I The following Is a description or the accI I
'dent ua related by Bridge Captain Charles '
Brenner : "I was on duty at the time. I
was about 7:20 : o'clocle when a boat coming
UI the river whistled for the drawbridge. I
then gave the plgnals 10 Engineer Paterson
and the gate guanls I shut both gates at the
north approach mYfelf , ran up the red lighten
on the pole and hung the red lanterns on the
gales These red lights , as 19 well known ,
signify danger-that the draw Is open. Then
1 gave the engineer the signal to draw the
wedge and also gave the plgnal of one itoh . I
which was the order to swing the bridge
I
The bridge had swung clear around and the I
boat had approached almost undel I when I
was dumbfounded to see a large combination
ptreet car , with at least twenty passengerl
inside , slowly but surely approaching. and
only about forty reel away. I cried out with
all my might : 'Stop , Stop , for God's sake ,
atop that car
,
, WAS TRYING TO STOP.
: "The molonnan waR endeavoring to stop
. the car , but Lt seemed that his efforts were
of no avail , for the car came steadily on and
crashul Into the iron gates . whIch gave s'ay ,
. all ( In a second the car had gone over the
prcipice. Just al the car struck the gates
the frightened motorman jumped and [ foil on
the brhle" . As oun as the car went over I
leaned over the bridge and cried lo the men
on the lug and vessel psssln through under
the bridge to notify the Ilolce and ambulances
I I of the awful accident when the )
I went up the river 1 rw the
\ . 1 , motorman about len minutes after
the accident , but he disappeared 1.horly after
t j 'ard. No blame cm be attached 10 those In
\ t I I charge or the bridge The accIdent 19 en-
I f 'tir ly UH ratleor the cr' or the motor car. " !

' mAde the terrible plunge were C , A. Fergu-
--1 , son.of Parma , 0. , John Sorgler ' or 731 Woodland -
land avenue ; lank- Peters o lover , G. Q

i I Alt jumped and were saved leler says
the car was going slow ali that he heard
sOllie one cry out : "Stop the car. stop the
cr . " Ito also says there was a woman on
the , } latorm , and that she jumped safety
away but Immediately crle out that her
daughter was In the car.
John Sorgler related his experience a fol-
lows : "On nearing the draw on the viaduct
I noticed the conductor leave the car and i
pull a chain whIch , I supposed , operated a I
r . safety devIce In the track , The conductor
waved his hand and the car moved slowly
forward. I first heard a cry : 'Stop , stop '
Then a little man standing nearer the car
steps ! thanl'seJ yelled 'Jump ' I felt the rear
part or the car begin 10 raise , tip and \lndly \
! jumped over the plaUorm railing , not knowIng -
! Ing how or where I would land I picked
I myself up about six feet from thin edo or I
the open tiraw . and picked m ) ' hat from I

, among several others lying aboul There :
I were three other men on the plalorm be-
aides lysolf , One wore glasses and an-
other , the one who yelled 'Jump , ' had on a
mackintosh. It..camo . through my , mind that
I\.alo )
lho car was going down , as I saw the Iron
gate the mInute I jumped I was leaned
against the door jamb , but tlred my bead
when sortie one on the viaduct cried 'Stol '
I knew no enl In the car al the itme. There
was an awful crash when the car slrucle , "
At 3 o'clock a diver who ) has been ut work
on the wreck says he has found no more
bodlea and ho Is inclined , tl believe that not
snore thar one more body can still be In the

Several traveling men seated In the lObby
of the Millard were discussing the effect of
using tobacco , the occasion for the dlscouro
hellg offered by a shm-bul young man en-
tering the room smoking a paper cigar.
"I never smolud one ol thoEe things , and
I never wil , " said the large man hulling ut
a peloclo ,
" \\'el , I always smoke them and lever a
cigar. A cigar IS too slrong for me , " remarked -
marled : the Ilm young man with a leglee ,
or calmness that brought a blush to the
florid face of the representative ol thE platE
glass trust. "You see It Is this wa ) ' . You
fellows who . have never used this 'perlect
type of a perfect pleasnr ' as one who should
b , nameles called I , 10 not know Its effects.

