affected are Of roads which were placed in the
hands of receivers five years ago, and another
considerable proportion date from defaults of 1856.
Though the mileage and amount OF securities
affected are much smaller than in the first half
of 1886 or the first half of 1887, it is not q
slight matter that 575 miles of railway with
s92, 100000 in stocks and bonds have passed
through bankruptcy in six months But the
record of new receiverships is larger, indicating
another rising wave of misfortune to the trans
porting interest. For that misfortune railway
stockholders officials and agents are to q large
extent responsible.
The receivcrships cover $500 miles of railroad,
s6G i5s, 900 Of bonded debt, and s59,l12,O0O of
stocks outstanding, or s125,570, 600 of nominal
capital. The st. Louis, Arkansas and Texas rep
rescnts forty-nne Millions the international and
Great Northern twenty-five millions, and the Chi
cago and Atlantic twenty-one millions. But IL is
also known that other roads Of Importance have
been compelled to default, and applications for
receiverships pending or expected. Still others
are known TO be in difficult position, and their
fate may depend upon the success of not very
promising efforts to avert the wars Of rates which
are again breaking out all over the country One
gloomy railway official, anticipating the failure of
these efforts expects to sec half the railroads Of
the Northwest in the hands Of receivers within
six months. That is eXtravagant, and the prob
able consequences of a renewal of strife are bad
enough without any stretching 1t is only too
likely that the defaults and receivershps of the
last half of 1889 will exceed those of the first half
There is satisfaction in n review of these
facts, and no unless public attention can thus
be directed 70 removable causes. Our principal
cause of difficulty, all know, is the reckless
competition in RAILROAD building, which has ex-
posed many roads in the Northwest to permanent
| loss For some years to come large number Of
railroads will be in unavoidable financial
danger account of this ruinous policy,
| in which many Of them have taken active part.
1t is too late to avert the evil and earnest attempts
to avert or mitigate fhe consequences have not
yet proved entirely successful.
| How far the Interstate Act and State enact,
ments are a cause of present railroad misfortunes
will doubtless remain q disputed point If, as
journals like Tho Chicago Tribune affirm, the
| Interstate Act has produced a general reduction
| in rates for transportation at the West, where
very large proportion of the railroads were preyi-
ously earning little nothing beyond interest on
debt, that reduction must mean disaster to some.
But even if rates have not the whole been
reduced the disturbance of traffic has been great
and it is one important cause of the worst railroad
wars of the past two years

from Egypt and vetoed the conversion OF the
debt.
This policy is described as mean, contempt
ible and unintellgible in England, but it is the
natural result of Mr.. GladstOne's own plumbers.
If France made gross miscalcuation in re-
fusing to Join in the military operations against
Arab the British Government also was seri-
ously at fault in hampering itself with pledges
and in disavowing the intention OF permanent
ly occupying Egypt. There has not been a
wear since Lord Wolseey's victory az Tel-el-
Kebir when evacuation has been practicable {;
vet the pledges cannot be renounced, and the
British Foreign Office is compelled to negotiate
with the Powers on the basis of temporary oc-
cupation. France naturally holds England to
the fulflment of pledges which should never
have been given.

Railroad foreclosures bear to defaults or re-
cciverships the same relation that the fruit does
n the blossom. Years ago, carefully prepared
records of foreclosures used 10 be kept, but IL
WAS soon observed that the maximum years fol-
Iored long after the great financial disasters,
beinp separated by that laws delay" which
has made everybody sick since Shakespeares time.
The panic of 1913 produced foreclosures which
reached their maximum in S7J, but in $40 were
more than five times, in number or amount of
securities affected, the foreclosures Of 1873.
Hence a more sensible effort has been made Of
late wears TO keep some record OF defaults or
recciverships
The first half of SIS presents a record which
is NOT in either aspect encouraging. The fore
closures tell of the serious disasters in 1854, for

THE GYPTIAN JUGGLE.

