There is no question that the railroad companies
which have united in making application for the
of Che trolley are in genuine earnest The four which
have Joined hands in this matter the principal
roads Of the city and comprise large number of lines
Their application is made both TO the Board Of Alder
men and 10 the State Railroad Commissioners. Two
OF the companies have already received a qualified
permission to introduce this form OF electric traction
II is needless TO refer again to the status OF the COney
Island and Brooklyn Company on this question. The
Atlantic Avenue Company secured the consent of the
Railroad COmml ssioncrs to the trolley on part
of its lines but the approval Of the Aldermen on
certain points required and nothing has ben
done in that direction. Now the companies have
pooled their issues and evidently intend 10 make a
rafting fight all along the line What do the people OF
Brooklyn mean TO do about IL They must act soon
or the trolley will be in their midst" before they

A former resident of Baltimore, who il
now an Atlanta citizen, gave me some in
teresting points about German yester-
day.
~ will make a prediction" said the
speaker, ito this effect: That inside of
three years the foremost man of this coun-
try will be Arthur Z. German of Mary
land. He was formally declared the
leader of the Democratic side of the SEN
ate, and they gave way to his magnificent
mon consent. They obey his orders with
out a question. Why, the manner in
which he has piloted the party To a grand
victory, and has saved the whole country
from great disaster in this last fight on
the infamous Force bill demonstrates that
the party has at last got man before
whom Dudley and Quay and Ingalls, are
as children to giant.
And the best of 1t is that his methods
are always pure and clean. Another man
would have allowed hot-blooded partisan
speeches to be made, and thus forced the
Republicans to be unit, and have given
them q good reason for passing the meas
ure and have awakened public sentiment
at the North in their favor, German
strictly forbade single reply on that line
to all of the taunts of Hoar and Aldrich
publicans were divided and German
scored the greatest victory of his life.
~ do not know" he continued "that
he Will ever be President, but this / do
know, that there will never be another
Republican President while German is at
the head of the Democratic party. He
stands to-day in learning, in eloquence, in
statesmanship, and in marvellous genius
without peer, and is to-day the greatest
statesman living in my humble opinion.
His fame has only just begun TO spread
outside Of Maryland, but long years ago

him. But however comfortable such
opinions may be ut times, the alfalfa is

Governor Hill has not yet accepted
formally his election to the Senate, but
his silence amounts to acceptance, for, IL
he were going to decline, he ought to have
done SO at once. He is having consider
able annoyance from the press of his

his obvious desire to retain the Governor

Vice-President Morton is an easy-going,

Nonsense. Mr.. Morton is young man

Treasury would serve as vehement Exc
cutive protest against any debasement of

with questions of finance and currency
and the known soundness of his views
would make him so conspicuous an ex.

"what's Your Last Name?"

This story is being told IN the German
clubs of this town; When Baron Won Seid-
letz-Leipe, Brewer Ehret's son-in-law, ar
rived at the lIoboken pier Of the North
Gently he was met by Captain Hamelman,
formerly Of the steamer Werra, and now
in charge Of the companys piers.
"What is your name?" asked the Cap
tain Of the noble stranger preparing to
enter the reply in his record.
The baron began TO enumerate his vari-
ous titles and Christian names, but had
only got half through when the Captain
interrupted him With
"Oh, hang it, you left all those in Ger
many. You're in America now. What's
your last name?"
The baron, who was exceedingly taken
aback, gave the desired information and
hastily passed on to meet his friends.

The Personnel of the Navy.
From the Ne,D York Tribune.

HjOW We NtU lON IFtOUNt.
IL seems to us that the condition of
affairs in the Navy, of which Secretary
Tracy has complained so eloquently, may
well be regarded as deserving the atten-
tion of Congress. The trouble is not one
that can be reached by any process now
at the disposal of the Department. It is
the outgrowth of existing laws and OBJ
serVances and can be corrected only after
those laws and observances shall have
been amended.
No one will deny, however, that some
thing should be done. Unless Secretary
Tracy has totally misunderstood the situ-
alton and extravagantly exaggerated the
evils growing out of 1t, our Navy IS in
danger of becoming demoralized and in
efficient as to its personnel. The list in
promotion are closed to the youth, the
vigor and the enthusiasm of the service.
Mr.. Tracy has shown that officers now
attain places of command only after their
greatest usefulness has been frittered
away in the long routine of subordination
and the edge Of their faculties dulled by
indifference. They acquire responsible
ties after they have lost the power of
graphing with them and receive author
ity when age and disappointment have
rendered them incapable of recognizing
in 1t anything beyond the larger pay and
more abundant ease ii represents. III this
be true, and Mr.. Tracy is positive that it
is, assuredly Congress should take the
matter under consideration. The idea
that, while spending millions upon the
material of the service, we should permit
the personnel to degenerate is intolerable.
OF course We understand that nothing
definite can be done during this session,
nor is it desirable that in a matter so mo-
mentous action should be hurried or in
considerate. But Senate committee
might be appointed to investigate the sub
ject and to report the facts to the next
Congress, together with recommendations
as to q suitable remedy. In this way the
Lid Congress would be supplied with all
necessary material for action, and we
might hope at an early day to arrest an
evil which now threatens to destroy not
the structure, perhaps, but certainly the
the vital principle of the American Navy.
The critic., 1891-02-02

in Baltimore we always knew we we're
safe when Arthur j. German took the
helm and guided the party's ship through
the troublous waters Of battle safe into
the peaceful haven Of victory.
ut can be said of him that he never
forgot friend, never Jailed TO punish a
mistake and always won whatever he
undertook to win. Calm, stern, kindly,
implacablc at times and generous in word
and act where generosity was deserved
he is at once the biggest Drained, broadest-
minded and best equipped man in public
life. And yet he has barely turned his
5oth year. My advice to you IL you wish
