High Prices.

1t is estimated that the poor, buying in
small quantities, incur unnecessary ex-
pense in the following ratio: For an
ounce of washing soda the poor trading
at small shops pay one cent; a grocer will
deliver it for three cents pound. For
-four by the pound they pay sum equal
to $3.50 barrel for a s. article. They
buy butter at the rate of s. tub, which
would cost half that amount. A half
pound of sugar costs them five cents,
while a pound would be but two cents
more. For twenty-five cent tea they
pay fifty cents; for a fifteen cent tea
they pay forty cents, and in this ratio
they pay for everything.
A pamphlet has lately been published
in London, advocating the timing OF
people who have more than three chill
dren. There is no question but that the
theories advanced by Mrs. Besant have
gradually taken very strong hold on
the people of England.

The Queen OF yVurtemberg.

Paris Letter to London Truth.
The Queen of Wurtemberg has been
quietly lying by at the Hotel Bristol for
some days past. She has wealth, but no
longer health, and does not appear to have
had much happiness to look back-to. Her
residences at Stuttgart are certainly not
'sDog-holes, F" and there are many intellec-
tral people there. But if they have mental
bullion. they have little small change, so
that after all a fairly clever woman, brought
up at the court of St. Petersburg, might
pine almost to death of ennui among them.
Her Wurtemberg majesty was the most ro-
mantle as well as the most beautiful of the
Car Nicholas's daughters, and the only one
of them whom he prevented from making a
love-match. The eldest, and first to die,
married brother of the present Queen of
Denmark. l dare say the once peerless
Queen of Wurtemberg regrets that she did
not stake her head'' and max e love-match.
She has reigned and governed in Wurtem-
berg. But reigning and governing in a
secondary German kingdom dwarfS intellect
and sympathies. There is not much to do
beyond enforcing the observation ofruleS Of
court etiquette, helping to review a few
regiments of soldiers, looking over the list
Of strangers who demand presentation at
court, writing long letters to illustrions rela-
tives and frowning down subversive agita
tors. Queen Olga has inherited from both
her father and her mother passion for ma
terial order which is at once cause of ffic-
ton and source of occupation. There is
place for everything in her palace and
country residences. But even with dOcile
German servants it is impossible to keep ev-
erything in its place. The king, in dispair
at ever attaining his wife's ideal, keeps in a
'sden' of his own, where he studies new
models of artillery, smokes, reads newspa-
pers, plays cards and receives friends Of his
own sex who share his amusements.

RAILWAY DEVELOPMENT.

1t is generally conceded that the railway
system of the Northwest is IN but the in
cipient stages of its development. Fate has
already decreed that the Burlington, Wabash
and the Illinois Central will eventually
enter this territory, as must all of the great
Western triink lines, if they would have
the rich heritage that awaits them. The
trunk lines which have already entered
upon this field are contemplating extensions
in various directions into the territory trib-
utary to st. Paul and Minneapolis. Some
of these have for their central idea direct
connection with the great lakes. And the
menace to the dual cities Is whether they
will continue to recognize them as integral
points for the famification Of their compli-
Gated systems. The Northwestern, for in
stance, through its Omaha feeder, has al
ready found connection with the great lakes
through it's line to Washburn, near the
head of navigation on Lake Superior. The
Milwaukee, through its running arrangement
in connection with other lines over the
tracks of the ST. Paul & Duluth, already has
access to Lake Superior in addition to its
connection with the chain Of lakes via
Grand Haven, Milwaukee and Chicago.
The Manitoba has an arrangement
whereby they can reach the same goal at
Duluth. The Northern Pacific has direct
connection with the great lakes via Duluth,
Superior and Ashland. These connections
foreshadow something of the future of Du-
luth and other cities and towns at the head
of Lake Superior. 1t is believed that the
Manitoba system will not be, complete until
it has connection of its own with Duluth.

Fire on a Steamer.

MILWAUKEE, June 2S.-Just as the
Union Line steamboat company's steamer.
B. w. Blanchard, was taking on the
last few sacks of large deck load
of flour this afternoon, and less than
an hour before her time for departing. fire
was discovered in her boiler room. Efforts
to extinguish the flames by such means as
the boat commanded proving futile, the
city fire department was summoned. Owing
to the location of the fire, which spread
rapidly through the forward part of the hold
and into the cargo, it required over an
hours work by half dozen steamers to
bring the flames under control, which was
only done by flooding the hold. The
loss will probably exceed $4,000, one
fourth of which is on the boat, and the re-
mainder on the cargo. On the former there
is no insurance, but the latter is thought to
be well covered. The cargo of corn in the
hold was taken on at Chicago.

Red-Skin Troubles.

