KELLOGG AFTER HTII.-An on dit about the
Senate end OF the Capitol Is that Senator Kel-
logg in a speech he intends to deliver in defense
of his title to his seat, will pitch into the per-
sOnal and political record OF Senator Ben Hill
OF Georgia. A Senator said this morning he had
been informed that Mr.. Kellogg had fully posted
himself in regard to the record OF Mr.. Hill, with
the purpose OF attacking it. It is understood
that Mr.. KellOgg's reason for doing this Is that
Mr.. Hill attacked him personally not long ago,
and that he has right to retaliate.

THE SUN CHOLERA MEDICINE
More than twenty years ago, whom it
was found that prev ntion of cholera
was easier than cure, a prescription
drawn up by eminent doctors was
published in the Sun, and it took the
name If the Sun Cholera Medicine.
Our contemporary never lent it's
name to a better article. We have
seen it in constant use for nearly two
score wears, and found it to be the best
remedy for looseness of the bowels yet
devised.
No one who has this by him, and
takes it in time, will ever have the
cholera.
We commend it to all our friends.
Even when no cholera is anticipated.
II is an excellent remedy for ordinary
summer complaints, collie, diarrhee,
dysentery, &c. ..o
Take equal parts of tincture of Cay
enne peper, tincture of opium, tine
tnre of rhubarb, essence of pepper
mint and spirits of camphor. Mix
we'll Dose. Is to 30 drops in little
cold water, according to age and vio--
lence of symp oms, according to age
and violence of symptoms, repeated
every fifteen or twenty minutes until
relief is obtained.-Journdt Of Com

Flames from a Volcano.
TERRIFIC ERUPTION OF THE
LONG SILENT FUEGO IN
GUATEMALA.

EMITTING COLUMN OF FIRE FIVE
HUNDRED FEET HIGH-THE SUR
ROUNDING COUNTRY ILLUMINATED
FOR so MILEs-CLoUDs OF DUST AND
SMOKE.
PANAMA, July 17.-The volcano
Fuege, near the city of Antigua, Qua
temala, has, after many years of 81
lence and apparent rest, in which there
was little to determine its character as
volcano exceptfoccasional emissions
of smoke and odd rumbling noises
from within, burst out in an angry and
terrific eruption. So far as we know,
there was nothing during the few days
which preceded the explosion to indi-
cate any exceptional activity in the
volcanic agencies which are perpetu-
ally at work in that region, and there
fore the outburst, at 3 a. M, on June
30, was equally surprising and terrible
for the dwellers in the villages and
country about. Asseen from the deck
of the Pacific Mail steamer Whining
ton by the officer on watch, at dis
tance, as the crow flies, of nearly fifty
miles, the spectacle was magnificent.
From the highest peak of Fuego great
columns of fame darted up into the
air to height, as nearly as could be
determined, of from 400 to 500 feet.
The surrounding country to the east
and south was illuminated by the tre-
mendous glare of the flames, while to
the northward and W. stward the clouds
of dust and smoke which accompanied
. ,L La xrIa IL
country.
An eye witness says "The first
grand column of fire rose at least 500
feet in height, solid and smooth, and
then the top, expanding, opened out
like an umbrella, the sparks corusca-
ting like those from brilliant rocket.
The pulsations of flame during the
first two hours of the eruption were
about fifty seconds apart, strong and
regular.

Another i5o-Ton Cotton Press
TO BE BUILT AT SCOTT FOUNDRY

TO BE BUILT AT SCOTT FOUNDRY.
The contract for the construction of
Morse cotton press, weighing about
150 tons with 90-inch cylinder, has
Just been received by the Reading iron
works, and work on it is to be COM
menced Immediately at the Scott foun-
dry. Some of the patterns were taken
from the pattern Shop yesterday and
placed in the foundry, and the first
castings will be made to-day or to-mor-
row. This is the third cotton press
for Scott foundry this summer. The
last portions of the first press ordered
were shipped last Saturday, and rapid
progress is being made on the second
one, the principal castings having been
made. The order Just received is later
than orders generally come in for cot
ton presses, as they are usually all Tin
ished and shipped in July and August:
From six to eight weeks are required
to build large cotton press. To fin
ish the one shipped last week, within
the time specified, required considera-
BILE night work.
Last year four cotton presses were
built at the Scott foundry, three Morse
presses, and one Gilmore press, the
largest kind made.
Business is very brisk at the Scott
works.

