GLADSTONE I'm CLOVER.
Latest Indications Point to a Certain
Liberal Majority.

Special to the Globe
LONDON. Dec. 25.-I have high authority
tonight for stating that the canvass of
members Of parliament is practically COM
plete, and Mr.. Gladstone now commands an
assured majority beyond all question over
any possible combination of Wings and
Tories for any generous measure of home
rule to Ireland that he may take the re-
sponsibility of introducing into parliament.
Lord Richard Grosvenor, the Liberal Whig,
would be in a position, if the house
of commons were sitting tonight and
a vote was taken on the bill, to bring into
the division lobby with Gladstone and Par
nell sufficient number of members of par
lament to outvote every member of the
Liberal party claimed by Chamberlain, Dixie
and Harrington as their personal following
remaining unpledged to Gladstone, added
to the entire rank and file of the party, and
Buckshot Forster and Money-bags GoSchen
besides. The editors Of London dailies have
been placed in possession of the facts. The
clique of whom the Tories are the mouth
piece are furious and threaten
EXTREME MEASURES.
One of Gladstone's leading supporters ex-
pressed himself tonight as confident from
an analysis of the election returns and the
list of members now fully pledged to Glad
stone that an appeal to the country by
Gladstone for the mandate of the English
people to give Ireland parliament would
be responded to by an overwhelming ma
jority without single Irish vote. The
members absolutely pledged to Gladstone
give an assured majority of fourteen or a
division over the entire house, counting
every vote going into the other lobby. Of the
Will Probably Resign.
PARIS, Dec. 25.-A majority of the
newspapers here predict that the Brisson
ministry will resign after the session of the
chambers is renewed in favor of NJ. De
Freycinet. NJ. Ferry writes to the Temps
that in the debate ON the Tonquin credit
yesterday, NJ. Clemenceau misrepresented
him by reading only portion of the dis
patch sent by him to Baron De Courcel,
the French minister to Germany. in reply
to dispatch from the latter conveying an
offer made by Prince Bismarck. to act as
mediator between France and China. NJ.
Ferry says that if the whole dispatch had
been read it would have been shown that
the dispatch was written before the disaster
to the French troops at LangSon.

MUNICATIONs.
The High Schools.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL COURIER:
 Common Sense" in the COURIER yesterday morning presents the case of 4 ,000 taxpayers ''whose entire income does not exceed $1 ,00O per annum, "and inquiries, Els it not gross in justice to tax these people to support High schoolg' His question has suggested to me a sum in arithmetic, whose solution herewith hand you.
 Promising that incomes are not taxed at all, but only property, so that the salaried man and the laboring man are not concerned with this conundrum, save as he is proper ty holder, I take up my sum in arithmetic. Upon a tax list of $1 ,OO0 the school tax of last year was three mills The supposed tax payer would then pay $3 toward the support of our schools, of which Approximate lD $2.7O would go to the support cents to that of the High school. Whether our taxpayer has one child only or more, the district is educating his child or children, if in the grammar schools, at $2. 70 per year, or, if in the High school at 30 cents year. Can he give his young family any mere for the money in any other way? Or any better outfit for the du- ties of their mature years st any less costa
 There are. in round numbers, five hundred children being to-day educated in the High school fair proportion of whom are the children of taxpayers on lists of $1, 1,O00 or whereabouts, and of others "whose entire in come does not exceed $1 ,000 per annum." It is not the fault of the Board of Education that more of this class are not there, for the High school education is free to all the citi- zens of New Haven, whether taxpayers or not. But, in my judgment, it is the misfortune of both parents and children that their circumstances forbid the children to avail themselves of this opportu- nity to enlarge their stock of information 8 misfortune whose consequences will meet them in active life. I believe that a good education-the best is none too good-is the best outfit that any boy or girl who is to make his or her own way in the world can receive from their parents do not, therefore, agree with Common Sensen that "the whole thing is crime"
 As to the question of salaries raised by your correspondent, I suggest that the law of supply and demand controls that ques- tion. Principals can be had for $1 900 per year, or even less. But query whether the New Haven school district would be satisfied with the service which that salary would secure. At any rate, the boards of educa- ton for the last twenty years or more have not acted on that idea, and the district seems to have been satisfied with their action.

