FRIDAY, APRIL 13. 1895.

STAIN'S apology to the United States for firing into the Allianca seems to be in a state of innocuous desuetude.

WHAT a glorious thing it would be if the Supreme Court would knock out all the legislation of the Fifty-third Congress.

AND so ex-Congressman Brookshire wants to be a land commissioner. When a man once gets a taste he never wants to let go.

IT IS not safe for a preacher in these days in reproving the people for their sins to take aim and hit the bull's eye. He should use a shotgun and fire in the air. By this means the shot will scatter and only a chance bird will be wounded. The next time Dr. Lansing speaks he must not use a rilie.

IN France they propose to tax titles thus: Prince, 1,000 francs Duke, 800 francs: Marquis, 700f Count, 500f Viscount, 500f. Baron, 400 francs double prefix, 200 francs single prefix, 100 francs. The rates appear to be reasonable enough, but why should a Government that professes to be a republic recognize titles of nobility in this way. It would be better to abolish them altogether. They are not recognizable under a republic.—Boston Herald.

If this country were to tax all the Generals, Colonels, Judges and 'Squires in proportion to the titled gentlemen of France there would be a surplus instead of a deficiency in the United States Treasury. There would be as much justice and as much common sense in such a procedure as the present income-tax law.

UNDEB the provisions of the McKinley law the manufacture of tin-plate got a start. The Democratic press were unanimous in their opinion that tin-plate could not be manufactured in this country, and rediculed every plant that was established. The Democratic newspapers and stump speakers all vehemently asserted that they were erected for campaign purposes. They simply lied about the whole business. There are now 156 tin-plate mills in operation or under construction in the United States, and 58 more are projected. The Democratic records show the aggregate output of the mills to be 30,000 boxes each per annum. When the projected mills are completed the total annual output will reach 6,525,000 boxes, or enough to supply the home market. This is a result of Republican protection, and it is a result achieved in spite of Democratic falsehoods and sneering predictions of failure.

THE Supreme Court was not divided on party lines on the income tax decision. On the question of the constitutionality of the taxation of incomes from State and municipal bonds, the Court was unanimously in the negative. On the question of the taxation of rents, the Court stood as follows: Affirming the law, Justices Harlan and White, one Republican and one Democrat. Against the law, Chief Justice Fuller, Justices Field, Gray, Brown, Brawer and Shiras, two Democrats and four Republicans. On the general question of the constitutionality of the law, the Court was divided as follows: For the law, Justices Harlan, Brewer, Brown and White, three Republicans and one Democrat. Against the law, Chief Justice Fuller, Justices Field, Gray and Shiras, two Democrats and two Republicans. There were eight members of the Court present. Of these Fuller, Field and White are Democrats, and Harlan, Gray, Brewer, Brown and Shiras are Republicans, One Justice was absent, Jaekson, a Democrat. Politically the Court stands five Republicans to four Demo' crats.

COST OF FIRE INSURANCE.

George U. Crocker has an article in the North American Review for April which is calculated to open the eyes of some people as to the profits of fire insurance companies, all of which comes out of the pockets of the public. In Ihe course of the article he says:

The whole business of fire insurance is conducted to-day by. insurance brokers and agents. What is their interest? It will be said that if they are honest and faithful, as it is admitted they are, they will serve the best interests of the companies which they represent. They will not take too many risks in one place or too near together. They will not, unless they get extraordinary rates, take risks which they deem to be extra hazardous, and they will see that the money collected for premiums reaches its proper destination. They will also see that losses are justly and honestly adjusted. All of this may be admitted, but what business is it of the insurance man to look after the profits

of the companies which he represents what business is it of his whether the public pays twice as much for fires as the actual fire damage? If the rates are high, the company which the insurance man represents gets more money and he gets a larger income, because his compensation is calculated as a percentage on premiums. As to the public he Joes his duty when he charges the regular rates and no more, the said rates having been fixed by himself and his colleagues on his local board of underwriters. To-day we find that the amount of premiums paid into insurance companies is dmiblc the amount paid out by them for fire loss. In twenty years in Massachusetts the people have paid to the companies 8148.000,000 for protection against loss by fire, while only §77,000,000 has been paid back again to the people in payment of fire losses. In other words, the drain on the community on account of fire has been twice as great as the fire loss. That is to say, the aggregate loss to the community has been twice as great as if no insurance company existed. This means that the cost of distributing the fire loss has been as great as the loss itself. In other words, the cost of taking care of and distributing the insurance fund which is paid in by the public, bears nearly as great a ratio to the total of the fund as the running expenses of a railroad bears to its gross receipts.