WONDERFUL GROWTH OF OUR TRADE

THE AGGREGATE OF LAST WEARS Ex-
PORTS THIRTY PER CENT. LARGER
THAN THE PREVIOUS sYEAR-INTEREsT-
ING REVENUE STATISTICS.
WARRINGTON, July 26.-rhe Chief of
the Bureau of Statistics reports to the
Secretary of tho Treasury as folio VS. ::
Daring the year just closed both the
value of the imports of merchandise in
to, and the value of the exports of mer-
chandise from. the United States, were
larger than during any preceding year In
the history of the country. The total
exports of the year amounted to $780,
793, ,924, and the imports to 1867 1886, ,565
The value of the exports OF merchandise
during the year ended June 80, 1880, ex-
ceeded the value of the exports of meT-
chandise during the preceding year about
S125, 200, 900, or 10 per cent, and the val
ue of the imports of merchandise during
the year ended June 80, 1880, exceeded
the value of such imports during the pre-
cedIng year about 1929, ,000, 900, or 80 per
cent. The increase in the value of i'm
ports of merchandise exceeded the in
crease in the value of the exports nearly
S97, ,O00, 900. The value Of the imports
fiscal year just closed, exceeded the value
of such imports and exports during the
preceding year about S347, ,OOO, 900, an in
crease OF 80 percent
The rapid growth of the foreign COM
merce of the country is rikingly exhib-
tied BY the fact that the value of the i'm
ports and exports of merchandise during
the fiscal year just closed amounted TO
81, ,5O3, ,679 ,4s9, being about 81 per cent.
greater than the value OF the imports
and exports OF 1870, and nearly ll9 per
cent. greater than the value of the i'm
ports and ports of 1860. During the
year lust closed, for the first time since
1861, the imports of coin and bullion ex-
ceeded the exports of the same, the ex-
cess being 1891 ,391. The exports OF
coin and bullion during the year ended
June 80, 1880, were about 81 300 900 less
than during the preceding fiscal year,
and the imports of coin and bullion dur
ing the year ended June 30, 1880, ex-
ceeded the imports during the preceding
dsc al year about S72, 100000.
The annual official statement of re-
ceipts from the two great sources of in
ternal revenue, spirits and tobacco,
shows an increase in the former from
So, ,0O0, 900 to $60,000,000. Last year
spirits and tobacco furnished 81 per
cent of the internal revenue receipts,
and for 1880 il is even greater. The
nearly completed tables show that Hin.
ois produces nearly one-thlrd the entire
revenue from spirits. The Chicago dis
trict paid 81, 900, 20; the Peoria district,
sic, $50, 900; and the Springfield district,
S7O4 900. The receipts in the Chicago
distrlct incref 1ed 100000; in The Peoria
district, 81, SOC, 900; and IN the Springfield
district decreased $500, ,000 The receipts
in the first Ohio district were 50 900 900,
being an increase of 81 5000 In the
n. Louis district the revenue varies only
slightly, being s1,9OO,OOO. In the 81.
Lonis district ST. 100000 were paid for
axes on tobacco, an Increase of $500, 900,

THRILLING SCENE AT A FIRE IN A
TENEMENT HOUSE.

TENEMENT HOUSE.
The simple record made by the New
York police Yesterday morning-"Fire,
No. 82S East Hudson street; four story
brick tepement"-gave no evidence of
the gallant act of heroism that marked
the scene, and, as fireman said, "Made
your heart come right up in your
mouth" The alarm was struck al a
quarter past A, just as day was fully
breaking, and scarce had the first signal
been given ere Foreman Tomkins, of
Hook and Ladder No. II, located at No.
TAP Fifth street, hurried his men out |;
"for," said he, sit is tenement house
district, and minute is as good as an
hour sometimes" The moment the
truck turned the corner of avenue b the
men saw that lives were endangered.
From the third floor, amid the dense
black volume of smoke, was seen for a
moment the figure of a woman. As the
truck stopped in front Of the house she
had disappeared, and the impossibility
of her living over minute or minute
and half in that poisonous vapor fired
the men with extra exertion.
"Of with that side ladder, boys, and
up at once" shouted Tompkins, and
as the ladder was raised, up its rungs
went Thomas Larkin and directly after
him driver Jacob Reiter, SO that the in
slant the ladder fell against the window
sill Larkin was inside fumbling for the
suffocaLing beings there. At this mo
ment every window In the neighborhood
was filled with anxious spectators, as
was the street below, every eye having
watched the movements Of the two dar-
ing men on the ladder; and when Lar
kin's hands reappeared, clasping child
of five years, which Reiter took charge
of and slid down with, such shout
went up as thrilled every heart in the
dense throng. Another moment and
Larkin again appeared with the form of
a woman, aud again and again the
shouts rose from the multitude, and Peo-
pie olapped their hands; and when it
was ascertained that both the rescued
ones were alive and would quickly be

The Wetmore-AmOsesey Affair.
THE SUICIDE STORY DENOUNCED
AsABLACKMAILING SCHEME.

THE SUICIDE STORY DENOUNCED
AS ABLACKMAILINa SCHEME.
A Paris special cable despatch to
the New York World says
The reports sent to America of
the suicide of Mrs. Annie Wetmore,
the divorced wife of citizen of New
York, at the residence of the di-
vorced English wife of Lord Albert
Pelham-Clinton, in this city, are
likely to become the subject of a
serious judicial investigation. There
appears to be no reason whatever to
suppose that the unfortunate Mrs.
Wetmore committed suicide at all,
her death being officially reported
as caused by congestion Of the brain.
The story Of the suicide is to-day be-
lieved to have been concocted by a
clique of persons in this city of var
ious nationalities but one social
class, in the hope of extorting hush
money from a conspicuous foreigner
formerly acquainted with Mrs. Wet
more. 1t is a painful story and the
details will probably throw very
unpleasant light on certain aspects
of the press in the French capital.
Referring to the obove despatch
the World says -
AS the story of the suicide came
weighted with wild and improba-
BILE tale of broken marriage en-
gagement it may be worth while to
mention, in confirmation of the ver-
sion which reaches us to-day, that
under the decree divorcing Mrs.
Wetmore from her husband it was
legally impossible for her to con-
tract or fulfil any engagement of
marriage whatever. The divorce
was obtained by Mr.. Wetmore ex-
clusively on the ground of desertion,
and this is not recognized by the
tribunals of this State, of France, or
of England as so dissolving the mar
riage tie that the party against whom
the divorced is pronounced can leg
ally contract marriage either in this
State, in France, or in England
This circumstance seems to have
been overlooked by the weavers
of the flimsy romance with which
this melancholy close of a melan-
choly tale has been surrounded in
Paris.
