?rtaps and -Jut*. ? The August production of pig Iron In the United States was 90,000 tons below the average, and this at a time when the demand is greater than ever known before. The short production is the result of insufficient supplies of coal. The railroads are unable to supply cars sufficient to transport the coal to the coking ovens rapidly enough to supply the ever growing demand for ooke. Coke is an absolute necessity in the production of steel. Most of the rail making plants of the- Pittsburg district and also the western and southern rail mills have sold their products far in advance, some of them having sold their output up to the end of 1907. The demand for steel rails is but an index for the demand of bar Iron, billets, plates, structural iron and sheets. Bar iron has gone up $2 a ton within the past few days. ? During the past three or four weeks several steamships have run aground in different parts of the Pacific ocean, notably the army transport Sheridan, and the transPacific steamship Manchuria, and later the Mongolia, which went aground on the Midway islands a few days ago. It is now believed that these mishaps are due to considerable changes that have taken place in the currents of the Pacific as the result of earthquakes in midocean. The Kobe, Japan, observatory reported a terrific earthquake as having taken place in the midPacific several hours previous to the earthquake which destroyed Valparaiso, and it is to this event that the changed Pacific currents are ascribed, with the result that navigators being unacquainted with the new currents are unable to keep off shoals, etc. ? Hong Kong. China, was visited a m n?? tprriflf hurricane last Tuesday, which resulted in great loss of life and not less than a million dollars in damage. The hurricane struck the Hong Kong water front about 10 o'clock in the morning, and raged with great fury for about two hours, and then subsided as suddenly as it had come. The harbor was filled with foreign craft, which was all more or less damaged, many of the vessels being total wrecks. The vessels which were not sunk at their anchorages were hurled up into the streets of the city and pounded to pieces in many instances. Scores of native junks and ferryboats were sunk In Pearl river. While it is impossible to give accurate figures as to the ^ - total loss of life, it is certain that the - death roll will go well up into the hundreds. The damage to the city itself was tremendous, and as a result all business is at a complete standstill. ? Mayor Dunne of Chicago, is about to be successful in his efforts to acquire possession of tfoe street car systems of that city. It will be remembered that Mayor Dunne was elected on a municipal ownership of the street car systems platform. csince nis eiecnon w hub wxii i?u6in at every turn he has taken. The legislature of Illinois authorized the city of Chicago to issue bonds to the amount of $75.000,000 which was to be used for the purpose of paying for the traction lines. The validity of these bonds or certificates was attacked in the courts and last week Judge Windes decided in their favor, at the same time sustaining the mayor in all of his contentions. The various traction companies have submitted figures at which they are willing to sell out. The aggregate of the figures is something like $72,000,090. Mayor Dunne and the board of aldermen having the matter in charge, claim that these figures are too high. They figure that the entire street car service of Chicago can be duplicated anew for $70,000,000 or less. ? Senator Bacon of Qeorgla, discussing the government ownership of railroads, as proposed by Mr. Bryan, said in an interview in WashInrtnn a fpw dnva ajro: "In its nrao tlcal operations it would be the most extreme and radical measure of paternalistic socialism. I can think of a score of strong and sufficient reasons against it, and scarcely a good reason for it?certainly not one that is not counter-balanced in tenfold degree by the evils which it would entail. It would be impracticable for the government to maintain and operate 220,000 miles of railroads economically and honestly and build the new lines that would be required as well. It would present the most inviting and unlimited field for graft and thievery the world ever saw. The fact that the postofflce department is successfully run by the government is no evidence to the contrary of this. The railroad business of the United States is, in its magnitude, scope, Intricacies and difficulties 100 < ?Kot nt th^ nnal. office department." Senator Bacon believes that "government ownership