Sweaters and tho Public.

WASHINGTON, May 5.-The wage-work-
ers have persuaded congress to under
take an investigation of sweaters in
American cities that have already had
good results from the publicity of its in
quiries. Repressive Legislation may be
found necessary but no one expects that
it will reach the root of the evil. The
influence of loosely administered immi-
grafton laws upon the overcrowded labor
market in cities is a legitimate corollary
of the present Investigation. The awak-
ening of boards of health to the enormity
of disease breeding workshops is another
result that is hoped for. Butsthe setting
of the legal machinery in motion will
hardly help the victims of the sweating
process as much as the formation of a
sound public sentiment against thought
lessly countenancing the evil. Individ-
uals can make sweat shops unpopular
and improbable. The purchaser of
clothes can insist on knowing the con-
ditions under which they were made.
He can refuse topatronize the emporium
where goods are handled that are the
product. of sweat-shops.

River and HarBor BIN is safe.

WASHINGTON, May 5.-As anticipated,
economist Holman endeavored in every
way to prevent the consideration OF the
river and harbor bill but it was shown
beyond all question that the majority of
the members of congress believes this
bill is an Important one and ought to be
passed. The action Of the house today
in deciding to consider. the bill means
practically that when the time comes it
will go through. It was observed that
those members who opposed it were the
ones who received nothing in their dis
tricts for river and harbor improve
ments.

Arson as a Fine Art,

CHICAGO, May 5.-The recent trapping
of certain professors of arson in Chicago
is very important for more reasons than
one. The disclosures prove that the
detestable crime is not confined to skulk-
ing maurauders, bent on revenge or
plunder. The systematic defrauding of
insurance companies was carried on by
fires started deliberately in. fashionable
residence districts. According to the
preliminary evidence, a band of we'll
dressed conspirators moved from place
to place, taking out policies on cheap
furniture and then setting fire to the
furniture. In this way snug sum
seems to have been realized from the in
surance companies. The boldness of this
procedure is not the only thing con-
nected with II. that is of interest to the
public. 1t is the possible consequences
Of arson that render it SO Infamous a
crime. Bad as is the burning of bust
ness property, those who deliberately
set fire to occupied dwellings at night
easily surpass that grade Of crime.

Talked indiscreetly--But wen.

BRUsLELs, May To-day, at Mons,
the man who divulged the anarchist plot
was arrested. The prisoner, with four
other men, arranged to blow up the res
licences of several leading citizens. The
arrested man had in his possession five
powerful dynamite cartridges, and it is
believed if he had not talked indiscreetly
to a-supposed fellow-workman, who was
detective in disguise, that Mons would
have suffered serious and disastrous
explosion. -Four other men will soon
be arrested. The police today discovered
the location of the anarchists in the out
skirts of the city. A printer was ar
rested and a dynamite cartridge found
on a window-sill of house near Liege.
The fuse was ignited, but quenched, and
the explosion thwarted. The police oi
Liege today searched over fifty houses in
which anarchists resided.

BARCELONA, Venezuela, May 4.-Pres-
ident Palacia has sent an army from the
capital to engage the enemy. A battle
may be expected south of Caracas. The
object of the president in this move
seems to be to draw the revolutienists
from Valencia and Calabossa, which
they now surround, preventing commu-
nication between the government gen.
erals Ybarra, Aranjo and Casanas, who
are located in these towns and the cap
ital. If Palacio's forces should prove
victorious, they will undoubtedly march
to the relief of the beseiged cities.
Palacio seems to have arrived at the
conclusion that he must act aggressiyely
or the revolutionists will become so pow
erful that they will sweep all before
them.

Reported purchase of soeorro.

