PLYMOUTH, Mass, Jan. IA FIRE which
started in the picker room Of the works Of
the Plymouth Cordage company this after
noon proved the most disastrous that ever
occurred in the town. The FIRE destroyed
the picker room building and two large man
ufsc:ories filed with valuable machinery and
CON bUstible material. The third factory waa
saved b. the utmost exertion Of the Gremen.
The operatives barely had time 10 save theII
lives. Freeman joyce, cripple 10 the picker

probably not recover. Jos. O'Ncal was badly
burned about the hands and arms, and Cbas
Peterson severely burned on the hands and

Chicago-New York Passenger Rates.

Chicago-New York Passenger Rates.
CHICAGO, Jan. 4.-No change in east
bound passenger rates could be discovered
to-day. First-class tickets from Chicago to
New York were sold by the direct routes al
$14 aud by the others at SIP so and $13. The
scalpers we're not pushing the matter OF
competition as earnestly as they did on
former occasions, and it WAS stated on the
outside that this was probably be-
cause they had secured large blocks
of tickets at price which would
not let them reduce them much below the
present rate. A scalper was found who said
he thought the rate would drop rapidly in
week or two and might reach s. before the
middle of the month. The roads are watch
ing each other very closely, and the moment
one is found cutting below the present figure
the bottom will again drop out. They say
there is no inducement to push the rate
question either up or down, as travel be-
tween Chicago and the east is so light that
one road could carry il all without crowdlng
the trains. The passenger meeting Monday
will probably be called upon to take some
action toward an adjustment of the trouble,
but they will find considerable difficulty in
reaching q conclusion.

REFUSING TO BE 90 uFoRrED.

The Northampton (Mass.) Gazette is one Of
the latest opponents of What Did 1t, and at
tributes the result that on the threshold of
victory kicked over the work of a quar-
ter of a century, to the "hot-headed,
loose-tongued, friendly-zealot, DR.. Burch-
ard. The party had conquered all the
other obstacles to its SUGGESTIVE solid south,
independent revolt, Prohibition detection,
stawart revenge, when comes along this
friendly-zealOt and extinguished the last
hope of the party. To use the Gazette's Ian
guage sat a critical time when only cool, wise
words were needed, he blurted out his ever
to-be-memorable ALTERATION, Rum, Roman
ism and Rebellion, more tickled with its
jingllug sound than impressed with its truth
and appropriateness" And so it goes on in
briny lamentation, refusing TO be eomfOrted,
piling all the bitterness, spitefulne SIS and dis
appointment onto the distinguished spokes-
man for the ministers that were invited to
the Blaine meeting, where the famous speech
was made and enjoyed without rebuke, until
1t was caught up by the opposition, spread
broad cast In circulars and by other means,
so that the tables were turned and the Repub-
licau party defeated. This Bourbon explana-
ton may be a solacing deluson. but it is as
narrow and limited view as 1t is possible TO

it holy seems to be a forgotten le-
gend with many of the Republican members
elect and the candidates Of that ilk for legisla-
tive Offices
There Is nothing but has some good feature
about it. For instance, the large minority in
which the Democrats find themselves in the leg
slature removes from them every incentive for
Sunday caucussng.
Much of the Sunday cau-cussing will end in
Monday swearing.
The frequency with which Norsk names were
uttered yesterday led to the suggestion by an I'M
regenerate Republican, native born, that the
name of the state should be changed from Min
nesota to 'Scandasota. No chrome was given
with the suggestion.
The senate is composed of forty seven mem
bers. OF that number eleven are Democrats,
and thirty six Republicans. OF those thirty six
Republicans there will almost certainly he absent
at the caucus this evening, the two Giillans and
r. b. Langdon, so that the candidate getting
seventeen votes will 'Gct there, Eli.''
The Republican caucuses will be held this even
ing in the respective Legislative chambers of the
two houses, probably converting at p. in.
The morning and noon trains to day will bring
most of the mem ers not yet arrived and then
lookout for lively work. These new arrivals
VIII most probably break some of the states now
made up.
All the railroad offices will have special rebate
tickets for swearing trains sale at an early
hour to -morrow morning.

