Word was received here lat niht of the death of Issue I'usey liray, minister to ÄloMCo, The telegrams .vny ho arrived at that eity yesterday morninj; in an unconscious condition from an attack of double pneumonia. He was taken to the American hospital, and his condition pronounced extremely alarming from the beginning. His son Vierrc Urav received a telegram in forming him of hi' father's ill ne. ami last night received a later telegram announcing the death. Minister t?ray had been to this city. having been called home on account of the serious illness of his son Pierre, who has been sick for nearly a year. From here he went to Washington, when he received some instructions from the department of state, and left lat week for the City of Mexico. Jhuw I'ltt-y Crag. Isaac Pusey dray was lorn in Chester county. Pa.. October IS. 1S2S. His ancestors were all (Junkers. In l?3rt his rareutti moved to Urbana, ()., and afterwards to Darke county, where both died. In 1S35 he moved to Union -City, Ind. He was colonel of the Fourth Indian:t cavalry during the civil war. In 1HC0 he was a candidate for the nomination for congress on the republican ticket and was defeated in the primaries by (Seorge V. Julian. In 1S0S he was elected to the state senate, and remained a member "f that body for four years. In 1S70 he was tendered the consulate at St. Thomas, in the Ve.st ludies, but declined the position. He was a delegate-at-large to the liberal republican convention that met in Cincinnati in 1ST2. and was appointed by the convention member for Indiana of the national committee. His name was placed before the democratic state convention in 1ST.' for congressman-at-large, and in 1S74 for, attorney general, but was both times withdrawn at his request, In STO he was chosen by acclamation by the democratic convention for lieutenant-governor, and ran with James 1). Williams, familiarly known as "IHue Jeans" Williams, and was elected with the latter, who defeated ISenjamin Harrison for governor in that year. Upon the death of Gor. Williams, Gray became governor. In ISsOhewas again nominated for the same position, hut was defeated at the polls. In that year with Frank Lander he was defeated by Porter and Hanna on the republican ticket. In 1S3I- Gray received two-thirds of the delegates' votes in the democratic ttate convention for governor, and made the race against ex-Congres-sman Calkins. In that year his plurality in the state was ?,:ii)2, while that of Cleveland was but 0,571. In 1SS0. when he was defeated with Landers, he was beaten by only 4,770, -while Landers was defeated by a plurality of (5.95:1. Since the expiration of his term of ofiice in 1SS8 he has been the recognized Ic-dexof the democratic party in this state, and in 1592 was prominently mentioned in connection with the gubernational noininationof the party, hut his name was not presented to the convention. In that year he was spoken of by members of his party in this state as a possible candidate for the presidency, but went to SU Louis as an avowed candidate for the vice-presidency. In 1892 lie was again mentioned in connection with the presidency, and two factions in the party were worked tip on account of this. One was the Cleveland and the other the Gray faction. The war between the factions was very bitter for a time, but. before the meeting of the convention Gray had become an avowed candidate for the tail of the ticket, and his friends sought only this honor for him in the convention. After the election of Cleveland it was conceded that Gray would receive some good foreign mission or other rich plum in the power of the president to bestow. He was appointed minister to Mexico and immediately left for the City of Mexico to take the position and has been back to this city, his home, twice tince his appointment. SOMETHING CROOKED.