sJollt1 ' cigarettes for a great many yeurs "
"Don't you ever wunt lo quit ? Why don't
you take the cure ? "
"I dou't take the cure beaueo I don't want
to and don't have la Do you want to know
something about tobacco using ? "
" \\'el yes , " said the florid man
"It Is a bad habit . but It Is not bad for
the commonly thought roson. , At one time
I was Intmalely associated with Powers &
Vm'eightmmian manufacturing chemists ol Phil-
alel1hla , " said the s. b. y. m. "In regard
to the nicotine contained In tobacco , there
Is but one way to extract It , und that Is
by slecpllg I or by soaking II , upon the same
Ilrlnclple that ono extracts the favor and
t1lle from tea leaves or cafeine , I you
bur lea the :5101ee : does not contain theme

cigar the products are hot lmolee and nlco-
tine . The products gotten from the combustion -
ton of tobacco are principally pyidine and
carbonic acid gas. In a cigar , and also In
a clgarele. there Is another product , how-
ever , which Is like that given off by a hard
coal store and known as carbon monoxide
When carbon dioxide , or carbonic acid gas Is
Inhaled I Is Immediately exhaled ; but when
carbon monoxide , a product of Incomplete
burning , Is inhaled It forms a fixed com-
pound In the blood and has to be got rid of
by sonic othel' mean9 , than by the lungs
"In 1 cigarette there Is less nicotine than

spected at the sllughler houses was considerably .
slderably over 18.000,000 , an Increase of
more than 5,600,000 over time previous year.
During the year anle.mortem Inspection was
also made ol 6,000,000 animals. The cost of
Inspection was reduced to 1,1 cents per
unitnal In 18D Inspecton cost 4 * cents per
animal , and In 1891 Jt cost H cents Over
1:60,00 animals , cattle and sheell , were 1mm-
spectel , for foreign markets , of which 676,000
were shIpped abroad Over 45,000,000 pounds
of pork was Inspected mltrosCollcaly and
exporter , as against 35,000,000 In 1894 amid
23,000,000 pounds In 1893. Of the umount
exportcd last ) Ear , nearly 23,000,000 pounds
wml to Germany , and over 9,000,000 pounds
to France . This inspection Involved the
placing of over 1,900,000 specimens under I
the rmmicroscoie The coat of each examina-
ton was less than [ cent , or for each
pound of meal 2 mils , a considerable re-
ducton over previous years .
Lasses of cattle In transit 10 Europe were
greater than In 1894 , being respectively for
189 und 1894 , 0,62 and 0.31 per cent. Over
30.000 cars \ era Inspected for Texas lever
at quarantne pens during time quarantine
season , nearly 9,000 carloads of cattle beIng
InspEcled also In transit4 and over 28,000
cars were cleaned and dlslnrected. Deshles
over 116.000 cattle from the non-Inrectcd dls-
trlcls or Texas were Inspected for shlpmenl
to 10rthern slales. The secretary urges their
importation free of duty as advantageous lo
feeders having a surplus of led and to the
consumers , who outnumber the producers.
CoIPETTORS [ GROWING UI'
Much space Is devoted to discussing the
opportunities for American meat products In
foreign countries. Of 311,000 Ions rece\'ol
at the London central meat market In 1891
71,000 tons were American , while nearly
60,000 came from Australia. The American
proporlon has not ben maintained during
1895. In the Imports or live cattle to Great
Britain the United States and Canada had n
practical monopoly until the last two ) 'eal9 ,
SIce 1893 Argentlna'e shlpmenls have
gmeatiy Increased During the first
night mouths ol the year the sblll-
menls amounted to over 2.OQO head. ,
Alhough the meat of the South American
cattle Is not as salable a& the American ,
the business Is profitable and likely to Increase -
crease American cattle , though slaughlered
Itcr landing , sel at prices equal to the
average paW for Drilsh carcasses
The . eXfurt or American horses to Gre'l
B.lnln , has IncreasEd steadily , having moro
than doubled since 1893 , amounting In the .
first eight months or 189 10 22.7(5 head ,

