A Report on Railroad AxIes.

A special committee on railroad axles
has reported that iron axles are safer than
steel axles; that all cranks should have
the webs hoped; that as iron cranks ap-
pear to fail after running some 100000
miles, and steel after 10000, it is highly
desirable that they should be taken of
and not again used on passenger engines;
and that crank axles, properly construct
ed, are as strong as straight axles.-Cht-

The presidents message is producing
sectional division at Washington. AS
correspondent puts it:
The east ls satisfied on the recon-
mendatlon effecting finances and con-
demn those upon the tariff, while In the
west it is the reverse of the order. It
is strange but true that scarcely demo-
crat or republican Can be found but
who will point out some serious objeo
tion in the message, This is explained
by the democrats who say there ia q
division in the party on the two issues,
tariff and finances, while there are other
obstinate contentious in the party over
civil service reform.
Congressman Watson, OF Indiana,
chairman of the pensions committee,
announces in an interview that in the
light of the presidents message tariff
reform is much more urgent than pen
sion legislation. Public opinion takes
no new stand IN Washington. The
friends of the president commend the
message and those not his friends con-
denim it. No political line is drawn be.
tween favor and disfavor.

Detecting Leaks in Mains.

The miorophone is now used in
Germeny for the purpose of detecting
loss of water through leakage in town
mains. The apparatus consists OF steel
rod, which is placed upon She cock in
the neighborhood OF which the leak Is
suspected, end microphone attached to
the upper end Of the rod. A dry battery
and q telephone complete the equipment.
No sound is heard in the telephone if
the cooks are closed and no leak occnrs :
but q leak of even few drops causes
sufficient vibration in the pipe to affect
the microphone and give audible sounds
in the telephone. At the recent meeting
OF gas and water engineers in Eisenach
il was stated that the sppsratus is 80
simple to handle that with little
practice ordinary workmen are able to
detect and localize any leak,

THE MESSAGE.

Comments of the New York Press
Upon the Presidential Document.
New York. Dec. 7-At the end OF q
long review of the presidents messag
the Times says: "On the whole the mes
sage is one to which hardly, an except
tion can fairly be taken, being imp reten.
tious. patriotic, straightforward and
business like"
The World says: "Sound as most OF
the president 3 suggestlons are, it is to be
regretted that his making of them Is
likely to have SO little effect upon con .
gress. When Speaker Carlisle can cay
that he was not consulted in regard to
the message and knew nothing whatever
IN advance concerning it's recommen-
| dations and similar ignorance was felt
by other democratic leaders in congress,
the same unfortunate state of affairs
that prevented action at the
| last session 10 seen to be
Hsill extant. 1t is unfortunate that
President Cleveland has not seen fit
to place himself in confidential and
mutually helpful relations with the
| leaders OF his party in congress or with
other opponents of democratic sentiment.
! Itis only by the active corporation OF its
leaders that party sScye:nmsnszcaa he
made successful. And when the presI-
dent does noS seek, but rather repels,
snch cooperation, there is little hope of
| harmonious action by the two depart
ments OF the governments. To drop
perfnnctorily personal messages On the
! desks OF members, as newspapers might
| be laid there Is not the manner in
| which early president 4, cognized the
leadership OF the psfl, n,.d their re-
sponsibillties for the promotion of its
principles"
The Tribune says: "In truth it ia not
precisely great message, nor does it
shed much light on events. But, in the
main, it fairly sets forth the opinions
and illustrates the qualifications OF the
party which elected Mr.. Cleveland for
president"
1t is difficult to say what the Sun
thinks of the message. as the following
is the nearest approach to an opinion
expressed: "In method and spirit, and
especially in its careful study OF depart.
ment reports, on which it is largely
based, Mr.. Cievelsnd's second general
message resembles the one sent to con-
gress o year ago.
The Herald says: 1T is good mes.
sage; clear, plain, not too long, and the
facts it sets forth are such as may make
every American justly proud OF his
country and happy that he belongs to it.
Ii the gentlemen in congress will agree
together to carry out Cleveland q
recommendation and suggestions they
will do themselves credit and will stand
better with their constituents and the
country than many Of them do now"
