CITIZENS MOVEMENTS.

THE EAGLE has but little faith In
citizens" movements OF any kind,
and In the so-called Civic Federation
in particular.
This organization Is made up In
part OF a few wealthy nOnentities
who, falling to do anything Of note
In public or private life during their
early days, are anxious, now that they
are In the scar and yellow leaf, to
purchase a little cheap notOriety as
"civic refOrmers:" and In part II q
number OF political adventures and
adventuresses who have fed as long as
the people would tolerate them at
the public crib, and, being useless
hacks, have been cast Of by their
party. The organization was founded
by an insolent aud ilnpertinent for
eigner who Is not even citizen OF
the United States and knows nothing
OF this country or Its affairs. The
EAGLE does not wonder that the per-
sons who, In the main, constitute the
"Civic Federation should allow
themselves to be organized, bossed
and guided by an alien and ex'jail

UNDER the supervision OF govern.
ment officials test was made re.
Gently Of the armOr made by the
Bethlehem Iron Company. The plate
tested was eighteen feet long, six
feet wide, and eleven inches thick.
The test was made by ten inch gun,
carrying q 5OO.pound projectile. The
first shot penetrated the plate twelve
and One.half inches. making the
point OF the projectile pass an inch
and a half through the armor. The
rrojectile was broken In two and the
hole 1t made was smooth and free
from cracks or ragged edges, which
demonstrates the efficiency of the
plate. One hundred and thirty-twO
pounds of powder was used In the
first test. In the second l72 POUNDS
of powder was used, and the plate
was penetrated to a depth OF fifteen
and three .eighths inches. While In
both instances the plate was deeply
penetrated the backing OF the plate
was not disturbed. The maximum

test Is necessary for success. The
severest conditions are imposed, con-
ditions which never could exist In
the practical use of an armor plate.
Therefore the results of this work
were reported as satisfactory, and
the plate, amounting to 400 tons. will
be accepted by the government.

BENEFITS which are great and far

the Quietest way. Something of this
order Is the demonstration Of an anti.

that the latter was q perfect antidOte

cHAE0iN0 THE MOTIVE pOWER.

The Committee on Streets and Al.
leys South Wednesday considered
various ordinances Of the South Side
company substituting electricity on
the trolley plan for horses rs the mo.
tive power along several Of the cross.
town streets which are operated by
that corporation. These ordinances
were introduced several months ago,
but as one Of them proposed to ope.
rate the trolley system on Clark
street there was an outcry against
1t. That ordinance was dropped
Wednesday. Another provided for
the construction Of q road to
be operated either by horse
or electrical power on 63d
street from State street to Cottage
Grove avenue. Still another provided
for new line on Wallace street from
Thirty.ninth to Root street. This
also was to be run by horses or cleo.
tricity ut the option OF the CONF any.
The committee was In session about
an hour, and finally dis posed OF the
measures. The Clark street ordinance
was placed on filc without debate,
every one deeming II a bad measure.
1t was agreed to recommend the
Sixty.third street line, as Mr.. Grin.
nell said the property.owners wanted
1t and his company would helr
pay for the improvement Of tho
street. The Wallace street line wa.
also recommended for passage. Tht
general change Of power ordinanc,
caused considerable discussion
Among the lines stricken out were
those relating to the erect ion Of troll
ley.wire poles along 3lst and 26ti
streets, on Archer avenue, between
the river and State street, and OF
Indiana avenue, north of 10th street

differences between the United States
and Great Britain on the Behring

provide any punishment for its viola

THE lot Of q State Constable whose
duty Is to enforce the dispensary

Charleston one OF these c0nstables

mandate Of the United States court,
and was sent to jail for contempt,
and another has been arrested for
assault on woman whose house he
searched for contraband liquors, and
he was heavily fined therefor by the
police court. Governor Tillman Is

a goodly number OF the people seem
equally determined that he shall not,

0OOD.BY, STEAD.