THE way to avoid the income tax is to invest your money in United States, State, county or municipal bonds, or in real estate, or become connected with a mutual insurance company, either fire, life or marine. If you want to pay the tax connect yourself with some productive industry that gives employment to men and women and you have the opportunity. A Democrat hates a productive industry worse than the devil hates holy water.

SENATOR HILL proposes to be the early bird and catch the worm. He has annourced that he will on the first day of the next session introduce a bill in the Senate for the repeal of the in-come-tax law. A good many Democrats are in sympathy with Senator Hill in his opposition to the act. They feel that it is class legislation of the most offensive kind.

ENGLEWOOD.

Mrs. Frank Skaggs has been quite sick, but is getting almost well again. S. T. Gott, of Brown's Valley, was here this week transacting some business.

Mr. Beck, living in this neighborhood, has been having his dwelling house repainted.

Brought into Court on a Stretcher.

VALPARAISO, Ind., April 11.—George Schwarzkopf, who was indicted by the March grand jury for embezzling $14,000 while city treasurer, was brought into court on a stretcher carried by four men. Judge Gillett asked for a physician's oertificate showing he was too sick for trial, but none could be obtained. The attorneys for the state, fearing the sick dodge would be successfully worked, asked for a continuance, which was granted.

Husband Accused or Murder. CROWN POINT, Ind., April 11.—Mrs. Barney" Jillwanger died Wednesday and the coroner's jury decided Otto EUwanger, her husband, had killed lier. Two of the Delazen boys, of Chicago, brothers of the dead woman, who came down to attend the inquest, were ordered locked up. There is a suspicion that the murder of the woman was a gigantic conspiracy.

Two Five-Story Buildings in Wheeling, W. Va., Crumble to Pieces.

Many Men Buried in the Ruins— Six Are Killed, and as Many More Injured.

Twenty-Three Men Lost Their Lives in the Mine Explosion at Whatcom, Wash.

Railway Disasters at Various Points Are Responsible for a Number of Deaths.

WHEELING, W. Va., April 10.—At 3:20 o'clock Tuesday morning one of the most fearful disasters in the history of Wheeling occurred. Two of the handsomest buildings in the city fell in with scarcely a moment's warning, burying a dozen men within the ruins. The structures were each five stories high and were occupied by T. T. Hutchison & Co., wholesale dealers in leather and hardware and W. H. Chapman & Sons, dealers in painters' and builders' supplies. The Chapman building was commenced last fall and was nearing completion when the accident occurred. The two buildings are adjoining. the Hutchisson being on the corner of Alley 9 and Main street.

An Awful Crash,

At the hour mentioned the employes heard an ominous crackling, the big structure gave a convulsive tremble and with a crash the south wall fell, tearing down the flooring and structural work. At the same time G. W. Clifton, a carpenter at work in Chapman's, noticed the sand falling out of the wall separating the two buildings. He immediately gave the alarm and started for the door. Before he had reached it bricks and mortar were falling down in showers, and just ashv. got outside the crash came. William H. Chapman, Walter Chapman and Newton Wilson, the proprietors, also escaped without injury other than being bruised by the falling bricks.

Fire Adds to the Horror.

The ruins caught fire and before the fire department arrived were giving rise to a dense, blinding smoke, which made the work of rescuing very difficult.

