The Cook ARCHIPELAGO Trade.

The British Resident at Rara-
tonga recently made report on
the trade and resources of the Cook
Archipelago. He states: 1.-THE
islands are seven in number, ex-
tending at irregular distances over
an ocean area Of some $50 square
miles. They are on the verge Of
the tropics, and the climate is
pleasant and healthy. Though
small, the islands are extremely
fertile. Their chief value consists,
however, in their position at the
gateway of the extensive and beau
tiful archipelagoes studding the
Eastern Pacific south of the equa-
tor. With the exception of the
Cook Islands, these archipelagoes,
the Austral Islands, the Society
Islands, the Paumotos and the
Marquesas are all French posses
sions. They extend over an area
about 1000 miles long and 1000
miles broad, and are inhabited by
the same race (the Maori) as the
people of the Cook Islands. The
total native population is not less
than 10000, and the islands are
capable of supporting many times
that number. California, via Ia
hiti, is likely to be the chief COM
>petitor with New Zealand for the
trade of the East Pacific. The
connection of San Francisco with
Tahiti is cheap and regular, being
maintained by three smart sailing
vessels of 500 tons and upwards.
They are subsidized by the Govern
ment of Tahiti as mail packets,
and receive 928O0 a year in all for
a monthly service. The voyage
has been done in twenty-three
days, but generally takes thirty
and upwards. Between Raratonga
and Tahiti steam connection is
made by the Richmond steamer.
The approximate distance from
Auckland to Tahiti is 220O miles,
Wellington 2450 miles, Lyttleton
27O0 miles, Dunedin 1900 miles,
Sydney $500 miles. The annual
export from the Cook Islands is in
value E48, 236 over 100000 of this
trade being with New Zealand, the
remainder with California through
Iahltl.-Australian paper.

Saloons In Louisiana.

A novel experiment is being
tried by the four big concerns of
the American Sugar Refinery Com
pany in New Orleans. The four
squares occupied by the buildings
are literally hemmed in by bar
rooms, which thrive on the patron
age of the army of refinery en-
ployees, and the interference with
business has become serious. The
management, after studying the
situation, determined to establish
a company saloon at a central
point near the refineries, and has
just begun operations. Each en-
ployee is allowed so many ounces
of beer day, and is given oppor-
tunity to purchase liquors at rea-
sonable price. 1t is hoped by this
means to entirely withdraw the
patronage from the outside bar
rooms and to drive them out of
existence.-[Ex.

Work ON the Canals.

A dispatch from Paris dated
August Oath says: A local news
paper says the liquidator of the
Panama Canal Company has con-
cluded an agreement with Hielard,
vice-president of the Paris Cham
Der of Commerce, providing for the
formation of another company with
a capital of $3O,000,000 to resume
work on the Panama Canal. Work
will be resumed Immediately in
order to prevent the lapsing of the
concession granted to the old COM
pany by the Government of Col
ombia. Operations will be con-
centrated at two points, Culebra
and Rio Chagres. When nearly
the whole capital has been en-
ployed, forty-fve of the fifty kilo.
meters of the canal will be opened.
The agreement will be approved
by the Tribunal of Commerce. The
California League of Progress has
adopted a memorial urging the
completion of the Nicaragua Canal.

RoUVIER DEFIANT.

