Union Republican Club.

A Union Republican club, number
ing over 300 members, many Of whom
are Vermonters, has recently been or
ganized in Washington, D. G. 1t en-
braces almost the entire United
States and is expected to be a leading
factor in the contest of 1896. Among
its members may be found the veter-
ans Of the Republican party who took
an active part in politics during the
days of the pro-slavery fight in Miss
ouri and the defeat of the Democratic
party in 1870. The object of the
club as formulated in the constitution
is to join in one common union per-
sons living there and in the various
states who are committed to and
bound by the platform of principles
of the National Republican party of
the United States. The members
pledge themselves to disseminate and
in every way promulgate the princi-
pies of the party throughout the
United States, by the distribution of
public documents and other political
literature, provide public speakers,
and in such other ways, after consul
tation, as may be deemed advanta-
geous and advisable. II is unneces-
sary to cite the manifold reasons call
ing for the organization OF a Republic
can club at the capital city. Suffice it
to say that Washington is the pivot;
all political campaigns are planned
within its borders; war cries Of victo-
ries originate there, and success is at
tanned when the proper and right
things are done. The Union Republi-
can club believes it has a vast and inn
portant mission to perform, and pro-
poses to work tremendously and en-
Enthusiastically with kindred organiza-.
lions throughout the length and
breadth Of the land.

Ninety-Nine Years Old.

The ninety-ninth birthday of Mrs
Emyle Hyde Grinnell was celebrated
in Colchester, Saturday, July eth, at
the residence of Mr.. and Mrs. Martin
Fowler. Relatives were present from
Georgia, Fairfax, Burlington and
Craftsbury. AT dinner the same
china was used as when Mrs. Grinnell
was sixteen years old. So remarkable
an occasion, it is hoped, may be re-
peated next year at the hundredth
anniversary.
Mrs. Grinnell's old home was in
Georgia, where she helped found EN-
manuel church, being one Of its most
prominent members, as well as of the
whole community. Her father was
Asahel Hyde, and her mother was one
of the old Robinson family of Ben
nington, so famous in the early his
tory of Vermont. Mrs. Grinnell is
now the Oldest living person OF those
born in Bennington.

Thomas G.. Tuner OF Grand Rapids
is one Of the oldest newspaper men in
southwestern Michigan. On Aug.
81, he will be IS years old. He was
born in Waitsfcld, Washington coun-
ty. He was in the Union army and
spent time in Libby prison. lie has
seen every president from John
Quincy Adams down. He was at one
time proprietor of the Clevelan d
Leader.
A serious accident occurred at the
high railroad bridge Thursday after
noon at Ludlow. AS one Of the pieces
of the bridge, weighing seven tons,
was being hoisted to its place the APP
paratus gave way and Peter Fox, one
Of the workmen, fell so feet onto the
timbcrs in the stream below. He was
picked up and taken to the house of
Mr.. Powers. DR.. Lane was called and
says that Fox is badly bruised, but
thinks he will recover. Fox is about
80 years old and lives at Rochester, N.
Y.
The generosity OF SheIburne has
this year cropped out in new direc-
ton. The new Catholic church is
this time the object, and for many of
our people it is most praiseworthy.
Some $4,000 have been pledged, with
DR.. and Mrs. w. S. Webb, John B.
DuBuc, Ex-Gov. J. l.. Barstow and
Mr.. III. Geer among the contributors.
1t is proposed to build an edifice
costing some $4,000, which will be at
once an ornament to the village and a
credit to the church. About 800
people will be accommodated, and
work will be begun at an early date
so that the building may be enclosed
before winter.
Near North Bennington lives Mrs.
Honora Mccarthy, who, if she lives
till next February, will be loo years
old. She was born in Cork parish,
Ireland, "the first Friday in Lent,
February, 1890" She married Dem
mis- Mccarthy in the place of her
birth when young woman, and had
two children. She came to this coun-
try many years ago. Her daughter,
Abigail, died in Ireland and her son,
Dennis, who is about 20, owns the
farm where his mother lives. Ho-
nora's father and mother both lived
to be over 100 years old, and both
died in the place Of her birth. She
was one Of Ia children and is the only

Red uction of Wages.

NrTTA YUMA, Miss, January 3.-A
movement, which seems destined to be-
come popular among the planters of
Mississippi, was inaugurated at plant
ers' meeting in this town. Prominent
agriculturists of Delta were present, and
resolutions were passed fixing the pay OF
the best male labor at 80 cents per day
and the best class of female labor at 4O
cents per day. Not more than 81 pei
month with rations will be paid the best
laborers, and crops should be laid
by at maximum expenditure of $3.50
per acre. Clubs will be formed at once
throughout the State, having for their
motto the reduction of wages. Colonel
John R. Cameron, Captain John Willis
and DR.. A. ]. Phelps, three of the most
prominent men in the State, are giving
the movement their Endorsement.

SAY CARLISLE BROKE FAITH.
Report Current That Wall Street Has
Asked His Removal.


