GREAT LOSS
On Account ofthe louisville Bridge
Disaster.
The Big Four Railroad Co. Is Anxious thas
tho Vorx OF Rebuilding BE Com
mepcd ut Onco- Interesting Railroad
Enterprise on Foot ut Louisville.

.TrrrEssoNvILlE. Ind, Jan. 5.-The
Phoenix Bridge Co is discussing the
renewal of work on the wrecked Lou"
ixyillc and Jcffersonvillc bridge. Tho
Mr -Four Co is anxious that
the work of rebuilding be COM
monced ut once. The same is said OF
the Phoenix Co, who will not likely
wait upon the government to clear the
debris from the bed of the river, be-
cause it is thought that the United
States authorities will take their time
on the work, considering the fact that
nearly two years werc required clear
ing the Chesapeake & Ohio railway
bridge wreck at Cincinnati.
The work on the superstructure will
not be commenced until after the June
rise. and the latest date fixed upon by
the Phoenix Co. to complete the struc-
ture is September /, 1894.
A gentleman largely Interested in tho
enterprise is authority for the state
ment that the loss cntailed by the disas-
ter TO the Phoenix Co. is s135, 0G0. While
this company is only capitalized at $780,
600. the stockholders consist of the
Reeves and Davises, of Philadelphia,
whose combined wealth is estimated at
sl5. O0o, 900. The parent concern of this
company is the Phoenix Iron Co., OF
Phtenixville, Pa, with capital stock
of 50, coo, 900, also owned by the Reeves
and Davses, and of which the Phoenix
Co.. as we'll as the smaller corporations,
ore branches.
On March / the annual meeting OF
the Louisville and Jcfforsonville Bridge
Go. will take place at Louisville, and
the railway companies interested will
secure representation in the directory at
that time. This will be the preliminary
step toward the Big Four assuming act
i've control.
1t is understood that if business re-:
sumes in the spring, the contemplated
louisville & Cincinnati short line, from
Aurora to this city, thence to Louisz
Vile will be commenced. This line,
When completed, will be 102 miles long,
whereas the L. & N. is 10 miles, and
the b. & O. S. w. $50 miles to Cincin-
pati.
A number of farmers on the proposed
route have signified their willingness
to give the right of way to further
The enterprise, as it will open up g
country that has no railroad facilities
whatever.
Some six or eight years ago the city
of Madison voted an appropriation Of

been accomplished toward commencing.

SIERRA LEONE MASSACRE
France Must Give an Explanation
for Firing on British Soldiers.
1t Ia Regarded NJ Certain That President
Carnot HiIl Have TO Pay England .
Handsome Tribute to Escape tho
Consequences OF That Action. !:

LONDON, sJan. a-England is thor
oughly aroused over the Sierra Leone
massacre in West Africa, and the dis
cussion Of this incident is more bcllig-
erent than has been heard ut any tino
since Great Britain and France rubbed
shoulders together on territory both
coveted. In official circles the greatest
reticence is maintained, but Lord Rose
berry's comments are reported to DO
dangerously businesslike.
1t has been known for some time past
that Lord Roseberry regarded an inter-
ruptional controversy with France as
among the certainties of the future,
and Sunday night his utterances OF q
few weeks ago, in which he admitted
that the European situation was crit
ical, are quoted as significant OF tho
governments probable attitude to-
wards France in this --latest outrage.
1t is felt that France viii, have to give
better excuse in explanation OF tho
firing on the British soldiers at Sierra
Leone than that it was an accident
1t is regarded ns certain that Presi-
dent Carnot will not only find himself
obliged to tcnder an apology to Great
Britain for the action of Lieut. Moritz
and his men, but that he will have to
pay handsome tribute to the Golfers
of John Bull to escape the consequences
of that action. England is in no mood
to trile with France. The irritating
aggressiveness of the French in China
and Siam, covert interference with
British plans in Egypt and in East
Africa, followed by the firing on Brit
ish soldiers on the west coast, have
notified the Gladstone ministry and
aroused the sluggish temper of tho
English people.
It will require the rarest tact and
diplomacy to bring about an amicable
settlement Of the grave international
question now precipitatcd, and much
will depend upon the manner in which
President Carnot undertakes the task.
Unless he acts speedily and satisfactor-
lily, it is we'll within the marks TO say
that England will act swiftly and with
all the force at her command. a delay in
enCSTlHR luLO HcSOtldtlOuS 1oChLhS "
settlement will not be brooked. This
much is CLEANED from authorities close
to Lord Roseberry. The woll-known
hatred of the French for everything
English is remembered only too we'll,
and as if by. sudden impulse the de-
mand for prompt reparation has como
from all quarters.
The newspapers have taken q con-
servative stand, acting, it is thought.
upon request from tho foreign office.
but beneath the tempered remarks OF
the Times there is manifest spirit Of
hostility toward France which is un-
mistakable. The fact that the govern
ment has authorized the building Of
twenty-five new warships at o total
cost exceeding $685. 600, 900, is considered
significant at this time, and the Sierra
Leone incident completely vindicatcS
In the popular mind the opposition to
Mr. Gladstone's plan Of naval rctrench-
ment.

A Laborer's Mysterious Find Sets U.
- Secret Service Men ut Work.
DETROIT, Mich, Jan. S.-The local
police are lnystified over finding gold
brick in the suburbs of the city. Two
weeks ago Conrad Johnson, a laborer,
was digging in his yard, when he
struck what he thought was large,
ohlong piece of brass, and with it o
bottle Of gold paint.
At brass foundry he was told that
the metal was worth more than brass,
and few days later a pcddler offered
him $500 for it. Then he took it to a
local jewelry house, where he was told
that the metal was six carats gold, and
worth about 1900, John kept the
brick, but informed the police of his
find, and United States secret service
officers are now working on the case.
They believe the find is part of the out
fit of gold brick swindling gang, who
buried it where it was found and then
were unable to return and recover it.

paper men,
The reason for Munger's action in re-
fusing to allow any communication
with his vessel, is probably chagrin at
the fact that the sailing of the corwin
for Honolulu from here was announced
in the newspapers two days before she
sailed. Munger made strenuous efforts
to conceal the fact that he was going
to Honolulu, and even after the news
papers had published the news, he en-
phatically denied that Honolulu was
his destination.
1t is believed here that the Corwin
brought the answer of the provisional
government to Minister Willis demand
for surrender. That reply is undoubt-
eddy in the hands of the state depart
ment at Washington, and from the
present indications Washington will
have to be looked to for news.
Hawaiian Consul Wilder expressed
the belief that the Corwin had his gov

what he thought that answer was said:
81 think that the provisional govern
ment has informed Minister Willis that
it considers the Hawaiian question in
the hands of congress, and will submit,
if they submit at all, only to the die

There is great activity at the navy
yard at Mare Island, and suspicion is
excited that there is fighting going on
in Hawaii, and that United States war
vessels will quickly start for the scene
Of action.

of the decrease in various branches Of

actual sales have lecn reported by

couraging fact that sales of groceries
are slightly larger than last year,
though little less in the east and
west, but greater in the south. The
fact that in most branches the decrease
appears smaller in the west than in tho
east, and smaller in the south than in
the west, is one curious result Of this
novel investigation.
