THE WORST STORM OF THE SEASON.

Lightning From the Wires Strikes the
Sold Democracy.

Boston, October 20.-The electric lights
and fire bells played queer pranks all the
evening. Two electric wires would come in
contact, then there would be flash from the
nearest light and in many cases the flashes
were as quick and frequent as lightning
flashes, presenting beautiful though dan
gerous spectacle. The fire alarm telegraph
wires were in some way brought in contact
and the fire bells changed pr0miscu0usly
throughout the night. The Democratic flag
opposite the headquarters on Washington
street kicked up quite fuss during the eve
ming. Its dripping folds waved wildly
through the air and finally wound tightly
around a couple of electric wires dozen feet
above where the head of the flag hung. The
winds bagged IL out and by degrees the two
wires were brought closer and closer tOgeIh-
er, and finally coming In contact with each
other blue flame shot out and looked sug-
gestlve Of unc ,nny things, as IL took hold OF
the flag and began to eat slowly toward the
portraits labelled Russell and COrc0ran.
Pretty soon there was a sharp report and
something swapping aud Kissing burst scat
tering its substance to the buildings on eth
er side of Washington street The flames
famed by the wind began to spread on the
flag, and few curious stragglers In the pro-
lection of the do0rways on Washington
street, gazed at II, and got lot OF driving
rain in.their eyes for tkeir pains. Pretty
soon however the flame diminished into
sparks and the saturated material of the flag
refused to burn longer. 1t went out and left
the names OF the Democratic candidates on
the flag so that the portraits may still be
recognized.

IMPORTANT TARIFF DECISIONS.
Assistant Secretary spauIdIng Says
Tobacco Cannot Escape Duties.
An Interesting Letter from the hav-
ana Chamber of Commerce.
Suicide of a Once Prominent officer
of the Treasury.

WASHINGTON, October 20.-Applications
have been made to the Treasury Department
by importers who had tobacco in bonded
warehouses PRIOR to the passage Of the tariff
act October /, 1890. for permission to with
draw the same in weights as ascertained at
the time Of said withdrawal. These appli-
cations are based on the second proviso of
section fifty of the tariff act, which pre-
scribed that when duties are based on the
weight Of merchandise deposited in any
public or private bonded warehouse. said
duties shall be levied and collected upon the
weight of such merchandise at the time of
its withdrawal. Assistant Secretary Spauld-
ing says. that after careful consideration of
the matter, the department is of the opinion
that such applications cannot be granted, in
asmuch as under the first prOviSO of said sec
tion the special privilege conferred upon
merchandise. which like tobacco, is subject
TO increased duties under the new tariff act,
OF allowing it withdrawn for consumption
prior to February first next, upon payment
duty at the lower rates prescribed under the
old tariff acts. Gen. Spaulding says: "Mer-
chandlse subject to an increased duty under
the new tariff act is thus entitled to with
draWal at the old rates, which are lower
than the new rates, consequently it must be
held that the withdrawal OF entries for con-
sumption of such merchandise mad eprior to
February 1st 1891, must cover the same
quantity of merchandise as to weights as II
the entries were made prior 10 that date
when the act Of October /, 1890 took effect;
in other words, the department must decide
that when an importer shall elect to with
draw merchandise under the first proviso re-
weighing at the time of withdrawal, he can
not De allowed, for tho reason that goods so
Withdrawn by virtue thereof, must be treat
ed wholly and exclusively as subject to the
provisions Of the law in force prior to the
passage of said act"

LONDON, October 20.-In a speech at New

FRENCH REPUBLIC IN CANADA.
BouIanger's Friend, Count Dillon,
Said To Be Planning One.

Ottawa, October 20.-Count Dillon's visit
to Canada is attracting more than ordinary
interest. The Patrie of Montreal declares
Dillon is here to prepare at safe distance
another Boulangist stroke. Count Dillon
himself refuses to say anything except that
he is merely exercising the rights and privi-
leges of an ordinary tourist. He is credited.
however, with saying that he is in daily
communication with the son of
Boulanger's millionaire Duchess, who found
the money to run the Boulangist machine.
Many believe that he is in Canada to agitate
among the French Canadians the establish
ment of French republic in Canada with
Boulanger at the head. Several papers pro-
fess to know that the Counts only object Is
the acquisition of land for Boulanger
and Boulangists in British Col
umbia. One paper declares he
had confab with Mereier before coming to
Ottgwa on the subject OF promoting immigra-
ti0n of Frenchmen to Quebec with special
grants Of land other inducements, and that
Mercier fell in with the project. Another
tatement is that in pursuance Of the schemes
emanating from Mgr. Grandin and the &C.
cleslastics of Quebec, and sanctioned pre-
sumably by members of the Federal Ca Dinet,
he has come over in the interest of French
colonization in the northwest

PROTECTIVE UNION.
Three Dollars a Seal or No Killing
Will Be Dene.

OTTAWA, Ont, October 2O.-New cempli-
cations have arisen in the Behring Sea busi-
ness, but they are not of an international
character. Each sealing vessel carries sew
eral boats or canoes, and to each there is one
hunter, who kills the seals with a rife.
These hunters are paid SO much for each
seal taken. The price has heretofore ruled
at $1.5O per seal. AT meeting at Victoria
the other day, the hunters formed a union
and decided to demand So a seal in the fu-
t"re. The owners of the sealiag vessels
consider this rate exorbitant and threaten to
employ new men If the demand is insisted
upon. AS the success Of a sealing trim de-
pends largely upon the hunters skill and ex-
perience, the owners are not likely to have
it all their own way.

consequence whereof the overseers at their

one opposes the change of government save
one or two members of the faculty who,
however, say they do not wish to hinder the
change If it is generally desired. But the
committee has not reported and so far as
can be ascertained no aggressive movements
have been made by them. The difficulty
seemed to lie chiefly in the fact that no one
would push the matter; the students taking

one. reading substantially as follows:
We, the students of Bates College, believing

strength is 1867. There have been organ
lied during the year 63 new lodges, making

organization embraces all states and terri
tories, Canada, ireland ana Sweden. Two
hundred and seventy-fve disability and
death claims. amounting to a total of nearly
$275, 900 were paid during the year. OF the
total claims over 200 resulted from railroad
accidents. Particular stress was laid upon
the fact that 100 deaths resulted from the
barbarous freight coupler now in use. The
cause of the remainder of the accidents is all
most entirely traeeable to the fact that the
post of duty of freight brakemen Is on the
top of the cars.
