Appalling Scene.

Last Sunday calamity took place in
this city that filled with horror the
stoutest heart. The Democratic flag
staff, near the City Hotel, being dis.
covered to be leaning from its base, it
was conjectured thatit was on the point
of falling, and the City Trustees set
about having it taken down. To this
end they employed Nichoio Blacovich,
of this city, to unship the topmast. He
assembled by rope to distance of
ninety feet-the length of the main.
mast-when the pole fell with a ire
mendous crash, tearing away corner
of the hotel porch and shade trees in
front. Nicholo was killed instantly.
The disaster took place in the presence
of host OF citizens-men, women, and
children-many of whom turned away
their faces from the awful scene De
ceased was single man, and has a
father living. The flagstaff was rotten
at the base and eaten away by grubs.-

it was dangerous for her to appear on the
street or at the hail. and would not furnish an
escort, but sent men to keep the str sets clear
and preserve the peace. The carnage came
for Mrs. Fair, but she kept close in her room
with dozen friends. The crowd hooted and
yelled, and men tried to force their way
up the stairs, but were driven back. In
about two hours but few remained AID all was
quiet" -..-.-
The question of calling convention to form
a State Constitution for Washington Territory

A tremendous sensation has been caused in
San Francisco by the publication of the par
ticulars of an alleged plot by Laura D. Fair
and a restaurant waiter named Frank to poison
Judge Dwinelle and the counsel for the peo-
pie, Alex. Campbell. The plot was formed
before the second trial, and was revealed by
Frank. He said that Mrs. Fair tried to induce
him to put poison in decanter at Dwinelle's
house or a milk-can at the door. A plan of
Judge Dwinelle's house was found in the pos
session of Frank.

4 Gigantic Corporation.

The Fpaaacier prints a tabular state
ment of miles of road controlled by
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company,
either by lease or by ownership of ma
jority of the stock. The list embraces
sixty-three railroads, including those
now being constructed. These are all
made tributary to the main line from
Philadelphia to Pittsburgh, and their ter
mini are distributed in nearly every
State in the Union. Including the
Union, Central, and Texas Pacifcs, the
total extent of lines will be nearly 15,-
600 miles and the grand aggregate OF
capital invested in them will be at least
$670,000,000. Besides these, are $50
miles of canals and line of four steam.
ships now building to run between Phil
adelphia and Liverpool. The total
capital invested in these means of trans
portation, controlled by one organiza,
ton, will scarcely fall short of $780,
100000. 1t will thus be seen that nearly
one-third of the railroads Of the United
States are under the control of few
individuals in one corporation. In view
Of the vast political power which could
be welded by combination of the
major portion of the railroad interest of
the United States, this is a significant
fact. In commercial point of view it
is also worthy of note that all the trans
continental roads will be controlled ia
Philadelphia.

How a Republic Pays its Debts.

The indemnity extracted FROM France
by Germany was 100000, 900 francs, of
which 500,000,000 were to be paid by
the 10th of June, 1871, 1,000,O00,000
during that year, and 500, 100000 on the
1st of May, 1872. The rest was payable
on the I'd of May, 1874. 1t would APP
pear, from the message of M. Theirs,
that France was paying the debt faster
than it metured. Within these three
months SO0,OOO,O00 francs have been
paid, and in December 200, 100000 francs
more will be handed over. The world
responded favorably and promptly to
the appeal of France, and half OF the
loan has been realized. There is de-
felt of l32,0OO,000 francs for the past
year; but the equilibrium will be re-
stored in 1873, and there will be sur
plus in 1874 ~

South American Railway Enterprise

Within the next ten years South
America is likely to possess a Mount
Gents tunnel of its own. A prominent
engineer, Juan de Quartet, has secured
the co operation of number of heavy
capitalists Tor the construction of rail-
way, the bonds of which the Peruvian
Government will guarantee. This road
is to be built from Payta, the principal
port between Panama and CAllao, to
Sullana, thence continue under the
Cordilleras at Huancabamba with a
double track, cross the Amazon at
Bellavista, and terminate at st. Cruz,
where the Huallaga joins the latter
river. The work is to be completed in
1888, and will Immediately lead to the
establishment of a new line of steamers
on the Amazon, by which the shortest
route from the west coast of South
America and Europe will be secured.

Franklin. The first experiment in war,
was made in the harbor of Brest in 1901
