... .The Canadian authorities have issued or¬ 
ders for a more stringent protection of the 
fisheries next season. They express confidence 
that Newfoundland will join the Dominion 
this year as the only chance for preserving her 
fisheries. Her late laws against the sale of 
bait to French anti American fishing vessels 
have failed of approval by the Imperial Gov¬ 
ernment which does not wish at this juncture 
to exasperate Frenchmen. A large propor¬ 
tion of the island fish trade with the West In¬ 
dian Islands, South America, and Southern 
Europe, has lately been lost; hence, discon¬ 
tent, distress, etc ... Tuesday the steamer 
W. H. Gardner, was burned on the Tombighee 
River, near Gainsville, Ala.: 20 persons lost, 
mostly passengers; nearly all drowned after

disaster has been brought by one of the in¬ 
jured passengers, which will doubtless prove a 
test case.An advance in the price 
of nails is likely to be made soon. 
After eight weeks' wrangling the contest for 
the election of Senator in New Jersey ended 
Tuesday by the election of Rufus Blodgett, a 
Democratic railroad man by +2 votes, just 
one over the number necessary for a choice. 
Of these 42, 37 were Republicans and five 
Democrats. The Republicans, finding they 
couldn't re-elect Sewell or any other Republi¬ 
can. combined with a few disgruntled Demo¬ 
crats to defeat ex Governor Abbott, all along 
the Democratic candidate, by voting for Blod¬ 
gett...Gov. Perry, of Florida has 
appointed Gen. J. J. Finley, a lawyer of 
Ocala, as United States Senator to fill the 
vacancy caused by the expiration yesterday 
of the term of Senator Jones—of Detroit- 
The Legislature of West Virginia having 
adjourned without beiug able to agree upou a 
choice of Senator, Gov. Wilson has appoint¬ 
ed Darnel B. Lucas, lawyer, to the position. 
The list of U. S. Senators for the 50th Con¬ 
gress, the term of which began yesterday, is 
now completed, and the only chance of aeon- 
test is in the case of Turpie, Democrat, of 
Indiana....,.The Republican majority 
in the Senate of the 50th Congress will be re¬ 
duced to two if Turpie secures his scat. The 
political changes will be Democrats in place 
of Harrison, of Indiana; Sewell, of New Jer¬ 
sey, and Mail one, of Virginia, and a Republi¬ 
can in place of Fair, of Nevada. The Senate 
of t he 49th Congress stood 42 Republicans to 
34 Democrats, in the 5m.h Congress it will 
stand 30 to37 with the power in the eccentric 
Mr. Riddleberger, of Virginia, to make a tie 
if he should happen to feel like it.The 
nomination of James C. Matthews, colored, 
of Rochester. N. Y., as Recorder of Deeds for 
the District of Columbia, having been a second

nominated James M. Trotter, colored, of 
Boston,Mass. After much hesitation the Senate 
discontentedly confirmed the nomination just 
before the end of the session.Monday 
Mrs. Druse, 42, was hanged at Herkimer, N. 
Y.. for the murder of her husband on Dec. 18, 
1884. She boiled part of the body and fed it 
to hogs, and burned the rest_in the kitchen 
stove. First woman hanged in N. Y. State 
since May 2, 1852.. The trial of boodle 
alderman C'leary has just begun here.. .Gross 
frauds by Chicago boodle aldermen and other 
oflicials are coming to light. San Francisco 
is also cursed with boodle aldermen, boodle 
Commissioners and an inefficient Police De¬

000,000 out of a Texan law speculation. 
_Contrary to an Albany telegram last Sat¬ 
urday, the Women Sufferage Bill has not yet 
passed the N. Y. Legislature, being still 
“hung up” in the Assembly.Out in 
Minn.. Mineapolislms bid $2,000,00(1 for the new 
capital, and over $500,000 of the sum have been 
subscribed. Duluth has raised the bid $500,- 
000, and St, Paui made it an even $3,000,000; 
Crookston offers a quarter section of land and 
professes to have subscribed £4,000,000; Min- 
ueota offers $4,000,000 and 640 uctes of land, 
and at a citizens’ meeting in Wabash it was 
unanimously resolved to offer $5,000,000 and 
100 acres. Mankato and Sleepy Eye are also 
in the field.Gov. Hill, of N. Y., has 
appointed James Arkell, Republican, Rail¬ 
road Commissioner, instead of John O’Don¬ 
nell, Democrat, to secure from the Republican 
Senate confirmation of other appointees—it is 
said. The Legislature of British Colum¬ 
bia bus suspended the charter of Vancouver, 
where a mob drove the Chinese into the sea 
last week.“The flock of the Rev. Dr. 
F.dward MeGlyun,’’ the reealitraut priest of 
this city, cabled congratulations to the Pope 
on his fl! birthday and priesthood jubilee, and 
on Thursday the flock and the Dr. received 
the Pope’s blessing by cable. It is thought a 
reconciliation will take place.A Herald 
cablegram says Cardinal Gibbons, of Balti¬ 
more, now in Rome, is pleading the cause of 
Catholic Knights of Labor; it may be so, but 
it is very unlikely that the Herald has ob¬ 
tained the secrets of the Papal conclave.. 
_After all, the Senate Retaliatory Bill has 
been accepted by the House. This bill author¬ 
izes the President to exclude Canadian vessels 
and products from any port of the United 
States. The Belmont or House Bill went a 
step further, and authorized him to exclude 
Canadian products in railroad cars. The 
West doesn’t wish to block railroad traffic, 
as at least 400 carloads u day of Western 
goods come East through Canada, and the 
East—especially New England—doesn’t want 
to lose the large profits from the trade and 
transportation. Many think ihe Senate Bill 
too mild “to bring the Canadians to their sens¬ 
es.”. .. .For once Montreal is to have an Eng¬ 
lish Mayor, J. J. C. A bolt having been elected 
Tuesday, The canvass turned on an inves¬ 
tigation of boodle aldermen, most of them 
French. The Grand Trunk Railroad sided 
with the Frenchmen; the Canadian Pacific, 
with their opponents. Both marched their 
employe's like sheep to the polls; honesty and 
numbers were on the side of the C. 1\, hence 
Abbott’s election...... .Indications are favor¬

