PROGRESS OF SOCIALISM IN GERMANY.
Berlin. oct. l9-The "vorwaerts" the organ of
the Social Democrats. to-day publishes the report
which will be submitted 10 the annual Socialist
Congress to be held in Cologne next week Much
of the report is devoted to the recent elections for
members of the Rechstag. in which the Socialists
made heavy gains The report admits, however,
that IL will be impossible to maintain the rapid
progress of Socialism shown at the polls In the
late elections since the forces of resistance must
Increase The Socialist party now distances by
more than j00GD votes The polling strength Of any
other party. Returns quoted to show the firm
foothoid the party has established in many agri-
cultural and ultra conservative districts. The re,
port contends that owing to the enthusiasm and
self-abnegation of the adherents of Socialism. the
party does not spend in elections quarter as much
money is expended by any Of the other parties.
1t is stated that the Executive Committee of the
party finds the utmost iifiiculty in supplying the
demands throughout the Empire for the founda-
tion OF new branches and the extension OF existing
branches. and for public speakers and literature.
The report closes with the usual list OF con-
vctlons for political offences during the year. The
sentences imposed on persons thus convicted ag:
gregate over eighty-six years imprisonment and
the fines amount to 1887 marks. 1t is noteworthy.

Petition to Court A dispatch from
Washington, dated the 18th instant, says
"The petition of Edward w. BingGeld, of
Montgomery county, Md, filed to-day in the
suit OF Bruehl VS.. Bruehl, sets out the mis-
fortune of Pauline Bruehl, ten years old,
and Adolph, her nine -year-od brother, who
were taken from his house in December last,
although he was anxious to give them a
home, and committed to the German Orphan
Asylum because their parents were unable
to agree. He says that Pauline and Adolph
were born within mile of his farm and
were brought up with his own five children
and from May until December last resided
in the house with them, making happy
family, but that shortly before Christmas
they were taken from their happy associa-
tons in his home and carried to the German
orphan Asylum, and that they have been
and are very anxious to return to his home.
He says he owns the farm on which he lives
in Montgomery county, Md, is able and de-
sirous to take the two children and care for
them in his family as if they were his own,
and that every member of his household is
attached to said children and is agreed in
wishing them to again become inmates of
the family. He therefore asks that the chill
dreu be placed in his custody at his home

Tenleyrown Railroad.-Tbe condition

of the Georgetown and TenleYtown Rail-
road as shown by the report that is being
prepared for the benefit of the stockholders,
has greatly improved under the few months
presidency Of Mr.. j. Hite Miller, and by the
end of the next fiscal year it is believed that
fair dividend will be paid. During the
year 1891 there were 79S, 637 passengers car
ried, while in 1892 there were 953,041, an
increase of 154, 404. In November, 1891, the
regular expenditures exceeded the receipts
by $30865 while in the corresponding
month of the year just closed and third
month of Mr.. Miller's presidency there was
clear profit of $37S.10. In the first case
there were five cars running and in the
more favorable there was but freight car
in addition, and this was run but half the
time. In December, 1891, though there were
1904 passengers carried, the receipts fell
short of the outlay $220.72, while though
fewer passengers were carried in the cor.
responding year of 1892 only $219.19 were
short. Many important improvements have
been made in the management of this road
since last October. Not only do the cars
now run on schedule time, but they are kept
in fine order Mr.. Miller states that If en-
terprse and care will do it, the Georgetown
and Tenleytown line shall take its place
among the best managed of the city Wash.
