OVERCAME LOCK.JAW.
Ono Woman Who Was Proof Against TIL
AfflictiOn.

Afiiction.
It, is general acknowledged theory
that "tetanus,' usually known as ''lock.
jaw" is fatal to those attacked. A re.
cent case which occurred at Portsmouth,
Ont, proves that there is an exception
to every rule. About six weeks ago Mrs.
Doyle, wife of Mr.. James Doyle, a
guard in the penitentiary, trod on
nail, which made nasty wound in her
foot. She dressed the wound, and short
ly it was apparently well. Ten days
after the occurrence she was attacked
by aches and pains, and had to take to
her bed At first her jaws commenced
to stiffen, and then each muscle in the
body, one by one, became rigid and use
less, the teeth clcnched firmly. She lay
on her back for many days, paralyzsl in
body, but sound in mind. Her hands,
with fingers clenched, were drawn up
over her shoulder, and every other
limb was perfectly rigid. During
the many long weary days and
nights, while she lay facing

ually she sank until she apparently ap.
peared to be debilitated past all hopes,
but when at the lowest ebb her jaws
slowly relaxed, and then one by one her
limbs and muscles resumed their normal
functions. She became enabled to take
proper nourishment, and now is on the
road to recovery She was attended by
DR.. Phelan who says that the case is o
most unusual one.

SMUGGLING at New York.

Extensive smuggling of clothing has
been detected by the Government Off
cials in New York. The stewards, cooks
and other employees of the great ocean
steamers were hired to bring over the
bundles of clothing, which were finally
carried ashore in bundles of linen for
the laundry.
The thing has been going on for q
long time. but the recent seizure OF
number of bundles of clothing and the
arrest of several of the guilty persons
will make the smugglers lie low for the
future, and all orders for smuggled
clothing will doubtless be declared OIL. ="
But how does it happen that men find
it profitable to smuggle? Have not the
protectionist politicians been telling US
all along that clothes are as cheap here
as in Europe?
There must be some mistake about
that, The smugglers are standing
proof that this is all poppycock. The
smugglers are, in their way, capital
tariff reform argument.
As a matter OF fact cloth ing cost abou!
twice as much here us in England; and
this can be proven over and over again.
But Mckinley himself gives the bost
answer to this false claim of his p,o-
lection st brethren-he raises the high
duty on clothing to still higher point
and tel us boldly in his tariff speech:

The steamer Virginia, OF the Old Bay
Line, which left Baltimore at o'clock
Monday evening for Norfolk, Va, on
her regular trip, was in collision with
the steamer Louise on her way to Balti-
more from Colchester Beach, on the
Chesapeake Bay, with fifteen hundred
excursionists. The collision occurred
at S:l1 o'clock p. M, off Fort Carol,
about five miles from Baltimore. 1t is
said the collision resulted from the efforts
of the steamers to avoid schooner in
tow Of a tugboat. The air was thick and
rainy. The Virginia struck the Louise
on the starboard side aft the wheel, cut.
ting away the outer woodwork, and
crashing into the saloon. The Virginia's
stem was badly twisted and her bow
stove. Many excursionists are missing
Three bodies have been recovered up to
II o'clock. 1t is supposed others are
lost. The steamers came to
Baltimore under their own steam. The
deaths among the excursionists number
as many as five, with a number of per-
sons injured. There were no fatalities
on the Virginia. The names of five of
the dead are known. They are: Mrs.

HUNGRY FOR BOUNTlES.

The Sugar Bounty Extended to the Maple
sugar Men, and Other Applicants For
Public Pap rut in Their Claims Now Let
the Growers of Wheat and Cotton speak
Out-McKinley Makes u Weak Defense OF
His Bounty by Mistt Quotation From
Hamilton.
Once the Government starts out to
giving bounties there will be no point
at which it can stop without leaving
many unhappy bounty-hunters grumb-
ling because they were left out in the
cold.
No sooner was it known that Mckin-
ley gave bounty of two cents a pound
on sugar than the Vermont people, who
produce small quantity of maple sugar,
beset the Senate Finace Committee and
pleaded to be Included in the bounty
clause of the bill. -
OF course they could bring fouo| Z
very strong arguments. why make a
discrimination against our maple sugar?
Is it not sugar, too, just as we'll as cane
or beet-root sugar? Does it not grow
out of the ground-and American
ground at that? Does it not require
labor-American labor? Why not put
all Amer can sugar on the same footing?"
Well, the Senate committee said that
the maple sugar men had the better of
the argument, and so maple sugar goes
into the bill for the two-cent bounty on
every pound produced. Thus the makers
of maple sugar, as we'll as the growers of
cane and beet-root sugar are to be paid
to do their own business-paid out of
taxes collected from the people.
AS the Senate committee showed itself
to be so generous to the maple sugar
men other bounty-hunters have come
forward to ask an extension of Govern
ment charity. This time it is the
makers of grape sugar and glucose,
which are largely used to adulterate
other products, They have also an
American article, employ American la
Dor, and make a sugar too. Why should
they be left out? They are Just as
thirsty for Government aid as any of the
other sugar makers, Now let us see
whether the Senate committee can give
any good reason for not taking the grape
sugar and glucose men in out of the
cold?
II Mckinley and his tariif-makers
were asked why it is necessary to give
a bounty on sugar they would tai !
about our sugar-growers not being able
to compete with the cheap labor Of the
West Indies, South America and Ger
many; and they would give you care
fully constructed tables showing the
wages of farm laborers in those coun
tries. OF course, they will say, oul
sugar-growers can not compete with the
cheap labor, and therefore we must hell
them in the unequal struggle by giving
them bounty.
But does not Mckinley see that II tn,
cheap-labor argument is to be used t,
defend his sugar bounty, the same ar
gunent would apply equally we'll to tn,
growers of wheat and cotton? TIL,
growers Of American wheat are com
PEELED 10 sell lheir crop in com mpe u ito,
with the cheap labor OF Russil
and India; and the American cot
ton-growers must meet on th,
wharves of Liverpool the cottoI
produced by the mlserably paid labor o
India and Egypt How can they do thi
without bounty? Are not the whea
and cotton gro vers good and worth.

