4 CONSTANT RATIO.
The RepublicanGain Continues Very
Nearly as They Began


CHICAGO, Oct. 13.-The Times Co
lumbus, o., special says: The return!
come more slowly than usual, but there
is unusual regularity in the ratio of the
Republican gains. With over 100 of the
precincts in the Republican gains have
run from 10 to 40 per precinct, and have
averaged 17.At this rate the Republicans
will overcome Hoadly's plurality of 12,.
900 in 1888 and give Foraker 10000 pIu-
rality.
If the Prohibition vote is kept up at its
present rate it will reach 40, 200. The
largest Prohibition gains are in the Dem
ocratic precincts. 1t is, however to be
considered that the Republicans, with
better organization, got out their vote in
cities to-day, while in the country where
the feeling seemed most in their favor
the vote was not so fully drawn out
Cold rains fell all day, with no more
than half hours cessation at any time
This does not seem to have helped the
Democrats as heretofore. The Germans
in all precincts went strongly Republi-
Csiii, anu lilt IOIoIGu Iutll W al
BILE extent pulled with the Democrats.
The colored and mining votes make
Hoadly run better. Those figuring at the
Republican headquarters claim 10000
for the head of their ticket. and no less
than Is, 900 for the rest of it. Reports
from close counties and di stricts are in
favor of the Republican legislative tick
ct to the extent that they may have full
ly 40 majority in the House and 10 in
the Senate, but this is estimated on par
tial returns, especially as to state sena-
tors OF the 81 senators the Republicans
claim 21.
Governor Hoadly arrived from Gin
cinnati at 1890 and proceeded directly
to the Democratic headquarters, where
Chairman Powell and other members of
the committee and a few friends were
the returns. The Governor
was asked if he did not think he was |
beaten, and he replied No; this is just |
a nice close fight and will not go {, 1000 |
either way" The Democratic committee |
is inclined to concede everything, and |
say their only hope of carrying the legis- |
ature is solid delegation from Hamil-

The DeLand Apriculturist SAYS

The DeLand Agriculturist says:
"We have seen it stated that the
. present crop of oranges will exceed
that of last year. While this may
be the case in some localities, and in
new groves, we learn from many
possessing old groves that their
crops this year will be much below
the average. We know this to be
the case in this county, and have
been informed by citizens of other
counties that it is the same with
them. We see no good in exagger
ating the yield, for the prospect of
very large crop tends to lower
prices. The crops of almost every
variety of fruit this year have been
unusually heavy and prices have been
low in consequence. Grapes have
sold in California at $40 to $40 per
ton. Apples in the north are cheap.
Pears are almost given away. All
this will tend to lower the orange
trade"

THE SOUTHERN FORESTRY con-
GRESS

0nE4SS.
The New Orleans Times Demo
crat has the following to say on this
important subject:
''The American Forestry Con-
gress, which met in New England a
month ago, has attracted universal
attention to the importance of pass
ing laws regarding forestry in this
country, unless we desire to com
pletely denude and destroy our for
ests, producing a lumber famine;
and, at the same time, impoverish-
ing our soil, affecting its fertility
and injuring the climate of the coun-
try, On these points the warming
issued by the congress was especial
ly striking and deserving of atten-
ton. 1t showed that this country
was not as heavily wooded as was
thought. The greater portion of
the forests of the northern states
have been destroyed during the past
half century, and the wooded area
! is now confined mainly to the south,
to the far northwest and Pacific
slope.
"The timber supply of the south
will suffice for the needs of the
country if it is properly husbanded;
but if the same reckless extrava-
gance Is pursued that has left Ohio
to-day almost treeless, and is sweep
ing away the woods of Michigan
and Wisconsin equally as fast, the
whole country will suffer from it.
What the congress aimed to secure
was some attention to this subject,
to find what is the best mode of pre-
venting further reckless waste, and |
what steps should be taken to re-
plenish the forests now, alas rapid
ly disappearing.
Strange to say the south, al
though vitality interested in this
matter as the largest possessor of
wooded lands in the union, had but
one representative present and took
little part in the proceedings. Thi.
neglect, however, will be made good
by the Southern Forestry Congress,
to meet at Lake De Funiak, Fla,
Dec. 10. A southern congress of
this kind was deemed necessary.
not on account of any sectional or
political differences, but because the
forestry question III the south is,
through climatic or other causes, en-
tirely different from the problem in
the west. The south is 4 wooded
country, and it is a question not so ,
much of replacing forests as preser- ,
wing those we already have Our {
trees are not the same; our time of
planting altogether different from c
that prevailing in the north, and :
what applies there seldom does here. ;
"Hence, it was deemed necessary /;

yress to call the attention of the b

The Cracked Multi. Charge Gun.

The career of the large multi-charge
gun, invented by Colonel J. r. Haskins,
is ended. The Ordnance Board have
been testing the gun at intervals for
more than a year at Sandy Hook, and
after firing a round Thursday a crack
more than three feet long was discovered
in the tube which rendered it unfit for
use. Colonel Haskins said to a Tribune
reporter:
''T1is disabled gun is the largest one
ever constructed on the multi-eharge
pril ciple. The cause of the guns
cracking was not on account of any in
creased strain resulting from the combi-
nation of powder chambers, but was on
account Of defect in the metal casting.
Lieutenant Whipple, of the Ordnance
Board, said when it was completed that
it would have been rejected by the Gov
ernment if made for it, because its ten.
sile strain indicates only 5000 pounds
to the inch. The steel tube which forms
the inside cracked last year. but the out
side of the gun was uninjured. Three
metal bands sixteen feet wide by two
inches thick, were shrunk upon the gun
near the muzzle, where the tube was
cracked, to strengthen it. The expert
ments made have equalled my expecta-
tions, except that could not test the
gun to its full capacity on account Of the
break in the tube. l am going to Wash
ington to look after the 800, 600 appro-
priation that was given to me for con-
tinuing these experiments. The steel
Tor the next guns will have to be brought
fron, Euro,,a the mechanical work can
be done here. 1t has been demonstrated
that 10 the multi-charge gun each cham.
Der is discharged after the shot has
passed by it. This, it was said by ex-
perts, could not be done.
