Largest Lighthouse In the World

The distinction Of owning the most
powerful fash light and the largest
lighthouse in the world belongs to
France This monster light has been
set up at Cap de la Heve, near Havre,
in the centre of the most dangerous
section OF the French coast For the
past year the French Lighthouse
Board has been making some curious
experiments at the Cap de la Heve
tower. First they used oil lamps with
fixed lenticular apparatus which
yielded 10, 600 candle power and could
be seen 40. miles. The next trial was
that of the fixed lenticular in connec-
ton with powerful electric arc lamps,
the light in this case being equal to
"a, 900 candle power, and capable of
being seen fifty-seven miles The
next trial was that of electric arc and
flashing machinery yielding $4,000, =
900 (twenty-four million) candle
power, and which could be seen no
less than 1870 miles ON a clear night.
The light now in use ut this Titan of
the lighthouse has power equal to 40,
900, 600 candles, and its reflection can
be seen DAB miles. st. Louis Re

HE WOULDN'T BITE
An Ingenious Scheme to
Raise Money.
Bogus Lottery Tickets Sent to a
WeII-Known Citizen With
Catchy inducements.

An ingenious scheme to raise money on
almost the same principle as the green
goods" game. but with surer chance of
sue ess. was brought to the attention of
Captain Lees yesterday.
A well-known citizen received package
by express few days ago, the contents of
which not only surprised but angered him.
There was a typewriter letter dated
kansas City. Kansas, April 10. 1884," Dur-
porting to be signed by &c. +. Stiles,
President Louisiana Lottery Company"
1t expressed regret that the interest in lot
teries had fallen away in "your town" for
the reason that no big prizes had been
drawn for years. There was only one way
to revive the old interest and excitement.
and that was for some one to draw prize
large enough in value to stimulate and in
duce others to start buying tickets again.
ST." continues the letter, "some we'll
known man like yourself should draw
SIS, 900, $4,000. $4,000 or even $1,000 IN our
thousands of our tickets in your part of
the country. and would create an old-time
boom for us again."
Enclosed was bunch of fifty 81 tickets
for the drawing Nav g. and a separate
ticket, which was the bait to catch the
sucker" This separate ticket was in a
small envelope. and written on the back OF
to sell this ticket to some prominent per.
son. who would not object to having his
name published should he draw large
priZe."
The reel pient was told that his commits.
siou would be 25 per cent on all tickets
sold, and he was to remit the money and
send all communications by express only,

nation.
1t is unnecessary to say that the tickets
are bogus. They are very poor imitation
OF the real ones, but might be passed upon
pe0ple who are not specifically inclined.
The whole scheme is q cleverly con-
cocted one, and as large number of SINH
lar circulars have without doubt been sent
throughout the country the originate in
Kansas City will reap harvest. unless the
receivers have the sense to hand the docu-
ments to the police, as has been done here.

..PRoM,nEnTs" INDICTED.


CharEsd with Violation of. the hibernate
Commercs Lava. 49,
CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-The federal grand
jury made final report Of tho investiga-
ton Of the rebates alleged to have been
paid by the Santa Fe railroad In violation
Of the interstate commerce law, and re-
turned six indictments against the official
Of the road and shippers, who, 1t is
claimed, received rebates. One of the men
indicted was Joseph W. Reinhart, ex-
president of the company, and until
recently one of the receivers Of the road,
and one Of the. shippers, against whom
true bill was returned, was Nelson
Morris, the well-known Chicago packer,
and the largest cattle shipper In the world.
Mr.. Reinhart was the general auditor
Of the Santa Fe at the time the offenses
alleged in the indictment were com
mitted. Ho subsequently was made presi-
dent.
Joined In the same Indictment with Mr..
Reinhart was John A. Hanley, general
freight and traffic manager Of the road,
who resigned from his position about two
weeks ago, and is not now connected with
the company. Indictments were also re-
turned against General Manager Jenkins,
of the Hammond Beef company, and Isaac
Thompson, Of Kansas City There are seven
indictments against these five men. Tho
other indictment, 1t Is said, is against a
clork In the employ Of the Atchison, who,
1t is alleged, made out the rebates.
The maximum penalty imposed on a
shipper for negotiating illegal rates is a
fine Of g, 600, or imprisonment not to ex-
coed two years, or both, in the discretion

The wholesale sugar merchants of the
United States, under direction of the
Sugar combine or trust, have published
circular, by authority of the Demo-
cratic national committee, showing that
the price of sugar has not advanced.
This confirms the statement lately pub
lished by us that there was an agree
ment between the Sugar trust and the
Democratic party that the price Of sugar
should not be advanced pending the
general election this fall, but the con-
tract was not binding upon the retail
dealers They, fully understanding that
the price of sugar was to be advanced
after the election, have already adj
yanced the price to about cent per
pound, SO that they may share in the
profits that otherwise would have ac-
crued to the Sugar trust and the Demo-
cratic campaign fund. Let the people
wait till after the election and see
whether we have not told the truth
about this matter. The price of sugar
must and will go up under the opera
tions of the Sugar trust tariff.
The Wilmington daily Republican. (Wilmington, Del.) 1890-1902, 1894-10-20

Since the passage Of the Sugar trust
tariff the planters Of Louisiana, who
have devoted their energies for more
than 100 years to the production of
sugar, are now up in arms everywhere.
The Democratic party with all its pres
tige is not able to restrain this uprising.
These planters and the thousands of peo-
pie dependent upon them, together with
lawyers. bankers, brokers, merchants,
manufacturers and representatives of
labor in all departments, have signified
by the late uprising and the splendid
organization they are perfecting their
intentions of refuting the Sugar trust
tariff enacted by the late Democratic
congress Better things are yet to come.
The people are to be congratulated.
Shams and professions will no longer
answer the purpose. The people cannot
be deceived. Protection and sugar pro-
duction are handmaidens in our great
industrial country, and the party who
strikes down this great enterprise can
not remain in power. Louisiana will be
represented in the next congress by men
who cannot be persuaded to strike down
the sugar industry.
