II is only brief question Of time when
the Greek language will be pulled down
from the lofty position which it has
hitherto occupied in the education
world. 1t was great shock to the mod
ern conservatism when Charles Francis
Adams few years ago exposed the fol-
lies Of Hellenic worship before the Phi
Beta Kappa society Of Harvard College
In a mastery address entitled "a
College Fetch" Not long after
this the Greek language WAS
dropped from the compulsory studies
In the Harvard curriculum. 1t now looks
as IL i. would have to step down from
the high place it has SO long occupied in
European universities. Emperor VIII
liams attack upon the classics in the
German gymnasis met with far more
hearty amen from his scholastic
and conservative people than could
possibly have been looked for. And
now this great educational movement is
even knocking at The doors OF the old
English schools and universities.
At the recent conference of the head
masters Of the public schools at Oxford.
Mr. Weldon, the head master OF Har-
row, moved a resolution declaring that
ii would be gain TO education if Greek
were not compulsory subject" in
Cambridge and Oxford. The resolution
was supported by the head masters Of
Marlborough, Wellington, Rugby, Cliff
ton and Shrewsbury, and though it failed
of passage. it was rejected only bya vote
of 81 nays to 20 yeas.

The anxiety of the French peasants to
invest in government loan is sign Of
faith, in France. but not necessarily of
faith in the continuance of the repub-
lican form of government. In all the
various changes in France no form of
government has ever attempted to repu-
diste the financial obligations of its pre-
decessor. Herein lies the chief source
Of frances magnificent credit.

Unless the revenues for the next fiscal year

way Directors.
New YORK, June 2a.-The trial Of the New
Haven railroad directors for misdemeanor in
heating their cars with stoves instead Of steam
was continued today. DIR. Chauncey NJ. De-
pew was present with the other directors in
court.
Mr.. Thatcher, counsel for the defendants,
spoke in their behalf He cOntended that the
case was made against individuals and not
against the corporation and that crime must
be fastened upon the individual. Counsel
made a motion TO dismiss the indictments as to
each and all the defendants. District Attorney
Nicon argued against this motion.
Judge Van Brunt said he was still OF the
opinion that no man can be made to suffer
vicariously. All the cases cited were cases
where the principals had previously au-
thorized their agents to do certain
things. The directors of the railroad were
and others and TIE New York and New Haven
railroad alone vas responsible. In conclusion
the Judge said: Il think from the evidence that
Mr.. Reed is an a measure responsible. AS TO
the other directors, there seems nothing to hold
them.
AS to the president, there is some ground
of belief that be had active participation. i,
therefore, advise the jury to acquit all the de-
PENDANTS except President Clark"
