To read the numerous accounts in
the daily press of horrible railroad
disasters and dreadful hotel fires by
which scores people are maimed for
life, if not killed outright, is enough to
make travel a very uninviting aud
hazardous uudert aking. The travel
ing public pray for better railroad
bridges, less car stoves and more fire
proof hotels.
IT is by no means ail enviable posi
tion to be Czar of Russia. Only last
week that distinguished person close
ly escaped being blown to atoms by a
dynamite bomb which was thrown
under his carriage in front of the pal
ace in St. Peterburg. And what is
more remarkable is that the attempt
at the monarch's life was not made by
the Nihilists but by several of the rep
resentatives of Russia's land owners.
A sign that the anti government fac
tions are becoming plenty in that
country.
THE effects of the inter-state com
merce bill on railroad management are
beginning to manifest themselves.
The passenger departments cf both the
Reading and Pennsylvania railroad
companies have announced that mile
age books have been abolished because
they could not be sold under the new
law. The reductions made in fares to
commerical travelers and theatrical
troupes will be discontinued, which
will greatly affect the large commercial
firms who have many salesmen on the
road and who will have to pay regular
fares from now on.
THE workingmen in the Pottstown
and Bethlehem iron furnaces experi
enced a pleasant surprise on Saturday
in the announcement that their wages
have been advanced. The iron compa
ny in Pottstown employ 1400 men,
of which the puddlers will receive an
increase from $3.50 $3.75 per ton, the
helpers from 31 to 29 cents a heat and
other employes in proportion.
The men of the Bethlehem iron
company get an advance of 10 per
cent, on their former wages. These
changes look like forerunners of better
times and are doubtless the result of a
purified democratic administration.
The general business of the country is
wearing a healthier appearance than it
has for years aud should no unforeseen
hindrances arise we may expect to see
business run on the smooth track of
industrial activity before the advent of
summer. True, some of the newspa
pers in the state are troubled with
visions of another panic, owing to the
failure of congress to reduce the sur
plus, but it is to be hoped that these
fears are groundless. The country
had about as much panic as it can
stand.
WHATEVER may be said against the
Knights of Labor it must be confessed
that their proposed movement to sys
tematically denounce the practice ot
land-grabbing by corporations aud com
panies. Their mode of battle says the
Patriot will be constant discussion of
the crime until it becomes so odious to
the public that those engaged in it
will be forced to give it up.
There is no doubt that this land
grabbing is one of the most serious
dangers that threatens the workingmen
of this country to-day. High wages
are maintained amoug laborers and
artisans not because of the protections
that high tariff affords,but for the rea
son that land is plenty and cheap.and
whenever workingmen are seriously
oppressed they have recourse to the
land under the homestead regulations,
and can earn by farming what has
been den ied them as laborers or me
chanics.
But the operations of the land
grabbers are seriously menacing this
means of protection. The lands have
been absorbed by corporations, alien
and local and every year adds to the
difficulties of obtaining grants by le
gitimate settlers. When the end is
reached the working men will be at
the mercy of the grasping and grinding
monopolies and be compelled to accept
such terms as these soulless combina
tions choose to offer The Knights
ot Labor are therefore taking the right
step in moving a ainst the land pirates,
—
The repeal of the capital punishment
law has been effected in Maine, and
imprisonment for life is substituted for
deatb in all cases of murder in the first
degree. Such convicts, however, are
to be kept in close confinement, away
from all associations, and no pardoning
power is left to the governor and coun
cil uuless the convict is proved inuo i
cent. '
THE work of reapportioning the
state into congressional districts seems
to bo accompanied with manifold diffi
culties and poor prospects of fairness to
the minority Democrats. The sub-com
mittee of the House entrusted with this
job last week agreed upon a division
which gives the Republicans no less
twenty-two representatives and leaves
the Democrats out in the cold with
a paltry balance of six. The follow
ing is likely to be new formation of
districts:
rhiladclphla(si\ districts),

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From our regular correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, Mar. 21, ISB7.
Last Friday—the 1 ISth of March
was the golden anniversary of Presi
dent Cleveland's biith. He carefully
avoided any celebration, or rather, he
celebrated the occasion by carefully
giving his entire attention to public
business. The President is not of an
enthusiastic or sentimental nature. lie
is constitutionally opposed to every
thing which partakes of the charactei
of self-glorification, and such he con
siders a man's celebration of his own
birthday to be.
The visit of ex Senator Tliurroan to
this city furnished the political gossips
with food for a'whole day. They could
not learn positively whether his con
ference with the President had refer
ence to the appointment of the Inter
state Commerce Commissioners, the
Pacific railroad investigation, the Eng
lish mission, or tlie Secretaryship of
the Treasury. "The noblest Roman of
them all" settled these canards him
self. When asked if the Piesident had
tendered him any position he replied,
"No ; I am neither to be Secretary of
State nor Secretary of the Tieasury nor
Minister to England. lam not even
going to be an Inter-State Commission
er." He addeu that his call on the
President was entirely social and that
he was not after otlice.
