OHIO IO.iPPORTION4NEET

The fact that the people Of the
great state Of Ohio has seen tit
and proper to give the Democrats
o majority in the Legislature, has
had The effect Of y bomb she'll
thrown IN the camps Of the Re-
ppbIirsps. The Republicans have
SO gerrymandered the state in the
manner Of apportioning the con,
gress,onal districts, that although
they poIled less than half the vote
in 1889. still they bave Is out Of
the II congressman. Hoar,
Wickam and other leading Re-
publicans have been exerting their
energies Of late to the end Of pass .
ing an act in Congress 10 prevent
the states from interfering any
more with the manner in which
they are now distracted. In other
words the Republicans would per-
pctuate the rule which now gives
them about three fourths Of tho
congressman from Ohio, when
they have less than half the votes.
This uneasiness is brought
about by the fact that the demo
Gratis now propose TO redlstrict the
state by an act of the Legislature,
in such a manner as to give the
greatest possible effect to every
vote they may have. If this bill
passes and the state is retiistrsted
then the Democrats will have Is
members IN Congress against 6
for the Republicans. This will
give the Democrats a clear major
ity in the next Congress.
The bill now pending in Con.
gress to prevent this gerrymander
of the Democrats, will not become
a law, as some of the leading Re.
rublicans among whom is Butter

AN OCEAN PROBLEM SOLVED.
The "City of Paris" as Near an Abso-
lutely Safe Boat as Floats.
From the PHILADELPHIA Press

From the Philadelphia Press
New YORK, March 3l.-Now that the
City of Paris is in port and her passengers
landed safely, we hear all sorts of surmises
and theories respecting the nature of the
accident which she suffered. / called at q
number of the steamship offices this after
nool that l might see whether any sugges-
ton that was reasonable in regard TO the
accident could be obtained from those
familiar with ocean steamships. 1t
was the one topic in all of
the offices, but its cause Is something that
no one cared to speak about. There seems,
however, to be vague impression among
steamship men that the engine broke down
on account of the tremendous strain to
which it was put to drive the ship to a
record-making trip. At one of the Office; it
was said that the greatest peril now in ocean
steamship travelling lay in the breakage of
machinery, and that was something that the
utmost care and the most thorough Wig =
lance could not wholly guard against. 1t
was supposed, however, that when the du-
plicate system of engines and boilers, shaft
ing, screws aud rudders was adopted that
this danger would be reduced to its mini
num- Yet GA the first occasion in a long
time when steamship engine broke down
less
But the accident has developed one fact
which everybody is talking about, and that
is that the construction Of the City of Paris
both as regards bullxheads and its compart-
ments was such as to solve tn problem o f
resistance to danger of this kind at sea.
Notwithstanding the accident, at all the
offices it was admitted that it had been ds-
monstrated that as near an approach
to absolute safety as could possibly be
secured has been achieved by the
builders of the City of Paris. All
coniectures, however, are not OF much
account until the agents here can receive
satisfactory Information as 10 the cause of
the accident. The agents of the line put out
this afternoon statement in which they
assert that the construction of the City of
Paris with solidly built transverse bulk
heads, rising above the water line by some
eighteen feet were what enabled the vessel
to float, notwithstanding her tremendous
burden of water. The accident has not
made the slightest difference in the pros
poets for ocean travel. No one engage
lnent has been Cancelled, and the season
promises to be the best one steamship COM
panies have ever known.
