Talk With de Mohrenheim-A Halt in

Talk With de Mohrenheim-A Halt il
Berlin.
rBY CABLE TO THE pIsPArcH.l
LONDON, Nov. 21.-Monsieur de Giers,
the Russian Imperial Chancellor, arrived in
Paris Thursday evening. ''to see his grand.
daughter" BY way Of keeping up fiction
which deceives nobody, the little girl was
waiting at the Russian embassy when the
great man arrived, presented him with a
bouquet, and was kept awake and fed with
bon-bons at an hour when all good little
girls should be tucked up in bed.
1t was annoueced that His E1cellency,
being an invalid and suffering from the
fatigue of a long journey, would retire to
rest, but after everybody else had retired
NJ. de Giers talked with Baron de Mohren-
helm, the Russion Ambassador, for two
hours, which was not a bad performance for
too, he was we'll enough to dine with Mon
sieur Carnot at the Elysee, and his strength
was happily equal to the strain of a long
talk with the President, followed by
another prolonged consultation with the
Ambassador. Again to-day this remarkable
invalid has made calls and has had inter-
views with various great people, and to-
night he has successfully borne the ordeal
of big diplomatic dinner at Monsieur
Ribot's.
The Paris correspondents, understanding
for once in a way what people want to know,
have taken pains to describe NJ. de Giers.
We learn that he is tall, lean, and has the
stoop which much desk work gives to man.
He has the gravish whiskers of the old
fashioned diplomatic cut, and tired looking,
clear, cold, blue eyes, contrasting with
somewhat bilious complexion. For the rest
he is quietly polite, good listener, and is
said to have subtle charm of manner which
grows on those with whom he converses.
NJ. de Giers' visit to his granddaughter
was preceded by a semi-official statement,
carefully communicated to the press in
every European capital, to the effect that
his recent interviews with King Humbert
and the Marquis di Rudini were quite un-
premeditated and as devoid of international
significance as his private trip to Paris
which is doubtless correct, as far as it goes,
but in order to make clear the personal and
pacific objects of his journeys it is now an
that NJ. de Giers will visit Berlin,
where, providentially, his family will be
next week.
To round up things nicely and set every
one at his ease, M. de Giers ought now to
discover that he has niece in London and
a grandson in Vienna anxiously awaiting
his embraces. The punching of the entire
family in Berlin is obviously waste of
good material, and iustifes the suspicion
that M. de Giers and his master are prepar-
ing some movement against the Austrian
interests in the Balkans and British inter-
ssts in Egypt and India which France will
support directly or indirectly, and which
will not furnish a casus belli to the triple
alliance.

NO COLOR LINE IN LAROR.

The effort TO draw the "color line' in Ia
Dor was recently sharply rebuked by Sec
rotary Foster. Two plate printers in the

their refusal to permit a colored girl to
be employed as helper. By right. bv law

discharged printers. backed byvarious labor
organizations, saying that to make any
concession to these men would he to place
himself, his department and the govern
ment in the attitude of sympathy with the
industrial prescription of the colored race.
There was n time on this coast when the
attitude of the Democratic party toward
the colored race was so illiberal as to be
absolutely inhuman. During lS6s-60 Gov
ernor Pennoyer, of Oregon, then editor of
the Portland Herald, was not ashamed TO
lavish vulgar abuse upon race that was
then just beginning to grope their way
up from slavery to the verge of
manhood and free labor. The negro

and while the cry of this is "a white mans
government" is occasionally heard it is but
feeble utterance. There is no influence
behind it, as the recent attempt TO excite
violence and prejudice against colored
labor has shown by its substantial failure.
1t is too late to draw the "color hne" on
labor.

THE INTERSTATE COMMERCR LAW.

