Katie Got the Book.

Katie was going to bed after day Of
toll minding her sick and MANNED dolls
chronic invalids all of them-and her
b-e-a-u-tiful duck, the one old quacker
that Travelled with the hens because he had
no better company. The robin that had
been watching her out of the corners of his
bright eyes, as he ran over the lawn and
listened to her prattle, was asleep already
with his head under his wing, and Katie's
hung heavily on mothers shoulder as she
was undressing her. Nov / lay me" had
been said, with many yawns in between,
and mammals pet had been tucked in
snugly; but just as the sleepy eyes were
closing she sat suddenly bolt upright.
Mamma" she said, 81 want Johnnie's
picture book-that with the lambs"
'Hush, Katier, said her mother, the
least bit wearily, for the little feet and the
little tongue had never ceased going one
moment all day. "Now we will go to
sleep"
"But, mamma" and the big eyes pleaded
earnestly, cant have Johnnie's picture
book this onst?"
"Not tonight, dearie; it is too late"
Mamma" said Katie, sitting up very
straight and looking very solemn indeed,
81 heard story of little girl-she was a
good little girl-that asked her mamma
0nst when she was put to bed for the pict-
ure book with the lambs, and the mamma
told her she couldn't have it, and-and'-
the baby voice fell to an awed whisper and
the eyes grew very big-''in just-about-
two-minutes-she was deadp'
"My, Katiel And what killed her SC

''because she didn't get the book"
She got it, and in five minutes was asleeE

NARROW ESCAPES.

A London correspondent of the New York
Tribune tells how the house of Barring
Brothers was saved from bankruptcy. The
Barings made their condition known to the
Governor Of the Bank of England and asked
assistance. Their liabilities exceeded $780,
CO0OOO. Their assets were in excess of that
sum. The correspondent says that the
Governor of tie Bank Of England reasoned
that to allow the Barring Brothers to fail
would have been the signal for a financial
crash ." to which all other financial disasters
in history would have been but trife"
The Bank of England ihereupon subscribed
100000 10 guarantee fund which ulti-
nately reached 1900 COO. The time thus
afforded enabled the Barings 10 realize on
their assets, and il is now considered certain
that none Of the subscribers to the fund will
be called upon to make their subscriptions
good. The Bank OF England and other

EDITORIAL NOTES.

One Of the big moTiars now being constructed
for the Government at Providence, has been
finished. II is a twelge-inch bleech-IOadng
IltfeG mortar, ten feet, nine inches long, with
diameter OF about five feet at the largest part.
In casting The mortar twenty-five tons of the
best Charcoal big iron were melted down and after
the casting was made il took FIVE or six days 10
cool. IL was then turned on the outside and
bored out. The gun, as IL then stood, without
the steel rings, was obliged to stand a pressure
OF 80, 600 pounds To the square inch. Two LAYERS
of steel rings were then put on. The Inst layer
consists OF seven rings two and three-eighths
inches thick and ten inches wide. The second
layer consists Of six rings two and threequarters
inches thick. In putting on these rings tho
mortar, placed on carriage, was run over an
oven In which fierce fire of gas was burning.
The healed rings were then forced Oh by pres

sixth OF the threads being cut away. The breach
block has alternate sixths OF threads. When
sfid into position ii is turned n sixth OF the

WILL BLAINE REFUsEq

An item to the effect that Whitelaw Reid
would return from France TO take charge of
the Tribune and inaugurate Blaine cam
paign is probably a bit of speculation
thrown upon the political sea to Indicate
the drift of currents That the Tribune
would lead Blaine's fight if he should desire
to make one is probable, but it is not by any
means certain that Blaine would accept
Presidential nomination under the most ia
yorable conditions that can be hoped for. If
anything should happen between now and
the holding of the National Convention TO
cause the retirement of President Harrison
the conditions would be more favorable to
Mr.. Blaine. But Harrison is not believed
TO entertain any proposition to step down
and out. He will go before the convention
With the prestige of having defeated the OPP
ponent who defeated MIR. Blaine. The fact
will not be conclusive tFat he would be a
stronger candidate than Mr.. Blaine, but il
is one that can be urged with great force.

WHEN THE COURTS FAIL.

