Ths W. C. T. U. Convention and
the Temple.
The action of the W. C. T. V. con
vention yesterday in practica_y aban
doning the Chicago Temple and re
pudiating- its debt does not accord well
with the high principles which th _c
1 women are supposed to repre-
Rent, If a body of men should reach j
i such a decision with respect to a c r
. orate institution, they would go out
Into the world with the brands of
cowardice and dishonesty upon them. ]
It may be true that the Temple •
project was ill-advised. At the time :
i the building association was organiz- !
; e.j, however, the work of the W. C. J
; T. D. was promising In the line of re- |
| su.ts. The object was certainly c >m
: mendable. The women associated with
re engaged in a noble cause, and i
right worthily have they advanced that i
cause on a material I ._is. far-reaching
in the influen' I \vl_n !
the Temple organization was effected,
the times were prosperous; Chicago real
estate was highly valued; the Mdectioa
of the site for the Temple was wisely j
the plot of ground being in the !
v. ry heart of the business center of !
the city. It waa acquired on the j
ground-rent pian, than which there is |
none better. But disaster overtook the
country about the time the Temple was
comp:
Thi- building was designed for rental |
to numerous tenants, a.nd the revenues |
.v. re expeoted to be ln sufficient vol- I
ume to provide a surplus for the main- I
teoanoe of th.- work of the W. C. T. U.
The character of the ownership, how
ever, necessitated discrimination as to
the tenantry. Anything Introduced by
.»ld into the place irhich was in- j
nous with the moral prlnrij.les
irhich the union sought to advance 1
I be of itse>f a subje-ct of scan- j
dal. Responsible tenants, from a pe
rLii'i try point- Of vi. .v, might hay.- I n
secured, but they trere objectionable
from the union's standpoint of moral
ity. Hence the Temple has remained
la tbe heart of Chicago, a partially, but j
unprofitably tenanted structure, but
rthaiesg a silent symlnjl of the
pore thoughts and high moral' qualities j
of Its promoters. Its failure as a bust
nterprlse Is only that which has j
been common to many another build- j
!* gr.it dimensions not only in
Chicago, but in th* more Important
rommerHal center of New York, a re
sult largely -attributable to the stress
-»f the time...
The w. c. T. U. ar. not morally

Dramatic ana Musical.
METROPOLITAN.
Here Is the story of "The Moth and th*
F__e:"
A dishonored man, who has sacrificed to his
appetite for gambling the money that has
beea entrusted to him, commits suicide. While
the pistol Is stii: smoking in his hand his
daughter accept* the love of a rake, who has
conceived a sincere passion for her. £_c is
warned of his past, but is disposed in a
■Romanly way to believe in him ar.d his love
for her as ref.-__.ry conditions. She knows
nothing of her father's dishonor. Her lover
is taken into the secret hy the uncle of th.c
girl and he furnishes tbe money that s*vps
the reputation of tbe dead man. At the ste^s
of the altar his past Intervenes between the
rake and his bride. He is claimed by the
v.oman he has dec eived and deserted, who
confronts him with his child. His bride
stands firmly by b>.m in spite of the story ;
«t the de_rte_ woman, for s'..e loves him [
greatly snd believes him. In an agony of \
pleading the des.rted woman attacks him on ;
the steps of the sanctuary and is ao bitter j
in her denunciation tbat be strikes her to !
the ground. The Mow kills the love of his
bride for h ; m, and she leaves him to his "
shame. TTTe following day be makes his ap
pearance at ber home, and in endeavoring to
force her to marry him he tells her of her
father's shame and how he saved him. Sim
repels him and moves him to such a sense of
•<;- duty that he goes away to extiate hi. ,
I ast. leaving his name to the woman whom ,
he had wronged. That Is an outline of the
story, but It conveys really no Idea of what
there ls In the clay.
It is a most extraordinary play, and ln it <
Clyde Fitch has added something to the liter- ]
ature of the stage— scm_hing that may live
or di. so far as the public is concerned, but ,
which wii! never lack in Interest while lt ls |
y . on the stage. The story of the play will
attract the attention and curiosity of thosa
who speculate on the mimic Joys and woes of
the stage — the play itself commands absolute
ly the admiration of the beholder for Its
masterful construction. It is rich ln delight- '
ful comedy; it has the true social flavor snd !
ie doe* a most difficult thing ln portraying j
the life of today. Moreover, it is full of
the essence of life at this end of the century, :
when one is obliged. If in it at all, to ac> -ex>t
stabs in the heart and shout vive la bagatelle ;
— perhaps not literally, but ln fact.
