motion" Members of the party were now claim
ing that they did not mean what they said in
the Chicago platform. IL the Republicans
should get into power. and did not wipe out the
internal revenue, there was but one thing to do,
aud that was to follow the Democrats. The
Democrats found it necessary TO provide some
means for emptying the treasury; they had
to adopt some means of getting the money out,
and putting it in the hands OF the people
where it rightfuliy belonged. What would be-
come OF the mortgages and debts of the people
of Indiana if the process OF locking MP the
money In the treasury continued The amount
Of employment for laboriug men depended upon
the amount OF money In circulation. Whenever
q dollar was taken out of circulation and locked
up In the treasury it was taken out of the
pockets Of the people. With the money locked
up men were unable to buy, consumption was
restricted, and production was necessarily re-
stricted also. The Democrats, he repeated, pro-
posed to release this money and send it back to
the poor people to whom it belonged.
The speaker then took mp several sections Of
the bill, and attempted TO prove that the labor
ing men Of the country would be benefited by
the changes made. He said that it was with re-
luctance that the duty was reduced on tobacco.
The whole Republican party in q solid phalapx
WAS opposed to reducing the duty on the neces-
sities of life, and therefore tobacco had to be
touched. Democrats were told that the bill was
a free-trade measure. and yet there was a reduc-
ton of less than 5 per cent. Free trade, as he
understood it, meant trade that was free in all
its restraints. A long fimo ago the Democrats
were called free traders because they believed
that the existence of a revenue was to support an
economic administration and nothing more.
American labor got less for what it did than
that of any country of Europe. Labor WAS not
protected. 1t was the thing that labor made
that was protected. Ii was the property that
was projected against competition. and not
labor. Labor was governed wholly by the sup
ply and demand. After the speaker had gone
through the schedule. he said he was ashamed

LEXINGTON, Jan. 1.-The following six persons were killed in yesterdays collision of Cincinnati railroad trains on 0 sixty foot ela- bankment a mile south of Greenwood, Ky: Lee Withrow, baggage master, Ludlow, Ky; James Severns, postal clerk. Stanford, Ky; T. Candee, fireman, Chattanooga, Tenn; Lawrence 0. Allen, baggage master, Ludlsw, Ky; w. B. Powell, express messenger, Mad isonville, O.; Miss Jessie Green Chattanooga.
 Among those injured most severely are MT. and Mrs. Alvey, Covington, probably fatally; Sam Shrumm. conductor, internally; J. B.
 Gibson, Cincinnati, probably fatally scalded; Joe Nolan, colored porter on train No. 9; William D. Michaels, engineer of No. 3; Patrick Taylor, Somerset, Ky. engineer No. 1; Pat Murphy, Junction, Ky, fireman No. 1; W. T. Roberts, Riceville, Tenn, mail service; W. E.

O., travelling passenger Chicago and Alton rail road; Joe Hepp, Covington, Ky, Dick Pat- ton, Ludlow. Ky, brakemen; J. E.. Camp bell, Hanover, o. In addition to the above train No. which came north this evening carried to Cincinnati five or six badly in- JufeO passengers In the DOuOO1E car &uO the railroad officials refused to allow reporters access to them or to give their names or in juries. Two cars, the mail and baggage of No. 1, took fire and were burned. It is re- ported that an unknown passenger was crushed and burned in the water closet of train No. 2. The collision was caused by Conductor Sherman misreading orders delivered to him at Winfield. He mistook Summit for Somerset and hurried his train down the grade at fifty miles an hour to make that point, probably running at that speed when the collision occurred. The bag gage car and smoker of No. 2 rolled down the embankment and the ladies' car of this train was thrown on the engine, the injured being thereby scalded- The regular passing point of Nos. 1 and is Flat Rock, south of the wreck. The engines colided with such force that they were impscted together, the boilers shattered and discharging their con- tents in few minutes. An attempt to pull the engines apart failed and they were rolled over the ennbankment to clear the track.
 A special to the Courier-Journal from Somerset says: There is no doubt that several persons were burned to death. A number of oharred bodies were found where the smok- ing car of No. 1 was burned. Early this morning the charred remains of what is sup posed to be Fireman Condes were dragged out of the debris. The only thing left un- burned WAS his boots.

THE REVISED STATUTES.

When Issued and at What Price. The first eight copies of the revised stat utes were delivered by the Case, Lockwood & Brainard company of Hartford Saturday to the revision commission. The first edition is to be two thousand copies, and as directed by legislative resolution they are delivered by the printer to the comptroller, who is to distribute free one copy to each town clerk, each judge aud clerk Of the Superior court, Court of Common Pleas, District, Police and Probate courts and to each member of the legislature, and five hundred copies to the State librarian for exchange with other States and libraries. The copies of this first edition will be received by the comptroller next week at the rate of about one hundred and fifty daily. The entire two thousand copies will not be exhausted in supplying the persons named in the resolution, only about one thousand being required, and whatever re- mains over will go to Brown 6 Gross of comptroller as agents for the sale of the books to the public. But it is not probable that Brown 6 Gross will receive any copies until the second week in January. Another edition will immediately follow the first, and there will then be full supply for the public.
 The statute fixes the selling price on the old system. That is, the cost to the agent will be merely the printers charge for paper, press work and binding. To this he may add per cent. on all copies sold to the trade, and 20 per cent. on copies sold to in- dividuals. The figures have not yet been de- termined, but it is estimated that the cost of each copy to individuals will be about the cost of the former revision, which was $2 25. Brown 6 Gross have already received large number of orders for the book, but do not expect to be able to fill them until week after next. This delay will be somewhat annoy ing to attorneys and others needing the new revision now, as it goes into effect January 1, but they will find the same laws in the old version and the subsequent public acts, though in less convenient form.
 The revision commission have forwarded four of their eight copies to three courts, two in New Haven, one in Norwich, which meet next Monday, and to the Supreme court which comes in next Tuesday in Hartford.

About $15,- GOO of this will be recovered by attachment. His property at Herkimer is large, and although he owes considerable, it is probable that the losses to others will not be as great as first thought Attachments for $65, GOO have been placed in the hands of Sheriff Cooke His residence, valued at $75, 900, was deeded to his brother-in-law, c.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-The officers of the
 Equitable Gas company claim thas last
 nights explosion, which wrecked part of their

The Pope blessed all present and left he cathe- dral at Il 8 m., the whole audience express ing it's joy by clapping hands, waving hats and handkerchiefs and enthusiastic acclama- tions. Later in the day King Hunbert ex- pressed himself to deputation from Parlia ment as being highly satisfied with the smoothness of the ceremony, which, he said, was the best proof of the Pope's liberty in Rome.
 Forty-eight cardinals and 238 archbishops and bishops were present at mass and it is claimed that there were thirty thousand peo- pie in the audience. The Pope prayed for Q long time in his private chapel and then re- ceived the homage of the court cardinals in the Sala Ducale. While assuming the sacer- dotal garments the Pope was overcome with emotion and tainted. Strong salts were ad ministered and he soon returned to conscious ness. He then ascended the gestatorial chair and was borne on the shoulders of the sediari, attended by the cardinals, into St. Peters cathedral. Just before he was fully vested for the altar he again tainted, remaining unconscious 8 few minutes. The mass occupied twenty eight minutes. After pronouncing the benediction the Pope again seated himself in the gestatoria1 chair and was borne around the altar to the Capel- Ia del Sacramento where he offered up a prayer of thanksgiving.
