Intending te bring It te a packer in Lan

cigar manufacturer of MHlerarllle of tbe
eiler made 'te him, and believed that he
could aave a few cent by dlapeslng of the

The New Yerk Market,
Frem the U. H. Tobacco Journal.
The market remains in a very comatose
condition. Wholesale transactions have
almost ceased entirely. Whatever busi
ness is done is limited te the retailing of a
bale or a couple of cases. Ne such depres
sion has been experienced during the past
few vears. And yet a brighter day Is
bound te come. The holders of Sumatra
will feel quite cheerful at tbe prespuct of
having a duty of t'i enacted. Ne doubt
some pretty lively hustling will be dene in
the Sumatra line the next few months.
.The first inscription of this year will take
place en tbe ilstlnst, The quantity will
amount te 2,500 bales.
The new Wisconsin is being bought at
present at a very lively rate. It is tbe ex
traordinary cheapness which attracts the
buyer te the Wisconsin. A temporary lull
has set In in the buying of the state seed
while the Pennsylvania remains utterly
neglected.
The Havana moves as freely as ever. Ne
chanee lu prices, though the markel in
Cuba Is steadily, advancing the price of
goods bultable for the United Stales.
Frem the Tobacco Leaf.,
Business was net as brisk this week as
the previous one. 1888 Pennsylvania II' h
were eagerly sought for, as It is an under
stood fact that the new PenusylvunU seed
leaf Is a failure, and also that very llttle
geed Havana seed tobacco Is In the crop,
peaking te a prominent packer the ether
day in regard te this crop, he said, "It Is
tbe most dansoreus crop te handle, from
present indications, that I ever saw."
In Wisconsin, buying of the new crop is
going en in a moderate manner. In Onon
daga the farmers are holding their tobacco
loe mgu te inaKO uusincss nvciy. iius
crop is the soundest and bent raised this
year.

After Orterla All Ktada of Geed Thlace
They BefWaete Settle With a Jts4-
ratear-Breekearldaaaeatte Jalt
This morning the mayor had quite a
lively hearing and the attendance of police
men and spectators waa very large. They
were all well paid for their time, for there
was an etd-lashtened hearing, full of fun.
Twe of the principal offenders were David
Ohie and Charles Breckenrldge. The lat
ter, who aaya be hau a sister living near,
town, came te Lancaster yesterday.
He fell In with Ohie, and both get
drunk. In the evening they went te the
restaurant under the Serrel Herse hotel,
where they attempted te play casino with
the edibles and make "a sweep." They
first ordered oyster stews, which they
quickly ate, and en top of these they placed
two raws. They then ordered eggs, aa It
seemed te be their day te eat, and the usual
quantity of crackersdisappeared with them.
They were se fresh with their erders that the
proprietor did net knew but what they
would order blm out n' tn place next.
He called them down by asking them te
settle when they demanded teer. This made
the pair of millionaires, who up te that
time bad showed no cash, very angry and
they proposed settling by .raising a fight.
The bartender called the landlord of the
hotel and the two prize beauties Bald
they could whip the whole ward,
and no policeman would take them.
Werd was sent te the station heuse and
Officer Lehr, with the assistance of Ser
geant Erisman, took the men In. Breck
enrldge showed fight and tore Lehr's badge
off, and a bole In his coat. The offlcer
found blm a strong and very tough cus
tomer befere he succeeded In landing him.
This morning the mayor sent him te Jail
for five days and discharged 'Ohie with
costs.
Jee Gesa, net the old fighter, but a little
fellow who leeks like a professional bum,
get 20 days, as he has frequently been In'
the station house. Charles Miller and
James Hart two strangers who, with a
bottle of whisky, were taken In by Chief
Smeltz and Officer Samson, get tbe same
kind of a term. Jehn Addleman, ene of
the dirtiest looking men in the tramp busi
ness, and Themas Larkln get 20 days each,
Jeseph Siddell was discharged.
On the way te the prison 'the man who
gave his nanie as Jee Gess tried te get
away from Officers Gardner and Crawford.
On Grant Street, near Shlppen, he stepped
and pretonded te be picking up some to
bacco. The officers were net paying the
closest attention te htm and he started te
run. He was captured afterji chase of two
squares.

horses and ene of them, with a rnule, ran
down the railroad track. Anether hersn
bad two hind legs broken, and it was
found necessary te kill blm en the spot, and
that was quickly done with an axe. The
accident caused the engine te leave the
track with the pilot and cylinder head
broken. Henry B. Luken, the engineer,
remained at his throttle and he called te
Jehn Hartranft, the fireman, te jump,
which he did. Beth came near being
killed. The tracks wero tern up for some
distance. The track was blocked for some
time befere the wreck could be cleared up,
and the down passouger train was obliged
te turn and come back te town. It was
after seven o'clock In the evening befere
the track was cloared, and the engine after
wards came te this city and was taken te
Reading for repalrs.

