ing the presidents resignation was dls- played in the windows of the news paper offices the reports were generally not credited. The truth made disa- greeable impression.
 The News Paris correspondent says: M Casimlr-Perier has submitted to the ministry a sketch of his message to be read to the chambers tomorrow. He re- ferred to the patriotic spirit in which he assumed the post of honor and danger to which he was called without having sought it. "I had the singleminded wish." he says, "to be not man of party, but a man of all France; to de- fend order, seeking inspiration from the example of the lamented Carnot. But to my deep sorrow found that pleased no party. 1 was attacked on every side"
 The chief candidates for the presi- dency will be Henri Brisson. The na- tional assembly may desire to elect M. Casimir- -Perier, but he will probably refuse to come forward. M. Waldeck Rousseau is also mentioned. but he was an important member of the cabi- net of 1883. M. Dupuy wished M. Chal1emel-Lacour to stand, but the lat ter dislikes the idea. Public order does not seem to be threatened. There is nothing dangerous, but France needs quiet

MOVED DOWN LIKE GRASS.
Many People Killed by Explosions of
 Powder.

Butte. Mont, Jan. 15.-During fire at the Montana Central railway yards this evening several cars of powder caught fire and exploded with tremend- ous force, killing number of firemen and spectators and maiming many oth- CTS. There were three separate eNplo- sions, the first two breaking nearly every window within a radius of two miles.
 The fire attracted large crowd and hundreds were standing near when the frs explosion occurred Men and wo- men were moved down like grass be- fore 4 scythe Debris from cars and adjoining buildings was scattered high into the air for half a mile away, many of the flying articles striking people in the crowd. Every ambulance, vehicle and doctor in town was soon on the scene.
 As there were still several cars of powder on the track, and one of the burning warehouses also contained a quantity of powder few dared after the first explosion to venture to the assist ance of the injured. When they did they were met by the second explosion. The second was soon followed by the third and the heavens were lighted with flame. The reports were heard and the shock felt for miles.
 After the third explosion the hospital corps and the police began the work ot picking up the dead and caring for the wounded. Fifteen dead bodies were piled together, and many of them, be- ing badly mangled, they were not iden- tified.
 Every house in the vicinity was turn | cd into a hospital The scene after the l explosions was beyond all description Men and women wrung their hands and cried in agony. It is said that every fireman was either killed or fatally wounded.

 Der of dead will reach at least seventy five

CARS STONED BY THE MOB.
JUST AS SOON AS ONE LEFT THE
 STATION TT VAS STONED.

A Woman Threw Stone Through the
 Window of One and Was Then Arrested
 Mounted Police Charged Upon the Crowo
 Who Quickly Gave Way.
 Brooklyn, Jan. 15,--The first car on the Fifth avenue line was started from the Twenty-fourth street station at 1'oo o'clock this afternoon. At that time the avenue was packed with people as far as Ninth street. As soon as the car left the station it was attacked by mob who threw sticks and stones' but was soon dispersed by the police The next car was started at ? o'clock, That was atts cked also. A woman standing beside the station threw stone through the car window and was arrested.
 The car proceeded on its way snort distance and then came to standstlll' and sticks, stones and bits of iron began to fly. Inspector Kellar ordered the mounted police to charged on the crowd, which promptly gave way before the horses. A third and fourth car were started out later, each accompanied by a squad of mounted police. There was no further molestation.
 Shortly before o'clock 1000 persons under the lead of strikers, overpowered the police, who had manned mail car of the Atlantic company at Union street and Fifth avenue, The police had to call for help, and four wagon loads of policemen were sent to their rescue.
 At 2 o'clock 5000 persons crowded the Prospect park plaza and declared no car should pass. A mail car came along and the strikers stopped it. Policeman Hotchkiss who was on the car, sent to headquarters for help. A squad of po- licemen was sent to the spot to disperse the strikers.
 Lawyer M S. Towns, representing Peter McNulty of the firm of Wechsler & McNuIty this afternoon secured an order from Judge Gaynor to show cause why writ of mandamus should not issue to compel the Brooklyn City railway to operate its cars.
 Mr. McNulty Is losing money every day, and if the cars are not operated shortly he must discharge many em- ployes. Justice Gaynor made the or der returnable on Saturday morning,

STRICKEN WHILE SPEAKING.
The Duke of Argyle Fell at Political
 Meeting.

Glasgow, Jan 15.--While the Duke of Argyll was addressing political meet ing here this evening he suddenly be- came pale, his voice sank to a whisper and he reeled and fell insensible, into the arms of Lord Kelvin, one of the bystanders. The audience became greatly excited, some persons shouting "the duke has tainted" fetch him water" "gve him air, 'the duke is dead" etc.
 The duke shortly reopened his eyes, gazed vacantly around and slowly re- covered consciousness. He then asked friends to telegraph for his son, the Marquis of Lorne. His daughter, Lady Frances, was present. The duke was removed to Lord Kelvin's residence and three physicians were summoned to at- tend him. The physicians agreed that the dukes condition was critical and they decided to remain with him dur ing the night.
 At midnight pr. Anderson said that the duke had suffered an attack of syncope, there had been no return of the faintness. The doctors experienced great difficulty in restoring the patient S temperature,

The Diferential Duty on Sugar to be
 Abolished.