CHICAGO, January A special to the
Daily News from Washington says:
Leading New York bankers have made
a formal demand on the President for
the removal OF Secretary Carlisle. The
request was made by ]. Pierrepont Nor
gan, who came on from New York for
that purpose. Mr.. Morgan was the chief
factor in the late syndicate which took
the last issue OF bonds. There have been
many informal demands for Secretary
Carlisle's retirement coming from Wall
street in the last year, but this is the
first time the movement has taken an
organized form. New York fnanciers
charge that the Secretary broke faith
with them on the recent bond issue by
springing his currency plan just after he
disposed OF the bonds and depressing the
price on the market, resulting in the
dissolution of the syndicate. The Pres
ident informed Secretary Carlisle to-day
for the first time of Morgan's modest re-
quest, and indicated he had no intention
OF asking Secretary Carlisle to quit"

PLATE-eLAss WAR.

There Will be Cut Where the Jobbers
Expected an Advance.
CHICAGO, January 4.-The Tribune to-
morrow will say: A plate-glass war is
on, and it may result disastrously to
some Of the jobbers of the country, who
have been caught in the trap" Nego-
tiations have been pending for several
months for combination of plate-glass
works, and the deal was announced to
go into effect January l. An immediate
advance in plate glass was to take place,
and on the strength Of this assurance
the jobbers bought up every foot OF glass
in the country for speculation. Now
comes the announcement that the deal
has fallen through, and that the present
prices would suffer another 20 per cent
cut. As result decidedly ugly feeling
prevails in all branches of this industry,
the manufacturers asserting that they
are operating at loss and the jobbers
insisting that they have been mulcted.

CROPS IN RUINS.
Florida VIII Lose Millions of Dollars
by the Cold Weather.

Florida VIII Lose Millions of Dollars
by the Cold Weather.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, January 2.-Three
million dollars will hardly cover the loss
in Florida from the cold of the past sew
enty-two hours. The mercury dropped
20 degrees above zero last night and the
cold completed its work of destruction.
The pineapple plantations are ruined as
well as the oranges and the winter vege-
table crops. Next years orange crop
win be shortened by 100000 boxes,
which means an additional loss of ST.
100000 to the growers and the trans
portation companies. The direct and
incidental losses by this spell will ag-
gregate $1,000, 600 in the next two years.
Last night at O'Clock the mercury was
at Al degrees.
The mercury went down to IA degrees
above zero at the signal station in this
city Just before sunrise this morning,
this record being degree colder than
the temperature during the great freeze
Of 1886 and the lowest since 1885. The
thermometer at the station is 100 feet
hD0V6 Nfouuu bkAA tAS bAiioOO iCnuihSc
about town average from 10 to degrees
lower. Reports from Titusville, Tampa,
Oe8la, Gainesville, Palatka and Sanford
indicate the mercury dropped to about
Is above zero in these localities. The
orange and vegetable crops are practical
ly ruined. The best estimate places the
number Of oranges on the trees at fully
1900, 900 boxes and officials of the Florida
Fruit Exchange in this city think fully
1000, 900 boxes have been frozen either
wholly or in part. If this estimate is
correct, the remaining 100000 boxes
will bring fabulous prices. These re-
ports cannot be verified until tonight
or tomorrow, but the best informants
in fruit matters say 1.-THE jig is up with
the oranges of 1S93-94" Ice formed on
the streets of Jacksonville this morning,
The snap is not without compensation,
however, as IL has largely killed the
scale, one of the deadliest orange pests,
and exterminated another, the white
fly, which was becoming active in some
groves and threatened the State.

SAN Francisco, January 4.-Plans for

War is declared by the federation against
dives, side entrances to saloons, gam
bling and municipal corruption. A Leg

the Lexow organization, is a possible
outgrowth of the federation, which was
organized by Rev. James Cumming

The London Times Review OF Last
Years Business.

The London Times Review OF Last
Years Business.
LONDON, January 3.-The Times will
say tomorrow in its trade review of last
year:
While the possibilities OF year age
were only partially realized, trade in the
aggregate may be said to have turned
the corner in series of ten years. The
hinderance of enterprises is mainly to
be ascIibed:
First, to the depreciation of silver
and the tariff wrangle in America, which
when ended failed to give trade a con-
tinuous impetus.
Second, to foreign competition,
which, however, is not increasing, the
main injury arising from our establish
ing manufactures in growing countries
and damaging similar ones at home. q,
Third, to the disappointing harvest
and low prices for grain.
On the other hand, there have been
evidences of sounder trading. The fail
ures were fewer, and the capital in
VOWED was lower than before in recent
years. We enlarged our exports and i'm
ports on the whole, although adverse re-
suits due to the extreme dullness are re-.
ported in some quarters. Hopeful views
are now current. They are mainly di.
rected to the early Improvement of the
American markets on a more assured
basis, secured by the tariff settlement
and better financial position. There
is expectation also OF betterment in
South America and OF some recovery in
Australia and the East"
