8 THE TIMES, NEW BL00MF1EL1), PA., JUL? 20, 1881. Sugar Refining The Extent of the Business In Boston. The tnt ul sugar leflnltiR oporntions of the live refliii'rios iu Rostou are about 10,000, 000 pounds porwock, imdor ordinary cir cumstances, Tbls quantity cannot be es timated at a value of less than 17(10,000, nd probably would reach nenrer $300,000. The Herald of that city says ! Tbore are but few of the trades and Industries of the city which rench larger proportions, and jot, to the geueral mind, the business does not convey the idea of great magnitude, aud it is KOtiernlly supposed that by the -combined operations of a few men, the eu. tire trade onu be controlled. This Is a mis taken notion. Perhaps there Is no single trade requiring more actual activity to keep it within the bounds of the capital In volved. Suppose, for example, a decline of only oue-elhth of a cont per pound on the production for a slnglj week. It means the loss of 512,500 to tho refiners of this city alono, aud a decline of 1 cent per pound would mean the loss of f 100,000 in a single week. An advance of even a frac tion of a cent upon a stock of sugars, of com so, makes just as baudsomo a pro lit, aud it is jiiHt here that the strong1 tempta tion to soli and tho tremendous power of competition can bo understood. It would take a combination of unusual strength to prevent a refiner from turning out all the sugar his trade required, if he saw a profit of evon one-eighth of a cont. But the foeling among the refiners, so fur as .this city is concerned, is that, at the present prices) sugar is refined at a loss, aud hence all ate very willing to ngreo to curtail pro duction. In tho words of a gentlcnmu iu the trade, "I would rather feci that each refiner keeps his agreement, aud I think they do," the sentiment of tho business is conveyed, and the conclusion would seem to be a safo one that about all the refined sugar will bo turned out that can be sold at a profit of eveu oue-eighth of a cent, per pouud. llulow this flgnro of profit it is useless to expect refiners to continue to operate. lint a suspension of operations ja not without disastrous results to tho bugar refiner os well as the buyer. The heavy capital iuvolved iu the business is drawing interest every day and hour. Most of tho rcfiuers at this season have large stocks of raw sugars on baud, and a suspension of trade for a single .veek means a heavy Iobs iu most instances. A Town Almost Annihilated. CnicAao, 111., July '17. The town of Ifew Ulm, Minn., situated on tho Minne sota River, Bixty-five miles from St. Paul, contaiuing about thirty-five hundred per sons, was wrecked by a cyclone late Satur day afternoon. The telegraph wires went down iu tho river, aud only meagre details can be given. It seems that two currents of air swept the valley simultaneously, coming from different directions. The scene was appalling iu the extreme. Stone and brick buildings were razed to their fouudatioug and the air was full of debris. The town and its suburbs are now a mass of ruins. "West Newton, in the neighbor ing County of Niholet, was visited and a family of three persons killed. Their names could not be learned. The follow ing is an imperfect list of the killed aud wounded in the ill-fated valley: The killod iu New Ulm aro Mr. Eckort and his 12-ycar-old son ; Laura Wright, aged 11 years (fouud on tho prairie decapitated, head not yet fouud); a sou of Mr. Warner, aged 14, the only body found killed in the town of Severance, near by; Martin Frank, Joseph Kulubo, wife and threo children, one child badly wounded, sole survivor of the fami ly; in West Newton a child of Mr. Loo mis, and an unknown old gentleman, who was found with his arms clasped around a tree. The wounded are some thirty in number. There are many siugular incidents told, among which aio tho following : Cue of the saddest fatalities was the parting of the head of Mrs. Laura Reitz from her body, which was found on the prairies quite a distance oil'. Martin Prauk, of West Newton, was found dead one mile from his hous?, aud not a parti--cle of the houso has beon found since the storm. Matthew Finly and family, of West Newton, were killed. There were seven in the family, and only one remains alive. Miss Anna Loach was carried out of the house, her mother rau out after her aud she said, "Oil, mother, I must die," and immediately expired. One man was stand ing talking to his wife aud the first thiug he knew his wife was gone aud be was in the air. His house was carried away. He Xound his wifo several blocks distaut when the storm was over. A Railroad Train Robbed. Rock Island, July 17. The passen get s on a liuiu of the Cbicago.Rock Island aud Pacific which was boarded aud robbed by a gaug of thieves Friday night at Wins ton arrived here yesterday morning, hav. Sug been delayed near Davenport by a wash-out. E. L. Martin, one of the pas. seugers, suys the lobbers ransacked the safe, seeuring f 10,000 in money, $300 in valuables aud a government bond of $1,000, The bi internal) ou duty, whose came can not bo ascertained, lushed through the train as soon as be learned of the murder of the oonduoter and Informed the passen gers that uu effort would be made to rob them. As soon as this bad beeu accom plished tho biakemau started forward, and when he bad reached the second oonch the robbers entered both doors 'with pistols In their bands,' demanding money. The brakeman pulled the cord attached to the air brake and soon nftbrwards the train slopped. The men Jumped off the cars and made for