All the World Over People Are Flocking
From the Country to Reside In Towns.

FROM the country TO Reside In Towns.
One of the remarkable social features of
this era is the large and constant move
ment of population from the country to
the cities-a move nent that tends to rural
depopulation. IL is not coniined TO any
country or any part of the earth, but is
most marked in the oldest and most thick
ly populated countries Of Europe. 1t is
also "A movement of considerable impor-
tance to this hemisphere, and in the new
est of all civilized countries, Australia.
tt Is best stated perhaps, as n disprepor-
tionate growth of towns, to the extent that
in the past 30 or 40 years there has been
an actual diminution of the rural popula-
tion in the greater portion of Europe and
in many parts of this continent and Aus
tralia.
Perhaps this movement has been most
marked in Great Britain and Ireland. The
migration of population from the rural
districts to towns was first apparent in
Wales in 1851. IL did not become of any
importancein in England until some o years
later. During the last - years eight
counties in England aud three in Wales
have lost 10 per cent of their rural popula-
tion--that is, the rural population in those
counties today is 10 per cent less than it
was 90 years ago. In some districts, par
ticularly ia the southwest of the kingdom,
the decrease in rural population is as high
as 20 10 30 per cent. In Scotland the move
ment toward the towns began 60 years
ago, and parliamentary returns show that
the depopulation has been much greater
than in England and Wales, but the pre-
else percentage is not stated. The high
lands have suffered most, but the lowlands
have also lost heavily. The returns quoted
aver that the formation Of deer forests.
which ncces itate the diSpossession ard
driving away wholesale OF very many fam
lilies, has played no important part i'm tho
depopulaton Of the rural districts. This
indicates that TO some deeper underlying
cause must be ascribed the great general
exodus from the rural regions
The depopulation Of Ireland has been
continuous and severe and general
throughout the country. IL has not been
n rural dcpopniation only, but general
emigration from both town and country
IL began before the great famine Of 1s4O

A ROW is COMING
Very Speedily Between the senate and
House ON Land Legislation.
Bu The associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-The action ofthe
House committee ON public lands yestcr-
day in refusing 20 report favor
ably bin sent over from the
Senate granting certain amount OF the
proceeds of he sale OF public lands for
schools OF mines will probably be the be-
ginning of contest between the House
and Senate In the matter
of land legislation. The Senate
committee on public lands is made up of
Western men. In the House there
are great many Western men on
the committee, but they do not come from
the mining States or from those States
where the great bulk of public lands are
now located. There have been several
measures proposed by these Senators and
approved by the Senate committee, which
will probably not receive favorable
consideration by the House. The scheme
of sthe Senator's will be to attach this
legislation to some OF the appropriation
bills and then will come the real contest
between the House and Senate.

For very slender or undeveloped figures
this is an excellent model as it is Illus
trated; but by emitting the berthas and
ruffies on the sleeves the design becomes
n simple fall waist suitable for the most
practical uses. Two or even three mate
rails can be very effectively used liz COM
bination for this waist, aud il therefore
offers opportunity for combining two
half-worn dresses. The skirt illustrated
with the waist is made of straight
breadths, therefore no pattern is necessary
for II.
Half OF the waist pattern is given in II
pieces, front, side gore, side form and
back of lining; outer front and back
pieces, collar, two berthas, two pieces of
sleeve and three caps. Gather the outer
front and back pieces at the bottom, for
ward and back of the hole in each respect
lively. Place the berthas to the row OF
holes around the shoulder. Gather the
sleeve and the caps at the top between
the holes.

WAsHINGToN, Feb. 6.--Mr. Turner OF
Georgia, discussing the Hawaiian resolu-
ton, made a vigorous defense of Mr..
Blount.
He wa followed by General Sickles OF
New York, who made the first speech on
the Democratic side in opposition TO the
McCfeary resolution.
Mr.. Everett, OF Mase., also a member OF
the f5reign affairs committee i'm common
with other Democrats of the committee,
took the position that the
Hawaiian revolution was accomplished
through the sympathy of
Mr.. Stevens and the intimidation
produced by the landing of the
American troops. Tie warmly endorsed
the course of Mr.. Cleveland who, he de-
clared was as true an American as any
one on the floor, and who had no SYM
patby with monarchy.