SAN Francisco. May "A rather
startling story is circulated here, that
part of the island of Socorro, off the
coast of Mexico ard belonging to that
republic, has been sold to the British
government. Itis stated the price paid
was $100, 900. Socerro is not much of
an island, but there is good bay there
and it would be a first-class place for a
coaling station. England is very anx-
ious to make a coaling station in that
part of the world, and this fact lends
color to the story. AT the Mexican con-
sulate they say they have no news of
such sale and do not think it is prob
able event. A merchant, whose advices
keep him constantly informed concern
ing occurrences in Mexico said: "The
Diaz government would not dare make
such sale. In the first place they
would not offend the United States, as
this would undoubtedly do. But the
main argument against the probability
of the sale of the island is that the Mex
lean people are exceedingly jealous of
their land and would resent the sale of a
foot OF it. 1t would produce much the
same effect as the sale of an American
island would on your people," The is
land of Socorro is one of the group near
which the brig Tahiti was lost. The
island is uninhabited, and is covered by
rugged mountains.

An Important Expedition.

New YoRK, May 4.-W. Il. Glider
who, with Lieutenant Schwatka, won
fame in bringing back from the Northern
regions information respecting Franklin
and his expedition, again proposes to
make journey to the North, this time
at the head of party to make a mag
.netic survey Of the region Immediately
surrounding the Northern magnetic pole.
The American Geographical society, the
National Academy of sciences at Wash
ingtou, members of the United States
coast survey and number of other
scientists are interested in the proposed
expedition. Although some funds have
been pledged for fitting out the party
and carrying on the work, nothing def
mite has been determined in the way of
plans and the money required. The
American Geographical society, with
Col. Glider, has taken the initiative in
the matter, and for the purpose of dis
cussing the exploration the society held
a special meeting last night in Chicken
ing hall. Prof. Trow bridge said as the
result of the expedition the magnetic
pole might not only be located, but the
whole world OF terrestrial physics bene-
fitted. He said in his opinion all mag
netic surveys on land should be prohib-
tied, as the true Importance and bene-
fits derived were on sea alone. He
looked forward to the time when sta
ton would be established in the neigh
borhood of the magnetic pole, and tele-
graphic communication made between
it and the resteof the world.

STEUBEN, N. w.: May 4.-Childlaw-
Evans is well-to-do and easy-going
farmer of this town, past middle age.
He married, late in life, woman much
younger than himself She liked to
wear good clothes and have lively com
panlons.zi Eli Jones, a young man about
town, who was said to have been an ad-
mlrer OF Mrs. Evans before she was mar
ried, continued to pay her marked atten-
tions. After marriage the unsuspicious
farmer raised no objections, although
other people were less tolerant. and won
dered how farmer Evans could permit
his wife to pass so much time in the
company of the gay young bachelor Jones.
One day last week Mrs. Evans expressed
a desire to go to Utica and get some
spring dresses. The same day Mr.. Jones
came around and suggested to Mr.. Evans
that he contemplated making business
trip to Utica, and if Mr.. Evans would
lend his carriage, he. (Jonesl would drive
Mrs. Evans to the city and. return that
lady and the rig safely home at season.
able time. Mr.. Evans lent Jones the
carriage and bountifully replenished his
wife's purse for the shopping tour. The
pair failed to return at the appointed
hour, and hasty search of the house
disclosed the fact that they had carried
off with them big trunk containing all of
Mrs. Evans best dresses and jewelry
and the family silverware. The fugftives
have been traced across the country to
HEerkimer, and are reported to have
taken West Shore train there for Chi
+cago. Mr.. Evans will begin an action
for divorce.

Their Descendants Are Requested to Re-
turn Their Insignia.
The representatives of deceased
knights of the bath until recently, says
the London World, have never been
required to return their insignia, al
though of considerable value, the collar
having been made of pure gold Knights
of ST. Michael and st. George have not
been relieved of that obligation; but
their insignia are not of great value.
The insignia of knights of the garter,
the thistle and st. Patrick, respectively,
must be returned, and the son of de-
ceased knight of the garter is nearly al
ways granted an audience by the SOW
ereign when it is delivered.
During Queen Victoria's reign there
have been only three vacancies in which
the queen did not personally receive the
insignia of the deceased knight. When
foreign sovereil n dies who is a knight
of the garter his insignia comes back
directly to the lord chamberlain through
the foreign Office. Prince Alberts in
sigma of the garter are preserved by
the queen in the private apartments at
Windsor castle, and George ". left or
ders for his insignia to be buried with
him

Surfdonn In Siam.

