BARLEY CampbeIps Career Recalled.
pooR Bartley Campbellt How the memory OF
his genius comes up to US with the an
nouncement in the daily papers few days ago!
1t is only six line notice to the effect that
letters of administration are granted to his
wife, Emily, and that his personal. estate IL
valued at 500. All his kIth and kin are his
widow, and two sons, Robert and John, the
latter 20 and 10 respectively. What story Of
genius there is in this simple announcement
One Of the most brilliant and successful play
writers of his time, a splendid fellow per-
sonally, who went about the world of good
fellows with his heart on his sleeve, SO to
speak, beloved by everybody who knew him,
and leaving his impression upon the dramatic
profession such as no playwriter Of his day and
generation. Yet to-day, scarcely three years
since mis- melancholy death, he is almost for
gotten in his personality. While managers
and actors are struggling with each other in
brain,y and theaters season after season are
crowded with lovers of his lurid dramas, p rob-
ably but one out of thousands ever give him
passing thought.
To us who knew him WELL with all bis virtues
and faults, this little notice strikes a responsive
cord OF human sympathy. Campbell in his
brief and erratic career made a fortune in
money All he leaves of that now is the pitia-
pie sum of s20O. In the hey-day of his popular
ICY poor Bartley would have scarcely counted
such sum As anything worth mentioning. In
his grand scheme Of the management Oh
formidable circuit of theaters, and the man
agement of theatrical companies handling
thousands of dollars a night. the insignificant
sum left to his widow and family would NOT
have been considered pocket money Tor Week-
Well, it Is the way Of the world, especially tne
way Of the dramatic profession. Notwitnstand-
ing this, Bartley Campoelps name Will De re-
membered by his thousands OF dear lrienos

Ifetra yed lIla Trust.

highly respected Philadel phian, Mr.
John &. File, late treasurer of the Lutheran
Orphans home, at Germantown, confessed
to the board of finance of the institution, at
its meeting in the early part of the week,
that he had made away with
nearly all the endowment fund, $4,000.
Mr. File, made statement, showing securi-
ties representing about s., 600, and promised
to hand over besides a reputed cash bal
ance of 5000.
Sometime ago the firm of File, Derr,
Hanley Il Co., of which the defaulter is
senior member, became embarrassed, and
Henry Lehman, the president of the homo,
asked Mr.. File to submit complete report
showing how the endowment funds were
invested. IL was with great difficulty that
managers could get Mr.. File before them,
and when he did come his statement was
not so complete rs was desired.
When he was asked to produce the Sc
curitics no said they were in his brother
in-law's safe and that he could not get nj
them. The managers insisted on seeing
the securities, and then Mr.. File broke
down completely and with tears in his eyes
admitted that he had nothing, to show fol
most of the money. He made statement
showing that the only securities he pos
sessed were worth about 5000, and that
he had casn balance of over 5000. This
he promised to hand over to President
Lehman, who has been temporarily ap.
pointed treasurer; but the money has moi
vet been received. a report was submitted
t, the Lutheran synod, in session at Bethle-
hem, and the matter will DO taken up aud
considered on Monday.
Pharon B. Derr, of Flo Derr, Haney a
Co., stated that Mr.. File was no longer q
member of the firm. Mr.. File had charge
of tho counting room, and his books are
charities and loaned money TO friends
without security.

q q West Wssut railway. Although IL may
!. wihdsnger life by an electric shock, il is
l. lockingly improper. 1t is against all fit

ceed without horse; an iron horse is bad
enough, but no horse is dreadful, for i'm
agine, if you can, how shocked you men

equally scandalous innovation of vehicles

vigorously, as described in your enterpris-
ing paper, and | am gratified to find
that my kicking was considered some
thing extraordinary. | Intended to argue
that II cars are to be allowed to travel with
out horses, we horses should be allowed to
travel without carriages. Ofcourse, ! sup
pose we will have TO get used to it, Just as
we have 10 bad roads and tollgates and
street car tracks. My self-respect demanded
that / should not submit without protest,
and can only hope that as every journey
has stable at the other end of it, so the
end of all these strange proceedings may
be that we horses will bye-and-by o, have
nothing at all to do, for carriages, carts and
ploughs will proceed about their business
without us, and gentlemen and ladies will
go horseback riding without any horses
under them. With horse laugh.

The Sparrow Point Sign.

