Winona Republican: Senator Dav-
is is the recipient of much commenda-
ton for his strong presentation, the
other day, of the claims of the Sault
Ste Marie canal and river for a Con-
gressional appropriation large enough
to make that important waterway
equal to the rapidly growing commerce
of Lake Superior and the wants of the
country dependent upon it. To most
of his Senatorial listeners, as to the
country at large, the facts cited by
Mr.. Davis in support of his argument
were almost incredible in their scope
and magnitude. The history of the
world does not furnish parallel to
the rapid growth of tonnage that pass
es through the canal connecting SUI
perior with the lower lakes. Not the
famous and costly Suez canal, which
accommodates the commerce of three
continents, begins to compare in the
extent of its operations with that of
the St. Marie at the present time, and
how much greater the superiority of
the latter will be at the close of the
decade upon which we are now enter
ing the mind of man can scarcely con-
ceive.

the capture. In the same number of

lating TO liquors imported into prohibit
. tory states taken up and considered, but
he was forced TO yield TO the prior claim
of the silver bill, which was taken up
and on which Mr.. Stewart proceeded to
address the senate. Mr.. Wilson OF Iowa
gave notice of an amendment providing
that the treasury notes TO be issued for
silver shall be legal tender for all pri-
vate debts within the United States.
Mr.. Farwell gave notice of an amend
ment of the same nature. The silver
bill was then laid aside and the bill re-
lating to liquor imported into pro-
hibitory states taken up. In the
house the tariff bill was considered.
A number OF amendments We're offered,
some OF which we're adopted and others
rejected. An amendment imposing u

manufactures of silk, not specially pro-

camels, goats, or other like animals, is

as manufactures of wool, was agreed
to-yeas, 1876; nays, lag. The vinegar
amendment adopted in committee of the

ST. PETERSBURG, May 10. Horrible
scenes are reported during tho burning
of Tomsk, capital of western Siberia.
The place was visited simultaneously
by conflagration and cyclone, the re-
suit of the combined disasters being the
destruction of three-quarters of the
buildings, which were of wood, and the
loss of hundreds of lives. The cathedral,
situated in the high town, is in ashes.
The walls of the edifce in falling
crushed an adjacent hospital, burying
the inmates who were subsequently
roasted TO death. The garrison brutality
refused TO render the least assistance in
saving lives and property on the plea
that they had enough to do to protect
the barracks and other government
buildings. They said they had no time
to assist worthless exiles" The city
was soon covered by mantle of snow,
and there was sudden fall in the tenn
perature, which added to the sufferlngs
of the thousands of shelterless men,
women and children
