MARCH FORECAST. 1894.

Tho month will register its en-
trance cold aud frosty in eastern
parts; IN the west the temperature
will be growing warmer and storm
threatening conditions developing,
which will eliminate in storm
wave about the 3D. or 4th in central
and eastern parts, which most likely
will be severe and of general char
actcr leaving IN many places some
snow and cold wave in it's rear.
About the 9Th change to warm
will start in the west, moving east
ward followed closely by wave OF
disturbance which will be in transit
from the 7th to the sth in central
and eastern parts. Snow, sleet and
storms Of wind are likely to prevail,
especially the latter OH the lakes
and Atlantic coast. A cold wave is
likely to set in after the passage of
the storm holding to about the 18th
or 18th. The rainfall from this
period is likely to be more general
and in greater quantities than has
fallen in the past months of the
winter. The storms Of wind follow.
ing the 10th or 18th of the month
will be very severe in the storm
areas, hurricanes and cyclones will
develop in many portions Of south
ern and western territory, and also
gales exceeding the ordinary will be
felt both on the northern lakes and
the Atlantic on or touching the
above dates. Much electric display
in the sense Of lightning and claps
of thunder will be an accom- pani-
ment OF the periods of storm i'm
question. From about the 18th TO
10th storms will be on their passage,
which perhaps may leave in their
tracks across the continent some
snow and swollen streams. From
the 10th to the 23d will usher in
another period Of storms of wind
and rain. And from the 25th to
the 9th period of disturbance is
reached. All of which are likely to
prove IN their passage severer at
points where conditions favor storm
Development. The month will close
with storm on the wing. The
first half of the month of April is
likely to be very changeable alter
mating from warm and spring Ike
to cool and very chilly and attended
by wet. The after part favorable.

mystery in our road working that
We would be glad to have the light
turned on, that we may understand
it better.
We now have machinery to work
our roads with, which, we under
stood, would reduce our taxes, but
on examining our tax receipt we
find road tax higher this year than
last, IA we'll as other taxes. Why
is 1t that this administration of our
Commissioners cannot be run as
economically as our former Court
Mr.. Shaw ran the business of the
District, and WAS one of the best
Commissioners we ever had.
Our roads are in a bad condition.
Have bad no money expended on
the roads that have benefited them
any. The majority of the people
seem to realize that there is some
thing wrong and the running ma
chinery needs some repairs. We
want to find out where the leak
is at. so that we may make the nec-
essary repair that we may reduce
our taxes, have better roads, and
not spend all the money with few

General Bissell that keeps this man

him to be an offensive partisan of

the severest condemnation, and
such mugwumpery as this will do
more towards defeating the Demo-

than all the tariff bills ever passed.

Due to a Moving of a Switch-NO
Person Injured.
New BEDFORD, Mass, April %, 1S94.-A
railroad accident occurred near the Pearl
street station this morning. The two pas
senger cars attached to the train from New
York, due here at SOS O'Clock, were
drawn by locomotive 1873. At a point a
little over 200 yards north of the
Pearl street station sthe train switches
from the east to the west of the two
main tracks, but the tender, being light and
the switch TO throw it, the west track took
the locomotive, being heavy, ran through
and took the track to the west. The result
was that the tender was thrown around and
across the tracks, and, pushed by the weight
of its locomotive and cars left the rail-
The locomotive was also pulled from the
rails and ploughed its way along, pushing
the tender for distance of fifty or sixty
feet, and several lengths of rail were
bent and sleepers badly splintered
The casing to one of the steam chests of the
locomotives was broken, splinters were torn
from the iron wheels, the brass around one
cylinder cracked the glass and woodwork on
one side of the cab broken and splintered
and the couplings broken and twisted The
tender was badly wrecked. The engineer
Charles Clifford, and Fireman Haskins both
stuck to their posts, and that neither of the
men was injured was almost miraculous
when 1t is considered that one side of the cab
is nearly crushed in. No passengers were in
jured.

