The question of "cuts'' In the columns Of
the daily newspapers, IL not exactly burn
ing one, eXcites more animated comment
than many of more Importance. 1t has
been settled In favor Of their use now by
every considerable morning paper in Yew
York, and the report reaches us that an
"art plant" has been arranged for the most
conservative journal in that most conserv-
ative city, Philadelphia. In the calmer at
mosphere of weekly journalism the prob
lem has long since been solved by the adop-
tion Of the apparently simple principle
that illustrations" should illustrate.
There is no more reason why the reader
should not receive accurate information or
pleasing or satisfying impressions through
the fruits Of the engraver's art than there
is why he should not bo given, in legible
type, the printed matter that is suited to
his needs and tastes.
That the business of printing pictures,
whether once or seven times or thirty times
a month, may be conducted in manner to
make the judicious grieve. or even swear,
is something of which the general reader
does not need to be informed. He cannot
pass railroad station without having ii
forced on his weary and wounded mind.
But no general business practice is to be
adjudged by its abuses alone or condemned
on account Of them. The one thing that
the last half century of publishing in this
and in other countries has established very
clearly Is that good pictorial work justifies
itself wherever 1t can be achieved, and with
this solid fact to go upon the timid or over
sensitive or desperate CRITIC of bad pictorial
work may wait with patience for its disap
arance.-Harpers Weekly.

A FINANCIAL SUCCESS.
Director Schwab Says the Fair Cleared
Quarter of "A Million in May.


CHIcAeo, June 3.-Director Charles II.
Schwab, Of the Worlds fair, says that the
exposition has cleared quarter of a mill
ion dollars for the month of May. and as a
result Of general reduction of force to
begin next Monday a better result is con.
fidently anticipated for June. Mr. Schwab
took rosy view of the situation and
claimed that the financial success of the
fair is already assured He says the run.
ming expenses of the fair will be not $780,
900 week for the present, and this will be
cut down when the working forces are re-
duced, as has now been ordered by the Of
ficials. Mr.. Schwab says the receipts for
the month of May have averaged S24, ,00C
daily.
Treasurer Seeberger says the financial
statement for May is not compiled, and
does not know when it will be ready. He
gives as an excuse the extra work entailed
on his department aud the sickness OF
his cashier. When asked if the exposition
had made $685. as claimed by Director
: Schwab, the treasurer merely smiled and
said it was necessary to keep pretty good
balance on hand lie was afiixing his sig
nature to a bundle of checks at the time
and remarked that he was paying out
money as fast as it came In. He would not
say how much the exposition corporation
owed on contract account. 1t is a fact
however, that more than.enough to wipe
out any balance in the bank has been long
due the contractors, and certain high off
cials of the exposition have either been
waiting for the whole of their salaries OF
have been paid in part only, with the un
derstanding that when the money comes
in faster they would get all that was due
them.
conservative estimate by the commit
tee in charge of the arrangements for the
parade celebration of German day, on
June 10. places the number of German
American visitors at 100000, and the par

government Ohicials Urged to Send List
of Pensions to Grand Army Posts, That
the Veterans May Aid in Preventing
Fraud.
NEw York, june 3.-Tbe submission TO
the Lafayette Post, G. A. r., of series of
resolutions passed by Noah l.. Farnham
post, touching the subject of pensions, led
to the appointment on March II of COM
mittee of fifteen comrades to consider the
subject Of pensions.
When this committee met all the mem.
bers agreed that the post should take some
action, but that there should be no ex-
preston Of approval or disapproval OF
Farnham post. and that the post should
consider the subject on its merits and act
without reference to the action of other
posts. All the members of the committee
also agreed that the action Of the post
should be confined strictly to alleged frau.
dulent pensions, and should be reported to
the department commander in the first in.
stance, not made public without his
authority. On April 20, at final meeting
OF q subcommittee, appointed to prepare
resolutions, the following, which are now
for the first time made public, were
adopted:
Resolved, That tbs post deprecates and
resents wholesale charges against the G.
A. r., against pensioners and against
claimants for pensions, and against those
who are engaged in the prosecution or al
!owance of such claims as rejecting un-
justly upon many worthy, honorable and
patrotic men, and insists that every
charge should bepromptl and thoroughly
Investigated to the end that any un.
worthy person may be speedily exposed
and punished, and that the worshy may
be publicly exonerated and vindicated.
Resolved, That it is the opinion of this
post that the members of our order could
render useful and active assistance in ex-
posing frauds upon the pension list--if
such existed-if printed copies of the exist
ing list Tor so much thereof as would show
the pensioners name residence and sery-
ice, giving regiment in which the service is
alleged and basis Of pension, together with
a reference to the law under which the
pension Is granted), should be sent to the
assistant adjutant generals of the G. A.
r., furnishing each department a num-
Der Of such lists, bearing the names only
OF the pensioners residing in that depart
ment or state equal to the number of posts
In such departments, the lists to be dis
tributed one to each post in such depart
D Dment, with instructions to report immc-
diately upon ascertainment of the facts,
and every instance where, upon iuvestiga-
tion by the posts or members, fraudulent
cases may be found, such reports to be
forthwith transmitted by the said assist
ant adjutant general to the commissioner
of pensions.
The resolutions were submitted to De-
partment Commander Joseph p. Cleary,
who approved them and forwarded them
to Commander-in chief Weissert, who in
dorsed them.

SILVER LEGISLATION.
Probable Action at the Coming
Session Of Congress.
THE FATE OF THE SHERMAN LAW.

It Is Believed That There VIII be Conn
parativeIy Little Trouble to Pass n Bill
Repeating That Measure, Many Members
Having Changed Their Minds.
WASHINGTON, June 3.-The Evening Star
prints the following:
Information, coming from silver sources,
makes itn safe prediction that there will
be comparatively little trouble to pass a
bill through the house to repeal the Sher-
man silver law soon after congress meets.
How the thing will stand in the senate is
another story, but it will probably be found
that the finance committee, at the head of
which is Senator Voorhees,, which has
been regarded as strongly favoring silver,
will have majority for the peal of the
law.
at appears that number of members
Of the house who voted against any action
during the last congress have seen light
since and expect to vote tho other way
when they get at work again. The reason
given by some OF those who will drop from
the ranks of the radical silver men is that
in the light Of the present financial situa-
tion many of their people, without
yielding their convictions on the silver
question, are. willing that the Sherman
law should be repealed at once, leaving
the question Of future coinage of silver
open. How far this is the result of tho
judicious distribution or withholding of
patronage by Mr.. Cleveland may be left
for inference. But it Is certain that Mr..
Cleveland has not lost sight Of this issue
in dealing with statesmen who have been
making pilgrimages to the White House."

After viewing the islands In the East

and took long run out into Long Island
sound. The Dolphin returned to the city
along the north shore of the sound, and ar.
rived in the East river off Twentieth street

princess left the ship. Carriages were
waiting for the party, and the princess was
driven directly back to the Savoy.

Mayor Gilroy down to view the Brooklyn
bridge. She was driven across the bridge
and given an opportunity to see portion

would give an average professional income
of about 81, 100 to every lawyer; from which
it would appear that the law is still one Of
the best paying professions, if it were not
