Rapid Transit at Last.

The Consolidated Traction Com
pany promises to have a full line of
cars running to Greenville tomor-
row. Some of the new cars arrived
from Philadelphia last night and
We're on exhibition for the public de-
lectation at Grand street and Pacific
avenue this morning. The double
track is to be finished clean through
to Bergen Point, we are assured, and
there will be regular continuous SER
vice from end to end of the line.
"For this relief much thanks" We
do not blame the company. Great
changes, such as have been made in
these lines, cannot be carried out
without trouble and inconvenience.
The company has worked with mar
velous rapidity. and it certainly has
constructed splendid lines. The
tracks and their foundations are as
fine as any street car lines in the
world, and the poles and wires as
little OF a Disagreement as it is in the
nature of things for them to be.
But, even while acquitting the
company of blame, it is impossible to
ignore the inconvenience that the
travelling public has endured. The
delays and waits have rendered tran
sit slower and more uncertain than it
was in the worst days of the old horse
cars, and the crowding of the cars has
been more outrageous than it ever
was before. There has been no hour
of the day or night for weeks past
when the cars moving both ways
were not crowded to the doors with
standing and complaining men and
women. In the last week, there has
been much bitterness expressed. The
people are tired of being herded on
the a r worse than cattle, and they
have been wondering how long such
a state of things was going to last.
We hope that the assurances of a
better service from tomorrow on will
be realized.

COMMITTEE REVISION
This Task Has Been PPacti-
cally Finished for the
Caucus.
No Violent Fractures OF the
Traditions Of the
Senate.
Northwestern Men Given a
Share Of the Good
= Places.
Condition Of the Treasury
Shows a Continued I'M
prOvement.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE com
mittee of the Democratic caucus, which
has for the past week been dealing with
the troubles of the problem OF revising
the committees of the senate, and as
signing chairmanships to the proper
members, has practically finished its
work. Mr.. German thinks that the
party caucus cannot be held earlier
than Tuesday, and it is not improbable
that on thai morning the committee
Will make its final report. The
committee declines to give out any in
formation relative to the results OF Its
numerous conferences, but it is known
that there has been no violent fractures
of the tradition of the senate by which
the ranking minority senator becomes
chairman. Many changes have, how
ever, been made necessary, as one OF
the members OF the committee said,
by reason of the entrance into the
senate of the new Democratic
members from the Northwest states.
A glance at the committee list or the
las: senate shows how difficult it has
been to bring about result satisfactory
to all. There are forty standing com
mittees of the senate, and out OF this
number the ranking Democrat entitled
to the Craftsmanship in thirty-one OF
these committees comes from Southern
states. and but
Nine From tIie North.
In the select committees the same
preponderance from the South IS seen.
there being eight from that section and
but one from the North.
The selection of Democratic senators
from Wisconsin. New I DIRK, North Da-
kOta. Wyoming and California has COM
PEELED the committee to make shifting
of memberships, and. i'll a number Of
cases, of chairmanshipS, so as to give
those new members ami other men from
the North their fair share of the good
places. Of course, in this large
list of Southern ranking members the
name of the same senator appears
in many cases of various committees,
the members from that part OF the cOun-
try having served in the senate many
years. Despite all this, however, 1t is
understood that there has been very lit
tie variation from the uSageS of the
senate in making the appointment or
chairmen TO the important committees
OF the senate, although the general
makeup of the committees appears
ITO have very materially changed.
The committee will hold another meet
ing Monday and 20 over the revised
list and make such corrections as may
benecessary. If any nominations are
sent to the senate Monday they will be
received and laid over until the commit
tees have been fully reorganlzed, and
this will not, the caucds committee
thinks, be earlier than the middle OF the
. week.

FINANCIAL. SITUATION.
1t Continues to Improve From
Day to Day.

1t Continues to Im3rOve From
Day to Day.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE treas
ury situation continues to improve from
day. to day, and from this time OH the
treasury department will be in posi-
ton to take the more advantageous
offers of gold only. Today offers of
SiOO, O0O in gold were received from
Pittsburg and 100000 from Peoria.
The demand from Chicago for small
notes continues, and this morning
when some bankers in Ohio had offered
gold for notes, and some delay took
place in the transfer, the delivery was
deferred for few days and the small
notes sent to Chicago. The numerous
offers of gold from out-of- theway
places caused Secretary Carlisle this
morning to notify all interested parties,
through the Associated Press, that
.'gold coin can be received only at the
subtreaSury offices in exchange for
notes" In other words, the government
will not pay the expense of sending
money by express to individuals.
The sub-treasury cities are New York,
Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Gin
cinnati, Chicago. st. Louis, New
OIItdIlo anu Onli l. iHhSioNC.
Nebeker received a telegram from AS
sistant Treasurer Roberts, at New
York, stating that no gold was ex-
ported today from New York and the
probability was that none would be
taken out next week. The ten days
statement issued today by the treas
urer shows the free gold balance to lie
s.. 800, 600 Acceptances Of gold have
been, but which do not yet appear III
the account which brings this balance
up to more than S4,250.000.
CHICAGO. March 11.-Bankers OF this
city are expressing their confidence i'll
the ability of the government to main
tain a gold standard in manner which
will tend to take the edge off the gold
scare. Secretary Carlisle has been ad-
vised of offers from banks here OF
100000 in gold for treasury notes.
There is no attempt OH the part of the
banks making these offers to achieve
any peculiar distinction on the score OF
excessive patriotism. They make the
simple statement that the supply OF
treasury notes of small denominations
| in Chicago is below the demond.
HELENA, Mont, March 11.-Presl,,
! dent Knight. of the Helena associated
| banks, today rendered 100000 in gold
| coin to the secretary of the treasury IN
| exchange for legal tender.

COMMISSION FOR HAWAII.
Desire by the President to Have
Thorough Investigation.

Desire by the President to Have
Thorough Investigation.
WASHINGTON, March 11.-Regarding
Hawaii, the president, it Is reported, to-
day deprecated overhaste and said he
would probably send a commission
there. If is then found that an
pexation Is desired or desirable,
the treaty could be renewed. If
other relations were preferable,
they would recommend to congress.
The question was fully discussed. it is
said, at the cabinet meeting yesterday.
The commission is to have power to
summon witnesses and institute a
thorough investigation into the financial
indebtedness of the kingdom, its laws
and the habits of the people. The time
necessary for this work, it is said, will
be two or three months.
NEW YORK, March lin lengthy
dispatch regarding the Hawaiian treaty.
the Washington correspondent OF
morning paper says: "A gentleman
closely connected with the administra-
ton is authority for the statement that
the Hawaiian matter will be taken up
Immediately by Judge Gresham, and
that message transmitting treaty OF
some kind will be sent to the senate
during the present special session.
This gentleman. who is in position to
know, predicted further that the treaty
would be on annexation lines, though
radically different in its terms from the
harrison treaty. Features will be
added. he states, which will leave no
possible chance for the sugar syndi-
Gates to reap any benefits, ana which
will relieve the United States from any
