EXPERIMENTAL STAGE.

The special Washington correspond
ent of Republican exchange mad
Vertently talks out of school. Under
date of Sept. he says:
''Pefore some of the innovations re =
Gently inangurated by the admlnistra-
ton have passed an experimental stage,
many persons connected with the de-
partments predict complete failure"
OF course they do. La ninety-nine
cases out of hundred it will be found
that these predicters are Republicans.
1t is chronic with the party to predict
failure of all efforts looking toward
reformation of Republican legislative
abuses in the past.
But the vital point wherein this Wash
ington correspondent ''gIves the snap
away" is in his unfortunate allusion to
''tie experimental stage" of Demo-
cratic legislation. This is an unex-
pected admission from a Republican.
Heretofore all Republican papers have
rung and are still ringing changes on
gigantic evils already consummated
through purely Democratic legislation.
What caused the panic? Democrats.
What has closed the mills and factories?
Free Trade. What broks so many
banks? UnsOund financial legislation
by a Democratic congress. What
brought the Tybeelan typhoon up from
the land of the tropics and strewed the
Atlantic coast with wrecks and dead
bodies? The Republican New York
Recorder attributes this disaster to the
administration of President CLEyE-
LAND. Such are the ridiculous queries
and answers banded back and forth,
like shuttlecocks, in the editorial col
umns of Republican newspapers.
Yet in the above abstract we have a
correspondent admitting that all Demo
cratic legislation is in its experimental
stage. Nothing has eventuated. The
head of the administration has affixed
his signature to no bill. The predic-
tiouS Of Republican organs are but
fathers to the thoughts. Republican
capital must be built, If only upon the
shaky foundation of predictions.
And with its own doubtful record be-
hind it. the Republican party needs po-
litical capital and needs it badly.

THE CHARGES FAIL.

The statement which ex-City Treas
urer REFS presented to the council COM
mittee last night, in reply TO the attacks
upon him by the present city treasurer,
was forcible, manly and conclusive.
Mr. MILLER did not muster up courage
to appear. aud the committee very
promptly and properly indefinitely post
poned the whole matter.
The city never had more faithful or
honest official than GEORGE REFS, and
the wild talk OF his successor has
harmed no one but its author, though it
has necessarily been annoying to Mr..
REFS. His standing as a citizen and
public officer has not. however, suf-
fered in the least by the attack; but. on
the contrary, it has made an opportunity
to present his faithful official record to
the public.
Mr.. MIIIER's administration will
show up differently.

THE TREASURY DEFICIT.

The federal government, III common
with our business men generally. Is
feeling the stress OF the hard times. 1t
is announced from Washington that
there is not money enough in the treas
ury, nor is there sufficient amount
forthcoming from the ordinary sources
of revenue, to meet the current eX-
penses; and deficiency, estimated by
some as high as fifty millions, is eX-
peeted when the books come to be bal
anced at the close Of the fiscal year.
The decrease i'll the receipts is due in a
large measure to the duilnesS of trade,
which has prevented not only the i'm
portation of dutiable goods, but the pro-
duction of those of home manufacture
that are subject to excise charges.
Few will be surprised at this an
nOuncement. 1t has been expected all
along. Congress at its last two sessions
was extremely lavish in appropriating
money for every branch of the service.
The pension appropriation was in
creased many millions. This was per-
haps unavoidable. for the number of
old soldiers who are reaching the de-
peiluSit age 10 iHCtcaStus yodt ny year.
Then the expenditures for creating our
new navy have been enormous. The
desire to be fully equipped on the high
seas and abl0 to defend our rights in
every part of the world is eommendable.
and criticisms OF congress on that core
will be tempered with leniency. Yet
there has been too great haste in this
direction. The cost of the war vessels
recently built might have been distrib
uted over number OF years without
impairing in any way the service. The
greatest eKtravaganca has been in the
prosecution of internal Improvements.
Millions have been expended in the

WISCONSIN CENTRAL.
Judge Jenkins Discusses its Re-

Judge Jenkins Discusses it's Re-
lation to the Northern Pacific.
MILWAUKEE, Sept. 1.-The question
as to whether the Wisconsin Central
will remain part of the Northern
Pacific system will not be decided until
Sept. Is. From the tenor of JudgeJenkins'
remarks today before Issuing decision
in the case, the matter it is thought will
be left to the receivers of the North
ern Pacific. Judge jenkins prefaced
his order by a careful review of the
point at issue. 1t was the plan of the
court to protect the Central road, and
he would attend to it that the company
should eventually receive what might
be its just due, though the receivers
elected to forfeit or continue the lease.
The court then ordered:
First-That the Wisconsin Central
company aud the Wisconsin Central
Railroad company be upon their petition
made defendants to all suits, and that
they may by answers assert their rights
at any and all times.
Second-That the receivers examine
into the conditions aud relations of the
Central to the Northern Pacific, and
report by Sept. 10 whether, in their
Judgment, the ieaSe-should be continued
or forfeited.
Third-That until further orders the
receivers set aside 371a per cent of the
gross earning of the road south of Nee
nah and north of Altenheim, and 35 Der
cent of the gross earnings of the road
north and west of Neenah. and to report
to the court the amount Oh hand Sept.
Is.
Fourth-That Alfred H. Carey be ap-
pointed special master to investigate
the claims of the Central and Northern
Pacific, and that the Central and the
Northern Pacific company file a verified
itemiZed statement to cover such
claims. The petition of the receivers
to be allowed to pay interest and other
charges OH the lease of the Ceur d.
Alene Railway and Navigation CON-
pany was granted.
In the matter of the petition of the
receivers of the Northern Pacific to be
allowed to issue S5.000,0O0 in receivers
certificates, Judge Jenkins ordered the

are being distributed among the people,

early this morning i'll the artillery bar

massacre of the prisoners, but it is now
said that it was simply an execution of
twelve political prisoners, one of them
a priest who has been active IN political
work. The president has called OH the

difficult to find that much cash in the