Special TO the GlODe.
WASHINGTON, June 28.-Talking about
Indian troubles to-day an army officer said;
''There is one thing that renders it particu-
larly hard to treat with discontinued In
dams. A great many of them understand
English well but wont acknowledge it.
When they come in to pow-wow they insist
upon an interpreter, but they pay great
deal more attention to side re-
marks than they do to what
is being said for their benefit. This is their
way of telling whether the whites talk
straight or not. Of course the old chief
always counsels peace, but occasionally
the old chief gets drunk. Then he tells of
what good times he had on the warpath,
and upbraids the young bucks and calls
them squaws. That sets them afire and an
outbreak is often the result. The
squaw is very instrumental in keeping
peace, and is a great assistant in the
reservation system. She does all she can
to keep her buck on the reservation, and
the Indians wont go out on long raids
without their squaws. They are wanted to
hunt food and take care of the ponies. On
the reservation the squaws are comfortable
and do everything in their power to keep
from going out On the war path on account
of the hardships and the danger of being
killed, for they are shot by the Indian
scouts if found, just the same as if they
were bucks.

TERRIFIC STORM.
Baltimore Badly Damaged by the
Heavy Rainfall.

BALTIMORE, June 2S.-The heaviest
rain storm for fourteen years visited this
city this morning. The rainfall was
4.47-1OO inches. The destruction was very
considerable. Upward of 200 easements
and cellars were flooded ON the line of Jones'
Falls, and in the depressed portion of the
city the streets were flooded, the
sewers not having sufficient ca
pacity to carry the water off.
The damage was particularly heavy among
the tenement houses. Along the line of
Jones' falls the water rose to the second
stories, and there was considerable anxiety
felt for the people living in the houses, but
fortunately no lives were lost. One entire
family narrowly escaped drowning, and a
number of horses had to be turned loose to
save them. There was also heavy dam
age in the southern and western sections of
the city. At the Calverton drove
yards many hogs were drowned. To-
day the flooded districts present
a strange appearance. In some places mud
is piled up toy a height of six feet, and fur
niture and merchandise of every description
is strewn around promiscuously. One to-
baccO manufacturer lost S. 600 worth of
stock, and several small clothing dealers. on
Harrison street, had all their goods ruined.
The steeple of Westminster church was
struck by lightning and considerably dam
aged. 1t is not thought $4,000 will re-
pair the damage. The storm was accom-
panied by the heaviest thunder and light
ming known for years.

of the Indians This general phrase may
have indicated little knowledge of real
grievances suffered by the red men whom
he sought as allies. Still, there have been
complaints that some government agents
were wrOnging the red men, and it is be-
lieved that the efforts to render the Indians
self-supporting have in some cases led to
the premature withdrawal of government
aid There have also been instances of
starvation and distress among them. But
the underlying cause of taking the warpath
at this time is believed to have been race
hostility against the intrusion of whites and
the progress of civilization. Canada,
nevertheless, If she is entering upon
period of severe trial with her aborig-
final population, has our sad experience to
guide her. She will see the necessity OF
thoroughly Strengthening her permanent
orce of armed frontier police. She should
subject her Indian system to thorough scru-
tiny, since it has been charged that there
are agents who have grown rich through
frauds, and that some bands have been
robbed of half the supplies of money and
provisions allowed them by the government.
She should legislate seasonably and liber-
ally to remove the Indians out of the few
inevitable paths of white civilization, put
ting them not on sterile lands, as has some
times been done, but on lands healthy and
suitable for farming

Great Damage Done by a Terrific
Rain Storm Yesterday at

The Trouble Among Lawless Men

Church Trouble Leads to Riot.

TOLEDO, o., June 2S.-For long time
there has been trouble in the Polish Gath
olic church here, between the priest and his
followers and a faction who are opposed to
him. Over year ago, in row growing
out OF the trouble, a man was killed, and
the failure to convict the parties guilty of
the offense stimulated the opposition, which
has been increasing in ferocity. A few
days ago an attempt was made
to blow up the church building with
dynamite. This afternoon the trouble cul-
minated in general riot, in which firearms
and all manner of weapons were freely
used. Two men were killed and several
injured, while quite number of houses
were partially or totally destroyed. The
police have made large number of arrests,
and an extra force is stationed on the
grounds to prevent another outbreak.
The priest Of the parish in which the riot
occurred, Rev. Vincent Sewandowki, has
for the past three years in some way made
himself obnoxious to a portion of his
flock, but has heretofore refused to
resign, asserting that the bishop would
not fill his place should he leave. To-day,
however, he gave notice from the pulpit
that he would leave them tomorrow This
seemed to infuriate his friends, and shortly
after the close of services an angry
crowd collected and went to the
saloon of Peter SzelaszkiewieZ, who was
strongly suspected of being implicated in
an attempt to blow up the priests house a
week ago, where fight was soon started.
Zelaszkelwiez was driven from the house
and

