What 4)1st-tilers HaVe Done Towards Arranging to Pay lipeeensialoneltDiarteln. ate.titAsugusOlobe-t Irocrat Art the local haVe Made their arrangements for the payment of the August Internal revenue tax. In Covington (the Sixth Kentucky teat) the payments are already being made. Thouncertainty which bas marled the lag all along among the distillers has been very disagreeable to them, and they will be glad when the present payment is Passed- The statement that the Government had granted an extension of time to the distillers of the Louisville District is after taied to have been erroneous. A dispatch front Louisville states that August 14 will be "force day" and distillers who have May, 1890, goods in bond will have to pay $440,000 taxes.

Those who tail to pay must suffer the penalty. which is 5 per cent on the entire amount due. Additional penalties are Imposed for each month the tax remains unpaid. Sines "force day" has been designated the revenue officers do not see how an extension cam be granted to the distillers. Some of them will have to hustle to get the money.

When Col. Thos. H. Shirley. of Louisville who represents the Kentucky whisky men, learned that the Government had deelcied not to grant the extension to Louisville dealer's, he at once started for New York and is now there attempting to raise the money to pay tax for this, the First District of Ohio.

and the. Second, Fifth and Sixth Districts of Kentucky. i The production of whisky during the season of 1890 was greater than was ever known before, the distilleries belonging to the trust, as well as those out of it all doubling their capacity and running day and night. This was done in order to have as Much whisky on hand as they could carry. if, as they believed would be the cases the tax on whisky should be -raised from 90c to $1.

25 per gallon. As is now known this was not done, although- a mighty effort was made to have the Fifty-second Congress pass a law increasing the tax. and the whisky men have been on a strain ever since. Cul. Shirley has all the backing necessary.

all of the banks and the entire whisky interest furnishing him with collaterale Should he fall, it will be the duty of the of Internal Revenue in each district to restrain and seize, not only the whisky upon which the tax Is due. but in addition. sufficient to pay the tax of 90c per gallon, with a penalty of 5 per cent, and the costs of restraint and sale added. Regarding the tax on the whisky in the Cincinnati district, Collector McClung said to-day it amounted to only $46,000, but the aggregate amount due those Kentucky districts represented by Cincinnati distillers is placed at Real Estate Transfers.

Three minutes before the collapse two Men and a woman, all white, were seen seated upon barrels inside the open doorway on the Levee side of the doomed building. They were making merry, and were unconscious of impending danger. These three were not seen to emerge.

and the supposition is that they were entombed. The victims had no time to escape, In fact. The disintegration. which was complete, came without a moment's warning- and was over in an- instant. Three colored roustabouts, seated upon logs not 10 teet from the falling east wall.

had barely i time to leap from their places and dodge the flying brick before the building was level with the ground. Had the east wall fallen outwardly they, too, would have been caught. Firemen from Company No. 22 were at work last night under direction of Assistant- Chief Thomas Finnerty, -in the search for the bodies of those believed to have fallen victims. The darkness prevented successful search.

however. That there are others buried in the debris is not improbable. The building has been abandoned for almost five years. It was formerly occupied by the Future City Oil Works, and has been thrice gutted by fire. One month ago it partially Since the last fire, at which several firemen' narrowly escaped death, the place has been abandoned.

During that time it has been the nightly rendezvous of tramps and of women with no other place to lay their beads. It has been nightly crowded with these, and they were accustomed to resort to it as early as 6 o'clock in the evening. Access to the place was easy. Until two months ago a private watchman was kept there by M. A.

Wolfi Se agents, but since then. beside being without espionage, the large door leading on to the Levee ,1 has been left wide open. About a month ago the western wall bulged and toppled over and one of the firemen of Company 22 pulled the man from the debris more dead than alive. The bulging walls made the place a menace to life. and it was reported to the police for condemnation, but nothing was ever done.

As it stood, the rambling old brick shell was an ever threatening danger. augmented by the proximity of the elevated railway trestle with its constant vibrations. The building was apparently merely stuck on to the main structure. The east half was two stories but the rear had been left uncovered. It has been ready for the past month to topple over without warning.

An examination last night showed that the roof had descended almost intact, carrying the second floor with it, then receiving upon it all bill the south wall, which was the north wall of the main structure. Whatever people were within those three walls are now crushed by tons of brick and timber. The building was owned by a Mrs. Powers, and seems to have bred disaster through its entire history. It had stood for thirty years, and had been repeatedly gutted by fire, entailing heavy loss upon occupants and owners.

Then Mrs. Powers lost her reason and became an inmate of an insane asylums cc-according to tnose versed in the facts. The woman supposed to have been buried in the debris was known to those in the neighborhood only as Katy. She made her first appearance around there two weeks ago and bad no settled place of abode. The two men are said to have been tramps, in the habit Of canning beer in the place.

