AFrER all there is little room for
choice between Fire Alarm FORAKER
and Icicle SHERMAN. There is at least
.gEe good point about FORAKER. He is
: hid TO favor a sound silver currency,
tbfe SHERMAN is its most pronounced
envy. To be sure, FORAKER is a.
therskite, but he would at least make
olse to show that Ohio was represent
In the United States Senate, while a
use could fll SHERNIAN's seat with
exciting suspicion.

are furnished with certain class Of boil
ers which are unable to generate steam
sufficient for the vessels to attain the speed
with which they are credited.
To make the changes necessary the ca
zette says will involve an outlay Of $780,
600. The Vulcan, the new protected tor
pedo ship, Is being changed at cost OF

Thunderer and the Devastation will be the
next vessels to have their boilers changed.

-rk1RrEEN mILLIoN vOFEs.

Az the next national election there
will be cast $4,000, 600 votes. Forty
\ four states will participate in the cleo
Ntion Of the next President, which is six
more than took part In the three pre-
ceding elections, seven more than there
were in 1876, eight more than there
were IN 1865 and 1872, and thirty more
rhan participated in the election OF
eSroReE WASHINGTON. Then there were
,',sut sixty-hve electoral votes; now there
70 IA. ''The popular vote" says the
Kew York sun, twas about 10000, 900
in 1854, about II, 4OO, 900 in 1855, and it
will probably reach 100000 votes in
1892. The total is forty times greater
than that cast at the first Presidential
election, and larger than the electorate
Of any country In ancient or modern
times. For the first time it exceeds the
total vote cast in the German empire
or in the French republic. Great Brit
aims total was passed many years
40. That Of any other European
.n5 American country whore popu-
lar suffrage is exercised shrinks
into ipsignifcance in comparison with
arr a 900, 600 votes. No more striking
ulustration Of the enormous extent Of

A WABASH WRECK.
A BIunder or Misunderstanding of Train
Orders the Cause.

Oru6rS the Nduhos
CHICAGO, January 5.-Officials OF the
Wabash road here have received intelli-
gence that two passenger trains on that
line, one going west from Toledo, the
other coming east from Kansas City,
collided this morning at Aladdin, Ills,
two miles east of Hannibal, Mo-, cauS-
ing disastrous and fatal wreck.
Engineers Wilson and Bouchard, OF
the two trains were killed, as were three
Italian immigrants who were in the
smoker. The wounded have been taken
to Moberly, Mo. The cause Of the
wreck is not known, but it is stated the
trains were running through heavy
fog at the time.
The trains were to have passed at
Aladdin. and the superstition is that the
blunder or misunderstanding Of train or
ders was responsible for tina accident.

COUNTESS TOLsToI

The Red Cross Society.


The Red Cross Society.
BERLIN, January 5.-Countess TolStoi
has written to a friend in Munich de-
scribing the famine in Russia and the
methods she adopts to relieve the starv-
ing people. She says that the only real
relieving society is the Red Cross, for
which her sons collect money to buy
grain and other necessaries, while her
daughters maker visits from house
to house and invite the destitute to the
free soup kitchens.
''The state of the people" she says,
sis miserable indeed. II is almost i'm
possible to render an account of how
donations are expended. Some Of the
people require food, while others want
clothing. 1t is difficult to record each
trifliag item"

NM NArInNAL CAsH.

The last balance sheet Of the United
States Treasury for the year 1891 shows
a continuance Of the decrease in avail
able cash resources which has been
marked feature Of the statements for q
long time.
According to Secretary FOSTERS
method Of bookkeeping, the cash
balance at this date is s34,574,12S.
A month ago it was sac. 126,917. On
the first Of September it was S6O'274'-
3e4. That is to say the resources OF the
government in money have diminished
at the rate, as near as may be stated OF
$1,000, 600 month.
Ii is understood, Of course, that the
existence Of any balance at all is mere
matter OF accounting, the last Congress
having authorized the Secretary to turn
in with his general assets the trust fund
deposited by national banks for the re-
demption of their notes. Take out this
item and there would be less than no
cash at all in the Treasury.
6 Moreover, Of the s34,574,1 2s cash on
hand reported by the Secretary, there
is much which is not on hand-namely,
SIS, 600, 900 on deposition in national
banks; and much which is not avail
able cash for paying the debts Of the
government-namely, some S14,OO0OOO
IN small and worn silver.
Making allowance for these items, 1t
is seen that the United States Treas
ury enters upon the new year with
about S., 600, 900 ready cash with which
TO meet maturing obligations.
These obligations, moreover, are ma
turing with great rapidity. About five
and a half millions of interest accrues
at once on the per cent bonds, and
some ten millions in pension payments
are to be made Immediately, or as soon
as the benefciaries ask for their
money.
Where is the cash for these payments
TO be found? Mr.. Fosters balance OF
S34, 900, OOO-S134, 900, 900 he makes it in
his statement by adding in the gold re-
serve which he cannot tOuch-looks
very well on paper, but it is unreal and
it will not pay interest or pensions. The
customs receipts are dropping off terri
bly,, and the income from internal rev.
enue is not enough to make up the dit-
ference.
By good luck Mr.. FOSTER may squeeze
through, neglecting some payments and
postponiDg others, for the present
month. But where is this to end?

To every appearance the fish belonged to
the trout family, and was judged to be a
freak in size.
One of the curious lookers-o on measured
the length of the monster and found it to
be nearly seven feet, while the greatest
breadth about the body was three and a
half feet. The scales appeared very much
like pieces of abalone shell, but were due
tile and somi-transparent, says the San
Francisco Chronicle.
BY and by tho inevitable know-all came
along, and he explained the wonder to the
clowd. Ihe sea leviathan was a species of
tue black sea bass, and by all odds the
largest of its kind ever captured on the
coast. It's weight was about 400 pounds. 1t
was captured off the Catalina islands. and
the powerful rope fastened through its
enormous mouth attested it's prodigious
strength.
II was learned that smaller specimens Of
this fish ure brought up from Santa
Barbara and sold to Wholesale dealers. The
restaurants, by q process of seasoning and
hammering out of the flesh, are enabled to
serve tho fish to their patrons under a dozen
different names.
