Electric Motors on street-Cars.

The number of competitors that have
lately entered fields once given over ex-
clusively to the equine family must be
rather alarming. First it was the
steam railway. then the bicycle and
tricvcle, and now the cable and electric
railways. If matters go on at this
rate, the horse will soon have nothing
to do but devote himself to lowering
the record.
The fact that the directors of the Third
avenue surface railway are contemplate
ing the scheme OF propelling their cars
by electricity is significant. 1t indi-
Gates that business men are becoming
aware of what has been known for
sometime in scientific circles, that the
electric railway is no longer and expert
ment, but that it can compete in
efficiency and cheapness with any other
known system of transportation. That
the public generally knows SO little
about it is the result of policy. Inyen-
tors have been unwilling to make their
systems known until all the parts were
thoroughly worked out or until the de-
tails were covered by patents. They
have been suspicious not of the public,
but of rival inventors. AT the same
time, in order to perfect their systems,
it has been absolutely necessary to test
them in actual working railways. AS
a result there has been Il large number
of working systems of electrical trans
portation in this country and in Europe,
about which the public has heard very
little.
Most of the systems that have been
successful and satisfactorily operated
for amy considerable lcnglh Of time
carry the electrical current along CON
ductors laid in a conduit between the
rails or along suspended conductors,
and do not draw from storage or other
batteries upon the ira itself. When
the track is laid with the central con-
duit it presents much the same appear
ance Us the track OF u cable railway.
1t is understood that the Third avenue
line viii use atrack of this kind.
Electro railways are running in va
rious parts of the United States and
Europe There is, or has been. one at
Vienna. and one ut Antwerp, and
others ut various places. In the Ant
werp system the motive power is de-
rived from storage batteries located
underneath the cars. One of the cars
used in the Antwerp tests is said to be
on its way across the Atlantic to be ex-
hibited in this city.
The action of the Third avenue rail
way directors is to be hailed with salts
faction. The world moves, and the
prospect is that the world will hereafter
be assisted in moving by electricity. II
there were any doubt about the success
of the electric railway for heavy work,
with large number of trains, the test
here at Third avenue would be &
decisive one and we'll worth the max,

That highly successful satirical journal, Puck, has generally been found on the side of the People and of the Right. It has, however, made very bad break on the silver question, having published sev- eral far-fetched cartoons, intended to show that we are in danger of ruin, through a glut of silver dollars. The suppositisn is that Puck has been subsi- dized by the gold bugs. If such is the case, our sprightly contemporary will lose more than it makes by the operation. "What fools these mortals bel"

Evarts and the Gold Bugs.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-Senator Evarts position on the silver question is still the cause of much anxiety among merchants and bankers here. A letter signed by sixty principal firms has been addressed to Senator Evarts declaring that it is of the utmost importance for the country that the present compulsory coinage of silver should be suspended, and begging him to exert his great influence in the senate to that end. All accounts re- present Evarts as closely studying the question and carefully avoiding commit ing himself, but the friends of silver coin age count him among the senators favor. able to their cause.

Furthermore, it says that Cleveland is re- sponsible for his party and its policy, and if any impeachment takes place it should be the impeachment of the president.

In another column of this issue will be found the most important Indian news that has been received since the opening of the campaign. The beginning of the end has now been reached, but at what a cost! Brave Captain Crawford, the Hot spur of the frontier army, the man who unlike many of his brother officers-had "lost" Apaches and wanted 10 find them, has fallen victim to one of those fatal blunders, which have marked every step of this most disastrous campaign, from the commencement.
 The hostiles, we are informed, are worn out and want to surrender. It is the old, old story, over again. After nearly a year of murder, outrage and plunder, these ravaging beasts find them. selves hard pressed and desire to be taken into training again, until such time as they feel once more ready to pursue their bloody work. There can be but one possible course to follow with these fends, whenever they come into the power of white men and that is very simple one-the end of rope. We will not. for a moment, so far insult General Crook, as to believe that he would again attemp. any treaty or half measures with these red-handed murderers. The peo- pie of this territory have exhibited marve lous patience under great and frequent provocation, have heard themselves pub iicly branded as outlaws, have seen their families butchered and their property de- stroyed. They have seen all this and have stayed their hands. There is, how ever, one thing which would prove the last straw to break the back of their en- durance and that would be the attempt to barley with these monsters in human shape, who have wrought all this havoc.