Caki.yi.k, III., Feb. l.V The excite went over the disclosures concerning the affairs of the late Kufus X. Uamsay couth. ties unabated. The full meaning of the collapse and a realization of its ruinous results upon this community is just now beginning to have its effect on the people. Although for the time being there are no new developments in the case, its dotails are being discussed and thoroughly gone over by everyone. Klijah Uamsay, tl- son of the dead treasurer, arrived laat night in Carlyle from Springfield, but is carefully keeping his mouth shut. Instead of being one of the most favorably known young men in town, he is being eyed askance bv the deoositors whom his father's villainy has robbed of everything, for they know full well how much the son and "ex-state treasurer" knew. There are those who find some palliation for him in that he was his father's son and youug. but when lives and fortunes havelwen wrecked by his partial instrumentality, youthful though lie be, there is not much room left for sentimental sympathy. The position of Gov. Altgeld in this matter, and of course that of Private Secretary Dose, who seems to have done for thj governor what little talking has been deemed necessary, is freely commented upon and in no very complimentary manner. Dose's statement that he was willing to take oath that the accounts of young Klijah llamsey as state treasurer when he turned over the department to Treasurer Wulff were jwrfeetly correct is laughed at as a monumental piece of bin if. Of course the accounts were all right when the young man went out of ofiice. This had been printed in big. bold letters in tlie newspapers, and the people of Carlyle knew it. .Mr. Doe's asseveration of this fact is con sidered liere as entirely unnecessary to add strength to the statement, and as being made only to hide the course of the governor in appointing a heardless boy a nominal custodian of the state's funds, while a syndicate of Chicago banks were in reality serving in this capacity. The sentiment of the whole com munity is one of utter condemnation of the practices which have been allowed iu connect!' with the people's money. It is belt-red here that this peddling of stato funds has been going on for year.i and that Uamsay merely happens to iiave been the one who played it n little too strong it an unfortunate time. His actions are thereby not excused in any measure. but the sentiment goes further, and calls for an investigation into these modern methods of finance and n consequent stoppage of such practices. The difficulties in the way are be lieved to be many, and in substantiation of this is cited the pressure brought to bear on all sides to prevent trfe facts ahout the shortage getting into the public prints. Itisargued that this shows how great the influence which was exerted by the members of both political parties, who were cognizant of the manner in which things were being run. The gagging of everything save the tongue of gossip is n tremendous task in n matter nvolving so much money and disclos ing such rottenness, and the fact that this was successfully accomplished for so long a time makes the people chary of hoping for a full and impartial in vestigation, which may redound to their benefit, even though it does not succeed in punishing those who in the past have been guilty of the irregularities. Owing to the terribly-involved con dition of the Itamsay estate, and to the refusal of those having it in charge to make the desired explanations, and also to Henry belters indisposition to discuss his connection with the dead banker, there are many things that are not fully understood, but the people hope with Mr. Seiter that time will yet bring out the whole truth. Among the things about which sOme of them are puzzling their heads is the report of the commercial agents whoso province it is to accurately - determine the financial condition of business con cerns, upon Itufus Kamsay. In 1S92 Ruf us Ramsay was rated in Dun's as being worth from S12.'.000 to to 5200,000, with credit "high." At that time Ramsay was at least 3100,000 worse off than nothing, and how the employes of this concern happened to miss the mark so widely finds plenty of comment. Ramsey seems not only to have had the faculty of making the poor people believe he was rolling in wealth, but of also fooling men presumably trainud to And the true inwardness of alleged accumulations of wealth. Augustus Schafly, the head of the banking house of Schnlly Bros., In Car lyle, points to this rating in wonder went and Bhakes his head. Anxiety Felt for the llrltlth Steamer ftatlaImrjr.

