that Alfred e. Smith, New York agent of
the Glen Paper Manufacturing company
of Berlin Falls. N. H.. has disappeared
with $3.50, 1000 of the concerns funds
besides about $12.0O0 borrowed from
friends, created no little excitement in
the wholesale paper trade. At the New

his brother was missing, but beyond that
would make no statement. Alfred K.
Smith is said to live at Railway, N. j.

featuring company.
Prior to that he represented the
Wynona Paper company of Holyoke,

was very popular, and was welcomed in
to the best families. About year ago
he married Miss Ella Dow. Smith was
a vestryman in st. Paul's Episcopal
church. and lived in good style. He had
purchased a handsome lot of ground,
where it is said he intended to build
house in the spring. A reporter went to
the places usually visited by Smith, but
he could not be found. He received
message just after dinner.

Debris of Wrecked Buildings.

Memphis, Tenn, February s.-A
cyclone passed over the northwestern
portion of Mississippi this afternoon and
laid waste to everything in its path.
Plantations were devastated, farm houses
wrecked and debris scattered over the
country for miles around. Telegraph
wires were Frustrated and it is impossi-
BILE to obtain particulars from the
stricken districts tonight. On the plan
tation of Col. Nugent, four miles north
east of Greeneville, Miss, cabin was
blown down and Mrs. VIM. Brady, colored,
was killed Her husband was blown
several hundred feet and received
serious, if not fatal, injuries. The gin
house and tenement houses on the
Nugent place were blown down and a
large tree twisted from it's stump and
carried away. The cyclone passed
through Washington and Bolivar
countries, thickly populated with pros
porous farmers, and it is feared the death
ist will be greatly swelled when the de-
tails are known.
Baton Rouge, La, February S.-A
cyclone struck Port Hudson this morn
ing, demolishing a number OF houses,
uprooting trees and levelling fences. On
the Delomre place and Chambers planta-

GLoUCESTER's DEAD.
Memorial Services for the Fishermen Lost
During the Year.

Gloucester, February S.-The annual
memorial services for the fishermen who
were lost during the year were held last
night. The people crowded the large
city hall to testify their appreciation for
the brave fellows who have gone forth
upon the waters and have fallen victims
to the fury of the waves. But few if any
other cities in the country are called up
on annually to thus publicly show their
respect for the dead, wrung from them
by the visitations of the elements, and
these gatherings but emphasize anew the
great price paid in blood and treasure for
the position of the chief fishing port of
America. These gatherings are held un-
der the auspices of the Gloucester Relief
Association, an organization which looks
after the widows and orphans. Rev. Ne

Washington News-Bland's Bill Will

Rescue of Peckham.
Washington, February s.-This morn
Vest, the committee in charge of the
tariff bill in the Senate, resumed their
labors. Experts Of the Treasury Depart-
ment have been assigned to assist the
committe and all the speed possible con-
sistent with thorough work will be
made The cardinal principle of the sub
committee is bill for revenue only. One
of tine Senators said this morning that
when the bill was reported, it would be
found to be in accordance with the
Chicago platform and would yield
sufficient revenue to meet the needs OF
the government. There is said to be
some opposition in the subcommittee TO
the income tax and enormous pressure is
being brought to bear upon the sub-com-
m1ttee to provide for revenue in some
other way. The subcommittee has about
concluded it would be better to have
sugar contribute a portion towards the
revenue than levy a tax on incomes.
This, some of the committee consider,
is more in the line of revenue tariff
which they are endeavoring to frame.
Raw sugar will probably be required
to pay duty of about three fourths of
a cent pound and the refined articles
one cent, to meet the premium of
quarter OF cent pound the German
government pays on refined sugar ex-
ported by it's people. Iron ore Will
proposed by the House bill and will
bear revenue tariff of twenty or thirty
per cent ad valorem. Gloves, silks, laces,
ETC., will probably be allowed to carry
the duties fixed by the House.
The memorial of the National Wool
Growers association was presented to the
Senate by Mr.. Sherman today. 1t records
the failure of the association to secure
hearing by the tnances committee After
giving STATISTICS of the magnitude OF the
sheepraising industry, it shows that
free wool will destroy the wool industry
here; will be an act of bad faith 60 the
investors who were led into the business
by the promise of existing laws; and will
disastrously,affect all related and depend
ent agricultural industries, cutting off
demands for pasturage, ETC., and SO
affecting half of the population engaged
in agriculture, and in turn reacting upon
merchants. The objection is also made
that free wool will drain away our gold
to the amount of 3O,OOO,000 annually.
1t is also contended that the present
duties are revenue and not protective
duties and that free wool will not give
cheaper clothing.