The Money Market Still Remains
Very Badly Congested.
Readings Reorganization Scheme
Soon to BE Made Public-Gossip of
the Market.
Sneeial 10 Inc Nelrs

Special 10 The Ne,rs
NEW YORK, Feb. Ga story has
gained currency to the effect that
recent selling of Western Union has
been the block of stock held
in tho treasury. A director
of the company says, how
even that the rumor is not true. There
has been no occasion for selling the stock.
The company has treasury holdings now
of 81 500 shares.
The congested condition of the money
market, while indicative of light trade,
will sometime or other lead to tremen-
dous speculation. The revival will come
whenever an event occurs calculated to
impart fair degree of confidence to the
investing public.
Readings Reorganization.
NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-The Reading plan
of Reorganization is to come out shortlyand
will show that the AS will be asked to fund
coupons for five years and that incomes
Wilt give up the right that they are to get
dividend when earned. The latter Is
expected to make trouble.
nThe Watson Gas ordinance at Chicago,
passed by vote of 40 to 10, but will be
vetoed by the Mayor. Gas will probably
sell much lower today. London market
X lower. Lower prices are now prevail
ing.
The Mutual Fuel Gas people deny the
story about reduction in price of gas by
them. Although the Mayor of Chicago
states that he will veto the new ordinance
passed, still it will easily pass over the
veto.
Missouri Pacific Is off on its earnings.
Underlying the causes which have
brought about stagnation and low
prices, there is feeling that the country
to hat xUh
have the means and patience
to hold on will ultimately
be rewarded by a material advance in
their securities, whether they be railroad
or industrial shares or bonds.
There was considerable strength and ac-
tivity i'm Reading yesterday, the stock
at one time selling up to 2A.
at work and they base operations on
the announcement that the company has
secured in Philadelphia five millions on
coal and coal notes.
# is stated that the Pacific Mail Steam
ship Company and the Panama Rail
road Company have come to an
agreement. The next step will be to
tial basis.
Silver is again very weak, the price de-
clining i'm London yesterday to 30A pence
an ounce.
The strength OF the Industrial stocks is
developing somewhat more bullish feel
ing in other directions.
John ID. Rockefeller will secure control
OF the Lake Superior Consolidated Mines
at the annual meeting of the directors at
West Superior tomorrow.
Talk on Cotton Oil is very bearish. 1t
is said that the bull pool in it is loaded. up
with 100000 shares which it has been un-
successfully trying to unload.
There is no further talk of gold exports,
and the foreign trade balance continues to
grow i'm favor OF this country. Exports from
New York continue somewhat larger than
a year ago, while imports of foreign mer-
chandise are still dwindliDg.

Stairs.

No More Climbing Up smelter Bridge
Stairs.
The street car company are making an
improvement at the dam which will be
appreciated by patrons who have occa-
sion to do business at the copper smelter.
They propose to run a car over the hill
10 the smelter bridge so as to save pa
irons the trouble Of climbing the long
stairs. Heretofore they have had an old
hoist which they used occasionally, but
they are now adopting an entirely new
and much improved system. To begin
with they are making q cut OF ten feet
at the top Of the bluff and filling at the
bottom 80 as 10 reduce the grade about
3 per cent. A double track will be put
in. On one track a passenger car will
be run by means Of a trolly, while on the
other track will be a heavy car attached
to the passenger car by means OF a cable
and 30 arranged that in the event OF any
stoppage of the electric current
while the passenger car is making
the trip to the top of the bluff
the weight of this other safety car by
the law of gravitation would haul the
passenger car slowly to the top. The
passenger car is also provided with pow
erful brakes, safety clutches and every
appliance to insure safety against any
contingencies, such as the breaking OF
the cable, etc. When tho improvement
is complete the new hoist will make
regular trips to connect with all cars
that run between the Black Eagle falls
and the city.
