Ex-Governor John P. St. John and t?.o Presidency. EOILER EXPLOSION IN MILWAUKEE. i Chicago, 111., November 28.—Ex-Governor I 3ohn U. St. John, c.f Kansas, is in the city ■ for the purpose of attending a meeting' of the rational committee of the prohibition party, to | be hold next wee!:. The meeting is called to I fill a vacancy, caused by the death of the j chairman, Hon. J. B. Finch, and to fix a timo I and place for holding the next national con- I vention. "The result of the recent state elections | has been very gratifying to us,” said Mr. St. | John. “The fact is, th: ’ we are the only party i that is increasing in numbers or lias any fight I in it. The two old pai ties are. at a standstill | because they have no particular principle to I fight for, while we are fighting for morality and right. We urc no longer standing up just to ba counted, but we are fighting to win.” “Shall you again boa candidate for presi dent ?” “No, sir, eniphatically, no. Under no cir cupistances will I allow my name to. go before the convention and it is too early yet to tell you from whoie we may choose our standard bearer.” “Are you satisfied with the workings of pro hibition in Kansas?” “Perfectly. I think any candid person, who compared the condition of our prohibition state with that of any license state could not bu« be convinced that prohibition could I and does prohibit. In Kansas country towns, you will see no saloon sign upon every other door and the people will be found to bo" indus trious, prosperous, contented and happy—con stantly advancing in wealth and intelligence. High license is a fraud and a sham.” A Shocking Accident. Milwaukee, November 28.—A shocking ac cident occurred at the Kirby house this morn ing—a boiler used for heating water exploding, entirely wrecking the rear end of the building, burying a number of people beneath the ruins, fatally wounding several and, it is feared, kill ing others outright. The explosion occurred at 8:30. The boiler which exploded was a hot water boiler behind the kitchen range. The explosion blew out a portion of the rear wall of the building, thirty feet in width and ex tending from the ground to the floor of the fourth story. One end of the dining room was wrecked, all tables being knocked over and dishes smashed. Most of the guests had fin ished breakfast. Among those who remained, a panic reigned, but as far as known none of the guests were hurt. The kitchen of the hotel was completely wrecked. There were about a dozen girls in the room at tlie time and all were buried beneath the mass of brick and mortar. The fire department was on the scene with in a minute after the explosion. The follow ing girls were taken out from the ruins badly injured: Anna Kennedy, assistant cook; Car rie Olsen, dining room girl; Julia Fieldmeyer, dining room girl; Nora Doughertv. dining room girl; Mary Arbuckle, pastrycook. All were so badly injured, mostly J>y bruises, that Hr. Marks said he could not"tell whether they would live or not. Frank Hempel, head cook, is missing. Also, Mrs. E. M. Gage, assistant cook. The ruins are being searched in the hope of finding them, and otherswho may be buried therein. Liunie Thompson, a girl emproyed in the Sentinel bindery, across the alley, was badly cut about the head by flying glass that was blown in by the explosion. Mr. Beckwith, one of the proprietors of the hotel, who was in the rear part of the building, near where the explosion took place, was hurt in the head by a flying missile, which knocked him down. He is able to be about. “ An alley back of the hotel is piled to the depth of four or five feet with debris from the wrecked building. The north wall of the din ing room was blown in for a distance of 15 or 20 feet. The firemen got water upon the ruins in time to extinguish the flames which started before they had gamed much headway. The accident was probably caused by nie freezing of the feed pipe supplying the boiler with water. Tobacco Culture in Florida. Jacksonville, Fla., November 25.—To bacco, before the war, was one of the princinal products of west Florida. Since the war it has been abandoned for long staple cotton. It has been discovered, recently, that Florida leaf, when properly grown and cured, equals in quality that of Cuba and Sumatra. Much of this year’s crop sold at from twenty to fifty cents a pound, averaging thirty. A New York syndicate has bought ten thousand acres of land in Gadsden and Columbia counties, and •will plant over one thousand acres in tobacco during the coming year. Much interest is felt in the subject throughout the state. A Georgia Lady in Politics. Chicago, November 30.