There was gathering on Friday at
Sparrow Point Of the friends Of the
ARennsylvania Steel company, whose
pfseident, Mr.. Bent, Is well known for
his advocacy Of free raw materials.
This is the plain interest of his industry,
and In q speech which he made to his
guests he declared that it was bound to
come. 1t was In confident anticipation
Of 1t that the works at Sparrow Point
had been erected. The parent plant
was put up on the Susquehanna, not
many years ago, and 1t grew TO great
proportions through the immense pro-
dts obtained from Its protected indus
try. But their profits were so great that
Bessemer steel plants Of great size
were erected in different parts of the
country, notwithstanding their number
was checked by the monopoly se-
cured by their patent. The profits
Of each of the original plants was
% great that they expanded their
4 productive capacity TO a !dAsree that
made them fierce competito2han,
full demand came, for the bus.. M,
the country. Before many years passed
the price of steel rails was put down here
to figures as low as ruled In Europe and
our factories were driven into other lines

Major Bent says that he and his asso-
siates recognized the new conditions
and went to the seaboard to meet them.
BY going there they get nearer to the
ore which they purchased in Cuba and
they stand ready to ship at the least
cost their products by water to home
aud foreign ports. They found them
selves at Steelton too far away from the
Bessemer ores of the Northwest TO
compete with the Western plants
that were nearer both to this ore
TO their market. Chicago threat
ened even Pittsburg as n point of manu-
facture, despite Pennsylvania fuel.
pennsylvania factories fail to receive the
henefit Of their natural advantage be-
cause the policy of the railroad direction
fayors the far of plants. The Pennsyl-
vanis Steel company, in going t. II lie

secured the free highway of the sea for
it, income and outgo, saving only the
carriage of her fuel and there she Sc
cured the competition Of several lines of

one of the most horrible railway ac-
cident ever known In California occurred at
lao o'clock Friday afternoon when tho
local train connecting az Oakland with the
ferry-boats from San Francisco ran through
an open drawbridge over the San Antonio
creek at Webster street, Oakland.
The yacht Juanita had Just passed
going in the direction of Alameda. The
drawbridge keeper endeavored at once TO
close the bridge, but it was too late, and
the engine with its tender and first car,
which was iilled with passengers plunged
into the river, which was here quite deep
The engineer, Sam Dunn, and Firemen
VBrien went down with the engine; the
former, when he saw that the bridge did
not close reversed the lever, but the mo-
mentum of the engine was too great to be
stopped in time. The weight of the engine
ana the first car broke the couplings and
left the other two cars of the train standing
on the track. The second car ran out a
third of the way across the bridge and
stopped, but the weight was sufficient to
break open the front, and many passengers
were thrown into the water. The first car
which followed the engine to the bottom
of the muddy estuary soon rose and such
of ithe passengers AS had escaped were
picked up by the yachts and other boats
which gathered at the scene.

Tariff Mancuverins.

" The maneuvring in the Senate COM
'mittee upon the tariff bill Is said to
show . disposition upon the part OF
certain old Republican foxes to get
away from the passage of tariff bill at
4 this session, and determination upon
the side of the Democratic members to
s1prce q bill to enactment. When the COM
4 -naittes took hold of the House bill.
senator Sherman proposed that 1t should
be considered by the full committee, and,
with the votes Of the Democratic MEM
beu and Senator Morrell, his motion
was adopted.
Scarcely had the committee got to
work, however, when Mr.. Carlisle
moved the Democratic vote over to the
other side, and the bill has been sent TO
sub Of each party to facili-
late it preparation for the consideration
q the Senate. Mr.. Carlisle declared
sthat the people wanted the tariff 10 be
amsnded, and he proposed that there
should be no needless delay In bringing
bill to passage.
The trouble ahead on this question Is
all for the Republican side. Having the
majority Of both houses. and the presi-
dent, the tariff bill must be Of their en-
actment. But they find their position
to be counter to the run Of public senti-
ment. Their wisest leaders see very
clearly that tariff reduction Is the pop
ular demand. 1t is so, because the busi-
sl,ess interest of the country clearly lies
In this direction. The days when all our
Industries needed protection from foreign
production have passed away for many
Of them, and for nearly all the measure
OF protection needed has been reduced.
The Republican party Is founded upon
the high protective tariff idea,
and is supported by the old
time demand Of the infant industries
of the nation but It will be left high aud
(. dry by the new conditions, If 1t cannot
. change Its course to meet them. To do
this 1t will have to turn towards the
position that has been preoccupied by
Its political opponents, In favor of a
modified tariff that will enable our
factories to cheaper their raw materials
and lessen the cost Of their product No
disposition or ability to turn in this di-
rection has been shown In the bill that
has been sent to the Senate by the Re
+. publican House but there are Repub-
llcan senators who want to make the
/. essay. There is struggle impending
between their inclinations and the force
Of the party momentum the other way.

out that the act ordering the eleventh

said secretary full discretion over the
