MEETING OF CHEMISTS.

The American Society VIII Convene Hero
TO-Day-P Pittsburg Not Represented in
the Association, but a Number of Local
Chemists Will LONESOME Disting guished
Teachers.
The annual meeting of the American
Chemical Society will be held in Pittsburg,
beginning to-day, and continuing on Thurs
day and Friday. The rooms of the En-
gineers' Society in the old Thaw residence
will be used for the meeting place
The association was founded in WASH
ington two years ago, and Prof
Caldwell, of Cornell University, is Presi-
dent Strange to saw, no Pittsburgers are
members of the organization. Probably no
city in the country has more chemists in
proportion to population, and the local
society numbers 90, Captain Hunt said
Yesterday that many of the Pittsburg chem
lists would join the society at this meeti ng.
The society meets here on the invitation
of the Engineers Society, and the visitors
will be guests of the members The associa-
tion has membership of 400, and fully 200
will be present As many of the college
professors belong to the society and the
schools are closed for the holidays the meet
ing is held at this time for their con-
venIence. An interesting programme has
been prepared. Papers will be read on SUBJ
jects attracting attention In the realm of
chemistry at present
A number of the chemists will be here
this morning. A. 81. Sabin, of New York,
is st the st. Charles. and John Howard APP
pleton, professor of chemistry in Brown
University, arrived on the limited last
evening. DR.. n. I. Lupton, State Chemist
for Alabama, is at the Seventh Avenue.
His principal duty is to make assays of all
the fertilizers used by Alabama gran
gers free of charge. He is one of
the organizers of the society, and
is enthusiastic over its growth. Prof Ap-
pleton and Prof Caldwell are recognized as
,wo of the ablest teachers of chemistry in
he country. Other men of note are also
lere and will attend the meeting. One of
he interesting features will be the visits to
he mills. 1t is safe to say that Pittsburgers
1eed more knowledge of chemistry in the
,onduct of their industries than any other
people in the country. Chemistry is used
in the various plants.

DEMOCRATIC HARMONY.

The Fifty-secofd Congress has not
fairly begun its session, but the smooth
and even surface of harmony is already
scanned with cracks which threaten to
open in yawning chasms.
Mills began it with his outspoken let
ter about the rebuke that must be ad-
ministered to ~ who had not voted for
him. Bland came in a good second when
he denied the right of Springer to speak
for the House on silver, or, indeed, on
any other question. And yesterday the
majority revolted from Holman, who
started out, in his retrenchment resolu-
ton, with blare of trumpets and a beat
ing of drums to proclaim TO the listen
ing nation: Behold an economical
government. See how easily for
nothing / will get you nothing
in return :" But the Democrats
were not satisfied. They wanted some
thing and they feared it was only for
something it could be obtained. They
resented Mr. Holman's remembering
their talk of economy when the money
was to be spent by Republicans, and
they resented even more bitterly his in
genuous proposal to take them at their
word. With majority like theirs were
there to be in truth no pickings among
the appropriations? And they fell, tooth
and nail, on Mr.. Holman, until in the
expressive language of Mr.. Reed, the
great economist was obliged to with
draw for repairs"
If these things are done in January,
what viii happen in July? The Demo
cratic force is liker mob than an army,
and the day is already lost to it, for be-
fore the battle begins it has lost all sense
of discipline.

CARDINAL MANNING.

Yesterday morning in the little room
at the top of the Archbishop's house
Westminster, there passed away a man
whose influence upon his time has been
strong, steady and singularly pure. The
bitterness engendered by the tractaran
movement has long since softened, and
when year ago last June Cardinal
Manning celebrated his episcopal jubi-
lee, not the Roman church alone but
men of all churches and Of no church
We'd to DO him honor.
Cardinal Manning was one of the last
survivors of those who took part in the
famous Oxford movement, if indeed it is
fair TO reckon him among them, seeing
that he was rather influenced by the
"Tracts for the Times" than one of the
active promoters Of the agitation. New
man had passed over to Catholicism five
years before, in 1851. he was followed by
Manning. Manning, like Newman, was
accused of having remained n conscious

human nature which assumes that man

of certain admissions or inquiries be-
forehand, because all men see them af-
forwards and ut this safe distance Of
time. after the lapse of half a century, il
is easy TO see that while the
impulse of the Oxford movement

THE BRITISH SUCCESSION.

The death of Albert Victor, Duke OF
Clarence and Avondale, leaves his
brother, Prince George, the heir TO the
British throne after the present Prince
of Wales shall have done with it. But
the second son is no more promising
physically than the first, nor is the Prince
Of Wales himself likely TO live so long as
his royal mother. rs he is Of by no
means robust constitution. Should
Prince George, like his elder brother, die
without issue, the succession would nat
urally pass TO the eldest daughter of
the Prince of Wales, the Duchess of Fife.
And in that event the question of the
succession of the Fife baby would have
to be settled.
The daughter of the Duke and Duchess
of Fife is not of royal blood, only her
mother having that distinction. The
Duke himself is of comparatively plebe-
ian origin, and has not a drop of royal
blood in his veins. When the baby was
born there was indeed a sort OF semi
official announcement that she was not
in the succession, but in the event OF
her mother becoming Queen and her
father consort, it would be rather diff
cult TO keep the child from following.
However, let us all hope there'll be
another King George. Wen like him
better than the third of that name.

JUSTICE TO MIR. BRECKENRIDGE.

The necessary condensation of a late
Washington despatch led the News at
first to the inference that Mr.. Brecken-
ridge of Kentucky, when he introduced
u resolution to repeal the reciprocity
section of the Mckinley act, went no
further. From this assumption we did
Mr. Breckenridge an injustice, repre-
senting him as inconsistent as the ordi-
nary Democrat.
1t seems, however, that Mr.. Brecken-
ridges resolution is constructive as well
as destructive, that after demolishing
the Blaine idea il proceeds to throw
open our ports to any and all nations
which will grant us free trade in re-
turn. The President is to open our
ports to "all the products of such coun-
tries as admit free our flour, corn meal
and other breadstuffs, preserved meats,
vegetables and fruits, cotton seed oil,
rice and other provisions, including all
articles Of food, lumber, furniture, and
all other articles of wood, agricultural
implements and machinery, mining
and mechanical machinery, structural
steel and iron, steel rails, locomotives,
railway cars and supplies, street cars,
refined petroleum, or such other pro-
ducts of the United States as may be
agreed upon.
IL will be noticed that we admit all
products in return for the admission of
certain specified products. For instance
there is tobacco, which is neither food,
structural iron nor petroleum. Great
Britain has revenue tariff upon tobacco.
She could continue to collect this, under
the Breckenridge resolution, while send
ing all her products here free of duty.
There is Bourbon whiskey, too, Ken
tucky product, which would pay tariff
tax in Great Britain, while we were
receiving Bass ale free of duty All of
the other country's products and of ours
such as may be agreed upon-that isn't
reciprocity. II is simple rechlessness.
Mr. breckenridge resolution is struc-
turally weak. 1t would disgrace col
lege sophomore. Yet, crude as it is, it
has a central idea, and that idea is free
trade.

The reports made at the annual meet
ing Of the Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty TO Children to-day show that it
is doing its best. Agent Thurber says
that 1913 children have come under the
notice of the society during the year and
gives judicious advice as to the perils of
young girls and the heartlessness Of some
parents. Certainly every town in the
State should help the society. President
Fanning's report that the society has
during its existence reformed and kept
300 families together is interesting to
cav the least.