—The national cen tral committee of the prohibition party met today in Battery D armory. There were probably 500 persons present during the day. The principal objects of the meeting were to select a successor to the late John B. Finch, chairman of the committee to select a time and place for the holding of the national convention, and to discuss ways and means for carrying on the campaign. The treas urer’s report showed that .SI,OOO had been paid out for Governor St. John’s campaign ex penses. The national committee as arranged embraces L. C. Calisin, of Alabama; Rev. F. F. Watkins, of North Carolina; J. W. Smith, of Tennessee; B. Cranfill, of Texas, and Frank Burt and J. D. Carscadden, of West Virginia. No other southern state is represented in the list furnished for publication. The meeting was more like a Sunday-school conuention than a political convention, until a discussion arose on a motion to make Airs. Lawrence Lord a legal delegate from the state of Geor gia. Georgia was not represented, except by this lady, who has been in Chicago for three months, and who has caused many to think she had changed her residence. The subject was brought up by Airs. Lord herself, requesting that she be appointed a member of the national committee. A gallant member of the committee made a motion to that effect, which immediately plunged the convention into a turbulent discussion. Some in-listed that there was no prohibition party in Georgia ami, therefore, nothing to be repre sented. Others were in favor of admitting the lady because she was a woman, and took so much interest in the work. At th: \ Mrs. Lord arose and in a clear voice gave the gentleman a S ’ourging. "I stand heroasa representative'’* said she, “and not :i .a woman. In this work, I wan’ it nnd' rstacd, woman stands on an equal footing with men. | Applause.] By-and-by we will vote with men. [Cproarous cheering.] I ask to be placed upon this committee liecause J want to work. I will go back to Georgia and organize a party, if we have noncj’there now. 1 was a member of the national committee at i’iitsbiirg, and did not anticipate any trouble in being appointi d I.ere today.” The lady almost had near enough votes to secure her appointment, but just us the dis c.u>uon looked as if it would never end, the motion was laid on the table without being voted on. A s the afr rimon se>sion Samuel Dickey, of Albion, Michigan, was elected chairman to sue ■ < d Mr. P,n< h, and it was decided to hold the national convention during the first week in January, 1888. in proceedings behind c’osed doors, occu p:< d three hears. Indianapolis was fiaiilly <le c.i'ed upon as the place lor the next national ion . en'.iun. : nd the last Wednesday in June, I;>4, was mimed us the day.

Glesny & VIOI.ETT. Reading Tlielr Own Works. New Yoi:k, November 28.—The first of the i two days' readings from their own works was given today at Chickcring hall, by James Russell Lowell, Aiark Twain, Edward Eggleston, It. H. Stoddard. IL U. Bunner, James Whitcomb Riley and George W. Cable, to raise money to aid in .‘■v.unngan international copyright law. There was a large and fashionable audience present, ami the authors received generous tributes of applause. The Life-Saving- Service. Washington, November 28.—The annual report of Air. S. I. Kimball, general superin tendent of the life-saving service, shows that the establishment embraced, at the close of the last fiscal year, 218 stations, as follows: Ono hundred and sixty-six on the Atlantic. 44 on the lakes, 7ou the Pacific, and 1 at the falls of the Ohio, Louisville, Ky. The num ber of disasters to documented vessels reported within tiie field of station operations during the. year was 332. On board those vessels were (1,327 persons, of whom 6,272 wore saved and 55 lost. Two Fishermen Near Erie, Pa., Sunk In Sight of the Shore. Erie, Pa., November 30.—James AlcLaugh lin and Robert Pryor, fishermen, were drowned about half a mile off the shore of Presque Isle yesterday. The manner of their death is remarkable. They started out early yesterday morning and pulled their nets, making such a large haul that the boat was laden nearly to the water’s edge. At this time they were two miles from shore and the surface of the water was covered with slush" ice several inches thick. The mon weighed anchor and started back, but the wind rising caused the boat to pitch heavily and every lurch caused her to ship large quantities of semi-liquid ice. Seeing that it was impossible to reach Erie harbor the men turned for the shore, but when half a mile out an unusually heavy floe drove a large block of ice into the boat and she slid under, disappearing from view. The nicn|struggled in the water and ice for a time but were soon overcome by the cold, in sight of the crowd on shore, which could render no assistance. A Suggestion from the Commissioner of Agriculture, Washington, December I.