conservative voters as prudent wise and up
right man, who can be trusted to do his besb
for the public interest, and they reason that
Senators of his own party will be by no means
inclined to place themselves in antagonism to
him or an issue of such importance in the
months preceding a Presidential election. But
there is another phase of the matter which
they now see clearly, as they did not last fall
Tho division in the Democratic party on this
question is so broad and deep that if it is made
inc prominent issue in the next campaign the
defeat of that party is inevitable. Hence it is
that Democrats in Congress in considerable
numbers will find it political necessity to
avoid the veto which the President has ready
for Free-Coinage bill, and so to avoid making
this predominant issue in the next Presidential
campaign 1t is by no meals rs probable rs 1t
seemed last winter that thu Democrats will be
prepared at the next session Of Congress TO
force tho issue with the President on this ques-
ton.
Mr. Ceveland'S position, though intensely
dsliked by the largo majority of his party in
most Of the Western and Southern States, has
the determined approval of a considerable
minority in those States, amounting to about
Convention, and is strongly approved by the
more influential clements of that party in all
the Eastern States. Any action in the next
Democratic House which would make the silver
question predominant in the coming Presidential
campaign would be at once regarded by his
supporters throughout the country as a begin
ming of war against ex-President Cleveland
They would consider it an attempt to drive him
ont of the field by forcing an issue on which the
Democratic party is divided. Under such CIR
cumstances it is not to be expected that their
support can be obtained to any measure OF that
nature and without the determined support OF
all the Democrats in the Senate there is no
possibility of the passage Of Free-Coinage
Act over a Veto Hence it is that, in the light
of President Harrson's declaration, the silver
spectators may we'll dismiss from mind the
hope that reeCoinage bill can by any pos
sibility become law at the next session OF
Congress. Commercial security, soundness OF
currency, are not to be disturbed by dangerous
legislation while President Harrison remains in
office.

In forty years the "Atlantic record'' has
been lowered Ia days. Hardly year OF
all the forty can have gone by, certainly not
one of the many recOrd-breaking" years.
when experts have not been found ready 10
declare that at last the limit of speed had been
reached. Yet all the while that limit has been
receding at nearly uniform rate OF two hours
year. Since 1866 no record has lasted a
decade; only once has it held good for more
than half that time.
1t was in 1851 that the speed first fell below
the equivalent of nine days to Queenstown
In 1873 the eight-day mark was passed III
1882 seven days ceased to be thought much VI
a trip; two years ago six days were left behinu'
Moreover instead of showing signs of coming
to pause, this process of continuous acceiera-
ton of speed is going on as steadily as ever
and in an increasing ratio. Thus in the o"eh-
ty-five years from 1851 to 1876, when the er''
of the " ocean greyhound may be said to nave
begun, the reduction of time between ROche
Point and New-York was 81 IL hours Whlle
in the next fifteen years, from 1875 TO 1881
the gain was 80 hours. This was at the rate
of 1-2 hours every year.
Were it not too fanciful to apply such a
ratio with arithmetical eXactness one might ex-
pcct to see the fve-days' record, toward whlch
all eyes arc now turned established about the
year 1897 or 1898. To achieve this the
pressure by competing owners and their Gus
toners, an eager travelling public upon the
skill and talent of marino engineers and snip
builders will be enormous and incesant rive
days will mean that some Emphatic or Cin-
mera or City of Bagdal of the dying century
shall beat the late performance of the leu
tonic by more than two and thrce-quarter miles
in every hour In cutting down the seven-ahd-
a-ha!f days record to five and threc-quarters
while the size and capacity of the ships nave
been about doubled, the coal consumption has
been practically trcbIed What will the snip
be like that makes the 2,777 miles run IN live
DAYS at an average speed of 23.14 nautical
miles an hour? How much coal will she burn
in doing It? What will she cost and what VIII
il cost? Not that it matters much Tor the
travelling public of the young twentieth CEN
t1ry will be as ready to pay for " the fastest
as are their predecessors of the old nineteenth.

Tile MARTINIQUE CYCLONE.

The destruction of shipping and otter property
Mt Martinique last Tuesday, with large at'ehuahV
loss of life marks in startling way the opening

is then taken, except possibly to give warning
TO other parts But for n spot situated like Mar

seems 10 have been the case with this particular
storm. it was of little breadth though of great Sc

faint hint of the impending danger.
Mariners, would-be-voyageH, shippers and those
who own property along the Gulf and Atlantic
coasts which might suffer from gales and high
water always feel more or less apprehensive after
a West Indian cyclone is first reported, until it
is known to have recurved and left our neighbor-
hood While it is easy TO tell in about what lat
itude this change of course will probably occur,
only actual observation at two or more points
will determine whether the northward and north
eastward swing will commence near Bermuda,
Florida or the mouth Of the Rio Gande. Last
NIGHTS indications were that the present storm
has already begun to turn up toward Cuba and the
United States.

THE PRESIDENT AND SILVER.