He has Resigned and IL Ready to 70 Be
fore any Court TO Answer any Charges
Against BIN.
PARIS. December 13.-In the Cham
Der Of Deputies to-day M. Ronyier con-
firmed the statement made by M. Gle
menceau that he and Baron de Reinach
visited M. Clemenceau on the evening
of the Baron's death. In his statement
NJ. Clemenceau said that NJ. Rouvier
had explained to him II the lobby OF
the Chamber Of Deputies that Baron de
Reinach was being driven mad by the
campaign organized by the papers
against him; that 1t was Tor
him a question OF life or death
and that the three visited
M. Herr TO induce him to use his inhu-
ence to stop the attacks that were be-
ing made upon Baron DeReinach. M.
Herr informed them that it was not In
his power to stop these attacks and his
visitors left. M. Rouvier, in acknowl-
edging that the statement OF M. Gle
menceau was true, said that he had
done nothing to reproach himself for
and that his conscience was easy.
Gdul bhO 4Ol PiSo
ident of the suppressed Patriotic
League, made violent attack upon M.
RouVier, declaring that he ought to be
compelled to appear before the High
Court to answer charges made against
him in connection with his conduct
while holding ministerial position.
NJ. Rouver responded TO M. De-
Roulede, saying that he was ready to
answer in any court for any charge
that had been or might be made against
him, and that he would only repeat
what he had said. M. Rouvier added
that he had visited Baron Reinach
solely from motives Of humanity. He
declared that section OF the press was
taking advantage Of the Panama affair
to throw slurs upon all the Republicans
who are in power. He would resume
mis- place as q simple deputy and could
hold his head high with sense
that his honor had not been sullied.
The resignation of M. Rouvier will
probably result in an extension or OFF,
cial life to the Robot cabinet.
Shortly after M. Rouvier's visit to
President Carnot it was officially an
neunced that the Finance Ministers
resignation had been accepted, and that
M. Tirard, ex-Minister Of Finance and
at present representing France at the
Brussels Monetary Conference, had
been appointed to succeed him.

the Senate they must gain five which,
with Vice-President STEvENsoN's de-
Gliding vote, would give them control,
with every member present and un-
paired.
To have a clear majority Of two the
Democrats must gain six, which is what
CLARKsoN and his pals are trying TO
prevent by the lavish use OF money,
partisan judges and Southern returning
board methods. In Wyoming these
brazen political freebooters are attempt
ing to control on the theory that one is
a majority Of three, two Democrats
whose election has been duly certified
to having been arbitrarily shut out Of
the Legislature, without any reason at
all. Such shallow knavery, however,
when the election of United States
Senator and the control of the federal
government turns on the result, will
not be tolerated. The country is in no
humor to stand it. CARTER is trying to
get partisan judge to legalize still
greater outrage in Montana, while in
Kansas and Nebraska similar rascality
is being attempted.
But the Democratic party does not
propose to be robbed of anything it has
fairly won.
1t has certain gain OF Senator In
New York and OF another in Wisconsin.
The news is that the Democrats are
sure to gain Senator in California by
the aid Of Populist votes, aad that they
have clear majority in the Montana
Legislature. This is enough to make
tie between the Democrats and Repub.
licans in the Senate, with the two ALI
ance men holding the balance OF power.
The scheme to steal the Legislature
of Wyoming is too openly fraudulent to
succeed. The Democrats may count
upon winning another Senator there,
thus making half the Senate Demo-
cratic, with Mr.. STEvENsoN's casting
vote to control in case of a tie, On
nearly all vital questions the two Alli-
ance men will vote with the Democrats,
so that anti-Republican control OF the
Senate is fairly we'll assured. Let the
Democrats and Populists of Kansas and
Nebraska stand by their guns and it
will be fully assured.

STRIKE AT THE ROOT OF THE EVIL.
The debate in Council, last evening,
upon the communication from the Wo-
mans Union Benevolent Society, was
both interesting and timely, in that 1t
calls attention indirectly to growing
evil in this city. The gentleman who
stated that Wheeling was worse in this
respect than other cities CT the same
population was probably in error, but
the conditions obtaining here are
none the less deplorable, and
call for a remedy OF some
sort. The measure proposed
by the society named was looked upon
by several OF the members as unconsti-
tutional-and perhaps it is. II enacted
it might be Of some practical benefit,
but still it does not strike at the root OF
the evil. Young girls and women do
not appear upon the streets for i'm
proper purposes until they have taken
a succession OF downward steps else
where, and their start in career Of
shame and crime is not so very mysteri-
Gus. If the gentlemen in Council will
make a little quiet investigation
they will speedily ascertain that
potent cause of depravity in the youths
OF both sexes is the low grade public
balls so frequent during the winter
months, and certain class Of excur-
sions and out-of-town dances during
the summer. At such gatherings young
girls soon take to beer, and this and
the company of certain class Of young
men speedily produces an effect as in
evitable as it is deplorable, and street
walking is the logical result. A city
ordinance requires that public balls
shall be licensed, and Council recently
ordered this law enforced. The sooner
it is done, and drink restricted as an
element Of such BALLS, the better it will
be.

