Gossipers abroad say that Sarah Bern

Gossipers abroad say that Sarah Bern
hardt's reckless son, Maurice, has
squandered all of his own fortune and
not little of Sarahs money at baccarat,
and as his independent little wife re-
fuses to support him any longer, they
have quarreled and separated. Then
business has not been exactly successful
of late with the great actress.
Several Of her ventures have not been
rich in results. Finally they have bur-
lesqued her Cleopatra, and represent
the divine as mildly dancing and sing
ing Ta-ra-ra boom-de-ay, and Sarah
doesn't like it bit. One can fancy the
choice but trsnslatable variety of
French profanity with which the great
tragedienne discusses this succession OF
misfortunes.

Fast Trains.

It is the opinion of engineers
that the speed of the fastest rail-
road trains in this country and
Europe has reached about the high
est limit of safety under the present
conditions. The difficulty lies in
the curves of railroads. If some
motive power were applied capable
of producing double the speed OBJ
tanned from the steam locomotive
it could not be used on existing
railroads without the constant dan
ger of hurting trains off the track
at tangent whenever a curve was
struck. In England experiments
are being made with what is known
as the single rail system, which, it
is believed, will solve the problem
of speed. In this system the cars
sit astride of a single rail, raised to
the height of four feet from the
ground, while on either side, near
the ground, are guide rails on which
a set of small wheels run. 1t is
claimed that with this system it is
almost impossible to throw Il train
from the rails, and the public will
be able to enjoy the advantage of
the high rates of speed, 100 or $50
miles an hour, promised by expert
ments with electric motors. The
system, it is said, can be applied to

"There was never building like it in
the world" said the bishop. ''It was

interior in which 6000 persons may sit on
any day, and 10000 can be seated if stools

Beecher's old Plymouth church is more
plain and bare. 1t is Just a great hall with
a wide gallery around three sides, with lit
tie wooden posts, which look like marble,
to support the gallery; with battalions of
pews on the floors, and a gigantic organ at
one end rising above the greatest choir
space ever saw in church. And that,
in turn, is above a terraced series of plat
forms leading down to the main floor, like
a very broad but short staircase.
A man stood at the end of the church.
He said: $50 up in the gallery and walk to

not see the difference between a strike and
a boycott, as recognized by the judges at
Toledo, so far as the effect on public traf-
fc is concerned. 1t is impossible to con
ceive of a strike upon any of the main
transportation lines that would not hinder
interstate commerce. Therefore strikes
are equally under the bane of the law, and
so are combinations of railroad officials or
other representatives of capital having the
same effect as strikes or boycotts. SO far
as the welfare of the public is concerned it
makes no difference whether it is a boy
colt, or strike, or any unjust combination
either of labor or of capital that does the
mischief.
The sum and conclusion of all these
Federal court decisions, to which he has
alluded in successive issues, is that rail
road employees have no right, under exist
ing laws, to quit work in such a manner as
to cause an interruption of railroad traffic.
Judge Speer states his conclusion in these
words: "While, therefore, any engineer
may at any time exercise his right as an
individual to leave the service of the re-
ceiver, he may not do so in such manner as
to injure the property or impede its proper
management by the receiver He is
speaking of the case in his own district,
where the court is in charge of bank
rupt road, but he takes pains to make the
ruling apply in a general way by adding
the suggestion to organized labor that
where injustice has been done or threaten
ed, it twill find its useful and valuable
mission in presenting to the courts of the
country a strong and resolute protest and
a petition for redress against unlawful
trusts and combinations which would do
unlawful wrong to it,