—The annual re port of the commissioner of agriculture was laid before the president today. The commis sioner recommends, substantially, the abolition of the seed division of the department and the transfer of its duties to state and territorial experiment stations. The directors of the in stitutions, he says, ought to know what kind of seed the farmers of their respective neigh borhoods are interested iu, aud what kinds are best adapted to each locality. He says: If the work of distributing seed could be done by the stations nnd the department be relieved of this duty it would enable it to work in the other directions, of great importance to the agricultural interest of the country. It is hardly necessary to state that it takes much of the time of the commis sioner, and that ills difficult to make a distribution to i;lv satisfaction to all parties and in all parts of H e country. While the germ of department of the agriculture was seed distribution it has grown until it now reaches into many tleldsofsck'nceandinany more lie beyond, which as yet it has had neither time or means to enter. The commissioner discusses tho scope and functions of the department in away which leaves room for tho plain inference that he disapproves the efforts to make it an executive department, with a member of tho cabinet at its head. The department’s position, he thinks, should be that of an advisor in those investigations and enterprises which bear upon the agricultural interests of tho country. In beginning the department may lune been an experiment, but Its condition now should leave no doubt as to the nreeir e relation which the depart ment should hold to the government. The devel opment Ims been natural, and there may be a valu able let sjn in history of its evolution. The relation to which I refer needs to be recognized, not through the mere Changing of name; not through any radi cal legislation which may meet the favor of one class, and the disfavor ol another; nor yet through any cntaimlin; alliances which would only serve to distract attention from the one great leading thought which should always possess those who admiiu-tor the affairs of the department; but rather through a well endowed department, fully authorized to em ploy scientific experts and specialists in its several lines of investigation at ju -t and reasonable com pensations, fillly equipped with the latest and most approved apparatus with convenient! >• arranged work shops aud safe and healthy surroundings. The Heroism of Women. Tho number is legion who are chrouic in valids, and are extremely puzzled to tell what ails them. They are miserable, extreme ly miserable. Especially may this bo said of a very large class of females. They have a heavy, weighty feeling as if be ing dragged to tho earth; a misery in their back; an all gone feeling. Scarcely able to put one foot before another, and yet seeing the work must bo done, they go on, a tread mill life from early morn till late at night, keeping about from tho mere force of will. Arising in the morning but little refreshed by the few hours of broken sleep; no one but themselves knowing that incessant aches and pains had robbed them of that much needed rest. Tho following is a brief statement taken one of many letters received of similar import: Culpeper, Va., Alay 31, 1886. “Ens. Starkey & Balen:—l wrote you my symptoms one year ago last February, when I was taking the Compound Oxygen, then given me by a friend but I was; so very weak and nervous at that time I doubt if it was sufficient ly legible. Aly doctor treated me for catarrhal consump tion, and gave me all kinds of medicines for suppression, but they only seemed to increase my pain. At last lie concluded there was seise organic derangement, ami gave mo surgi cal treatment, which instead of releasing me, incrersed my agony, producing inflamation that reached the brain, making me utterly sleepless and delirious for months. “One day a friend camo to see me who had a part of a Home Treatment of Compound Oxygen at her house, and persuaded me to try it. She sent it to me, ami I commenced using it, but I must say will: very little faith. After using it about a week my no-o bled very profusely, and I felt great relief from tho brain pressure that had kept mo crazed for months. 1 began to sleep. Aly mind came back to me, though my doctor had said if 1 ever got better, or lived, I would never recover my mind. He seemed surprised that J had. Hu recommended surgical treatment, but 1 had suffered so much by that from him J would not trust it aga'n. This was about a year ago, ami I was an Invalid until a month or so since, when 1 commenced to drag around a lit tle, becoming so tired 1 could no rest. But since using Compound Oxygon I can rest and walk about, and the cold 1 had when the Com pound Oxygen arrived soon disappeard. lam stronger and lie! ter than for years. Have re sumed my oid Sunday-school class, and played on thoorgan last Sunday. Tiicre uro very many people interested in the treatment which has done so much for this lady iu Virginia.

