The Senator was asked by news- paper men today for a peep at the letter of Tom Watson, but he said if the letter is ever made public it will have to be done by Mr. Watson himself. Many populists have been expecting to hear from Mr. Watson since the result was announced. ‘They have looked for him to put the blame of Bryan's defeat upon the populist com- mittee, but the Georgia statesman has not opened his mouth so far. If he should do so some of the histesy of this campaign will be made public. It will be interesting Teading, too. Senator Butler is expected to issue a formal statement to the populists of the country In a few days, giving his ideas of defeat of Bryan and his views of the future and what his party should do. ce A Receiver to Be Appointed. ‘The controller of the currency has de- cided to put the affairs of the Marine Na- tional Bank of Duluth, Minn., in the hands of a receiver. ae ee ge ee Assixtanmt District Attorney Appointed Edward T.

MILLS START AGAIN Industry Feels the Effect of Re-Eatab- lished Confidence, TE 15 NOT CONFINED 70 ANY SECTION President-Elect McKinley Presses a Button at Canton. GOOD TIMES IN PROSPECT eed At exactly 3:30 o’clock yesterday after- noon President-elect McKinley touched an electric button at Canton, Ohio, which lighted a fire in furnace B at the works of the Tonawanda, N. Y., Iron and Steel Company. The lighting af the furnace means work for 450 men. The furnace which was blown yesterday has a daily ca- pacity of 250 gross tons of foundry iron. It is operated by the largest blowing en- gine ever built. The engine is over 40 feet in height and weighs 385 tons. The manner of igniting the fires was unique. Electric wires were strung around the furnace, and at each of the seven cpen- ings an incandescent lamp was placed, with @ portion of the glass removed. Powder was poured around the films, and above this was suspended cotton waste, saturated with oil, which ignited ten cords of wood and several hundred tons of coke inside the furnace. When the button was touched at Canton it completed an electric circuit at the furnace, the incandescent lamp films ignited the powder, which in turn ignited the cotton waste. There was no hitch in the working of the long-distance match. Tonawanda celebrated :he event with an immense procession of Its citizens, aug- mented by a special train from Buffalo and a number of bands. The town was illumi- nated last night brilliantly in honor of the occasion. There are many indications at Buffalo of a revival of business. The nut and bolt works of Plum, Burdict & Barnard, which have been running for months with but a handful of men, started up yesterday with a force of nearly 300. Mr. Barnard said everything is looking so promising that he expects to have the full force of 450 men working soon. The Howard iron works, employing 2) men, which have been working on half time all summer, started in yesterday on full time and with a full force. Mr. George Sandrock, president of the German-American Bank, said that the large sums of money which had been with- drawn from Buffalo banks some months ago and transferred to banks in Toronto and other Canadian cities had already be- gun to come back. Mercantile and manufacturing concerns at Syracuse are preparing for increased business. The jobbers have already started commercial travelers on the read. Large manufacturers of bicycles, farm imple- iments, iron products and typewriters have increased their forces and begun to fill orders contingent on McKinley's election. The estimate that 3,000 men now unem- ployed will be at work in ten days is con- servative. In New England. The Spalding & Pepper Manufacturing Company has started up its factory at Chicopee, Mass., after a few weeks’ shut- down, pending the results of the election. The company has a large number of orders ccréitional upon the McKinley victory. ‘The woolen and cotton mills of the Ips- wich, Mass., corporation, which have been shut down for some time, will start on full time early next week. Employment will be g:ven to about 1,000 persons. The