Blinded and suffocated by the dense smoke, the firemen worked like trojans, and in about two hours the first victim was rescued. It was M. J. Ford, who was comparatively uninjured, while he was lying directly across Benjamin Pritchard. Pritchard was cold in death, and a medical examination showed that he had been killed by being crushed about the chest. No more bodies were found until 6:3C o'clock in the evening, when Father Parke's body was taken out of the debris so horribly crushed that it was was scarcely recognizable. In the meantime the fire had gained so that the firemen had to give their entire attention to subduing it. After twelve hours' hard work they got the flames nnder control.

Dead and Aliasing.

At noon the following men had been taken out dead, or are known to be lost:

Father F. H. Park, vioar general W. S. Pritchard, merchant, Buckhannon, W. Va. Eugeno Burke, an employe of Hutohlsson & Co. Rober Wincher, boy, employed by Hutchisson & Co. Harry Cowl, Western Union messenger Miohael Horan.

The injured are: T. T. Hutchisson, senior member of Hutohlsson & Co., one rib broken and internal injuries will probably recov er: O. B. Williams, carpenter, severe cuts on the head, not serious G. W. Clifton, carpenter, severe cuts on head, not serious M. J. Ford, salesman, hip broken Charles Haller, .bookkeeper, and H. Blum escaped unhurt. ...

Cause of Accident.

The cause of the accident wias the defective construction of the HutchisBon building which was weakened a year or so ago by the addition of two Btorles.

Both buildings, together with the stock, are a total loss. A more complete wiping out of what were once handsome structures could not be imagined. When the first wall fell it broke off clear down to the foundation and not one stone was left upon another. The Chapman building was new and in fact not yet finished, so the loss will fall on the contractors. A building across the alley occupied by S. M. Rice & Co., wholesale millinery dealers, was struck by the falling wall and a big hole knocked in the side. The building next to that was also badly sprained and fears are entertained for its safety. Altogether the loss will amount to over 8200,000. The insurance cannot yet be ascertained.

Father Parke, who was the oldest Catholic priest in the state, and vicar general of West Virginia, was not in either of the buildings, but was walking up the alley when the deplorable affair occurred. Harry Cowl, the messenger boy, was also killed in the alley while returning from a call.

TWKNTy-THREE

DEAD.

Two Men Alone Survive a Terrific Mine Explosion In WanhlngtOQ State. SEATTLE, Wash., April 10. Special dispatches to the Postrlntelligencer have been received here from Whatcom, WaBh., giving full particulars of the disaster at Blue Canyon mine in which twenty-three miners lost their lives. The corpses were all recovered and are lying in a blacksmith shop near the tunnel of the mine. Only two men who were in the mine when the explosion occurred escaped death.

Lilt of Dead.

The killed: Mine Superintendent.' David Y. Jones, An

drew Anderson, James McAndrews, James Kirkley, Kirk Cllnslte. Charles Silverman, C. Ramsburg, William Listor, Samuel Olsen, James McNutty, J. A. Morgan, Martin M. Blum, E. T. Chase. Charles Carlson, H. Ravett, Phillip Uinkle, William Evans, J. Williams, Alexander Hendrickson, Ben Morgan, George Roberts, Thomas Coniin, Luons Lotaka. ..

Deadly ire Damp.

The explosion occurred shortly before 3 o'clock, when the shift would have been changed, and the miners were already climbing the steep hill to take the places of the men killed. This disaster was undoubtedly caused by an accumulation of firedamp, which was exploded by a blast in the breast of the gangway. The faces of the men who were working in the breast are badly burned, but a majority of those who were working in the rooms off the gangway were only slightty disfigured

the

fire and many not at all. Physicians and miners say that the men working in the breast must have been killed by the shock of the explosion, while the others succumbed to the fire damp as they slid down from the rooms to the gangway, then filled with deadly gas.

Flanged Into the River.

BRADFORD, Pa., April 10.—A westbound freight train on the Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburgh railroad, while running at a moderate rate of speed near Sykes, a small station between Dubois and Puuxsutawney, Tuesday morning ran into a washout. The tracks run alongside of the Clarion river at this point for some distance. The fog was so dense that Engineer Taylor did not see the washout until he ran into it. The entire train was dumped into the raging torrent. Three men were buried under the wreck and killed. They were Engineer Taylor, Fireman Shea and Conductor Bruce.