There is little occasion for the wide
spread alarm as to the financial situ
ation during the interval before Con
gress convenes. The condition of the
Treasury is much stronger than }t was
nine months ago, the distribution of
currency much more favorable and
adequate, and the circumstances in
many respects more [reassuring. The
surplus is smaller, the gold fund is
stronger, and the circulation and sup
ply of convenient forms of small cur
rency is more abundant.
That which is deemed chiefly unfa
vorable in the situation is the fact that
only thirty millions of bonds remain
subject to call, and that after three
monthly calls this means of putting
money into circulation will be cut oft
It is a fact howeyer, that recent bond
calls have been of little service, and
that the Treasury has ample authority
and has declared its willingness to go
into the market and buy bonds at cur
rent rates it the situation should be
come such as to call for this action.
Those whose opinions on the subject
are best worth knowing think there is
no reason to fear that the coming sum
mer and autumn will bring any serious
financial disturbance, or that the
strength of the Treasury and the skill
of its managers are not .fully equal to
all emergencies tiiat may arise.
The Cabinet-makers who have dis
posed of the Treasury portfolio for Mr.
Cleve'and more than a dozen times
! since Secretary Manning resigned, are
really a little embarrassed just now as
to what to say next. It was positively
asserted that Speaker Carlisle was of
fered the place last Saturday and de
clined. Since there has been so much
delay in the matter some of them take
it for granted Mr. Manning's successor
will not be named until the first of
April, the date when his resignation
takes effect.

The Richmond Hotel, a new and fine
structure in Buffalo, N. Y., was de
stroyed by fire on Frifjav morning. Sev
eral persons lost their lives in the con
flagration, and about 70 were more or
less seriously injured.
Miscellaneous News.
The sale of ono thousand mile hooks
on the Pennsylvania railroad has been
stopped.
Chang Yen Iloon, the Chinese min

all out of the enve'ope, as he supposed,
and then lighted his pipe with the en
velope, and as the paper was consumed
he thought he saw something that look
ed like money. He did. There was a
SSO hill there which he had neglected to
take out. The $3 was safe in his pocket.
Titus Not to Hang.
TUKXTON, March 22.—The court of
pardons began this morning by the con
sideration of the petition for the com
mutation of Janitor Titus' sentence,
and at 2 o'clock unanimously agreed to
commute his sentence to imprisonment
for life. 11 is counsel are jubilant and
satisfied.
Johnson to Hang.
PHILADELPHIA, March 21.—The su
preme court this morning affirmed the
judgement of the oyer and terminer
court of Delaware county, convicting
Samuel Johnson of the murder of farm
er John Sharpless. .Judge Sterrett de
livered the opinion, which is very long,
covering one by one each of the twelve
assignments of error.
The Washburn ice gorge near Bis
marck, D. T., broke last Friday night
and in less than two hours from the
time the gorge broke the water was in
the second story of the river hoarding
houses which had been built on what
was considered high ground. The loss
of buildings will be over $15,000. The
meadow land south of Bismarck com
prising 80,000 acres is one vast sea, and
tlie ice is flowing over the newly made
channel in this body of surplus water
at the rate of ten miles per hour.
Face to Face With a Crisis-
The Gravity of the Situation Dawns
on the Canadian Press.
ST. JOHN, N. 8., March 20.—Since
Fresulrnt Cleveland has given lus as
sent toj the retaliatory bill there has
been a change in sentiment here over
its probable effect on Canada, should
she persist in denying privileges to
United States fishermen, as was done
last year. When the seizures were l>e
ing made, the (Hole was the only paper
here that did not uphold Canada in the
course she was pursuing.
Tlie Telajraph now acknowl- d es tl e
dancer in which the Dominion has heen
placed. It says to-day : 4 We venture
j that the full gravity of the situation
lias not dawned upon this community.
Our neighbors have resorted to the last
alternative, next to war. War itself
must in time result from enforced non
intercourse bet ween two communities,
situated as the Dominion and the lie
public are. Shall we, in the face of
such conditions, go on enforcing the
customs regulation, as to American
fishing vessels, which were applied last
year V If so, we shall have non-inter
course. with its penalties as above
brought on. We believe that the pres
ident will act as the law declares he
shall act, and if so, we are face to face
with an international crisis of the grav
est character."
Two Peculiar Accidents.
Montgomery county had two fatal
accidents of a peculiar nature last Fri
day. Jacob Sensenhach drove a mile
from his home at Tobvhanna Mills to
visit a neighbor. When he returned
one of the children told him that its
mother was asleep on a couch in anoth
er room, but instead of finding her
asleep on the couch found her dead on
the tloor. It is supposed that, while
asleep she was taken with a fit, fell
against the wheel of a baby cart iage
that stord near the lounge, and there
strangled to death. When Sensenhach
entered the room his youngest child
was found playing beside its mother,
supposing she was asleep. .She was
forty-live years of age and the mother
of four children.
