CONSOLIDATION AND CONSEQU


Mr.. Depew and Mr.. Huntington represent
great railroad systems, but differ regarding the
proper policy for railroads. Mr.. Huntington
welcomes and regards with hOpefulneSs the ten
dency toward consolidation. MIR Derew urges.
as The TRIBUNE has more than once urged,
that any consolidation Of interests, under what
ever name or form, would be regarded as q
trust, or as a conspiracy against the public to
raise rates, and would stimulate most unfriendy
legislation. The practical experience of Mr.
Depew in Northern States has made him keenly
appreciate the consequences Of arJusinp a hos
| tile public sentiment. Mr. Huntington has
| perhaps been more fortunate in his experience
as to the relations Of railroads with State and
Territorial Governments
| IL is said that one Of the shrewdest railroad
men OF the Northwest has been for some months
| selling stocks, whenever he saw an ornor-
tunity, because he was convinced that the diff
culties or necessities Of the companies would
push them into the policy which Mr. Hunting
ton regards with favor, and that would result
in action by State Governments of most in
furious character. Others of large influence
have openly expressed opinions like those of
Mr.. Depew, who pronounces the scheme i'm
possible as well as injudicious. Notwthsand-
ing these opinions and strong reasons which
support them, there is evident actual progress
in consolidation of interests. First one road
and then another is taken in by some financial

The Baltimore started on her second trial
trip yesterday Everybody hopes, of course,
that she will surpass the contract requirements
as to speed and horsepower but we don't want
any mistakes about the matter this time. The
instruments to be used are believed to have
been thoroughly tested and to be capable Of
making accurate records. Why thorough pre-
cautions on this point were not taken before is
singular, to say the least, for no object worth
gaining was to be accomplished by an errone-
Gus showing. Now let us have the plain facts
mdiluted and unfortiied.

A dispatch from Berlin makes the assertion
that Captain Wissmann has been ordered by
the Emn Relief Committee to send a caravan
to the relief Of Henry NJ Stanley and his party,
which is supposed to include Emin Pacha.
There is good reason for believing that the
public has not been made acquainted with all
the facts that have been received from mid
Africa. Does this dispatch signify that Stan
lev and Emin are in worse situation than
would be inferred from the meagre information
which the press of Europe and America has
been permitted to disseminate?

Steam car-heating having become an accepted
fact on many of the most important railway lines,
it was hoped that this improvement would be fol
lowed by the abolition of lamps and gas, thereby
removing another source of danger, since a train
could be set fire by overturned lamps almoS
as easily by overturned stoves. 1t is dscourag-
ing, therefore, to be informed that one company
which introduced the electric light on two of its
trains recently has abandoned the experiment
owing to the great weight of the apparatus en-
ploycd and the heavy expense incurred in keeping
up the system" Cannot our electricians devise
satisfactory apparatus at a reasonable cost? Or
has the public been rendered unnecessarily timid
by the disastrous effects of currents of high ten

Further light upon the methods OF doing
business in the Dock Department was shed
yesterday. Two of the dOckmasters gave
interesting testimony the bondsmen OF the
lessee of one of the piers swore that they had
no knowledge of the man, and considered the
signing of the bond "only matter OF form" I;
and the secretary of the Dock Board, when con-
fronted with pier-lease which the lesseeS had
never signed, admitted that there were " lew
more, of that kind on file in the Department,
and nonchalantly remarked that the holders OF
such leases were not expected to live up to their
contracts any way. Damaging admissions
were made by both the dockmasters examined
Bogart and Pendergast. Each of these officials
receives 81 800 a year. BogaIt it was shown,
turned over to the city during the last fiscal
wear only S637, and while he admitted having
received alb out $500 from one railroad company
his return showed only 81 3 SO from that source.

Use to be interesting developments. Our dock
masters seem to have gone their own gait thus
far. We do not believe, from the facts already
brought to light, that it will be difficult to prove
the dishonesty of some of them to the salts
faction of Jury.

is not limited to the Roman Catholic body. This
fact was denoted by the presence, in addition
to the impressive array of Catholic dgnitaries,
of the presidents of several nonC Catholic col

members of the Cabinet. At the banquet fol-
lowing the opening exercises both General Har-

A decided impetus to the collection of money
for the Worlds Fair was given by yester-
davis action of the brewers of this city and
vicinity, who added S446,O 900 to the subscrp-
ton list helping materially in increasing. the
total of 1854 ,675. The brewers subscriptions
are based upon the amount OF business done
by them for a year-a fact which may furnish
a valuable hint TO men in other. trades. There
is no longer any reason why the five millions
needed should not be forthcoming at once, so
that the city may be prepared to present its
claim effectively when Congress meets.