A terrible mine explosion occurred at the Odin coal mine, 15 miles east of this eity, Friday. The force of the concussion was felt throughout town. It was followed by a deufening report. Thu engineer at the mine hud gone Home to dinner when the explosion occurred, and it was half an hour before any aid could lie sent to tho200 miners entombed in the bowels of the earth, immediately after the explosion the mine caught tire ami smoke rolled out from the shaft as if issuing from a huge smokestack. The residents of the town had been apprised of what had occurred, and soon the wives, daughters, mothers, brothers and fathers of the miners began to congregate about the shaft of the mine. Still no engineer came. The women became frantic, many fainting on the spot. In the meantime the men below were nearly suffocated with smoke, and it was decidedly a great relief to them to see the cage move on its upward trip. One hundred and seventy of the men were rescued by the citizens anil the miners fellow-workmen at the peril of their lives. The fire still continued un abated, and the remaining thirty men in the mine were given up for lost. These men were almost dying from suffocation in the bottom of the- mine, but by a special act of Providence it seems the fire died out. A searching party was sent immedi ately to the bottom. There they found the miners lying here and there unconscious and nearly dead. They were piled up like eordwood on the cages and quickly as possible raised to the top of the shaft, where they slowly regained consciousness. The cause of the accident was a pre mature blast in a room in the mine being worked by Luther Weingartner. The blast ignited a twenty-five-pound keg of powder, which exploded with terrific c tTcct. The mine in the Imme diate vicinity was torn up in a terrible manner, ami the twenty-five miners working in the same room certainly had a miraculous escape from death. A relief train from Centralia carried several surgeons. It will bo several days before the mine can resume operations. Thirty miners were injured in all. Those most seriously hurt are: Luther Weingartner, burnt about head and face; has a large family: can not live. John Tadlock and son are Itoth burnt about the head and body; little hopes of recovery; ho also has a large family. John Link, aged 13 years, severely burnt about body; will probably recover. Albert Little, aged 17 years, nearly suffocated and badly burned; will recover. James Smith, single, aged 2.', burned about face and hands; recovery doubt ful. Rodman Eubanks, aged 2."i, married. badlv burned: mav recover. Albert Jacobs, aged 24, married, seriously burned and may not recover. An unknown man, aged .10 years, and another one, aged about li, are also fatally burned and can not live. This Is as full a list of the injured as could be secured. It is feared some have per ished in the mine. BEATS MARDI GRAS. A Snow Carnival In ew Orleans The lleatlett Kuli In Korty-Klv Vinn. New Oiuxans, Feb. 10. Not since the winter of lS.IQ have such sights been witnessed as those seen in this city Thursday evening. From 11 a. in. the snow had wen falling heavily, and as the foundation was good it formed over eight inches deep in the city streets, with drifts much deeper in the outskirts. lty evening all the electric-car lines were blocked, and most of the other routes, forcing business men in many instances to trudge home miles through the deep snow. On Canal street and the main thoroughfares a snowball carnival was in progress all day, and hotels, club and store windows were full of sightseekers taking in the unwonted spectacle. Improvised sleighs hastily put together on boards ran the gauntlet of a snow fusillade as they passed the cheering, shouting crowds.

1 HE TARIFF IS A TAX.

t'rleea Dorllnril Winn lntle Drrllnnl Tin Umritt of letter l'rlve Alreuily Aji.irtml. If there are any republicans left (exepting Gov, McKinley, whoso ease is hojHless.) who are such chump that they still think that "the taritr Is not a tax, but if it is a tax the foreigner pays it," he should read what the Oil, Paint and Drug Reporter of January 7. 1SU5. says about prices and tariiK It should be understood that freo competition is almost unknown in tho jhemieal and drug industries. Trusts, combines ami pools restrict production in nearly all of the more important articles. Four large manufacturers practically sell from the same price lists. These lists mention f00 or 00 articles. New lists are issued monthly. The five or six smaller manufacturers who make certain articles on these lists join with the "big four" in sustaining prices. Prices are kept tit the point of greatest profit to manufacturers. If there is an import duty on an article (as there usually island manufacturers can increase their piofitsby taking advantage of the duty (as they usually can) they do so. Hence, prices of most articles are kept at or near the importing point, even when our