LONDON, Eng, Jan. 2, 1888
People wondered greatly who would b,
the new archbishop of Canterbury, a!
there were at least four names of eminen,
chuIc hmen mentioned who were though,
to have equal chances of taking the high.
est post in the church of England. The
choice has fallen upon one. perhaps, less
known to the general public than Others
VINO were mentioned; but it, rs great
drama'ist has told US, "the world knows
nothing of its greatest men," so in the
world of the church there are silen
workers well qualified, by their energy,
learning, eloquence and piety, to fill the
nigh position even of primate; and it is
generally admitted that the new archbishop
is one of these. DR.. Benson, bisbop of
Truro, has been one of the most vioorous
defenders of the church, and he has manv
friends among the high church party, who
will, OF course, claim him for their own
1t is, however, not likely that the extreme
section OF this party will find in him n
very warm advocate. DR.. Benson's great
idea, and perhaps the idea that gained
him this high position, is to endeavor tn
make the church more popular. He has
often declared that his ambition was to
bring those TO the church of England who
had previously gone to no church at
all.
The cabinet will be almost entirely re-.
constructed for the parliamentary cam.
raign, and Mr.. Gladstone no lon5er
represents the two chief posts in the
ministry, having resigned that of chancellor
Of the exchequer. The modest post to be
Tiled by Lord Derby will probably take
some foreign critics of our policy by
surprise; but it is not the actual post that
Lord Derby takes, but his presence in the
LIBERAL cabinet that will tend to strengtbon
t, and give the ministry additional infu.
nee in the country. 1t is not, however
expected that the arrangement Just made
Till continue. The great difficulty in such
hanges is to get the right men in the right
laces.

The NeMhalI Fire.

The appalling calamity which, according
TO latest advices destroyed ono hundred
lives at Milwaukee last week, should be Il
lesson whose teachings should not be lost.
Modern buildings give new forms OF
danger, and should be met by safeguards
that were not thought necessary in older
times.
The Newhal House was brick building
1870 feet on one street and 100 feet on
another. with but two brick partitions. 1t
was six stories high, and of course had its
elevator, or vertical railway" as it is
getting to be called. An elevator is handy
to have sometimes, but when there is Il
fire its course is often the highway that a
fire runs through from basement to top OF
the building.
OF the 1870 people in the Ncwhall wien
the fire broke out about so a!e known to
have escaped. The horrors that were seen
on the outside of the building where
people jumped or fell to the sidewalks or
disappeared from windows into the flames
within were rivalled by mysterious oeaths
in the halls filled with smoke and flame.
1t is known that people were killed by
the flames in halls through which Other
people from five to ten minutes after fled
and escaped. Some of those saved CROPPED
their way over dead bodies on their way
out, and it is thought that those who first
rushed into the halls were most surely
lost.
The suddenness of the deadly fire is
shown by the fact that a servant who had
shown lawyer T. B. Elliott to his room
found smoke on the fourth and third floors
on his return, and on getting TO the second
or first floor barely made his own escape.
There are two theories to account for the
suddenness of the spread of the flames.
Mr.. Tice, the chief clerk, thinks a wood
or lumber room near the elevator wasthe
place where the fire started and that the
elevator way made a passage for it to the
several floors. But the belief most general i
in Milwaukee is that the fire caught in or
near tho liquor room, which was on the |
first floor and that in this room, which |
was open as late as two O'Clock that |
morning, the flames were fed by the com
bustible liquors and given the sudden and
deadly quality that at once carried them
through the halls and killed those who
rushed into the hall at the very first while
those who were slower in getting from
their rooms found it possible to make their
escape through the very passage way
that were deadly with flames few min
utes before,
The loss OF life on the part of those who
were at the upper windows might easily
have been prevented had the hotel been
furnished with that most simple of all fire
escapes, strong knotted rope long enough
to have reached from the window 20 the
sidewalk. 1t is strange that this simple
device is not furnished in all high and
large hotels in the cities, and it is TO be
hoped that hereafter it will not be want
