THE NICARAGUA CANAL.

Public interest in the Nicaragua Canal will
be powerfully stimulated by the convention
now in session in st. Louis. Ex-senator Mil
Ter has acted wisely in visiting the great cities
of the country during the last two years and
addressing commercial bodies on this subject.
As the direct result of his energy and of the
intelligent way in which he has presented this
great project, representatives of the business
interests of twenty five States have assembled
to take formal action upon it and possibly to
make recommendations TO Congress. The pro-
cecdngs of this powerful body will undOubted-
" exert great influence in convincing investors
of the practicabiity Of the scheme for an inter
oceanic waterway, and also Ohio direct ad-
vantages to be derived by Americans Grop the
construction Of the work.
While il is not our purpose TO offer any dis
couragng comments upon this great enter
prise which is wholly in line with the order
of modern progress and commercial develop
ment, we cannot forbear qualifying some of
the conclusions reached by the speakers at this
convention. They take il for granted that
the opening of this waterway will involve of
necessity vast expansion OF American trade
with Australia, China, Japan and the west
coasts of South and Central America. 1t would
be more prudent to assert that the Nicaragua
Canal when completed will open magnificent
opportunity for American merchants, manu-
factuIers and traders. The construction of the
Panama Railway was undertaken under the
assumption that American trade would be
largely developed by the transit facilities but
as matter of fact European merchants, manu-
facturers and shippers have made larger use
of it than their American competitors. In the
same way the Nicaragua Canal will be short
cut for European as well as American steamers
and freight. In order to derive full advantage
from this great work Americans must do what
they are not now doing-they must compete in
earnest with Europeans for the commerce of
the world. They must have commercial ma
rine under their own flag. They must have
wholesale houses in foreign ports. They must
have banking facilities based on New-Yor ex-
change. They must compete with Europe with
the same intelligence, thoroughness and en-

There seems to have been oversight rather

Dixon was granted yesterday, but in pursuance
of the scheme of persecution Justice Grady in
sisted that the accused clergyman should fur

do this with little trouble, though neither Koch
nor Grady can think for moment that the
Rev. Mr. Dixon means to take himself out OF
the jurisdiction. The bail requirement was
merely meant to annoy. Mr. Dixon will have
public sympathy entirely on his side and can
afford to fight the case as long as Koch is'will-

Economist Holman received a small setback
in the House yesterday, one of his amendments
to the Postal bill being rejected by substan-
tial majority The amendment called for an
arbitrary reduction in the amount to be paid
to railways. for carrying the mails. Apparent
" there was not the slightest thought in the
minds of its supporters as to whether or not
the postal service would be impaired by its
adoption. Some of the Democrats. though,
were sensible enough not to follow the leader
blndly. They made strong speeches against
the short sighted amendment, and succeeded
in having it cast out by vote OF 124 to 81.
Interesting developments are expected when
the midwinter delegates get together at the
Hoffman House next Monday night. Nobody
seems to know the object of the meeting-at
any rate, nobody who will tell. The fayorite

A Novel idea.

The expense of a funeral in a large
city has grown 70 such proportions that
the average man, according to a face
tious contemporary, commits more exc
fravagance in the act of dying than he
ever did during life. 1t has been sug-
gested that much less costly form of
gravestone than that usually erected
would meet all the requirements Of af-
fectionate remembrance and respect,
and the suggestion has been carried
into effect in the patenting of "a grave
marker" This is simply a memorial
leaf. It consists of two outer plates
bent so as TO form a holder for leaves
OF tablets, adapted TO be suspended
from a frame to receive and retain OBJ
jects desired TO be kept as mementoes
of the deceased. The tablets beneath
the outer plates can be designed in
any desired form, and as they have
sides of mica OF transparent material to
protect the tokens, any object, such as
photographs, sketches, etc, can be in.
serted. For instance, sketch of the
life of the departed or lock of haiI
can be placed in the receptacle, where
It is securely protected from the wealth
er, and, as It is covered with mica,
win last for many years without bleach
ing or decaying.
