This was entirely without foundation,
as the product was too great for any
Combination to control.
He said the freight tariffs were ex-
orbitant and unless the people took
some action they would increase at
such a rate as to increase famine In
New England. To-day, few men like
Fisk, Vanderbilt andlDrew hold keys
10 the great Western granary, and we
could get supplies only at their bid
ding. He showed how forty millions
in railroad stock had been issued by
the Railroad corporation aud that the
consumers at the coast were obliged
to pay the additional tariff necessary
to meet the dividend declared on this
fictitious stock.
He quoted the action of the Massa-
chusetts Legislature forbidding the
issue, by the Boston & Albany Rail
road, of additional stock, unless cash
therefor was actually paid in, and
stated that like action by the Legis-
lature of New York and a few other
States, would materially cheaper the
neeessaries of life. Instead of paying
tax on shares that have not cost the
holders cent the people should re-
ceiye their grain from the West at
the price ruling there, adding only
the aese1l and necessary cost of
transportation.
Quiney was followed by a number
of weakly men and prominent mem
bers of the Legislature, nearly every
one agreeing essentially with the
prominent ideas expressed by him.

A l.rp4sI Father.

LOUISVILLE, January 14.-A few
nights since man named Weathers,
living in the lower portion of the city.
while under the influence of liquor
asked his little boy, four years of age,
to spell a word which it was impossi-
BILE for the child to do; Weathers then
seized him by the hair, picked up a
stick and beat the child until the flesh
upon its body was lacerated in many
places. He needed not the cries of
the little one who pleaded for mercy.
He picked it up and held It over hot
fire in the stove until its whole body
was burned to blister. Weathers was
subsequently arrested.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 14-Ncon.-
Caldwell's jewelry store is demolish-
ed, Orne's carpet store very badly
damaged, Howells paper hanging
warehouse destroyed, and the flames
are now confined to the mass of paper
in the ruins. The person arrested as
an incendiary, has proved to be a
man set to watch one of the doors to
prevent the ingress of strangers. The
fire originated in Caldwell's store by
the explosion of the boiler attached
to the heating apparatus. Seven OF
the clerks, who slept in the second
story, barely escaped alive, all being
badly burned. Keepers Art Gallery
was burned, entailing heavy loss of
valuable paintings. The loss to Cald-
we'll is unknown 1t is supposed that
great quantities of valuable diamonds,
ETC.. will be recovered In the safes
The loss of Howell is about quarter
of million of dollars. Insured.

thing to him aud he has written
nothing to me which [ feel at liberty
to publish without his full authority
unequivocally expressed. Your reso-
luton declares that this authority has
been given. but lest there may be
misunderstanding in relation TO the
matter, I have concluded that my duty
under the delicate circumstances IN
which I am placed, would be
best performed by placing copies OF
the correspondence at the control OF
Lieutenant Governor Cumback. L,
therefore, simultaneously with the
sending in Of this communication, will
cause to be placed In the hands OF the
Senator from Parke, a sealed package
addressed to Lieutenant Governor
Cumbaek, which contains copies OF
the correspondence. If there Is no
misunderstanding or mistake about
the authority stated in your resolu-
ton, the copies may be laid before
the Senate. If there is any misun-
derstanding or mistake, Lieutenant
Governor Cumback will have the
copies under his own control, and can
do with them whatever he may judge
to be proper. CONRAD BAKER
After the reading of the message,
Senator Cravens moved to make the
correspondence the special order of
business for to- day at 10 o'clock.
1t is expected that there will be
some spicy debating on the occasion,
but the indications last evening were
that it would be conducted with much
more caImuess and much less bitter
ness on the part of these who will
most un nluestionably engage in it-at
least it is to behoped SO.