Egypt is helpless pawn on the diplomatic
chess beard of Europe. 1t is sacrificed when
ever there is a favorable chance either for
facilitating or blocking a combination. NJ.
Spuler, French Minister of Foreign Affairs,
has exercised for political reasons his veto
power upon the conversion Of the Egyptian
debt and thereby deprived the felaheen of the
benefits of a marked saving in interest which
it is estimated ght have been capitalized into
$40, 900 900 available for greatly needed en-
gineering works. Under English administra-
ton the Khedive's credit has gradually inn
proved until the three per cents are now above
mar There is an additional debt of 81 80, OOO,
600 drawing interest at per cent The Brit
ish Government made arrangements with the
Rothschilds for converting this debt into a
four percent loan, and only required the con-
sent of the Treaty Powers to effect saving of
$500 900 year. England had nothing to
gain by the financial operation except the hon
orable reputation of improving the condition
of the fellaheen. France had nothing to lose
in the substitution of a lower for higher rate
Of interest; but her consent is withheld after
all the other Powers have acquieSced in the ar
rangement NJ. Spullers plea is that the Eng
lish pledge to evacuate Egypt has not been
kept. and that so long as the country is gar
rsoned by foreigners France will not cooperate
in any scheme for improving the Khedive's
financial standing and tightening the burdens
ot his subjects.
The Foreign Minister'S conduct is obviously
inspired by political considerations. The cleo
lions are approaching in France. and it is an
inconvenient time for the Ministry to make
concessions to England The refusal Of the
Republican Government to cooperate with
England in the campaign against Arab has
generally been regarded by Frenchmen, and
with good reason, as blunder. The Suez
Canal was national enterprise which ought to
have been defended in that crisis, and the
conditions of the Dual Protectorate required
Joint action by the two Powers; but through
NJ. de Freycinets vacilation and NJ. Clemen-
ceau's transcendental philosophy of the ten
denotes of democracy the policy of abstention
was adopted, and England was allowed to enter
Egypt alone. The mistake having been made
successive French Ministries have sought to
repair it by obstinately refusing to sanction the
continuance of occupation. NJ. Spuller, being
convinced that the electors would be pleased
by a show of resistance to the English projects
of economy and financial reform, has renewed
the demand for the withdrawal OF the garrison

coroyy1 rELLOWS At BALLSToM

District Attorney Fellows having arrived at
RaIston with the requisite amount of money
in his pocket to repay Saratoga County for
whatever expense may be involved in the Doodle
trial. the case of the people against McQuade
began Yesterday. We should like to be able to
saw that the people are intensely interested in
this nroscution, but up to the present moment
we have failed to detect the usual symptoms Of
popular uprising. The proceedings opened
with a somewhat wearisome attempt to sec ure
a Jury. the farmers of BallSton not appearing
particularly anxious to be immortalized after
that fashion. However, twelve good men and
A. will doubtless be collected and sworn in
duo time. and then Colonel Fellows will have
the opportunity to redeem his reputation. for
which he has, Of course, been longing. Ii his
experience with the Doodle cases hitherto has
been such as to induce a state OF tOrpor in the
public mind, so much the greater would be his
triumph if he should succeed in restoring the
interest which they once evoked; and if he
should actually get a verdict, his redemption
would be very sweet and precious to the COM
munity.
We congratulate the Colonel upon this rare
chance. The surroundings are in his favor.
Ballston is a quiet and salubnOuS spot, in which
It ought to be particularly easy to lead simple,
Christian life; and certainly that is the sort of
life which man who is determined to send a
felIow-being to States Prison would wish to
lead while engaged in the solemnities Of prose-
cution. We take it for granted that he will
sleep and eat in BallstOn, as regular thing ;
but it. in the course of the trial, he should sud
denly realize that his system was imperiously

off with an equivocal answer, Saratoga is only
eight miles away, and the Colonel could take
the waters cautiously one day in the week with
