what Makes II Awkward.

ouitAlholc bhA1 E'oMos
Amateur military critics will no doubt
/ be able to.show with their usual sagacity
how the war in the east should be con-
Quoted and to point out the mistakes
made by the different generals, but dis
cussion of the subject in conversation
will be attended, probably, by some de-
gree of awkwardness. Even with the aid
of map it will be hard to make things
clear when there are such distractions to
wrestle with as the Bulgarian and Servian
names. The most accomplished war
authority will find his mouth getting
tangled when he undertakes TO deal
with forces retiring from Tn,
taking position ut Dastcheni and
Zvoutzi and entrenching at Bewskedol.
These are pretty names and have a tempt
ing look in the dispatches, but it must be
confessed that in the hurry of conversa-
ton they are difficult to handle. 1t is
plain now since the fighting of last week
that it was right and proper for Colonel
Topalovitch with the Moravian division
to operate against Tn, while Major
Djuknitch led the Timok division against
Belogradshik. Anybody with half an eye
can see this when it is mentioned also
that General Jowanovitch held the resery.
force ut Bala Palnk. Still when you &c
TO explain il verbally kind of confusion
ensues. Under these circumstances it il
likely that the war as topic for general
conversation will hardly be popular, I'M
less the American mouth be readjusted.

The People are Satisfied.

Columbus, Ga, Enquirer-Sun.
The mass of Mr.. Cleveland's party,
however, do not question for a moment
his democracy. The people are satisfied
with his administration and willingly trust
him to manage the reins of government.
Thus far he has retained the confidence
of the whole country, and all patriotic
people firmly believe that he will continue
TODD SO. He has used and isstill using the
appointing power judiciously and has not
hurriedly made changes that might prove
detrimental to the best interests of the
country, but he is steadily and surely
turning the rascals out. He fully recog-
nizes the fact that to give the country an
honest Democratic administration honest
Democrats must fill the principal offices,
and we have every reason to believe that
he is working to this end.

BALTrMoRE, Nov. 19.--In the United
States court here Judge Morris had de-
cided in the case of H. Gates Smith of
ohartestown, W. Va, against B. G. Dun
q Co., for libel, that the plaintiff must
furnish bill of particulars within 80
days as to when, where, how,
and to whom the alleged ibellous
publication was made. This decision in
the United States court is important,
as confirming similar findings in the
various state courts to the effect that in
order to make privileged communication
libellous the party obtaining the report
from the mercantile agencies must be
disclosed. Inasinuch as the subscribers
to an agency who divulges the informa
ton may thus be made jointly liable b,
the violation of his contract with the
agency, the Importance of the decision
can easily be seen.

PITTsBuRG, Nov. 20.-An improvement
has been made on the bessemer steel pro-
cess at the Edgar Thompson steel works
which it is said will have the effect of
making bessemer steel equal in quality to
crucible steel, while it will cost only
about one-tenth of the price. The change
consists in thorough mixing of spiegel
iron or manganese with molten iron in 0
ladle so as to uniformly carbonize it.
Bessemer steel can be produced at cost
of cent to cent and a-half per pound
while that made in crucibles costs at leas
IL cents per pound.