From the Oconee, Ga., Enterprise. Judge R. M. Jackson, of this place, is per fectly carried away with the Fcterkln cotton. This year ho planted a lot near his house in this cotton as an experiment, and last week decided to carry some of it to the gin. He t arried 1,359 pounds, the usual amount for a 4<X)-poi'.n<l bale, only cxpecletl about that much, but when the cotton was ginned ami tiie bale weighed, it tipped the beam al 550 Both the s<ed cotton and tho bale wt.ro weighed by the same balances, hence there is no mist rkc about it. T his i. tlie best turn-out tor cotton we < ver heard of, and tho Judge his saved the wed p re ami clean, ami will plant a largo crop of it next year.

London, November 28.—A school in tho village of Werehobistritzkioi, Russia, was de stroyed by lire a few nights ago. A largo number of girls were sleeping on the upper doors when yie fire broke out. Twenty-four of them escaped by jumping from windows, but sixteen others who wt re afraid to jump were burned to death. A number of boys, who were sleeping on tho ground floor, es caped. London, December l.—A shock of earth quake was fell at ('barley, county of Lancas ter, at 7 o’clock this morning. A rumlding noise accompanied the shock. Buildings shook and people left their houses greatly frightened. No serious damage dune. Dublin, November 29.—The great unionist meeting, for the purpose of addressing which Lord Hartington and Mr. Goschen visited this city, was held this evening. Lord Hartington, who was loudly cheered, said that never before had he addressed such a large, enthusiastic and influential assembly. The vast gathering clearly proved that the professional and commercial classes of Ire land were opposed to separation. [Cheers.] The importance of this meeting, in the heart of Dublin, cannot bo exaggerated. Tho pow er of persistent, unblushing, reiterated asser tion is great, and has been so fully exercised in order to induce Englishmen and Scotch men to believe that Ireland detests tho union, and burns to substitute another form of gov ernment; that, unless contradicted by ocular and tangible proof, ft is almost impossible that in course of time these assertions will not ex ercise some influence on tho minds of union ists.” An attempt to evict a tenant, named Foley, from the estate of Colonel Charles Tottenham, at Wexford today, was attended with great difficulty. The house was securely barricaded, and the evictors, in order to effect an entrance, made a breach in the wall with a battering rain. While doing this, boiling wilt er and stones were thrown at them by tho tenants. Constables brought up a tire engine and re taliated by drenching the tenants with water. The occupants of the house yielded after an hour’s resistance. Ten arrests were made. Dublin, November 30.—Tho unionists’ ban quet, in Leinster hall, this evening, was a brilliant affair. Leading merchants and pro fessional men and a number of (’atholic union ists were present. The balconies were crowd ed with ladies. Lord Hartington and Mr. Goschen were given an ovation. A toast to the queen was received with enthusiasm. Everybody rose and joined in singing the national anthem and “God Bless tho Prince of Wales.” Mr. Kenny, an eminent Catholic barrister, in proposing a toast to tho unionist cause, denounced home rule as an insidious misnomer, simply meaning dismemberment of the empire and tho utter ruin of Ireland. Dublin, December 2.—-The second trial of Lord Mayor Sullivan for printing in his paper reports of suppressed branches of tho national league took place today and resulted in con viction. Mr. Sullivan was sentenced to t\|a months’ imprisonment, but without labor. London, December 3.—Tho Daily Nows savs: T io imprisonment of Lord M lyor Sullivan is a ijiiiioiial scandal Ho is a man of the highest char acter, both publicly and privately. The question which the people of (Uvat B itnin are asking in shame and auger is, “What m inner of law is this which converts such men into criminals?” Tho Standard says: V\ e are sincerely s i. ry for Mr. Sullivan, but if ho is: a prisoner tl c fault it solc’y his own. The gov* crnrr.ent’s task is a jvninfui one, and tlie only effect of the present conduct of the nationalists will 1 e to alienate the sympathy of even of those I n lishmcu who do not look with disfavor upon home rale. London, December 3.—An earthquake has occurred at Besigsjiano, Calabria. Twenty houses were destroyed and several persons killed. FRANCE. ’ Paris, December 2,1 p. m.