The king of Siam is said to perambu-
late the streets of his capital disguised
in plain clothes for the purpose of learn
ing the true condition of the people and
initiating reforms, several of which
have already been. started. The chief
evils in Siam are surfdom, slavery, the
farming of taxes and the corruption of
justice. Serfdom is universal, with the
result that a man is quite uncertain
when he may call his time and his la
Dor his own. For so many months in
the year he is bound to serve his chief,
and at any time he may be called on for
especial kings service" For instance,
when prince is on his travels every
district, through which he passes is
called upon to supply him with food
and transport. If news comes that a
prince or high official is travelling it is
not uncommon for owners of boats to
request European subject to take tenn
porary charge of them, while they them
selves disappear into the jungle. Ele-
plants can always be taken for the
kings service. -
A Novel Railroad Car.
From the timber region in Clatsop
county, Ore, comes q novel notion of
cutting off section of a tree the length
OF an ordinary railroad car, and then,
with an adze and other proper tools, cut
the door, in the ends, the windows at
the sides, and make a regular sure
enough car for folks to ride in out of
one solid section from a tree. That
would be great object lesson, and
would give the eastern people a correct
and vivid idea Of the kind of trees ON
the coast.
Flaxseed I'm tho Eye
Putting faxseed under the lid of the
eye to get out cinder which has acci-
dentally lodged there may seem a Curl
ous method of abolishing nuisance,
but is nevertheless quite effective.
After the seed has been moistened by
the secretions of the eye it exudes a
mucilage, which not only alleviates the
irritation Of a foreign body, but also
frequently surrounds it and prevents
pain from the motion of the eyeball
against the ciuder and ultimately as
sists In its removal. The remedy may
seem novel to many persons, says the
ST. Louis Globe-Democrat, but there are
commercial travellers in this city who
never start on journey without a
pinch of faxseed somewhere in their
baggage where it can be easily reached
in case of an accidental cinder In the

FREE SILVER HAS FREE SWING

THE Committee on Coinage,
Weights and Measures, Of the Ma
tional House, is the most extreme
free silver committee that has ever
been known in that body. 1t is
composed of thirteen members and
has a majority of four who are open
and avoweEly, not merely in favor
of free silver coinage, or willing to
vote for it, but earnest advocates of
that dangerous proposed legislation.
The obvious purpose Of forming the
Coinage Committee, with predom-
nance Of free silver coinage mem
bers is 10 provide that free silver
shall haae free swing IN the lower
branch Of Congress. There can be
no other conclusion than this from
the facts already stated 1t is an in
,dicatioa, too, that the Democrats
who coCtrol the destmies of their
party conventions will put a plank
favorable to free silver coinage into
their national platform next year.
The finances of the country are to
be subjected to the proposed tinker,
ing by the Missouri silver crank
whose record has made him feared
by every conservative and sound fl,
nancier an the United States, and il
his party wins the election next year
there is danger of a deludge of silver
which will mean higher prices fol
every necessity of lie, but no higher
wages.

Gov. Buchanan, after great deal
of delay and uncertainty, has sent
Tennessee's standing army to Coal
Greek, where it will undertake to
defend the majesty of law While
everybody admits that the lease law is
the worst law ever passed by a legis-
lature, yet all lovers Of good govern
ment can see how necessary it is that
should be enforced as long as it
remains law. And if the Governor
haddone, two month ago, what he
has done within the past few days,
people would have, at least, given
him credit of having backbone and
trying to support the law that he
swore to support when he entered
upon the duties of his Office.

a SOUTHERN statesman expresses
it as hs opinion that public men
now, are equal in ability, If not in
reputation, of those in the past.
This is no doubt true. The average
eduation is higher in America now
than it has ever been and hero wor-
ship has declined with the general
advancement of the people. The
newspapers now keep the public
informed on all public questions, so
that the voters at home know as
much about the tariff and other leg
islation as docs the statesmen at
Washington. There is less differ
ence between the great man and his
followers to day, but this is not due
to a degeneration of the statesman.
