LANES HEALTH,

Mr. Blaine is seriously and dangerously
ill., There can be no doubt OF that. The
information comes from sources that may
be relied upon. 1t Is said that he is
rapidly losing strength, and the end can
not be far distant. Yet the family con-
tinue TO give ont statements that he IL
improving, that bis trouble IL only tenn
porary, and that he will soon leave
Washington 'or a more favorable climaet
1t is alleged that these hopeful reports
are induced by the desire TO keep up the
invalids spirits by show of confidence,
AS he is sensitive on the subject Of his
health. But Mr.. Blaine can hardly be In
condition to read the newspapers himself,
and, II he Is, he must see how little con-
tidence is placed in tho stories given out
by his family.
False stories Of the ex-Secretary's con.
dition can do no good, are unnecessary
ano should bc discontinued. The public
has right to know the truth as TO his
health.

The City Clerk will be ct the ward roor
Nj onday night to register the voters.

The recommendation OF Chief Perry
should be acted upon by the City Council
and a new signal system adopted The
old system is out OF date and IL OF no
practical use. The city has now grown to
such proportions that new electric
system is an imperative necessity. With
modern patrol wagon and new system
the department would be In pretty good
shape.

case OF person claiming damages for be

OF negligence, and rejected his claim, and
the Supreme Court now confirms this, and

between horse cars and "trolleys."

IkE GRAND Jury.

The Grand Jury came In this morning
and reported a larger number OF indict
ments, hut among them was not one
against the Tax Assessors OF this city.
Every influence has been brought TO bear
In this case and the result is very apparent
There was but little question m TO the
guilt Of The Assessors, in fact they almost
admitted what they were charged with,
and yet no true bill is found. The
rumors that have come to the ears Of the
public as to what took place in the
jury room was enough to satisfy the or
dlnsry mind that the Attorney General
was not in favor n indicting the Assess
ors.
Perhaps this is al right, but IL looks at
least all wrong There may yet be time
to bring this matter before another Grand
Jury with another officer 10 advise II, II

WASHINGTON, Dec. l3.-The Supreme
Court OF the United States decided I'm fa-
vor Of Coils p. Huntington in his suit
against Henry Y. Attrili, to recover the
amount OF Judgment OF $4,000 Attrill
was stockholder and director In the
Rockawsy Beach Improvement Company.
Huntington advanced him 100000.
The company became insolvent and
Huntington recovered judgment because
OF the false representations on which the
money was advanced. Attrill afterward
acquired stock in the Equitable Gaslight
Company of Baltimore, and put 1t in
trust for his wife and daughters. An at
tempt to execute the judgment through
the Maryland courts failed, and the Mary
land court of appeals held that the judg-.
ment was in the nature OF penalty and
the courts of one state would not execute
the penal laws OF another state.
The Supreme Court, In an opinion by
Justice Gray, held that the judgment was
not OF a penal nature and that the Mary
land courts had not given full force and
effect to the judgment and DEGREES OF the
courts Of another state, as required by
the constitution. The case will be re-
manded to the Maryland courts with di-
-ections to execute the judgment.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13. - Commissioners
O'Brien, OF the navigation bureau, In a
special report regarding the shipping in
terests Of the United States, advocates the
organization OF a national naval reserve,
local In character, with fixed term oil
enlistment and recruited from ship
wrights, naval architects, pilots, marine
engineers and citizen seamen, from along
the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific coasts and
the great lakes, the entire organization to
be under the jurisdiction of the secretary
OF the navy.
In the commissioners opinion IL should
consist OF four divisions, one Tor the lakes
and one for each OF the other coasts, ana
he suggests that the government place al
the disposal of each division merchant
steamer so constructed as TO be reauily
available as a war cruiser TO be used as q
practice ship under the direction OF the
secretary OF the navy.
Referring to "Canadian Aggression
upon American Shipping and Commercial
Interests" the commissioner recommends
ssthat discriminating duties be laid upon

imported into the United States from
Canada,

discriminating duties, and the hostile
railroad legislation which now constitutes
successfully devised and effective scheme
for diverting American commerce from
American seaports and from American
transportation lines"
The commissioner believes that the ex-
ample set by Great Britain in her policy
OF granting subventions to ocean steam
ers OF large class engaged in the mer-
chant marine service, provided they are
SO constructed as to be readily available
as transports or armed cruisers in time o.
war, Ia worthy of our imitation.
He says that the enormous cost o'
maintaining cruisers like the Baltimore
said to be 800, 900 year, seems to dictate
Q naval policy mainly for defense consist
ing OF heavily srmored and heavily armed
battle ships for harbor and coast defens'
in connection with all the engineering
devices for defensive operations.
The report states that the Importance
rebuilding the American merchant ma
rine appeals to the patriotism and inter
ests OF every American citizen. II Is esti
mated that about 500, ,000, 900 year is nov

OF the Western Passenger Association, has
addressed a communication to the Boston

calling their attention to the fact that
they have not advanced their through
rates to points west OF Chicago in con-
formity with the advance made by the
western roads from Chicago and 81. Louis
TO the Missouri river.
As result their split tickets are dis
turbing the market here, and they are
urgently requested 10 discontinue the sale
OF such tickets Immediately. III this re-
quest IL not promptly complied with,
there Is no doubt that the western roads
will adopt more effective measures to pro-
tect their revenues, which means that
they will refuse TO honor the through
tickets OF the roads that are responsible
for the disturbance.

Gus disappearance from Louisville three
years ago of Mrs. Jacob Keating, wife OF a

year old daughter, has been cleared up.

There he found his wife living with an

permit it, and warned Keating to leave
the camp Immediately or they would hani
