Those who are anxious to get pro-
hibition Unto State constitutions
would do we'll to study the case Of
Rhode Island. Some time ago an
amendment was attached to the
constitution Of that state prohibit
ing the manufacture aud sale of Ii.
quor. But the amendment once in
the constitution the people seemed
to think the question Of intemper-
ance settled and made no systematic
effort to enforce the law, and it is
claimed that the lawlessness and
increased dissipation that followed
disguised the people and both po-
litical parties were compelled to IA
vor re submission of the prohibition
question, and there is no doubt but
the former decision will be reversed.
One thing speaks loudly against
probition- the liquor men are
against re-submitting the question
to the people.

hela House at Pittsburg.

PITTsBURG, Dec 5.-Fire broke out
this morning. az $3.50 o'clock, in the
Monongahela house, one of the old
est and best known hotels in the
city. At II 80 o'clock, less than two hours
after the fire was discovered, the flames
were under control, and nothing remained
of the magnificent structure but the
four blackened walls AS far as known
there were no fatalities. There were
number OF narrow escapes, but the en-
ployes and guests all got out out safely.
Among those having miraculous escapes
we're Mr.. Mason of New York, and Mr..
Underwood of Milwaukee Mr.. Mason was
compelled to come down from the fourth
floor on rope made of bed-ticking. Mr..
Underwood had his face scorched and his
beard singed. The building destroyed COW
cred an entire block, and was seven stories
in hight. 1t was owned by Charles J..
Clarke, Florence G.. Miller, and the Crossan
heirs, and was valued by them, with
the lot, at S5O0,00O The Insurance is
S197, 800. of which 100000 is on the build
ing aud $37 500 on the stock A peculiar
feature of the fire was that all the papers
were drawn for the sale and transfer of the
building at 3 O'Clock this afternoon, the
price being $475,0)0. Most of the guests
lost all their personal property.

DANGERS TO NAVIGATION.
Two Sunken Vessels in the Path to
New York,

CHARLESTON, Dec. 5.-Capt Chipister,
of the steamer Delaware, at Charleston
from New York, reports that on Dec. 3, in
latitude 81 O6' and longitude rs ~, he
passed a vessel bottom up, about $50 feet
long. On the same date, in latitude So or
and longitude rs %, he passed close to a
lot of floating spars, apparently attached Co
a sunken vessel. Both wrecks are directly
in the track of vessels to and from Hatteras,
and very dangerous to navigation in the
night time. The latter wreck was right in
the Delaware's track, but, being moon
light, it was discovered in time to sheer off
and clear it. Something should be done
at once to clear away the numerous wrecks
sunk or floating along about the coast in
the track of shipping.

/ ATLANTA, GA, Dec. 5.-In tho superior
court to-day the Jury found a verdict for
/ the defendant in the damage suit of the

! $1,000 damages. Meyer was John L. Con-
/ ley's bondsman when the latter took charge
\ of the POst-ApDears as cts, years ago, ana
/ the bond was enforced against him. He
/ then obtained judgment against Conlsy,
and levied on the printing material in the
/ PtOl0 Boy Office. The present suit arose
| out of the levy. 1t was claimed that the
property levied on did not belong to Con-
/ ley, but his wife, mother. brother and son.
| In addition TO the many civil suits pro
and con which have grown out
of the Rost-AppeGI matter, Conley was
convicted and sentenced for disposing Of
mortgaged property. but the supreme court
reversed the judgment. 1t was this case
which pracipitated the difficulty between
Conley and Arnold. Meyers counsel, and
| the recent assault on COnley in the FtOIO
