SWEET WINE PRODUCERS
Have Agreed Upon Plan of Co.
Operation
By (which They Hope to Dispose Of the
Hold-Over and New Crops at
Fair Figures

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. s.-The sweet
wine men have practically come tng ether.
A plan Of Gu operation has been adopted
and has received SO many signatures that
Its agreementto by 90 per cent of the pro-
uucers seems assured.
After the preliminary meeting last
month, attended by about 80 Per cent of
the large growers and makers OF sweet
VINE. a general gathering of large and
small pro- ucers was held at the rooms
of the beard of trade, l.. P. Drexler pre-
siding.
1t is estimatf thai nearly three-fourths
of the gallonage north of the Tehachepi
was represented, while from the south,
which constitutes about one-sixth of the
interest, letters were received promising
adhesion to a plan of corporation. The
plan as submitted met with general ap.
proval and was signed by nearly all of the
sweet wine men present. Copies were
ordered printed and will be circulated IN
the interior to obtain the remaining
names.
In brief 1t provides for the deading by
the sweet wine makers of their leftover
stock and this years production to q
b ,aId of seven trustees, who are to have
the exclusive r1git To sell the production.
This amount of wine left over was 1, 200
900 gallons Of total product of 4,l74, 900
gallons. This years crnp is. by conserva-
tive estimates about 65 per cert larger, so
that about 5000, 900 gallons will have to
bs marketed. -Four of the trustees were
elected. They are l.. P. Drexler of the
Fresno Vineyard company. Frank West Of
George West & Son and of the Sierra
Vista COMPANY, d. Henshaw Ward OF the
Notoma Vineyard company and H. Tre-
velyan of the Barton estate company.
Three vacancies were left to ne filled ny
representatives of the south and other
laIge interests. AS soon as the required
number CT signatures to the plan are re-
celved and these positions are filled the
trustees will meet and organlze. They
will dispose of the crop from time to
time, as seems most dcsira ple AMI make
pro rata returns to the sweet wine max
ers. If the plan meets with success it will
probably be extended from year to year.

PITTSBURG, Nov. S.-''The results Of
the election of 1895 make it almost Ger.
tain that the nominee of the next Repub.
lican national convention will be elected
president. said Calvin s. Brice to an
Associated Press reporter on the eastern

sican the last election has at least added
very much to the interest that will be felt

"Well, Mr.. Mckinley is q charming
gentleman, able, popular and probably
The most magnetic of any of the candi.
dates"
To the reporters suggestion that the
public would like to know the senator's
explanation of the result IN Ohio, Mr..
Brice said: "Ohio did just what other
states did. The result in Ohio was no
different from what it was in New York,
Mary land or Kentucky. People seem
dss tisfied with the general policy of the
Democratic party, and no local argu-
ment has any effect on national im-
pulse. In Ohio we did our best, but it
was useless. Chairman Anderson of the
Democratic committee did excellent
work. but the odds were too great. Gen.
eral Foraker will be elected to succeed
me as senator, and what I do does not
concern the public"
The reporter asked Brice 1t President
Cleveland's policy was to blame for the
wholesale Democratic disaster. The sem
ator hesitated a moment and then said:
"No, don't think Cleveland is to be
blamed personally for the tidal wave;
still, he will have to bear his share of the
blame as being part of the national Or
ganization and leader OF the Demons attic
party"
How about Gorman?"
"Gorman's all right. Your man Quay
| was beaten worse than Gorman was last
Tuesday, and he seems to be doing pretty
we'll. No; Senator German is not ami
hilated. and the man who thinks he is IL

they had no suspicion OF what was going
on until the odor Of escaping gas was
detected. This led to an Investigation

Cost of Living In Paris.

An allie statistician has been esti-
mating the cost Of living in Paris at the
present time and has compared it with
that of 40 years ago. He shows that in
tho fifties an average middle class fam
lily could do with budget Of 100000,
or e400, annually. That did not mean
luxury, bat 1t was sufficient fer comfort
and required no economical engineering
for the purpose Of making both ends
meet. Nowadays the case is different,
and an official with wife and three
children dependent on 0,000f year
has to work miracles of saving in order
to avoid getting into debt Accordingly
in less than half a century the condi'
tons of life in Paris have been com
pletely modified. 1t is no exaggeration,
in fact, to say that prices have doubled,
and with them has increased the desire
for more luxurious mode of living
than that led by the average Parisian Of
the fifties. The statistician has revealed
nothing new, but his figures serve to
emphasize the fact that the Freach cap
ital is the most expensive place of resi-
dence in Europe. --LcReon Telegraph.

Erelesa Fish From a Well.

Workmen engaged in putting down
an eight inch artesian well on the ranch
of Bnfford & Williams near Ora Granda,
San Juan valley, southern Colorado, had
an odd experience few days since. The
well had been drilled TO ths depth OF
1SS feet when all of a sudden the tools
appeared to penetrate a cavern filled
with water under high pressure. Drills,
rods, ropes and pulleys We're thrown
high in the air and scattered in all di-
rections by the torrent Of water snouted
from the opening. The excitement was
intense for some minutes, but whaT
quiet was again restored it was foun6
that the ground was literally covered
with small eyeless fish, white lizards
and clear colored bugs that had been
forced from their homes in the pent up
reservoir beneath. On careful examina-
ton it was found that the water had a
temperature of IS degrees and wai
strongly impregnatoi with medicinal
salts. ST. Louis Republic.