manufacturers can (and often dot sell their prodnets in foreign markets at much lower prices. If, then, duties are reduced prices of man' articles must bo reduced to prevent importation. Reviewing "the past year in drugs," the Reporter says: "The feature of the vear was un doubtedly the speculation in opium. ! due to the possibility of SI per pound ! duty being placed upon the drug by congress. J lie price was advanced t Cl 'Iii in i'ic -I.i ,,i, fi .' I t r tlw middle of February, under buyinirior i speculation and consumption, but a deline soon set in, and in July 51.'5 was reached. "Acid, boracic, dropped from 13 cents to 10 cents, competition and a reduction in the duty of 2 cents per pound being tie causes. "Acid, citric, dropped from 14 1 cents to 3t'2 cents in barrels, foreign having been steadily offered at lower prices. The duty was reduced from 10 cents per pound to 2."i per cent. "Alcohol has been one of the most interesting studies in the market. The year opened at SV.OG net. though sales were made at about 82.01 net by the independents. At the elo-e S2. si was the net quotation. The general tendency has been upward, owing in some measure to the higher prices of corn. but principally to the advance in the internal reveuue tax from 90 cents per proof gallon to SI. 10. "Castor oil is 4' cents lower, a change in the tariff causing makers to drop the price 4 cents the day the law came into operation. "Chloral, hydrate, is 25 cents lower. due to a tariff reduction. "Camphor is off S cents, partly owing to the duty having been reduced, and iu part to competition with foreign. especially the German. Reviewing "heavy chemicals during 1691." the Reporter says: "There has been a steady decline in values since the year opened, except for alkali, .which, at the close, is a shade higher. "Caustic soda has attracted considerable attention, more particularly since the change in the duty of one-half what it was under the old tariff. The year opened with prices for both do mestic and foreign at 2lV to2 cents, as to test, at which they remained, with comparatively few fluctuations, until thu new tariff went into operation, when the leading domestic makers reduced their price to conform with the reduction in the duty, not only upon the regular contracts, but also made a reduction upon the goods unused iu consumers' hands. The result of this liberal policy soon made itself felt in the large volume of orders received, not only for prompt delivery, but over the coming year as well. Competition at once began with foreign makers, and prices quickly declined, until the low price of Vt cents was reported as having been accepted for several contracts of high test, though ljf cents was the general price nt which the bulk of the contracts were placed. While prices in this country, owing to the competition, were very much unsettled, the foreign markets thowed no decline, except on goods for this country. The chief maki.r of caustic soda in this country exported several lots to the other side, where better prices could be obtained than in this market. With the arrival of these lots of American goods in Liverpool a halt was called in the warfare which was waging and after several conferences between the representatives of the foreign and domestic manufacturers, prices were adjusted on the basis of 2 cents for future contracts and a slight advance above this figure for jobbing parcels, at which price the year closed"Prcvious to tho reduction in the duty very little foreign bicarbonate of soda came into this country, thus giving tho domestic manufacturers a monopoly of this article. This, however, was all changed when the new duty of 4 cent per pound against 1 cent under the old tariff, went into effect, thus enabling large sales to bo tnadoof foreign makes at prices ranging from IS P to 1J centa per pouud, according to the quantity, make and date of delivery. Thu domestic makers promptly met this by reducing the prico for their ordinary brands, while still maintaining their original price for their special brands. "The receipts of foreign sal nods during the first half year showed a decided falling off, though prices were fairly well maintained at about S.V100 cent per pound, but with the reduction of the duty, prices receded, thus stimulating what had previously been a slow trade. Supplies began to flow in, and in order to retain their trade prices were reduced, nnd at the close to 03-100 cent may bo called the prevailing quotation. "It is claitne 1 that of all tho hoavy chemicals the most unsatisfactory has been nalt cake. In order to meet the foreign competition that was expected to follow thu ulacing of this article on

