The American Manufacturer to-morrow will say: "It is understood that the mills making steel rails recently combined and notified the railroad Interests of the country that prices would be advanced and that the railroads could cover their wants at $33 per ton. Nearly every railroad in the country came In with orders and an aggregate of 1,500 tons of rails were ordered at the above' price, for delivery in 1900. Thex price was then raised by rail-makers as follows: For standard sections In lots from one hundred to two hundred tons, $37; carload lots, -$33, and less than carloads, $40; light rails, from twentyfive to fifty pounds per yard, $37 per ton. All the prices Quoted are f. o. b. Pittsburg mills. The importance of this can scarcely be realized. The total sales aggregate about $30,000,000. This means that about one-sixth of the total steel output for 1100 will be con sumed In the manufacture of rails. This does not Include the orders placed by the Russian government some time ago. together with other orders, which will make tne aggregate tonnage next year much more' than has already been ordered. This fixes it, beyond all peradventure, that prices or iron and steel for 1900 will be consider ably higher than prevailing figures." Bis; Denl In Leather Trust Stock.

DEATH OF GRANT ALLEN

OXn OF THE MOST POPULAR. AND VERSATILE WHITE-US OF THE DAY. Xoted for the lnterestintr "Way In Which He Treated Scientific SubjectsAlso n. Good Novelist. LONDON. Oct. 23. Grant AUn, the author, who has been in ill health for some time past, is dead. Charles Grant Blalrtindie Allen was born In Kingston, Ont., Feb. 24, 1S4S. After graduation at Merton College, Oxford, he occupied for four years the chair of logic and philosophy at Queen's College, Spanish Town, Jamaica, which he resigned to settle in England, where he resided at the time of his death. Early in his career he became an enthusiastic follower of Darwin and Herbert Spencer, 'and published the attractive tcoks, "Science In Arcady," "Vignettes from Nature." "The Evolutionist at Large" and "Colin Clout's Calendar." In his preface to "Vignettes from Nature" he says that the "essays are written from an easy-going, half-scientific, half-aesthetic standpoint." Grant Allen, as he was mast popularly known (though at times he wrote under the pseudonyms "Arbuthnot Wilson" and "Cecil Power") was an Industrious writer, turning his hand with equal facility to scientific writing, to essays, short stories, botanical treatises, biography and novels. His work may be divided into two classes: fiction and popular essays. The first showed him to be familiar with varied scenes and types, and showed that he had much feeling for dramatic situations. His list of novels ts long and Includes, among manv others. "The Tents of Shem," "Strange Stories," "Babylon.""The Mortal Coil," "The Woman Who Did," "Recalled to Life." "The Great Taboo" and "The British Barbarian." In many of these books he wove his plot about a psychological theme; a sure proof that science interested him more than invention. His essays were written for unscientific readers', and carefully avoided all technicalities and tedious discussions. He said once: "Most persons would much rather learn why birds have feathers than why they have a keeled sternum, nnd they think the origin of bright flowers far more attractive than the origin of monocotyledonous seeds or esogenous stems." His more scientific works include: "Psychological Aesthetics." "The Color Sense," "The Color of Flowers." "Flowers and Their Pedigree." and still deeper than any of these is hla "Force and Energy" (1SSS), a theory of dynamics, in which he expressed original views. Besides these works, Mr. Allen wrote for the series called "English Worthies." a sympathetic "Life of Charles Darwin" (1S83.) Mr. Allen, in spite of chronic ill health, was one of the hardest of literary workers. One of his last productions was "The European Tour: A Handbook for Americans and Colonists " The main object of the book was to suggest a definite plan for seeing and digesting as much of Europe as a healthy appetite is capable of taking in at a single sitting. It is not generally known that Mr. Grant Allen had been accumulating materials for this and rimilar works during the last twenty years His note books alone would make a decent-sized library.

