Capt. Lusks report, of which an abstract was
printed IN TaE STAR Yesterday, makes an in
teresting showing. especially in regard to the
Important matters OF water supply, street light
ing and sewerage. The electric arc lamps in the
sirees have been maintained since September
~, 1889, wholly by means of underground
wires. and Capt. Lnsk derives from their salts
factory service the hope that all aerial electric
lighting wires may speedily disappear from the
streets and avenues Of Washington, to which
the public oil say amen. The report Of the
commission appointed to devise the best method
OF burying the wires is awaited with great
interest.

The Atkinson railroad bill is in a situation
and shape to be acted upon by the House de-
cizively on the first District day. With the
notifications in respect to the space which
can be condemned by the road and with the
compromise amendment providing a commits
sion to consider relocation of the tracks 1t
viii probably pass. But the friends Of the Dis
trict should at least see TO it that the I'M
amended bill in the shape in which it was jug
gled through the Senate is not substituted for
the measure as it stands in the House, thus
breaking all compromises and restoring to the
bill all its original ugliness. The measure Is
bad enough IN its amended shape. Congress
having yielded to the railroad the substance of
its demand ought to search diligently for some
compromising advantage which the railroad
win permit it to give to the people. There
ought to be . warming to both par
ties in the results Of the recent
election against going too far in
this kind Of corporation-favoring legislation.
When the railroad last winter in its newspaper
Observation-Disclosures that those legislators who
opposed its extreme demands were pumpkins
THESrAR gave warming that the public sentiment
against legislation sacrificing the peoples in
terests to corporations was growing and that

done lie comes TO the front after the cleo
ton with perhaps unreasonable and imprac-
tcable ideas concerning the legislative remedies
for the evils against which he protests and both
parties are puzzled to know what to do with
him. They may hesitate to adopt some of his
affirmative suggestions. but they will be wise
to go slowly and cautiously in legislating upon
the class of measures against which his appear
ance is a protest The people Of Washington
have condemned the Atkinson bib in every
manner open to them. through the board of
trade, through citizens associations In the
various sections, and through . petit
ton and protest signed by thirteen
thousand persons. including the represen-
tatives Of every business. trade and profession.
and every part of the city. The local Fedora
ton of Labor and knights of Labor have
vigorously taken up the city's cause and have
announced the intention Of interesting in the
matter their affiliated organizations all over the
country. Washington not only needs and asks
railroad legislation upon certain general lines.
but il requests that the matter be disposed Of
promptly in order that other local legislation

The Secret of Armour's Success.
Bill Nye.

Mr.. Armour said in our talk, when I
asked him for little recipe for becoming q
millionaire: "Here is the secret of the sue
cess of the Big Four. 1t is our system of
carefully utilizing everything. Here is
glass jar containing hoo-meal. This is
valuable for its ammonia. 1t Is made
from the despisec hoof of the animal after
the neatsfoot oil and other toilet articles
have been removed. Here ia q jar of white
phosphate. made from the pith of the
horn. This industry will decrease if the
dehorning of cattle grows, but prob
ably 1t will not appreciabiy. Here
is sort of glue made from the
tips of the ears and nose of deceased cattle
which die violent death at out house.
Here Is substance used in great quanti-
ties by the brewers. Some time in the old
days before your reformation you have
noticed when you pulled your beer glass
OH the top of the table that it had tend
ency to stick. That is gaiatinous SUBJ
stance which we furnish the brewer IN
great quantities. 1t Is made from the thin
white film which lies between the bone and
skin of the head for instance, and if no.
thing more harmful goes into beer il will
never xiii people off at big rate. Then
there is jar of dried blood. Some is used
tor purifying sugar, and considerable
is sent To New Orleans. but more is used
for making buttons. So you see we make
our money by saving it Not long ago
Frenchman came to me and told me that
l was losing q million or so unnecessarily.
l froze to him till he told me how. We
found that our big reservoirs containing
water. and in which We give the beef
bath TO sort of cool it and close up the
pores, had been empiied into the Chicago
river for years, carr ying with it the bouquet
OF the beef. We now condense and COM
press this nutritious. juice till We get the
most slim ulating and detachable extract OF

Desolation In Panama.
Washington City Post

Victor Vifquain. late United States con-
sui at Panama, was at the Riggs house last
night He was appointed under the Cleve-
land regime. and was only latsly super
seeded by Republican. having his Office
life prolonged about two years. Mr.. Vif-
quain's home is in Nebraska, near Lincoln
He is Belbian by birth and man OF fine
intelligence. He said: 1.-THE Isthmus
could net well be in a more sfagnant
condition. Ever since the abandonment
of the Lesseps canal population and trade
have both declined. Colon, which little
more than year ago had 1900 people,
has now scarcely 5000. The recent fire
pretty neary destroyed all that was left.
Will it be rebuilt? That depends
on whether Mr.. Napoleon Wyse
will be able TO get the Bogota
government to renew the concessions
Ii give Count de L-sseps. The grant ex-
pires January l, 1892. and if not extended
the canal will be abandoned Tor all time.
There Is achance yet that operations may be
resumed. if not by the French. by others who
see the advantages of the lsthman route.
/ am glad to get home once more. and
benceforth am willing to stay in the United
Etates. Society at Panama is wretchsd.
and there il nothing there 70 alleviate the
monotOny Of existence.
