There is some talk of preparing and passing
new bill, but It seems rather late TO undertake
that, especially as the bill in hand is one that
has the approval Of the closest students OF this
problem in practical politics Amendments
may likely be needed after the law is put on
actual trial, but TO sit down idly and wait to see
how the laws passed by other States work wo"id
not be creditable course for Connecticut 70
pursue The present opportunity to enac'
good law ought not to be thrown away

ply has been cut of by doodS In al parts OF tnc
country, except within the immediate influence Oh
recent disasters, the volume OF trade continues
large, and for Eve months the bank clearings OUT
side New.York have been ii per cent greater
than last year. while at NewYork the increase has
been 10 per cent But the gain Is in part due to
ales Of stock exceeding last years in market value
by $500 600 900, and this traffic also Affects clear

In few churches collections for the Cone

Yesterday not only were the collections in many
churches set apart for this purpose but not
few ministers made the catastrophe the theme
OF their sermons and drew some of the lessons
which the sad occurrence suggests. The re-
turns from the church contributions are not all
In yet. but handsome sum will doubtless be
realized. In Johnstown itself the religious
services yesterday were mostly held out OF
doors, as only one church was left standing by

A robust and well-developed sentiment in
layor Of High License is manifesting itself in
Maryland. One Of the gratifying circumstances
Ia connection with it is that citizens of both
parties are actively engaged in the movement
though there are fears that the Democratic ring
which controls Baltimore may secretly work in
behalf OF the saloons Baltimore is afflicted
with not less than 1000 drinking places, and
the feeling Of all the better class Of its people
Is emphaticslly on the side Of restricting the
liquor traffic. There is talk Of license fee OF

strun,ent for curtailing the number and infu-

the sermons delivered yesterday were those Of
