It Is Giving Satisfaction, While. Prohibition Is Unsatisfactory. Ernest IL Crosby, in Public Opinion. The recent progress of high license an curs well for its future. The annual feo for the general sale of intoxicating liquors is $500 or more in eight Mates, viz.: Arkansas. Ill inois. Massachusetts. Michigan. Minnesota. Missouri, Nebraska and Pennsylvania, and in three lerntones. which are about to be come States, viz.: Dakota, Montana and Washington. Nebraska adopted the system in 1881; Arkansas. Illinois and Missouri in 1883; Massachnsetts in 1S88, and the other six commonwealths in 1887. Before 1881 a fee ot fcoOO or more was unknown. In 18S3 Jew Jersey also made a marked increase in the sale of its license fees, and in 1SS7 the excise commissioners'of the citvof Now York rai3ed the amount materially under the existing law. All these changes have given satisfaction to temperance peonle. Only in Nebraska and Pennsylvania is a further change to prohibition thought of, and in the latter it will doubtless be de feated. The rapid advance of the principlo oi nign license, as snown ny inis resume. certainly given promise or. its general acceptance. Prohibition has no sueh record. It was first tried in Maine, in 1851, and, with the exception of the years ISoO and 1S57, has prevailed there ever since. Vermont has been a prohibition State since 1H52, and New Hampshire passed a prohibition law in 1855. The experience of these States v i i . m eviaentiy iaueu 10 encourage oiners to follow in their footsteps. From 18.Vi to 1880 no State adoDted a prohibition law and preserved it unrepealed.

The State of New York affords a fair ex ample of the respective strength of pro hibition and high license in a community it polled oulv 41.S'iO votes, and in 18S8 there was a larco falliuc oil'. High license was not seriously pushed untii 1S87. The Re publican party became at onco committed to it, and in tue election of 1S8S it was the State issue. The result was that high license, in tno pi rson of Mr. W amcr Miller, received bJl,293 votes, and the Uemocratu candidate received only 19.171 more.

Careful and diliccnt investigation thus far made show no lives lost. While tho llanies were raging a man was soen carrying lire-brands across the alley between Third and South Fourth 6trects. He was setting tiro to a house that had escaped the flames. When a special policeman commenced shooting at him, to avoid the shots ho darted into the house he had fired, and never came out alive. While the Occidental Hotel was burning, officer James Campbell saw a man trying to get into the rnget bound ratiouai Bank bv the back entrance. He ordered him to stop, when the man drew a revolver. and the otneer bred three shots at him ana brought him to a stand-still. 6ixty-three safes were counted in the ruins to-day.