There is still another Federal court de-
cision to report this week touching the re-
lations of labor and capital, and one which
goes a step further than that of Judges
Taft and Ricks in the Ann ArhOr case.
The Springfield Republican concisely sum-
marzes the facts and the deductions drawn
from them. The United States district court
for the southern district of Georgia is
operating the bankrupt Central railroad
of Georgia through the hands of a receiver.
The receiver refused to treat with the
brotherhood of locomotive engineers, in a
question of wages, as an organization.
The brotherhood appealed to the court
and Judge Speer grants the request as
against the receiver. He gave out on Satur-
day an opinion explaining and supporting
his decision that the receiver must deal
with the brotherhood as an organization.
His decision is called victory for the
brotherhood. His full judgment in the
case shows that it is no more so than the
decisions of Judges Taft and Kicks.
Judge Speer bases his action on the fact
tions of this railroad, is bound by the law
to see that no interruption OF traffic en-
sues. As the brotherhood embraces in
its membership more than so per cent of
the men trained to run railroad engines, he
cannot deem it wise to ignore this labor
organization. But while compelling the
receiver to treat with the brotherhood, he
on the other hand, requires the officers
of that order to enter into contract on their
side.to perform continuous service. Here
arises the question passed on at Toledo
| the right to strike and the right to boycott
the freight of a road on which there is a
strickland Judge Speer faces them.
Judge Taft at Toledo drew a distinction
between these two questions. The en-
ployes of the Ann Arbor road. he said
could quit work at will to exact more favor
able terms of employment from the com
pany. He thus maintained the right tC
strike. But the employees of the Lake Shore
company cannot lawfully refuse to hau
freight from the Ann ArbOr road-the LAX,
Shore being compelled to do this by tn,
interstate act-because they would thus
force the Lake Shore to do an unlaw
full act, and the persons so forcing one t
do that which is unlawful is himself actin,
unlawfully He thus denied the right o
boycott.
Judge Speer agrees to ali this. He de
nies the right of boycott and declares tina
the brotherhood on the Georgia Centra
must give up its famous rule u, whicl
says that engineers must refuse to hau
freight delivered from road on which tn
brotherhood has a strike. OF this rule h
says there cannot be a doubt that it is il
"direct and positive violation of the law
of the land, and no court, state or fedora
could hesitate for moment so to declare.
1t is in conflict not only with the anti-trus
law but with the provisions of the intel
state act. But Judge Speer goes furthe
than this and says, in effect, that he car

Additional Points Under the school


Law.
Some persons, among them notably a
correspondent in Westminster West, ap-
pear to think the shares of public school
money should be paid over to the districts
this year as before, whatever their circum-
stances may be; and if it makes a surplus,
be divided among the taxpayers to that eX-
tent. A plain reason to the contrary arises
from an examination of the subject. 1t is
that these public moneys can only be used
for the support of schools themselves, not
even for schoolhouses, and a division of
own use would not be for any school pur-
pose, but would be an absolute and unlawful
perversion. These moneys are made upprin-
cipally of the income of the United States
deposit money, the income from the Hun
tington fund, and the II per cent tax re-
quired by section 2SS of the act of 1883.
The United States deposit money was de-
rived from the sale of public land and by
act of Congress, deposited with the states
for the support of schools, and by the
states divided among the towns to be loan
ed on interest to raise the income. This
income has heretofore been divided by the
towns among the districts. Neither the
states nor the towns nor the districts could
lawfully use it for any other purpose.
The income of the Huntington fund is,
by No. 230 of the laws Of 1884, distributed
to towns in the same manner as United
States deposit money, for school purposes.
The y per cent tax is, by the law requir-
ing it, expressly raised for the use of
schools. This money all belongs to the
towns IN the first place. as districts have
no right to it but for school purposes, if
they have no school purposes for it they do
not seem to have any right to it at all. If
district has temporarily borrowed money,
or gone on credit for the support of its
schools in anticipation of its share of the
public money, the repayment of the money
or discharge of this debt would meet a
! school purpose and such district would
seem to be entitled to enough of its share
of the public money for this purpose, but
not to more.
Under the former law the district would
have the money but would have to use il
for schools; now the town has to support
the schools and so do what the district:
would have had to do with the money
That the town should have the money to
do this with instead of the districts having
it to divide among the taxpayers does no
seem to be any undue hardship upon the
districts.

The New Commissioner of Pensions.

Mr.. Cleveland's choice of pension com
missioner is universally commended The
incumbent, who was appointed last week,
is Judge William Lochren of Minneapolis
an old soldier with brilliant war record,
and a jurist of high reputation. Another
strong point in his favor is that he is a
Vermonter. He was born in Franklin
county 81 years ago, was educated in the
public schools, and admitted to the bar
there. He went to Minnesota in 1857 aud
began the practice of his profession. He
was one of the first men in the state to
drop civic pursuits and enlist when the
war broke out. His army service was Sc
we're. eliminating at Gettysburg, where his
regiment made the famous charge that
checked Picketts onslaught. OF the 300
men who made that charge only 40
came out whole. and young Lochren. who
started on the rush as first lieutenant of
Co. +, came out in command of the regi-
ment, every officer above his grade having
been killed or wounded.

practice of law. In 1882 he was appoint
ed by a Republican governor to judge
ship on the circuit bench, and at the ex-
piration of his appointment was twice re-
elected to the same place without opposi-
ton. His popularity is best attested by
the fact that although he is a Democrat
his candidacy for the place for which he is
nominated was endorsed by the unanimous
vote of the Republican Legislature of Min
nesota.
The St. Paul Pioneer Press, the leading 9
Republican organ of the Northwest, cor
daily endorses the appointment and say
that, "In whatever other respects the ad =
ministration of Mr.. Cleveland may be open
TO criticism, there will be nothing but
praise for his selection for this most i'm =
portant post of a man whose ability and
character are both pledges of his fitness. ="
Judge Lochren is an active Grand Arm V
man so that there will be no reason to fear
that his administration of the pension de
partment will not be in sympathy with all
legitimate claims of the old soldiers.

