that he actually gets. A limited portion vi the

These incidents are mentioned to SHOW the
utter worthlessness Of the reasoning thai

somebody. cause is not worth delendlng
which can set up 10 better logical defence
than that.
Neither is it true as Professor Sumner and
others like him continually argue, that working
men cannot he benefited unless the rate OF wages
is raised. Steady and sure employment ut dol

part of the works engaged therein, because
when the markets elsewhere are overstocked

Of course, there are also many instances IN
which protective duties do cause an advance
in the rate OF wages, or temporary advance III
the cost of certain products until their manu-
facture has been fully developed. For those
who choose to object to these duties and their
effects, the working people have an answer
ready. And the prctence that such encourage
mcnt never does really bring about lower
prices through a development of home indus
tries is reluted by multitude of wcl-knowu
facts. But the free trader who has no better
reasoning at command than to say that duty
which does not enhance prices therefore does
not protect, or that duty which does not raise
wages therefore does not benefit labor has yet
his alphabet to learn.

Mr. Forster had magnifed the Obligations I'M
posed upon the Government. He would NOT
however, assume the responsibility Of organiz-
ing military expedition which would involve
an unnecessary and Improbable war. In this
way Mr.. Gladstone probably expressed Eng
lands sober second thought. There is always a
keen sensitiveress evinced whenever the ma
tlonal honor seems to be compromised but an
aggressive campaign or meddlesome policy
must form the basis of reasonable calculation,
or public Judgment will condemn it. There
have been eight costly campaigns IN South
Africa within seventy years, all growing out OF
frontier disputes, and one of them, inthe Pre-
mler;s own words, the most monstrous war IN
English history" 1t is to be hoped that the
English capacity for laundering in that direc-
ton has by this time been exhausted.

1t is quite out OF place for The World or any
other journal TO attempt To rival Professor
Sumner in bad logic His superiority III that
direction ought to place him beyond rivalry.
Bat even Mr. Sumner has not often made Il
worse mess OF il than Thc IV0rH has made in
reasoning that protective duties, if they do not
enhance the prices Of domestic products, are
worthless to the producer, ana i'll effect not
protective at all. If the American price is not
"incrcased by the duty" it says, "and the
"forrign article is therefore excluded, the So
scaled protective tax will have been inCilec-
Z" tive to protect the American manufacturer
Il oncht 20 be sufficiently obvious to thc duilcst
understanding. ON the contrary, that the cX-
cluson of foreign competition is precisely the
pr0tccton that the American manufacturer
most desires. Very often, absolutely the only
protection that he wishes i, that foreign i'm
vortatiuns should be restricted, without being
entirely prevented, and without any enhance
meut whatever in the price Of the domestic
product.
TO make this very clear let us suppose that
the importation of a certain article is abso-
mtclv prohibited. The manufacturers in this
country have tie whole market to themselves.
Does it follow that the plice will rise Not
nv any means; each manufacturer, IN striving
to get as large share of the home market as
he can, may continue to sell ut previous prices
because they afford him LIVING profit, and, If
he can make large sales, handsome profit.
Does the prohibition do him no good, then
Clearly it does, if it enables him to sell more
products than before at the same price if a
man can make million yards of cloth at a

Mason, KY, happily does not seem to rest
upon anybody. There was 10 careless or
sleepy watchman, switchman or telegraph OPP
orator Who failed to do his duty at the cost OF
many lives; nor was there any lack OF en-
ployes. The slipping of the rails, undermined
by rain, threw the cars down high embank-
ment. Considering the speed at which the

we'll as thankfulness, that SO few persons were

has been filed in the sherill's office by Dan
iel Wells, Jr., in the suit to compel Peter
McGeoch to account for the money in.
vOlved in the settlement OF the celebrated
McGeoch lard-failure few months since.
No papers have been filed by Wells, but
McGeoch's friends understand the nature
OF the charges to be made, which, it Is
said, will be to the effect that Wells has
paid a greater sum than his share toward
the settlement; and they make reply that
McGeoch will Immediately bring SUIT

