BiSMARCES FOREIGN ORGANS.

Prince Bismarck has his official organs In
the testimony of Mr. Greenwood. in his suit
against the former proprietor Of "The St.
James's Gazette" it appears that the Chancellor
has sought to have an English newspaper con-
Quoted in the interests Of Germany. The
suit was brought by the former editor Of that
journal, who had been dismissed, as was al
legged, in'violation Of contract. Mr.. Greenwood
has not gained his point, owing TO disagree
ment Of the jury; but he has succeeded in dis
creditng the journal under its present manage
ment. lie has proved that tho owner, MIR.
Steinkopf, had a confidential understanding
with Prince Bismarck, by which both informa-
ton and cues for influencing English opinion
was too loyal and consistent an Englishman 10
edit newspaper in the interest Of a foreign
Government He had advocated for years the
policy Of cultivating the most cordial relations
with Germany and Austria, but this he had
done from disiDtereSted motives, and, az he
thought, for the welfare of England. When he
discovered that he was expected TO discuss for
eign relations Boulangism and other public
questions in the interest Of foreign Govern
ment---in q word, TO be German rather than
an English Journalist-he broke of his connec-
ton with HIS employers. Mr.. GreenwoodS
example Is TO be commended to all sef-respeot-
ing and patriotic journalists.

A DRAMATIC GRNIUS

The profession OF holding the mirror up 70
nature with success, both artistcally and finan-
chilly. has long been known 70 be one requiring
hard work, great perseverance and much expert
rncc combined with genius OF Il high order.
Especially is this true OF little struggling band
Of Thcspnns when presenting the legitimate Ia
those parts OF the provinces which do not want
the legitimate. II Ind been thought that when
the heavy tragcdlan by the pale light OF tho
inconstant moon cautiously lowered his warl-
robe with long whiplAsh from the second story
window OF the rural hotel and made his escape
in time TO walk along The cold, prosaic, uuap-
precintive railroad track 90 the next stand, tho
very height Of devotion 20 the profession had
been reached but 10 seems that II was not so
IL has been left for the humble and comparatively
unknown advance agent 20 display dramatic
genius and mana gerial enterprise surprising this.
A few days ago the man in advance OF DR..
Jckyll and Mr.. Hyde company found hius'lf
in a small Maine village. Business had been
poor and he realized that unless something was
done they would never get through the town;
therefore he proceeded 70 do something Drop
ping into the pOstoiloc when there were a num-
Der OF natives present he casually inquired which
was the best hardware store in the village,
he would probably have to get new chain
for their Mr.. Hyde when the company reached
lHcIc Luc utAb uh1, MI ilJut having got INC
old one about gnawed in two. The villagers
pricked up their ears at this, and inquired what
manner of man this Mr.. Hyde was anyhow The
agent somewhat reluctantly admitted that he was
an exceedingly dangerous individual indeed
They were obliged to transport him about the
country, he said, in "A special car, formerly used
by Barnum for Jumbo and keep him constantly
chained. He often became SO savage that his
keeper dared not approach him, but passed him
his food-raw meat--on a long pole. lie was
the fercest man in the profession. Booth and
Barrett had vainly tried TO get him TO take the
part OF Othello, but could not afford to pay him
enough When Mr.. Hyde roared, the bland and
'guileless advance agent said the windows ratified
and sometimes the lights went out
This startling news was of course spread rapidly
Before noon the next day the streets were filed
with anxious people The unsophisticated advance
man in the meantime Rad gone 70 meet the show

PsTTS AND IPDN.

Since 40 much depends upon the iron industry
and it's state from time to time depends so large
" upon the consumption of steel rails, it ~
profitable to remark that the great decrease in
railroad building, which is forcsbadOwed by the
returns for the first quarter Of this year, VIII
not measure by any means the demand for rails
During the last four years, though 1,Olo,6oO
net tons Of steel rails have been made IN THIS
country and imported, the miles Of new railroad
,yould not require more than 3,7687OO net
tons m the rate of about 80 pounds 10 the yard.
But Of late some roads have begun laying much
heavier rails, ono using as much as 30 pounds
TO the yard, which would require little over
100 tons 70 the mile. The Dew roads, not
having yet attained to the very heavy traffic
which Is supposed to render steel rails profit
able, may be reckoned at about l 90 tons to the
mile, but of the 3.25O,O00 tons remaining for
other use, large part was probably iaId down
in place Of wOrn-out steel rails, and tho rest
In Mace Of iron rails. Railroads that have
managed to shift at all with iron thus far are
hardly likely to have begun with steel Of un-
usual weight, so that tho comparatively few
roads that are laying down the heavier rails
are probably almost exclusively those which
have had steel in use a long time, and are now
making requirements.
It seems probable that, More Than 100000
miles Of railroad having now been laid with
steel for some years, though not all long
time. the wear, breakago and replacement on
such roads must now average not far from
$50 900 tons yearly, and the new rails, II
averaging only 6j pounds TO tho yard, or
ll0l.2 tons to the mile, would still amount
TO about 900 900 tons yearly leaving 81 200
tons yearly for the exchange from iron 10 steel.
The latter demand is at least as iiuctuating aS
the demand for new roads. But the demand
for replaComonts il more steady, and can DO
counted upon as measuraby constant. New
building Of railroads has not gone below about
5000 miles in any year for long time and
the reports for the first quarter Of this year.
though but 474 miles, are thought 10 insure
a construction Of as much as 5000 miles for
the year. With but moderate addition for
transfer from iron to steel on old roads, this
would make o demand for 10000 tons 0t
steel rails, and the actual deliveries for the first
quarter, 2i4,765 tons, were nearly at that rate
With more encouraging financial prospects
ii mi ght, Of course, be reckoned that the demand
for rails would materially exceed the probable
minimum estimated. But the actual consump-
ton Of iron for all other purposes has increased
rapidly until last year, and In spite Of the de-
preston In some branches Of the trade, appears
TO be at least fairly maintained. For a weekly
output almost the largest ever known has con-
tnued for some months, without great change
in prices or appearance Of large accumulation
Ia stocks.

Not only is Oklahoma without laws and with
