small boys are taking. Whenever a car
passes crowd Of them, tho conductor
and motorman arc almost invariably
greeted with chorus Of "bah's" and
shower OF soft mushy snow balls. The
men generally take 1t good naturedly.
When the crowd Of boys is unusually
large and the bombardment heavy the
car looks as though it had gone through
Johnstown flood, :,
The proposition laid before General
Manager Jolly yesterday Is, It is under,

No senator Elected in Knnsns,

TorEKA. KAs., Jan. 24.-when both
houses and the senate met this morning
to ballot for U. S. Senator tho situation
was very complicated. The Populists
and Democrats had not oven decided
upon caucus nominee. Nothing has
occurred to clear the political atmos-
phere, except that Senator Perkins will
not hold over in case of the failure Of
the legislature to elect senator, for
Gov. Lcwelling would in this case select
his successor. This opinion is based
upon the precedents established by the
U. s. senate, Ballots were taken in
both houses to-day but without election.
Joint sessions will be held tomorrow.

CARTHAGE REDITIVTS.

Renewed protests have recently been adj
dressed to the French Government by italy
against the conversion by the former of the
Tunsian port OF lizerta into great naval and
military stronghold. The representations Of
the Italian Ambassador at Paris have received
the public Endorsement CT his German and
Austrian colleagues and are popularity believed
to have been prompted and tacitly supported
by the british Foreign Office, with the object
OF silencing the French clamcr against the con-
tinued military occupation of Egypt by Eng
land. 1t would be difficult for the latter. so
long as she persists in retaining her hold upon
the Delta of the Nile. to offer any diplomatic
objections to the dOngs in Tnnis Of her Gallo
neighbOr. The position Of France with regard
to the ancient Kingdom of Carthage is in every
respect more logical and legal than that of
Great Britain in Egypt. For whereas England
retains possession of the latter cOuniry-a pos
session only achieved by means of bloodshcd-
in defiance of the protests OF its SliZcrain the
Sultan. as well as Of the wishes of its ruler
the khedivc. and in flagrant disregard of
solemn pledges and CT treaty rights France. on
the other hand, enjoys the control of Tunis By
virtue of the sO-callcd liardo Convention con-
Guided by the Sovereign or Bey, who placed
thereby both his Kingdom and his dynasty
under the protection of France.
1t is easy however, to understand the ap-
prehcnsons with which the construction of the
elaborate system of Notifications at Bizerta is
being regarded by the British and Italian GOV
ernments. Bizerta, which occupies the site OF
the ancient city of Carthage, is only eighteen
hours distance from Malta. and can be reached
from the Sicilian coast in a single night. When.
therefore, the work Of transforming the city
and harbor into an almost impregnablc strong,
hold is completed it will constitute a most
serious menace to beth Great Britain and Italy.
1t will force the former to strengthen her de-
fences at Malta. to increase tho sze of tho

longer any secret of her determination to con-
vert Bizerta into the greatest naval stronghold
of the world. and has already spent some
$40 900. 900 with this object in view. She
proposes to make the port the principal point
of concentration of all her maritime forces in
the great and inevitable struggle for the SUI

circumstances it is not beyond the bounds OF
possibility that the fate of Europe may once

Bay of Carthage.
