Receipts at the bridge has gone away down
this week, only 1910 being collected The
ice is in good condition for crossing, and
teams prefer that that way Of getting into the
city than having to pay toll. Last year the
travel across the bridge was good at this date
although the ice formed sooner than this
this year, but no snow being on it the farm
ers, smooth shod horses did not dare to cross
on the Ice From this time till spring the
bridge will not make much of a showing in
the way OF collecting cash.
Yesterday Donovan and Riley began their
six months board at the state prison for lar
ceny. This viii put them over the winter,
aud they will come out fresh in the spring.
The great majority Of prisoners arriving are
for short terms, few getting over two years,
and this shows the necessity Of having some
other place to put them, as having to come
out couvicts for such light offenses casts a
Stigma upon their Afterlite that cannot well
De wiped out. Coming out prisoner and q
convict are two far different things. We
trust the legislature will make provision for
such class, especially as other places in
the state are clamoring for another state
prison, and shortly one will be required to De
built. A central prison for short time SEN
fences would greatly relieve the pressure
here; and, if such should be built, have 1t
where the prisoners could be made to work,
as convict labor should not compete with free
labor.

The RappahanOck Disaster.

BALTIMORE, Dec. 13.-The steamer West
moreland from Rappahanock arrived to-day.
Those on board report the destruction of life
by Tuesdays storm much greater than here
tOfore reported. OF Canoe House landing, a
considerable distance above Urbana, several
boats were swamped and all on board per-
ished. At other points lives were lost. The
Baltimore Egerlilg Ne'os in IT'S account of
the disaster says: "The officers of the
steamer Westmoreland report so far as heard
of the party of colorsd men whose boats were
capsiZed in the RappahanOck near Urbana,
twenty-eight are known TO have been
drowned. In addition to those already re-
ported at least six were drowned at Canoe
House landing on the same river. At Mill
Creek, another landing on the Rappahanoek,
young white man was drowned. In speak
ing of the fast that so few who were out in
boats escaped being drowned an officer of the
Westmorelaud remarked they could easily
have reached the shore and avoided the acct
dent which befell them, but the squall broke
in all its fury without moments notice and
the boats were swamped before they were
fully aware Of what had taken place. The
negroes al along the river, especially in the
neighborhood Of Urbana, were greatly fright
eued.n

Escaped from the WorkhouSe,

1t leaked out yesterday that three prison.
ers, all six months men, escaped from the
workhouse during Thursday night. The es-
cape of the men, for some reason, was not
reported to the police, and the
result was that the desperadoes
at once proceeded to commit a couple of
small robberies. The names of the prisoners
are John Broderick, George johnson and T.
Kimberly. They are all tough men and
their escape should have been reported at
once, Chief Clark and the detectives being
very indignant over the affair.
None of the fugitives have yet been cap
tured, but as they are well known no doubt
they will be brought into camp. They are a
party of the Rice street gang who were
yanked from a cave few days ago

ST. PAUL TRADE.
Reports of the Chamber of Commerce
Regarding Business the
Past Week.

During the past week trade has been quiet
in nearly all lines, even in Christmas goods.
The money market has been active and
tighter, probably on account Of general set
ting up, which is usual towards the end Of
the year. Discounts and exchange on New
York remain unchanged.
fair amount of sales have been compile
ted in real estate, for this season, and quite a
number Of inquiries have been made for
lots between the cities.
large trade has been transacted by the
wholesale grocers, whose collections continue
pto be very good.
The dry goods business has been some
what quiet, the mildness Of the weather af-
fecting the traffic in heavy goods considera-
bly,.
The drug trade continues TO be. well sus-
tanned, and collections better, although not
by any means good. A general tendency TO
decline in prices. which must, however, soon
give way TO some advances. Already window
glass manufacturers are looking for some ad-
vances. White lead dealers are trying to re-
store old prices.
Only moderate business has been done
by our wholesale clothing houses, but those
handling furs report trade exceedingly act
i've.
An improvement is felt in the wholesale
boot and shoe trade, which is better than il
was last year at this time, and collections are
very good. A fair trade has been done in
leather, and collections in that line are i'm
proving.
The hardware business remains very good,
large orders continually coming in.
The wholesale wine and liquor merchants
report fair amount Of business doing, but
the trade is dull compared with last year, at
this season.
The commission merchants have been
quiet all the week. Large supplies of or
anges are coming in, but sales are rather
dull.
The retail stores report business quiet,
most of them complaining of dulIness for
this season Of the year.

Capt. John Bresette was made the recipient
yesterday of a handsome gift from the MEM
bers of the police force, who presented him
with stylish, beautiful and costly cutter

could scarcely suppress his emotion. He
finally acknowledged the receipt of the hand
some testimonial in a neat speech. The
cutter is of the Portland make, having been
manufactured by Hallowell d Co., of this

need of just such cutter, and in the presen-
tation the boys did themselves proud.