The above is not one-half of the losses, and no attempt has been made in this list to estimate the large number of losses incurred by the occupants of the tipper stories of the buildings. Many large libraries of professional men and valuable oflice fixtures were destroyed. The loss in this line alone will reach $1,000,000. Figures on the losses and insurance are all largely guesswork. Estimates of loss on local business range all tho way from $7,000,000 to $10,000,000. A San Francisco dispatch says: 'The insurance summary telegraphed last night represents a total of risks in the burned district of Seattle. This includes a total of 1,904.000 held by companies represented in San Francisoo. Of this amount the local San Francisco companies held risks aggregating S2S3.000, the remainder being represented in Eastern and foreign companies. In addition to this total, six Oregon companies held risks aggregating 250,000, and fifty small Washington Territory, Dakota and Iowa companies had risks aggregating $150,000, but detailed losses cannot be ascertained. This makes an aggregate of $2,801,000. Forty insurance adjusters left for Seattle to-night, and stated that tho losses of their companies represented in San Francisco would be paid in full by sight drafts." Ilosser Again Loses Control of Ills Mouth. Staunton', Va.. Jnne 8. Gen. Thomas L. Rosser delivered acharacteristic and bitter 6peech before the Confederate Memorial Association to-day. Ho spoke of nations erecting monuments to their heroic dead. He said the dillerence between Northern and Southern monuments was that in tho South they were erected over graves to virtue and patriotism, and in tho North, in cities, by Pharisaical Yankees to enhance real estate over the graves of bounty - jumpers and hirelings and empty graves; and they expected God Almighty and the angel Gabriel, to resurrect their lies. Southern soldiers fought for tho rights of States, and the integrity of homes; tor virtue and patriotism; the Northern man for self, plunder and pay. In lb;i the integrity of tho Southern States was in danger. They withdrew from the corrosive influences to soenro peace and prosperity. 4The Southern people are Saron, the Northern people Celt." said General Kosser. 'T chuckle over the results arising from socialism and anarchism iu the North, from which wo are free. It has been said we are the 6amo people, but that was a long time ago. Now, evolution, or some process, has made us different creatures, and soon capital and oppressed manhood will flee to tho South, where honest men can protect them. I Applause.) Tho world will see that rebels are the only true fiatriots and supporters of constitutional iberty. I approve all the Southern Confederacy did. It destroyed evil forces and re-established good ones. Its monuments aro to truth, patriotism and glory uot brazen images resulting from blemished hearts and conduct. The North has abandoned tho race they ?mancipated except their votes. NoGreelj .Whittiers, Beechers, or John Browns write, or preach or die for them. They are abandoned by tho puri
tanical Yankee who wants to correct God s mistakes, and place the inferior over the sulerior. Longafter the brazen images in Washingon and elsewhere have been thrown down, and the G. A. R. (so called). Sherman, Forrker, Ingalls and such like shall bo with the rubbish of tho French revolution, assigned to obscurity, the names of Leo and Jackson will be bright and glorious." Minister Egan Not Recalled. Special to tho Indianapolis Journal. t Washington, June 8. A telegram from New Yorkt published in papers in this vicinity this morning, announced in more or less positive language, according to the ideas of the writer, that Patrick gan, of Nebraska, the newly appointed minister to Chili, had been recalled on account of the manner in which hisname hasbeen handled during the Cronin investigation iu Chicago. The paragraph caused moro or less comment throughout the city, and there Avas an early rush to the White House and State Department to ascertain what truth there was in the story. At tho White House information was to tho ellect that nothing whatever was known in the matter, aud at the State Department Mr. Walker Blaine was outspoken in his dedenunciation of the- rumor. Mr. Blaino said the story was absolutely unfounded; that the department had never had its official attention called to the connection of
Lgan's name with the Cronin case, and that the department had never for a moment thought of recalling Mr. Egan. Mr. Blaine added that as the new minister to Chili is only half way on his journey, it would be absurd to send a cablegram to him in any event at the present time. Flood Damages In Illinois. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Monticlix), HI.. June 8. The worst rain8tomi that has visited this county for many years set in last night and lasted until today. All streams are oversowing. Tho Sangamon river is out of its banks,! rising one foot per hour and sweeping everything before it. In the bottoms there are hundreds of acres of corn, wheat and oats under water in central Illinois, and much will be destroyed. During the storm lightning struck a farm-house on the farm of Hon. S. W. Allerton, of Chicago, and tore it to pieees, stunning several persons badly. Special to l.'ie Imlianapolls Journal. Mahmiail, June 8. There was an unusually heavy rain-fail here, last nltf:t and to-day, and all tho creek bottoms are flooded. Several sawmills have been swept away, miles of fencing destroyed, bridges washed out by the 6core, and, in many places," whole fields of wheat badly injured. The Wabash river is rising rapidly, and is already oat of its banks. The dainago to crops, fencing and houses will be great Wrecked Oft the FIJI Islands. San Francisco, Jnne 8. Mail advices from Auckland give the particulars of the loss of the steel sltfp Altmore, bound from Sydney to San Francisco. Tho ship struck a reef oil' Fiji island on the night of April 22. The boat's crew attempted to make a landing on the shore, but were prevented by tho natives.
