CABLE CAR CALAMITY.
Seventeen Persons Injured at st.

ST. PAUL, January PA cable car
this afternoon got away from the grip
on Seely avenue and ran off the track

three persons were fatally injured and
fourteen badly hurt.

that in some unexplainable way at
the top of the hill the grip refused to
respond to the efforts OF the gripman
to control the car. With the passen-
ger car it dropped away down the hill
and soon attained a speed of twenty
miles an hour. At the bottom oi
Seely avenue is a sharp curve, and

FRANCES VINEYARDS.
Poor Cr0ps-The Wine Trade
Badly Injured.


CHICAGO, January 27.-Adolph
Houssaye writes from Paris to the
local papers that the wine interests of
France are in bad way. The vim
tage of 1886 was the poorest in thirty
years, both in quantity and quality,
but the vintage of 1888 proves to be
poorer still. Those whose vineyards
have not been devastated by phyl-
loxera, and who therefore have good
wine, will get very high prices; but
most of the wine-growers will have to
face serious losses.
AS A RESULT OF THIS
The balance of the foreign wine trade
is heavily against France. Instead of
selling wine to others, she now has to
buy it for her own use.
Ten years ago more than so, 900, 900
gallons were annually exported, while
the imports scarcely exceeded 5,O00,-
600. Last year France sold only 54,-
OOO, 900 gallons of wine, while her
purchases amounted to the enormous
total of 260, ,0OO, 900 gallons. She &C.
tually imported half as much as she
made.
THE WORST FEATURE
Of the case, however, pertains not to
the quantity but to the quality of the
wine. Some $4,000 tons of sugar
were used last year to fortify the pro-
duct of the wine presses. There were
during the year imported into or man
ufactured in France no less than 120,-
OO0, 900 gallons Of . mixture COM
pounded from raisins, cider and refuse
of wine presses. This has been doc
tored and sold as wine. There also
have been imported some millions ol
gallons Of crude spirits, manufactured
in Germany from potatoes and beet

SAN FRANCISCO, January 27.-Many
of the leading viticulturists who
have considered the matter have ex-
pressed themselves as strongly in
favor of the savings and loan

details of the scheme have not
yet been worked out, but it is under
stood that the proposed bank will be
an industrial institution similar to the
Changers Bank, the stockholders to
be only vineyard owners. The heme

REVENUE REFORM.
1t is Discussed mt a Meeting I'm
Philadelphia.

PhAlade1ph1a.
PHILADELPHIA, January27.-A tariff
meeting was held at the Academy of
Music this morning to enforce and en-
dorse the recommendations of Presi-
dent Arthur and President Cleveland
for revenue reform. Wilson Welch,
of the Commercial Exchange, pre-
sided. Two hundred well-known citi-
zens of both parties, among them ex-
Governors Hoyt and Pattison, were
present. The feature of the evening
was an oration given by Congressman
Breckenridge, of Kentucky. Letters
of regret from Hugh McCulloch, s. s.
Cox, Secretary Faircbild, Speaker
Carlisle, David A. Wells and others
were read.
THE PLATFORM ADOPTED
Says: A reduction is necessary for an
excessive revenue is revised taxation,
and it was resolved that the existing
duties upon raw materials which are
to be used in manufactures should be
removed and that the duties on ar
ticles used or consumed by those who
are least able to bear the burden Of
taxation should be reduced.
BRECKENRIDGE SPEECH.
Breckenridge was the first speaker.
He said that the question Of taxation
was the most important with which
the government had to deal, and that
the question was now before the
American people in an imperative
manner. Congress had but recently
refused the question of consideration,
but since then the President had de-
clared that the tariff is to-day the one
question most worthy of the attention
Of Congress and the atten-
ton of the country. The surplus
threatens business panics, end is edu-
eating people to false idSas OF their
relations to the Government. The
money IN the Treasury IL not the
money of the Government; it is the
money of the people, wrung from
them by false and wrong policy of
taxation. The trade of Canada and
South America and Mexico has been
lost to the United States by a false
system of taxation. The leather
trade of the country has thrived since
hides have been allowed to come in
free.
THE LABOR QUESTION.
Referring to the many labor
troubles in Pennsylvania, Brecken-.
ridge said: "When labor is discon-.
tented. the system must be wrong,
and the surest guarantee of the pros
perity of a government is the content
and tranquility of labor, which we do
not have now because our system is
false and we must abandon it. What
is wanted is for the people, the labor
ing people, to get out of their minds
the idea that the labor of America
needs protection against the labor of
Europe, and to get into that that the
best protection for labor is independ-
ent manhood"
FEW REMARKS FROM HURD.
Ex-C x-Congressman Hurd was intro
duced and greeted warmly. He made
an elaborate argument to demonstrate
that the tariff was not in reality the
protection of American labor and
American enterprise, but only in some
instances handmade to monopoly.

BRUHN WAS NOT DEAD.

l The old Plantigrade Surprised MT, French by Knocking Him sixteen Feet.
 WnLIAMsPoRT, Pa., May 1S.-Samuel Lusk I is farmer living in the vicinity of Cogan House, this county. A bear killed one of his sheep the other day and as soon as the fact was known party consisting of S. O'Hart, H. H. French and Abe s. Herman, neighbors of MT. Lusk, and that gentleman himself got their guns, axes and hounds and started after the beast. The men and dogs had bear on the brain and after lively chase of mile or
 so bruin was treed.
 MT. French, the most experienced hunter of the party, demanded the privilege of climb
 ing the tree to shoot bruin All consented
 and he boldly climbed the knotty oak. Get
 ting in good position he drew a bead on the
 bear and shot between the eyes brought the scended. To cut the beasts throat was
 French's next work and he approached the dying prey with apparent disconcern. But the bear was not dead and with a powerful effort he started up and dealt the hunter terrible blow alongside the head which sent him flying into clump of bushes at least sixteen feet away. The hounds which ven- tured close enough were similarly treated. The other men stood in mute silence, either being afraid to make an assault or too much terrified. However, French bobbed up serenely, and grasping an axe firmly he again approached the raving mad beast. A we'll directed blow settled bruin. His blood was let at the throat and the hunters bore their game home in triumph. The bear weighed bear killed in the vicinity of Cogan House for some time

MR. BLAINE HAS NO HEIRS Ills Wishes Are That the Best Man M May Wtn-HIs Friends Not Intriguing te Force HIS Nomination.

PTTsBURG, May 1S.-B. r. Jones, chair man of the Republican National committee, who has just arrived from the East, was in- terviewed to-day and replying to many in- ouiries said: "Mr. Blaine has not appointed a residuary legatee nor has he expressed a preference for any one of the candidates. His wishes are that the best man may win. MT. Blaine will not write another letter affirming or withdrawing his declination, at least see no reason why he should.

Blaine's close friends have had concerted action for the purpose of putting him for- ward again as a candidate, nor is there any truth in the report that MT.

 MONTREAL, May 18.-The trial of Detective Nagle and Constable Bureau was begun to- day. A startling discovery has been made in connection with the case Frank Wilson wrote letter from Boston to partyf.here that one of the principal proofs. against the prisoners was to be found in Hairy Phillips house. HGo up stairs" he wrote, ''into the attic and you will find there thieves' trap for secreting goods" The information was imparted to the authorities, and, true enough, the trap was found. It consisted of a box of heavy plank nailed to the flooring. It was filled with sawdust probably to cover stolen goods. It took quite while to find the door, which opened by secret spring. The saw dust looked as though goods had been pulled out of it recently, but nothing was found. It is rumored that a number of startling dis- closures will be made at this trial.
