war" Gen. Abbott gave the history of va
rious explosives, dividing them into five
classes. He said, incidentally: "Although
hardly professional question, few re-
marks upon the problem pre-
seLtcd By the murderous abuses of these
new agents now startling the world may not
be out of place. That such attempts should
be suppressed by the strong arm of the law,
admits of no question. How can this be
best accom- plished7 The anarchists can easily
obtain high the explosives that are so gener-
ally used, and easily manufactured. The
law has signally failed TO prevent carrying
concealed weapons, and, IN my judgment,
will be equally powerless to extend needed
security by restriction upon the sale and
possession. The remedy must go deeper.
Why not declare by interna tional agreement
that those attempts, like piracy, are
CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY
Why not place the operators, with their
instigators and abettors, beyond the pale Of
the law, and subject them to arrest and de-
livery, upon proper requisition, wherever
they may be found! When a wretch, or
even a misguided fanatic, is made to ap-
preciate that no where in the wide world can
he find place of refuge, but that justice,
aided by all the powers of telegraph, rail
roads and ocean steamships, will follow his
trail like bloodhound, and that his capt
ure and punishment are only mat
tiers of time. I cannot but be-
lieve the beginning of the end will
be at hand. A bill has been introduced in
the lower house of the Pennsylvania legisla-
ture imposing penalty not exceeding s10,-
900. and fine not exceeding $1,000, for
selling, transporting, or using dynamite for
other than legitimate purposes, an also for
contributing to any dynamite fund or for
soliciting contributions for such fund. Such
law l believe to truly represent tine feeling
of the vast majority of the American people,"

MONTREAL, Feb. 12-It Is asserted that the
Canadian Pacific Railway syndicate will ask
the Dominion government to guarantee in
terest for fifteen years on bonds of the
company at SO much per mile to enable them
to properly equip the road. The company
is also negotiating for the construction of n
short line railroad from Montreal to the Nova
Scotia seaboard. A part of the scheme is to
take over the North Shore railway from Mont
real to Quebec, now controlled by the Grand
Trunk. 1t is not likely that the Grand
Trunk will surrender this unless the Can adian
Pacific abandon their idea of bridging the
St. Lawrence at Lachine. From this it is
inferred that if the Grand Trunk moves out
of the territory north of the river, east of
Montreal, it will expect the Canadian Pacific
to keep out of the territory south of the river.
In that case the Southwestern and the Pass
umpsic as creditors, will have to pay tribute
to tie Grand Trunk on its passenger traffic
at least, for the privilege of crossing the
Victoria bridge. 1t is less important for the
Canadian Pacific to run to Quebec and the
maritime provinces though it is to run into
New EnglaI I'd. For six months In the year
the Canadian Pacific will find very little BUSH
ness to do by the former route.

Scalpers' Connissions.

The question Of scalpers com missions will
probably be considered By the Western asso-
at their meeting now being held In Louis
vile. The scalper is undoubtedly at the bot
tom Of much Of the present trouble existing
with regard to passenger rates. In Chicago
one Of the chief points under dispute is
whether scalpers shall be openly COM mis-
stoned By the railroad com panies. They
apparently consider them au attachment of
the ticket department. In ST. Paul the agents
are more circumspect, but they nevertheless
have their favorite scalper and pay him a
commission for all the business he does.
The scalper has sometimes been considered
a necessity, though his business is not
at all legitimate and sometimes extremely
demoraIizing.