" The Moth and the Flame" Is in three '
acts. The first presents the unique idea of ;
a children's party given for grown-up peo- j
pie, beautifully staged and costumed, during
the progress of which parry the life of the I
assemblage is driven to suicide by the dis- j
osvery of his wrongdoing.
The second act is quite as original, show
ing the int.rior of a church, the guest..,
women of the great world, gathering before j
the ceremony and indulging in that ordlnar
lly meaningless and Insincere talk which Is I
accepttd as the small change of society. The '.
comedy lines ln this scene are brilliant and
actually witty in their capacity for Uiumi
natmg character. The act goes to the limit j
of the dramatic in the closing scene. The |
las: act ls set in the room in which the j
wedding presents of the Ul-fat.d bridal pair J
are shown. The stage setting is beautiful. 1
lt goes without saying that anything played :
by Mr. Kelcey and Miss Shannon would be .
done quite perfectly. In "The Moth aud
the Flume," as lt was given at the Metro
politan before a very large audience last
night, Mr. Kelcey has • strong acting part, j
It is not a grateful part and might be illffl - :
cult for an actor of ordinary capacity. Mr. '
Kelcey plays the man of the world who j
has found he goal of his life and who is
ready to sacrifice anything to attain that j
goal, ln the love of a go_, Woman. In his ■
passion he does things that makee one abhor '
him, but lie does everything so well, he
plays the harsher scenes with such subi_y
tbat one does no: lose sight of the fact that
ln his worst moods he is suffering in atone
ment for his past.
Miss Shannon is the Marion Wolton, the
bride. The rolo ts on* that ls full of strong
ly BS____U situations, but the capital act
ing of Miss Shannon makes her most i_ig
nant dlatr-as the more affecting ln that It
doe* not shriek. She ls charming in her !
fa-_a__o_ gtrllshnes*. snd she and Mr. Kelcey |
mako love in sucb a fervent y_ well-bred '
! way tha; It might be commended to ia|
people who have curiosity ln that direction.
The** two sre admirably supportod. The
company is much larger snd bettt r in «.. ry
respert than any we have seen ln the Kelcey-
Sliannou _u;>iM>rt.
A: the bead of the support ls * very < :• .rr
actress. Mis* Marion At>!x>:t. Miss Abbott
Is cast for Mrs. I_orimer. twice a widow
through the intervention of the divorce
court, but who Is happily provided with
number thrc-e before the final curtain. Mis*
Abbott has a generous amount of tha: sort
at t:.lent which gladdens the stage. Her
jollity Is Infectious and she sp<_ks the sharp
thinga she has to aay like a woman who
koows just what to say and how to say It.
The s*age dlvor <*_c i« not always a happy
creation. Miss Abbot;, by th ■ proper ren
dering of Mr. Pitch's lines, wll! make us
j think belter ot the type she portrays.

Iron and Steel— The output of pig iron
Nov. 1 was 225.935 tons weekly, against 215.
--635 Oct. 1. Thia is but 5.500 tons weekly
leas than the greatest production ever at
_med, March 1 last year, but then stocks
were being increased, so that the apparent
consumption was only 32,609 tons dally,
whereas the unsold stocks decreased in Oc
tober 35.141 tons, which with the average
daily output indicates a consumption of i
32.892 tons dally, or 1,019,646 Tor the month
of October. This ls probably the highest
consumption ever attained in this country,
although stocks held by the great steel com
panies are not Included In the record of the
Iron Age. One of the largest producers
has been selling rather large block* of Bes
semer and basic pig at Pittsburg, and as
buyers are generally supplied far ahead,
some weakness appears, with gray forge

The remarkable feature is the export de
mand, which surpasses all expectations, in
cluding 40,000 tons steel rails for Northern
Europe and 100.000 tons plates, which man
ufacturers have been arranging to distribute.
