THAT CHARTER REYIsION.

Special Committee Hears Arguments Con-
 cerning Commi. sions and CouneiImen.
 The special committee of the court of common council which is consider ing the proposed new charter. as re- vised by the legislative committee, gave another hearing In the aldermanic chamber last evening to the citizens and taxpayers who desired to express their views upon the subject. The special subject of consideration was the Court of Common Council and the Commissions"
 Theron A. Todd was the first speaker of the evening and opposed the present system of commissions and the aboli- tion of the board of councilmen. He, however, approved of the mayor ap- pointing the heads of tho fire and police departments. Both he and Herbert c. Warren favored the abolishment of the board of public works and the appoint ment of director of public works
 Felix Chillingworth strenuously op- posed the doing away with the board of councilmen and argued that that body often acted as a check upon the doings of the board of aldermen.
 City Treasurer E. c. Stoddard argued in favor of doing away with the board of councilmen and investing the mayor with power to appoint the commissions and advanced many cogent reasons why the proposed revised charter should be adopted.
 Morris F. Tyler decidedly opposed the mayor having the power to ap- point gas and water commissioners, as were such the case 1t would tend to possibility of having men appointed for pecuniary reasons
 Ex-Judge Pickett ably defended the present system of bipartisan commits sions and said that in his opinion no better system could be devised. He was also of the opinion that the present charter was sufficiently good for the present at least and it would be an extremely hard matter to im- prove upon 1t.
 Probably the last meeting of the committee will be held this evening, when the important subject of the consolidation of the city, town and school governments will be consid- cred.

PoIl,s Wondarland Theater.


 Leclair and Lesle's great comedy sketch, Cleopatra Up to Date," is drawing big houses daily. It is im- mensely funny and pleases all. The limitations of Janauschek, Modjeska, John T. Raymond. Henry Irving, Jim- my Russell and other noted artists are of the highest order. MT. Leclair wears some rich dresses in the charac- ter of Cleopatra and displays some beautiful diamonds. Higgins and Les- lie, Rita Durand, Kauffee and Hill, Moreland and Thompson, the Gloss brothers, and Professor Hampton's dog and cat circus, complete the bill, which is entirely up to the high stan- dard always maintained at the Won derland. An extra show will be given tomorrow, Thanksgiving day, in order that none may miss seeing the great performance.

SHE SUES FOR REVENGE.
WiIliem Corning Must Face Miss Muel
Ter In a Breach of Promise.

Willism Corning Must Face Miss MueI-
Ter In Breach of Promise.
BALDWIN, L. l., Oct. &c. A chance
meeting at strawb berry festival in the
Freeport church has ripened into a suit
for breach of promise. The plaintiff is
Miss Fueller NJ. Mueller, resident of
this village William Corning of Free
port, is the man she accuses of trifing
with her affections.
At the festival referred to, Miss Muel-
Ter is said to have been one of the sew
eral women who sold kisses for so cents
each, the proceeds going toward the
church funds. Corning and his COM
panions, 80 the story goes, each invested
30 cents. Miss Mueller was selected by
Corning and the acquaintance began
there and was continued until, accord
ing to Miss Mueller, they became en-
gagged and Oct. 18, 1899 was fixed for
their wedding.
The ceremony did not take place on
the day named and Miss Mueller, as
serts it was postponed at the request
of Corning. In the summer Corning's
father died leaving him a fortune. As
Corning still delayed the marriage, Miss
Mueller finally became convinced that
her lover intended to discard her alto
gether and she has called on the courts
to right her wrongs.

TWO POLITICAL RIOTS.
Both Occur In the City of
indianapolis.
ONE SPEAKER NARROWLY ESCAPES

He Is Beaten by Negroes, Who OBJECT
to His Tirade Upon Mr.. Harrison.
Alien Jennings Made to Seek Place
of Safety For Abuse Upon Congress-
man Bynum.
INDIANAPOLIS. Oct. 26.-There were
two political riots in this city Wednesday
night. The feeling has not run SO high
since the days of the great Garfeld-Por-
ter campaign in Indiana.
j. Milton Turner, a colored orator
who has gained notoriety in the western
states during recent years, was brought
here to address the colored people at
Yellow bridge over the canal. This is a
colored peoples locality and in 1881 a
couple of colored Democratic orators
were mobbed and nearly killed there.
Turner was greeted by an immense
crowd of colored citizens. He began
with TRADE againat ex-President Har-
rison when the displeasure of the audi
ence burst forth and a rush was made
for the stand. Turner was dragged
down and pounded in spite of the squad
of police present. His assailants were
dubbed, but the negroes could not be
driven off the man.
Finally he was dragged out and made
break for the city under the guard of
the police. In spite of this the enemies
of the orator chased him six blocks and
came near killing him.
The other riot occurred at Agness and
Morris streets on the south side where
Allen Jennings, the Populist, invaded
the Democratic quarter. They listened
until he hal heaped all the abuse he
could on Congressman Bynum and at n
signal shower of eggs, stones and po-
tatoes were rained upon him. He es-
capped from the fury of the pursuers
with little damage. a number of heads
were cracked by the stones and one lit
tie girl near the speakers stand was
badly cut over the eye.

