1t is stated that the Senate special commi'.
tee on the case of Senator Matthews have
come to The singular conclusion to admit only
a reporter of the Associated Press to their
meetings. The committee do not seem to be
aware that this will prevent the Washington
papers from making any report of their pro-
ceedings. They probably are under the i'm
preston that the Associated Press reporters
supply the city papers with the information
they get, but this is an error. The Washing
ton papers receive only dispatches from other
points by the Associated Press agency. That
agency supplies no Washington matter to the
papers here.

New York IS now PROFOUNDLY agitated on the
subject of rapid transit by means of elevated
railways. An especial agitation is noticeable
among the street car cOmpa lies. The present
rush for the more rapid means of travelling is
ascribed by them TO the novelty of the eleva-
ted railways, and they express an expectation
of regaining soon their former patronage
They cheerfuly note the discomfOrts of strug-
CLING up steep and slippery steps in wet wea-
fher, and OF standing on an uncovered plat
form while awaiting the train, which robS
Them of their passengers, and take mild sat
1sfactiOn in expatiating on the dangers run by
those who overcrOwd the cars on the elevated
track. just idea Of the lasting effect of the
new line on the street car patronage, cannot
OF course, be formed until the present excite
ment is over, and its regular, permanent bust
ness established and aScertained. But it is
likely that rapid transit will before long revo-
lutionize existing systems of transportation in
New York: and if the experiment is success
1ul there, other cities Will not be slow to profit
by the example set them.

The relation between drainage and health
IN large cities is We'll exemplifed in statistics
furnished by st. Louis. For a period of four
years, commencing from 1870, during which
Time the city had population of $4,000, and
was, generally speaking. without sewers, the
average mortality was 5000 In 1916 a great
extension of the sewer system wis entered
upon. In $50, in a population of $4,000, the
death rate was only $3.50. There are are now
1Se miles of sewers, and though the city num-
DerS over 10000 inhabitants. the mortality of
last year was less than the average during the
period between 1850 and 1870. and for the last
four years it has been on an average but 6, 4Ol,
with steady decrease from the beginning to
the end OF The period. No cause for the de
creased mortality, other than the deyelom ,nt
OF the sewer system, is apparent

Persons who have been led to suspect that
they have been Swindled into the use of the
taStless, inOdOrOus fat called Oleomargarine,
suppOsing it to be butter, have perhaps con-

based only on possibility, is sufficiently
serious in its nature TO make the avoidance of

The striking operatives in England are hold

The striking operatives in England are hold
ing meetings at intervals at which thousands
assemble and are going through the form of
voting down by large majoritieS mOions in
favor of submission. The struggle between
master and workman has now bee Dme a ques-
ton of endurance, and in such cases sub
mission must finally be IN lde by the workman.
The sufferings of the opera ives are already
pitiable. But when the reduction in wages is
conceded. the difficulty will not be ended
The English cotton trade has been SO duced
by the decline in the demand for her cotton
goods, due to the general depression in the
world s trade the manuflc ure of such good S
IN India, and American competition, that one =
third of the capital and wOrkmpn employed in
it could be prOfitably dispensed with. The
English cotton goods are already made at
loss, which the proposed reduction will by no
means remedy. The decay of the trade is
certain. Even with wages reduced to a mini
mum, with 10000 weaverS in Lancashire re-
celylng on an average only about $J75 per
week, the products of the English mills cannot
compete in point of cheapneSs and quality
with American cotton. Depression of trade
misery among the wOrkingmen, and heavy
losses to the masters, appear, unfortunately,
to be inevitable. The English workman mast
lind labor in some other field, and capital
must flow in some other direction The i'm
portance OF this matter 10 England may be
estimated by consideration of the fact that
IN 1876 the cotton exports ID England were in
val Ie $S}S,2pp,0D, or more than One-third of
te value of the total exports for that wear
which amounted to Sl,0J0,00,00

PARIS, April 19th.-The arrange
ments for the opening of the Ex-

eign Commissioners, Presidents, and
Vice-Presidents of the Chambers
Ministers, populations, Senators
and Deputies. Troops being drawn
up all along the route from the
Elysee, Marshal MacMahon will
first repair to the Princes saloon,
and the procession will then be
formed, which will march from the
Grand Arcade to n platform over
looking the fountain and COM
mandiDg view Of nearly all the
buildings and grounds. Here M.
Leisserenc de Bort will welcome
the Marshal in short speech, and
the Marshal will then declare the
Exhibition opened. One hundred
and one guns in the Invalides, on
Mont Valerien and on an island in
the Siene will follow the announce
ment; the military bands will
strike up, all the fountains will
play and the soldiers stationed by
fiagstaffs will hoist the flags of all
nations on the roofs of the two
palaces and annexes. The Marshal
will then reascend the Trocadero
Palace. The procession reforming,
will, after completing the round of
the building, cross over the river
to the Champ de Mars. The troops

Mars. The palace will be occupied

rated with the crown jewels, Sc
vres porcelain, Gobelin tapestries
and the Prince of Wales Indian
collection. 1t will then pass
through all the sections, the Com
missioners of each country greeting
it at the door, and will next in
spect the military school where all
the exhibition workmen will be
and will lastly traverse
the machinery annexes. On arri-
irving at the gates the Marshal
will take leave of the Princes and
other distinguished percentages and
return to the Elysee. Madame

ambassadors and ministers will be |
assigned stations behind the Tro-
cadero platform. The Exhibition

THE way in which a fusion be-
tween the Democratic and Repub.
lican parties for the election oil
members to the Constitutional
Convention would be interpreted
by many is we'll illustrated by the
following extract from the San
Bernardino Argus:
Kearney must certainly WELD q
tremendous power if he can fright
en- the historical enemies-Demo-
Gratis and Republicans-into an abb
ject and cowardly alliance against
the mushroom party of Working
men. In this contemplated alli-
ance the fingers Of Stanford, Lewis,
Farley, Evans, Boruck ct al, are
plainly visible.
