Will Cotton Answer for Baggins

Someof tho southern newspapers are sug-
gesting the use of cotton duck as q substi-
tute for bagging, in order to get out of the
clutches of the bagging trust. No doubt
the cotton planters would gladly avail
themselves of any suggestion that would
enable them to get n cheaper wrapping for
their cotton than bagging at the prices at
which it is now held by the trust.
But is there any wisdom in the cotton
duck suggestions With cotton at 10 cents
pound, would it be possible for the cotton
mills to manufacture a wrapping for cotton
bales that would come anywhere near being
as satisfactory as bagging is, at prices for
which bagging can be had, even at trust
figures!
Cotton is being put to new uses all the
time, and the demand for it keeps pace
with the supply, although the supply is
steadily increasing. The cotton sack, for
instance, is gradually taking the place of
the barrel as a receptacle for flour. A sack,
sufficient to hold barrel of -four, costs
only about half as much as a barrel, and
-four keeps as sweet in a sack as in a barrel.
A great deal of the best quality of -four
that comes to this market is contained
i'll sacks, and very considerable percentage
of purchasers, particularly those in the
country would rather buy it in sacks, be-
cause the sacks can be utilized to better ad-
vantage than barrels.
Cotton duck would have been used, PROB
ably, before this as wrapping for cotton
bales If it could have been done as cheaply
as jute bagging can be utilized for that pur
pose. The trust will have to raise tn price
of bagging considerably higher than it is at
present before cotton cloth can be used
profitably for wrapping cotton tales.

Not a Republican Love Feast.
Fror the Neip York World (DemN

The story that Mr.. Harrison is dissatisfied, ,
that he proposes to decline the nomination for
President, and that Blaine is to be put upon the
ticket while the bloom is on his reception boom,
absurd as it is, shows that great many repub-
lcans are chagrined by the excessive exaltstion
OF the man from Maine There is no likelihood
that Mr. Harrison will decline. He may be sore,
but battery of artillery could not shake him
off the ticket. Such swapping of horses as is
hinted at in republican circles would give Mr..
Cleveland an absolute walk over.

Up-hin Work of indiana Republicans.

Uphill Work of Indiana Republicans.
The nomination of Gen. Alvin p Hovey
by the Indiana republicans, Is not calcu-
lated to strengthen the republican national
ticket in that state. There is reported to
be great deal of hostility TO Gen. Hovey
among the republican leaders. and although
all Of them win support him, they will not
do so with as much enthusiasm as they
would have supported ex-Gov. Porter.
They all recognize Porter's popularity
and superior political strength.
They could not have found fault, there
fore, with his nomination But some of
them arc confident that more popular
nomination than Gen. Hovey's could have
been made, and they will find it difficult to
get rid of the thought that it would give
them great deal of satisfaction TO see the
correctness of their opinions confirmed by
the result of the election. This feeling
among the leaders will be recognized by
the party, and it will therefore be difficult
matter to make the campaign a spirited
and effective one.
Gen. Hovey represents the first district of
Indiana in congress, and is regarded as
man of fair ability. He is nearly IS years
of age, and has had good deal to do with
the politics of his state for almost half a
century. In the earlier part of his political
career he was a democrat, but since the war
he has been a republican. Many of the In
diana republicans do not believe that he is
as strongly in favor of the protective tariff
system as a republican candidate for gov
ernor of their state ought to be but in view
of the fact that he voted against the Mills
bill, it is probable that his tariff views will
pass muster with his party.
The Indiana republicans do not begin the
campaign under very encouraging pros
poets, and it is extremely doubtful if state
pride will be sufficient to enable them to
carry their state for Gen. Harrison They
are having uphill work from the start, and
that kind of work is always discouraging.

a CORRESPONDENT OF a LOnuOn paper at Paris
writes: "Gen. Boulanger has not been fairly
dealt with in the accounts of his duel with NJ
F1oquet, being accused of having dashed in
upon his adversary Now, there was very
good reason for the general wishing to get to
close quarters. He has several times been seri-
ously wounded In battle, and does not enjoy the
free use of his right arm. In fact, ne cannot
lunge out, and was obliged 10 close upon NJ.
Floquet in order to get within striking or rather
sticking, distance IL was in this way that the
duel degenerated into n seeming scuflie and
that the general ended by spiking himself on
the weapon of his opponent-an accident which
often happens. | remember, for example Mr.
Dillon running on the sword of the Due de
Gramont Caderousse and killing himself and
NJ. Aureen Scheil grievously wounding him

An INTERESTING ESSAY on the poison of
spiders was recently delivered by Prof. Brieger
of Halle, before a society of naturalists. "Ex-
periments made with two kinds Of Russian
spiders reputed to be venomous showed them
to be innocuous, but the third species belonging
TO the same region and properly termed the
black wolf, was found fully to bear out its repu-
tation. Its poison is more powerful, perhaps,
than any known, not excepting prussic acid and
strychnine. II makes great ravages among
Russian live stock, attacking the animals as
they Craze. 1t nfcts a sting on the mouth or
tongue which causes death in short time
The venom pervades the entire system of the
spider, constituting about % per cent Of its
weight. The poison belongs to the clnss of So
called feiments being composed of albuminous
matter, II is rendered inactive when subjected
to the action of alcohol IL produces no effect
when taken in the stomach, but when introduced
into the blood vessels il acts so powerfully that
two or three milligrammes will suffice to kill q

Germany and has found one only TO be venom

CRUSHED TO DEATH.
One Man Fatally and Another Seriously In
jured While Working On Wrecked Train.

As the early outgoing train on the Cincinnati,
Hamilton g. Dayton road yesterday morning
reached the bridge over Pogue's run, one of the
wheels of the forward cars gave way. causing a
derailment of five coaches. but fortunately. be-
yond big scare, one was injured. Running
parallel with the bridge which the accident
occurred is a second bridge and this the
baggage cars rested, thus preventing, doubtless,
q catastrophe.
The serious results of the wreck occurred la
ter. The wrecking train was at once sent for
and large force of men had cleared away all the
wreck except the truck from one of the baggage
cars when. as the trucks were being gradually
lifted by the derrick. the fastenings slipped and
the mass precipitated between the bridges. The
trucks in falling, caught Fred Bond and Samuel
G. Patterson and carried them into the creek
below. Bond broke through the ice in
such way as to ease the weight upon his
legs and prevent them being broken. but he re-
ceived a severe cash in his head, and was other
wise injured, though it is thought not fatally
He has a wife and seven children.
Patterson was pushed against the stone abut-
ment, and the greater part of the weight of the
truck rested upon his chest injuring him inter
nally. With but little hope of recovery. nc was
taken to DR.. Marsees Office, where he died at
o'clock yesterday afternoon. His home was in
Woodside addition where he leaves a wife and
three children.

have expended money in fruitless
efforts TO obtain supply of gas where it
was evident that the supply would be
inadequate for the purpose. There has been no
money expended in inducing competitors to

saneuine expectations. The fact is demonstrated
that we have within our reach already supply

furnished to consumers at 'lrices not to exceed

nance rate would be reduced, and all persons
contracting with the company are to have the
benefit of such reductions when made. We have
already reduced the rates to manufacturers be-
low those fixed by the schedule contained in the
city ordinance, and expect in the near future to
make further substantial reductions. We call
attention to the fact that the existing ordinance
was framed, after careful investigation, in the
interests of the people rather than in the inter
ests of grasping moDopoiies who wish TO make
fortunes out of what they suppose to be the peo-
pies necessities.
