Cause of Collisions at Sea.

How comes it that, with improved facilities,
wider distribution Of knowledge concerning
the avoidance of the dangers of the sea, and
greater necessity for caution, owing to the
popularizatlon of transatlantic travel, there
were more disasters among steamers last year
than in 1888! The fundamental reason is to
be found in that reckless, crazy desire to ar
rive first.
The idea first inaugurated By the crow of
the Shoewacamette. whose motto was "Get
there" has seized the captains of the trans
atlantic liners, and, without any regard to
safety or observance of the written or IN
written laws of the sea, they rush madly
through the fog and storm, needless of conse-
quenccs in order 10 achieve the final triumph,
a newspaper paragraph announcing quick
passage.
The owners Of the lines and the captains Of
the ships arc not alone to blame They seek
to meet public demand, and in striving to
satisfy it they endanger the lives of those
they desire to please A man will risk his
life by jumping the gap between the bow of
q feryboat and the slip, and then walk leis-
urely TO his home. Under q like impulse the
travellers Of the ocean, many of them bust
ness men, run all these risks in order TO ar
rive on this side on Sunday morning and
spend an idle day in tneir hotels.-The Forum.

Fifteen hundred worknen, with their wives
and sweetheartS. attended the annual picnic
Of the United Labor party In Bromners
Union park The festivities were begun in
the afternoon with games. There was an
egg race, in which only ladies were permitted
TO enter. There were nine entries Each
lady WIGS obliged 10 run a short distance with
a spoon held out in front of her containing
an egg. The lady reaching the goal first
with the egg in its normal condition Won the
prize. There was a great deal OF excitement,
especially among the mothers OF the racers.
One Of them shouted out 20 her daughter:

Chicago Grain and Produce.

Chicago. March 6-The markets were.
less active. except in corn, and even that
grain lost part of the boyancy displayed
YESTERDAY. The opening found a steadler
feeling in wheat, but a weaker and lower
one in corn and pathetic provision trade.
Fluctuations were confined to narrow
range. Wheat was decidedly scalper's
market. At times trading was quite brisk,
but during most of the day the pit was not
half full of operators. News from outside
was scarce and the little that they man
aged to get did not stimulate traolng.
Several scalpers made a plunge at the mar
ket and sold $4,000 to 10000 bushels, but
did not materially affect prices. May
opened at S03zc, sold at Sic down to s019@
SO7Ic for over an hour, finally closed at
S0@@S0%c.
Corn was again the leading speculative
article, and the volume of trading reached
a good aggregate. No new developments,
calculated to cause decided change in
the general situation were noted, and the
frequent changes that occurred, were que
directly to operations of local spectators.
Outsiders, however. are taking hold more
freely. May opened weak and 4@Bc
lower at 531sc, and sold up under com
petive buying to SIC. On the bulge offer
ings became free, several large houses
becoming heavy sellers, and filled the
crowd up and a reaction to $3.50 followed;
a nervous feeling existed. Shorts did not
feel disposed to stand on their trades, and
continued buying. A rally to 531sc fol-
lowed, but last safes were ut 53hl W533sc.
Oats were active and firm early, one lot
of 10000 bushels for May delivery being in
cluded in the sales. The market ranged
I@3sc lower early, but afterward sold
back and closed firm.
There was nothing doing in the provision
market to attract special attention. Light
weight scalpers were the principal traders;
fluctuations were confined to small range
and general feeling of steadiness pre-
vailed. May pork sold at s13.&219 at the
close. May lard was slow at S77O(0It5
and closed at s7.75. Short ribs sold at
S7.20a7.221@ and closed at 500.

SHAM CROWN JEWELS.
Alleged Fraudulent Transactions In tho
Recent Sale of ROYAL Gems in Paris.

Alleged Fraudulent Transactions In the
Recent Sale of Royal Gems in Paris.
1t is openly asserted in Paris that the re-
cent sale Of the crown jewels was largely
fraudulent. That is to say, they were not,
In many cases, the crown jewels at all A
syndicate of Paris jewelers. got into con-
splracy with some Of the governmental Off
GERS in charge of the sale, and had great
number OF ordinary gems taken from their
stores, mixed in and sold with the crown
jewels. Thus they brought far more than
their ordinary value. This job was, Of
coursa facilitated by the breaking up Of the
crown jewels, selling the stones separately
and melting down the gold. The detectives
stated that the spurious jewels thus sold
brought more than / 800 900 francs which
was nearly double what they would have
sold for on their own merits. Some Of these
false jewels have been traced and their pur-
chasers ascertained a few of them went to
America. But the majority of them could
rot be distinguished from the real crown
jewels among which they were sold The re-
suit Is that many purchasers will henceforth
always be IN doubt whether their gems came
from the royal treasure house OF France or
from rascal]y boulevard jewelers. shop.
That feet came out very eInphatically only
few days after the sale. A leading jeweler
OF Paris called on the government officers
who conducted the sale. Gentlemen said
he, ''you see this stoncl You identify it as
one OF the crown jewels! You perceive from
your records that it was knocked down to me
for 81, 900 francs' Very well, but it is pastel"
They examined it and found his word true
Who had stolen the real gem and put this in
its place could not be ascertained. But to
hush the matter up they returned to the
jeweler his 81 900 francs. sit would, dryly
remarked the detective, ''be very unfortunate
should this transaction become generally
known, for the government would quickly be
besieged by host of owners of passe gems,
al clamoring for the return of money al
legged to have been paid for them as crown
+ jewels"
JSe identity of some of the jewellers who
put u cir gems in the sale has been asce1-
tanned, bit it il he: thought that any action
viii be taken against them. There is not evil
dence sufficient to make out case against
them; and, moreover, since the gems thus
put in by them were real stones, it is very
doubtful if their offense is a penal one No
light has been thrown on the question of who
put in the paste. jewels. That, of course, was
a serious crime Nor is there vet any clew as
to which of the government officials it was in
the conspiracy. Could he or they be. found,
the penalty imposed would be severe.-Chi-

No Drunken Men in Japan.

Carter H Harrison, ex-mayor OF Chicago,
has been in Japan for some weeks past. From
long acquaintance with Chicago, MIR. Harri-
son was naturally astonished to find no
drunken men in Toxic, a city containing
over 900 900 inhabitants. So impressed was
be by the apparent sobriety Of the japanese
that he questioned the archbishop at Hoko-
hama as to its cause The archbishop ez-
planned that when japanese got drunk he
at once went to sleep.-New York World.

IN China all the roads except the imperial

To help the right side is not only com. mendable in general point of view, but is juaicious and prudent when that help IS enlisted in behalf of the right side of the body, just over tho lower ribs in the region of the liver. The most efficient help is afforded by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, an anti-bilious medicine of in- comparable efficacy. Inaction of the liver Is accompanied by constipation, sick k-headache, furrod tongue, nausea, oc- casi0nal vertigo, an unpleasant breath, yellowness of the skin and ball of the eye. The author of these symptoms, liver complaint, routed by the Bitters is accompanied by them in its flight.
