WARRINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent)

(rIOm OuF regular COfre6pondent)
WAsHIsoros, November 10. 1s93-
Panic-stricken is the only expresei n that
will correctly describe the condition Of
the administrator and the demot tic
Congressman at present in Washington.
John Allen said very epigrammatically
I'VE had umbrellas. Lu: no life -preserv-
ers; were prepared for considerable
shower. but not for cloudburst." The
democrats from Mr.. Cleveland down
know that the feeble explanation Of an
"otf year. is ridiculous when compared
with the terrible rebuke which the intel
ligent voters in what besn regarded as
pivotal states have just given to tie
democratic administration and Congress.
They feel and they cannot hide it that
the grand republican triumph is but the
shadow Of another triumph in "A. when
the people will protect themselves and
all they hold most dear by electing a re-
publican majority Of the House Of Re-
presentatives,and Of the grander triumph
Of SO, which will restore the government
in all its branches to the republican party,
the only party that believes in legislating
for the prosperity OF Americans first, last
and all the time.
Gov. McKinley's name is on the tongue
Of every jabilant republican you meet,
and they are all jubilnnt. Gov. Mckinley
has always been popular with repul.
licans in Congress and in Washington,
and predictions are heard on all sides
some even from democrats that the un.
prccedented majority the Ohio rcpub.
licans have given him will make him the
next President Of the United States, il he
lives and keeps his health.
Speculation is rife as to what effect the
great republican victories will have upon
the democratic tariff bill. Your CORES.
pondent does not pretend to enjoy the
confidence OF the democratic bosses who
are directing the construction of that
measure. but he knows that there is con-
stcrnation among the democratic mem
bcrs Of the House Ways and Means com.
mit,cc; that chairman Wilson has been
in almost constant consultation with Mr..
Cleveland since the elections. and that
prominent democrats who favor limited
protection are confident that the result
OF the elections will do what their
plcadings have hitherto failed 10 do curb
the free trade propcnsities OF Mr.. Clcve-
land. and prevent the new tariff bill be-
ing us hurtful to American wage-earners
as il was originally intended TO be. H.
deed. come Of them say that the bill
would have been reported before the I'D
journment OF Congress had not Mr.. Cle,e.
land been persuaded TO have it held back
until after the election. TO meet the very
contingency that now exists.

RAILROAD REFORM IN RUSSIA.

The Gar of Russia has recently issued
a decree which should commend him to
those people who believe in what they term
the naturalization of the railroads" He
has taken possession of the three trunk
lines of railway in the empire, to the end
that they may be run by the government
I'm future. The Car has not entirely con-
fiscated the roads, some of the disciples
of Bellamy would do in this country, but
he has done the next thing, which is to fix
the compensation Of the shareholders at a
figure much below their real value. AS it
is not prudent for the owners to protest.
and there are no tribunals to which an ap-
peal can be taken, they are discreetly silent.
The Cars officials have explained that this
step has been taken because Of the gross
mismanagement OF the roads. impairing
their efficiency. Special rates TO favored
shippers, giving them the control of a GER
tain trade is not the offense which has led
the Car to confscate the railroads. Such
injustices do not appeal to the man who is
the government and who seems not to take
an exciting interest in the welfare of the
governed. The real cause for the Cars
action is that the roads are not kept in a
state of efficiency and that the money which
should be spent making permanent road
beds and I'm purchasing abundant rolling
stock has been divided among officers and
directors This would probably not be
matter OF interest to the Car so long as
there should be peace; but some day war
may come, and then the government will
need the best of railways and equipment TO
transfer men and material to the battle
field The European governments which
are chiefly devoted to impoverishing their
subjects In order to be ready for war, have
reached a point in preparations where
weak railroad system can no more be per-
! mitted than Anticipated rifles. 1t is not
probable that the most meagre facilities
given the traffic of Russia will be improved
by the change to management by the gov
| eminent; yet with one-man control. under
| q system in which officials are executed or
banished upon suspicion of wrong doing. it
| is probable that higher degree OF eff
cheney in mana cement could be attained for
| a nationalized railroad than in the United
| States where all the positions, from highest
| 10 lowest, would be regarded as the spoils
| belonging to the victor in the latest cleo

paciry and experience would count in the