The Differential Duty on Sugar to be
 Abolished.
 Washington, Jan. 15.-The ways and means committee to-day by a strict party vote agreed to report favorably the bill abolishing the differential duty of 1-10 cent a pound on sugars imported from countries paying an export bounty. Those present at to-days meeting were Messrs. Wilson, Montgomery Bymun, Whiting, Stevens, Turner and Bryan, democrats; and Messrs. Reed, Hopkins and Dalzell, republicans
 The vote was preceded by discus sion, which consumed the greater part of the session. The republicans op- posed the bill. The contention was that by passing such a measure the United States would be acknowledging the claim of Germany that any legisla- tion she may make in her country re- lating to her people can compel us to change or modify our legislation re- specting American citizens or else break our treaty stipulations. The re- publicans contended that this legisla- tion was general and related to all bounty paying countries and thatif Ger many put herself in a position which did not entitle her to the consideration shown to other countries she must stand the consequences.
 MT. Bryan of Nebraska took the same view of the case, but on roll-call he voted with his party associates in favor of reporting the bill.
 To each member printed copy of a statement of the case, prepared by Sec retary Gresham in October last and embodying some of the secretary's cor. respondence with the German minister was given. This led to a sharp criti. cism of the foreign policy of the ad. ministration. The democrats insisted however, that the differential duty was unfair. Their argument was that as a result of this duty our amicable re. lations with Germany had been dis. turbed and that Germany had infiu. enced Austria-Hungary and other countries against the United States This led to fresh criticism of the policy of the state department, which was only ended by the motion to vote on reporting the measure,

ENGTNEER IS MESSING.
An Engine and Freight Cars Run Into "a
 River.

Boston, Jan. 15.-An engine and three cars of a freight train plunged into an open draw of the New York and New England railroad at South Boston to- night. The engineer is missing and is believed to have been drowned, but no one else was hurt It was about 11;3O o'clock, after the last passenger train had departed for the night, when the draw tenders, J. Rothrock, jr, and Abe E. Chandler. opened the draw to let lighter pass up the channel.
 According to their story, the danger signals were properly set at the time. Before the lighter had reached the draw a freight train in charge of En- glneer David McCalna and Fireman Stewart came pulling slowly out from the Boston yard, seeming not to heed the warning signals. As they approach ed the draw Stewart says the first in timation he had that anything was wrong waas when the engineer shouted for him to jump. Stewart did so and caught hold of one of the braces of the bridge just as the engine shot down ward into the water, followed by the three cars next behind it. Stewart was uniniured, but McCalna, it is believed did not have sufficient time to escape and was buried beneath the wreckage
 Just behind the engine was gandola car, then an oil car, then box car ano these were the only ones that made the plunge. The water at that point is about twenty feet deep and the engine is entirely submerged, excepting smal section of the boiler. The gondola cal stands obnquely up from the water, pre- venting the closing of the draw.
 Work will be pushed, however, and il is probable that by the time the regu' lar trains are due in the morning the track will be clear There is possibil ity that McCalna may have escaped and considering himself responsible fol the accident, has failed to show himself but there seems only the remotes chance of this being the fact. The draw itself was uninjured.

FOR GARBAGE CONTRACT.
SWAYNE HAS ALREADY BID-W.ANTS
 4 NER LAW.

Should be No Interference From Private
 Collectors and Asks That Their Licenses
 be Revoked--Dr. O'C 'ConnOr Says the Board
 Cannot Do It, but Contractor Swayne De-
 clares it Surely Can.
 The board of health met yesterday afternoon. Commissioners Blake, O'Con- nor. Manning, Fleischner and McNeil were present, as was also Garbage con- tractor Swayne. The important busi- ness before the board was the consider ation of the following contract from MT. Swayne:
 To the Hon. Board of Health:
 I, Waiter s. Swayne, will agree to furnish to the city of New Haven as many of my patent garbage carts as may be required to remove the garbage from said city, free, provided the city will deliver all the garbage at suitable places that I may select within rea- sonable distance from said city.
 Or will remove all the garbage from the entire city for the sum of $5,000, with the understanding that the said city is not under any circumstances to issue any license or permit to any other party to collect or gather any garbage In said city. Also that hotels, restau- rants or private houses shall not be per- mitted to sell or give away any garbage except to me or my agents. I will give a bond of sufficient amount to ensure satisfaction. Very respectfully yours,
 WALTER s. SWAYNE. MT. Swayne in his own behalf told the board that it was impossible to live under any other contract that the one he had submitted. He asked that all the sub-licenses in the city be revoked, so as to make the contract general and prevent interference by private collec- tors. Dr. O'Connor stated that it was | not within the power of the board to revoke the licenses, upon which the | present collector hotly retorted that he knew the points of law and he knew | also that the board could revoke the licenses if it so desired. He further called attention to the garbage laws in Boston, where the collection of gar bage was put in the hands of one man. There were no private collectors, and it was well known that Boston had as fine a system of any city in the country. | No action was taken in the matter. The commissioners are advertising for other bids. They will be received up to 4 o'clock of next Tuesday. The board | reserves the right to refuse any and all bids. Blanks can be obtained of the clerk.