Valentine Bngle, of Ilanger Mills,
called at the residence of Valentine
Huey to treat a cliiM for rupture. lie
accepted an invitation to stay all night
and was lighted to his room. When
breakfast was ready he failed to answer
the cad,and was subsequently found at.
the foot of the hack stairway dead and
his neck broken. The light was still
burning in bis room. The family claim
not to have heard the noise made by
the fall. Deceased was known far and
wide as Dr. Engle. Though not a reg
ular practicing physician, he was well
skilled in the use of herbs and domestic
remedies. He was 70 years old and
married.
The Man Behind the Deal.
Jay Gould Said to be Most Deeply
Interested in the Transaotion.
NEW YORK, March 19.— Although
it is generally believed that Messrs.
Ives and tttnyner are negotiation for
the control of tne Baltimore and Ohio
Hail road and have made a first payment
of *I,OOO 000, the identity of the real
principals of the deal is as much asever
a matter of conjecture. No one will
confess to having anything to do with
it.
A prominent broker, who has excep
tional opportunities for information In
regard to the deal, said to day '. "The
man of all others to whom the acquisi
tion of the Baltimore and Ohio is of the
greatest interest is Mr. Jay Gould, and
it will be found that he is the power
behind the new contraction parties.
His interest in the Baltimore and Ohio
is by no means confined to the telegraph
department. Jn fapt tfiat if? a second
ary consideration. He carries in his
pocket the control of a great railway
system which Is of greater moment to
him than his holdings or Western
Union, viz : the Missouri Pacific, 'Jay
Gould's pet.' For years he has been
trying to secure for this property a di
rect connection to New York lie now
controls the qhio and Mississippi, and
with the acquisition pf the Baltimore
and Ohio and a consolidation of that
property with the Richmond Terrains 1
Uoinpany his ippst ambitious objects
will liaye been attained
-1 believe this new arrangement with
Messrs. Ives and Stayner is the result
of the conference between Gould, Sully
ana Sage which was held
in the Western Union building. Pd all
appearances Mr. Gould and Mr. Sully
retire from the negotiations, but when j
eyerythmg is settled they will be the j
most prominent figures in ope of the j
greatest deals in railroad history."
FIRE AT CHAUTAUQUA.
Eighty Buildings Destroyed at a
Lof.B of Over £IOO,OOO.
Jamf.stown, N. Y., Match ill.—A
lire at the Chautauqua assembly
grounds early this morning destroyed
eighty huildinirs. including several
huge boarding houses. The total loss
will probably exceed SIOO,OOO. Tlie lire
started shortly before midnight in the
Curtis cottage, on Simpson avenue. It
was caused by a defective Hue. The
buildings and cottages tire of wood.and
are close together. The lire spread
rapidly to the adjoining cottages, and
the lack of flie apparatus and the
scarcity of help favored the Matties.
The lire swept everything before it,
taking both sides of Simpson and Sutn
mer'field avenues from the auditorium
to the Hotel Athenuuiui. It was witli
great diHiculty that t lie hotel was saved.
The absence of a high wind alone saved
from destruction the large and cost<y
structure. The heroic work of the
winter residents and farmers from the
surrounding country undoubtedly pre
vented the destruction of the entire as
sembly, with its costly buildings, and
800 cottages from total destruction.
All ttie cottages and boarding houses
in the burned district were furnished
and equipped, and very tittle furniture
was saved. Many of the burned cot
tages on Ntmpson avenue weie rebuilt
last year. This was the most fashion*
ablest venue of the grounds. The cot
tages cost from $2,000 to $15,000 tach.
Thirty-six buildings on Simpson ave
nue, 24 buildings on Summerfield ave
nue. 0 cottages on Terrace avenue, and
3on Hedding avenue, and the magniti
ceut fiunar. trw* shading these stieets
were burned and destroyed. The entire
loss amounts to about $125,000.
—Says neighbor Smith : "My little
girl .vas pale and sickly, rapidly losing
Mesh, appetite variable, and sleep much
disturbed. Her condition was becom
ing alarming. Was advised by a friend
to try McDonald's Celebrated Worm
Powders. Administered three and she
expelled ttie enormous n .tuber of 102
worms." Neighbor Smith now thinks
Mc'Donald's Worm Powders are the
greatest vermifuges in existence.

What toe wish to say to our customers is this: That toe are going to
sell cheajwr than ever before.
WHY ?
First —Because this is a dull season in general. But we are going
to make it lively by selling good* way down and selling much.
SeCOTId —Because we have a big supply of winter goods on hand,
that must be sold in order to make room for a spring stock.
Third —Because we can afford belter to sell winter goods cheap than
carry them over the saason.
Fourth —Because toe have the "Swing" and are bound to keep it.
REMEMBER!
We have anything from a needle to a hogshead of molasses—a good
Sewing Machine or a house and lot.
