THE RIVER,



How the BORtmen ReeI UP at PIttsbH Hrgh.
The Pittsburgh Leader, OF yesterday
Sunday contains an interview with some
Of the rivermen up there in regard to the
prospects asto damages In case Of speedy
breakup in the ice, from which we made
the following extract:
Mr.. Harry Brown states that he does
not think the coalmen will suffer to any
very great extent, as there are but % few
barge loads OF coal lying in the pools;
however, il the rise is sudden we can only
look for it to sweep everything as usual.
There will be but little coal lost, but the
damage to- empty barges, no doubt, will
be immense, for the pools are full Of them.
and they are. toa greatextent, unprotected.
The steamboats, in harbor here are, it Is
said by men OF experience, in little danger.
'For," emphatically stated an old Pitts.
burgh riverman, 'this is tho, best and
safest harbor from here 10 New Orleans.
1t is protected by the dam and two lines
Of bridge piers above, which chop up the.
ice so fine it can do but little injury TO the
il is further ruhored that the under
writers will employ tugs to demolish the
ice from the Point to the first dam on the
first sign OF break up. There are many
passenger and tow boats froze up at differ
ent points along the river between here
and Cincinnati, andiit is oil course expect
ed that they will have hard time Of it.
The Ice is now eighteen inches thick in
places, and Of course will handle, every
l. 10 nE{E,,n, t,.a aa.,
tact with. The Y0ughiogheny river is re-
ported to be frozen stiff to the bottom.
There are so many opinions pro and
con in respect to the time when the rivers
will sever their ice sheets that it is hardly
worth while giving any Of them. Some
Of them accept the breakup OF the Kama
wha, which occurred yesterday, and swept
away great deal OF property, as a fore
runner Of an early smash-up all around.
Others predict that the winter is not more
than half over and that good skating can
be found most anywhere in this vicinity
until about the middle Of February while
others place the date Of the event couple
OF weeks sooner.
In the east the Ice boats are used extern
sively to break up the ice in and around
the harbors. These boats are pointed with
iron or steel on the bow, and The ma
chinery which propels them is made so
powerful that they cut their way through
the ice much In the same manner that a
snow plow on locomotive does its way
through the snow. In this manner a
channel Is cut through, and the ice grad
ually broken up and allowed to float out.
The reporter inquired the reason why
the plan was not adopted here, and was
informed that the channels were SO
narrow in the rivers here that the plan
would not be practicable, as the ice is
bound to gorge into the narrow places.
Again, as the Ohio Is likewise closed, the
chopped.up ice could not get out and
would only lay until it would freeze solid
again. At New York, Boston, and other
eastern harbors, there is an open sea for
It to drift out into, while, here the Ohio
would have to be open to the mouth in
order to allow what would be cut up 70
float away. f'NRN't z" ".'H-E't'p

New York Times. ....
The average grain product OF Europe is
reported at 5000, 900, 900 bushels, OF which
Russia raises one-third, France and Ger
many $40, 100000 bushels each, and Aus.
tria 5OO,OOO,OOO. The United States pro-
duces l,6OO,OO0,OO0 bushels (about the
the quantity that Russia docs) which in
proportion to our population, is much
larger production than any other country
can boast Of. Counting our inhabitants at
4O,0O0,000, we raise forty bushels per head,
and Europe's inhabitants at SOC, ,000, 900,
she raises but sixteen bushels per head.
Russia has twenty-six and Great Brit
ain only four bushels per head. The
amount Of grain consumed being gencr-
ally fifteen bushels per head, We produce
nearly three times as much as We want,
Russia almost twice what she needs, and
Great Britain not more than one-tourth OF
her requirement. Thus 1t will DO seen
that the production far exceeds the con-
sumption but the excess Is absorbed by
breweries and distilleries, at home and
abroad, which, more than any other cause,
keep up the price Of breadstutfs. Some
men have to pay dearer for what they
drink than for what they eat, because, per
haps, eating is q necessity, and drinking,
for the most part, Is much worse than q
supertiuity.

New York Commercial Bulletin.
The tobacco trade generally with few
exceptions, are now united in favor OF a
reduction Of the tax on tobacco to sixteen
cents Per pound; the idea being To get a
test Of the proposition in the Senate as
soon as possible. The Treasury Depart

However, tho question will come up in
Committee next Tuesday, and bo con.

The Treasury people take the ground
that the people OF the country prefer that
whisky and tobacco, being luxuries, shall
pay alundred millions OF tho revenue
that is needed. They take the ground
that to reduce the tax on tobacco would
not cheaper it to the consumer, o. make
them smoke or chew a particle more, Mr.,
Burwell, who is lobbying for the tobacco
manufacturers, never smoked or chewed
in his life. Mr.. Spence, OF Cincinnati,
who has taken such an active part in favor
OF the reduction, never chewcd nor
smoked; and Mr.. Helms, Of New York,
another Of the strong advocates, has moi
Chewed nor smoked for years. And vet
these three gentlemen maintain as a strong
point in favor OF a reduction, that It would
increase consumption and thus make up
the deficiency in the tax, which Is now d

would not use tobacco even Il L was un.

pie say that tho argument that to reduce
the tax would stop all agitation OF the TAI
question is not true; that the agitation
can not be stopped. Years ago
when these gentlemen were here
arguing in favor OF q uniform tag
they agreed that there should be no NOR