American citizens? Do they not give
A. A IoIonO

American citizens? Do they not give
employment to American labor?
When Mr. Mckinley brought his Tar
if bill into the House he accompanied
it with a report in which he attempted
to bolster up his sugar bounty by quot.
ing Alexander Hamilton, and saying
that ''the sanction OF no higher author
ity in American craftsmanship could be
invoked"
Then he makes quotation from
Hamilton in defense Of bounties; but
the quotation itself shows in plain
black and white that Hamilton was ad.
vocating bounties ito stimulate and up
hold new ENTERPRISES they were to be
applied ito the acquisition of new and
useful branch of industry" and Hamil-
tons bounty was to be "a temporary ex-
pense."
Seldom has public man ever quoted
an authority SO inaptly as Mckinley
did in this case; for sugar-growing is
not "a new industry" under the most
liberal Interpretation Of Hamilton's
words; and to speak of the '.acquisi-
ton" of it Is simply gross misuse Of
the English language. Again, Hamil-
ton speaks Of a temporary" expense
for the establishment Of an industry.
What right has Mckinley to assume
that at the end of his fifteen years
bounty the sugar-growing industry will
be any more able to stand on its own
feet than it is to-day? 1t has already
existed long enough to develop the nec-
essary skill; and it is folly to hope that
the bounty will have the slightest eff
feet in developing greater degree of
skill in our sugar-making process, or
that this greater skill will be added as
permanent factor to the wealth-pro-
ducing capacity of the Nation.
AS the matter stands Mckinley gives
/ the sugar men 81 900, 900 year out OF
the peoples taxes: but how much that
will grow to in fifteen years nobody
knows. 1t may be twice as much or ii
may be ten times as much. But II the
sum should even remain the same, that
would mean s105, 000 900 for the fifteen
years-which is certainly an enormous
sum to pay people for doing their own
private business.
Mckinley, however, is a champion
when it comes to knocking out surplus.
But he sees that the people are going to
object to giving away this enormous
sum of money; and so he fixes the dona-
ton for period of fifteen years, hoping
that thereby future Congresses can not
undo his iniquitous bounty giving.

MKINLEYS HAND FELT.
Effect of the High Tariff Bill Already Felt
in the New York Dry Goods Market.

IN tne new 1Ork DFy Ooous
The pretense is sometimes made by
protectionists that the tariff does not
increase the cost of goods. How false
that claim is may be judged from the
following fact. The New York Com
mercial Bulletin in recent market re-
port has these words on the conditions
now prevailing in that city among the
importers of foreign dry goods: SIM
porters, confident of the passage of the
Mckinley Tariff bill, are firm in their
insistance for advanced prices. Buyers,
on the other hand, refuse to do business
save at old prices, tariff change or no
tariff change, and there the matter
stands to-day as for some weeks past.
Importers are massing large supplies in
warehouse in anticipation of the pro-
posed tariff"
This is clear case of cause and effect.
If Tariff bill is to pass putting in
creased duties on goods, these duties
will raise the price by precisely so much
to the American sugar Not only so,
but, as this market report shows, the
price of the goods already on hand will
be raised; for in order to replace them
it will be necessary to import others at
a cost enhanced by the amount of the
new duties
Buyers, however have become accus-
toned to the old prices; the new Mckin-
ley prices frighten them, and so they
hold off in the vain hope that the Nc
Kinley bill will not become law. Tho
buyers are not of that silly class of peo-
pie who pretend that the tariff does not
increase prices. They know that when
the importer has paid the high duty at
the custom house he is compelled to add
that duty to the price of the goods; and
they know too, that when they them
selves buy these goods and take them
home to their stores, they will have to
charge up the duty so that the consumer
will pay it finally They know further
that when the cost of these goods has
been increased by Mckinley, some peo-
pie will do without them rather thar
pay the higher price, ,.,The merchants
IL, Alarge sales at low profits rather
ulss> w shall sales at high profits; but tho
yaeRinley bill means precisely the lat
ter of these alternatives. Merchants
will sell fewer foreign goods, and for
this very reason they will have to make
higher profit on what they do sell.
This state of affairs leaves the mer-
chants in uncertainty and hence they
hold off in the hope that Mex nley's
barbarous measure will not become law.
This market report is simply thing
that has been published in the ordinary
course of business; but it should throw
food of light on the effect of tariffs
among people who have been beguiled
with the false teaching of the politicians
\ that the tariff is not a tax.
