THE BRIDGE EXPLOSION.

LONDON, Dec. 15-3 P. Mo clue
to the perpetrators of the bridge out
rage has been found.
The Times says: "The moment has
arrived TO. ask whether the American
law might not be altered so that immu-
nifty could no longer be accorded con-
spirators who make no secret of their
murderous Intentions" "Politics," the
Times continues, "are SO totally uncon-
nected with the repeated endeavors of
these miscreants to destroy public prop
erty and kill and main people who have
done no harm shat their efforts are simply
murders or attempts at murder for the
purposes of pecuniary speculation.
The knowledge that dastardIy or
moters of these outrages are loathed
and execrated by vast majority of
Americans encourages hope that if
the outrage at London Bridge on Sat
urday night is traced to the trans-At-
lantic agency, America will not be con
tent with mere expression of horror,
but will be reused to take such action
as might be expected from civilized
community in dealing with abject
scoundrels." -.
PARIS, Dec. 15.-At meeting of An
archists last night speeches were made
and resolutions adopted applauding the
explosions at London Bridge. A sheet
of paper upon which was printed the
name "Waldeck Rousseau, minister of
he interior" was spat upon by all pres
Mt as they left the meeting.

The Outlook i'm Mexico.
ICor. N. Y. Herald


As for the capabilities of the Mexi-
can in commerce and manufacturing, SO
small is the development in these di-
rections that it is difficult as yet to tell
what the future will be. At present
nearly all the importing trade in this
country is in the hands of the French.
Germans and Spaniards, as well as a
large share of the retail trade, especial
" in dry goods, hardware, drugs, ma
chinery, carriages and wagons, tools.
etc. The Mexican storekeepers con-
fine themselves mostly to articles of
food, groceries, meats, liquor and the
like. They are not very enterprising
as a race, and do not venture into new
enterprises as do the Americans. The
native Mexican shops are, for the most
part, little holes in the wall, and their
stock of merchandise of the most mea-
gre character. It is my impression,
though I give it only as personal i'm
preston, that the large retail trade and
almost the entire wholesale business of
this country will for many years to
come remain in the hands of foreigners,
the only change being constant in
cre ase hof Americans and English
among large wholesale trading houses,
crowding out or diminishing the bust
ness done by the French, Germans, and
Spaniards, s..-,.-s

RIVERS AND HARBQRS.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-The House
committee on. rivers and harbors has
nearly completed its labors and has
agreed to appropriations amounting to
about one-quarter of the estimate of
the chief OF engineers for the various
incompleted and new Improvements
The aggregate of about $4,000, 900 will
be recommended for these improve
ments. Il is likely that the Senate will
Top off couple of millions from the
estimate. Representative Rankin stated
in committee that Wisconsin wanted
her share of the appropriations for inn
provements, and, as 1t was agreed that
about one-quarter of the engineers es-
innate IN each case would be recon-
mended, he believed that he was salts
fed and thereupon drew up the list of
harbors and the amounts of money to
be appropriated and this was adopted
by the committee. It is smaller than
expected.

THE PACIFIC ROADS.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-The Pacific
railroads now owe the government over
800, 100000, counting all the credits
due the corporation, and if settlement
could be forced to-day, the government
would be gamer. Nothing but heroic
treatment, as physicians say, will ever
extricate Uncle Sam from the trouble.
Several bills are before Congress to adj
just the matter. The greater part of
the thirty years subsidy bonds of the
Central and the Union Pacific roads
will mature in fourteen years and of
course the government will be COM
PEELED to pay them. The Thompson
bill, which made some progress at the
last session, which provides for swelling
the sinking fund, does not meet the ext
gencies of the case and either the gov
eminent or the bondholders will event
ually be compelled to take possession of
the Union Pacific. Jay Gould has three
men here, and will soon show his hand.

hold was made proud and happy by tn
introduction of cabinet organ Tn
mother could play little: and as there
was popular collection of music" in
Guided in the purchase she lost no
time in getting every note and stop in
to practice. The organ groaned and
wheezed and complained with the most
astonishing of music, night and day,
day and night, for a week. Then one
morning there was a knock at the door
and little girl from the next house
shrilly said: 1
Please, marin, mother wants to know
if you won't lend her your music
book?"
This was surprising request, mas
much as the woman next door was
known to be organizes After gasping
once or twice the amateur organist
asked:
"What does she want of it?"
The child hadn't been loaded for
this question, so she straightforwardly
replied:
II don't know. m sure, only I heard
mother tell father that if she had hold
OF the book for day or two mebbe
somebody could get rest" 80
The woman softly shut the door in
the little girls face and went and care
fully locked the cabinet organ with 6

Describing a 'sNOrther -
From the Marshall (Tex.) Messenger.

IFrom the Marshall (Tex.) Messenger
"Ill tell you what it is stranger, a
norther puts in the quickest work of
anything you ever saw. You see that
lake down there pointing to beauti-
full lake mile Distant; last spring in
the latter part of March, was fishing
in the afternoon; the sun was shining
and it was warm almost as the middle
of summer. The fish were jumping up
all over the lake, and they we're biting
splendidly. A shade came suddenly
over the lake, and thought [ smeled
strange smell that often precedes a
norther. I Immediately turned away
from the lake and looked towards the
northwest, and I saw small dark cloud
passing like lightning and I knew that
+ must hurry home. After looking a
short time at the cloud turned and
looked at the lake, when to my aston
ishment, the lake was frozen over and
many fish were lying on top of the
ice. The fish had jumped up, and the
lake had frozen over so quick they could
not get back. Stranger, maybe you
think that is stretching a little, but I'll
tell you that a norther can beat anything
but lightning, and it can hurry that up
nightly"

CHICAGO, Dec. ia verdict for
$4,000 has just been awarded by a cir
cult court jury to the heirs of Franz
Urban, who was killed in 1888 while
driving over the track OF the North Chi
cago Railway. The facts were that the
wheel of his wagon ran into a hole
alongside of the track, upsetting the We
hicle, Urban being thrown out and
killed. The suit is based upon the fail
ure of the railway company to keep the

NO BANKRUPT LAW THIS YEAR.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-Friends of
the bankrupt bill in the house have
about abandoned all hope of having the
measure passed by this Congress.
There is good deal of opposition to it
in the Western, Central and Southern
states, and the docket is so crowded
that the objection, it is believed, could
not be overcome in the face of the work
before the House. The Chicago Board
of Trade and the commercial men of
New England seem to have been the
main stays of the bill, and are urging
it's passage vet.
