The HUDSON Bay Railroad.

Ground has just been broken, says the
New York Sun, for the building of the
Hudson Bay railroad. The world will
watch with interest the development of
this remarkable enterprise. 1t is ex-
pected to complete this fall from forty
to sixty miles of the line, which is to
connect the wheat fields of Manitoba
and the Saskatchewan valley with tide
water at Port Nelson.
The meagre news we have recently
received of the Alert's second voyage 10
Hudson Bay last summer seems to JUS
tify the faith and enthusi SIN of the men
who are putting their money into this
railroad. 1.-The practicability of the
strait is solved" is the word sent over
land by Lieut.. Gordon from Port Mel
son. Capt. Markham, who made the
nearest approach to the North Pole be-
fore Lockwood's achievement, and who
is an authority on ice navigation, also
sailed in the Alert. He telegraphs: 81
think the route is practicable four
months, and possibly five. The nature
of the ice IN the strait is favorable to
navigation"
The fact Is, the navigability of Hud-
son Strait and Bay for several months
every year was practically demonstrated

The Long StnnIc.

1t was our pleasure this morning 10
visit the cotton ginning establishment of
III. +. Dutton & Co., OF Gainesville,
where we found one hundred hands en-
ployed in handling and ginning cotton.
Persons who have never visited such
places cannot conceive an idea of the
amount of work done in ginning mills
The cotton is first spread upon a large
wooden platform 10 sun, after which it
is shaken out and again summed before
allowed to go through the gins. As all
the cotton handled by II. +. Dutton &
Co. is sold to the Willimantic Thread
Company, of Willimantic, Conn, 1t Is
carefully prepared for final manufacture
before ii leaves this place. as all refuse
is rejected before IL goes through the
gins. Another inspection is also held
before the cotton is baled, thus causing
the packed bales to contain nothing but
the finest and best article of cotton. The
cotton forwarded TO manufactures by
the Messrs. button & Co. is of the finest
quality, already prepared for weaving
and spinning. -Ocdld Bonner.

long ago. Nearly every year for 276
years sailing vessels, from the little pin
nance to the 74-gun man-of-war, have
sailed through the strait and bay, and
in all that time only three vessels are
recorded as lost.
While this railroad was projected as
convenient outlet for the products of the
great Northwest of Canada, it will per
haps offer us few incidental advanta-
ges. We have looked upon Hudson Bay
as a sub-Arctic region almost beyond the
reach of our activities. These six hum
dred miles of railroad will bring this
great sea within four or five days OF
New York. On its shores feathered
game of all sorts is wonderfully album
bundant. 1t is said that the posts of the
Hudson Bay Company in one autumn
killed 10000 wild geese. When Sir
Thomas Burton wintered on the Nelson
river, along which the railroad will be
built, his party killed mo less than
1880 dozens of cartridges AMI other
game" Who knows but 1t may be-
come a popular amusement for our
sportsmen to visit Hudson Bay in the
summer months for a weeks shooting.

The Electric Light Wires.

The city committee on electrical appliances
held meeting Saturday afternoon to take
into account the state Of things occasioned
by the ''ice embargo" ON electric wires. In
view of the fact that the Electric Light
Company expressed their willingness and
ability to light the city on Thursday night,
and subsequently, but werenot allowed to do
SO on account of the danger arising from
telephone, fire alarm and telegraph wires
falling across the electric light wires, the
committee resolved to offer an order at the
meeting of the Board of Mayor and Alder
men this evening, requiring all companies
and individuals using and maintaining wires
for transmission of intelligence, light, heat
or power, to attach to their wires some safe
ty device or catch in order to prevent fire
resulting from said wires coming in contact
with wires carrying high tension currents
The committee will leave nothing undone
to put all the electric appliances in the city
in perfectly safe condition, and to restore
the lights at the earliest possible moment.

gureIary of summer cottages.

During the storm of Thursday the summer
cottages of the two Lamsons and Mr.. j. p.
Baxter, at Diamond Island, were broken in
to by burglars. At Mr.. C. H. Lamson's a
part of the cottage was torn down, and at
Mr.. j. H. Lamson's portion OF the lattice
work was pulled away and then entrance
made from the basement up through the
flooring At Mr.. Baxter's the door in the
rear was forced open with jimmy. A num-
Der of valuable articles were taken among
others handsome silver ice pitcher. In
formation of the burglary was brought to
the city Saturday.
Friday evening the cottage of Mr.. Henry
Loring at Cape Elizabeth was entered by
some parties unknown and several articles
stolen, the exact amount not being known.
The cottage of W. Fl. Clifford was also en-
tered, but the thieves were evidently fright
ened from there, as nothing is missing The
burglary was undoubtedly committed by
parties from this city, as the track of a
sleigh was plainly seen leading from this
direction up TO the cottages, and the place
where the horse was hitched was found.

daughter was in the room with her father,

but life was extinct. The physician said il

Accidents.

VIM. Halloran, liner for the telephone
company, fell from pole corner of York
and Banks streets Friday, distance of SO
feet, and injured his spine.
Last Friday afternoon, Mrs. II. NJ. Hum
phrey slipped on the icy sidewalk and sus-
tanned a severe shock to the spine. She was
better yesterday.
The ship Charger has unloaded all her car
go destined to this port and was ready to
sail Thursday, but she became so badly iced
up in the storm that she was unable to move
and was still laying at the Grand Trunk
wharf Saturday afternoon. AS the crew
were knocking the ice from the shrouds
large piece fell from the cross trees and
struck one of the crew on the head. The
man was stunned and had to be carried be-
low It is thought his injuries were not
serious.
Saturday forenoon, a gentleman whose
name we did not learn had narrow escape
on Commercial street. He was crossing the
street, and just as he reached the railroad
track an ice-laden telegraph or telephone
wire broke and fell directly in front OF him,
throwing him down across one of the rails.
A train came along before he could regain
his footing, and he barely escaped being
crushed under the wheels by rolling over to
the outside of the track just as the cars
passed by.
One of the linemen employed in repairing
the wires of the fire alarm at the corner of
Green and Portland streets yesterday was
hit by large piece of falling ice on the head
and cash cut an inch and a half long. He
was not seriously injured
There was report that Miss Rosa True
of the Park street school was run over and
considerably hurt yesterday but inquiring at
the house showed the rumor was incorrect.