Colonel Aldace Walker, an eminent law
yer. formerly a member of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, and now attorney
of the Western Traffic Association, con-
tributes an able and interesting article to
the July Forum concerning the origin,
growth and workings of the Interstate
Commerce Law. Up to 1876 the doctrine
that q charter is q contract which the state
legislatures were forbidden to impair was
relied upon as definitely committing the
rate making power to the railway corpora
tons themselves, but in that year the
United States Supreme Court in the
''Granger Cases" ruled that q general
supervisory power over the charges of
common carriers existed in the state legis-
latures at common law superior to charter
clauses. This decision has not been with
drawn, but it was materially modified in
1890, when the Supreme Court decided
that there is a limit beyond which the
state cannot go in reducing railway rates,
which limit would be passed should a state
attempt to deprive a corporation of its
property without due process of law by
fixing rates too low to permit of fair re-
Enumeration for its use.
The essence of the Interstate Commerce
Law enacted in April, 1887, was to forbid
unjust discrimination by railways. The
railway managers admitted the wrong and
the necessity OF the application of proper
remedy, but fairly said that the evil was
the natural outgrowth of the extraordinary
violence of railway competition. In order
TO secure traffic railway official felt called
upon TO underbid his rival by private
rate. a rebate, free pass. a concession or
favor of some sort. When the act was
| passed railway rates in the United States
especially on long distance rates, were
so low as 20 be the wonder Of
the world. Except in isolated cases
the rates were generally low enough
aud in the Senate debate il was conceded
that the need of the public was not so
much lower rates as non-discriminating
and Notwithstanding rates.
OF course the general mercantile public
can see what the green dragons of the
! Farmers Alliance fail to see that il is of
vital consequence to the public that the
carriers earn enough to operate their prop
erty efficiently with safety to persons and
| property and insure reasonable compen-
sation Cor the employment of the neces-
sary capital.
Since the passage of the act the tendency
of freight rates throughout the country is
downward, and according to the repor, Of

lines carried at Franklin. Nashville would
have been lost, for ii would have deprived
Thomas of . 900 seasoned troops, without
which he could not have beaten Hood and
saved the city. Gen. Schofield was too
modest to claim any credit for his great ser
vices in this critical campaign, but Grants
eagle eye saw from Richmond that but
for schofeld the campaign would have
been wrecked, and the next spring he trans
ferred Schoield with the bulk OF Thomas
army TO North Carolina, where he fought
his way up from Wilmington and Kins-
ton and Joined Sherman with 5000 st
Goldsboro. Grant wanted Schoield, not
Thomas, to help him in his last great cam
paign; he knew that Schoheld was not
only skilIful but rapid, while Thomas was
too slow to conduct an offensive campaign.
The iaurels of Chickamauga all justly be-
long to Thomas. but to General Schoheid
justly belong the larger share OF those
given Thomas for Nashville.

INFRINGEMENT.

Those members of the Board OF Alder
men who are attempting to conceal their
real motives of objection to the retrench-
ment ordinance by pretense of doubling
its legality may be wiser than the half
score of lawyers who have examined and
approved the measure. but the public will
be slow to believe lt-notwithstanding the
fact that one of them has modestly con-
fessed it. The bubble is based upon
provision Of the charter which nobody
denies or questions, to the effect that there
shall be no change in the salary of any
official during the period of his official
term. Now the retrenchmens ordinance
does not attempt to enforce any change in
salaries. 1t provides what certain salaries
shall be, subject, of course, to the
superior authority of the charter. The
ordinance viii apply in an obligatory way
only 10 the successors Of the present off,
cials, and the Council may as properly
make the arrangement now as year from
now. If the present officials choose to yield
their legal claims and accept instead the
lesser provision arranged for their success
That they have agreed to this is simply
matter of good spirit in recogni-
ton of the necessities of the time;
and 1t is splendid exhibition
of civic integrity. We venture to answer
that there is not another city of equal
size in the United States whose officials
would under similar circumstances volun-
tariiy agree to an abnegation of legal
rights in matter so positively affecting
their own interests.
But this bug-a-boo of ilIegality has been
o mere pretense, a cover for the personal
schemes and interests of certain members
OF the Board Of Aldermen. There are in
this body three or four men who, in one
form or another, are making profit out of
the present financial stress of the city and
they do not want to see a change
that will cut off their profits and throw
their relatives and dependents out of fat
city jobs. But, fortunately, these merce-
naries do not make majority of the
board. We have faith that when its at
tendance is full Gt was not full when the
ordinance was thrown out two weeks back)
the retrenchment ordinance or substi-
tute that will embody its advantages will
be passed. This was never assured
But retrenchment will not be made
thorough or complete by the enactment of
this ordinance, excellent as it is. More
than this is needed to bring the current
charges of the city government down to a
level with the current revenue; and there
must be no halt in the work of pruning
till this has been accomplished. 1t
is inevitable that there should be
a cut or series of cuts in
the police and fire departments. Of
course, there will be great outcry when
this is attempted, but it must come
whether or not somebody may be dis
pleased. The police department is now
fairly well administered and cut here
would involve reduction of the force;
but even casual observer can see that
there is rank extravaganza in the fire de-
partment. There is no reason why the
present standard of efficiency could not be
maintained with very much reduced
monthly expenditure. What is done else
where surely can be done here.