greater sum was paid by McGeoch, and
asking that the settlement already made be

THE TROUBLE CAPTAIN HAlNES FELL INTO AP-
TER BEING WRECKED.
A Panama TELEGRAM says: The American
bark Azor. Captain Haines, OF and from
Boston for AspinwaIl, with cargo Of
dressed lumber, was wrecked few week $
ago on the island OF New Providence. The
captain, who is part owner OF the vessel,
made an agreement with some men TO save
what could be got out OF her, and to
pick up ms much lumber as possible.
Subsequently, Dir. Bailey, an American,
and two other merchants, purchased the
salvaged lumber, which was regularly
sold at public auction. After the sale had
been Effected, and the money paid, the
Corregidor interiered, and, finding Captain
Haines refused to divide with him the
money receivcd-as he had succeeded in
doing i'm the case OF another American
vessel wrecked there about year ago
declared the sale TO be cancelled"
and determined TO refer the matter
TO the court OF that department
or the authorities at Bogota. The
Captain and the principal purchaser, find
ing themselves deprived OF their property,
determined to visit Colon TO represent the
matter TO the United States Consul. Then

leaving New Providence and put them I'M
der bond OF 5000 each and requested the
Captain to give security for $1,000 that he
would not go to Jamaica by vessel which
WAS about TO leave.
Captain Haines determined on flight.
lie took a small boat and went to Corn
Island, where he hoped to find some vessel
which would convey him to Jamaica,
where he could take ship for Boston.
Prior to this all vessels had been notified
not 20 receive the Captain under penalty
Of fine or Imprisonment. The matter has
been brought to the knowledge Of Presi-
dent Cervera, at Panama, and the agent OF
the general government on the Isthmus.
Mr.. Rice, the United States Consul
at Aspinwall, has moved actively
in the matter. and forwarded full
particulars TO the Department OF
State at Washington. The question is
most serious one. and promises TO occasion
much correspondence. TO add to the troli-
bles, Mr.. GOodsell, the United States Con-
sular agent at san Andres, died while
these proceedings were in progress, thus
leaving Captain Haines entirely without
protection. Mr.. Rice has since appointed
an agent, who will obtain further evidence
for transmission to the United States.

Terrible Experience OF N Fireman on
Jersey Train.

A Philadelphia telegram OF Friday says ::
A singular accident occurred on the West
jersey railroad above Woodbury. last eve
ming. Richard McLane, the fireman on the
800 train from Camden for Cape May,
while passing Westyille Station, was
struck by spark from the en-
CINE furnace, which lodged on his
oily blouse. He attempted TO eXtin-
gllsh the flame, which was shooting into
his face, and staggered out Of the caboose.
The engine was running at the rate Of
about thirty five miles an hour, and the
engineer was looking out ahead. The en-
gineer glanced around and noticed that
McLane was missing. He applied the air.
brakes, and the train was brought 10 a
stand.stll.
At this time one mile back between the
double-tracks lay McI.ane in blaze. He
had been knocked senseless, and the fire
was eating into his body. He arose with
difficulty, and in his agony clntched ut his
burning garments. Tumbling over the
iron rails, he rolled down a steep en-
bankment into clump OF briers.
Meantime the engine was reversed
and stopped near where the fireman
had fallen. Several OF the passengers
tore the clothes FROM him and thus eXtin.
guished the fire. The man was placed in a
ear and carried to Woodbury., where his
injuries were attended TO. His left arm In
places was burned to crisp, and deep
gashes or his head and face caused the
flesh to hang IN shreds. His right arm was
broken in two places, and charred spots
and bruises covered his whole body.

A Young Doctors Unfortunate spree.

A Washington telegram says: An effort
is being made here TO get a Pittsburgh
young man out of a very bad scrape. DIR.
Dundenburg, OF Pittsburgh, has son,
also a doctor, but somewhat given to dissi-
patton. A short time ago it appears that
young Dundenburg got on spree, and be-
fore he had fully recovered from its ef-
fects enlisted in the army. The family
is said to be of high standing, aud
began immediate steps to get the
young man out. These might have been
successful had not young DR.. Dundenburg
suddenly deserted. Representative Bayne
and General Pearson, Of Pittsburgh, came
over TO intercede for the young man at the
War Department, having had their sympa-
thy enlisted in his behalf. but the desertion
bars action. General Pearson says he be-
lieyes he can lay his hands on young Dun
denburg at any time II he could be gotten
out Of the army, and General Sheridan
thinks the young man might be gotten out
il he would return to his regiment and
face the music. So the matter now stands.