That impudent foreigner, Editor
Stead, has migrated from this coun.
try. but has left behind him a load Of
the peculiar brand Of dirt of which
his extra makeup is composed.
The people Of Chicago have had an
infinite amount OF patience with this
insolent, ignorant and intermeddling
alien, no doubt tolerating him be.
cause believing him to be o we'll.
meaning crank. For that reason her
public men have allowed themselves
to be catechised, criticised and
sneered at to their boards, they have
permitted their wives and daughters
to be grossly insulted to their faces,
they have allowed themselves to be
twittcd and gibcd at on every con.
ceivable subject, and dictated to In
regard to their own affairs.
1t Is a pity, however, that when
Stead got tired abusing the hospital.
ity and patience Of the city Of Chi
cago, that when he got weary OF
metaphorically tweaking the nose Of
his host, he should, when leaving,
have been allowed to leave after him
an inodorous memory Of himself.
This Stead has done, however, In
the shape Of publication which Is
soon to make Its appearance, and
which, II report speaks truly, Is libel
on this city, and IN outrageous abuse
OF the liberty Of the press. The stun
contained in this publication Is, II
what has been said Of II IL true, q
species OF sacrilegious buffoonery,
constituting work which should be,
wherever found, taken with tOngs
and put into the fire.

there were no followers of McGillen

and Hopkins, and the friends Of both
gentlemen, were In accord on the

NO DEMOCRATIC FACTIONS.

How much the deeply interested
organs of Republicanism know of the
affairs and conditions Of the Demo-
cratic party is demonstrated by the
manner in which they dealt with
the meeting of the Democratic Cen.
trail Committee last week. Previous
to the meeting II was gravely an.
nounced that there was blood on the
moon, that there was to he gore shed
between the two factions, that there
was to be a regular Kilkenny cat
fight between "the followers OF Nc
Glllen and Hopkins" and so forth.
After the meeting these proph'
cts OF evil were compelled

ships, and 1t will be a matter of sur.
prise II Republicans allow themselves
to be coddled and patronized by the
Civic Federation. 1t is very probable
that the result Of the spring election

THE NEW DEMOCRATIC COMMIT.

The subcommittee named by Aid.
John McGillen, Chairman of the
Democratic Central Committee, are
wisely chosen.
The men composing this body are
excellcntly qualified to handle the
work and attend to the details Of

The two principal subcommittee
are as follows:
Executive Commlttee--John w.
Lanehart, Denis Considlne, Edward
Williams, Patrick Mccarthy, Frank
s. Peabody, Henry F. Donovan, John
J. Brennan, Frank w. Walker, Thos
Byrne, John W. Mccarthy (Lemont),
Frank \. Brandecker, William
Loeffler, and Thomas Cusack. Chair.
man McGilleh and Secretary Strain
are members Of the committee. The
new members are Frank Walker, who
succeeds William Calhoun Assay:
John w. Mccarthy, who succeeds
Mr.. SiRwalt, and Thomas Cusack.
Committee on Primaries, Contests
and Appeals--Ald. John J. Brennan,
Frank Kerr, p. II. Donahue, John
Cunningham, Clarke f. Rolfe, John
Fitzsimons and Frank G. Murphy.
The claim made by some of tic
Republican organs that there Is any.
thing indicative Of antagonism Il
the Mayor or to the city administra'
ton In the formation of these com
mittees Is simply absurd. The few
changes In the Executive Committee
were made for reasons over which
the Chairman had no control
and the gentlemen comprising
the other were selected solely be
cause Of their fitness. and with ar
eye solely to the Interests Of the
party. Every man en- the commit
tees Is and has been q close persona

not and there will not no any fac
tlon In the Democratic party Of Cool

THE COUNTY TREASURER OUT OF
FUNDS.

Cook County, according to a report
from Treasurer Kern's Office, Is prac.
tically out OF funds, and In all proba.
bility the Treasury will remain In
this depleted condition two weeks, or
until after March 10. This Is q con.
dition which annually confronts the
County Treasurer, and Is due, 1t Is
claimed, to the fact that the county
retains no surplus funds. Conse.
Quently at the end of the corporate
year the Treasury Is practically empty
and remains so until the Town Col.
lectors turn over the moneys collect.
cd from taxes. The statutes require
that the Collectors turn over their
funds not later than March 10 of each
year. and usually the County Treas.
ury is empty two or three weeks be.
fore this time. There are thirty.
three OF the Town Collectors, but
the bulk OF the tax 5 collected by
the South, North and West Town
Collectors. This year they report col.
lecti0ns very light, and thus far have
only paid into the County Treasury
s75, 200, $40, 900, and $50, 900, respec-
lively. This money has all been used In
the payment OF county hills.
County Treasurer Kern said that In
all probability the payment Of salar'
les and bills for supplies for February
will not be made before March II or
10, when the Collectors will have
made their tlnal payments as required
by law.
