A Revolution In American Indus stry-A
Point for Couutry MERCHANTS

The Baltimore Sun thinks 1t probable
that great sales of eottons, woOlens aud
other goods OF domestic manufacture.
such as recently took place In New
York, will hereafter be Of annual reour-
renee. IL such should be the case, It
will be equivalent to revolution In
these branches OF American industry.
1t will cut down very materially the
sales OF the jobbers, and OF such great
houses as. the Stewards, Clahins and
Lords-so far as these peculiar fabrics
are concerned and will bring the man.
ufacturers into direct communication
with all classes OF buyers, from the
retail dealers In cities to the coun-
try merchants from remote and out
Of-the-way places In the interior.
As 1t Is, since the introduction
of railways and the ease and speed with
which any order, however small. may
be filled, the old custom of LAYING III
large stocks OF goods by country mer-s
chants In the spring and fall has been
abandoned to very considerable e1-
tent, and orders are given from time to
time only for the goods of which the
stock in store is exhausted. The advan-
tages to country merchants by this
change Is that they need not keep on
hand 80 large q stock of goods as for.
merly, and consequently do not require
so large capital to carry on their busl-
ness; they can also replenish more fre-
quently with newer and more attractive
styles, and as short credits are the rule
they can strike an average OF their bills.
IL, In future, they are enabled, at great
auction sales occurring periodically, to
buy goods that are In general use and
not subject to the fluctuations of fashion
at first hands and at the lowest prices,
for four months paper, they will be
further bensflted, but the middemen
will suffer more or less by the change.

LA Crosse wis Leader


A book agent recently met with q
serious accident In the suburbs of La
Crosse. He was walking along the rail-
road when freight train came along
The unfortunate man was struck by the
engine and knocked directly across the
track. some fifty three cars passing over
him. He was then tumbled down q bank
800 feet high. over stones and stumps,
and Just as he got to the edge OF the
river he struck pile-driver that was at
work, and, his head lying on the top Of
the pile for u minute Or two, the pom
derous hammer descended, striking him
on the cheek, bruising him somewhat.
The shock rolled him into the river Just
as an up-river packet was passing, and
by some mishap the unfortunate man
was entangled in one Of the wheels, and
whirled round and round for an hour
and half before he was discovered aud
released. He was picked up nearly
senseless and removed to the cabin,
where his wants were supplied. After
he had eaten a hearty meal, he was
approached by the captain, who asked:
rs there anything you would like to
have?"
"No, no." replied the canvasser,

DEATH ON TINE RAIL.
The Killins Of Mr. J. Q. Bennett.

The Killins Of Mr.. j. o. Bennett.
Sunday night, aboutS o'clock, Mr.. J.
o. Bennett, residing at No. 42s Common
street, was thrown from an excursion
train on the New Orleans and Mobile
Railroad at Lee Station and instantly
killed.
The body Of the unfortunate man.was
brought to the city last night by q
special train and taken to his late resi-
dence.
An interview with Mr.. Kelly by a
DEMOCRAT reporter elioited the facts
that Mr.. Bennett was sitting on the
platform OF one OF the passenger
Coaches, and az there was another
train in close proximity preced-
ing them, Mr.. Bennett was
afraid that collision was inevitable, and
therefore was continually looking out
to see IL he could catch glimpse OF the
coming train.
When near the spot where he met his
fate a gentleman remarked, eve are
about twelve miles from the city,"
The gentleman had hardly made the
remark, when Mr.. Bennett again leaned
out to see IL he could scan the near
train, as he did so his head struck
against pile OF cross ties, breaking his
neck and killing him instantly.
As there are several stories as to the
conduct OF the conductor In this sad
affair. we refrain from present CON-
ment

WHERE N THE MONEY 2

The people OF this city will be obliged
to Mr.. II. G. Dibble, who Is and has
been acting as Assistant Attorney Cen
eral, II he will promptly tell the where
abouts OF something over thirty thou
sand dollars OF back taxes which were
recently collected by the sheriff and
turned into his hands. The regular
taxes for July have been collected and
paid into the Treasury. But theirs are
$9o,92l % OF back taxes which were col
lected by the sheriff and paid to Mr..
Dibble. Of which there Is no account at
the Treasury. OF this sum, $12,797 80
were collected in the First District ;
ss5Ol II in the Second: $16Ol 18 In the
Third $l612 05 in the Fourth; $5424 In
the Fifth. and 1896 80 in the Sixth Dis
trict.
This money has been traced to Dib-
BILE; he should have paid 1t to the tax
collectors, who before this should have
paid 1t into the treasury The money,
we are informed, Ia not In the treasury.
Where, then, is it Is Mr.. Dibble hold
ing it for campaign expenses? Or, have
the collectors and himself seen the
handwriting on the wall, and is their
purpose to hold on to all they collect,
that after November they may emigrate
With it? Some explanation OF this mat
ter just now is required.

rated with flags OF all nations.

wherry races, two barge races and a gig

we'll ahead all through the race, and
coming In winner by three lengths.

In the four-oared barge race, a fair
start Was got, but the breaking Of an oar
caused the race to be abandoned.

had entered, Messrs. Lusk. Monlin,
Pendergast. Power, and Carey as COX
swain, in the Jenny Clark, aud Messrs.
Ottesen, Brennan, Vale, Wilson, and

ahead and came in victorious by seven
lengths. Time, II :36.
In the last race, . wherry race, be-
tween Messrs. Powers and Lightley.
Powers came in an easy winner in II :2s.
