Gus railroad wrecks except the coils
ion on the New York, Pennsylvania
and Ohio Railroad, in which eight
persons were killed and as many
more seriously injured; but there
were fifteen marine disasters, involy-
ing a loss of 165 lives, included
among them being the steamboat
Paris c. Brown, which went down in
the Mississippi river, costing the
loss of III lives. February and March
also were singularly free from rail
road disasters, but the marine losses
in February were 2S4, an increase of
1l9 over January. During the same
month 20 persons lost their lives by
a railroad disaster in Belgium, 10
by wind storm in Nebraska, 80 by
the terrible hotel fire in Hartford,
Conn, 200 by an earthquake in Costa
Rica, Is by cyclone in Georgia and
IL by powder explosion in Wilkes
barre, Pa. In March the marine
losses further increased to 351, the
number being swelled by the LAG
sailors of the German and American
vessels who were drowned during the
hurricane at the Samoan Islands. In
May the floods began their work of
death and devastation. The first
intelligence came from Austria and
Bohemia, where 1875 lives were lost.
The consummation was in the Cone
maugh Valley on the last day of the
month, when about 10000 persisted
and $10,000,00O worth of property
was destroyed. The month was
characterized by a frightful series
of disasters. Thirty persons were
killed by an accident on the Penn.

railroad disaster at Armaugh, Ire

falling market building in Mexico;
10 by a mine disaster in Austria,
and 20 by cyclone in Cuba. July
well kept up the record with rail
road, mine and storm disasters. AL
together during the first six months
of the year nearly $4,000 lives were
lost in disasters of all kinds. Be-
sides the loss of property involved
in these disasters, fire has swept
away property amounting to over
$70, 100000 in value in the United
States. 1t adds to the mournful
record of the six months that sui
cides, murders, hangings, lynchings
and crimes of all kinds have also
shown a marked increase over the
corresponding period for many years
past.-Chicago Tribune.

The failure of another woollen
manufacturing establishment in
Pennsylvania last week, says the
Boston Globe, makes the fifth that
has occurred in that State within
the past few weeks. New York re-
cords two failures in the woollen in
dustry, Connecticut two, Rhode Is
land two, and Maine one The list
promises to receive fresh additions
every week.
1t is evident that something more
than mere theory is confronting
US, or as heavy manufacturer wrote
to Wade's Fibre and Fabric the

lessons daily"
Meanwhile the increase of import
ed woollen goods from abroad is al
the rate of over 100000 yearly
and has now reached, according te
the last reports, $50, 564,942. There
is something for the "home indus
try" people to put in their pipes and
smoke. This increasing importation
of foreign woollens is wholly due tt
the tax on raw wool. Every yard O.
the middle grade woollens that W,
import might be produced at home
but for the excessive duty on thos'
grades of wool which alone make i
possible for us to compete with thu
English manufacturers.

just a Few Figures.

There are on the pension rolls very
nearly half million names.
The amount spent for all purposes
last year by the bureau was in round
numbers 100000.
The total expenditures of the gov.
eminent for the same time were $267,.
900, 900.
That is to say, the amount spent
on account of pensions was ovel
thirty per cent of the entire outlay Of
the government
The money which this country has
appropriated for the support of its
boys in blue since 1861 reaches the
very respectable sum of 81, 100000,

We refer to these figures simply
to show that the people have never
been niggardly as to the pension
list
Whatever may be said of republics
in general, it is reasonably clear that
this particular Republic has beer
profoundly grateful.
Perhaps we may be permitted tt
add that a larger number of specia
pension acts were approved by Grover
Cleveland than by any two Presi
dents since the South fired on Sum