Knowles loom works at- Worcester, Mess., which have been running nine hours a day, five days a week, will start up nexi v.eek on full time—ten hours a day and six days a week. This concern, which em- ploys several hundred hands, has many large orders which were contingent on Mc- Ku:ley’s election. The Winslow skate factory will next week begin working fitty-two hours a week. It has been running forty-five hours. Col. Winslow, the proprietor, says his custom- ers have been holding back orders to see how the election was going, and that now there will be enough to keep the factory running with a full complement of help to the end of the season. There are many evidences of an impetus to business throughout Connecticut as the outcome of the election, notably at New Haven, Meriden, Bridgeport and New Brit- ain. At Bridgeport, Miners & Johnson, car- Tiage manufacturers, took on nearly 200 additional employes yesterday; Eaton, Cole & kEurnham put on 300’ Wednesday, and the Bridgeport malleable iron works will have 1,000 men at work Monday, which is an increase of fifty per cent. Warner's corset factory will be run on full time af- ter November 15, and nearly 2,000 girls will be employed. The Stanley Rule and Level Company of New Britain has posted a notice that here- after the shops will be run six days eacn week, instead of four days, which had been the schedule for the past few months. The mills of the Glastonbury Knitting Company at Manchester, which have been idle several weeks, will start Monday. The Mount Carmel axle works will begin run- nirg on full time Monday. The Ingraham Clock Company of Bristol states that it has orders enough to keep all its hands at work for a year. The orders were given to the company conditional on McKinley's election. Activity at Pittsburg. A special dispatch from Pittsburg to “the Philadelphia Press says: The price of pig iron has advanced considerably since yes- terday morning, when it became known that McKinley had been elected, and that the uncertain times were over. Today pig fron is selling at the furnaces in the Ma- hening and Shenango valleys at $12.25, which means that the price in Pittsburg is frcm $12.60 to $13.90. Some brokers report that large sales have been made at the ad- vanced figures. The advance was the ef- fect of the election, being made by the owners of pig iron, who expect a better market and to allow them a profit on their product, which they have not had for some months. In connection with the advance in the price of pig iron comes the rumor that four of the valley furnaces are to be blown in within the week. There are two of the Carnegie furnaces at Braddock out of operation, one of the Carrie furnaces at Braddock and the furnace of the Pittsburg Iron and Steel Company at Soho that are ready to be blown in as soon as conditions warrant. The big plant of Howe, Brown & Co., on 17th street, resumed this morning, after being idle for over a week. It employs cver 300 men,and had not been running full for quite a long time. In fact, the mills that have been running full for several months past are few. The Hainsworth Steel Company will put its plant in operation Sunday night. It had been closed in all departments for sev- eral weeks. The Oliver Steel Company had many conditional orders and will put its wire mill on full time next week. The Mo- nongahela Tin Plate Company will also put its works in fuller operation, and the Black Diamond Steel Works are expected to go: on in full in a few days. ‘The Shoenberger Steel Company has nearly completed the new open hearth fur- naces, which will be completed as soon as possible to be in readiness to fill the orders that the company expects to receive. It is expected that the Carnegie Union mills, which have been idle for a month, will start up some time next week. The H. K. Porter boiler manufacturing plant will resume in three weeks. Mr. Porter said the firm has many orders con- tingent on the election. The Pittsburg Bridge Company will put more men to work at once, as they expect more trade. In Eastern Pennsylvania.

