words "persona grata." have heard clubmen, who
probably knew other Latin words, applying these
to man whom they meant to describe in the English
sense as a person or individual agreeable to them.
The two words never, by accident, in good
Latin mean this except in inference. The phrase Is
correctly used In diplomacy meaning that minis
ter or ambassador is agreeable TO the power where
he is accredited the representative Of his govern
ment lie impersonates the power that has sent him.
and in that only he be persona, either gfata
or non gTata. An echo OF the true Latin Specification
of the word is found in such phrases as he came In
person." that Is represented himself instead OF being
present by proxy Ii is true that In late and careless
Latin the word persona is used Improperly as
meaning an individual. Even good Iatinst as
the Jesuit VavassOr TO fall into this error But
there is no need of perpetuang the blunder which is
particularly offensive In hat IT leads TO vulgar ana
gross misrepresentation of the word person In the
dogma Of the Trinity, and to very silly mistakes IN
from the classics. X.

RAILWAY CHARGES AND THE TARIFF.

TO the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: In reference to the article In today's Tribune
entitled The Tariff and Railway Charges" let me cite
you TO a little English testimony. l have before me
little volume History of Prices Since the Year
1850 by Michael Mulhall; London, 1886" Null
hall is, you know, of the most prominent
English statistcians. on page 81 of this volume, in
summarizing the chief points made in a chapter on
Railways and Teeraphs," he has this to say as his
third point-I copy verbatim:
THAT railway freghts in Great Britain are II per
cent over the average the Continent and more than
double those Of tho United States"
Now if railroad transportation IN the United States
Is enhanced in cost $3.50 100000 annually by tariff
and Is still conducted mt less than half the charge for
the same service in Great Britain what would be Its
cost without the tariff Ii would that the state
ment quoted ought to silence The Commercial Bulle
tin II would to be about far off the track
those economists who hold that tariff in all adds
the amount Of the duty to all manufactures Of the class
taxed produced at home. G. L. WILLIAMS.
