Snow Storms in Europe.

cablegram from Paris, France, says:
The weather is colder than at any time dur
ing the present winter. The suferings OF
the poor and destitute are intense. The
snow encumbers the streets and causes a
suspension of traffic. The tramways have
ceased operations, and nearly all the omni-
buses have stopped running.
Central France and Germany are covered
with snow to a depth that has brought rail-
way traffic to stand. Southwest of this
city five trains are buried in the drifts near
Chatres.
Railway communication with Mannheim.
Augsburg, Metz and other eastern centres is
stopped, trains being either stalled on the
way or afraid to start out.

a thaw the usual routes will be dangerous

MAMMOTH FAIR HALLS.
Getting Ready for the Biggest Barn
Raising in History.

The contractors who are putting up the big
steel trusses for the roof of the Marufac
lures Building of the Worlds Fair. Chicago,
are getting ready for the biggest Charm
raising in history. There are twenty-seven
main trusses, with a span of $50 feet
and a height of 21l feet. They are
fourteen feet wide at the floor and ten at the
apex. These trusses with the eight smaller
gable trusses weigh 10, S0O,O 900 pounds The
main trusses weigh about $50 coo pounds
each, and they are to be raised in position
from the floor. To handle these great iron
structures traveller" is being constructed
on the floor of the building, fifty feet by 26O
feet and 100 feet high. On top of this
traveller will be raised central tower 135
feet high, SO that the total height OF this
great lifting arrangement is 255. It will
weigh 720, 900 pounds. and over half million
feet of lumber will be used in its construc-
ton. The floor of the building will not, of
course, bear this great weight and the
traveller" will move on a track specially
prepared for it. As much as is necessary Of
the floor will be torn up and three rows of
piles will be driven to support the traveller"
When the work of raising the trusses is
finished, this piling will be sawed off and the
floor relaid. Another big ''traveler' is being
rugged on the floor of Machinery Hall to erect
the iron work in that strucure-a task
scarcely less difficult.

All the members of the French Ministry
have rendered their designations to Presi-
dent Carnot.
The cause of this was the action of the
Chamber of Deputies in connection with the
bill dealing with associations. M. Hubbard
demanded urgency for the bill as reply TO
the attitude of the French Bishops. NJ. de
Cassagnac described the bill as an iniquit-
Gus measure.
Premier de Freycinet denied that the
measure was intended as an act of pre-
caution of the Church, or that it need be
regarded as precursor of the separation OF
Church and State. He warmly com"
mended the conciliatory spirit of the Pope,
who, he said, often gave evidence of sympa-
thetic sentiments toward France. He con.
tinued: I'VE shall doubtless be called upon
some day to treat with the Vatican on the
religious question. A portion of the
clergy may possibly refuse to enter upon the
path pointed out to them. but universal
suffrage will judge between the two policies"
In conclusion, M. de Freycinet gave his
assent to the demand for the urgency, though
he said that would not give the measure the
significance that M. Hubbard desired.
An excited discussion ensued on M. Hub
bard's motion. Finally M. de Freycinet
again demanded that an order of the day
be moved, indicating, the views of
the Chamber on the subject. In
accordance WIFI Inc IF0nleTS u0-
mand, Boisserin moved that the Govern
ment be requested to continue its republican
policy. M de Freycinet accepted the mo-
ton and intimated that he considered 1t
Cabinet question.
The vote Of the Chamber being taken, M.
Boisserins motion was rejected by 3O4 to
2G2. The Ministers, recognizing their de-
feat, Immediately lett the House in body.
The Chamber then rejected the urgency
motion by a vote of $50 to 246.
The Bark Tamerlane Wrecked.
The bark Tamerlane, which was wrecked
off the the Rocks of Puma, Hawaii, a few
mornings ago, cleared from San Francisco
with crew of thirty-six men. The voyage
down was satisfactory, but it appears that
the vessel lost her reckoning the officers
thinking her at the time Of the wreck to be
near Kalakeakua Bay, almost two degrees
to the westward. No breakers were
sighted when the vessel struck
and the sudden shock threw the
crew into great confusion. Only two
small boats were available, and one OF them,
when lowered, foated away, before it Sc
cured an occupant. Captain Rowland, the
first mate OF the boat, the carpen ter, the
boat, but the ship was rolling heavily and
it was stove in and the occupants
were washed away. Those of the crew who
remained on the bark were picked off by the
waves one by one until the vessel broke up.
Eighteen men, including Third Officer Par
dee, managed to reach the shore with the aid
of d plank The others, seventeen in all,
were all drowned.
The Tamerlane was built in Wiscassette