THREE BADLY BURNED. Disastrous Result of the Premature Ex, plosion of a Cannon. Two men and a boy were horribly burned by the premature explosion of a cannon at 9:40 last night, near the corner of Sixth and Pine streets, during the progress of the parade of the "Bombardment of Fort Sumter." Frank Welch and Emile Hill, the men who were injured, were loading the cannon when a fiery ball from a Roman candle fell directly into the powder. A terrific report and a sheet of flame followed the fall of the candle-ball. and the men were hurled out of the wagon.

their clothing ablaze. Bob Berryman. a I6-year-old bey. who was on the float with Welch and Hill. was also burned.

Hill. the most badly injured person of the three, had to be completely stripped of his clothing in the street before they ceased blazing. He was taken into Deck's saloon, where the flesh of tkis bands and legs peeled off in huge layers. Welch was able to walk into the saloon, but was-. nearly crazy with pain, and poor little Bob Berryman, who was carried to Tierney's drug store, Sixth and Chestnut.

was completely Out of his head. A few minutes alter that accident occurred an ambulance arrived and took the wounded to the City Dispen4ary, where Dr. Jordan attended them. LOCAL BREVITIES. TES Theosophical Society has moved Its Quarters to 3100 Olive street.

THE QUESTION 01" PURE One Worthy of Careful Consideration and Close Investigation Water in the solid. as Ice, has In MOdern times become a very important factor in the physical Well-being of man. pr. Frank Glasgow on July 28 addressed a communication to the 'Health Comintssioner published in some of the St.

Louis papers. from 'which We make the following extract: "DEAR SIR--I write in order to call your attention to a Ver1 serious source ot danger to the health of the city, and that is the impure ice which is being sold. Some which has been delivered at my house, and said by the dealer to be from the Fekin Ice Company, had broad streaks el slime all through it Some he brought and stated to be from the East Louis Ice and Cold Storage Company was in the same condition. The water from this melting ice was milky and so ilithy that no one would have Oared to drink it This was stated to be artificial ice. but I do.not believe IL" The East St.

Louis Ice Company are the largest manufacturers of ice for the St. Louis market, and the only company using what Is known as the plate process. The works in East St. Louis were visited by a representative of this paper, and the process of ice-making fully examined in person, and it is impossible that any ice. such as was given Dr.

Glasgow should have been produced at their works. They use only the 'water from the Mississippi River. and this water, as is well known, is the purest and best supplied to any large city. Every analysis made of Mississippi water only adds testimony to this fact. To be sure It contains some muds but nothing unhealthful.

At the plant of the East St. Louis Company two huge niters are In use. The water passes first through a layer of coke, and then through a layer of sand, then through the 'strainers. This process is repeated twice, and at the conclusion of the second filtration it is as pure as a dew drop. The water is then stored in the cypress storage tank from which it is discharged into the tanks to be frozen.

in the system of freezing employed here the ice Commences to form on each side of great steel pletes, and continues to congeal until it attains a thickness of some 12 inches. The cakes weigh about three tons. and are twelve days in freezing, during which time they are carefully covered and protected from dust. dirt or any deleterious matter. One of these immense cakes drawn during the visit to the plant was so clear that a copy of the GLOBEDEMOCRAT was read through it without difficulty.

It was then cut into 300- pound blocks ready for storage and shipment The capacity of the plant Is 125 tons of ice every The capacity of the filters is about 150 tons of water for the same period. Water freezing in the open air by natural methods largely expels its coarser visible contaminations. In the plate system natture's own theory is followed. and as the ice forms the air and any impurity which may rxmain in the filtered water is forced out into liae open water between the cakes of ice. The Mercantile Club.

undoubtedly the largest organization of business men in the city, have taken up the matter and had the source of the ice supply of the club investigated and the ice analyzed with the following results: "Report of chemical analysis of Ice from East St. Louis Company; manufactured Ice. One liter after eveporation left a total solid residue of 5 to about 1-10th grain per gallon. The residue was not carbonaceous. but consisted of white calcareous material.

The organic matter appears to be almost entirely ilue to extracted material from the wood of the anits in which the water is stored before freezing. It is altogether too insignincant to play any material role in the question of hehithfulness of the ice. The tests for chlorides. sulphates and nitrates gave a negative result. No albuminoid ammonia could be produced, showing the total absence of the protein substances.

which are the moat deleterious ingredients of ice and drinking water. No phosphates could be detected. The ice can therefore be pronounced to be of excellent quality, the water obtained by its melting being nearly equal in purity to distilled water and containing only minute traces bt impurities derived from the wooden storage tanks. Signed, Dr. Chas.

O. Curtman. That the sanitary problem which the use of natural ice for drinking purposes presents in St. Louis will end Its solution in the use of artificial ice made from purified water by the plate process is more than probable. as the ice made by the East St.

addressed to "The Telegraphic Fraternity of the United States," and signed "Lizzie Annandale. It narrated briefly that the fair opera singer was in financial straits and that, although she disliked to do so very much, she was compelled to Inform her old telegraph operators, of, her misfortune. The dispatch reached the various large telegraphic centers just after the regular semimonthly pay-day, and responses were instantaneous from New York. Philadelphia, Pittsburg. Cincinnati, St.