But other export orders include 16.500 tcna
billets from Pittsburg, and large quantities
of bars, rods, wire snd a great variety
of manufactured products. Home demand ts
also steady for the season, and large enough
to sustain all prices. Chicago notes orders
for 2.000 cars, and another covering 2.000
tons plate with surprisingly large orders
for light rails, and for hardware throughout
the West. Pittsburg notes orders for steel cars

COAL BAROMS AT SLIT
FUEL COMPANY WITH HEADQUAR
TERS HERE GOES IXTO A
RECEIVER'S HANDS
PROTECTION OF BOND OWNERS
That Is the Reason Assigned l»y
Local Officers for the Legal Pro
ceedings Which Resulted In the
Receivership Pennsylvania &
Ohio Fuel Company Expects to
Continue Without Interruption.
The following dispatch came last
night through the Associated Press
from Cincinnati:
The Turney & Jones Coal company, of
Columbus. 6., and the Pennsylvania „
Ohio Fuel company, of Su Paul, with of
fices also In Chicago, were today by the fed-
I eral court put into the hands of the Se
curity and Title company, of Chicago, as re-
I ceivers. In the suit of Putnam against thtse
companies application wrs made to have
George S. Season of Columbus, also as a
receiver, but on the objection of Samuel M.
I Felton, receiver of the Columbus. Sandusky
j tc Hocking Railroad company, Judge Taft re
fused to confirm Beason, who has beea em
ployed by the coal company. Receiver Fel
ton pleaded that these coal oompanles should
be considered ln the appointment of the re
ceiver. Judge Taft reserved to a further
date the appointment of some practical coal
operator as co-receiver with the Chicago Se
curity and Title company. These companies
are among the largest that ever operated in
the Ohio coal fields. Their Troubles com
menced in the summer of 1597 with the
great coal strike. They had large contracts
to fill ln the Northwest and were unable
to get coal until late ln the summer and
j then at a high price, and with very high
i freights. The result was a loss of over $200,
--: 000 at that time. This summer they bought
; very large Quantities of coal, which is still
! on their docks, while their collections have
j been very slow. As they bought the coal
early, a great deal of paper has fallen due
before reeelpts were coming in. The crisis
was brought about by New York parties de
claring due the whole of an issue of J2SO 000
of obligations, because one of the Install
ments was not paid promptly. The liabilities
amount to J1, 200.000. The officers of the com
pany claim they will pay the liabilities in
full if the assets are carefully handled. The
I two companies were owned by the same
parties— mostly by H. D. Turney. of Colum
bus, and John S. Jones, of Chicago— and had
to stand or fall together. The mines of these
companies furnished about one-half of the
coal tonnage of the Columbus, Sandusky &
Hooking railroad, and the future of that
property depends very largely on what is
done by the newly appointed receivers of
these ooal companies.
BONDHOLDERS DID IT.
E. il. Piatt, resident vice president
of the Pennsylvania _ Ohio branch of
the fu_ company, when shown the
above dispatch last evening, had the
following to say concerning the pass
ing of the company Into the hands of
a receiver:
"It ls a mistake to suppose that any
losses in the ordinary transaction of
business had any bearing upon tha
appointment of the receiver. It is tru.
the company sustained come losses In
15... a_ stated ln the telegram, bat the
amount was much less than $200,000
and this year the company's paper was
being met as fast as k fell due. The
iral cause of the application was the
j demand of Eastern bondholders for
! the immediate redemption of the oom-
I pany's lxinds, and the application for
j a receiver was the result of an amlc
; able arrangement for the protection of
the company. The bonds ln qu<.
were issued two years ago, when tlv
Pennsylvania & Ohio Coal company
and the Turney & Jmes conipany .on
_>l__le_ The bond*, were purchased
by New York investors, and in the
course of events all came due, at the
time. The redemption of th ■
bonds called for a large sum of a_c__y,
••urtiouiarly u.t this ■—aoc of the year !
*h< • the company's business Is at its
height, and so wheat the holders of th_
bonds lnatsted upon Immediate redemp
tion, the affairs of the company ware
placed ln the hands of the co_t. to
prevent unfair advantage l>ein_; taken
t>y the boiKlboldeiß. As nearly as I
understand the situation the company
will continue to conduct its bus-lness
as heretofore, until such time as th
Question of tlie l_nds may be j-eltled,
when lt will reas*_um_ its former lnde.
I<emdent <*ourse of business, and while |
the appointment of the receiver may, !
on the face of the case, give tlie a_p- I
pt a ranee of a failure, such Is In no
wise the real status.
