to multiply himself until be discovered
that there were too many retinerles and
that the capacity for refining sugar was
greater than could be prof ably employed.
Then the war Of the survival Of the fttest
began, and those with the least money to
lose or possessing the least skill fell out Of
the contest; but even after this wedding
out process had gone on for while there
were still TOO many refners and the surviv-
ors we're still cutting each others threats.
Here halt was called and q consultation
was had, resulting In the formation OF the
celebrated ''suear trust, and then for two
or three years the profits in sugar refining
were enormous.
After this came the Mckinley bill max
ing three Important chang $ in the sugar
industry.
First-Remo1ing the duty levied on
sugar whereby the government lost $780,
10000 year revenue.
Secord-P.acing a duty Of one half
cent pound on refined sugar.
Third-Giving the domestic producer of
sugar two cents pound bounty.
Thus the revenue lost is 10000 900,
the bounty paid is IN round numbers So
600 900, and the levy by the refners on
the people, under the cover of one-haf
a cent per pound duty On refined sug
is from SIS, 100000 to S2), 00O0J a year.
Practically no refined sugar is import
ed, therefore the government receives no
revenue from the sugar.
The people of the United States now
occupy the proud position of paying aa
annual tax of SlO,000,O00 to their gov
eminent that it may pay the money to
a handful of men for producing IN arti
Gle Of daily use which can be mad
elsewhere just so mich cheaper and
of handling over to another and still
smaller handful Of men bonus Of at least
SIS, 000,0 COO year, together with the ex-
elusive privilege of supplying them-the
people-with refined sugar. This is pro
lection pure and simple, unauthorized
with any tariff for revenue.

CosHocroN, Ohio, Aug. 16.--A ter
rible accident occurred last evening on

Cause of the Accident.
The cause of the accident was briefly
as follows: A construction train in
charge of Conductor Humphrey and
Engineer Clyde White has been en-
gagged in hauling gravel from the pit
The killed and injured were engaged
in ballasting the roadway at a point
three miles north of the pit. After the
last train had been unloaded the men
boarded the cars which were being
pushed ahead of the engine to come to
their boarding camp, few hundred
yards south of the gravel pit. The
train was running at a hazardous speed,
and when it arrived at the gravel pit,
which was to be passed without stop
ping, the switch was open and the
train entered the siding and collided
with some empty ears standing on the
pit. The greater number of the work
men were seated on the first and second
cars, and when the long train turned
in upon the spur had no opportunity to
jump. Ten of the cars were piled in
mass of debris and beneath this the
poor mortals were crushed. 1t re-
quired two hours to extricate SOME of
the dead and injured.
The men We're in the employ of Nc
Arthur Brothers, contractors, and
when Superintendent Wells was asked
for the cause of the accident he said
somebody left the switch open.

TROUBLE INCREASING.
Several Guords and Miners KiIled-Trd ops
on the Road.

Knoxville, Tenn, Aug. 16.-This morn.
ing at 3 o'clock an attack was made on
the stockade at Oliver Springs by miners
and two or three guards were killed and
several miners killed and wounded
This afternoon several companies of
militia from Chattanooga and Knoxville
were sent to Oliver. They reached there
in safety, but no news can be had, as the
rioters have cut the wires. This after
noon a hundred miners armed with Win
chesters, took possession of the train on
the Knoxville & Ohio road at Coal Creek,
en- route for Clinton, where they hoped
to intercept reinforcements, but they were
too late.
The issue is grave one, for the miners
are dynamiting in Goz9n places on the
knoxville, Ohio & Walden's Ridge rail
road to wreck any train carrying the
militia.
Tonight through-mail trains could not
get forward and it is believed United
States authorities will interfere.
Chattanooga, Tenn, Aug. le At 10
O'Clock tonight sixty three soldiers left on
a special train for the scene of the dis
turbance.

Rumor of a Sympathetic Str ike

BINGHAMToN, n. Y, Aug. 1.-THE
Erie swltchmen at this station will
quit work unless the trouble which has
caused the strike west of here is settled
soon. An officer of the switchmen's
union is here in the interest of the
strikers and as the men en-
ployed in the local yards with
two exceptions belong to the union he
will have little trouble. No trouble
from the switchmen is anticipated on
the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western
unless that line endeavors to handle
the Fries freight. The telegraphers'
trouble on the Lackawanna is assuming
serious proportions. for if the men
should now go out both the Erie and
Lackawanna would be tied I'D.

The most notable feature of the pro-

tlat no British or Canadian flags were
displayed, the procession being headed
by the Irish flag, with several more of
the same kind and about a
dozen American flags scattered
through the procession. 1t was ex-
planned that the omission of the British
