The Tariff Commission
LISTENING To aornAMlrEs.

itl0iENlNh w
New YORK, October 6.--Betorc the tariff
commission to-day, M, Ira Biersley, of
New York, commission merchant, made an
argument in favor of putting sugar on the
free list, 1t now paid revenue of about
$5J,00O,00O. The principal bject in taxing
1t was 10 encourage the growth of sugar in
Louisiana. Louisiana produced only about
10000 tons year, on which her profit
would not exceed 100000, and tor that
the people We're taxed TO the amount of
Sl0OOo,0N. He suggested that it would
he better to provide that million dollars
for Louisiana in the river and harbor bill |.
Mr. Boctler asked il admitting sugar free
would not destroy sugar culture in Lou.
isiana,
Mr. Biersley admitted that il would, but
no proposed to take upa collection for Lou.
isiana in some other way.
Mr.. Osgood Wclch of Wall street, com.
mission merchant, conceded with the views
expressed by the preceding witness and
added that of every dollar paid in the
United States for sugar 30 cents was tax.

ACCIDENTS AND THEIR PREVENTION

It's alarming to note the frequency OF
fatal accidents OF late in this country, both
by land and water in crowded cities and in
the fields, in factories, theatres, ware.
houses, and in short everywhere. The
record OF the more prominent ones is, for
the past year and even the past month or
two, itself appalling. Just the other day
the Lee, the most magnificent of Mississippi
steamers, burned, carrying with her many
lives to the bottom of the river. A short
while before tho Asia was destroyedin the

HOUSE,
RICHMOND, October 6.--The shaft of the
Midlothian coal-mneS, at Coal Field, Ches.
ter county, in which 30 men lost their lives
last February by an explosion, has been
partially reopened, and yesterday evening
an exploring party descended into the
mine. ON the incline leading to where
men were at work at the time of the
explosion, about 100 feet from the
base OF the shaft, the bodies of two
colored men were recovered and brought TO
the surface Two other bodies were in
sight of the explorers, but owing to mass
oi debris they were unable to get at them.
The colorcd bodies were not recognizable,
except by clothing. The work ofclearing out
the DEBRIS and repairing the mine will be
continued until all the remaining bodies,
twenty-five In number, are brought up,
when the company will commence coaling
operations.

greater rush to our southern winter resorts
this coming winter than there was to the
northern summer resorts during the past
summer. This is the fair way of doing the
thing, and cqualizes and balances the cash

poor monopolists, and these latter to their
very limited means, arising from unpro-

power to make the seasons of rest during

possible for the commission. The country,
of course, will rejoice to know that the

government treasury next year, and, per-
haps an almost indefinite extension of
time for reporting and furnishing these

American liberty and ought to be revised
by materially increasing the duty on most
everything now used in the United States.

The Late pIinister HurIbut.

WASHINGTON, May l9.-The Peruvian Min
lister called upon the President to-day aud
presented an autograph letter from President
Montero, expressing the grief of the Gov
ernment and people of Peru at the death of
Minister Hurlbut and sincere sympathy with
the Government and people of the United
States. The letter refers to the late Minis
ter as "the truest apd noblest champion of
Peru's cause, which is the cause of right and
justice"
that the country in which General Hurlbut
performed his last work had been pleased TO
commend him so graciously, and he as
sured Minister Elmore of his appreciation
of the action aud promised a reply should
he sent at an early day to President Montero.
The presentation of the letter by a noticeable
coincidence took place ON the anniversary
of General Hurlbut's confirmation.

Rights of an Insane Wife.

WASHINGTON, May 19-Mr De Bildt, Sec
retary OF the Swedish Legation in this city,
is a tall, broad-shouldered, fine-lool1ing
young man, with brown mustache, straight
nose, black eyes, and ruddy complexion,
and an erect, stalwart figure. He has
way, and Is seen nearly every
day in the outskirts of the Capital
either riding a fine horse or driving fine
team, sometimes tandem to a dog-cart, and
then again in the ordinary fashion to an En-
glish road wagon. Like a great many
foreigners sasigned ito diplomatic life in
this country. he came here for the
succeeded. In 1879 ne married the
daughter of a prominent Philadelphia
merchant. The lady, however, besides in
heIiting q large fortune, had also a very
careful disposition. and, instead of leaving
her property subject to the disposal of her
husband, she invested the bulk of ii in
United States A per cent registered bonds in
her own name. The De Bildts lived very
handsomely for the next two or three years,
and were we'll known here in Washington,
as they were prominent at nearly every
social gathering. The marriage, like many
Others of American girls with foreigners,
did not, for some reason or other, appear to
be a very happy one. In 1881 Mrs. De Bildt
became insane. and, after being declared un
able to transact business, was placed in q
private asylum at the request of her hus-
band. Since then Mr.. De Bildt has
been trying to get possession
of her property, which is at
present invested as above mentioned. Since
her incarceration as an insane person she
has, of course, been unable to indorse or col
lect the checks issued in her name for the
payment of the interest upon the Govern
ment bonds Mr.. De Bildt has claimed that

asked that the bonds be transferred Il

rae General outlook Improving.

EFrom Advanced Proof Of June Bulletin.]
The general outlook for the weather of the
sgmmerseason in southern and southwestern
sections is improving, owing 10 the continu-
ance of very windy weather in northern and
western sections of Canada and the United
States. Bnt "windy spring makes Sc
we're autumn" therefore the outlook for the
autumn of 1SS2 is increasing in severity.
My theory of weather relationship" is
working just now in a telling manner
all over the Northern Hemisphere,
and 1 feel much greater confidence
in predicting the periods of the more
marked disturbances. Hence, | herewith
reiIerate my previous statements respecting
"a very cold and stormy autumn"
and early setting in of extreme severity,
with heavy snow-falls, this reaching
to remote southerly points. We are
( likely to experience one OF the coldest
periods in a long term of years during the
early part of the winter of 1882 50; but the
cold will come in lump, and the latter
half the winter ls likely to be mild and
open, with an advanced spring.
