given here for years and the novelty of

The Hall was crowded with maskers and
spectators, and about fifty maskers took
part in the grand march. The antics
and didos OF good many of the mask

fun which was greatly enjoyed by the
spectators. The Imaskers unmarked

Collapse Of the New York Dry Goods
Firm Of Plummer 4 Co,

The dry goods trade was startled yesterday
when the announcement was made that the
well-known house of j. +. Plummer 4 Co. had
made an assignment to jeremiah P. Murphy,
the cashier and book keeper, and giving a pref
erence OF $4,000 to Evarts. Choate 4 Beaman.
The amount of the liabilities are stated to be
Sl,OOO,OOO. What the assets are no one seems
to be able to tell Mr.. Murphy SAYS that the
assets will be about the same amount n0minally,
but what they Will realize can only be told
whvh the schedules are made out.
The firm is composed of John F. Plummer.
Albert I. Plummer and VIM. s. Darling and
dld business of over 5000, 900 year. The
nrm Is one OF the largest commission houses in
the business and has been in existence many
years. 1t was started in 1856 at Church and
Leonard streets by W. L. Pomeroy. In 1866
Mr.. Plummer became member of the firm.
Later the firm became Pomeroy & Plummer
mills represented by the firm the New
England, Hockanum, the Springville, Dawson
and the North Adams. The satinet mills are
another branch of the firm and are said to be
controlled by Plummer 4 Strong.
Mr.. Murphy said that it was through carry
ing too much satinet stock and the unfavorable
winter for heavy goods that had caused the
failure. He denied that Mr.. Plummer's polit-
ical aspirations had anything to do with it. In
the register Office yesterday mortgages to men,
bers OF Plummers family were recorded by him
to the extent of $4,000. The mills mentioned
and probably the Chemical and the Central
national banks are said to be the heaviest
creditors

From the Evening Wisconsin.
Daniel W. Voorhees,, the Indiana Demos
themes, was one time addressing his constitu-
ents in Vigo county on the evils of prohibtory
legislation and the impoverishing effects of the
proposed restrictive regulations advocated by
the republican party. He called those meas.
ures ''sumptuary laws" and in a burst of elo-
quence exclaimed: what, my friends and
neighbors. what, say, will you do with your
corn if the republican party closes up your
distilleries?" He paused moment for a reply
when gray-headei, unkempt granger arose
and said: "Dsn'l, do you want me to answer
that question: Il do" said Daniel. Raise
more hogs and less hell" said the farmer, and
then he sat down. Daniel felt like doing the
same.

An Abundant Rice Crop Promised.

The reports which are being received from
various parts of the rice bel. of South Carolina
indicate that the planters are farther ahead
with their crops than ever before. The fair
weather which has prevailed during almost the
entire winter has given them ample oppor-
tunity for getting the crop planted and they
have taken advantage of it everywhere. The
prospect for the crop of 1890 is very encourage
ing and the indications are that it will be one
OF the largest made in many years.