select circle of friends. When he passed
away, however, and his executer
bad tiled his account exhibiting a
residuary balance of nearly $50,000,
which auditors were appointed te dis
tribute, a young woman, whose tnalden

careful analysis of the testimony. " that no

What at Ant aeeaaed an lnatgnlneaat fire
In the Bewea-Memll bookstore, Indianap
olis, ea Monday afternoon, resulted la a
catastrophe la which at last ten saeawere
killed aad adesen wounded,some of whom
will die. The building occupied by the
book company wasa four-story aad base
ment marble front building facing Wash
ington street just west of Meridian.
The Are started Just before S o'clock near
the furnace in the sub-basement. The fire
department, when It arrived, seemed at a
less te locate the Are and began, pouring
water Inte the building at the front,
when the seat of the trouble was In the
rear. Fer. two hours the Aght had
continued In thla way until a majority
of the spectators had left, under the
Impression that the Are was out. About
6:30, however, there waa a terrible crash,
and the entire building, except the front
wall, fell Inward. At the time a number of
firemen, variously estimated at eight te
twenty, were en the reef or the building
and were buried In the debris, which waa
Ciled forty feet high within the walls of the
urned building.
Immediately the work of rescuing the
living and extricating the dead waa begun
by at least 600 volunteers who, In addition
te the uninjured fireman and members of
the police force, formed a strong corps of
workers. At times their ears would be
S reeled by the groans of the wounded un
eraeath the ruins, and then the work
would be pushed with renewed vigor. Fer
three hours the forces labored te rescue the
wounded snd recover tbe dead.
The work of excavating the ruins of the
Bewen-Merrlll fire is btlU In progress. Se
far ten firemen are known te be dead.
Their namea are: Geerge Faulkner,
Ulysses Glazier, Geerge Glenn, Al. Hoff Heff
man, Samuel Neat, EspeySterver, Richard
Lewtle, Charles Jeuklns, Themas Tallen
tyre. Andrew Cherry, superintendent of
the fire alarm system.
The fire from a furnace In the basement
of tbe large book publishing establishment
or the Bewen-Merrlll company reached
seme paper and In an Instant the flames
wero carried by the elevator shaft te the
fourth aterv. The building, a fine stone
and Iren structure fronting en Washlngtenl
street, wassMireu wuu uoeks mm wsuen-
ery of alt kinds. This large stock was con
sumed atad the building wrecked.
At 6:30 o'clock this less of mere than
$150,000 en building and stock was followed
L down mere than 20 persona, including these
wuu wure wurmng uu wia vanuus uuurs.
Tbe fire at thla hour had been driven te a
corner between tbe ceiling of the fourth
story and the cornice. Parts of the fire com
panies were en the reef working their way
down te the fire. The reef seemed sound
snd the walls substantial, but suddenly the
walls yielded. A man threw up his arms
and sank Inte tbe seething ruins below. An An
other man dropped and then the Whole rear
reef, with 15 men en It, fcH en the top fleer
where the fire was raging. Four men
were en the upper fleer under the reef.
These were crushed beneath the grinding
timbers and all the men hurled through
the falling Meer beneath, which gave way
beneath tbe weight of the mass. One of
the firemen en the top or tbe adjoining
building ran lo-tbe front of the building
and shouted te these below : "Fer Ged'a
sake, threw water in the upper wlndewa I
Twenty men are buried thore."
Instantly ambulances were telephoned
for, and presently the crowd below moaned
under the porlentieua developments. The
scene en the heap of debris Immediately
after tbe collapse was pitiable and dreadful
beyond 'the power of description. The
limbs of men here and there were seen
writhing, while the trunks te which they
belonged were buried fmm sight
A ladder lay across the three men and
waa wolghted down by tens of bricks and
timber. Anether peer fellow, who was
beyond all pain, lay close beside bis fel
lows, a shapeless and mangled mass. The
ladder lay across the stomach of ene man,
who Was screaming with agony. Anetner
man with a broken arm and twisted body
lsy next te htm.
As fast as willing hands could haul away
the bricks they wero romevod, but tbe
ladder was tee llrnily Jield te yield. Tbe
man with a broken arm was dragged free
aud carried away. Under blm, mute but
breathing, appeared the upturned face of a
peer fellow net seen bofero. Tbe mortar
and dust were cleaned from his lips, but
he was burled se deeply that no Immediate
help could come te him.
On all sides blackened and bleeding faces,
distorted with agony or dreadful In death,
urged the crowd who had scaled the beap te
assist them te redouble their efforts. The
debris had fallen se that It lay with a valley
shaped surface, and this tnade avallable
space for work very small. There was no
place te dopeslt the materials dug from the
bottom of the vullev. ex coot te threw them
upon tbe sides of tbe donreuleu, from
which tbey continually rolled down toward
tue cenire again.
All tbe work of relief was thus carried
en with great difficulty. One by ene the
men nearest tbe surface were extricated,
but as tbe werkers went down farther,
they discovered new victims, and tbe
horror steadily grew. The forward part
of the building mill steed high and burn
ing fiercely, and tbreatened evcry moment
te rail down and bury the brave rescuers,
but tbey gave no heed te the peril.
On either side tbe walls towered and
seemed ready te fall, but there was no time
te think of them. As fast as the workmen
became exhausted ethers steed ready and
anxleua te fill the places, se there was net
a moment of delay in the labor of relief.
Every moment was filled with an awful
suspense, for all were thinking of friends
who jay uurieu neneain mum. i'inei
which men inquired after were passed
hurriedly from lip te lip. and poeplo bent
down te scan closely the blackened and
scarred faces. Persons who bad friends
among the fireman, or among citizens who
wero supposed te have been near the fatal
walls, became frantic as tlme passed and
they could get no word. As the wounded
were carried out of the ruins tbey were met
with embraces and tears of Jey ; but when
the still, broken forms were borue away,
motionless and limp, then it was when the
full sadness and horror of the calamity
came upon the waiting crowd.
At 11.30 p. in, 22 men wero taken from
the ruins, ulne or whom were dead, and
the rest mero or less Injured. Others are
kuewu te be under tbe mass of debris, but
have net yet been reached.

