An American Artist In London.

The New York Commercial Advertiser,
quoting from London daily, states that ''lf
an American travelling in England desires
to know how the United States are affect
ing dramatic art and music in the English
metropolis he need only stroll into any
high class theater or concert hall in London
at the present time.n
Among the American artists who are dis
tinguishing themselves In the musical world
We note with pleasure the name OF Mile.
Marie Decca, who, under her more attrac-
tive and better known baptismal title Of
Mary Sanders Johnston, is so well known
and appreciated in Washington society.
Miss Johnston has already sung at con-
certs in st. Jamess and st. Georges Halls.
The London press extends the fullest need
Of praise, and, as the practical result OF our
accomplished countrywoman's success, she
has had the offer Of several very profitable
engagements. At the great banquet given
to Mr.. Beecher, in presence Of seventy
guests prominent in art, science, literature,
and politics, Miss Johnston sang three songs
which showed the wonderful range of her
voice: G) "The Last Rose of Summer" (2)
''staccato Polka" (3) "Graham's FAREWELL y
Her voice is an almost perfect soprano,
rich, deep, and powerful, and the Beecher
banqueters greeted each performance with
astorm Of applause.
Radcliffe, the world.famed 1utist, who
has been accompanying solos for more than
twenty years, stated in public that he had
never heard greater soprano. The Able
Liszt spoke in similar terms, and simscoe,
the great musician and critic, solemnly de.
clared that Miss Johnston's voice SHIELD
more tears" than that Of any living singer
Nine. Nevada has shown the new artis
most gratifying attention, and the young
"Italian lady from Washington" enjoys tht
proud distinction of being the center OF al
enthusiastic American circle In London.

WHEN the Indiana Democratic convention
meets next month 1t will afford civil service
reformers an excellent opportunity to observe
how well the Presidents order as to Office
holders is observed in a state which makes no
pretense to admiration Of Mugwumpery. The
convention will be made up of 200 delegates,
and, unless all accounts received from that
quarter are incorrect the federal official will
be a conspicuous object.-ChicdgO Herald.
A few weeks ago there was district con-
vention in Indiana that was fair average
sample of Democratic devotion TO ref orm.

trict put himself at the head Of battalion
Of federal officials, and secured the field for

wrote to this city demanding his pay and
he got It, Letters from him fully proving
this assertion are at the disposal OF the
President If he cares to inspect them. And
not only Indiana, but Ohio tried to do
something handsome at this civil service
matinee In the fourth Indiana district In
ternal Revenue Collector Bishop sent bat
TALON of "the boys" Of Cincinnati, deco
rated with badges aud armed with barrels
OF whisky. These Ohio men opened head
quarters In the town where the convention
was held, and filled rural delegates with
"taffy" and Jelrersonian simplicity. 1t
was great feast Of reform. II was a
glorious exhibition Of JefTersonlau SIM

AS evidence Of the difficulty heretofore
existing Of procuring unbiased testimony
concerning the Greedy expedition we fnd
that Maurice Connell one of the survivors,
had--employing his own words-"to use
the most strenuous exertions" to recover
his diary from the War Department. al
though that diary was absolutely private
property, Moreover, It is only within
few weeks, even after all this trouble, that
Connell succeeded in obtaining It. In the
case Of Mrs. DR.. Pavy It is well known
through her statements in the North Amcr-
ican Rericw that she has not yet received
the most valuable papers belonging to her
husband, and that they have been officially
designated as missing records, notwith-
standing she has written proofs of their ex-
istence at the time OF her husbands
death. Those papers are still unreported
During the last few months having ap-
piled through her attorney, Judge Upton,
for the remaining records Of her husband
the judge was refused them. Later, al
though Mrs, Pavy was In Washington and
Judge Upton represented her legally, the
remaining papers Of DR.. Pavy were sent to
a lawyer in New York city who had never
furnished power Of attorney to the de
partment and had received none by Mrs.
Pavy's authority. This laxlty on the part
Of Gen. Hazen provided the New York
lawyer with the opportunity to attempt to
extort an unauthorized fee, which he
promptly did by demanding from Mrs. Pavy
500 for the official journals of her husband,
although the department had sent all orig
Wallpapers to the survivors or their legalrep-
resentatives, the government merely retain
ing copies. Mrs. Pavy being unable to pay
that sum the lawyer still retains the papers

Mr.. GLADSTONE is running, It is said, wait

WITH reference to the conflicting testl-
mony Of Maurice Connell, of San Francisco,
and Julius r. Fredericks, Of indianapolis,
in the Greely expedition matter, 1t must be
borne in mind that until both men have
been put on oath and rigldly cross-exam-
ined, the evidence of one man is, primd
.facie, as valuable as that Of the other. 1t
is also worth remembering that Maurice
Connell is an intelligent young man Of high

THE Democratic estimate Of the majority
in the House Of Representatives is fairly
sampled by this brief clipping from the
New York Nc,cs:
The Inauguration of n Democratic President,
after quarter ofn century of Republican rule,
ought TO have inspired the Democracy in Con-
gross and throughout the land TO united effort
and a concentration Of action to maintain the
nsccndency attained with 30 much difficulty
and at the very verge Of failure. This inspira-
tion to concord has not prevailed with the
congressional Democracy. There has been a
playing at cross purposes on the part OF lead
ers, a division in the ranks, and a consequent
sacrifice Of the prestige and power with which
the representatives Of the party went into the
national legislature.
Twas ever thus and always will be with
that organization. The simple truth Is that
the Democratic party Of our time is n ride
ulous anachronism. 1t once had great mis-
sion--to uphold the institution of slavery.
When it's idol died the party ought to have
closed the shop and put up the shutters.
Its life for the last twenty-five years has
been q badly conceived farce.

The Lowest Ever Known.
Railway Age. ]


Steel rails In England have reached the
lowest price ever known, being quoted
down to S1573, decline Of between IS and
50 since Jan. l. The cause of this great de-
cline was the breaking up of the lnternation-
al Steel Rail Makers Association. Had the
proposedreductio Of our duty on railslto Sl4
teen carried the result, as the Americdn Man
ngdcturer well says, coupled with the reduc-
tion In prices abroad, would not have been
pleasant to contemplate. 1t would have
enabled manufacturers Of foreign rails to
flood our markets at the same time that the
cost Of manufacture had been increased, by
advance In labor and material, from Is to
20 per cent. 1t is needless TO add that as
soon as foreign manufacturers had been
able to close up American rail mills by
selling at less than cost they would have
raised their prices, so that the advantage
gained by purchasers here would have
proved only temporary. Our railroads
would be among the greatest sufferers from
the destruction of the steel rail interest by
unrestricted foreign competition.