—President Grcvy this forenoon informed the the change in situation lie did not propose to make a communication to parliament today. The announcement that M. Grevy had no communication to make to the chambers to day caused a general surprise, as this was the date set for his resignation. At a ministerial council this morning M. Grevy informed M. Rouvier that he believed that public sympathy was now in his favor, and he could form a new cabinet. M. Rouvier has freely expressed the opinion that the pres* ident will only resign under pressure of a hos tile manifestation by the chambers. Excitement in the chy is intense. A mob has gathered in front of tho palace of Klysee and are crying for tho president to resign. T’roops guard the entrance to tho palace. Crowds in front of the Palais Bourbon became so demonstrative that cavalry were obliged to charge them. A [number of members of the chamber of deputies arc in favor of impeach ing Grevy if his resignation is not announced when the sitting is resumed. A council was held at the Elyzeo palace af ter the second sitting of tho chamber. M. Rouvier having explained the bearing of the vole, M. Grevy turned to each minister and asked his opinion. All told him that his im mediate resignation appeared to be peremp tory. M. Grevy replied that it was the cham ber that had brought about the existing situa tion, and that the (hamber must bear the re sponsibility before the judgment seat of his tory. M. Grevy, at a conference with the minis ters, alluding to the intrigues of the Ferryists, said: “ft is all very artfully contrived, but the game is now apparent, and it is not to t he hon or of human nature. I see that those who play it are in a hurry to eat at the presidential ta ble, but they are going to be disappointed.’’ When members of the cabinet visited the Elysec in the morning, M. Grevy said: “I thought wo were to say ‘larewcll’ to each other, hut it will only be ‘au revoir.’ if the chamber and senate really wish me to resign they must acquaint mo with their wish by some clear and unmistakable demonstration. The events of the past few days convince me that in the interest of the republic 1 am bound nut to resign. 1 have received from various parliaim ntary quarterseommiinicati«<n.sa king me to remain in office. Therefore 1 think it iny duty to retain my ofnec. 1 believe that vci y soon I .hall be able to form a e xbinet.” Chicago, December I. A special < orrespon d-nt of the Chicago Nows telegraphs from Paris, under yesterday’s date, us follow ;: The radicals, who are at the bottom of the trouble, are on the run. It looks as though M. Clemenceau’s efforts to pull down the pillar of the temple would oe frustrated. The radicals, even fire-caU rs like Rochefort and <l< si ructionisl ; like De Roulodc, have abandoned the conspiraey to overthrow M. Grevy, under the preien«<* of wiping out a governmental shame and scandal. Alarmed by tho unconscious boost they had given their gu it mortal enemy, Ferry, they are now offer ing th< ir support to <irevy. M. ( 'leim nccau, Jiimsxdf, disconcerted by the vision of ruin which is <lisclosed, has humbled himself to Grevy; but tie* president, it is said, has declined all compromising overtures.

The text of the message is as follows: •• * - • GR’RV JWI.S'SAnK - -T :<o Jong as J Juul to contend with the *ll3l - that have ucynimulaU *t in my |Mtli—the at tacks of the press, Hr l al/MU-nlion *>f m< n whom the puolic vo *!c cailtd to my M>i', and the irjcreaNiog impossibility to form a ministry* J Mtrupg’.ed on ouu remained where duty hude mu; but at ihti mo- I mont when public opinion, better informed, marked i a ehi'.:;g ■ which ; a. c in • i.i pc o; o in ng a ; ov< ra- ■ uamt, it.e senate and » haii.b ?r ot deputks vo cd a I doub.c resolution, which, under tl e • rm of tiu ad journment to a lixt d hour to await t i o president’s promised message, Is tuntain untie ;u anionizlng the president to res.gn. L would b 1 my duty and r ght tu resist, l>ut under tlio circunis'.ances, in which we are placed, a conflict between the execu tive! and parliament, mi.rht entail c n-o iuencos, which restrain me. Wisdom and patriotism com mand me to yield. 1 leave to those who asuuno it the responsibility for such precedent, and tur events that nuiy I relinquish, without re.a t. hut not without sndncxs, tho dignity io which 1 have twice been rai-ed with out solicitation, and in the exercising of whicii I feel confident 1 have done my duty. To tins 1 call France to witness. Fiance will say that for nine years my govern ment has secured to the country pi ac, order nnd liberty; has made France respected throughout the world; has worked untiringly to raise her and in the midst of an r.nned Europe leaves her iu a con dition to defend her honor and rights. Further, that it has been able to keep (be roj übli ■ n a wise internal course, marked out by th< interests uni wishes of the country. France will say that in re turn for this, I hive been remove*! from U.epost where her confidence placed me. In 1 arving political lite, 1 form but one wish. It is that tlie re public may nut be struck blow aimed at mv cT, but that it may issue triumphant from the dan ?er it is made to incur. 