PROHIBITION OF PEDDLING.
Ah Important and Interesting Opinion
of the Supreme Court,
The supreme court reaffirmed their de
cision In regard te peddlers Monday when
they banded down an opinion byJudgp
Williams tn the case of the commonwealth
against Gardner and ethers, appealed from
the court of Schuylkill county. Tbe opin
ion refutes the argument made that te for
bid peddling Is a violation of the bill of
rights.'
It waa claimed by the defendants, who
were peddling an article manufactured In
Rhede Island, that they were engaged In
Interstate commerce With which the state
had no right te Interfere. Thty also held
that they were agenta of the mandfaetttrers
at a stated salary, with no personal Interest
In the sales, but the court holds that It Is
the manner of sale which makes the ped
dler, and the question of the ownership of
the goods la of no poaslble consequence.
After calling attention te the difference
, bet wee n the merchant whose goods are ex-
posed for sale In a store, where poeplo
come In search of what they want, and a
peddler who secka customers by invading
their houses, Judge Williams continues :
" It la this matter or tracking a laboring
manor woman Inte the home and laying
siege te blm or her by an unscrupulous
and self-possessed stranger who is after
money and haa no delicate scruples about
the manner lu which he gets It that haa
madethe peddler a dread Tn the country
and In the villages and haa led tbe law-
makeraln this and ether states teputtha
buslnesa under strict regulations whero it
1b net wholly forbidden.''
The Judge next takes up the constitu
tional argument that under tbe right of
"acquiring, possessing and protecting
property" secured by the bill of rights,
(he defendauta had the right te carry thelr
geed where they pleased In search of
buy ere. On thla point he says :
" A distinction must be taken between
the right and the manner of acquisition.
Tbe highwayman engages tn hla business
with a view te acquire property, but the
trouble la that hla methods are epen te ob
jection. Tbe aame Is true or the gambler
aud the lettery dealer. Seme biiilness
men have been known In thelr zeal te ac
quire property te use raise welghts and
ineasurea, but the law lays Its hand en the
methods tbey employ.
"It does net agroe that the end Justifies
the means and for that reason It" punishes
the highwayman, the gambler, tbe lottery
dealer and the cheat, whlle It recognizes
their constitutional right te 'acquire,
possess and protect property.' Our laws
relating te peddllngare directed uet against
tbe tight of acquisition, but the manner In
which some poeplo exerclse that right; and
are therefore net In violation of the consti
tutional rights or the ewuers or goods, but
are a wlse exercise of the police pewer
ever the manner In which goods shall be
sold.
" We have understood Inter-state com
merce te refer te the free Interchange of
commodities between citizens of the differ
ent states without regard te state lines. If
we 'are right about this, thenUhe lawa
rotating te peddling de net Interfere with
such Interchange and cannot be an In vaslen
of the authority or the United States. The
cltlzen of atiother state may come Inte Penn
sylvania when he will and enjoy the aame
measure of freedom in regard te tne con
duct of his business as a native citizen. Ills
rights are equal te but net above these of
the citizen. He haa no mere right te sell
intoxicating drinks without a license than
a citizen ; no belter right te soil clrgarottes
te cuiiuroner oieemargaruio te customers,
In violation of law, than a citizen. He has
no better right take a tiack en his
back, or a herse and cart, and ongage
In the business of 'peddling, than a citi
zen, Te held the contrary would be
subversive of law and erder, and would
render tbe possession of the police power
useleas te the state. If it Ib true, aa
is new asserted, that the Itinerant stranger
who threads tbe country reads and haunts
the mining towns, carrying a pack or box
filled with sham Jewelry and worthless
watches, te soil te theso who are credulous
enough te bollevo bis representations,
for many tlmea their real value, and
who, aa seen as be has 'gene through'
a neighborhood, moves quickly out
or reach iritis true that such a person
Is the ward el tbe Federal constitution, en
gaged In Inter-state cemmerce, with the
power or the government or the United
States Interposed between him and the
pnllce ower or the state, It must be ad
mitted that we have stumbled en a
startllug and unloekod for result or the
Investment or tbe general governtneiit
with tbe power te regulate commerce.
Fortunately the Federal courts de net se
held. They distinctly recognize the police
pewer or the states and their right te forbid
altogether the sole of such articles as are
Injurious. The convlstlen in the lower
oeurt is sustained."