Louis. Chicago and other leading cities. pledging ail the money needed to relieve Miss Annandale's distress. No accurate estimate of the total can yet be given, but it will probably reach several thousand dollars when all sections shall have been heard from. Omaha at once subscribed $60, and the operators in this city have sent $23, to be followed by more if required.

This bond of sympathy between Miss Annandale and the telegraphers dates back to the great strike of ten years ago, when the lady, then a member of the Emma Abbott company, was instrumental in getting up a benefit for the striking telegraphers wh1ch.t4nettett. between $4000 and $5000. She hat been the recipieat of ovations And floral tributes from the operators, and. Is regarded as tne pet of the profession. This is not the first time that Miss Annandale has asked our assistance," said one of the telegraphers last night.

"but that doesn't make any difference. She has earned our lasting gratitude." The Lizzie Annandale Opera Company and a Mexican orchestra have recently been playing to bad business In Texas and Arkansas. At Springfield, Mo. the manager on Wednesday decided to cancel the dates in that city for the remainder of the week. The Mexican Musicians then pulled out from the combination and went to Chicago.

The opera company will give a concert before leaving Springfield, probably on Sunday night. has Not 'hut Down. It was given out yesterday that the Hamilton-Brown Shoe Company had temporarily suspended operations in all its departments, owing to depression of business, thus throwing 500 men and 400 boys out of employment for a time at least. Previous trouble with the Shoe Lasters Union and with other of their employes gives the reputed action the color of a lock-out, and it was also stated that the employes may refuse to return to work when work should be resumed. Supt.

W. F. McElroy, when seen last night. however, denied that there was any shut-down whatever. "lieretotore," said he.

"we have been running six days in the week, but now for awhile we shall run only four. That is the only basis of such a statement Instead of there being a lockout or danger of a stri ke the best of feeling exists. The wages paid in St. Louis are better than those in any other plaee, and I have now 1000 applications for work in every department. Our employes have about $18,000 deposited with us, drawing 7 per Cent interest, and we pay our men in full every week.

Talmage, of the Quarantine Board of Health, boarded the steamer Raramania this morning and inspected the passengers. All on board are well. The Karamania arrived at Quarantine yesterday afternoon, after a long voyage from the cholera-affected port of Naples. During the voyage three passengers died and were buried at sea. As the ships surgeon did not specify the disease from wnich the passengers 'died the vessel was held for fumigation and disinfection.

The suspicion prevailed that the disease was Asiatic cholera. but nothing definite could be learned last night Alter inspecting the passengers this morning, the Health Officer ordered the transfer boats to take them to the islands in the bay, where they will be detained until all doubts of the existence of cholera are Dr. Irwin says that while be can find no evidence that there has been cholera on board. he deems the circumstances sufficiently suspicious to hold the ve eget. In appearance the rararnania is not a very attractive veseel.

She has the outward aspect of. a tramp steamer. and is, in a Mediterranean fruiter during the season. She Is built of iron, is 3148 tons gross measurement and rigged as a schooner. She was built in 1881', and is little better than a floating oven, with a lack of both light and ventilation.

In this vessel nearly 500 persons spent twenty-one days of warm weathers cramped for room and breathing foul air. The fears of some people that the clerks in the Post Office who handled the mails from Italy. and those to whom the mall is addressed. are liable to, spread cholera in this country, were set at rest by Assistant Postmaster Gaylor, who said. In the course of an interview this morning: All mails from Italy addressed to this country are forwarded overland to Havre, where they are disinfected and brought to this country by the steamers of the French line.

We never receive any malls by tramp steamers from Italian ports. The New York office has received instructions from Washington in reference to mails from Italy. During the plague last year Dr. Jenkins took extra precautions, and although the mails had been disiniected in France, they were again put through the same course at Quarantine. I have never heard of any contagious disease being transmitted through the mails in this country." The ffrst death on the steamer Raramania, as reported by Consul Sprague, at Gibraltar.

is given as "congestion of the lungs," probably diagnosed thus by the ship's surgeon. The other two cases had cramps, diarrhea and vomiting. The surgeon reported a sailor as having diarrhea yesterday. but investigation developed the fact that he had been working in the bold, became overheated and Crank large quantities of water. He was Well, on inspection.

Trie name of the steamer's doctor is James Todd. He is an Englishman. and has been in the East India Dr. Jenkins dictated the following this afternoon: "We have not had an opportunity to see the cases, as they died and were burled at sea. but many of the symptoms Of the last two cases resemble cholera, and if it did not, we would certainly not hold the shin.

There is no need of alarm. Asa ship and passengers will be detained untitire have absolute proof that there is no danger injanding her passengers to the islands. (Signed) "DR. JewitistS. Dr.
