Others will be started shortly. Following the announcement that the railroads had completed estimate* for new steel rails for 1908 delivery, says the Pittsburg Post, specifications for which were arranged Individually with the steel rail makers, it was reported yesterday that the Union Pacific Railroad Company has placed a contract with the United States Steel Corporation for 35,000 tons of rails, the contract to be divided between the Carnegie and Illinois steel companies.

It is said, have used the President as a stool pigeon, pretending to get Roosevelt delegations which really were to be voted for Cortelyou. This Is .treachery, the Administration's friends maintain, of the worst kind— treason within an official family.

A great many skaters were present who, hail they divined the fun of the thing, woUld have togged up for the occasion, and the next "Hey liube" party promises to be a hummer.At. nine o'clock Manager King and Miss Helen Harry, in costume, led the grand march on skates. All of the evolutions of a ball-room march were executed without a mishap, and at 9:30 o'clock the floor, with a full quota of skaters, became the scene of much jollity and animation. When Manager King led the prize winners out to the center of the auditorium. to Introduce them, the 500 or more skaters and spectators cheered lustily. Harry Baughman's toggery Included the regulation duster, slouch hat. long locks, spare form, cowhide boots that opposed his trousers' legs, mittens, etc. Hhe carried about, pendant from her arm. an old open-work shopping bag which contained about a peck of apples and turnips, and not even the shadow of a smile crossed her face as she munched at a turnip about the sine of a football. Miss Grafflus' make-up consistof the plain, severely plain, skirt, bob tly waist, apron and breakfast shawl. Her hair rolls covered most of both sides of her face, and a tiny dress bonnet trimmed with beads and berries topped off t lie whole. Specks, ribbons and an old umbrella were her only adornments. At about 8:4"| o'clock the lights were turned on and the judges, Gregg Baumgardner, Harry McGregor and Ralph Lake, got busy. It only required a brief inspection to determine that Miss Maggie Grafflus and Harry Baughman were the winners of the prizes, a pair of fine kid gloves, each. Only a small pfrrcentage of the skaters had taken tho trouble to tlx up a complete "Hey Rube" outfit, but a goodly number essayed the comic and grotesque. At i: 30 the "Hey Rube" guard march began in the Skating Auditorium. The walls of the rink were decorated with corn fodder and from the corners, grinning pumpkin devils blinked, their gruesome visages being emphasized by a pale moon that shone from aloft in the southeast cornet*. The fun began at seven o'clock, when a bevy of boys dressed In "SI Plunkard" fashion and armed with horns and drums did a "Hey Rube" band stunt along Mahoning Street. The "Hey Rube" party given in the Auditorium Skating Rink last night was the acme of unalloyed social Intercourse on wheels, for those who I participated. A. C. Robinson of this place yester- i ty attended the meeting of the dl- I ctors of the sunimervllie Telephone >mpany at Brookvllle. Reports owed that the company was In a urlshlng condition, and a live per nt dividend was declared, payable January IS, 1908. The meeting was preliminary to the |ular annual meeting of thu stocklers and directors which will be Id in Summervllle, January 8. It. All business was placed in conion for the coming meeting. The ectors present were: Dr. J. Brown. Brookvllle; Benjamin Kock, of mmervllle; Frank Prothero, of Du- Mi W. T. Cox, of Reynoldsville; A. Robinson, of Punxsutawney. CANEVIN TO omCIATE "Immediately upon arriving at Vesta both men went to the miners' club rooms, which are located about 150 feet from the place where, the man's body was found. Three dwelling houses, all occupied by miners, separate the club shanty, as It Is known, from the culvert. Here some of the miners were accustomed to gather in the evenings and talk, smoke and ; have a social time. The club, of which the dead man was secretary. was run on the strictest order, only being allowed open on Saturday nights until twelve o'clock, and other nights until 9. Those occupying the adjoining houses have never made any complaint * against the place. The club rooms are two, neatly but not well furnished, and stand very close to the P. V. and C. tracks. Seibert stayed there till about 11:45. it Is supposed, and then] AKROK ' ohio.-Refullng to turn started home.

He was never known to take the path down the railroad to where it intercepted the hill path. "It is out of the question that the "Seibert was 29 years of age and unmarried, being the only support of his widowed mother and an uncle, who is suffering from a broken leg at the mother's home. A cutter by trade, Seibert was well known and well liked by all his fellow workers. On Saturday evening after drawing his pay, he went to his moher and gave it all to her as was his custom. He asked for fifty cents for spending money and then came to this place on an errand. lie left for Vesta on the 7:15 street car in company with Frank Webb, engineer at the mines. "Only the man's hands, face and feet were wet from the water, although his entire clothing was damp from the heavy dew which hung over this section. A cut about three inches in length at the base of the brain made by some blunt instrument and extending into the skull, was the only mark on the body. In no other place was the dead man even bruised, as would result from a fall from the railroad tracks. His clothing was in perfect condition, and not a drop of blood stained his garments in any place, making it evident that his clothing had been carefully cleaned before he was placed in the stream. His collar, a celluloid article, showed no signs of having been stained nor was the hair matted with bood. "Oscar Molen, a Swedish miner employed in Vesta No. 1, laid off from work yesterday morning on account of 111 health, and walking from the tipple to the culvert, a distance of about 200 feet, he sat down at the edge of the culvert on the ties. He was close enough to the edge to look i straight down to the water, a sheer drop of twenty-two feet. There he was horrified to see the body of a man lying face downward in the water, which is only about two Inches In depth. Deputy Coroner V. E. Reeves, of this place, was at once notified."Lying face downward in a shallow stream of water, the half frozen body of Albert L. Seibert, a miner in Vesta No. 1, was found under a culvert on the P. V. and C. Railroad yesterday afternoon near Vesta. The mail was evidently murdered and his body hidden under the culvert, where it might have lain a week if it had not been discovered in the chance way that it was. Apparently without any motive whatever the crime Is one of the most baffling in years. The Charlerol Mail, which arrived here yesterday, contained the following account of the finding of young Seiberl's body in a stream: The young man's name was Albert Seibert who, with his two brothers and mother, moved from West End, Punxsutawney, to Charlerol, last April. the crime. mer Punxsutawney boy at Vesta mines, near Charlerol, has caused great excitement in both towns, the officers of which are completely mystified and baffled In tiller efforts to ferret out the fiend who committed The mysterious death of a for- CONNELLSVILLE, Pa.—In a collision between an engine an <he Johnstown-Meyerdale accommodation on the Baltimore & Ohio at Meyer»- dale, Mrs. Joseph La*ler, of Kai.ton.