tho free list, domestic manufacturerrevised their price list early in thu season, and large sales were made in bulk, delivered at various points nt prices ranging from 10 to 45-100 cent per pound, ns to place of delivery, which certainly did not result in a very large margin of profit to the makers, for the reason that the price of muriatic acid was low, even though they curtailed their output of this article to a large extent." NEW CANAL SCHEME. Let a Free Cnnitl lit- I'mirliril Through tat New York Ciutom Hone. Many leading republicans believe that our government should invest $100.000,000 in the Nicaragua canal. They say that it would shorten the distance by steamers from New York to Hong ICong by 4,103 miles; to Yokohama by 0,Si7 miles; to Melbourne by 3,'JOJ .Hilles; to Valparaiso by S.IW2 miles. They estimate that at least 3,.100.000 tons of freight would pass through the canal each year ami that if Si per ton toll were charged all expenses of operating the canal would be met. The benefits to commerce, they say, would be incalculable. The cost of transportation would be greatly reduced and both sides of the world would be greatly benefited by cheaper goods. All of which may be true. Hut is not this Inconsistent argument for protectionists? Why levy a SI 00.00 J.000 tax on our already tax-ridden people to remove one barrier to commerce when a much greater barrier can be removed by an act that shall at the same time greatly reduce our tax burden. The

wholo benefits to the people to come from the Nicaragua canal will be derived from cheaper products or goods. Hut it coits more to get goods across a Melvinley tariff wall than it does to carry them twice around South America. Woolen, linen, silk or eotton goods could be carried several times around the world for what it ests to get them through a Melvinley custom house. If the republicans, when they were making the McKinley tarilT law, had added the word "free" after every article, instead of the complex and compound tlu ties levied on most important articles they would have conferred greater benefits upon their country than would be realized by t'.ie digging of a dozen Nicaragua canals. They could have done this in less time and at levs expense than it required to make the MeKinley bill. It would co-.t nothing, and save hundreds of millions of dollars every year, to punch a free canal through the New York custom house. ' On the contrary, of what benefit would be a Niearaguan canal if our tariff wall should be built higher? Yes, following their logic, this is exactly what republicans would do. "Hecause the Nicaragua canal," they would say, "has lowered the cost of bringing the products of Asia and Australia to our shores, it is necessary, to preserve our workmen from competition with the pauper labor of tho Orient, to increase duties on all such products." L'p would go the tariff wall. A 2.1 per cent, advance in duties would more than counteract the effect of the Nicaragua canal upon prices. It may be consistent for free traders to advocate governmental aid to canals. It certainly is inconsistent for protectionists to faor canals to cheapen tho cost of goods and protective tar iff to increase the cost of goods. Hy.hon W. Holt. RELATIONS WITH GERMANY Wlmt Sniiill-ltnro Kepiililli-an I'ollt Iclmu In tin- Si-iiatc ll:ie ItronRlit About. The sop thrown to the sugar trust by the republican side of the senate in the form of a discriminating duty against German sugars is a plain violation of our treaty relations with that country. A prominent senator recently said to a reporter of the Chicago Herald: "In all my experience in Washington, and it has extended through the best part of a quarter of a century, I have never seen a situation so disgraceful as that which we arc now in concerning our relations with Germany. If we had had a state of affairs like this twenty years ago there would have been but one party iu congress on the question of righting the wrong. Ii neccssarj- the senate would have held meetings at night, or the president would have called a special session of congress, in order to repeal that discriminating duty as quickly as possible. A stain like that on the national honor would have been wiped out without a dissenting voice, and men of both parties would have lecn eager to have had a hand in the process. Hut what do we find at the present moment? The republicans of this body absolutely refuse to permit thi? duty to be stricken out. They refuse to permit the question to be brought before the senate. They admit the statute violates the treaty. As good lawyers as there are on that sidemen like IMatt, of Connecticut; Sherman, of Ohio; Chandler, of New Hampshirebay there is no doubt Secretary Gresham was right in his letter to the president admitting tho discriminating duty to be a violation of our treaty obligations. "They know the humiliating position this government is placed in, and yet what do they propose to do alwut it? Nothing. And why will they do nothing? Hecause they say this violation of a treaty was perpetrated in the democratic party, and it must stand so that party may bear the responsibility and the odium of it We hare just eulogized Daniel Webster.
