DIsARMING EUROPE.

Pope an Active Advocate OF Reduc-

NEW YORK, May 9.-The Herald's
Paris cable says: From authentic in
formation it would appear that the
pope is preparing an encyclical to the
European governments setting forth the
inevitable CRISIS to which the crushing
military changes condemn them. He
will cali the attention Of the govern
ments to the necessity of introducing
the idea Of pacification into their gen
eral policy as well as the appeasment of
the anger Of the working classes conse-
quent upon their misery.
His holiness will ask for a resolution
on the question of disarmament, prob
ably by an encyclical. which may be
the result of an agreement come to in
his enterview with the emperor of Ger
many.
The governments of Austria, Italy.
Spain, Belgium and Russia are said to
be already informed of the agreement
referred to above and are willing to ac-
cept it. Russia has made certain reser-
vations, but, it intends, it is believed, to
adhere to the general decision, in which h
case she would be charged with the mis-
sion OF bringing pressure upon France
to induce her to~ join the other nations.

THE ARMY BILL.
Its Defeat Said to Menace the German
Emnire.

BERLIN, May y.--The North German
Gazette express the belief that the COM
ing elections viii repair the attack on
the prestige Of Germany made by the
vote In the reichstag against the army
bill. The people will surely recognize
that the completion OF the defenses of
the country is necessary to its con-
tinuad existence.
The National Zeitung says that the
reichstag just dissolved was the worst
parliament since the foundation of the
empire, and should the electors give in
to the triumvirate composed Of Bebel,
Richter and Liber. the ruin OF Germany
would be effected, peace Inenaced and
the achievements Of the years OF 1866
and 1870 would be destroyed.

GENERAL ITEMS.
The Duty on Eclyetccn,

One of the greatest anomalies to be
found IN the present tariff is the duty
now imposed upon cotton velvets,
commonly known as velveteenS.
These goods are essentially Il poor
mans article. They are not worn at
all by the rich, who can afford to buy
the silk velvet, of which velveteen is
on imitation. Moreover, velveteen is
practically not made III this country.
AS the letter of our correspondent on
page % sets forth, the effort has been
made to produce these goods IN the
United States for the pas: ten years or
more, but it has invariably proved II
failure, and the quantity now made
here is so small that it is not worth
taking into consideration. Another
very important error in the present
tariff is that double wrong is done to
to the poor man by the fact that the
lowest grades of velveteen are taxed
very much more highly than are the
higher grades. The duty on all kinds
of velveteens is high enough in all
conscience, since a cotton velvet which
costs in England 2Sc. per yard costs
here 44c., the duty being over so per-
cent. On the lower grades, however,
such as cost Sc. per yard in England,
the duty under the present schedule
amounts to fully 100 per- cent. Even
with these enormous duties the inn
porter is able in many eases to under
sell the small amount of goods manu-
featured in this country. Animporter.
who has also sold velveteens for
account of a domestic manufacturer,

3. IL.

Cumberland and Frostburg contested
the field Tuesday. In the first inning
the umpire, watching sky-scraper,
did not notice that the runner did not
touch first base, and, tax; ing some
body's word for it, declared the man
out. This raised a difference that
lasted nearly an hour. In order to
continue and finish the game Frost
burg yielded the point and Cumber-
land made run. At the end of the
seventh inning the game was called on
account of darkness. Score to 4.
When the tie will be decided is not
known at this writing.
According to the Star, the Lonacon-
ing club, lately roosting on the tip of
a great moral pinnacle, agreed to come
down and "play an exhibition game"
with Frostburg Thursday. The Star
advised its club to ''assert their rights
for once" in the selection of an umpire.
The JOURNAL, on the other hand, in
the interest of human life, suggests
that no honest Homecoming man be
chosen. He cannot do justly and go
back there to live.
Later--The exhibition game" came
off Thursday and Frostburg "conde'
scended" to allow Homecoming to go
somersaulting home with score of
5 to ..

We don't think that Frostburg can any
longer lay claim that their team is superior
to ours, etc.

ton between teams Is it not con-

1t is difficult to understand how any
logical and intelligent mind can think
of setting up Il free list under the prin,
ciples of the Chicago platform. The
only purpose Of a free list is to favor
certain preferred classes of people, and
certain preferred industries. Free
raw materials are supposed to enable
the manufacturers who consume those
materials to produce more protitably
to themselves the goods they manufac-
ture. Thus a free list naturally be-
longs to the system of protection. 1t
is entirely at home to the Mckinley
tariff, for instance ; but when we come
to a system Of tariff imports for rev.
enue only, in which there Is to be no
preferred class and no favoritism,
there can be no reason why coal inn
ported from forei gn countries should
not pay its proper share of the revenue
just like everything else The idea of
protecting manufacturers who use
coal, or any other sort of people who
use 1t, is ruled out at the beginning
and the only business of faithful and
well informed legislator is to impose %
proper revenue tax upon all coal that
is imported, as we'll as upon every
other article. New York Sun.