The railroads appear to be honestly making 
every effort to conform their methods and ar¬ 
rangements to what they think are the re¬ 
quirements of the Inter-state Commerce Act. 
Pity the real meaning of some parts of the act 
are really so obscure .There’s a report 
that a rival of the Cotton Oil Trust Company 
is to take the field, it is to have a real capi¬ 
tal of $5,000,000 to $10,000,000 against the 
$40,000,000 of its rival—mostly “water.” It 
can pay bigger dividends, therefore, from 
smaller' profits. A Mr. Armour, nephew of 
P. D. Armour, of Chicago, and Oliver Bro¬ 
thers, large cotton-sced oil manufacturers of 
Columbia, S. C., are said to be the leading 
men in it. P, D. A., too, is to take a strong 
hand. Certificates of the Cotton Oil Trust 
Company have dropped 15 points on the ru¬

of cotton-seed oil as an adulterant of lard, 
and some say they huve started the new enter¬

worst ever known. Telegrams yesterday

working position. Similar reports come from 
New Brunswick—where the whole province 
is buried under a smothering load of snow. 
What a terrible storm it must have been in its 
range and intensity! Hero f lic day was the 
very worst within the memory of “the oldest, 
inhabitant”—very heavy snow iu the fore¬ 
noon, rain, sleet and oceans of slush all the 
day, with slippery frozen sidewalks, aud mul¬ 
titudinous tumbles, hurt or broken limbs and 
profanity... 
1 hat swindle, the “British-American Claim 
Agency” hegau business here on Sept. 1 last, 
and had got into the full swing of advertising 
when our exposure came. This was really on 
October 9th, as the Rural is dated a week 
ahead. Wilkinson and Rideout, English fu¬ 
gitives from justice, were “silent partners” in 
the fraud, aud the police here are after them. 
Wilkinson carried on. a similar swindle in 
Loudon, was arrested there, but liberated on 
$10,000 bail, which he deposited in cash 
out of his “profits,” and forfeited by flight to 
this country, bringing with him Ins stock in 
trade, a book containing the 50,000 names of 
suppositious “next to kin,” the chief stock in 
trade of the swindle here. The whole lot of 
the rascals are Englishmen. The extracts from 
newspapers tolling of vast, fortunes were all 
bogus...

The war cloud over Europe is steadily 
growing blacker—more nimbus-like—but 
the threatening point has shifted southward 
from the Franco-German frontier to Bulgaria. 
A rebellion against the Regency ha - been vig¬ 
orously suppressed at Rusted tick and Sdistria, 
but other revolts are threatened. It. looks ns 
if the Czar were fomenting rebellion to give 
him a pretext for occupying the country. 
France and Germany are still at bayonet 
points; may begiu slaughtering each other 
any day: but it looks now as if the first shot 
would be tired in the southeast. The next 
war must be the most terrible ever w aged. 
The armies of all countries were never so 
large: the arms were never so deadly; the ex¬ 
plosives were never so awful. No fortification 
now existing is likely to withstand the new 
French melinite, 16 times more powerful than 
dynamite. Germany is said to have a new 
explosive aLso equally or more powerful than 
melinite, aud Russia is experimenting with 
one aLso.....

A great deal of trouble all over the country 
about the adulteration of cheese. If is charged 
by the Produce exchange here that, Western 
cheese makers have been manufacturing cheese 
from slum-milk, oleomargarine, aud cotton¬ 
seed oil. The practice has inflicted great in¬ 
jury on the trade of the country, and t he Dairy 
Commissioners are called upon to enforce the 
laws. It is stated that tbc exports of cheese 
have fallen from 11,000,000 pounds in 1881, to 
0,500,0(X) in IS'.6, owing in part to the injury 
done to the reputation of American cheese by 
such practices..At Lakeside

Tremor dans corner in mess pork, ribs and 
lard in Chicago. Markets elsewhere boomed 
thereby. Yesterday afternoon May pork was 
lifted from $19 to $21 iu five minutes. Intense 
feeling in the trade against the manipulators, 
who are as yet unknown. Commission houses 
complain that the country operators are 
frightened ami arc withdrawing orders. There 
was a strong advance in lard aud ribs ou ru¬ 
mors that these articles arc to be cornered 
next. Lard rose about 25 cents and ribs 70 
cents. The buying was principally by frights 
ened shorts. The corner scare extended to 
corn, and this cereal was bid lip into activity 
after a long period of dullness, and prices 
rose l cent. 
From present appearance wool growers in 
the West will l ie very firm iu their views of 
prices for the new clip. Last year’s returns 
to producers were excellent on account of 
active competition among buyers. Shearing 
begins in California at the end of the month. 
Flocks in Texas aud the South generally have 
come through the winter iu excellent condi¬ 
tion ; but in Montana and other Northern Ter¬ 
ritories there have been considerable losses. 
Attempts arc being made by speculators to 
“bear” tile market, but growers are hardly 
likely to be influenced by them.
