STORM ON THE LAKES.


 A Season of Rough Weather-Several Vessels Lost and Many Compelled 10 Seek Refuge. DETROIT, Oct. 14.-The worst storm of the season is reported from up the lakes this morning. At Oscodo many vessels had taken refuge in the harbor and were drag ging their anchors and in imminent dan ger of going ashore. At Port Arthur the wind is blowing at the rate of forty miles an hour. All materials in use in the con- struction of the breakwater were washed away and considerable portion of the structure was gone. Men working on the breakwater were rescued early this morn ing with difficulty. At Alpena the barge J. F. Warner was blown ashore and went to pieces. She was owned in Bay City and valued at 5000. The schooner M A. Gregory of Chicago went ashore in the Fish bay. It is thought she can be got of when the seas go down. An immense fleet has taken shelter in Pigeon bay, Lake Erie, from the storm.

 Oct. 14.-The funeral of Charles P Red field, aged twenty-three years, took place to-day, Rev. MT. Emerson officiating.
 Charley" as he was familiarly called by all who knew him, was graduate of Nor gan school and had for some time been in the employ of the Consolidated railroad company at Clinton as assistant and tele- graph operator. His marked courtesy was appreciated by all who had any occasion to address him at any time. Stricken with
 weeks ago with typhoid fever, for days he hung in the balance, finally passing away Sunday evening.
 In spite of the rain the funeral was
 largely attended. The floral tributes were
 beautiful. His young friends and associ- ates contributed largely of flowers as ex- pression of their friendship and as a last act in memory.
 Great sympathy is felt for the family. They have been sorely tried of late years
 mother was buried two years ago, their
 home burned last winter, and now the
 brother Frank lies ill. Hopes of his re-
 covery are entertained.
 MT. Howard Webb, of the Palladium, and wife returned to Clinton with the body of their little child on Monday. Mir. Webb was formerly resident here. On Sunday night man was arrested for creating disturbance and being intoxi- cated. Being somewhat cumulative he was bound hand and foot, and put in the town hall in charge of two men.

THE TARIFF BILL.

MajOrNIckfnIcyInt yIntervfewed-Thlnk
 There Will be a Greater Demand for
 Labor-Points Thrown out to Mer-
 chants.
 CHICAGO, Oct. 14,-Major Mckinley in an interview yesterday with reporter said that he believed that his tariff bill would increase the demand for labor ma terially The tin industry alone would employ 15, 900 and the linen industry also a large numb Der.
 The reporter suggested that his bill is said to be causing the merchants to mark up their goods.
 Presumably they are marking up goods upon which duties have been in creased, said Mr. Mckinley. "The goods bought before the bill went into effect could hardly be subject to any advance. However, if they advance the price of goods because of advanced duty and at the same time mark down the prices of goods which have been put on the free | list by the new bill, or where the duties have been diminished, it will be great boon to the consumer, for the reductions of duty far elceed the advances, The bill gives freer trade than any tariff legisla- tion that has been put upon our statute books in more than a.century. During the | every article was made dutiable. In 1894 less than 6. per cent. of our imports were free, in 1888 only 15 per cent. of our i'm. | pyrted goods were free, in 1S42 only 27 per cent. was free, in 1846, the great tariff year, only 12 per cent, in 1857 only 1e per cent, from 1873 down to 1883 30 pel cent only was free, and 1889 39 per cent was free. This bill makes about one-hali of them absolutely free"

 Mrs. Rose is but eighteen years old, and her husband is thirty-three years old. While visitor at the house of George Barrett, a tavern keeper, last February, Rose first met the girl, whowas an adopted daughter of Barrett, and they ran away and were married. They went to Wolcott to live, and Wakeley, who is the widowed husband of the sister of the plaintiff, oc- cupied cottage adjoining, and so the families became very intimate. Roses business often took him away from home, and the woman soon began to visit Wake ley's house daily.
