The extension of the Metropolitan street rail-
Toad-eastSard to Uniontown and westward to
GeOrgetoTn-is a measure for the benefit and
accommodation not only of the people residing
in the sections named, but throughout the Dis
triet; and it is to be hoped that Congress will
promptly pass the bill granting the company the
right of way. We cannot understand why there
should be any delay, unless President Rlker is
emulating President John W. Garrett and
wishes to perpetuate his monopoly regardless of
the wishes of the people. The community needs
largely increased railroad facilities for local and
general Communication, and competition in that
direction should be encouraged by congress and
our local legislature. Let Us have all the lines
which caPitalistsare willing to build. The pub
Tic will be the gamers.

In paper recently read before the Lonlon
Medical Officers OF Health, Mr. Nelter Rad
cliffe discussed the prospects of cholera, based
upon the information which has been obtained
concerning the prevalence and progress of the
disease since the autumn OF 1902" and after
closely comparing the course taken by the
cholera during the past two years with the
development and progress OF former --isitstions,
comes 10 the conclusion that the disease is nov
." essentially .rue migrating epidemic cholera
ard speaks OF its ultimate invasion OF England as

well a. Great Britain, for with the constant
communication between Europe and this eoun-
try would not take long for the disease to cross
the Atlantic.

The drought which prevails here and through

The drought which prevails here and through
out the county Is becoming q very serious mat
ter, and unless We are soon favored with copous
rains farm and garden products of every
Kind will become scarce and dear The
absence OF any heavy SHOWS during the winter,
and the fact that early in December the ground
became frozen and continued in that state so
long, prevented the rain that did fall from PEN
Grating the Toll and feeding the springs. The
spring rains were far below the average In VOL
ume, and we had a month of drought in
place of what Is ordinarily a month of moisture,
and here we are in the middle OF NAV with a
water famine prevailing throughout the land
Not only is the growth OF vegetation checked,
but disastrous forest fires have been rsg,ug for
weeks with great fury in many localities. Not
only at the west, but even in Pennsylvania and
in New York, New Jersey, New Hampshire and
other eastern states, these fires begin at a
strangely early season. Even during the month
Of April-usually a season of rains and OF melt
ing SHOWS IN the woodlands-we find extensive
forest CONGREGATIONS raging. Toward the end
OF April heavy fires were sweeping everything
before them, according 10 our report, salI the
way from Parker's landing to Oil city, on one
side OF the river, and in the woods on the hills
above NcClintockvilie. On Thursday a dis
patch showed that forest fires had been raging
for several days near COlyille, n. j., and had
destroyed houses as well as woods Throughout
the Catskill region the same terrible destruction
has been going on for weeks. Along the upper
Connecticut some Of the wooded mountains are
also abIaze; and 30 they are in Ulster county,
N. Shelter Island, l.. L., and South Noun
tain, Pa; also along the o. S A. railroad in
Virginia. Physicists, some Of them at least, say
the exceptional and phenomenal cold Of the
past winter might, perhaps, be attributable to
the periodic return of what eminent meteorolo-
gists have called "the cold wave" through
which our planet is supposed to pas ence in
every ten or fifteen years. The diminution of
our annual heat supply derived from solar rad
iation, OF course, would be marked by diminu-
ton in the amount OF water evaporated from
the pillows of the ocean and distributed over the
globe for irrigation. The rain fall statistics for
the present year, so far as received, at least
serve As a warning to be prepared for possible
great scarcity Of water during the coming sum
ner.

Lex misunderstanding of Spanish
Officers i'm Cuba.

A correspondent writes from Havana
under date of Aug. IL:
The murder of the Mexican Gen. In
clan and of his aid-de-camp by the
Spaniards has been partially balanced
by Gen. Agramonte. He has captured
seven Spanish officers, among them a
very distinguished colonel, and held
them prisoners in his camp. AS soon
as the authorities IN Puerto Principe
heard of this capture the Government
Secretary and another officer repaired,
under a flag of truce, to Agramonte's
camp. He received them Hospitality.
listened to their petition Informed them
that he then held seven Spanish officers
prisoners, that it was not his Gus
tom to shoot prisoners, and hat he was
willing to parole them on one condition,
tn t Gen. Inclan and his aide-de-camp
be liberated. Agramonte's astonish-
ment when the Spanish commissioners
regretted that it was out of their power
to comply with that one condition, be-
cause the patriot prisoners had been
shot, can be imagined. Agramonte
then invited the commissioners to
breakfast, and gave orders to his chief
Of staff to have all the prisoners shot at
once. When the firing was heard,
Agramonte turned to his guests, and re-
GREETED that he could not comply with
their wishes, because the Spanish Off
GERS had already been shot.

The Geneva Arbitration.

GENEVA, Aug. 15.-The Tribunal met and
remained in session until $40 p. M,
when it adjourned to reassemblc at noon to
morrow. Sir Rounded Palmer, counsel for
Great Britain, was present at the session,
though suffering from indisposition.
GENEVA, Aug. 16.-The Board of Arbitra-
ton met at noon to-day, and after q session
of one hour adjourned until Monday. Jacob
Staempff, the Swiss Arbitrator, to-day said
that he hoped all work OF the Board would
be finished in three weeks.
LONDON, Aug. 16.-Ad dispatch from Geneva
says that the American representatives an
ticipate the recovery of damages, to a large
amount, from England. They consider the
presence Of Mr.. Cohen favorable to such a
result. The Americans have decided to re-
quire the nomination of a Board of Assessors,
should a gross sum not be awarded.
GENEVA, Aug. 1.-THE supplementary
arguments of American counsel before the
Board of Arbitration are published in pam
covers a hundred pages, while those of
Messrs. Cushing and Waite are less ex-
tended.
GENEVA, Aug. J9.-The Board of Arbitra-
ton met at noon to-day, and adjourned at
4:3O D. D.. Sir Rounded Palmer was not
present. The speeches of the counsel have
been printed. 1t is expected that the in
formation of the proceedings of the Board
will soon be communicated to the press.
GENEVA, Aug. 20.-M. Armand Dumaresq,
the celebrated French artist, has arrived in
Geneva. His object in coming here is to
paint a picture commemorative of the sit
ting of the Tribunal of Arbitration. The
final decision of the Court is expected in a
few days. While nothing is positively
known on the subject, the presence of Mr..
Cohen and the exceptional length of yester-
days sitting OF the Tribunal or Arbitration
are the occasion of an accredited rumor that
somewhat important news will be communi-
Gated to the press tomorrow.