Chairman Tom CARTER and ex-Heads-

who are now making desperate efforts
to steal outright the Legislatures Of four
or FIVE Northwestern States, have en-
gagged not only In an immoral scheme,
but in very bad politics. The chance OF
success is not great enough to compen-
safe for the added SCOT and smut that
will further begrim the already black
political character Of the party Of force
and fraud in elections.
The Senate is now composed Of 80
Democrats, Farmers Alliance and AZ
Republicans. To tie the Republicans
the Democrats must gain four Senators
from them, leaving the balance Of
power with the Farmers Alliance mem
bers, who are expected to vote with the
Democrats on all vital questions. But
such situation would be unfortunate,
since neither of the great parties would
be responsible for legislation.

Every effort on the part Of the State
officials to get the election returns from
Marshall county has thus far failed.
The Governor has urged the election Of
ficials and clerk of Marshall county, by
letter and by wire, oyer and over again,
to send in the returns. He has in
structed them as to their duty in re-
gard to this matter. referred them to
the law which requires them to for
ward election returns, and has ex-
haasted his powers of persuasion; but
the Marshall county officials remain
stubborn, and appear to be determined
not to obey the law. 1t may be neces-
sary to obtain writ Of mandamus
from the court to compel them to per-
form their duty. Marshall is Repub-
lican county and this is fair sample of
Republican cussedness.

A MOUNTAIN OF A MOLEHILL.

The fuss that has been raised over the
alleged "snu0" of Speaker CRISP at the
Reform Club dinner in New York is ut
terly causeless and very nOnsensical.
Mr.. CRISP was not snubbed. He was
invited Us a guest only, and not to de-
liver an ADDRESS. HIS name was not on
the programme. and the mere fact that
ne held the Office OF Speaker Of the
House of Representatives did not entitle
him TO the floor. The Speaker is not
supposed TO deliver an address at every
banquet to which he is invited.
Moreover, there were special reasons
why Mr.. CRISP was not invited as a
speaker. 1t was peculiarly tariff re-
form meeting and on this subject Mr..
CRIsP's views hardly meet the full sp-
Droval Of the New York Club. This is
not discreditable to either Mr.. CRISP or
the Tariff Reform Club and the fact
that Mr.. CRISP was invited by the club
shows conc usively that no snub was in
tended in the failure to invite
him TO speak. Others were pres
ent who are as prominent in
the nation as Mr.. CRISP, who were not
invited to speak. The only peg upon
which the alleged ''snub" can possibly
be hung is the fact OF Mr.. CRIsP's OFF,
cial prominence. and that, we repeat,
by no means entitled him to the floor.
The Speaker, himself, says he was not
on the programme to deliver an address,
though he had one prepared in case heS
should be called upon. He does not ARf
slider himself snubbed or in any u
aggrieved, as his hasty friends prete
to believe. hs

Though still very weak and constantly

continues TO improve slowly but steadl-
", aud all who surround him feel as
sured of his complete recovery. The
Senator received his first Wis
itor to-day in the person OF
Senator German. Mr.. German recent
ly returned from New York where he
had gone on business connected with
the Senatorial contests In the Western
States. Mr.. German is Chairman Of the
Democratic Senatorial Committee, and
he spent quite little while with Mr..
Kenna and left very much gratided at
the condition in which he found his
sick friend. The conversation Of the
two gentlemen covered brief statement
by Senator German Of the situation
with reference to the Senate in the next

fairs with regard to the new order Of
things brought about by the late cleo
ton and a general survey Of affairs in

ment as was calculated to poA Mr..
Kenna with reference to what has

Mr.. Kenna suggested to Mr.. German
