new YORK LETTER.
DOOM OF THE BoBTAIL CARS
The Young Napoleon of Wall Street
Drug stores for Post Offices.

In accurlanc- with the city ordinance
which took flee the first OF the present
month, all of lie one horse cars, or
"jisgers," ms they are famIliarly called,
how eo%n nhnliebed The days sfStbe
bob-tail juggeTnaut have been fulfilled
and the thousands of passengers aud
pedestrians Of this city can draw along
breath and take rev lease OF life.
The existapce of these vshicies was an
unmitigated nuisance. No one ever
liked them; no one rode in them utless
compelled to; and no one ever paid his
far If he could help it. Their only
friends were the companies who raked
10 tue nickels while they were saved the
expense of paving for conductor. OF
course, the law always required that
every street csr should have nductor,
but the conductors had d cute little
way Of getting over that by calling the
driver a ''cond uctor" and putting n
badge on his hat to that effect. As the
drivers OF oue-horse cars are physioiogi-
cally constructed the same as other peo-
pie with only two eyes In front and
none behind, the patural result was that
accidents were occurring all the time.
Besides this there were other annoyauces
connected with the running of these
cars which made them exceedingly dis
agreeable and an outrage on the public.
Time and time again ten cent
piece oa q quarter, instead OF the five
cent fare, has been dropped iuto the
slot, a. d once in, like the souls in Hades
thore was no redemption. Your only
salvation was TO take a day off and 60
to the compauy's office l have often
wondered why an enlightened people
will patiently endure such outrages as
bob-tsil cars, but when l reflect that
these are but small part of the out
RACES which the same people endure. my
faith in their enlightenment is greatly
shaken. l congratulate my feliow-citi'
zens on their enlightenment. and tEeir
success in getting rid of the beb-tail
car.

SKETCH OF HIS LIFE.

Samuel Sullivan Cox was born ut
Zauesville, Ohio, September 80, 1924,
and therefore lacked but few days OF
being 65 years of age. His father was a
member of the Ohio legislature, and his
grandfather a revolutionary soldier and
member of the tenth congress from New
Jersey. His school day were spent at
Athens, Ohio, and Brown University,
where he graduated in 1916, after which
he travelled in Europe for several years.
In 1858 he edited the Ohio Statesman,
and was nicknamed "Sunset by Reed,
OF the Commercial, 4 brother of Alex.
Reed, of Tacoma. lie represented the
United States ut Lima, Peru, in 1856,
and on his return i'll that year was elect
ed to congress, and served until '65. He
then removed to New York City, from
whence he was elected to congress in
1868, which district he has since then
represented. In 1869 he took a trip
through North Africa, and in 1882 Wis
tied Sweden, Norway, Russia, Greece
appointed United States minister in 1885.
In congress he has always been a tireless
and effective worker, and has secured
the passage of many measures for which
he has received the thanks, not only OF
his immediate constituency, but of the
whole country. lie had recently return
ed home from visit to the four new
states and Alaska, stopping, with his
wife, for some time in Tacoma.

THE YOUNG NAPOLEON.

The trial OF Henry s. Ives. nickRhmed
the "Young Napoleon Of fiuauce." who
bad nothing but cheek for capital, and
managed to fail for $4,000, 200, begins
today before Recorder Smyth The story
as told in the confession ut Woodruff,
his associate, OF how this young rascal
rose from six dollar-a week clerk TO
railroad president, and swindled every
one he m It until he failed for millions,
reads like romance. Perhaps after
all. the gamblers of Wall street are not
as smart as they are supposed to he and
perhaps they have generally been able
to cover up their tracks better than Ives
did. The off.nss for which Ives il to be
tried is overissue of stock in connection
with the rich Chicago, Hamilton = nd

MORE CITY POST OFFICES.
A plan is now under cn nsid eIatioD
which il carried ont will result la the
establishment in this city OF sixty or
seventy new post offices. 1t is proposed
to rent space in corner drug stores. The
proposition is that the proprietor OF the
store shall provide clerk who shall be
at all times ready to sell money orders,
register letters, and receive letters and
parcels for mailing. The pr ,ject is part
OF plan which looks to doing away
with large number OF Letter carriers.
Special wagons will go from store to
store collecting mails and delivering
them at the general post office.

Attempts are made from time to time to

persons who have fallen victims to the curse
uttered by Guiteau, after his sentence to death,
upon all those who were instrumental in bring
ing him to the scafold. Nobody, however,

befallen Mr.. Scoville and his wife, and Mr..

make an interesting addition to the full SEQUEL.

The last stage but one in the process Of turn
ing territories into states will be reached to-
morrow in the cases of North and South Da-
kota, Montana and Washington, when there
viii be popular expression Of assent to the
constitutions framed in the late conventions,
and state officers and Representatives in Con-
gress will be elected All that remains after
that is for the President to issue proclamation
formally declaring the new states members of the
Union. As a matter Of political geography the
impending change is of interest, as it reduces
the northern border of our republic to a chain
Of full-fedged states, with the exception of the
Idaho panhandle, perhaps q hundred miles
wide at the extreme. 1t also adds TO the popu-
lation of the United States proper some 1, no.
coo souls, entitled to full representation in
Congress and in the electoral college. The
area, in square miles, brought into
the charmed circle by the four newcomers is
nearly equal to the total embraced in all New
England, New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware,
Maryland, Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois.
But neither their population nor their area their
agricultural resources nor their mineral wealth,
will begin to measure the real value of the new
members of the sisterhood, with the splendid
record of their people for physical courage, in
dustry, and enterprise, and the promise for the
future which is held out by the conscious pos
session of such traits.
The elections tomorrow will have bearing
upon the relative strength of parties as veil as
upon the greatness of the union. The rspubli-
cans claim all four of the states and gain Of
eight Senators and five Representatives. The
democrats claim Montana and have hopes in
respect to Washington. Last year the republi-
cans carried North Dakota by nearly IL, 900,
South Dakota by $4,000, Montana by 5000 and
Washington by 1000. In this years election of
delegates to the constitutional convention in
Montana the democrats came out triAe ahead
in a neck-and-neck race, and previous to 1888
the territory had been democratic. Washing
ton gave democratic plurality in 1886; at other
times it has gone republican. North and South
Dakota are reliably republican.
