The use of paper money causes a
big loss to the people of this country
and corresponding gain to the gov
eminent. The aggregate of United
States currency, fractional and other
wise, estimated to have been destroy
ed, and not likely to be presented for
redemption, approximates S14, 900, :
600. A recent estimate prepared in
the treasury department. places the
sum as high as 1000, 900. This mon
ey can only be taken out of the lib
bilities of the government by con-
gressional enactment. This will proba-
bly, be attempted in the near future.
The Investigations into the subject
have shown that most of the money
lost has been destroyed in railroad
wrecks that caught fire, though no
inconsiderab1e quantity has been des-
troyed by fires that occurred in coun-
try banks, post Offices and residen
ces.

LAST YEARS. DISASTERS.

With general prosperity and what
may be called good luck in 1892, there
were yet some notable disasters; some
of them terrible. 1t is worth while to
recall few:
In the Dutch East Indies volcanic
eruption killed 1900 people, while a
hurricane which devastated the island
of Mauritius destroyed ], 1000 lives. A
mine explosion in Bohemia killed 300
people, one in Belgium 800 and one in
England A. A steamer was wrecked
in the China sea and 414 people perish
ed. Other wrecks which caused large
loss of life were: The Wolcow in the
Caspian sea, $50; Solimoes off Brazil,
100; Bokhara in Chinese waters, 100;
Anchor line steamer Roumania off
Portugal, 113, and Ajax in the gulf of
Finland, 80. There were many other
losses of life at sea.
The casualties in the United States
were numerous and cost fully 5000
lives Among the most disastrous
were: Flood and fire at Oil Greek,
Pa, 1856; western tornadoes, 206; fall
of bridge at Covington, Ky, 80; mine
explosion at Krebs, I. T., 65; mine ex-
plosion at Roslyn, Wash, A, and cap
sizing of steamer in Peoria lake, ILL.,,
IS people killed. By explosion Of pow
der, dynamite or steam, fully 100 more
lives were lost. There were twelve
serious railway collisions, the great
est losses of life being: Cleves, O., 10;
Altoona, Pa, IA; Wooster,O., 10; Har
risburg, Pa, -. The number of per-
sons killed singly on railroads was of
course very large.
The most disastrous fire of the year
was that at ST. Johns, N. F., which
caused seven deaths,a loss of 0,000,
900 in money and left $4,000 people
homeless. In the United States there
were over 100 fires where the losses
ranged from 500, 900 to $500, 900. Con-
81 600, 600 were those at Memphis, New
Bay City, Mich, Philadelphia, |
Baltimore. The latter city also had |
a $4,000 fire, while Rockway Beach
had one where the loss was $300,000
The greatest fire was that of Milwau
kee, which caused loss of So, 800, 900,
5he next greatest being the one at New
Orleans, $4,000, 900. The above con-
1agration caused a loss of over 100
ives, the greatest fatality being: Ho
jel Royal, New York, so; indianapolis
hospital, 10; Philadelphia, u; Mil
vaukee, 10.
