
and when the first creditor aippearal
upon the scene he found the potato
hole, "but not the potatoes.—Case and
Comment.

PUT STOMACH IN
FINE CONDITION
Says Indigestion Results From An
Excess of Hydrochloric
Add
Undigested food delayed in the
stoiriach decays, or rather, ferments the
same as food left in the open air, says
a anted authority. He aißo tells us that
Indigestion is caused by Hyper-acidity,
meaning, there is an excess of hydro
chloric acid in the stomach which pre
vents complete digestion and starts food
fermentation. Thus everything eaten
Bours in the stomach much like garbage
sonrs in a can, forming acrid fluids and
gnses which inflate the stomach like a
toy balloon. Then we feel a heavy,
lumpy misery in the chest, we belch up
gM, we eructate sour food or have
heartburn, flatulence, water-brash or
nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and take
a tablespoonful in a glass of water be
fore breakfast and drink while it is
effervescing and furthermore, to con
tinue this for a week. While relief fol
lows the first dose, it is Important to
neutralize the acidity, remove the gas
making mass, start the liver, stimulate
the kidneys and thus promote a free
flow of pure digestive juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made
from the acid of granes and lemon
.juice, combined with lithia and sodium
phosphate. This harmless salts is used
by thousands of people for stomach
trouble with excellent results.—Adv.
GEORGIA BLOODHOUNDS
Keen Scent Enables Them to Perform
Almost Incredible Feats
Whwt the Georgia bloodhound can do
seems aJnrost incredible. A convict
sleeping in one bunk of a hundred,
shod ami clad precisely as the hundred
convicts about him, may 6>lip his chain
and flee. Ten miles away he may
meet his fedlow prisoners again, miay
run t« and from among them or walk
with them a mile and leave them.
Six hours after these bounds, put on
his track where he slipped the camp,
will follow him to where he met his
gang, will tread his track in and about
with hundreds of tracks, take it up
where he leaves them and run him
down though he cross convict gangs
every mile he runs.
This escaping convict, clad in stripes
cut from the same bolt with a hundred
others, may run through the woods,
touching weeds and bushes as he runs:
Fifty other convicts may run through
the same woods in every direction.
The dogs will hold his scent, running
full tilt, breast high. If he makes a
curve of forty-five degrees the dogs
will not run the line, but will catch his
scent thirty yards away and across the
angle, though it were filled with the
convicts who had eaten and slept with
the fugitive.
Often a dog will carry a scent in a
gaiiop, running parallel thirty yards to
| the windward. An uncanny and terri
| ble little beast is the red bone hound,
I trained for the hunting of man.—Phila

A PAINTEBS' PARADISE
Capri'B Quaint Inn, Where Poor Artists
Can Get Free Board
Capri, beautiful in itself, offers an
irresistible invitation to artists, since it
has au inn where any one, by painting
a picture 011 file wall , can get free
board.
To the lovely island of Capri, with
its perennial summer, its "blue grotto
and its lemon groves, came some fifty
years ago a ruined artist. He opened
sn inn and died rich. In his will, leav
ing the inn to his heirs, he made these
conditions:
" The charge per day, two bottles of
red Capri wine included, is never to be
more than 6 francs.
"If any artist is too poor to pay
he shall paint a picture upon some wall
space, receiving all the accommodation
accorded to those paying the 'highest
price.
"If any German artist shall come to
the inn he shall be accommodated and
shall receive the amount of his fare to
Germany upon his promising never to
return to Italy."
The inn is conducted to-day on these
conditions. Its walls are covered with
paintings. Now and then a German
artist gets his fare home.—Cincinnati

SAVED BY A WAGER
Doomed by the Surgeons, Hay Bet He
Would Live, and He Did
When Colonel Hay, notorious for his
love of gambling and betting, was se
verely wounded in the Peninsular -war
two brother officers came across luia
apparently lifeless body.
"Poor Hay! He's gone at last,'' said
one named Winsor.
A faint voice came from the ground,
"I'll lay you a hundred he's not." His
death seemed only a question of min
utes, but he continued', "Enter the bet,
and you, \larston " —addressing the
other officer—"be witness. - '
He then fainted. When he was tak
en to the hospital the surgeon told him
the bullet, could only 'be removed by
sawing through two ribs and introduc
ing a child's hand to extract it, as
forceps could not touch it. "The
chances are," he add'ad, "that you will
die under the operation."
"If Winvor will make his bet double
or quits I'll consent," said the colonel.
Winsor agreed.
"Now saw away," said Hay. "I
won't die,' And he did not.
"But for that bet," he said after
ward, "I shouM be a dead man. It
was inv determination to win it that

JUDGE UNMOVED BY PITY
Sends a Son of Warm Friends to Pris

Springfield, 111., Jan. 8. —Judge Keme
saw M. Landis, sitting in the Federal
court 'here yesterday, sentenced the son
of a family -with""" which he had been
long on warm terms of friendship, to
eighteen months at hard labor in the
Fort Leavenworth penitentiary. The
prisoner was Kalph V. Mekerman,
m-rmlber of a -wealthy and prominent
Illinois family, and former cashier of
the Springfield postoffice. He had
pleaded guilty of rifling letters.
Judge Landis took the case to relieve
Federal Judge Humphrey, who recom
mended Diekerman for his post-office ap
pointment. Major Buford Wilson, pres
ident of the Chicago, Peoria and St.
liouis railroad, Dickerman *s father-in
law, and W. A. 'Noart'lecutt, former
United States District Attorney there,
were among those who 'pleaded for a
modification of the charge to one of
misdemeanor, that Dickerman might be
spared a penitentiary sentence.
"1 am a personal friend of the Dick
erman family and value this friends/hip
highly," asserted Judge ban-ilis in pro
nouncing sentence. "But 'were I to let
this enter into the consideration oif the