Other Mishaps.

SCRAXTON, Pa., April 10.—An Ontario & Western coal train was thrown from the track at Jermyn Tuesday morning by reason of the tracks being undermined by a flood of water from Rush Brook creek. A large number of cars were piled up in the wreck. A brakeman of the name of Farrell, from Carbondale, was killed.

SHERBROOKE, Que.. April 10.—Monday night's south-bound Boston train was wrecked half a mile north of Smith's Mills station at a spot known as "The Cut." The

eDgine

was thrown down the

embankment,but the baggage cars and coaches kept the track. Engineer Roney and Fireman Emerson were taken out from under their engine, both dead. The accident was caused by a large bowlder which had become dislodged by the rain and fell on the track. There were a large number of passengers aboard the train, but beyond a severe shock they sustained

injury. DEATH OF DEMOREST.

Prohibition Party Leader Passes Away in New York City. NEW \ORK, April 10. VV. Jennings Demorest, one of the founders of the prohibition party and the principal rival of Gen. John Bidwell, of California, for the prohibition nomination for president of the United States in 1892, died Tuesday after a week's illness. From the inception of the prohibition party he has been one of the best-known men in it, and his wife ia nearly, if not quite, as widely known under the name of "Mine." Demorest for her articles on fashions and for her patterns and fashion plates. She looks after that department of Demorest'a Monthly Magazine, of which her husband was editor. But it was as a prohibition party leader that he was best known.

In 1885 he ran for lieutenant governor of New York on the prohibition ticket and polled a larger vote than any of his associates. He claimed that he was a reformer rather than a politician, and took an active interest in all publio matters, being a particularly steady and consistent opponent of Tammany hall.

Found No Assets.

PITTSBURGA, Pa., April 10.—The expert accountant who has been engaged on the books of George M. Irwin, of discretionary pool fame, has found no assets. This statement was made by a gentleman connected with the case. Irwin, who had about 10,000 customers for whom he speculated, failed some time ago and a receiver was appointed to take charge of his books.

Depositor!! Must Waif.

BLADEN, Neb., April 10.—The Hank of Bladen was closed Tuesday morning by Bank Examiner Cline. The assets comprise bills receivable to the amount of &13,911 and cash and sight exchange to the amount of $2,754. The liabilities are: Due to depositors, 810,024 due to other banks, $956. There is some prospect of depositors being paid, but it will take time.

Fatally Shot by a Girl.

MOUNT VERNON, 111., April 10.—Miss" Martha Davis, aged 18, shot John Ellis Tuesday, the ball passing through his body about 3 inches below the heart. The Davis girl alleges that she had been wronged by Ellis and failing to get redress through the courts she avenged herself by attempting to kill her betrayer. He will die.

American Yacht Vigilant Launched. SOUTHAMPTON, April 10.—The American yacht Vigilant was successfully launched at 10:40 o'clock Tuesday morning. United States Consul Kink head and other prominent Americans were on board. The wharves along the water front were crowded with spectators.

Events in Various Portions ol Indiana Told by Wire.

Poor Inducement*.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind., April 11.— Recent articles printed in newspapers telling of profitable fields in Guatemala for American emigrants induced the formation of an In lianapolis colony whose purpose it was to emigrate to that country. This colony was to consist of 150 men. Among its members was J. Conrad Bray, who wrote to P. M. B. Young, the American minister at Guatemala, asking for information regarding the flat? Ting inducements that have been ottered emigrants. Mr. Young writes that the country offers but poor inducements to emigrants. The proposed colony will be abandoned.

Pleads Not- Guilty.

WABASII, Ind., April 11. Justice Ridgeley, of North Manchester, fixed the bond of Prof. C. E. Kreibel, of North Manchester million-dollar endowment fame, at SI,000. Kreibel, after being placed under arrest, asked permission to drive through Manchester alone and it was granted him. Kreibel pleaded not guilty on the preliminary trial and denied all fraudulent intentions in securing the college bonds of the citizens and renewed his promise to obtain the endowment.