OMINOUS VEIL (Conclnded from First Page.) a party, was driven back to Gncoe. The Hussars were fired at as far dowii at Moderspruit." A special dispatch from Cape Town, dated 9:10 o'clock Wednesday morning, says there has been another battle at Ladysmlth and that the Boers were repulsed. The British casualties were placed at four killed and seven wounded, all rank and file. The Daily Mail has the following from Fitermartzburg, Natal, dated Oct. 23: "The proclamation of martial law throughout Natal nas given great satisfaction. "Among tho Boer prisoners at Ladysmlth are Do Witt Hamer, member of the Raad for Barberton, and Dr. Van Leggele, public prosecutor at Heidelberg. Among the killed was Mr. De Long, secretary of the Transvaal educational department "It is now expected that Gen. Jan Kock, the Boer commander, will recover. General White gave him the option of being taken to Pretoria or remaining at Ladysmlth, and he chose the Tatter. "The heavy losses of the King's Royal Rides at Dundee seems to have been due to the black belts worn over the khaki, and which afforded an excellent target." A dispatch from Ladysmlth, dated In the evening of the 22d inst, says: "Boer artillery is shelling Dundee and the former British camp. Our troops are now occupying an intrenched camp. The Boer artillery is firing at very long range and the shells are ineffective. Communication with Dundee Is severed. The Boer wounded and prisoners are still coming in. and the former are receiving every attention. Gen. Ben Viljoen is wounded and a prisoner." LONDON, Oct. 23. The Standard's special correspondent with the forces at Ladysmith, who was captured by the Boers and released at the battle of Elandslaagte, in describing his experiences, says: "Unsoldierly as the Boers might seem, there was no mistaking their physical fitness. Nearly all of them are strong, powerfully built men, while a few are veritable giants. They were all in highest spirits. For instance, on the night of our capture, our field cornet was induced to preside over an impromptu smoking concert It was amusing to see a Johannesburger playing the piano with his gun still slung over his shoulder, while his. more rustic comrades stood around spellbound. They sang 'Transvaal . Volkslled' with immense fervor. The one subject of their talk was the resolute determination to fight to the last for the Independence of their country." A dispatch from Cape Town to-day says that General White has engaged the Orange Free State Boers, who were advancing on Ladysmlth, about seven miles northward, and that it was believed the advance had been repelled. This is probably another version of yesterday's fighting, as already known. IX WESTERN SOLT1I AFRICA. Cape Colony Dutch Muy Join the rioer Tli Defence of Ivlmberley.