Tho price OF silver bullion dropped in tho
speculative market, and few quiet words from
President Harrison were the cause. His formal
address al Bennington reiterated, in even more
unequvocal form, the declaration made by him
at Albany regarding the question of silver coin
age. He said:
l believe that conservative views of finance will
prevail in this country. l am sure discomfort and
temporary distress will not tempt people to for
sake those safe lines of public administration in WHICH
alone commercial security rests AS long AS the Cen
eral Government furnishes the money " the people for
their great business transactions. believe VIC win
Insist have said before. that every dollar issued,
whether paper or coin, shall be good and be kept
as good as any other dollar that issues. The parity,
the equality of what We call dollars must be pre-
served or an element Of uncertainty and of bank
wDtcy will be introduced into all business transac-
TONS This I may say without crossing lines of
division How this end IS to be obtained / win not
attempt to sketch but do not hesitate 10 shy that
feel myself in the public interest pledged far as
in me lies 10 maintain that equality between cir
culatng money that Is essential 10 the perfect use
of all
1t was not without reason that the spocu-
latoIs in silver regarded this declaration as a
positive assurance that an unlimited coinage
bill would be vetoed. Many times before the
PRESIDENT ha0 expressly asserted mat IN his
deliberate opinion, the unrestrained coinage of
silver would tend to expel gold from general
use as currency, and TO establish difference in
value between gold coin and the paper redeem
able in gold on one hand, an1 silver coin and
the paper redeemabe in silver on the other.
In the first craze of excitement over the cleo
tons last fall some silver men boosted that free
coinage could and would be carried next win
ter, even though the bill should be vetoed,
whle Others predicted that the President would
sign such measure. His emphatic declara-
tons now make it clear that his deliberate
judgment, so often expressed heretofore has in
no way been changed. lie holds himself
pledged in the public interest to protect tho
soundncss of the currency and the equality of
all its parts.
As to the possibility of passing a Free-C Coin
age Act in spite of a veto the enthusiasts arc
not by any means so hopeful as they Were some
months ago. They have learned by this time
that President HanisOn's strength with his
party is great, that he.has in a remarkable de-
gree the confidence of the plain people and the

stead of moro than half And again Mr.. Car
Isle insisted:
The average rate Of duty upon all importations to
tas country. dutlabe and free, under existing law Is
90 IL per cent, but the average rate Of duty under this
MI upon all lmpotaons into this country, dutiable
and free will be over 30 IL per cent.
Now the fact is that the actual duties paid
during tho three months were S3S,217,00O,
and only 1GS per cent of the total value, whore
as it had been 29.5 per cent, and Mr.. Carlisle
asserted that it would BE- 30.5 per cent.

Some presumably good souls uptown are dis
turbed because the Rlpld-1ransit Commission is
not doing its work with greater rapidity. 1t is
true that these officials do not appear to be AMI
mated by that mountaineering desire which has
such n firm hold large portion Of the world /;
but it is by means clear as yet that they are
entitled TO any degree of censure. What they
have engaged in is big job, and on the whole
they have done well thus far. They have agreed
upon general plans for rapld-transit roads on both
sides of the city, and that is indispumbly good
start Now the details Of their plans have TO be
worked out the form Of structure agreed upon, and
n thousand and one other smaller matters looked
after 1t is only fair TO give the Commissioners
time. They possess the confidence Of the com
munity, and to talk about demanding" their
resignation at this early day is simply childish.

Mr.. CARLIS1ES ERRORS AND TIE FACTS

Mr.. CARLISLE'S ERRORS AND THE FACTS
In his closing speech on the new Tariff bill,
September 30, Mr.. Carlisle made certain state
ments which can now be tested by facts. He
asserted that the new tariff would increase the
rate of duties upon dutiable articles to over 60
per cent. He said:
Then unless all my calculations arc Mt fault, the
average rate of duty under this bill and the admins
tratve act will be 60 per cont upon the dutabc
articles instead Of 45I3 per cent, 1t Is under the
present law.
The actual value of all dutiable imports in
nine months ending June 30 Of which all but
five DAVIS of October was under the new tariff,
was S334.244.76S. The actual amount Of
duties collected in the same period was S153,-
597, 600. The actual rate Of duty was 1895
pcr cent including the heavy imports of articles
bearing high rates of duty during tho first five
DAYS of October under the old tariff. Were
these imports omitted the actual rate OF duty
for nearly nine months under the new tariff
would be less than As per cent. Mr. Carlisle
was therefore deep in error when he asserted
that the new tariff would increase the rate OF
dutiablo imports to over 6 per cent, and it was
an error to say that it would increase the rate
at all.
But he may justly object that this is not quite
a fair test because the most important pro-
vision of the new tariff, relating to sugar did
not % into effect until April 1, and thus was
operative only thrco months ont Of the nine.
Let it be conceded that fairer test is to take
the actual imports and duties for the three
months, April-June inclusive. In those months
the total imports land the dutjable imports are
,bo,vn os fellows

The finding Of Almy, the Hanover IN. HD
murderer, is not less sensational than the crime
no committed, coupled rs it is with the TACT
that he has been concealed for more than
month within a few rods of the scene of the
murder. The failure of the officers of the law
TO find Almy is of piece with his holding them
at bay in the barn during long parley, In
which he undertook 10 dictate the terms OF his
surrender and obtain assurance of n fair trial
The conduct Of the Sheriff and constables be-
fore and after the discovery of this fugitive
reflects no credit upon the methods of dealing

whole performance: the murderer of Christine
