llarrisburg, Pa., Oct. 6. A suspicious looking package containing what appeared to be an infernal machine was found in Governor Penny-

packer's mail at the executive man- 1 sion. It was about three inches square and resembled in shape a baking pow-j dor box. Newspaper clippings were tied around the box with small pieces of yellow ribbons. The peculiar ap- j

pearance of the package excited the suspicion of Executive Clerk Lynch, who placed it in a bucket of water and let it soak fcr several hours. Construction of th Machine. Upon being opened, it was found to

contain a small case resembling a ' cartridge shell surrounded by black i powder and was intended to be explod- i ed by the removal of the lid. The package was addressed to the governor. On the outside there was a wide red band, on the outside of which was pasted the name "The Rldgeway company, 31 East Seventh street. New York." and this newspaper extract: Loud Call for Help. "Help, help, help." Teople to their tme place of honor of righting of wrongs in American life through the rmearthing of the beef scandal, insurance scandal, railroad scandal, land grabbing scandals, banking scandals, the revelations of municipal loot and political graft, proves that the moral sense Is keen in the American people. An awakened public conscience is back of our vigilant press, outspoken pulpit and courageous statesmanship." Jumble Without Sense. Inside of the wrapper were words carefully clipped from newspapers and closely pasted to the tin. Among thera were- "Capitol Eedieation." "Keep to the right." "Penrose." "Pennsy," "Why is it?" "Anarchist." The remainder formed a jumble from which 110 sense could be extracted. Was It a Practical Joke ?

The construction of the "machine" was not such as to have rendered it very dangerous, even though it had exploded. Tnere is to clue to the sender. . Subscribe for tie Laie County Times.

Manufacturing Plants Engaged Far in Advance Metal Depart ments in the Iead. New York, Oct. 6. R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trades says: No unfavorable developments have ap

peared except the damage by storm at the south, which was almost entirely local in effect. Autumn trade is now in full swing, especial activity heir g reported in dry goods, millinery ard footwear. Manufacturing plants arc engaged far in advance in all the leading industries, the metal departments making the striking exhibits, and the activity of transporters ia shown by railway earnings in September 9.2 per cent, larger than last year's figures. Crop returns are up to expectations, aside from some loss in cotton, which caused a violent rise in prices. Scarcity of most forms of steel and pres

sure for quick delivery tend to harden quotations, while the rise in pig iron has continued until the inflated position of a few years ago seems about to be attained. Practically all the pig iron furnaces are now in blast and work will soon be started on many i.pw plants of the open hearth variety.