would constitute a political machine the reach and resistless power of which cannot be realized." ? One of the most amazing cases of thievery from the United States government, on record, was unearthed at the Philadelphia mint recently, and as a result Thomas W. Hurff, for twelve years assistant weigher at the mint was arrested on Monday last. According to the secret service men. Hurfl's alleged falsifying of the scales has enabled him to steal $18 worth of gold every day. It is claimed that Hurff has been working his scheme for six months. The testimony of the secret service men goes to show that there are five or six "melds" of gold, of 6,000 ounces, each day. and the weighing of this gold, which is being used in the coinage of Mexican coins, valued at $3 a piece, has been a part of Hurff's duty. The system by which it is alleged that Hurff defrauded the government was a simple one. A copper planchette, or unstamped penny, was either fastened on the bottom or laid in the pan of the scale in which the gold is weighed. One of these planchettes weighed 11-100 of an ounce, which is the exact weight of the $3 Mexican gold pieces. Consequently at each weighing the government lost $3 In gold, and, figuring on six "weights" a day, the loss per day was $18. Under the law the weigher is allowed 10-100 of an ounce shortage in weight, for wear, on each 6,000 ounces of gold. ? Charleston, S. C., September 18: The Clyde steamship New York, from New York. arrived in port twenty-four hours overdue this afternoon, having encountered a hurricane off Frying Pan shoal^ and later having stopped to rescue four m a rlnor* who were elinerinBT to wreckage In that vicinity. The shipwrecked men were Chief Mate Gardiner F. Goold, Caleb Herring, cook, and Frank Harrington and Manuel Crabtree, sailors of the schooner R. D. Bibber. The men were clinging to pieces of wreckage nearly exhausted, having been in the water several hours. On board the New YoTk. Mate Qoold told of the voyage of the schooner Bibber, Capt. Sayres, beginning at Savannah, September 9, when the vessel cleared with a cargo of lumber for New York. The weather was bad from the 12th and on the night of September 16 it was found that' the schooner was leaking. The storm was upon them and the lashing of the deck load * -J lnmRo?i iront Qilrift par if u ctuu me luiiiun The port main rigging was carried away and a little later the vessel turned turtle, casting the crew into the sea. A sailor named Manuel had been lost before this, and there were remaining five men. The captain and a sailor named Anthony taught a spar and Mate Goold and three others clung to a piece of the deck. For hours the New York searched for Capt. Sayres and the man but they had disappeared. The rescue was made at the height of the storm and showed skill and courage on the part of Capt. Staples. ? A Rock Island railroad passenger train, known as the Texas, Kansas City and Chicago express, went down with the bridge over Cimarron river near Dover, Okla., Tuesday morning, and as a result not less than twenty persons lost their lives. The train consisting of an engine, two baggage cars, three chair cars and a Pullman sleeper all went Into the river except the Pullman sleeper. Of all the passengers on the train, only one Is known to have escaped. His name is Clyde Geist. In relating the experience he said: "I Van slttlfig- in the front compartment of the smoker, In readiness to get off the train at Dover. . The only other person in that part of the car was the negro porter. There were, perhaps, seven or eight men In the other compartments. Immediately after the engine passed into the bridge I was aroused by three short shrieks of the whistle. I felt the train sinking beneath me, but easily and without lurching. I ran to the front door, but by the time I reached it the train was in the river and water was about my knees. The depth of the water possibly was about twenty feet where the bridge broke. To save myself ,1 began to scramble to climb on top of the smoking car. The porter was ahead of me. I had great difficulty in lifting myself from the water, and asked the porter, who uns nn the roof, to take my hand and give me a lift. He answered that he ( had to look out for himself, and did < not aid me. That was the last I ( heard him say. A few seconds later ] he was swept into the river and car- , rled away." The river was terribly , swollen as a result of cloudbursts further up-stream. ?hr ||orkrilIr (Enquirer. ! TORKVILLE, S. C.i FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1906. J Now they have Senator Bailey of ( Texas, in