COTTON CARGOEs.

The Savannah NelcS disputes The as
sertion recently made in the British
House of Lords TO the effect that cotton
fires are much more frequent in Ameri-
can than in Indian cargoeS, the reason
being that the former are carelessly
handled aud packed The Nelcs cannot
dispute the frequency Of such fires, but
il points out that a large number Of the
ships which carry cotton are loaded at
New York or Boston, implying that the
trouble may lie in the manner OF its
handling at these ports. AT Southern
points, il contends, there is no careless
ness, and adds:
On the contrary, the greatest care is ex-
ercised. Those engaged in loading cotton
are not permitted TO smoke cigars or pipes
while ri work. They are not even allowed
~ carry matches, and smoking on the
yvbarves where there is cotton is strictly
nrohibited. Instead of carelessness, every
nrecaution against fire is taken, and insur
ance cOmpanies make IL point 70 see thai
the regulations for protection against hr'
are enforced.
1t is gratifying to obtain this testi
mony from a witness on the spot, ever
though it be a witness obviously favora
BILE to the defense. Asamatter OF fact
the theory that it is careless handling
which causes the frequent fires in cot
ton cargoes is largely one Of pure as
sumption. There seems to be almost NJ
positive evidence Of any sort upon thi
important subject, which is all the NOR
reason why every intelligent inquiry in
TO it should be welcomed. Even reg
ulation forbidding the carrying Of cot
ton by passenger vessels would, though
it ought to be adopted, simply diminisI
the risks to human life-not by an
means settle the problem.

THE WHEAT CROP.

Reports Of the movements Of the
new wheat crop from Kansas are to the
effect that but little Of IT is coming East
as vet. and the Alliance leaders are
ouick to claim this as a realization of
their hopes Of the effect Of the appeal to
the farmers to hold their grain and cor
ner the market. On the other hand,
dealers assert that the wheat is still in
the stack. drying.
1t will be a curious result, indeed, IL
the Alliance circular were to influence
any considerable number Of farmers to
hold back their crops TO an extent that
should make itself apparent in ship
ments. But the scheme is one that
must soon meet a severe test in that
case. Kansas forms only small part
of the entire wheat-producing territory
Of the West; and If food Of grain from
the other Western sections is let loose
and comes upon them with their hoard
ed crops, there is reasonable certainty
that prices would break in a way Il
leave them worse of than before.

The CahepslY Scheme.

ROME, August 3.-The recent inter-
view between President Harrison and
Cardinal Gibbons created interest as an
indication of the Importance attached
in America to the Catholic question.
The Pope, Cardinal Simeoni and chiefs
of the propaganda have been much i'm
pressed with the declarations Of the
President. The tributes Of the Ameri-
can press to the wisdom of the Pope's
decision are also greatly appreciated.
The Holy See sincerely regrets that the
friends Of Mr.. Cahensly have spread a
report that Rome placed no obstacles in
the way of his scheme.
From the first the propaganda declar-
ed to Mr.. Cahensly that the Holy See
would never accede to the demands for
national bishops. Cardinal Simeoni and
Monsignor Persico both assert that the
Cahensly scheme will never be accepted
by the propaganda.

Eight Hour Day at Omaha.

OMAHA, NEB., August 3.-There has
been no fresh trouble at the Omaha and
Grant smelters so far to-day. The police
guarded the works all night, but there
was no attempt at violence. When the
hour for the day shift to go on duty ar
rived, about 400 men gathered at the
entrance, but nobody went to work ex-
cept half dozen men, who put in the
morning emptying furnaces. AS soon
as this was completed the smelters were
closed, and not man of the $50 men
was at work. A number of manufac-
turers have dubbed together and will
test the eight hour law in the courts.
A number OF bricklayers went out for
eight hours.

MInister Burned to peath.

PALMER. MASS, August 3.-The
Weeks House on South Main street, an
old land mark well known to travellers,
was discovered on fire at about two
o'clock this morning. The flames
spread with great rapidity and In a
short time enveloped almost the entire
structure, which is three-story one OF
wood. There were about thirty-five
guests and boarders In the house and
they had barely time to escape in their
night clothing. Rev. Mr.. Williams, a
Congregational minister who had been
boarding about mon tn at the house,
was burned to death. His body was
found burned beyond recognition, moth
ing but the charred trunk remaining.
The guests lost all their effects. The
loss will be about 100000. The hotel
was insured for $4,000 and the furni-
ture for $1,000.

English Comment ON Brumfield Tragedy

LONDON, August 3.--The Globe this
afternoon publishes dispatches detail
ing the murder of Mr.. and Mrs. Brum-
field and their five children, in West
Virginia, on Friday last, by crowd of
drunken Italian laborers, and in an edi-
torial commenting on the crime, says:
, The ss mnrderers in this case will UNI
people of West Virginia, and it will
then be seen if Italy will demand a
Federal inquiry with view to pro-
curing compensation. If Italy should
do so the answer that Will be made to
her demand will perhaps be shorter and
sharper than the one previously made
by the United States Government in re-
piv to Italy's demand for compensation
for the families of the Italians lynched
at New Orleans. That country which
cannot deal efficiently with its own muir
derers must not object to any sort OF law
that does the work for it,"

SEVERAL ARRESTS
Growing Out of Beer-Drinking and Dis
order in East Wheeling.