the woods. Mr. Martlu states that not more than fifteen minutes elapsed from the time of leaving Winston until the robbers jumped from tho train and fled. The sleeping car porter locked blmsolf up in tho state room of the sleeper and did not make himsolf visible, until the train was near Washington. Conducter Westfall, who was killed lived at Wilton, where bis remains were left this morning. The rob hers numbered thirteen and two of them bad bandkeichlefs tied about their faces. A Husband Instead of a Fortune. Miss Nannie Siffnd of Frederick was married at hor residonce yesterday morning to Mr. Aubrey Peat-re. By hor marriage she is obliged to surrender, In accordance with the provisions of tho will of the late John Loata, a brother-in-law, nn estate estimated' to be worth between $.10,000 and $73,0(10. The propoi ty, in which she was given a life estate, or until she married, consists in part of one of tho most elogant prlvato residences in the city and a fiuo farm located on tho immediate southoru suburbs of the town. It will now pass Into the hands of a Hoard of Trustees for the establishment of an Orphan Horns for gil ls. Jlaltimore Sim of the 21t Inst. tar Father Moonoy of St. Pat-tick's Cathedral of New York, plunged Into the surf at Far Kockaway to rescue a man who was drowuiiig, aud reached him just ns he was sinking for the third time. The man made a clutch at the priest's throat. Father Mooney struck the mail as hard a-) he could iu the face, which broke bis grasp. He then took him to shore, and iu n few moments be walked away without thank ing the clergyman. Abandoned.

IS IARX DUKES The Cyclopaedia War. The month of July, I88i, witnesses the completion of the largest nnd fno9t Important literary work this country nnd the century have Been. It is the Library of Universal Knowledge, large type edition, in 15 large octnvo volumes, containing 10 per cent more matter than Applcton'g Cyclopedia, at less than one-fifth its cost, and 3o per cent more than Johnson s Cyclopictiia, at a Utile more Clin hambers's Encyclopaedia, which forms edRO (the last London edition of 1RS0 being reprinted verbatim as a portion of its con tents), Is the laborious product . of the ripest British and Euro pean scholarship. It has devel- W I QTQPw Ped through a century of Cy clopedia mnkiiifr; its van'oti'i iWfcWl J cdltionshavingbcenmanytlmes revised, in successive years, till it lias comi! to be universally recogniied, by those com petent to judge, as standing at the very front of great aggregations of knowledge, and better adapted than any other Cyclopasdla for popular use. It contains such full and important information ns the ordinary reader, or the careful student, is likely to seek, upon about 25,000 subjects In every department of human knowledge. Chambers's Encyclopedia, however, is a foreign production, edited and published for a foreign market, and could not bo ex- mm mga m pectcd to give as much promi nence to American topics as Wm Q I hA American renders might de sire. To supply these and 1 V other deficiencies a large corps of American editors and writers have added Important articles upon about 15,000 topics, covering the entire field of human knowledge, bringing the whole number of titles under one alphabetical arrangement to about 40,000. Thus the, work is thoroughly Americanized, nnd the Library of Universal Knowledge becomes at once the latest and most complete Encyclopedia in the field, at a mere fraction of the cost of any similar Work which has preceded it, Pyf ' t,,e '5 volumes, complete, in extra cloth binding, $15.00. In half I I V " Russia, sprinkled edges, jwu.oj. In half Russia, gilt top, $23.50. In full library sheep, marbled edges, $25.00. The superlative value nnd importance of this great Encyclopedia lies especially In the fact that it is brought within the reach of every ono who aspires nfter knowledge and culture. It is mi) a libra- m I . ry of universal knowl edge. It brings a liberal & UQ I T I 13 education easily within the reach even of every BVW W VIM bIWII plowboy of the country nnd npprentlce boy of the city. Every fnrmer nnd every mechanic in the land owes it to him.ielf and to his children that such a Cyclopedia shall henceforward form a part of the outfit of his home. To the professional man, and every person of intelligence in every walk of life, a Cyclopedia is a necessity. Of course the old nnd wealthy publishers who have grown rich (it Is said that the Appletons have made n profit of nearly two million dollars on their Cyclopedia) from the sale of their high-priced publications are not pleased that their monopolies are broken and their power overthrown. Of course the book agents nnd booksellers who have been used to getting from 40 to Co per cent commission for selling these high-priced books are $ 1 0,000 Reward though those who are not short-sighted discover that their own interests, after all, are identical with the Interests of the people, nnd their real profits, in the end, are Increased, by the immense sales which result from meeting the people's wants. The majority of booksellers, however, are better pleased to slanJcr than to7this and otir nhmcrous other standard and incomparably low-priced publications, liut the Literary Hevolution has always looked to the people, in whose interests it is, for its patronage, and it has never looked In vain, as our more than bti I ' CV one million volumes printed last H ft B - I i 1 tfl ECfP'llt'i year (this year being increased W fcJ 8 to probably more than two millions) abundantly prove.
