A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT occurred
near Dixon, iii. on Sunday last, oc-
casioned by the falling Of the Trus-
dale iron bridge across Rock River.
A crowd of about three hundred
persons among whom were women
and children, had gathered on the
bridge To witness the baptism of
some recent converts to the Baptist
Churches in Dixon, when without
warning the bridge gave way, pre-
cipitating more than two hundred
into the river, cansing a terrible
scene. The sight ef the victims
struggling to free themselves from
the ruins OF the lfidge and from
each other. was so distracting that
many Of the crowd on the hanks ran
Willy to and fro unable to render
assistance. Others. with more
nerve, speedily brought ropes,
planks, and boats, and went to the
rescue. Thirty two dead bodies
were picked up, and twenty four
were rescued alive bot injured some
Of them fatally. The total loss
seventy six killed. and missing, and
thirty two wounded.

Rontes to Vienna.

Intending visitors to Vienna will
be interested to hear that they will
have choice of something like thir-
ty different routes, or rather Of rail
road and steamboat combinations, to
choose from, when they reach Eng
land. The London Standard is the
authority for the statements which
we summarize in regard to the lead
ing roads to Vienna. This journey
can be done in fifty hours by way OF
CALAIS, Cologne, Darms>adt, Nurn-
berg and Passau, at . cost Of $36
gold. This is the price of what is
called a a "mixed ticket" lie e. first
class to Cologne, and seeend-elsss
cars from that point. By way OF
Cologne, Frankford, MVnich and
Salzburg the journey requires twen-
ty-four hours more, and costs $45.66
first class ticket. and $50. 80 second
class. Taking the somewhat longer
channel passage between Newhaven
and Dieppe, and the railroad connec-
tons by way of Paris, Strasbourg,
Stuttgart, Augsburg and Munich,
the trip will cost $43.72, gold; or a
return ticket can be had for $G6.72.
Four days are required for the jour
ney by this route. Then there is
the cheapest of all the routes, that
by Hamburg or Bremen and the
East German Railroads., which can
be traversed for $32.48, gold, for a
first class ticket and the almost
equally cheap route by Harmich and
Rotterdam, or Antwerp, Cologne,a and
the Rhine, Darmstadt, or Frankfort,
Munich, and Salzburg, for which a
first class return ticket can be had
for $50, gold, and a second-elas re
turn for $40. By this last route the
traveller can see the best part of the
Rhine, can spend a few hours in Co
logne, night in Munich, and can
accomplish the single journey in
four days.-Neac York Times.

OK Saturday the Cleveland Bar Association
passed, with but three dissenting votes risO-
hilton expressing their opinions as to the
course of Judge Q. T Sherman in the New
York brokers' tax case, and as TO Judge Sher-
mans letters to lie Grand Lockwood theTsaP-
on. The resolution is as follows:
ResolUed, That we have read with deep re-
get the evidence of Hon, Charles +. Sherman,
Judge Of the United States District Court foE
the Northern District of Ohio, before the Con-
gressional Committee, together with his let
ters msntsonsd therein, and in view thereof,
without indicating what action should be
taken In his case by Congress, we declare it to
be the sense of this bar that the usefulness OF
Judge Sherman has been seriously impaired
by the facts and disclosures above mentioned,
and thst we cannot extend to him the conf
denee so nscesssry between bench end bar IN
the proper administration Of jnstiee.
The above action has long been dslibered
bv the lawyers Of this city, and has been taken
only after mature and conscientious convic-
ton OF the duty to their duty to the public
and themselves. 1t will be impossible for
Judge Sherman to ignore so temperate and
Judicial, but at the same time emphatic and
decided an act of condemnation a. that pro-
nonneed upon his conduct by the attorneys
who practice in his court. And with Judge
Sheraan's own letters and testimony before
the public, no effort which he or his friends
may make to divert attention from the main
issue OF shirk responsibility by throwing the
onus and odium Of the transaction upon any
second or thiId party, can be regarded as more
than miserable shlft.-Leader.
The question naturally most in
teresting now is, will Judge Sher-
man take the delicate hint conveyed
in the above resolution and resign.

