the planets are small bodies moving
in elipscs around the sun, and the
sun, which is a much smaller body
than the earth revolves around it
with its attendant planets once a
year, as it really appears to do. Tu-
sk-ad of being such an immense
globe as taught by Newtonian as-
tronomers, the new system reduces it
to 3,405 miles in diameter, Jupiter
dwindles to a diameter of 375 miles,
and Mercury is a pigmy that meas-
ures not to exceed 15 miles. Instead
of being 95,000,000 of miles away,
Capt. Morrison assures 11s the sun is
but 365,006 miles distant, while tin
moon’s mean distance is but 27.3°-|
miles.
Capt. Morrison claims his is tin

An accident which came very near
resulting in a fearful destruction of
life occurred on the Atlantic ,5; Pa-

train containing two picnic parties,
numbering about 2,000 men. women
and children, was run into by a
freight train. Two baggage cars
were demolished and the rear coach
badlv damaged. The shock was
very severe. Thirteen persons were
injured, two very SAriouslv, but none
killed.

Amount of st. LoiiH Failures F.x ifffteniH tl.
St. Louis, June 20.—It has been
ascertained that the amounts tele-
graphed yesterday as the sums for
which provision dealers here failed
Wednesday were greatly exaggera-
ted. The real loss of the three firms
is said to lie less than one hundred
thousand dollars. All the meat bought
by the parties has reverted back to
the original owners, and tiie only
real loss involved is margins on pur-
chases for the future. The figures
given yesterday, were, however, fur-
nished liy the parties themselves, and
were supposed to he correct. The
failures created no excitement on
’Change, nor have they produced any
influence on the market.