ARBITRATION

ARBITRATION.
 Massachusetts has frst-class bureau of labor statistics, but this bureau has not yet succeeded in solving the labor problem Therefore new experiment is on foot A bill has been debated in the legislature which provides for the establishment of court of arbitration to settle difficulties between labor and capital. The bill provides for the crea-, tiop. of board of three commissioners to be appointed by the governor, and that the duty of these commissioners shall be to go wherever invited in the State, hear state nents of differences between employers and employed, and advise as to the merits of the cases. This is very simple plan, but it seems
 calculated to work well, judging from the experience with arbitration which has been
 had in England. Three acts, of each of
 which much was expected, have been passed
 by the British parliament But none of them
 has worked we'll because they all provide
 that the judgment of the arbitrators shall be final and enforceable at law. But voluntary arbitration and conciliation have been very successful in England, and would probably
 be so here. As the Boston Herald suggests: If an official board could be established, be- fore which complaints could be brought, and which could examine the matters submitted to it in an impartial maprer, and make re- ports upon them, although the board might have no power to enforce a correction even of admitted evils, the publicity thus secured would go long way toward correcting the abuses complained of. At the present time, when a contest arises between corporation or an individual who employs large num- Der of operatives and those who working for him, the statements made by one side are ordinarily directly contracted by the other, and the pub lie has no means of drawing correct con-. ciusions. This leads to class antagonism, which might be in large degree prevented if clear and impartial presentation of the actual facts of the case could be made. Even the most arbitrary corporation is amenable to the pressure of an adverse public opin- ion when that opinion is based upon 8 thorough knowledge of the questions in dis pute.
 It is to be hoped that the proposed bill will become law and that the plan will receive fair trial. Arbitration is better than strikes

were embedded the trunk of Scotch fir, six feet in height, with the bark upon it; pieces of elm, oak and hazel, with nuts and cones, broken antlers and various coleopterous re- mains. In a quantity of the moss placed under glass the cranberry and other plants have begun to germinate after 8 sleep of cen turies. The spot, which is now in the heart of the town, is supposed to have formed part of the bed of 8 lock in prehistoric times, and three centuries ago mill-dam was con- structed at the place, which was then a mo- rass. The bed of conglomerate on which the peat and other top layers rest has been found to contain large fragments of red granite, rock which is not known to exist in the immediate vicinity
 The season for summer stories has opened well. A man calling himself T. c. Pyle, who is teaching school in the mountains of Ten nessee, in 8 letter to an Ohio paper graphi- cally describes the finding of a cave by 8 party of railway engineers. The cave was explored for considerable distance. At the entrance was discovered an inscription in Hebrew characters. After passing some 300 yards into the cave it enlarged into great amphitheatre Still further in the cave was found an appalling sight that struck terror to the hearts of the explorers. There, on the right and left and in front, were thousands of grinning skeletons, encased in brass ar nor, with ponderous shields. Not less than 5000 skeletons were seen, each of which was reclining on his shield. They presented the appearance of men killed in battle, who had been brought.t there for burial. A large brass box contained mazDuscript giving an account of their wanderings. According to this yer acious chronicler, Tennessee holds the re- mains of the lost tribes of Israel.
 The American Protestant league asserts that the Roman Catholics, under direct or ders from Rome, and immediately directed by Cardinal McCloskey, have gone very far in systematic effort to capture Washington as centre of political influence. The evi- dence cited in support of that view is the i'm mense requirement of property by the church in the District of Columbia. Sites for schools, convents, colleges, churches and asylums have been purchased there greatly in advance of actual needs; and now sixty five acres of ground have been bought for the projected seminary, to found which a Catholic lady recently gave $500, 900 as be- ginning. The institution is to be under the management of the Jesuits. The active con- troller of all the concerns, however, is the Archbishop of Baltimore, in whose diocese is the capital and who is to-day the heaviest individual owner of real estate in Washing ton. In all this the league sees determine ton on the part of the Roman Catholics to make Washington their potent American centre

1rlJ Goods.
Other Things as Cheap as
 the Books.

We can sell dry goods just as cheap as books, and good many of them are cheaper to- day than the last time you looked at them. That's the way nowadays.
 All our 121ac. and 15c. Chambrays down to 1oc. That sort of thing is not quite pleas ing to those who bought them of us or of other dealers last week at the former prices. But we can't help it.
 Those soc. Homespuns are as cheap as the books think of it-a 40 inch, elegant, stylish locking, rough cloth for soc. a yard.
 And the Silk and Wool Pon- gees at 65c.-silver gray and brown mixed-how often have you paid $1 for just such goodse
 The gentlemen's Summer Scarfs you will see exhibited near our east door you will quickly recognize as similar to other displays up and down the street; but you will find on in quiry at the counter that you can have three of them for soc, while they are asking 25c. each for them in other places.
 We have Pique Scarfs at 25c. a dozen-yes, that "dosen" is not a printers mistake-25c. dozen-white ones included if desired. -
 Here's one of the things we have to do occasionally. We, have gathered together out of all the corners a mixed lot of ill-assorted sizes and various kinds of Children's Summer Undervests, and have laid them out on a table from which you may take your choice at I5c. There's not a single one there that didn't cost us more than that, some of them much more.
 Nottingham and Madras Lace Curtains are in the rear of the store near where the books are, and they (the Curtains) you will find to be almost as cheap as the books. They are cheap in a different way, however. The books, incredible as it may seem, pay us profit; but we are sor- ry to say the curtains don't. We had somehow got in too large a stock of them, and-you know the rest. If you need any, come now while we are at it, and get your share of the
