ADvICEs from Vienna state that the
Empress OF Austria has been attacked
by the Wittelsbach family malsdy,
namely, insanity. She suffers from
long spells of melancholic and enter
tains delusions, accusing herself of the
death of Crown Prince Rudolph. She
is possessed with ideas OF suicide, think
ing to leave the Emperor free to re-
marry. Sometimes she dandles a
cushion or pillow. thinking it new

affairs.

THE recent reduction of wages says
the New York Times in the mills OF the
Clark Thread Company near Newark
and the strike caused by it recall
some incidents OF the Presidential cams
paign. The manufacturers of spool
cotton thread are protected by a tariff
duty of II cents per dozen spOols of 200
yards each, which was equivalent in
the last fiscal year to an ad valorem
duty of 81 per cent. 1t was proposed
in the Mills bill that the duty should be
reduced to 40 per cent. Although by
their own admission the manufacturers
had been in combination for some years
so far as prices were concerned, and
and had thus sought by preventing COM
petition in prices to take all possible
advantage OF a high rate OF duty, this
rate remained unchanged in the Allison
bill. Senator Sherman had declared
that such combinations ''may and ought
to be met by a reduction of duty" but
he conveniently forgot this when the
bill was prepared in his committee.
About two weeks before the election
the thread manufacturers professed 10
be greatly alarmed by the proposed
change of rate in the Mills bill, al
though Congress had adjourned and
every body knew that the bill had not
become law and could not become one
so long as the Senate should be controll-
ed by the Republican party. On Oeto-
Der 26 there was posted in the factories
OF the Clark Thread Company at Ne
wark a notice that until further orders
the mills would be closed all day on
Saturdays and after O'Clock on all
other working days of the week. It is
said by the owners that this action had
been caused by the Mills bill, although
it " as not explained in what Way the
bill could have had this effect. 1. was
also said that similar action had been
taken il the other thread factories that
had been governed by IAN understand
ing as to prices"
There was no indication that the con-
sumption of thread had suddenly fallen
off, and an impression prevailed among
the employees that the reduction OF
time had been made for political effect.
The Chairman of the Democratic Com
mittee OF Essex county asserted that
some of the employees had been threat
ened with loss OF work if they should
vote the Democratic ticket. There ap.
pears TO have been a desire that the
workmen should believe that they
would suffer loss of wages if the party
favoring reduction of war tariff du-
ties should win.
The party was defeated and the party
that made and supported the Allison
bill was successful, but this has not pre-.
vented a reduction of wages. It does
not appear that a reduction is required
by the condition of the business. In
deed, the company admits that it makes
the reduction simply because the work
men affected by it have been receiving
better wages than are paid 70 other
workmen of the same grade in another
city. The tariff has not been changed, =,
the combination by which a high price
for thread has been maintained has not
been broken, but the manufacturers
who were so solieitous for the welfare
of the workingmen when their votes
were soon TO be cast for or against the
high duties that afford shelter for com
oinations have not been restrained from
cutting down their wages.

THE overhead wires and the poles which
have converted many of the chief streets of
New York into a forest, dangerous to hu-
man life and contributing to the destruction
OF property, began TO disappear on Tuesday,
not because the proprietors thereof were
willing 10 obey the law, but because Mayor
Grant sent force of men to work to sever
the wires and cut down the poles. The dis.
appearance of these Obstructions will be a
boonito New York, and it is probable that
the same course will be adopted in other
cities, though when the telephone aud other

should prevent the erection OF poles and the

well in moving for their abolition and her
mayor is TO be congratulated upon his dis
play of pluck.

THE NUDE IN ART.
Written fur The Bee.

The attitude of professional artists on the
question of what is fit and what Is unfit for
public exhibition is not well understood, end
is apt to he misconstrued. So much has re-
Gently been said concerning the action of the
trustees of an art museum in Norwich,
Conn, that it may not be without interest to
consider the question somewhat thoroughly.
The world believes that there are simply two
parties-the artists and the art loving, who
arc in favor of nude art upon pertain condi-
tions-and the prurient prudes who are OPP
posed to 1t, and who swathe the legs, no,
limbs, of their pianos. This is totally erron-
eous, for the fact is that artists are as much
divided in their views as the public. AS IA
rule, American artists in America are I'M
bued with the IDEAS which have constantly
prevailed in England, and are opposed to
nude pictures unless an extraordinary
amount of ability is shown. In all
the long annals OF the Royal academy
only two men could be certain
that nude pictures from their ateliers would
be accepted, Etty and S%tothard, and IL is an
unwritten law OF the exhibitions that no
nude shall be accepted no matter how mer-
~itorlous, unless it comes from q man who
has at least the rank of an Associate. This
system is obviously based upon the supposi-
ton that very great technical merit lifts an
otherwise Objectionable picture into an ex-
ceptional category. And as only a jury OF
professional men can determine whether any
picture possesses these technical merits IL is
clear that men who are not professional art
lists and who have to pass upon the admission
of nude pictures, will act in accordance with
the practice of the Royal academy of Lon
don, and the National academy Of New
York, IN rejecting them.
But American artists in France. in Mu-
mich, and in Vienna are not in harmony with
these views, and C onsider them Puritanical.
The basis of admission in these countries
rests entirely upon the motive of a picture,
and the artists contend that SO long as the
aim of the artist was evidently pure, his
work should not be excluded because of the
realism which may prevail in it. Til pub
lie generally supposes that French artists are
specially guilty of presenting details OF
nudity which shock those spectators
who are not accustomed To the
freedom of an European brush, but this is
incorrect. The most cynical artists are the
Viennese and the Belgians, whose fidelity TO
nature is absolutely heroic. 1t is clear that
when the motive OF an artist Is in question, a
jury OF men who are not professionals can
be perfectly competent To pass upon the ad-
mission or rejection of contributions But
IL must also be clear that there will be great
diversity Of opinion as to the point where