at him, but he escaped with wound in the
hand. The mob then attacked the house
of Albert DolkOwsky, close by, and enter
ing the house, dragged him and his
wife out and shot him several
times and beat him terribly over
the head with clubs, killing him.
His wife was also badly dubbed and is
likely to die. The mob completely demOl
ished the house. During the riot
many shots were fired, one strik-
ing bystander named Dob
iowczsk and instantly killing him. Several
persons engaged in the fight were more or
less injured. The scene of the riot is over
two miles from the police station, but a
force of policemen were on the ground as
soon as possible and arrested twelve or
fifteen of the leading rioters.
not less than 100 men, women and children
were engaged in the fight. A force of po-
licemen was detailed to keep the peace for
the night, but the excitement is intense,
and more trouble is eXpected

CANADA's INDIAN TROUBLE.

ments often attending the pursuit of Indian
murderers. These experiences, however,
have been grievously familiar on this side
of the line. Various causes have been Of
fered in explanation OF the differences
which have existed between the Dominion
and our own government in this respect. In
discussion of the MIDDLETON campaign,
the New York Times says that, despite flat
tering statistics and the pleasant tokens of
peace which have always been thoroughly
ereditable to the Dominion, it has been the
persistent belief of many Of our army Off
GERS that one great difference between exper-
fence with Indians on that side of the border
and experience on this side has been due to
the fact that there the Indians
were practically not disturbed at all by the
advance of civilization. Their reservations
have been extensive, and whites have not
disputed their occupation. Within few
years emigrants have pushed into Sas-
katchewan and otherparts Of the Northwest;
the railroad has just found its way there,
and now Canada has experienced the atroc-
tiles and anxieties of all Indian war of her
OWL" Following up this theory the Times
says that ''tlis conflict has mainly arisen out
of the advance Of civilization seems probable
from the inadequacy of the excuses made
for its inhuman slaughters. R1EL, it is
true, excited the Indians to revolt, and in
that fact there is hope for the future, since
OH the downfall of the half-breeds may
come the surrender of the Indians. The
capitulation of PoUNDMAkER points to
this conclusion. On the other hand, the
defiant attitude of BIC BEAR has iildi-

THE FIGHT FOR PURE FOOD.

FOODs
1t is matter of surprise to find the indie
pendent, and usually level-headed, New
York Times defending the oleomargarine
manufacturers against the war of exter-
mination. waged by the buttermakers of
New York state. The argument used by
the Times in defense of the manufacturers
of oleaginous products is that other manu-
facturers are allowed to sell spurious wares
without legal interference OF being re-
quired to label their goods. The effect of
such argument is that because one evil
exists thousand greater ones should be
allowed to spring up. The fact is that the
laws of every state should prevent the sale
or manufacture of all adulterated articles.
The crusade inaugurated by the New York
buttermakers against oIeomargarlne is the
beginning of beneficial system of legisla-
ton which will ultimately exterminate the
sale Of every species of adulterated goods.
The Times says that nobody would buy
milk if it was labeled ''milk and Water or
''swill milk" That is all the more reason
why the vendors of such articles should be
compelled to label their goods. When it is
ONCE tltdb ~ ltUcl III oil GlCl6 Is
its condemnation, that will be an end to
the manufacture of the article. When sugar
barrels bear the label of ''Sand and sugar"
and coffee bags are marked ''scOrched
beans" and claret bottles bear the label,
'1ogwood Juice" and what is called Italian
olive oil shall bear the superscription,
'scotton-seed oil" the time will come when
long-imposed-upon public will have its
revenge in seeing these spurious goods dis
appear from the markets. The individual
who manufactures oleomargarine and palms
it off as butter is a counterfeiter and a rob-
Der, and should be dealt with as such. Any
man has a right to manufacture oleomargar-
inc and sell it as oleOmargarine. But
when he sells it as butter he robs
be dealt with as a thief. In the same way
the sugar manufacturer who sells sand for
sugar stands on the same footing. The
laws of each state should provide for an in
spector whose duty it should be to examine,
whenever called upon, any article that is
offered for sale in the markets, and if, upon
proper examination, it be found to be other
than what it is advertised or represented to
be. then the vender or manufacturer of such
article should be subjected to the severest
penalties. The fight between the butter
makers and the oleomargarine dealers in
New York will be watched with interest
throughout the entire country, because it is
regarded as the beginning of a contest
which is to result in the determination of
adulterated food. That the buttermakers
will eventually win, in the face of courts
and states attorneys who are subsidized in
the interest of the manufacturers of adult
Grated articles, is moral certainty, because
an irresistible public sentiment is at their
back.
