European Travel.
From the Baltimore Sun

FROM the Baltimore Sun.
WASHINGTON, June 19.-"More Americans are
going to Europe this season than ever before. F"
remarked a state department official as he
handed his assistant large batch of applica
lions for passports He said during the month
of May 2,269 passports were issued to travellers
by the department of state, and during the
present month the number of applications have
averaged about 125 per day. Every person who
goes abr DAD does not make application for
passport, as there are a large number of mer-
chants and other business men who run over to
the other side two or three times each year.
and they are so well known in the
localities they visit that they do not feel the
necessity for passport. There is one class of
American citizens who seldom cross the water
without paSsport-the Germans More than
three-tifths of the applications for passports
come from German.American citizens They
are afraid the German military law will be in
voked against them; so they not only carry
with them a passport, but they also carry their
naturalization papers, to assure them of the
protection OF the American authorities The
records OF the American steamship companies
show that a greater number of people are going
TO Europe this year than during the Paris ex-
position last year Many delays in issuing
passports are due to the carelessness of an, Ii
cants. They in majority of cases forget or
neglect to state whether they are native born
or naturalized citizens, which requires two or
three communications between the applicant
and the department to ascertain that fact.

The Cession of Helieoland.

The determined opposition of Englishmen
to the proposed settlement OF the dispute
between England and Germany relative to
the ownership of certain tracts of country
in East Africa is rather curious, the opposi-
ton being mainly to the ceding by the
British government to Germany, besides
the protectorate of African territory, the
island of Heligoland. The REIMBURSEMENT
of any land over which John Bull has
man as surrender of an inherent right to
possession. Rights of natives may be
ignored. but. in his opinion, whatever has
fallen into the power of the English should
remain there forever.
The concessions to Germany in Africa are
far more important and valuable than the
cession of Heligoland, which is practically
German settlement, having been formerly
a dependency of the Dukes of Schleswig
and Holstein. England secures from Ger.
many stretch of coast line, so that it will
have no competitor in the country lying
south and west of the Italian protectorate,
except the Congo Free State. England also
secures the protectorate of the Sultanate of
Zanzibar. including the islands of Zanzibar
and Pembo.
Heligoland has population of about 8 500.
1t is Of no benefit to England, and would
probably have never been heard of, except
in the schoolroom, if Germany had not de-
manded as distinct con cession its sur

Denmark. Germany wants it and the small
adjacent island simply because they are in
the North sea. near the mouth of the Elbe. Il

The President q Candidate.

The President, it seems, has some friends
nding Senator Wolcott's sheer
ing allusion to the contrary. and they want
it understood that he has not made up his
mind to retire to his law office in Indianap.
oils at the end of his term. They insist
that he did not say, as reported, that be
would not be candidate for
denomination. According to their story,
what he did say was that be
intended to do what he believed to be right
with respect to any silver bill that might
reach him from congress, and that if his ac-
ton did not meet with the approval of the
people he would gladly return to the prac-
tice of his profession.
This denial by his friends that he has de-
termined to retire from politics may be
assumed to have been made with his knowl-
edge and consent.
That being the case he may be re-
garded, very properly, as being a
candidate for denomination. Doubt
less the other aspirants for the republican
presidential nomination are not at all
pleased with this condition of affairs, be-
cause. whether he is popular with his party
or not at the time the campaign for the
nomination begins, he is certain to have a
great many supporters in the nominating
convention who, if they find that he cannot
be nominated. will support the man of his
choice. These delegates will be either federal
office-holders or under the control of
office holders
The President can reasonably depend upon
the support of the offlce-holders, and their
support is worth great deal There are
tens of thousands of them, and they make
their influence felt in the local conventions
of their party. In the south especially they
run tie conventions of their party, and
they have it in their power to name the
delegates to the national convention. In
order to hold their Offices the most of them
will be very active in having Harrison del
egates chosen.
With solid delegations from the south and
other delegates from the north the President
would have q very considerable following.
1t may be stated with very considerable
degree of certainty that he expects the
office-holders to work for him He does not
seem to object to their taking part in poll
clcS. he has not announced that he does.
If he remains silent on that subject his
silence will be interpreted by the Office
holders to mean that he expects that they
will do what they can to have him rsnomi
mated.
Notwithstanding, however, that he has
the office-holders on his side, it is far from
certain that he could get denomination.
His party leaders are not pleased with him.
and they will exert themselves to defeat
him. However, it is too soon to make any
prediction as to who will be the next Presi-
dental nominee of the Republican party.
Many things may occur before the meeting
Of the nominating convention that would
change the whole situation. In the mean
time, however, it may be considered as GER
tain that the President means to have a
second term if he can get it.