THE IRON INDUSTRY.

Eastern Trade Good, but the West
shows Symptoms of Weakness.
NEW YORK, Oct 26.-The Iron Age
says the developments in the iron trade
show curious mixture of good and bad
news. On the whole the eastern trade
seems to feel little more confident, but
the west displays symptoms of weak
ness. So far as Bsssemer pig is con-
cerned the stories of heavy purchases
by eastern buyers in Pittsburg and the
valley should be accepted with reserve.
The billet market is weaker, with
$3.50 quoted as the basis for sales east
ward from Pttsburg and Wheeling.
The wire trade throughout isin very
unsatisfactory condition, with ugly cut
ting OF prices.
The wire rod market, too. is very
weak, and $22 so has become a general
quotation.
Rumors are fving thick and fast in
the steel rail trade and an early gather
ing OF the makers is expected Some
southern ironmakers are crowding the
markets again and have been lowering
prices.
Pig tin has had some severe poundings
last week and has dropped below 10
cants

"Davy Crockett-the Fall of the
Alamo" at the Merrill Institute to-

the occasion and the man should

TOTAL OF 5000, ob4 ,UUU pounds. In
the previous year the total was B.
210, sos, 900, and in 1891 go it was 3,
1856, 49,, 900 pounds The year just
passed therefore, shows an increase
of 347 $40 pounds as compared with
the preceding year, and the largest
takings on record, except in l890-91.
The takings in Great Britain, how
ever, though larger than the proceed
ing two seasons, were less than
those of 1889 80 and 1990-91.
The worlds consumption of cot
ton for the past twelve months is
put at IL, 853, 234 bales of 400 pounds
each. This is the largest on record
with the exception OF two years,
1890-91 and 1891 -92. A table of the
total consumption for the past
fifteen years show steady but not
invariable rate OF increase. In 1879
so the consumption was 1892, 480
bales of 400 pounds each, Com
pared with this the total consump-
ton last year shows an increase of
So per cent. Since 1880 the con
sumption in Great Britain has in
creased from 3, $50, 900 to 1910, 900
bales; ON the Continentfrom 2,750,
000 to 1874 900; in the United
States 1 1891 900 to 2, So, 900, and in
India from 301 $50 to 1, 1879, 234. 1t
thus appears that the consumption
in India has increased faster than
in any of the other divisions.
Mr.. Ellison's estimate for the cur
rent year, from October !, 1894, to
October l, 1895, will be of interest.
He puts the requirements of Europe
and the United States for American
cotton at 8,248, 600 bales of 468
pounds each; for East India cotton
at /, LOO, 900 bales, and for other
kinds at l, 1872, 600 bales. This gives
u total of 10, $40, 900 bales of 468
pounds, equal to II, $50, 600 bales Of
400 pounds. In making this esti-
mate he puts the requirements for
all cotton other than American at
the same figures as last years ae-
tual consumption. For American
cotton he raises the figures from
Z, 796, 900, the actual consumption
for the past year, to 8,248, 600 of 468
pounds. He puts the crop of the
United States at $3.50, 600 bales,
which shows very small margin
above requirements. The estimated
consumption of American cotton for
the current year is only 30, 900 bales
in excess of the actual takings of
1919
Mr.. Ellison's estimate for the cur
rent year, being equivalent TO Il,
800, 900 bales of 400 pounds each, is
greater than the actual consumption
of the year 1893-94 by 546 600 bales
of 400 pounds each, but it is less
than that of 1891 80 by l38, 600 bales
This estimate does not include the
requirements of India, which takes
but little more than one-eleventh of
the consumption of the world.
While midas consumption of cotton
has nearly quadrupled in the past
fifteen years, the increase for the
last four years has been very small.