The -Paxton Rolling Mill Company at Harrisburg yesterday began the erection of a flanging plant, which will give employ- ment at the outstart to quite a number of men in addition to those employed in the other departments of the company’s works. This is a new plant which was dependent forfexistence on the election of the repub- ean ticket. As soon as the question of the next President was settled the Bt. Louis firm which is to supply machinery for the new plant was wired to send on its'repre- sentative.

Gold that has been hoarded in the fear of a financial panic to follow the success of the free silver ticket is now being rapidly withdrawn from its hiding places and put in the usual channels of trade. Informa- tion received at the Treasury Department shows that large amounts of gold coin have been offered at the various subtreasuries in exchange for currency, no stipulation be- ing made as to legal tenders, gold certifi- cates or even coin nutes, and no objection being offered to silver certificates. One million dollars of gold was offered at Boston.

DOUBT STILL AS 70 TWO STATES Closing Up Democratic and Popu- list Headquarters. CHANGES IN THE HOUSE ——_.—_ Very close figures are being made to de- termine whether the republicans will have @ majority in the United States Senate and the probability is that, with the vote of the Vice President, they will have a ma- Jority in that body. Doubt still exists as to Indiana and Ken- tucky, with the probabilities that a repub- lican wil! be returned from each of these states to take the place of a democrat. In the Fifty-fourth Congress the republicans have forty Senators, the democrats thirty- nine, and the populists ten, including in the latter number Senators Dubois, Cannon, Teller and Pettigrew, who have departed from the républican party. The republicans gained through the elec- tions on Tuesday Senators from Illinois, Wisconsin and New York. The party had already gained Senators in Ohio and Mary- land, which gains would increase the re- publican side to forty-five, but there have been losses in Utah and Washington, and possibly in North Carolina, the iatter state having elected a fusion legislature, which may possibly elect a republican, though the probabilities are against such action. Leav- ing North Carolina out of the calculation the republican’s loss of Utah and Washing- ton will give that party forty-three votes in the Senate. This will require the elec- tion of a republican Senator from both Kentucky and Indiana in order to give the victorious party control of the Senate through the vote of the Vice President. Closing Up Headquarters. The democratic and populist officials are ciosing up headquarters today. They are pushing matters to accommodate the Jes- sees of the property, who are going to open and operate a hotel. Senator Faulkner will leave the city today for his home and will return Monday. In the meantime Sec- retary Gardner is out looking for rooms in which to keep up the offices of the con- Gressional committee and of the democratic clubs. He will probably secure two recms, which will answer all purposes until the congressional campaign two years from now. The partitions in the presert headquarters are being torn down, and workmen are busy turning the rooms Into habitable places. The same state of af- fairs exists around the rooms of the pop- ulist and silver parties. Before leaving for his home today Sena- tor Faulkner said to a Star reporter that the estimate he is now making up of the next House shows that the republicans will have between thirty and forty jority. He does not believe the repub will have as many members as the repub- lean managers have claimed. The Sena- tor said he had received a telegram saying that Freeman and Kelley, silver candi- dates for Congress in South Dakota, had both been elected beyond dou The Sen- ator said he had also received another tel- egram from Chairman Dan McConville of Ohio, confirming the news of the election of six democrats in that state—Brenner, Marshal!, Meekison, Lentz, Norton and Me- Dowell. Mr. Faulkner on the Senate. Talking about the composition of the Senate after the 4th of March, Senator Faulkner said: “I Mave carefully gone over the situation in the Senate, and I am cer- tain the silver men will control that body. The Senate will stand forty-six silver men, thirty-nine «gold and five doubtful. Of the five doubtful I think two will be for silver. I have not included in the number of silver men three who will probably vote for a straight silver bill. They would ot, however, vote for a rider on a tariff ‘bill or anything of that kind.” Senator Faulkner does not belleve the tepiicane will be able to pass a tariff Senator Butler and Secretary Edgerton were ‘busy closing up the affairs of the populist national committee. The: are paying off what they owe and are shaping everything so as to have no incumbranc The effects of the committee will be moved to Senator Butler’s committee room at the Senate. Whatever political work is done by the national committee from now on will be from there. Secretary Edgerton will leave this afternoon for his home in Nebraska. He will spend a week at his old home in Ohio on his way out. “I want to say that the newspapers and news- paper men have been fair and square with the national committee,” said Secretary kd- gerton, “but I want to emphasize that The Star has been particularly fair. The silver men cannot complain of either the paper or its representatives. I have never seen a fairer opyonent.” Mr. Edgerton is depu- ty labor commissioner of Nebraska and will resume his work in that line when he reaches his home. His friends here tell him they would like to see him sent to Washington some day as a representative from his state. Changes in the House.

There ‘were fifteen policemen off duty yesterday be-ause of sizkness and fifty-two absent on leave.

For carrying a sling shot William’Smith, cciored, will reside at the District jail for six months to come. The automatic fire-alarm system was put in operation at the Congressional Hotel last night about 8 o'clock, but there was really no necessity for calling out the fire depart- ment. The call was made at the request of a young man who thought there was fire in house No. 400 New Jersey avenue, where a bottle of phosphorus had been accidental- ly broken. Lieutenant Swindells has reported to the proper authorities that there are four dan- serous holes in the Georgetown sidewalks. Two of them are on Prospect avenue, one on N street and the other on Q street. Lieutenant Gessford reported to the Com- rissioners today that the board walk on Fort street, Brookland, is in a dangerous condition. The defect will be remedied. Near the corner of 13th and Q streets there is what fs left of a tree projecting above the sidewalk about six inches. Fear- ing the District may get a damage suit for accident resulting from this dangerous con dition the police have notified the proper authorities to remedy the evil. Chairman Jones has given up the fight, but the Maryland democrats have not given up their Bryan and Sewall banner. The banner is still suspended across Pennsy vania aveneue, where it can be seen by pedestrians, Spanish onions grown in Egypt are in market, and they sell at about 10 cents apiece. ‘They are milder than native-grown onions, aud are in demand for the reason that they do not perfume the breath to a disagreeable extent. A few boxes of Florida oranges have reached here, and some dealers who have not handled them for two years now have tm in stock. The fruit is of the choicest variety and sells at from 50 to 60 cents a dozen. SATURDA It Will Be Fall of Good+ Things for AML Readers.
