The Paris correspondent of the National In teihgencer. writing on the 18th ultimo. states that "the average price Of wheat in France, at the present moment, is thirteen francs eighty six centimes the hectolitre. The heciolitre is equivalentto very small fraction over two and five-sixths bushels of our measure; the franc to about eighteen and three-fourths cents; the centime is hundredth part of frame" This price is equivalent to ninety-one cents bushe. He adds table, giving the average price in the principal French markets from 1873 to the present year, made up from the informa- ton collected by the council general of COM merce and manufactures, whose session had just closed. From this, it appears that there have been only five years out Of seventeen in which the average ranged as high as one dollar and thiriy-two cents per bushel, which was the ay- erage price at Liverpool through the year l849. From the publications OF the English board of trade, we learn that the importation into Eng land, Of grain of all sorts during the year l849, was nearly double that of 1913, amounting to IL ,SS2 900 quarters-which supply was de- rived from the several foreign sources named rs follows.

A Number Of Firemen Killed and In jured BY the Falling of n Building. INDIANAPOLIS, March 17.-What at first seemed an insignificant fire in the Bowen Merrill book store this afternoon resulted in a catastrophe in which at least four men were killed and a dozen were wounded, some of whom will die. When the fire de- partment arrived it seemed at a loss to..lo- cate the fire and began pouring water into the building at the front when the seat of trouble was in the rear. For three hours the fight continued in this way and most of the spectators had left under the impress sion that the fire was out, when about $50 there was a terrific crash and the entire building, except the front wall, fell inward. At the time of the crash a number OF firemen, variously estimated at from eight to twenty, were on the roof of the building, and were buried in the deb ris which was piled forty feet high within the walls of the burned building. Immediately the work of rescuing the living and extri- eating the dead was begun by at least 500 volunteers, who, in addition to the unin- jured tiremen and a number of the police force, formed a strong corps of workers. At times their ears would be greeted by the groans of wounded underneath the ruins, and then the work would be pushed with renewed vigor. For three hours the forces labored to rescue the wounded and recover the dead. At this hour the following have been taken out dead: Geo. Faulkner, engine No. L; Geo. Glennan. fireman No. 10; Hess Glazier, substitute fireman; AL. Hoff- man, pipeman. The wounded were: A. Voltz, pipeman: Lew Rafert, fireman; Thomas Barrett, fireman; e. w. Neal, pipeman, Thomas A.

NEW YoRK, October 27-At no time has the canvass been so lively, and at no time have the Democrats been 90 conf dent Of success. A great number Of them are now gathered In the National Committee-rooms, 10 earnest and jubi- land conversation over the situation. Most of them have been speaking this evening at one Of the score Of meetings held in the city or heraabouts, and each told cheering multitudes and fiery enthu siasm for the soldier candidate. 1t is useless for Republicans to claim New York and New Jersey. Their Votes are surely for Hancock. The canvasses just finished show this to be true, and it is also attested BY the admissions Of the Republicans themselves, who this eve ming are beginning to talk about these States being close. That is virtual ad mission Of defeat. The widest Repub- llcans are only talking Of six thousand msjority in New York and one thousand in New Jersey. New York City's big registry can not be overcome The Re. publicans have never polled more than one-,hird of the city's vote on their greatest victories, and this year, since fully 200,0 votes should be cast, they can not trot out more than 81 1000 This will leave too big a margin for the Dem ocrats. The Republicans are forced to admit this, and turn their eyes to other States for Garfeld's votes. New Jersey is the 6rst, but they find no hope there. 1t has been many years since she gave Republican majority,and her working men have this year heer aroused to the dangers Of allowing Gar fed to ventilate' his Chinese cheap la Dor theories q. the head OF the Govern ment.

BITE oE A RArrLEsNAKE CURED IN Two Hours The Petersburg Express publish es the following from reliable correspond ent +: "A carpenter, while engaged few days ago in pulling down an old house, and in removing some of the rotten timbers near the ground, was bitten by rattlesnake.- In few moments his finger was swollen to four times it's natural size, and red streak commenced running up his hand and wrist. A deadly languor came upon him, and his vision grew dim, clearly indicating that the subtle poison that was coursing through his veins was rapidly approaching the citadel Of life. But remedy was tried merely by way Of experiment., which, to the surprise Of all present, acted like charm. the component parts Of which were onion, tobacco and salt, of equal parts, made into a poultice and applied to the wound and at the same time cord was bound tightly a. bout the wrist. En- two hours afterwards he had SO far recovered as to be able to re- sumo his work [ knew an old negro who cured boy that had been bitten by mad dog. by the same application.