Early in July the publication of a
new serial will be begun in the MORNING
NEWS and the WEEKLY NEWS. The title
of it is "a Hidden Foe' and the author of
it is the celebrated English writer of fiction,
g. A. Henty. The narration of the story is
brisk and lively, the plot strong, the situa-
tions powerful, the characters interesting
and the effects dramatic. ga Hidden Foe'

which will excite the liveliest feelings of
curiosity. The opening scenes are in Eng
land, the family introduced having strongly
marked characteristics A sudden tragedy
causes considerable change in the prospects
of certain individuals. Mysterious circum-
stances are discovered in connection with
the family history, and an eager search is
instituted to trace these matters to their
source. Unknown to each other several OF
the characters embark for Australia in the
same ship. Perils and adventures abound,
the author displaying intimate knowledge
of the sea- The vessel founders in the
Pacific, small party of survivors being
cast away on a lonely island. Every
chapter contains its quota of incident, every
installment an effective scene. Throughout
the story the element of love and romance
receives prominence. and "a happy ending
brings clever work to a conclusion.

DR.. Talnage.

heard good story about Dr. Talmage the
other day, writes New York Star reporter.
1t was at a base ball game at Washington park,
Brooklyn, and it was my lot to be seated near q
loquacious individual who was very critical of
the good and bad points of the game and of the
people he saw around him. After he had ex-
hausted about every possible subject of CONVEX.
sation he said:
"Ah, there is DR.. Talmage over there | see
him here quite often. He is a mighty good
man, but it's too bad he swears So"
'Swearsr' exclaimed. do you mean to
say that Mr. Talmage is profane?"
"Oh, yes, he swears like pirate It was like
this: He was sitting next to me at game here
last week, when O'Brien stopped a redhot
liner which ought to have been good for two
bases. Forgetting that was SO near the doc
tor, said: BY Jove. that was id clever

At this time last year there were 2,SS5
miles of railroad under construction in the
foregoing states. This year, at present,
there are 2,S02 miles. This year, however,
there are more miles under survey than
last, 1884 being the number on June 10,
1889. and 5, 14711 on June IA, 1890 Geor-
gia, where the larger railroad corporations
are continually strengthening and en-
larging their systems, leads all other
southern states. 1t is not only gratifying
to note the bright prospects for the future.
but also that in the construction of the
roads the projectors have studied the best
railroad systems Of the country. At the
rate railroad building is progressing the
southern states will in a few years be as
thickly gridironed with railroad tracks as
the states of Illinois and Ohio.
The MORNING NEWS has recently noted
the growth of industries, the settlement of
hitherto wild and barren regions in the
south, and the constantly increasing flow
of capital and immigration into the southern
states. Railroads are continually seeking
new traffic, and it will not be long before
these new regions will be invaded by
them. Railroads are great civilizers. They
build up the country and stimulate trade
through competition among themselves.
The outlook for railroads in the south err
states is certainly very hopeful, and pros
poets for the material growth of the south
are very promising.

The political outlook in Brazil is GER
tainly not reassuring and encouraging.
The men at the head of the government
have encountered many difficulties in
changing it from a monarchy to a republic
But this is neither surprising nor unex-
pected. Still, the revolutionary leaders
have not been very successful in establish
ing their authority, and, therefore, it is not
to be wondered at that the British consul at
Sac Paulo should warn foreigners that
1t would be wise for those engaged
in commerce and seeking investments

in their undertakings. To harmonize the

1t has been a matter of wonder to the
public since the Sixth avenue bank crash in
New York brought to light the fact that
outside institutions were given the advan-
tages of the clearing house in
that city, as well as elsewhere,
through individual q members. Many
bankers wanted the practice abolished, and
the matter was referred to a committee of
the New York Clearing House Association,
which presented majority and minority
report. the former in favor of disseminating,
and the latter in favor of continuing the
custom. No action was taken on the re-
ports. The majority report sums up the
proper view of the case in one sentence,
that 'such liberality toward rivals is with
out parallel in the history of finance"

The question whether or not DR.. Edward
Malone, of New York, who died a few days
ago, was to be buried in consecrated ground,
he having belonged TO DR.. McGlynn's Anti
Poverty Society, caused great deal of dis
cussion in Catholic circles, two other fol-
lowers of the ex-priest having been refused
burial in Catholic cemetery. The bishop
decided that DR.. Malone should
be accorded christian burial, and in expla-
nation why it was denied to others who
were also connected with the Anti Poverty
Society he said that they died suddenly
after attendance at the McGlynn meetings
without receiving the last rites of the
church, a stipulation expressed in the rules
governing the cemetery. DIR. Malone re-
ceived all the sacraments on his ldeath- bed,
and was. therefore, in full compliance with
this rule, no matter what his previous
actions may have been in regard to the New
York ecclesiastical controversy"

The republican editors are going into hys-
terics over the discussion whether Chairman
Brice is competent to remain at the head
of the national democratic committee
or not. These gentlemen seem to be
greatly concerned about it; in fact,
they are the only ones who are paying any
attention to the matter. The Democratic
party is not worried about Mr. Brice, and
just now it is not of the slightest moment
whether he holds on to the craftsmanship or
resigns. There is no political work for the
committee or for him to do. When
the next national convention meets new
committee will be chosen, and Mr.. Brice's
term of service, like that of the rest of its
forty odd members, will be at an end. II

whether he ought to be entrusted with the
