A MONTH OF ACCIDENTS.
The first month of the year has boei
remarkable for the number of accl
dents accompanied by loss of life
The Milwaukee horror , quickly fol
lowed by the Polish holocaust and th
fire at the Planter's in St. Louis , enl ;
preceded by n wrok the accident 01
the Southern Pacific and the frightfu
matino di a lor of Saturday off th
English coast. Within two weeks a to
tal of 803 HVCB have boon reported a
lost In five accidents. The record I
almost without precedent. Ores
carelessness fa given as the ciuso o
three of thoao horrors. The burnini
of the Nowhall JJouso is general ! ;
hollovod to have t case of incondlai
lain whllo the reports are coDtliotini
as to the responsibility for the foun
derlng of the Oimbrla , The colllaioi
took plcco in a fog nnd the ovidenc
nhowa that the engines of the ateatne
were running at less than half epue
when the fatal crash camo. 0 trlng t

spot whcro the bow of the Sultan or
torod the oldo of the ill-fated steamei
the vcsiol filled before the ha !
dressed passengers realized the aitut

down carrying with her nearly fou
hundred and fifty aonla. Since th
loss of the Villo dn Ilavro of th
French line nlno years ago no atcan
ship disaster of equal magnitude h :
boon chronicled.
The loss of the Olmbtia will donb
loss induce renewed discussion of th
safety which the compartment ayatoi
is supposed to glvo to aoagoing vet
sols. The Oily of Brnaaolls whic
same wooka ago sank oif the Morsoj
happily with no tuoh dontrnotion c
Ufa oa that which attended the loss <
the Oimbrla , foundered under ncarl
similar conditions. The water tigt
bulkheads at the very moment who
most needed were found to bo opor
just as they were In the Hamburg
line steamer on last Saturday inor :
ing. '
Theoretically , the division of a vci
sol's hull into a aeries of separat
rooms each hermetically scaled an
capable of sustaining whatever woigl :
of water may bo poured into then :
provides a certain tafety from ace
don's of leak springing or colliaior
The necessities of freight storage
however , have induced stoamshl
builders to depart from the origin :
plan , by cutting communicating dooi
Into the compartments which are auj
posed to bo sealed when the cargo I
finally ate < rod. Several yeon ago i
the CBBO of the Guion steamer Mor

through her watertight bulkhoadi
but auch instances are rare. la nearl
every reported oaao of collision o :
the BOB , the doors Into the compail

valno of the bulkhead system has boo
entirely doatroyod.
It la natural to look the stable doc

country in now busily engaged in dii
cu&aing improved tire escapes , an
congrus will probably bo Importune
to pass a law throwing greater oafc
guards around our traus-atlantl

monta before the Bailing of VOSBO

but no law can prohibit oflioora froi

force upon other countries the paenaf

a ( law compelling its adoption t

results. But after all , as in the cai

ANOTHER FRENCH SCARE.
The Floquet resolution exiling thi
French imperialists and legitimist
will probably gain additional auppor
to-day in the chamber of dopulici
owing to the real or alleged revelation :
regarding the uprising planned bj
the Oomto do Ohambord In aid cf hii
pretensions as the successor of Loai
XVI to the throne of Franco. Parii
on Saturday wen thrown into a fevc :
cf excitement by the news that West
ern Fr uco was virtually under arms
that thirty-two legiona of 1,000 met
each were mustering in aid of thi
Bourbon pretender and thatLaVcndoi
the homo of insurrection aad o
Catholic loyalty was rising in dofons
of the claims of his Christian majoat ;
Henry V , King of Franco.
Conservative opinion in Paria i
inclined to discredit the rumor. Th
London proas without exception ac
count for the report as a well plannoi
attempt to raise a acaro at the expons
of the legitimists to push Floquet1
proposal through the chamber of dope
ties and to compel the resignation c
the Orloanlst princes from the arm )
where they have always been element
< f discontent. It cannot bo donio
that the Count do Ohambord haa neve
yet relinquished his hopes of anccet
lion to the throne as the chief of th
older branch pf the Bourbon and th
rightful heir of Charles X. Once bs
fore , In Vendee was called upon t
assist him in his pretentious to th
throno. In 1832 his mother , th
Countess do Berri , landed at JVIsi
sollles , returning from the exile Int
which aha waa forced at the abdicatio
of Charles X. , and mailing her way t
LiVondoo Buooedod.in rallying a foi
Catholic adherents In support of ho
son's clnlui upon the crown. The in
surroctlon was promptly subdued b ;
Louis Phililppo and the countess ai
rested and imprisoned and a yea
later released. Since his majorlt
the Count do Ohambord haa content o
hltnaolf with the silent homage of hi
immediate friends without active !
asserting hla claims to the thron
through an appeal to arms. There ar
grounds for the belief that the legit :
mists have been greatly encourage
by the temporary panic into whio
the republic was thrown by the deat
of Qambotta , and that outside prei
sure may hare forced their head t
assort hia personality , but the poi
elbiiity of a general rising with a fore
cf man armed , and equipped an
ready to oppouo the Immense standin
army of the republic is scarcely crod
bio. However , the canard , if it bo
canard will furnish additional nrgt
monta for the republican Loft to fore
through ther bill against dynast :
pretenders.