an embarrassing situation. One Gruet is suing Henry Clay Pierce, < president of the Waters-Pierce Oil ! company, for back pay due for alleged j service to that concern. During the I trial of the case last week. Pierce tes- 1 titled that Senator Bailey had rendered , valuable services to the company in 1900, in securing for it a license to do business in the state of Texas after its license had been forfeited. He said that at that time he had placed $13,000,000 worth of securities in the hands of Mr. Bailey to handle as that gentleman saw proper. Immediately after the publication of this testimony there appeared an alleged interview with Roger C. Sullivan, national committeeman from Illinois, in which Mr. Sullivan was quoted as saying that if Mr. Bryan would be consistent in his policy of demanding the scalps of Democratic leaders who have trust connections he must also get after Mr. Bailey, the leader of the Democratic party in Washington. Mr. Bailey got after Mr. Sullivan in a red hot interview, and Mr. Sullivan came back with the explanation that he had not said a word; that the published Interview with him had been faked out of the whole cloth. However, there seems to be no doubt of the fact that Mr. Bailey is pretty badly tangled with the Standard Oil company, and he has been doing things that do not seem to be entirely in keeping with his responsibility to the people of Texas. That Cuba will soon become a part jr the united states euner as a suiic j or on a basis similar to that now occupied by Porto Rico and the Philippines is practically certain. There has ? never been much reason to doubt this j proposition. Of course, it would have ? looked bad for this country to have J announced originally the acquisition of . Cuba as the purpose of its war with e Spain. That was really not the pur- 8 pose of that war. It was clear then, j however, that there could be no other f result. Developments in Cuba have v only been what reasonably well in- J formed people have been looking for. j When Americans began to Invest large T sums of money in Cuba everybody 1 should have known that that money ? was going to be protected. Every- c body knew that those Americans were not going to be satisfied with any such J government as the Cubans were capable of giving them. It will be remem- \ bered that from the close of the Spanish war it was understood that the Isle : of Pines off the southern coast of Cuba was to become American territory, c General Wood so regarded the island. J Americans invested there and conducted themselves in such a manner as li to arouse the natives to considerable antagonism. Cuba asserted her au- ' thority. The Washington government <3 seemingly repudiated the claims of the t Americans; but that was to avoid do- '' ing peacemeal what could Just as eas- a ily be done all at once. While Taft is C In Cuba smoothing things over with 1 Palma, the war department is getting H its forces in shape to handle the situa- v tion. It will not be a great while un- s til things are brought to a focus, and the United States will take entire charge. If the tariff problems cannot e be arranged in a satisfactory manner { lawfully it will be arranged arbltra- v rily as was done In the case of Porto 1 Rico. But already Cuba Is as practically the same as American territory. * And really that Is the best way to j handle the situation. Those Cubans t are not fit to govern themselves, much r less anybody else. | Unfortunate FV>r Manning.?It would have been far better for Richard I. Manning had he never entered the second primary. Certain defeat stared him In the face, and lb tljelr desperation his supporters did a lo| of dirty political work. Mr. Manning has heretofore been looked on as an e*oeptlonally clean, high-toned man. and while we do not blame him personally for all that was done, he cannot escape responsibility for some of it. He should have repudiated the workers who were guilty of questionable acts in his behalf. Then, too, Mr. Manning in the various statements to which his ' name was attached, was not fair to Ansel, and his insinuation as to the negro vote cannot be excused. One of r the hardest political tights we were * ever engaged in was in Sumter some t years ago, when we personally sup- I ported Mr. Manning in his race for the t state senate against the late Altamont t Moses. We do not regret our action t then; we have no regrets for our ( course in this campaign, but we would r have thought a great deal more of Mr. > Manning had his campaign in the sec- i ond primary been conducted different- t ly.?Bamberg Herald. < t MERE-MENTION.