I
THE Columbus Dispatch assert:
fGpon authority" that neither Of the
Ohio Senator's have taken the bach
pay voted by the salary grab clause
of the Appropriation Bill. 1t says.
They did not take the back pay,nor did they
ever intend TO take it. The day after the bill
passed through Congress, they both decided
that they would not touch it nor any portion
Of it, but would quietly haye it covered into
the Treasury of the United States, where il
will require another appropriation act to reach
it. The very first, it seems, 70 resolve upon
this course were the distinguished Senators
from Ohio; but 1t seems also that they pre-
ferred not to advertise what they considered
It proper for themselves to do under tho retro
active clause of the salary act"
Their names do not appear on the
list of those refusing to take the
back pay, but the N. Y. Tribune adj
mits that several gentlemen had
conveyed the money into the Treas
ury with instructions not to make
the matter public, which accords
with the statement of the Dispatch
and may be taken to refer to the
Ohio Senators, These men made
mistake, however, in endeavoring
keep their action in the premises
to from their constituents.
Their acts are matters which their
constituents should know, and es-
pecially on such swindle as the
back-salary, and they do themselves
injustice in permitting the people
to think they had soiled their hands
with illegal gains. The people
should require every one Of their
representatives to show their hands,
or accept the fate of poor Dog
Tray y''-repudiaton for being caught
in company with those who perpe-
trated or accepted the steal.

Knox, of Harrison county, has intro

luton giving T. ,0nsent of this

tion being that as no limit is fixed

The prize package boy is doomed
No one who has Travelled on an
American railway has failed to meet
him. or to be tempted to murder by
his shrill voice and persistent impu-
dence. His, packages consisting of
unwholesome candy and occasional
bits of brass jewelrV, are revolving
to any properly constituted mind /;
while the boy himself, with his ejec-
tionable voice aud his exasperating
habit of perpetually slamming the
car doors, is loathsome in the last
degree. The Assembly of New
York has passed a bill suppressing
him upon all the railways of that
State, and other Legislatures will
have to follow this example unless
they are willing to see our railways
built up at the expense oftheir own.
There is but one effect of the bill
which can prove anything but an
unalloyed blessing. Heretofore the
first thought of any one upon read
ing of a railway collision, has been
the wild hope that a prize package
boy had been killed. With his sup
preston will vanish the only posi-
BILE consolation which can ever he
drawn from a railway accident.

TIE House at Columbus on Mon
day passed resolution of censure
relating to the salary steal of the
the late Congress, as follaws:
Resolved, That those members of Congress
who voted to amend the appropriation bill SO
az to increase their own salaries, retroactive
in effect, and those who voted against such in
crease and yet accepted for their own benefit
the increase, are deserving Of the censure of
the people of Ohio.
The House did a good thing in
setting its seal of condemnation up
on all who took the back salary as
thsse who voted for it. OfaIl things
else public men should be consist
ent. And in this case they could
have given proof Of their honesty
and consistency by refusing to take
that which they lad opposed as a
wrong, and by so doing also placed
on record a deservad rebuke of those
who had forced the measure through
Congress.

Hon. JOHN I. Orr, Minister to st.
Petersburg, and but recently arrived
there, is dead. The news came by
cable on Monday night last. He
was born in 1892, at CraytonYille,
South Carolina, graduated from the
University of Virginia in IS4S,
elected in 1874 to the State Legisla-
ture, returned the next year, and in
1S4S was elected to Congress, and
reelected several times in success
sion. He was an inactive secession
ist during the war, but at its close
accepted the situation and did much
toward producing a good under
standing in his State with the gener-
al government, which was increased
by his election as Governor of the
State in 1865 and his recent appoint
ment to foreign mission.
