FIRES IN COTTON CAKGoEs.

Fires in cotton cargoes have been ire quent and disastrous enough to stir up much inquiry concerning their nsrses. The charge has recently been reiterated that American cotton is not properly packed, and 1t is asserted that this is the reason why there are so many fires in ships carrying it. A committee of Eng fish underwriters, convened not long ago to consider the question of cotton fires, made this report: The committee consider that the insuficiency of the packing is the chief cause of the liability of cotton to catch fire. The packing of American cot ton is vastly inferior to that of Indian, Egyptian or Brazilian, which are entirely covered and properly bound; so that it is exceptional to find any of the latter e1- posed after landing. American cotton, from the fimsy nature of the packing, only partially covering the bales, and the insuficiency of the bands, comes away in considerable quantities; and the decks and holds of vessels loading and discharging are frequently covered with waste and fluff
 It is said that the Indian cotton arrives in England in the pink of condition. The bales are more tightly compressed than those from this country, and the cotton is completely covered and held in heavy wood packing and an abundance of iron bands. The advantage of extreme com pression, of course, is that it makes fires practically impossible, even if we accept the spontaneous combustion theory; so much, at least, the experience with Indian methods of packing seems to prove. It will be interesting to see what American cotton packers will have to say to the serious charge which has been made against them. The facts ought to be easily ascer- tainable.

Ts.E BIG FODRTRIAL.

1ef N hAeI FOC ft 1H L.
 Tonight at the meeting of the board of aldermen the Big Four matter will come up again. It is expected that the counsel for the accused will ask for time to con- slider the charges and prepare an answer to them. But it is a cheering fact that the case against the Big Four is we'll started, and that, even if there are delays, it will certainly be carried out. The Big Four will be forced to defend it's action if it can.
 During the last week the friends of the Big Four have tried to lessen the force of the attack upon it in three ways. They have vociferously snorted at the "good- ness" of those who have seen fit to protest against the summary and unwarranted re- moval of three skilled and faithful public servants. They have asserted that nothing illegal has been done, and they have at tempted to cast discredit upon the great petition of the people. Their efforts haven't altered the situation. The sneers at goodness" are pusrile and react on the sneerers. The claim that nothing illegal has been done remains to be tested. Good lawyers are of the opinion that it was il- legal, and a misuse of power, for the Big Four to remove the three officers in the way it did. The attempt to belittle the petition is futile quibblipg. What if a few errors are found in ita Nobody will honestly pretend to say that it is not, with all the errors eliminated, a most genuine and impressive evidence of public senti ment. Nothing like it has ever been seen in New Haven.
 There should be no lessening of public interest in this matter. The people should attend the hearings, carefully watch all the proceedings and see that their interests are at least as we'll cared for as those of the Big Four

 Two little islands furnish four-ffths of the cloves consumed by the world.