On the contrary there is lots of cotton going from the gins to the warehouses. Those old cars on the Marion and Kingville division of the Southern are pretty tough. The travel Is heavy enough to warrant much better service. It was with considerable difficulty that about two-thirds of the people of the county were aroused to take an interest in politics this year, and most of them have dropped the subject to give their undivided attention to business. Mr. R. T. Castles of Smyrna, who recently advertised a flock of sheep for sale, writes that he had no trouble in disposing of what he had at the price he wanted, and that he could have easily sold one hundred more. He Is now going to give his attention to cattle raising. We have sympathy for Idlers who are the result of hard times, but no sympathy for Idlers who are the result of easy times. There are lots of ?aw tnn ma rtv fnr th#? COOd Of the community and something.should ' be done to make them work or mov.e on. Perhaps some good could be accomplished by the organization of good roads clubs in the various townships, one or more clubs in each township. The matter of township bonds for road building purposes and other kindred subjects could be discussed with profit. This has been the year for harvesting corn according to modern methods. Lots of people attempted to pull fodder and lost their labor and fodder too. Had the country been provided with shredders, much roughness that has been lost could have been saved, Our people have not yet been disposed to take on to the corn shredding idea; but nevertheless, it is the right thing, There is nothing to be said good of fodder pulling in comparison. i j Because of the unusual demand jpon our advertising space, we are unable to give as much reading matter as we like to give and which we are accustomed to give. It Is a fact that we are j very reluctant to yield up so much space for advertising; but at the name time we do not feel warranted in de Inying the demands of legitimate busi-1 ness. There Is no reason to suppose, however, that this pressure on our col- j umns will be of long duration. Otherwise, we shall proceed to take speedy steps to accommodate ourselves to the new situation.

Washington special of September 17, to Charleston Post: Many people In South Carolina will be glad to learn that Assistant Paymaster B. M.

Glacier, the ship that towed the Dewey thousands of miles to her destination. The Glacier is now coming to the United States from the Asiatic station, and is at present making her way through the Mediterranean after her memorable trip with the Dewey. She is bringing home a cargo if teak, which will be delivered at the New York navy yard, after which she will go to Boston for a thorough overhauling. When the Glacier left Sparrows' Point In Chesapeake Bay, lajit winter for her trip of thousands of miles through the Suez canal for Muni la and Olongapo, there were few persons around the navy department who thought that the voyage would end with anything but destruction for the Dewey and probably for the Glacier. The lives of those on board her were many times despaired of, but she Anally reached her port all right after a rough and dangerous trip. After Paymaster Dobson reaches the United States he will be granted a short leave if absence and he will no doubt be able to tell the people at home wonderful stories of the Far East.

All the local dry goods people are making extensive preparations for the fall trade, and the outlook is that Yorkville, already the best dry goods market in the upper part of the state, will be still better this fall than heretofore. It used to be a common thing to hear people say that they could not get as good goods here as in some of the surrounding markets; but now it is pretty generally conceded that Yorkville compares favorably with any of her competitors, including Charlotte. ? The regular fall examination of applicants for certificates to teach in the public schools is in progress in the court house this morning under the conduct of Superintendent L. W. Jenkins and Mr. T. E. McMackin. There are fifteen white and forty-eight colored candidates In attendance.

Fine Patch of Corn. Mr. Haskell O. Stanton of Bethel, was In Yorkvllle last Wednesday on business and In the course of a conversation with several gentlemen In the clerk's office, referred incidentally to a splendid patch of corn that has been raised by Dr. Thomas W. Campbell. long known as the best farmer In Bethel township. "I have not seen this natch," said Mr. Stanton; "but my understanding is that there are four and a quarter acres of It and the doctor estimates that the yield will be at the rate of one hundred bushels to the acre. The corn is of a prolific variety, the name of which I forget, and there are lots of stalks that have as many as four or five ears each. The doctor is estimating 150 ears to the bushel; and from what I understand he will probably get rather more than a hundred bushels to the acre." Mr. Stanton went on to say that Rev. W. B. Arrowood' has a fine patch of corn raised in accordance with the Williamson stunting method.- He spoke very highly of Mr. Arrowood as a farmer. ? Greenville special of September 19. to Charlotte Observer: In the court of general sessions at Anderson today the grand Jury returned a true bill for murder against R B. Hayes, the "Faith Cure" evangelist who recently allowed his child to suffer and die without attempting to give it medical relief. On account of his queer religious belter and preaching Hayes refused to allow a physician to see the child or to give it medicine to relieve suffering. The case has attracted widespread attention. The date of his trial has not been fixed. AT THE CHURCHS8. CHURCH OF THE GOOD SHEPHERD. rvv. j. o. babin. rvctor. Sunday Services.?Sunday school at l n m Nn nther services.
