A NEW ROLE.

Vanderbilt Posing Before the Public as a
Patron of Art for the Public Benefit
} Perry Belmont on Reform in the Civil
Service.
Gath Letter.
New YORK, Jan. 1.-Wm. II. Vanderbilt,
I was told to-day by a gentleman living
near him, week ago said: eff I can get
from the city of New York the square of
ground on which stands the Catholic orphan
asylum nearly opposite my house, will
spend $5,000,000 in building and in buying
pictures for New York gallery of the best
paintings, and make it a gift in effect to
the people of New York"
asked the gentleman who told me if 1
might use his name. 'Not till ask Mr..
Vanderbilt" he said she might think it
was some self-seeking on my part for the
honor of announcing the facts I gave you,
and it is the first intelligence of such a
matter being on his mind"
"What is the situation of that property
asked.
The square belongs to the city of New
York, and is leased, understand, for 81 a
year to the Roman Catholic Benevolent So
ciety. The lease was obtained from the
council in 1916. There were 450 feet in
the front of it. The Catholics put up an
ugly four story building there 1851,
which is tbs last great eyesore on Fifth
avenue. At that time Fifth avenue was a
street of shanties. In 1857 the Tweed ele-
ment gave another piece of ground on the
same nominal terms. Here building two
hundred feet long was finished in 1868.
The legislature gave the orphan asylum
$4,000 year. Mr.. Vanderbilt probably
expects that the city will
in some way compromise with the
orphan asylum authorities, and gave them
another situation and lease the ground to
his art directors. am only guessing at
this feature of the subject, but he told me
that if he could get the plat ne would spend
$5,000,OG0 on an institution. This would
make one of the noblest picture galleries
in the world"
Perry Belmont being dined Saturday
night says: "The only plausible objection
being offered to the reform of the civil ser
vice has its roots in the enduring necessity
of keeping the policy and conduct of the
executive at Albany, as well as at Wash
ington, under the control of public opin-
ion. To that end the executive.
OF governor, who is chosen
by the people, must have and
preserve the right and power to remove
from Office at his pleasure all those high
officials who come by the scope of their
Office and authority, directly into contact
SO to speak, with the executive. This con-
sideration may at first seem to counter and
impede the reform of the civil service. It
in fact, enforces as I think, the necessity
Of true civil service reform. If changes
are TO be made suddenly in the course Of
the ship of state under the pressure OF
the breezes of public opinion, the crew
the boatswains, the petty officers, the sea
men, must be trained and experienced
men, each man knowing his post
This is 30 true that fol-
years the public business ha.
really got itself done very mush by a sort
of unreeognized civil service force, which
you don't hear much of in the papers, but
the existence of the efficiency of each ont
soon learns, in practical public life, te
recoQnize.n

A SHAMEFUL RECORD.

The Diminution of Our Ocean Shipments
as Shown by the Years Statistics.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-The annual report
of the bureau of statistics in the foreign
commerce of the United States for the
fiscal year 1882 has been printed. No
official document ever published by the
government in times of peace and plenty
contains more humiliating array of facts
and figures than these compiled by Mr..
Nemmo in this report. In 1856 the total
tonnage of sail and steam vessels entered
at sea ports in the United States from
foreign countries was 4,484,038 tons. In
1882 it was ii, $50, 499 tons. The tonnage
of American steam and sailing vessels
entered at ports of the United States from
foreign countries in 1856 was 3,194, 275
tons. The tonnage of foreign vessel
entered at our ports during that year was
1853, 1853. The tonnage of American steam
and sailing vessels entered at our ports
from foreign countries in 1882 was $685.
290 tons, while the foreign tonnage en-
tered during this year was 1858, 209 tons.
The tonnage of vessels entered of every
nationality save the United States exhibits
an increase. The increase in British ton
uage entered since 1856 amounts to 6,744,-
O93 tons, while the decrease in American
tonnage has been 295,9S5 tons. In 1856
vessels of this country carried 1872 per
cent. of the total value of imports and ex.
&c
such merchandise. The total value of
merchandise imported and exported from
the United States in 1856 was $641, 604, $50;
in 1882 the total value of such imports and
exports was s 1866, OF, 200.

The Republican caucuses for the selec-
ton of officers of the two houses were held
last evening in the respective chambers of
two the bodies in the new capitol-the
first public meeting of any kind
in either-in short their dedication
to the purposes for which designed. AS
anticipated both chambers, under the rays
of the numerous gas gets, presented very
cheerful and pleasant appearance, but
while neither body had its full complement
of members in attendance, it was demon
strated that both were too small,
especially the Senate chamber,
where the desks have to be set disagree
ably close, with very narrow passage ways.
and even then, not leaving any space on
the floor for the accommodation of the re-
porters. The mistake in making the cham
bers so small is most unfortunate, but it
will have to be borne with as good grace
as possible.
AS predicted in the GLOBE report yester-
day, the figuring and combining through
out the day preceding the meeting of the
caucus. resulted in agreeing upon slate as
to most of the officers, so that many of the
selections were made by reclamation,
and in cases when contests were made,the
were exceedingly tame and soon decided.

The house caucus met at p. m, and

but declining Capt Collins was elected.