There is no evidence to warrant the con-
elusion that the eleven men who were killed
in the New Orleans Jail on Saturday were
in any way pTejudiced in the minds Of the
people OF that city on account Of their
nationality. 1t is extremely probable that
If a number Of Americans should form them
selves into an association in defiance OF law
and should take the life of an official public
servant whom they found in their way, they
would be proceeded against precisely as
were the Sicilians who were charged with
the murder of Chief OF Police Hennessy.
Well known and thoroughly respectable
Italian citizens have spoken Of the killing
of the eleven Sicilians at New Orleans as an
offense against their nationality, So it
would be if the fact of nationality had any
thing to DO with the action Of the New Or
leans avengers. But there is every reason
30 believe that if the same evidence mad
been brought againsta number Of men OF
any other nationality the action OF the peo-
Die of New Orleans would have been the
same. In other words, the eleven men were
not Killed because they were Sicilians, but
because they we're criminals. Organizations
like the NJ AHA cannot be tolerated In free
county. There is no excuse for them. Un-
der system of impartial laws there is
remedy for every oppression. A Sicllian
has he same civil rights as an American.
He is protected in life, liberty and prop
erty precisely as il he were native If the
country The last straw" in the case OF
the Siciians was the belief that they had
tempered with the courts The foreman Of
the july which tried and acquitted them is
under arrest. Some consideration has been
given to the fact that the jury was composed
Of Americans. 1t is urged that jury of
Americans would not acquit SicIlians ex-
cppt for lack of evidence. The sack, in
case one was used, takes ali the force out Of
that argument An American juror who
Nould sell his verdict would not be wise in
his discrimination among nationaities.
The cffense which the American people re-
gard with the greatest impotence is the
tauUtring with courts. So long as courts
serve their purpose. an epidemic OF crime
does not excite alarm. Punishment of
crime will in time reduce the lawess classes
to subsection. But when the courts fail, the
individual feels within his heart the rising
Of a sense of the rights he has surrendered
to society. When courts fail habitualIy and
conspicu0usly this feeling becomes para
mount to all others. Life, honor and prop
erty ale in jeopardy when the courts sur

The New York FL Eco dItdlid says "we
want satisfaction-ful and complete. If the
Minister at Washington has not at this hour
made his word good, 100000 Italians resid-
ing in the United States will know what to
do" This is a foolish threat The 1000, 900
Italians residing in the United States have
nothing in common with the secret organ
iZatiOn which some months ago caused the
murder Of Chief Of Police Hennessy. They
should not be in such haste to make conf
mon cause with criminals.

LOSING GRouNp.

Washington correspondence states that the
information received at the Office of the
Bureau of Statistics is not as favorable to
San Francisco as has been anticipated. 1t
is stated that tue subsidies 10 the Canadian
Pacific Railroad and British steamship lines
enable them to handle freight at a less rate
than American railroads and vessels can
afford. a remedy for this, so far as freight
between American ports is concerned, will
be found in the withdrawal of the trading
privilege from all foreign roads. No suffi-
cient reason has ever been given why a
foreign railroad company should be per-
mtted to do that which foreign vessels are
prohibited from doing-that is, to carry
freight and passengers from one American
town to another. The navigation laws rule
foreign vessels out of the cOastwise trade,
but treaty with England permits railroad
company to take freight in one American
town. carry it through foreign country and
into another American town. Among the
things the late Congress failed to do was to
place the Canadian Pacific Company on the
same footing in respect TO the American
carrying trade that foreign vessels are forced

While the San Francisco Hussars were
forming yesterday morning on Post street,

STREET-CAR COLLISION.
A Dangerous Practice Which Should BE
Put Stop To.

A Dangerous Practice Which Should Be
Put Stop To.
Shortly after O'Clock yesterday afternoon
a collision, the result of the extremely dan
gerous practice of gripmen on cable roads to
see how close they can run their trains to any
object without striking il, occurred at the
intersection Of Ellis and Larkin streets.
Train No 10 of the Ellis-street line was
moving westward, and at Larkin street re-
ceived the usual notice from the signal-ma n
to 90 ahead. AT this time Train No. IS Of the
Sutier-strePt line was on Larkin street NOV
ing southwark. The gripman on the Suffer-
street train was us ing the brake-bar to slow
up his train, and had he been so inclined
could have come to full stop, but he con-
tinued on slowly, and before the ElliS-street
train could cross the LaTkin-slreet track the
dummy of the Sutter-stleet line struck with
considerable force against the rear end of
the Ellis-street car, smashing in the side,
tearing away the iron guard outside of the
wheels, and wrenchlDg the hind axle. The
passengers on the Ellis-street car-there
were nine on the side that was struck-were
thrown from their seats, and they were COW
cred with splinterS of shivered glass, but for
tunately no one was injured except one gen.
tleman, who had the back of his hand cut by
a piece of glass. No one was hurt ON the
Sutter-street tram. The SutteT-Street people
claim exemption from blame for the reason
that they have the right of way. This is
undoubtedly true, but it does not give en-
ployes of any company the privileges of en-
dangering the limbs and lives Of passengers.
The practice of slowing up cable trains by
gfipmen who wish to see how close they can
come 10 car ahead, or one crossing is one
that the Directors of the various roads
should stop. and if they cannot do it then
tile Supervisors should pass an ordinance
compelling carmen to keep certain distance
from an object in adv ance Of train movin g
across a track.

losses are supposed to have swallowed up
whatever capital the partners had in the
business. 1t is even asserted that the
greater part of the private fortunes of the
members of the firm have been required to
hold the guarantee fund intact. "A financial
crisis may be tidcd over in this way, but the
depression which generally follows such
disturbances is still attended with danger.
In determining the fact of solvency some
estimate must be placed upon the market
value of such securities as the threatened
institution possesses. If through continued
depression the market value falls below
these estimates, there will be an unlocked
for loss to be made good from some source.
