LONDON. Oct i7.-The workmen's

ured in the Trafalgar square riots five
years ago will reassert the right to hold
public meetings there by a monster
demonstration Sunday, November ID.
No official intimation has been made by
the home Office that the demonstration
will be prevented, and the superstition
that the home secretary will not act is
based on his assailing the late govern
ment for preventing meetings.

Foa SUNDAY OPENING.

At the regular meeting Of the
Worlds fair directors resolution
was passed favoring the opening Of
the Worlds fair gates on Sunday,
provided the machinery be not run.
The directors declare that as all
the nations Of the earth have been
invited to attend the fair, it wonld
be highly discourteousand inhospita-
Bile to inform them they can not do
on Sunday what they would do were
they at home.
"The closing Of the gates on Sum
day." says the resolution, "means
that thousands Of artisans aud me-
chamcs, to whom the exhibition will
be Of inexhaustible advantage, will
be unable to attend it,"
The directors are in favor Of all
lowing every nation TO hold within
the grounds such religious services
as it may desire on Sunday. They
also think it desirable that the gates
should be open to allow visitors
from different portions Of the union
to meet socially at their state build
ings.

Ms. sLAnrr's CASUAL REMARK,


Since bis return 70 Washington
Mr.. Blaine has received very few
callers and has said nothing for pub
location. Without quoting his words,
the substance Of a comment he made
10 a United States senator is inter
esting. The senator, who had
short conversation with Mr.. Blaine,
says il is the ex-secretary's opinion
that having lost the presidency, the
loss Of the senate as we'll as the
house is not an added misfortune to
the party. II now becomes abso-
lutely necessary for the Democrats
TO adopt in the next two years a def
mite policy. There can be no eva
sion, no subterfuge, no division Of
responsibility, as there was from
1885 to 1889. They have won the
election on the cry that the rich are
daily growing richer and the poor
poorer. They have asked every man
If he thinks he has his full share OF
the worlds riches, aud have hidden
HIM to vote the Democratic ticket
and thus secure an "equal division OF
profits"

EXTRA SESSION LrKrIY.

The strong probability Of an exrta
session Of congress Immediately after
the Inauguration Of the president
elect is the subject Of general con-
versation m Washington. A special
session Of the senate is always called
at the beginning Of a new admins
tration to confirm the members Of
the cabinet and the new diplomatic
representatives Of the United States
abroad. But the present election
having turned on questions Of domes.
tic policy, it is said TO be obvious 70
experienced political leaders Of all
parties that an extra session Of both
houses Of congress will almost newt
ably result.
Secretary Of the Treasury Foster,
among others, admits this. The
country, he says, challenged the
judgment Of the Republicans on the
Mckinley bill, and the result must
be accepted as the will Of the people
that a different policy shall be put
into effect. Ex.seoretary Bayard
writes to a friend in like effect,
adding that the people will expect
this 70 be done without unnecessary
delaY.

the B. & O. Railroad waslooking after
the old original survey that gave it
such short and easy route from Har-