Glcncoe are likely to Induce the Dutch to side with their countrymen already in the tield. It is said, for instance, that the Boer forces have evacuated Vryburg, which, it is added,' will be garrisoned by the local Dutch, among whom are prominent bundites and government employes. It is also believed that the Dutch beyond Griquatown are only awaiting encouragement to declare for the Transvaal. Advices from Phlllpstown yesterday say that the searchlights of the Kimberley defenses were visible the previous night and that therefore Kimberley Is still Intact. The latest dispatches from Kimberley give details of the arrangements made by the British commander for defense of the town. The meat consumption is limited to a pound daily, a nre brigade has been formed and its members are prohibited from Joining in the defense of the place, as their services are likely to be otherwise required. The townsfolk are working ungrudgingly, notwithstanding sleepless nights and the absence of business. Miles of barbed wire surround the town. The Boers remain out of reach of the guns. A dispatch to the Morning Post from Kimberley, dated Oct. 21, via Orange river, Oct. 24, says: "An armored train was engaged this evening; o: of our men was killed. Two trucks of d :nmite which were removed from the towa for safety, were blown up by the Boern. The Boer loss is uncertain. The Boer artillery moved around trying to draw the force covering the town. There was a small engagement, .but nothing of consequence happened. We are completely isolated, but as safe as a bank. Not one man has left. Bain is approaching. Our troops met the enemy cutting the line today and a Maxim gun on the train did good work and cleared away the wreckers." Advices from Orange River, Cape Colony, near the Orange Free State border, announce that the Boers have taken Krypdam, near Barkly West, north of Kimber- , ley. and that Assistant Magistrate Harms- ! worth and his clerks are prisoners. It is supposed the Boers are advancing on Douglas, further west the inhabitants of which place are asking for protection. A dispatch from Masaru, dated Oct. 24, says Commissioner Iagden was then starting to meet Lerothodl and other Basuto chiefs at Putiatsuz river, where the chiefs have assembled at the request of Lefothodi to pledge their loyalty to the Queen. A dispatch from Durban, dated Oct. 22. says authentic Information has reached there from Melmouth, Zululand, that on Saturday a large Boer force was approaching. The Inhabitants forthwith entered Fort Maxwell, anticipating an attack at dawn on Monday. The offer of General Cronje, the Boer commander in the vicinity of Mafeklng, to Colonel Baden-Powell to exchange prisoners referred to Captain Nesbitt and others of the armored train wrecked at Kraaipan. A special dispatch from Pretoria, via Lorenzo Marquez, dated Oct. 24, purports to give an interview with one of the highest Transvaal executives, who Is quoted as having urged that while the Boer successes were yet unimportant there was still opportunity for an amicable settlement, as he believed the Boers had been misled as to the real Issue. f TOWS' OF MAFEKIXG, Which Ia Be Ins: Defended Again nt the Doer by Col. Baden-Powell. London Mall. It is' reported that the first attack of the Boers is to be made upon the comparatively defenseless town of Mafeklng, In that part of Cape Colony formerly known as British Beehuanaland. It Is not perhaps altogether fair to call Mafeklng defenseless, for during the past few weeks of tension we have heard that the place has been more or less protected by sandbags and hastily thrown up earthworks. But Mafeklng lies entirely In the open, bare on the veldt, which Is as flat as a pancake. A few Isolated kopjes, an ant heap every here and there, a clump of bushes under three feet high these are the only things that break the monotony of the landscape. The veldt runs right away to the far distant sky line, and only a few scattered tin shanties mark the line of railway. if the traveler were adventurous enougn to travel by the through express from Cape Town to Bulawayo, away up in far Rhodesia, he would find Mafeklng practically half way between the two. To be exact it is 870 miles from the former and 803 miles from the latter. Kimberley is 144 miles south. This railway, by the way, Is the main Cape to Cairo route, and will one day carry the unavoidable globe trotter right through Africa from end to end. There la nothing palatial about Mafeklng. Normally it is a simple little township of a few -hundred souls. .Primarily it Is a trading station with the far north, and there are many stores of greater or less importance. Grain stores, forage stores, tinned goods, saddles, rifles, ammunition, even furniture, can, or could, be bought there. In the center of the main street Is the market place, surrounded by galvanized iron houses and stores, each with Its little raised veranda before it, painted green and white, and many of the more miscellaneous shops bearing weird Indian names. For the enterprising (Mohammedan trader has found his way through South Africa and competes very keenly and successfully with the white men. The main street of Mafeklng is a long, wide and straggling thoroughfare with plane trees, eucalyptus and diminutive oaks at intervals. The houses all stand in little plots of ground and there are attempts at cultivation here and there a few sunflowers or a potato patch or a hanging trail of the grenadilla or passion flower fruit There is a church in fact, there are three, of different denominations there is a club, there is a prison, and, highest point of all civilization, there is the Salvation Army. A good deal of horse buying and selling takes place at Mafeklng. It Is rather a center and a market for the surrounding farmers, who bring in their ugly looking but very useful and untirable nags to the weekly auctions on the market place. A good horse may often be picked up In ymes of. peace, of course,) for 6 to 8, and, though he may be an ugly beggar to look at, he can do almost anything that is asked of him and will outlast many a handsomer looking" animal. FOR KISSING IN PUBLIC. Yule Student nnd Tretty Girl Sentenced to IS Day in Jail. NEW HAVEN, Conn., Oct 25. Stephen Lawrence, of the law school. Is the first Yale undergraduate in fifty years to be sentenced to jail. Mr. Lawrence was this morning sentenced to fifteen daya' imprison rr.ent for the crime of kissing a pretty girl. The unrelenting Judge sentenced the girl to fifteen days' imprisonment Mr. Lawrence has appealed to the Superior Court and fur nished bonds for their appearance. Law rence last evening asked Miss May Carroll, a handsome and vivacious shop girl, to take supper with him. S-ne consented. They went to a restaurant much frequented by fashionable people and students. Lawrence ordered supper, and while it was being pre pared and while they were enjoying the sup per he made love to MLs Carroll with all the ardor of his twenty-two years. She listened to him with all the discretion of a maiden of eighteen. When Mr. Lawrence paid his bill the cashier noticed his face was flushed and that a pretty pink suffused Miss Carroll's cheeks a blush raised maybe by Mr. Lawrence's compliments. As he and she walked toward the door Mr. Lawrence, unable long er to control himself, leaned over and kissed Miss May. Nor can it be truly said that she" shrank from him. People at the tables smiled. But Policeman Wlnchell took no such hu mane view of Liwrence's peccadillo. Stand ing outside the doer Wlnchell ?uw the your.g man kiss Mls May. In this State It offends the law to kiss in public. Wlnchell promptly arrested Lawrence and mis May t nd took them both to the station house. Liwrence summoned his friends, who gave .Sail for both; so they were spared the ignominy of parsing the nls;ht !n eelL. This morning the law student and the shop girl appeared before Judge Krwln C. Dow in the City Court. Frowning, Judge Dow heard Winchell's testimony. The general statute gives to the Jui'ge the db?crtlon of administering a fine of from $10 to J10O or of imprisonment up- to thirty days for the eriire Af kissing in public, even If the girl klyd dees not object. Judge Dow took the harsher course. Fifteen days' imprisonment for each.". he said sternl. Then Mr. Lawrence appealed the case and gavft bond He and 2Usa Carroll have left

EDUCATION AND CRIME Latter Increasing In Georgia, Al thouKh Illiteracy Ia Decreasing. - ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 21 The Georgia Legislature met in regular session to-day. After organization had been perfected the message of Governor Candltr was read. The chief executive took the position that there should be the strictest economy lc the administration of the school fund ol the State and pointed out the importance of restricting the work of the public sihools to the elementary branches. If educatiou In text-books caused a decrease of crime, he argued, that would be fcuthottnt rd$on for imposing even heavier burdens, but hepointed out that while education has decreased illiteracy among the negroes trtma ha increased. Governor Candler devoted several paragraphs of his message to the tin futjects of crime and mob violence. He referred in general terms to the crimes In different sections of the State, taking the r option that the unusual amount ot crims by lawless negroes and tile coneq.i;nt frprecedented amount of mob violence ran be laid at the door of intermeddling and irretponribl fanatics and fools, who do not know anythlnR of the tdtuation in the South nor the real relations of the people of the two race?. He believed that almost not nil of thepe criminal act on the part of the lawless negroes can be traced to tha people whose utterances in their newspaper and through Incendiary letters sent ta negroes in the South "have greatly aggravated a situation which they prclea t3 deplore.