Growing Out OF Beer-DrinkinS anu LIB
order in East Wheeling.
Last evening the case OF assault and
battery, preferred by Nick Halpin
against Police Officer Scally, was heard
before Justice Gillespy, and the matter,
at the conclusion Of the evidence, was
taken under advisement by the Justice
until to-day.
There was very large crowd OF SYM
pathisers with HaIpin present, and at
the conclusion of the evidence the en-
tire audience, including the principals,
adjourned to Justice Davis Office where
a warrant had been sworn out by the
officer against Halpin for abusive Ian
guage. Captain B. B. Devener repre-
sented the defendant, and the case was
dismissed, the Justice holding that
under the statute, a second arrest, on q
State warrant, could not follow where
there had been q previous case under
the city ordinance for practically the
same thing. When the decision Of the
Justice was announced, there was a
round of applause from the friends Of
Halpin.
This trouble arose from arrests made
by the police before daylight last Satur-
day morning, at the east end OF Four
teenth street. 1t has been the custom
of lot of young men to procure kegs
of beer and loaf about the vicinity of
the board walk at the east end of Four
teenth street, making big noise and
disturbing residents of the vicinity.
On the night named complaint was sent
to the City Hall by people who could
not get to sleep for the noisy and pro.
fame racket made by the beer drinkers,
and two officers, one OF whom was
Scally, were sent out. The gang were
moved away from the board walk where
they were drinking, and were advised
TO 60 home by the officers. This they
did not do, but went few yards up the
side of the hill and continued the row
After while the police went back, anC
Scally kicked the beer keg over the hill
One of the party told the officer he
"had his gall" with him, and there were
some words the reverse of compliment
tary showered upon the officers, which
resulted in two Of the crowd being
arrested. After they had beer
taken down onto the street, Tut
men said they would go home, II re
leased, and the officers let them go
Later, Halpin and a youth named Bal
started in to abuse the officers, and wer,
arrested. They were taken to the Office
of the Central Glass Works, where the
patrol wagon wagon was sent for, anC
while there Halpin abused the officer II
an outrageous manner, threatened Il
click" him, said he would get even will
him If he had to kill him, etc. The off
Ger attempted to quiet him, but failed
and hit him with his fist and also will
his club. In Police Court some OF tn,
witnesses weakened on the statement
they had previously made, and the dis
orderly charge had TO be dismissed, bu
Halpin was fined ten dollars and cost
for abusing the officer.
This locality has been q great loafin,
place for gangs of tough young men, ant
it is to be hoped the police will thor
oughly break up the practice.

which he had long been a sufferer. He
has been at the point Of death many

ONE SOLUTION OF THE WATER DIFF
FIOULTY.

The investigation of the Ohio State
Board of Health into the water supplies
furnished by the Ohio river will be Of
/ great interest to Wheeling, which Is
just now agitated over the same subject.
The first report, which will be found
elsewhere, regarding Cincinnati's water
shows that, in all probability, il that
city is drinking impure water the i'm
purity is due to her own sewage, that
the water above the city is pure enough,
and that the city's supply would be all
right if she would simply keep her own
dirt out Of it-take it from the river
above her own sources of pollution.
Will not this apply with equal force
and reason to Wheeling? There are
no towns or cities above Wheeling
which pollute the water flowing past
Wheeling, till we come to Wellsburg,
sixteen miles above. A running stream
should nearly or quite purify itself in
that distance, especially Of the small
amount Of sewage emptied into it from
town the size of Wellsburg. Cincinnati
is situated similarly to Wheeling in this
respect, and the committee Of investi-
cation believe that if the city go above
its own sewers for its water it would
have pure supply for ages to come.
Would not this be equally true Of
WheelingV
While we are discussing the matter
and considering gigantic and costly
schemes Of one kind and another to get
pure water, why not in the mean
time take the practical and SIM
pie course of first getting rid
of our own sources Of pollution, of which
there are many directly above the
water works, and almost at the mouth
of the supply pipe? For comparatively
small cost main sewer could be built
to carry all the sewage, including the
surface drainage, of North Wheeling TO
a point below the water works. This
plan would be even better than
moving the water works above the city,
or running the supply pipe to that
point. 1t would also be much cheaper.
Let us try it. IL is the most immedi-
ately practicable and cheapest plan,
and certainly we ought not to be
drinking our own sewage, anyhow, for
a longer space of time than it will take |
to build a main sewer to carry it below
the water works supply-pipe. Then, if |
our water is shown still to be too i'm
pure, we can turn our attention to other
schemes for still further purifying it,
