The running time for local trains from South

There still remain five spans OF track to he
laid ut the southern end OF the new middle

made at Fourteenth. Fifty-ninth. 125th. and

at Elswick several war vessels now under

Argentine Government or any other Is In

Lessons rro,. ii. Ch,l,.. Matter.

To THE EDITOR OF THE 6UN-Sir: Two
or three object lessons have been given the
American people through tho medium Of the
Chilan affair. which not only are most valuable
and are destined to be OF great political i'm
portance. but are worth all they cost. since In
all probability oceans Of printers ink could not
30 well have taught us.
]. We have seen what inefiabls "gush and
gun" this Sunday-school talk Of international
arbitration 10. and how weak such dlshwater
politics Is In the face Of great national i'm.
pulses more honorable to self-respecting peo-
pies than the commercial instinct which asks
only for an opportunity to trade and dicker.
2. It has been shown US all how irrepres sible
the conflict is. and must always be. between
the commercial interests OF England and the
United States and how silly and ridiculous all
the palaver Is about "our American cousins {"
and our kin across the sea-" The British
newspapers have during this controversy very
frankly and accurately expressed the real SEN
timents OF Englishmen toward America and
Americans.
3. Lastly and leastly. We have been shown
what pitiful and mean thing the politics Of
Mugwumpian eunuchs 10. and how utterly In.
capable OF appreciating patriotic aspiration
such denationalized pariahs are.
The moral which would draw from these
three lessons is that the nation. without dis
tinction Of party. will approve OF generous
appropriations for an enlargement OF our ris-
ing navy and for coast defences; that It is
high time the President should notify Eng
land OF our desire to abrogate the provisions Of
the treaty OF 1917. which invites aggression on
our northern frontier from our eternal enemy
and that the Mugwump. as u factor in Ameri-
can politics. has forever passed away and will
take his place in American history with the