WASHINGTON, April 23, 1S94.-The COM
mittee of the Pennsylvania workingmen
who remained over Sunday for the purpose
of seeing the Democratic Senators repre-
senting Northern States and urging them
to stand for amendments to the Wilson bill,
does not appear to have had very marked
success. Senator Mcpherson of New Jersey
was not seen at all. He went to New Jersey
Friday and returned yesterday afternoon.
He said this morning that he had always
seen persons who called upon him in regard
to the tariff regardless of their views, and if
the committee of the Philadelphia working
men failed to see him it was not owing to
any disposition on his part not to see them.
The committee, he said, did not call upon
him either at his residence or at his commit
tee room at the Capitol. Had they done so,
he said, he would have been very glad to
listen to them.
Brice of Ohio brought notice from the
committee that they would call upon him
that morning at nine o'clock for the purpose
OF talking with him on the impending bill.
Mr. Brice had, however, LETT the city the
night before. and when the committee called
at his residence the Senator was not in town.
The committee has not yet seen Mr.. Brice,
although they may this afternoon, as he will
be back again later in the day.
A committee of five representing the wool
len and worsted manufactured goods and the
manufacture of carpets called upon Mr..
PETER (Pop. Kan.) this morning and urged
him to vote against the passage of the Viii
before the Senate, if it became a law,
would greatly reduce the wages
of the men employed in these industries
and that the American people could not
afford to cause this great reduction in the
earning capacity of wage workers. Mr..
PETER listened attentively to all that was
said and promised to consider it with due
care, but avoided making any pledge as to
what his conduct would be when he came to
vote on the bill

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
Emigrants Returned to England
From the United States.

EEOAU INC State8s
By Gable to the United Press.
LONDON, April 90, 1s94-In the House of
Commons today, the Royal assent to the
Berhing Sea Act was announced
Mr.. Charles E. II. Vincent asked the Gov
ernment as to the truth of the report that
1858 emigrants had been sent back to Eng
land in the year 1898 under the United States
Immigration law.
Mr.. Mundella, President of the Board of
II ade, said the report greatly exaggerated
the number, there having been only $40 emil
grants returned during 1898.
Right Hon. Herbert Gardner, President of
the Board of Agriculture, replying to ques-
tions, stated that the Government would
make an immediate investigation of the
question of readmission of Canadian cattle
into England. He thought that to great
extent case had already been made out in
favor of resembling the regulations requiring
that Canadian cattle should be slaughtered
before they were landed. The inquiry would
be conducted as a special matter and would
occupy as little time as possible
Right Hon. Henry Chaplin asked when the
inquiry would begin.
Mr.. Gardner said the inquiry would begin
when bulk cattle began to arrive from
Canada. He was prepared to withdraw the
restrictions at once but said he could not do
SO prior to the investigation.

tion Of the board a hearing on the bill
Major Murphey treated the reasonable re-
quest OF the representative body of Jerseys
business men with silent contempt.
RAILROADS GET HEARING.
The railroads, however, for some cause or
other concluded that they would like to have
a hearing and conveyed that fact to Major
Murphey. Immediately the Major informed
the representative of the railroads that their
request would be granted and fixed Tuesday
as the date of the hearing. Jersey City
Board Of Trade proposes to send delegation
to Trenton on Tuesday, which will insist
upon being heard. They will also tell Major
Murphey what they think of him as friend
of the people when the corporations are
concerned.
Major Murphy's colleagues on this COM
mittee are Mr.. Reading of Hunterdon, an
out and out railroad man; Mr.. Ross of Cape
May, another of the same Sort and Noisy
Beekman of Middlesex Democrat), an en-
ploye of the Lehigh Valley. Mr.. McEwan
is also upon the committee, but he is power
less against this combination Major Muir
ply and his colleagues are the gentlemen
who reported the two cent ferry bill adj
versely, and it was Mr. McEwan who in
spite of the committee saved the bill and got
it on the calendar.
