The consul at Guaymas gives some
interesting facts concerning orange
growing there. He says that there
are but few oranges grown, orchards
dating from 80, when the Sonora rail-
road was opened. First trees brought
from Italy by Jesuit fathers ninety
years ago and planted a: San Jose de
Guaymas and Hermosillo, were only
cultivated for home consumption. In
'ss,l4,O0O boxes, averaging 200 oranges
each, were shipped to the United
States. Oranges begin to bear third
year after budding.

PAcIFYING AN INEeRIATE.
PoIitsness Was the Only Method by which
He Could BE Reached.

He Could BE Reached.
This is what happened, according to
the New York sun, on a Nostrand ave
nue. horse-car in Brooklyn few nights
ago: An inebriated gentleman had
affixed himself TO the rear platform and
was taking up the whole Of it, swaying
and humping from side 70 side, threat
ening al times 20 tumble of, and ap-
pearing at other times TO contemplate
full length launch down the aisle.
When few Of the passengers had got
of, the conductor took this passenger
by the arm and said: There's room for
you now. Go in and sit down"
.sI'll not go in and sit down"
you are IN everybOdy's way on the
platform"
"I'll shtay on the platform"
You'll either sit down or get off,
''I'II nayther do the wan nor the
other"
IN see about that" And stopping
the car the conductor summoned the
driver, and both of them undertook the
ejectment Of their obstreperous passen-
ger. He was a big fellow, and their
attack sobered him little, for no sooner
would they detach one Of his hands
from the rail than he wonld clutch it
with the other. The scufhing and the
talk frightened the women and children
in the car, and every few moments the
intoxicated party would remark: when
buffers says they're goin' 70 pit me of
like to see thin do il. Gwan now.
Chuck me off,"
AT last, in disgust and despair, the
conductor gave up the attempt. and,
sending the driver forward, the journey
was resumed. When the car was under
way the unfortunate said 70 the con-
ductor: ''Ay you had threated me like
a gintleman and axed me 70 git of, I'd

Urges Early Consideration.
WASHINGTON, April 23.-At the Repub-
lican caucus tonight the Silver bill, as
given elsewhere in these dispatches, was
adopted with but few dissenting votes.
The objecting members are opposing the
bill because of its failure to have the
full legal tender quality of the treasury
notes specified. In addition to the pro-
visions of the bill already stated, it is
provided that the money now held in
the treasury to redeem the national
bank circulation in the case of liquidat-
ing banks, banks reducing circulation,
etc., is to be covered into the treasury.
This fund, estimated to be about $751;
100000, will be restored to the circula-
ton.
1t is also provided by the bill that the
treasury notes shall be receivable for
customs, taxes and all public dues, and
when so received may be reissued ; and
such notes, when held by any national
banking association, may be counted as
a part of its lawful reserve
The committee on rules will report a
resolution requiring the consideration of
the bill by the House at the earliest
possible moment, with a strict limita-
ton on the length of the debate.
The caucus indorsed the Morrill, Ser
vice Pension bill.
Lodge explained his National Election
bill, but Chairman Rowell, of the cleo
ton committee, did not think it neces-
sary to pass such law, and submitted
plan for wide extension of the pres
ent supervisory system. The matter
will come up again next Tuesday night.

TANAwANDA, N. Y, April 23.--Fire
was discovered in the yard of the Tana-
wanda Lumber Company last night.
At midnight another fire broke out in
the yards of A. M. Dodge q Co., in an
other quarter of the town. Both were
subdued after hard fight. Considera-
BILE excitement was caused by the dis
covery that the wires of the fire-alarm
system had been cut in several places.
The general opinion is that there was
deliberate plot to burn the town.

LABOR CRUSADES.
NO CHANGE IN THE CARPENTERS
STRIKE AT CHICAGO.
Fifteen Thousand Packing House EN-
ployees Expected to GO Out May lst
if the Eight-Hour Day Is Not Conceded.

CHICAGO, April 23.-There was no
change in the carpenters orike today,
and the prospect of any compromise is
still very gloomy. d. p. Roland, presi-
dent of the National Brotherhood of
Carpenters and Joiners, arrived in Chi
cago yesterday and is encouraging the
strikers to stand firm.
The women coat and vest-makers
threaten to strike for eight hours.
The striking brick-makers are return
ing to work.
One of the labor leaders at the stock
yards said today that he confidently ex-
poets a strike of fifteen thousand pack
ing house employees May LIST for the
eight-hour day. The butchers and
coopers are thoroughly organized and
will work together in enforcing the
eight-hour day for other employees. He
asserted that the butchers and coopers
are well prepared financially for a strike,
and said further that the men believe
that Fairbanks & Co., and Fowler Bros,
will concede eight hours without a
struggle. These firms employ about
three thousand men.
New YORK, April 23.-No strike has
yet occurred ON the New York Central
The officials deny that there is any
foundation for the rumors of probable
strike.
OMAHA, April 23.-Two hundred men
employed by the East Omaha Land
Company in grading near Cut-Off island,
struck today for an increase of wages
from $3.50 to $1.75 per day.
PIrrsBURG, April 23.-The men pre-
sented final proposition to the railroads
today, and met with refusal. The mat
ter now lies in the hands of the supreme
council of the federations. These mem
bers will decide whether strike shall
be ordered or the terms of the railroads
be accepted.
PORTLAND, Ore, April 23.-By request
OF the builders and striking mechanics,
the Chamber of Commerce held special
meeting this afternoon and appointed a
committee of three to endeavor to bring

