HERE'S CHANCE FOR TRADE.
Consul TinSle Reports Germany
Needs American Furniture,

Consul Tingle Reports Germany
Needs American Furniture.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1S.-Consui E.
W. s. Tingle, of Brunswick, Germany.
has Sent 10 the state department a
sanguine report upon the field present.
ed for expectation of Anerican-made
furniture to Germany. He represents
that the Germans are very unskiIled in
the manufacture of furniture, despite
the fact that they are in general EN-
inentiy practical and excel in many
forms of handicraft. Two reasons exist
for this deficiency. the scarcity of wood
in Germany and the fact that the Ger
mans have not accustomed themselves
to as many articles of furniture as are
used in America. Be the reason what
ever it may, the consul writes, there is
no good furniture in Germany, and he
thinks there is all excellent field for the
extension of trade in the American
product.

DYNAMITE ON THE TRACK.
Crowded Passenger Train Narrowly
Escapes Destruction by
Robbers.

st. Louis, Mo-, Aug. 3.-An attempt at
train robbery was made near Eureka,
Mo, last night. The escape of the entire
train and 1S3 persons upon it from abso-
lutte destruction was by a miracle. The
desperadoes forced open car Of dyna-
mite that stood on the sidetrack below
the station at Eureka and stole two big
dynamite CARTRIDGES that were intended
for heavy blasting III QuarreS and mines.
Each cartridge was capable of tearing to
pieces tons of solid rock. They were
placed by the daStardly bandits OH the
rails, the intention being to destroy the
train aud piunder the richly-laden express
car and probably the passengers. 1t is a
miracle that the entire train was not
hurled to destruction, for the devils who
attempted to wreck it placed the car
tridges within a few feet of a car which
contained ten tons of dynamite. They
then secreted themselves and waited for
the train that was due to arrive a few
minutes before 10 o'clock The train left
st. Louis at $50 o'clock and was only
a few minutes behind, the delay having
been caused by the shooting of the express
messenger by one of the robbers who
wheels of the engine rolled on the car
tridges there was Il terrific explosion,
which lifted the machine from the tracks
and tore the massive pilot from the steel
bolts with which it was riveted to the en-
CINE. All the forward part of the ma
chine was wrecked and twisted, and a.
though it was able to carry the train q
few miles beyond it was 50 badly wrecked
that another engine had to be procured
Inc entire train was severely shaken. the
windows broken and the packages of let
terS thrown from the boxes of the mail
car. The explosion tore a great hole in
the earth, tore the rails from the fasten-
ings and flung the ties in every direction
1t tore open one side of the dynamite car
and exposed to view tons of the powerful
explosive, yet for some unaccountabie rea-
son this great mass of dynamite with
energy enough TO blow an entire city off
the face of the earth did not explode.
1t 1t had, not a person in all those 1873
passengers would have escaped.

HAWAIIANS VISIT GRESHAM.
Commission Representing the Ex-
Queen Visit the Department
OF State.

Washington, D. c., Aug. Al. a.
Wideman, one of the three Hawaiian roy
alist commissioners now in Washington,
called at the state department today and
had half hours interview with Secre-
tary Gresham. The call was purely in
formal, and in fact, it could not have been
otherwise, as the commissioners, being
unprOvided with credentials from any
recognized government, can have no for
NAL standing before the state depart
ment. The secretary questioned the COM
missioner closely as to the authority by
which he appeared, what the commission
was doing here, and as to Hawaiian af
fairs generally. To ali these questions
Mr.. Wideman responded freely, a2F
among other things disabused the secre--
tary's mind Of the impression that the
commission was seeking to influence Con
gress in the eX-Queen's favor. The in
terview was characterized by the best of
feeling, but when the commissioner left
it was not known whether he would call
again, and as he had been given to un-
derstand that the commission cannot be,
dealt with officially by the department
there is ground for the presumption that
the mission is at an end

The union sees in the recent action of Bishop
Watterson, which has been SO nobly sustained
by Mgr. Satolli, a long step in the right direc-
ton. 1t is believed that this action will crys-
talilze the influence of the church against the
saloon and will stamp his letter indelibly upon
the!rreconcllable enemy of the church The
decision OF the papal delegate cannot fail to
give addltlonal authority to the recommends
ton of the court of Baltimore that all Catholic
saloon keepers abandon soon as they can the
dangerous traffic and embraced more becoming
way OF making living. The decision will
serve as q renewal of the Invitation which our
holy iather, Leo Kill, has already addressed
TO all priests of the land to enter into The work
OF temperance reform. And with the clergy
strongly committed against the saloon, the day
o. ylndic cations for the church in America will
be near at hand The scandal of preponderat-
