Roof Falls In-SeveraI Men Killed and
 a Number Injured.
 BUFFALO, Nov. 9.-At 2:2O this afternoon during high wind the roof of Jacob Dolds barrel factory and storehouse on Williams street fell in with crash, carrying with it the upper floor and cornices. There were twenty men in the building at the time and for few moments there was panic and con- fusion mingled with the screams and groaps of the injured. The whole upper portion of the structure, which was four stories high and built of wood, yielded to the heavy gale and was reduced to wreck. Two men are dead with at least one more fatally hurt. Four others were rescued alive but badly hurt.
 A force of firemen and police officers were summoned and at once began the work of extricating the bodies from beneath the lum- ber The dead are as follows Jacob Schundahl, the foreman, aged about thirty; his back was broken and he died about an hour after the accident William Ecknor, a laborer, left leg broken above the knee; when he was found he was still breathing, but died short ly after being removed. John Otto, car penter and Johanna Gradel, 8 laborer, were found dead in the ruins. The injured are: Charles E. FiHter, jaw broken and otherwise
 
 Andrew Hess, injured about the head, and A. Pollack had one of his legs broken and was injured internally. Just before the accident half the force had been ordered to another building to preform some other work and es- capped from the wreck.
 The building on which the men were work ing was to have been used for cattle pen on the ground floor, a cooper shop on the floor above and the upper floors for storage pur- poses. It was to have cost about $5,O00. A TugbOat Blown to Atoms - Sev era1
 Lives Lost.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-About II o'clock this morning terrible explosion took place on board tugboat which was steaming up the Harlem river while opposite the Ward s Island ferry at One Hundred and Tenth street. The boat was blown to atoms and the splinters and blanks were thrown high into the air. The tug sank almost instant y,carrying with it the larger part of her crew. Small boats from all parts of the river rowed rapidly to the scene of the disaster in order to rescue those who might have es- capped and were floating about. The police boat Patrol arrived upon the spot short time after the accident had occurred and her officers succeeded in rescuing one of the crew of the wrecked boat. The only person known to be killed is Almon Lewis, aged twenty-four, mate of the schooner Annie Palmer, which was in tow Of 'I thompson. IhrS .ne tug J. M IhomnS :. persons who were on tht

Our SeacOast Defenses-NOt Much Done i'm
 the Last Year.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-General Wright, chief of engineers, in his annual report says that during the year operations on the sea- coast and lake front defenses have been re- stricted to those necessary for the preserva- ton and repair of the existing works. No appropriations for new works nor for the modification of existing ones have been made during the past eight years and to-day, he says, the permanent Notifications of the country are in the incomplete condition in which they were left when operations were suspended in 1876, and are rapidly deteriorat- ing for lack of funds to complete them. He invites the attention of Congress to the sub ject in the hope that their careful considera- tion may secure the means by liberal appro- priations for that improvement of our defen- sive system which is so imperativelyidemand ed by the vast interests it is designed to pro- tect Concerning river and harbor improve ments he presents statements setting forth the condition of each improvement, the ex- tent of the work performed during the year, the amount of money expended and esti- mate of the probable cost of completion to- gether with estimate of the amount that can be proftably expended during the year ending June 3Oth, 1885.

Prepaid Letters-An Inquiry With
 View of Readjust1nR Letter Postage.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The postmaster general has been obtaining information from various postmasters relative to the percen- tage of prepaid letters weighing under half an ounce, over half an ounce and less than an ounce and over an ounce. Postmaster Conger of this city has communicated the re- suits of 8 count of the letters passing through the Washington office for three days. The total number of letters passing through the office during those days was 56,SO2, of which 50, 149 weighed under half an ounce, 4,O6s weighed over half an ounce and less than an ounce, and 1885 weighed over an ounce. Eighty-nine and eight-tenths per cent. weighed less than half an ounce. The replies from the Philadelphia and New York offices show that 943 per cent of the letters passing through those offices weighed less than half an ounce. The large amount of of fcial mail handled by the Washington office reduces the percentage of letters weighing less than half an ounce. It is stated that this information is being obtained with view of considering the feasibility of readjusting the rates of letter postage.

I now call myself cured. Nothing can be seen of the humor but the dim out lines of the sores. I shall take two more bottles, and then the cure will be complete.

their accounts in way which will obviate

A broker, who has returned from an ex-
tended trip west, said to-day: 81 am
bearish on the market. The crop situa-
ton is not especially favorable. The
spring is late. came from Chicago yes
terday morning, and there was snow on
the ground quite portion of the way to
Buffalo. I saw ice half an inch thick. 1t
may not do any harm, but the
lack of confidence which has existed
here for months has spread west, and
capitalists out there are not going to in
vest their money until there is something
favorable known about the crops. 1t is
too early to expect bull market"
Mr.. Sage is reported as talking very
bullish upon the market. He said in con.
versation day or two ago that while he
could not tell when bull market would
set in, he had seldom seen the condition
more favorable for decided advance in
the price of stocks. Bank people are re-
ported as taking bullish view of the mar
ket, mainly on account of the ease of
money and the probability of continued
ease for months. Mr.. D. o. Mills is re-
ported as saying that he considered it time
to buy stocks for rise of at least three or
four points.

New York, May 25.-There were orders
to buy Northwestern at the opening this
morning, which carried the price to I31
in short time. This stifened the general
market, and for an hour stocks were in
demand. A selling movement in Wabash
preferred followed later, and fall of l
per cent. took place, and the market be-
came very dull. Gould and Sage are
credited with being bulls on some proper
tles,sbut have done little to day to help
matters. There is perfect raid on Mani
toba. 1t closed at 124 last evening and
sold at 119 this afternoon. These weak
spots which occasionally make their ap-
pearce are quite demoralizing, and the
balance of the list suffered in consequence.
The earnings of the Wabash for the third
week in May decreased $1,7OO. The Mis-
sour Pacihcsystem, including the former,
increased $9S,0OO. Omaha for the same
period shows gain OF $4,000, and North
western $34,5o0. The quotations on