George l. Seney, formerly one of the
best-known inanciers of the country, died
Friday night. He has lived quietly at his
country place in New Jersey, devoting
himself to stock raising and his books and
pictures since the failure of the Metropoli-
tan bank, of which he was president, in
1884. He had managed TO regain in the
last half-dozen years the greater part of
his lost fortune, and it will not be surpris-
ing if he leaves at least some of it in pub
lie bequests He established the Seney
hospital in Brooklyn, to which he gave
S500,0O0. Among his other more impor-
tant gifts were those of $550,000 to Wes-
leyan university, 1925, 900 to several
Georgia institutions, 100000 to the Long
Island historical society's library fund,
$25, 900 to the industrial school for home
less children in Brooklyn, S62, 900 to the
Brooklyn library and S25, 900 to the Brook
lyn eye and ear infirmary. 1t was a curl
GUS modesty of Mr.. Seney that he would
never tell of his benefactions if they were
less than S25, ,000 He probably gave
away a great many thousands in small
amounts Mr.. Seneys gallery of 1877 pic
lures was one of the finest in the United

FINANCIAL LETTER.
Weekly Review from New York.
Reading and New England, Winter
Wheat and Gold HoIdings---a Stupen-
dOus scheme.
"a BROAD STREET,
NEW YORK, April II. 1893.


NEW YORK, April II, 1893.
Stocks and bonds have been in better
demand the past week and better prices
have obtained all over the list. Mr.. Nc
Leod has at last been forced from the
presidency of the Reading railroad, his
resignation to take effect May 1. When
the receivers rendered their report of the
condition of the company not long ago,
they placed the floating debt at SIS, 900, 900.
1t now seems to be nearer $24, 100000.
This state of affairs, however, seems to
have been discounted in the price of the
stock. The Reading is great road and
the whole capital stock is now selling at
the equivalent of less than S10,000,O00
cash. New York and New England con-
tnues to advance, with the old-time
mystery connected with it.
The April report of the department of
agriculture makes the average condition
of winter wheat on the first of April TIA
against S1.2 last year; rye S5.7. Averages
of principal wheat states are: Ohio 81,
Michigan a., Indiana 49, Illinois 70,
Missouri 76 and Kansas 81. The Pacific
states show a favorable condition, with

On April l our total gold holdings were
1923 ,j13, ,663, with outstanding gold liabil-
titles of S116,G21, ,439. In excess of the
greenback redemption fund the net gold
was So, S92, ,224, but this latter sum has
been considerably reduced in the past few
days by the heavy expectations of gold.
New York to Paris by rail is a rather
novel idea, but the scheme is being agitat-
ed, and future developments will be watch
ed with interest. This stupendous under
taking is practically an international one,
being probably backed in this country by
DreXel, Morgan d Co., and other Ameri-
can bankers, while the Russian end will be
financed by Isaac c. Seibert, a well-known
Jewish banker of St. Petersburg. 1t is
| proposed to build this road from Vancouver
to Cape Prince of Wales, bridging over
Bering strait, thence to Sandeluske, form
| ing a connection at the latter place with
the trans-Siberian road, thus making
through railway communication with st.
Petersburg. This road is estimated to cost
S23, 900 per mile, and the distance from
| Vancouver to Sandeluske is about 1900
miles. Just imagine the United States
having communication by land with the
whole continent of Europe, We are
| great people, but it will take great nerve,
patience, skill, and last, but not least,
lots of money, to complete this colossal
project.

The prospect of a general outbreak of
cholera in Europe the coming summer is
threatening. There have been over 60
deaths from the disease at Lorient, on the
southern coast of France, since March %.
10 of them occurring last Sunday. The
British government has recognized the fact
by notices sent to all the post-oflice officials
in Great Britain and Ireland. A Vienna
despatch reports 1G cases in different parts
of the Austrian province of Galicia. The
scourge is reappearing in various parts of
Russia, the government reports showing
some 200 cases up to this time, while it is
fact of common knowledge that not
nearly all the cases are covered by these re-
ports. The Hamburg authorities are
adopting energetic measures against vessels
arriving from infected ports. The World's 5
Fair will be fortunate, and the whole
country will be fortunate, if the disease is
kept out of our borders this year.