BONDED WHISKY.
The President Opposed to the Regula-
IatiOns Proposed by the AttOr-
naV General.

hey UtutTdl.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4-Most unexpectedly
to all the parties concerned, the president
has decided to have something to say about
the extension Of the bonded period on whisky
by department order. He has intimated
to the secretary Of the treasury and the attor-
ncy general that he does not wish any regu-
Iations to give effect to the attorney generals
ate opinion promulgated until the cabinet
mas had chance to consider the matter.
The president does not want the treasury to
make bad showing for the
asst year of his administration. The
expenses of the government have exceeded
the receipts for the past two months, and
since the beginning of the fiscal year the
public debt has been reduced only $685. $780,,
300. Between January 6 and March taxes
will mature on 1000, 900 gallons of whisky,
md between March and July 6, the date
nearest to the close of the fiscal year,
taxes will mature on 12,000000 gallons
more. If the collection of these taxes
IS postponed six or eight months, the reduc-
ion of the public debt for the next six
months will be small, and the total for the
fiscal year will com pare uufavorably with the
reduction in previous years. The president
says the people most interested
in postponing the collection of the
whisky tax are Democrats. They
have applied for relief to a house
Of representatives controlled by their own
party aud have been refused In view of this
TACT, there is no particular reason why Re
publican administration should strain the
law in their behalf, and he is not favorably
disposed to the idea of suspending the re-
lemp tion of the debt and saving interest in
rider to afford a relief to Kentucky which a
Democratic house has refused. He may con-
sent to have the proposed new regulations go
into effect after March

NER COTTON PL4vr.

A new and better political era has dawned
upon the South and coincident with that in
the cotton growing states their great industry
is receiving a new impulse also. The Florida
Times Union gives some description Of this
new cotton plant, which it is thought, must
prove immensely valuable 1t seems that
for a number of years cotton planter Of
Macon, Georgia, Mr. A. a. Subers, has been
engaged in assayiug or experimenting to
hybridIze the cotton plant that grows wild in
Florida with the common okra. The new
plant, Il Is sal |, retains the okra stalk and
foliage Of the cotton. but its fruit and flower
are strikingiy unlike either cotton or okra.
The plant is Of the average height of two feet,
and there Is only one bloom to each, and
this an unusually fine flower, as large rs
the Magnolia aud of much the same
fragrance. The flower Is white at iirst, then
pale pink aud gradually grows darker until
il becomes red, and finally drops ball of
the size of tho cOcuanut. At this stage the
lint appears and the now snowy threads burst
from the ball, or mould, If not held in place
hy the okra-like thorus that line the ball
There are no seeds in the lint, but at the bot
tom of the ball are from four to six seeds, in
appearance like persimmon seeds. Each ball
produces about two pounds Of very long
stnppled cotton, superior, It Is said, to the
Sea Island. An ordinary picker viii gather
eight hundred pounds per day, and some Of
tue experts can get much more. The new
cotton needs no ginning, and It Is easy to
realize how such plant would revolutiouize
the cotton industry Of the south. Mr.. Shu
ber's tests are believed to be so complete and
accurate that he is regarded as worthy Of the
everlasting gratitude Of southern farmers,
for the new plant he has produced.

Our esteemed and frenzied cotemporary,
the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette, pays the
following lurid compliment to the Mug
wumps:
Its tolerably evident that if the Mugwumps
are 10 find a home and comfortable corner any
where in political party, 1t will not be in the
Republican household There is nothing too
mean for them in their abuse of the Republican
cause, no matter what shape itappears in. There
is no lie in a Democratic newspaper that they do
not Zealously echo. There is not any dose too
bitter for them They are cinging TO Cleveland s
coat tail and begging for any sort OF recognition
Of their presence. They are all abusing Mr..
Evarts for being candidate for the United States
senate. and they have developed a strange affec-
ton for President Arthur. II comes little
awkward for them to defend Arthur for his 10y
atty TO the Republican ticket. But some of them
are equal even to that.
The Mugwumps will probably continue TO
exist without the smiles of the Republican
party. They can hardly wish further affinity
with party demoralized enough to support
q candidate of the proved shabbiness and all
that that implies of the late lamented. The
Independents are discussing the propriety Of
elfectiDg formal organization, in which
case they will have household of their ow
