In few minutes the building was sur

Did He Gain a DayI

To the Editor OF the Cleveland Herald
1t is said to be a scientific fact that if
one makes a journey around the
globe in an easterly direction he will
find that he will have one more
day in his diary, if he keeps one, than
will the person who remains in the
same place from which the traveller
started, during the same time. If he
makes the journey around the globe in
westerly direction he will find that his
record shows one day less than that of
the person who remains at the point of
starting. Now, General Grant has
virtually made the journey around the
globe in an easterly course. If he had
kept an actual account of the days from
the day that he sailed from Philadelphia
to the day that the cannons doomed up
on his arrival at San Francisco, he
would have found that his count was
one day more than that of either of the
cities named. But had the great cap
tain of this century really gained any
time absolutely by his trip around the
world? Let some scientific reader an
swer and explain. S. p. NJ.

iwARLIKE MOVEMENTS.
Active Arrangements Being Made to
Carry the War into Abyssinin.

( London, Dec. 4.-Aecounts from
Egypt state that the government is ac-
lively completing preparations for war
with Abyssinia. The war office at Cairo
and the harbor of Suez, where troops
are to embark, are very animated. If
hostilities are resumed, the Egyptian
forces will be divided into two armies,
offensive and defensive,-the former to
be composed of eight thousand men and
the latter of twelve thousand. The
offensive army will be disembarked at
the Egyptian harbor of Arkiho, near
Adna, the capital of Abyssinia, and the
defensive army will take up two en-
trenched positions, one at Gosun, near
the Rabal river. and the other at Bahia,
on the Render river; thus commanding
the two main roads of Abyssinia leading
from the north to the Soudan. Gordon
Pasha will command the defensive
army.
A dispatch from Alexandria contra
diets the report that the British and
French consuls at Massowah have sum-
moned King John of Abyssinia to allow
Gordon Pasha to return to Egypt with
out hindrance. Tile dispatch says:
"There is no British consul at Masso-
wall. No news has been received of
Gordon Pasha since lie returned to
Debratabor at Kings Johns request,
and it is not yet time for letters to ar
rive from him. The report of strained
relations between Egypt and Abyssinia
is greatly exaggerated. No troops have
left Cairo and none ue preparing to
leave, except battalion, which Gordon
Pasha requested in his last communi-
cation..-f.

LEE WELL ENoucm ALONE.
Carpenters Resolution from n Politi-
cal Stapdpoiut

cai Sthnupo1uts
Washington, Dec. 5.-The republi-
cans in both branches of congress ap-
pear very generally to have reached
tacit agreement that Senator Carpen-
ter's financial resolution should be
adopted. This simply declares that
"any legislation during the present ses-
sion of congress materially changing
the existing system of finance would be
inexpedient, - or, in other words, that
it will be wise to sslet well enough
alone. !" While thus implying all that
is contained in Mr.. Forts resolution it
is drawn in smoother terms, which, ac-
cording to current gossip, were submit
ted to Prest. Hayes and met his approv-
al as the best that could be devised to
avert the threatened injurious conse-
quences, in party point of view, of his
own recommendations Just rs the re-
publicans, however, by repudiating the
presidents financial recommendations,
have fair promise of escaping party
divisions, the democrats find that
trouble has been created within their
own lines by Senator Bayard's bomb
shell in the resolution proposing to alb
rogate the legal-tender power of green
backs, and thus make greenbacks merely
treasury notes or promises to pay. This
does not meet with the appreciation of
many western democrats. 1t is argued
that if the legal-tendor quality of green
backs be eliminated the national banks
could practically drive them out of cir
culation by refusing 10 receive them,
and western democrats believe that the
national banks would not hesitate to
pursue this policy, which, it is further
alleged, would be manifestly to their
advantage. Western democrats assert,
also, that if Mr.. Bayard, through this
resolution, hopes to gain eastern support
for the presidential nomination, he may
succeed in that direction but has GER
tainly driven the west away from him.
Senator Bayard, ON the other hand, is
confident that calm examination of his
resolution will show that it is perfectly
in accord with old and universally
recognized democratic doctrines, and
that its adoption would cut the ground
right out from under the feet of their
political opponents in the north, who
claim that southern and western demo-
Gratis are not in favor of honest money,
and not, therefore, safe to be trusted
with control of the national finances.
Mr.. Bayard also insists that greenbacks
without the legal-tender quality would
still remain in circulation, for they
would be redeemable in coin by the gov
ernment just as they now are. With his
customary frankness and sincerity he
admits, however, that he is not very
sanguine that his resolution will be
adOptpd

GRANT HOLDS THE TnUMr.
II He Play it He Gan Win the Sic
.aragua Canal

New York, Dec. 5.-The Tribune
says the rivalry between the Panama
and Nicaragua routes assumes an in
teresting phase. Obviously there are
not going to be the two canals dug.
One or the other must be abandoned.
1t may be that the question Of which is
to survive win be settled by tie action
of Grant, If he should accept. the
proffered presidency of The Nicaragua
company the great weight of his name
abroad would probably insure the aid Of
abundant foreign capital, and the feel
ing of national pride in the undertaking
would be stimulated in this country,
which would carry with it favorable
action of congress and a good deal Of
assistance from the American capital
lists. A
In such an event DeLesseps would be
likely to find the physical difficulty of
cutting canal across the Panama
isthmus down to the Tidewater level
more serious than he thought 'and
might counsul the abandonment of the
work, and perhaps turn into a success
full American enterprise the capital he
he has raised. Without Grant, how
ever, the Nicarlgua undertaking will
hardly start off very briskly; not that
he is great engineer, but he is the
best known American living, which
counts for great deal in Europe, and
he has reputation for practical sense,
which is a guarantee that he will not
take hold of work that he connot carry
through. fs ssat /

In 1865 the New York Sun prediete d
the defeat Of Grant. Then the predic-
ton meant that Grant would be defeat
ed if Dana was not appointed collector
of the port of New York. In 1872 the
Sun again predicted the defeat of Grant.
Then it meant that he would be defeat
ed because Dana had not been appoint
ed collector of the port of New York,
and stood no chance whatever of being
appointed postmaster. And now the
Sun again predicts the defeat of Grant
should he receive the republican NOM
nation. 1t really seems as il Dana
was working to secure Grants nomina-