BAYOU SARA, La, April 23.-Another
break occurred last night in the Pointe
Coupee levee. The indications are that
the entire Pointe Coupee front will be
submerged. The wateris pouring through
the crevasses at Morganza and vicinity,
and will overflow the greater portion of
the country between the Atchafalaga
and the Mississippi rivers, extending
from Old river above to Bayou Lafourche
below, embracing 700 square miles. No
news has been received from the in
terror of Pointe Coupee parish, but relief
boats are taking care of all those who
reached the levees. AS the critical con-
dition of the levees has been known for
some weeks, the hope is entertained
that all have in measure prepared for
the worst, and that no loss Of life will
result from the breaks along the front.
New ORLEANS, April 23.-In this city
today the lake water encroached some
what again north of Claiborne street,
and some trouble was experienced BY
the water from the canal flowing over
the banks of the old basin. No serious
damage has been done yet.
A Times Democrat Bayou Sara special
says: Seven crevasses are reported to-
day between this place and Waterloo.
This makes nine on the Pointe Coupee
front. The devastation in that and the
southwestern parishes will be terrible.
The rains continue. Last night it poured
down in torrents, causing freshet in
the bayou and a rise of five inches in
town. This additional rise caused more
danger to the goods in the stores. The
opening of the crevasses, however, let
considerable water out this evening, and
it fell twelve inches in town. The rail
road trestle has been washed away, and
the only communication with the main
line now is by boat.
News of additional crevasses near
Baton Rouge and Bayou Sara lead to the
belief here that the disaster to the sugar
belt will equal that of 1874, when nine
parishes were inundated, unless the
water recedes quickly.
PLAoUEMINE, La, April 23.-Rain
came down in torrents last night, and
for the twenty-four hours ending this
morning sir inches of water fell. The
town is filled with people from the
country, some bringing in their families
and cattle, and others seeking material
to fight the floods. Most of the planters
base their calculations on the flood of
'S2, but the water is already higher than
that now
NAToHEz, Miss, April 23.-The levee
below Vidalia broke last night, and the
water has flooded the low lands and rail-
roads, and is backing up toward town.
Houston, Tex, April 23.-A continu-
GUS rain has fallen all over Texas for
three days past. The rivers and bayous
in many places are over banks, bridges
have been swept away, and travel is de-
layed. A great deal of stock in the low
lands has been drowned, but no loss of
Life is renOrted

Better Luck Than His Pal.

SAN Francisco, April 23. Judge
Murphy has dismissed the charge of
forgery pending against John Wiley,
owing to the insufficiency of evidence to
secure conviction. Wiley was Jointly
accused with Herbert Lathrop of having
forged Southern Pacific railroad tickets
good for passage from this city to Los
Angeles. Lathrop pleaded guilty to the
charge, and on Saturday last was sem
fenced to eight years imprisonment at
Folsom.

Editor Rosewater,s Case.

OMAHA, April 23.-E. Rosewater, ed
itor OF the Omaha Bee, was placed on
trial today at Tekamah, Neb., on the
charge of disturbing religious meeting.
Last fall he appeared at the above
place where an audience had as
sembled to listen to temper
ance lecture by Mrs. Cougar, and
asked that he might be heard in order
to refute some ISLANDERS which, he as
serted, Mrs. Cougar had publicly made
against him. Mrs. Cougar denied him
the. privilege, and caused his arrest for
disturbing a religious meeting. After
the examination of four witnesses, to-
day, the case was dismissed by the pros
ecuting attorney.

CANADIAN PIRATES.
EXPLOITING ON AMERICAN COM
MERGE IN A HIGH-HANDED WAY.
American Vessels Disseminated Against
in the Matter of Canal Tolls-The
Treaty of Washington Violated.

WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator Gull
lom has concluded his report upon the
investigation made by the committee on
interstate commerce into the relations of
the railroads of the United States and
Canada, and also whether there is any
discrimination in the charges made for
tolls against United States vessels pass
ing through the Welland and St. Law
renee canals. The report asserts that
unjust discrimination is made by Canada
against American vessels on the
lakes in the matter of entrance
and clearance fees. Vessels passing
through the Welland canal bound to
Montreal, have rebate made of por-
ton of the tolls paid for the canal
passage, but if bound to any American
port or to the st. Lawrence river no re-
bate is made. This, the report claims,
is a violation of the provisions of the
treaty of Washington.
In conclusion, the report says: "Thus
it is that by attacking the narrow mar
gins OF profit in the transportation bust
ness here and there, our competitor at
the north has been exploiting upon
American commerce for many years
1t is doing that very thing today in a
more high-handed and exultant
way than ever before. All that
is necessary for the Government
of Great Britain or Canada to do,
is to throw sufficient advantage in favor
of British steamers, Canadian fishing
vessels and Canadian railroads, to turn
our commerce from the American ocean
steamers, American fishing vessels,
American railroads and American sea-
ports. This is being done, not only by
subvention, but also by enabling statut-
ory provisions which go in the face OF
the Interstate Commerce act OF the
United States.''

Has Women Tired of the Ballot ?

Very sad news comes from Leaven-
worth, Kansas. 1t appears that lovely
woman has tired of that bauble, the
ballot, and after few trials at the game
of politics, has thrown up the sponge
in other words, ceased to vote. The
dear creatures, who have it pretty much
all their own way in Kansas, were among
the first OF their sex to be given the
privilege of casting ballots, and now see
how quickly they have wearied of
their privilege! 1t is melancholy that
history should be forced to record
such feminine fickleness as the recent
elections in that State have chronicled
in black and white. An uncharitable
and cynical he-world will be certain to
make their changes of political senti-
ment handle to lift public opinion in
an opposite direction from what it has
been tending of late. Women suffragists
throughout the East take gloomy view
OF the Kansas. situation, but they lie
low, like Bre' Rabbit, hoping good may
yet come out Of evil. Il Boston Herald
