these wages they have the liberty to quit.
Such argument is fallaeious, because there is
scarcely any kind of labor but what will com
mand better wages. In the next place, the
kind of labor performed by the railroad en-
ployes is of higher grade and requires more
skill and intelligence than that performed by a
farm hand. There is an immense response
bility also resting upon these people. The
lives of thousands of people and the security
of millions of property are in the hands of
the railroad conductor and brakeman. So
there can be no reason why their wages
should not, in some degree at least, cor
respond with the grade and responsibility OF
the position which they occupy. 1t would
not be going too far if the legislatures should
undertake to regulate by law the wages OF
railroad men. By fixing minimum salary
to each place that must be filed the employees
and directors would have no cause for mis-
understanding, and consequently there
could be no excuse for strikes. The princi-
pie might be carried further and be made to
apply to all corporations and their employees.
Corporations are the creatures of law and con-
sequently there would be no stretch of legal
power in attempting to provide regulations
which would protect the public interest
against such nuisances as strikes have proven
themselves to be.

WASHINGTON, March 26.-The present in
CURRY into the business Of the treasury under

mission appointed to make the examin alton,
with special reference to the simpiication

The association of the new assistant secre-

THE ROYAL GRANDFATHER OF
EUROPE.

Kaiser WILHELM has celebrated his
eighty-eighth anniversary. He goes into
history as by far the oldest of reigning
potentates of the first class. ELIZABETH
failed at 20; the Grand Monarque was gath
cred to his fathers at n; and PIus TX, the
most wonderful of the popes, reached but to
Sc. Of all living sovereigns Kaiser WILL
HELM is the most powerful and conspicuous
in his past achievements. He holds very
dear place in the hearts of his people. And
even those who have left the Fatherlaud, and
have imbibed republican sentiments, and
have the least liking for imperial C.EsARs,
cannot withhold the tribute of affection from
the grand old soldier king.
Although man of war from his youth
the German emperor has not been man OF
blood. Even his imperial crown was not won
through any eagerness for battle. The simple
Teutou Kaiser has ever been conspicuous for
those domestic virtues which have made the
German people famous for their homes
throughout the world and which make the
festivals of German children so pretty and
so pleasant. Germany is name for patriot
ism, courage, good nature and good cheer,
and our own American German citi-
zens have brought with them from the
Fatherland these home pleasures and inno-
cent festivities as precious mementoes of the
old country. And Notwithstanding the eff
forts of fanatical prescrbers to alternate
them we hope to see them remain as alegaey
Of affection to their children forever.
Emperor WILLIAM is entitled to the appel
lation of grandfather of Europe. The prin-
cess royal of England, the eldest daughter Of
VICTORIA, is the wife of FREDERICK WILLIAM,
the crown prince of Germany, the eldest son
and heir of Kaiser WILHELM This princess
of rare accomplishments and virtues will one
day be empress of Germany, when FREDER-
lex WILLIAM and herself take the places now
occupied by WILHELM and AUGUSTA. Queen
VICTORIA is of German origin. and when we
remember that her second son, the duke Of
Edinburg, is married to the sister Of the
present car of Russia, we find a family con-
nectiOn, with Kaiser WILHELM at the head of
it, that ought to be strong enough to keep the
peace of Europe. And as he represents one
of the grandest events Of modern history
the unifcation of Germany in one imperial
league, so may he be the great moral power
to avert the threatened war between the
European states. In all the pages of history
there is no old man more illustrious-''a
king with the virtues of a Priest "a con-
queror with the simplcities of a shepherd''-
than the emperor Of Germany.

BUFFALO, March 26.-The burning of
Music hall and st. Louis church is the topic of
general conversation, and it is looked upon
as one of general misfortune. To add to
the horrors of last night, it was ascertained
this morning that George j. Roth member
OF the fire department, who was last seen on
st. Louis church, lost his life. His charred
remains were found in the debris of the tower.
The body was frightfully burned. He leaves
wife and five children. 1t has been ascer-
tanned that the water in the building, for the
reason OF preventing its freezing, had been
turned Off in the basement. Had it been
lett running the building would probably
have been saved. The losses are placed as
follows: Music hall, $500, 900; Orphans So
ciety, $4,000; Charles f. Henry's restaurant,
$4,000; German Young Mems association
library, $4,000; Mech Bros, $4,000; Nc
Caul Opera company, $40, 900; Frankenstein
& Janter, $4,000; st. Louis church build
ing, 100000; contents Of church. $40, 900.
Insurance upon Music hall, $S5, 5000; on
library, $25, 600. The air is full of rumors
of missing people and possibly a good many
were viewing the fire from the sidewalk when
the front wall fell out and may be under the
ruins. A public fund for rebuilding will be
started soon.

The reform inaugurated by Secretary La
MAR in the interior department of selling off
the carriages and articles of that description,
which have heretofore been kept by the en-
ployes of the department at government ex-
peuse, has met with universal appreciation.
Some idea of the extravagant style of depart
ment officials in this particular may be had
from reading an advertisement in the Wash
ington papers Of the government sale com
meucing to-day 1t Il o'clock at the stables
of the interior department. Among the
articles thus advertised are the following:
Six ine coupes aud coupe rockaways one Berlin
rockaway, one four seat summer carriage, eight
fine coupe and carrisge horses, one mail wagon.
ten sets Of double and single harness, ten horse
blankets, eight horse covers, six 81 blankets,

Durant, millionaire and railroad man, who
lived at % Fifth avenue, was adiudged to be
of unsound mind by a sheriff's jury about
two weeks ago, upon petition of his daughter
Mrs Henry G. Bowers. Mrs. Bowers after

til Tuesday last. On that day

called to take his father out to lunch, prom
isng his sister her father would be at a GER
tain place at a given hour. Mrs. Bowers
sent for her father at the appointed time, but
the latter was not to be found. The daughter
afterward learned that her brother had taken
the old gentleman to his (Howard's) resi-
dence on East Fifty-seventh street, and was
keeping him there. A motion to confirm
the inquisitiou OF the sheriff's Jury, and
for the appointment Of a committee to take
charge Of Mr. Duraut's person and estate
came up in the supreme court to-day. Mrs.
Bowers counsel also asked for an order
compelling the return Of Durant to his
daughters custody, pending the appoint
ment Of the committee. In her petition
Mrs. Bowers claims Frederick G. Durant, an.
other brother, who has managed the estate
Of her father for a long time, is indebted to

THE campaign in the Soudan begins to re-
semble some of our Indian wars. The coun-
try in the neighborhood Of Suakim is said to
be similar to that of the lava beds and some
of the features of the Modoc war are pre-
scented upon large scale in the struggle now
going on. The Arab adopts mode of fight
ing similar to that practiced by the American
Indian. He uses the long range rifle with
which the English manufacturer has so liber-
ally supplied him. Thorn bushes, long grass,
and the broken ground make it an extremely
favorable country for him to harass the Brit