, DAD HEPQTATtN DISASTROUS.
Hererrln" to our Ilall\ng In the foreign
dairy market , the eecnlary warns shippers
of the consequences of theIr methods , adding :
"We have here a graph'l ' illustration of the
disastrous effects In the lard trade of . dise-
garding the tastes or consumers and of acquiring -
quiring a bad reputation. "
The secretary says the . crop reporting work
Is time subject of constant critcism , As at
liresent organIzed It can bardly fail lo be
otherwl , though more satisfactory at present -
enl than at any previous time . The secre-
tary thinks the duly of reporting the acre-
ago of staple crops In each stale on June 1 ,
each year might be Imposed upon the aUlhor- ,
Ites or the agrcullrl colleges and stations
In consideration of the annual appropriations
they receive from ths national treasury
Such acreage being givEn , and the character
ol the sol known with time climatic condi-
tons publshed daily by the weather bu-
reau , approximations as to the yield of each
crop could probably be compled with more
accuracy titan under the present method.
Of time savings In the depatment he says

flFi'UflLICAN NOMINATION IN 1880.
Senator Simernian Speaks of time ro-
pimbhi ca mi vres idenmtlal noniiaation In
1880 , Grant hind returned from his
trip aroimnd the world , lie mnade
no opemi tleclaratiotm of his cammdimlacy , but it
i'as understood that lie was 'ery willing
to accept time office of president again. ills
friende openly avowed their imitentlon to support -
port him , and "anawereti time popular oh4ec-
tion against time third terni by time fact that
a term imld Intervened since lie last held
the office , " Mr , Ihlaino was aiso an avowed
cammdldate , amid Sherman's nammie was mmmcmi-
tioned also , and it was generally supposetl
that one of the three would be the mmomnineo
of time republican convention. Simermimami says
that Ime was conmpOiied to imiro an nUb-a iti
Wau'lmingtomm and there two of his personal
friends ran his campaign bureau for the
mmonilmnatiomm , lie Sal's that , lie diti this so that
his duties as secretary of this' treasury nmight
not imiterfere with tIme work of his candidacy -
didacy , lie declares that he was at once
charged with all sorte of nilademeanors of
which he w'is not guilty , for instamice , that
ime was a flonman Cathmoiic , and that ho used
the patronage of his office to aid lila canvass -
vass for time mionihmiation. Ills book testifies
that hmo must lmavo written yards of cx-
plannmtory letters at that time , lie went
on to Oimio and had a conetmllatiomi tlmere with
his friemids , 110 hind an immtrview 1thi Gomi-
oral Garfield , anti ime , says that Garfield expressed -
pressed an earnest desire to secure his mionmi-
natiomm , anti vanted to be a delegate at large ,
so that lie might aid Simernmisn effectively.
Garfield had just been chosen , with little
or no opposition , United States senator to
fill time place of Allen 0 , Timurmuan , whose
lerm expired Marcim 'I , 1381. Sherman talked
to Governor Charles Foster chute , and as a re-
suIt William Dennison , James A. Garfield ,
Charles Foster , and Warner M. Bateman
were mnada delegates at large. Shermnaim says
that tIme sentinment in his favor was daily
Increasing. Ho was nonmtnated imi time cotm-
vention by Garfield , but the Ohio delegation
was split , nine of the delegates voting for
Bhaimie , thirty-four for Shernman , amid one for
Edmunds. Sherman speaks of time resulting
nomination of Garfield iii this fashiomi :
"It is probable that if I imad received time
uniteti vote of time Ohio dele.gatlomi I would
have been nominated , as my relations with
both Gemmeral Grant ammd lilt. Blame were of a
friemmdly character , but it Is hardly vorthm
while to conimemit on what mnight have been.
'l'imo course of time Ohio delegation was the
subject of severe comminment , amid perhajs of
unfounded suspicion of perfidy on time vart
of somne of the delegates. "
Shermnamu suspected Foster for sommme tmmne ,
but Foster protested that ime had been square ,
and Sherman rephiemi to hminm , saylmmg timat tie
bellved him , In this letter Shmermiman says-
"The nomnimmatomm of Garfield is emmtirely silt-
isfactory to mae , The only neimade that rests
on this reeling is time fact that Garfield weht
there by my selection to represent nie and
conies from time commventIomi with time honor
that I sought. "
OPINION OF GARFIELD.
Shermnan vent off on a short trip for roe-
reatiomi , and wimlie in New York he received
two letters from Gum-field , botlm relating to the
lfl'ogrea of time cammvnss , and asking Slier-
mmman'mm opiniomu of lila letter of accelmtammcc' .
Garfiohul had been mmommiimmated on June 2 ,
John Sherman ment Gartielml iml first letter
cml July 19. In this letter Simermmman simys :
"I hear differemmt stories about Conkling ,
hut believe that In duo timmie tie will do wimat
ime can , though lila immfiuomice is greatly overrated -
rated , A too active support by imini wommlti

Sherman insisted that this nomnimmmtiomi : of