"Th*- appointment of the rcce've; wIM
have r. local effect. The company has
practically no oredUoi. in th- North
wett, particularly in EH. Paul, other,
of oourse, than ordinary outstanding
business obligations, and its a=s.*ts arc
in the best of comTtlon. No Rt. Paul
bank ls ln any way concern*-!. We
have a large number of contrails on
hand and our docks at Dcluth u*>d at
railroad points are loaded n ith co_ s»
that the busin.-is of the company will
no doubt go right on as thoußh its
affair, harl not pa»sed into the hands
o. tlie court, rio far a-J I knot* th
rnly bearing the appoinlm_it of the
receiver can bave on the Columbus.
Suiiili-sky & Ho-Klng rallioad, r _erre 1
ti in the telegram, arises from |_c fact
that the company has U-.ti a lar^e
shlpp-er over the road, which runs
throii.t-_ the country wh. r«- the com
pany's mmcc are operated. If it had
n_t been tor the attitude of the _a. .■ r.i
bondholders, in my opinion, no com
plications would have arisen, as the
company, particularly the Northwest
ern branch, with l* _tdquanter_ In St.
Paul, has been doing an entirely satis
factory business."
The Pennsylvania _ Ohio Coal oom
puny, as lt now exists, was forniid two
y-ars ngo by the amalgamation of th *
Turney & Jones Coal company and
the old Pennsylvania _ Ohio company.
The N crn branch was kr. ;>_
as the Pennsylvania & Ohio company
and operated throughout Minnesota,
the Dakotas and parts of _
Its h< ad quarters are In th's (Ity. It
has a large retail business in both St
P.>ul and Minneapolis.
J. S. Jones, vice president of the Tur
ney-Jones Coal company, and president
of the Pennsylvania Sc Ohio Fuel com
pany, last night gay? out the fo/low
in.-r statement:
Thp Turney and Jone« company and th"
'vanla and Ohio Fuel company ha-e
been put Into the hand< of receivers hy the
federal courts.
Their trouble *n_mencr._ tn the tu_m°r of
1887 With s coal strike. They had Urge con
tracts to fill lv the Northwest and wero un
ab> to get coil until late ln the sum .;■_-.
and then et higher price* and w_h high lake
freights. The result vtaa a loss of ov«r $200.- i
m. The crisis wss brought ab.ut by some
New York parties declaring due the whole
of an Issue of $2_,(*eo of obligations given
some time ago, because an Installment w_
not promptly paid.
The whole liabilities amount to about _.
-200.000. The companies are owned by the
same parties, and had to stand or fall to
gether.
Both concerns sre in excellent _h>pe and
but for tbe trouble with the New York par
ti . the trouble would not have come about.
I believe we could have borrowed all the
money we wanted, but rather than permit
these New York parties to secure a pr« . r*no

say that but for the chasige that was
made previous to the war, requiring
inspector generals ln the fleid to r-
pr-rt to the adjutant general instead of
the inspector general, the condition of
the camps now being developed by the
commission would have been developed
three months ago.
Dr. Huldekoper said that with a few
unimporten* exceptions the medical
FuppHea for the Porto Ricsn expedition
bad been ample. _U Newport Newa he
had given orders that the sick men b?
eliminated from the command, -but he
found that the order had been evaded
and sick men taken aboard. This was

MARIA TERESA^ INQUIRY.
Ollicers Must Explain Why the War
ship Wn« Deserted.
WASHINGTON, N. v. 14.— Lieutenant
Commander T. Harris, who was in com
mand of the Spanish cruiser Maria
Teresa at the time of her abandon
ment, has been ordered to pioceed from
Charleston, with tho enlisted men for
merly attached to the Teresa, to the
navy yard at Norfolk. No additional
details were received at the department
today concerning the condition of the
Spanish warship, but it is .ssumed
that the ships Potomac and Vulcan,
which were sent to her relief, are using
their utmost endeavors to draw her off
the beach at Cat island. The report
that the tide rose and fall within the
wreck would seem to indicate that she
is In need, of extensive repairs before
erne can be made to fit >at. Whether the
leakage can be stopped while she lies
in her present position remains to be
seen. The Vulcan ls equipped with all
tools and machinery for the ordinary
repair of sbtps of war. and, unless tho
Teresa is damaged to a greater extent
than is believed, the facilities at hand
are sufficient to repair her an ■ •*••* her
ln condition to lie towed to