1 place on the bureau of the cham ber of deputies my resignation of the functions of president of the French republic. M. Grevy was not affected himself by tho day’s events, but members of his family were terrified by the shouts of tho populace, and urged him not to delay his resignation. Mr. Grevy has gone to his home, at Mont Sous Vandry. Ho left Paris on tho seven o’clock express train. * Versailles, December 3.—Tho first trial by tho senators and deputies of the left today, for a candidate for tho presidency resulted as fol lows: M. Ferry 200. M. DeFroycinot 193. M. Brisson 81, M. Sadi Carnot 69, General Saus sier 7. Balloting for tho election of president began at 2:15 p.m. The first ballot resulted: Sadi Carnot, 303; Ferry. 212: General Sanssior, 148; Froycinet, 76; General Appe.rt, 72: Bris son, 26; other candidates, 26. DeFroycinet and Ferry wore both withdrawn and on another ballot Sadi Carnot received 600 votes and was elected. The announcement of Ids election was received with cries of “Vive La Rcpublique.” The second ballot upon which Sadi Carnot was elected stood as follows: Sadi Carnot, 616; General Saussier, 186; Ferry, 11; De breycinet. 5; General Appert. 5; General Pyat, 1. Tho result was seen in the final ballot. Leroyer, on receiving tho ballot re turn, said: “M. Sadi Carnot having obtained tho suf frage, I proclaim him the president of the re public.” ■ There was an outburst of cheering, espe cially from the left and center. M. Leroyer then declared tho session closed. After tho sittting M. Sadi Carnot received the congratulations of the senators and depu ties. Jn acknowledging them he said: I thank you from the boib an of my he irt for tho congratulations and sentiments exp.vssjd. 1 am tilled with gratitude to members of tho assembly, who in uniting their siitlrage in my »'avor, bear wit ness to a d »iro tor the induce and concord with w) ich republican Franco is animated. My dearest wish is that this great day may r n>ain pr sent in all minds ami hearts. ]t slgniii *s that the represent atives of France can be* united, 'l’iieir eomnmn efforts can ami must secure the constitution, assuring an active and stable government, c;ipa ; 1 * of the mtional liberty at home and di nity abroii i, will be all the benefits which our country expects frmn the re; u'»lie. Once more I thank you. You may count upon my entire devotion. A squadron of cuirassiers were drawn up in the court yard, and when the president came forth with tho ministers, the troops “presented arms” and paid him military honors. Sadi Carnot entered a carriage with Rouvier, and with other ministers in carriages, started at a rapid pace for Paris. An escort of cuirassiers brought up the rear. Other senators and dep uties returned to Paris on a special train. News of tho result of the election was re ceived in Versailles with great jubilation. Large crowds surrounded tho congress build ing throughout, tho afternoon. Shouts' of “ Vive Carnot!” “Vivo la Rcpubliqucl” min gled with various patriotic cries, continued for a long timo with unabated vigor. Sadi-Carnot appeared at a win-down of his house and said: “1 give you hearty thanks, citizens, for thia evi dence of your symi’athy. I beg you to prove by your culm demeanor and rci ard fur order, that you are in truth worthy to have a republican gov ernme it.” The speech was hailed with shouts of “Vivo la Republique.” Paris, December 1. —President Sadi-Carnot was formally installed in tho Elyseo palace this afternoon,«and later received visits from ex-President Grevy, M. Rouvier, President Peytral, of the budget committee, and other leading politicians. The president stated that it was his intention, after the new ministry was formed, to at on co close the present session of parliament until after tho coming senatorial elections. Tho resignation of the cabinet, which follows the election of a now prosidont., and General Brugere will in vest the latter with tho grand collar of legion of honor, General Eaidherbo presiding at the ceremony. The newspapers of this city generally ap prove of the election of M. Sadi-Carnot, and consider jt an augury of peace, Telegrams from the province-, without excopticii, testify to tho satisfaction felt at the result of the election.
