An instance of how revenue tariff
would iniure American industry comes to
hand in the Trenton Gazette. The mis-
construction OF the tariff law of 1888 by the
treasury department had the effect of
closing large and prosperous wire rod
mill at Trenton. The well-paid workmen,
earning from SIS to $50 a week, were
thrown out of employment. The effect
upon the other wire rod mills of the coun-
try was the same, and it is estimated that
5000 men all have been thrown out OF
employment on account of this one reduc-
ton below the danger line. The mills of
Germany and England, employing labor
at halt the American rates, are benefited.
The revenue has been increased instead

 The Yale Glee club officers have telegraph ed to Cincinnati cancelling all engagements They were at the Galt House, Louisville, up to yesterday morning and those uninjured excepting two or three expected to leave for New Haven yesterday afternoon. Otis Strong had one leg amputated yesterday. The other will be saved. The physicians say he will recover. William Crehore has had his broken leg set and will be able to go home to Cleveland in week. O. W. Cutler has a fractured ankle. He is much praised for bravery in helping the others. The wounded are still in Charlestown, where they are at tended by Dr. David Candell, the most dis tinguished surgeon in the Southwest, who is an alumnus of Yale, and who volunteered his services. Knowlon and Wilder will look after the legal aspects of the case and the talk is that there will be suits for heavy dam ages as the accident is claimed to be the result of gross carelessness. At the time of the accident the thermometer was fifteen below zero. One of the largest audi ences of the season had gathered Saturday night for the clubs concert, and reception had been arranged for them at the residence of Hon. Isaac Caldwell. MT.

Oyster Interests.

The application of Charles W. Raymond of Darien, for large tract of oyster ground in the Sound of Darien was considered by the shell fish commissioners yesterday. The grounds are partly in the State of New York and partly in this State. w.. H. Lockwood and Isaac M. Travis, of New York, claim to own the land. Decision in the case was re served.
 H. 0. Rowe is engaged in dredging up all the oysters he can find on his beds that were disturbed by recent gale. The oysters are buried in the sand, The bed was in too shoal water.
 The oyster grounds controlled by the Con- necticut Fishery commission now aggregate three. hundred thousand acres. Fifty-four thousand acres were taxed last year at an av- craze below $7 per acre, yielding revenue of $9, 468. The amount of this revenue will increase year by year as the old land ina proves in value and the new land is put under cultivation.
