sidewalks and even In the streets. In front OF
both the Fifteenth and sixteenth street entrances
When the doors thrown open the crowd

Their Tails Not DOckPd.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-The Humane
Society Of Washington has investigated
reports that the torses Of the White
House have undergone the process OF
tail-docking, and have found them TO be
untrue. Mr.. A. :. Pratt, the president OF
the Washington society, received a tele-
gram to-day from President Haynes, OF
the New York Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals, calling his at
tcntion 10 the matter, and asking him 10
take action. An agent of the local so
ciety went through the White House
stables. and found that the tails Of the
carriage horses had recently been trim
med, but that the flesh had not been
cut at all. From the trimming the i'm
preston was probably given that the tails
had been locked. The keeper OF ne sta
bles informed the agent that President
Cleveland was opposed 10 docking, as
being cruel and unnecessary.
There is a district law fixing a penalty
Of 500 for docking horse. Its passage
was secured some years ago by the Hu-
name Society. II is sometimes evaded by
sending horses out Of the district 10 I'M
dergo the operation. for the law Is always
enforced in the city whenever evidence
Of it's violation can be secured.
Mr.. Pratt, who is a prominent business
man, said: Il was unwilling 10 believe
that the President would have his horses
locked, and am glad TO learn that ne
has not done So"

,oME SOUTHERN ELECTIONS.

Those who think the very life of the
nation depends upon keeping our stan
dard OF value unimpaired need not de-
spond The evidences grow That even
In the South, which we have 10 ADMIT
with shame is the adopted home, IL
not the place of birth. of free silver, the
common sense Of the people is waking
ND. and they are beginning to see the
folly of having two dollars, one Of which
is worth one hundred cents and the other
of which is worth only fifty cents
We referred yesterday TO the fact that
Major Bacon. who has just been elected
United States senator from Georgia, made
q speech to the Georgia Legislature IN
which he said ne was in favor OF free
coinage Of silv, n. but deTarded that the
silver dollar shall be kept just as valua-
BILE intrinsically as the gold dollar. Not
with standing these Views lie was elected
by very large majority ever Mr.. Patrick
Walsh, VINO is an unconditional advocate
Ct free coinage at ratio of l6 20 /.
which would make the silver dollar worth
only half Ct the gold dollar. Majcr
Bacons doctrine is not. of course, free
silver, or anything like It. We don't
know just how he would work out his
plan, but he is as emphatically opposed
as we are to a dollar that is in It's IF
worth only fifty cents, and depends upon
Government aid to fiji up the vacuum as
signed TO the other fifty cents Major
Bacon was elected, however. by the Ge1r-
gid Legislature by a very large majority.
Equally as good news comes from Mis-
sissippi General Catchings has con-
sistently opposed the folly of free silver
in Congress, and in the recent election,
Notwithstanding these views. he was tri-
umphantly reelected, the vote opposed 10
him amounting to only about II l-2 per
cent. OF the whole, while Storytelling
John Allen, who is a rank free sllverite,
was reelected il is true. but the oppo-
sition to him amounted to % per cent. of
the whole vote and some of the other
free silver candidates in Mississippi mad
equally as large a percentage of votes
cast against them.
We believe that If the Democratic can
didates for Congress in the South, in
stead of yielding in the cowardly way
they do to the free silver clatter would
meet the issue squarely and explain the
matter TO the people, the South would get
right upon this subject. and no longer
make itself a by-wOrd of reproach from
people everywhere VINO have learned
the merest elements of political economy.

IMPROVED FIRE ARMS,

We take from the Baltimore sun the
following very intere: ting account of the
late Improvement in great and small
fire arms:
At a recent meeting of the Armstrong
Company, of England, a striking state
ment was made by Lord Armstrong in
regard 10 the Progress made during the
last decade in qulck-tring guns and am
munition AS respects the latter il is
shown that cordite makes 1t possible to
get enormous power even with guns Of
moderate size. Ten years ago with an
elght-inCh gun striking force of 5,2jI
foot-tons was attained, but at present,
Wlth the new ammunition, six-inch
gun with prOjectile weighing 100 hounds
gives velocity OF nearly 5000 feet per
seco.d ana a striking force of 1854 foot
tons, win a plCJecule of forty-rVe
pounds ana very long six-inch gun
a velocity OF i,9SO leet per second mas
been oDtaned-ah astounding speed, in
view OF the fact that 700 feet per sec
ond was, at not very remote period
considered a high velocity. A result of
this speed, and the Halter trajectory that
accompanies IL, is increased accuracy OF
fire. Recently guns crew en- an Eng
lish cruiser, which was steaming eight
knots an hour, fired in three minutes
eighteen projectiles of 100 pounds each
from a siX-inch gun at a target from
1000 TO 200 YARDS distant, ana hit IL
fourteen times. Another guns crew got
twelve hits out of eighteen shots. and a
third twelve hits out OF seventeen shots
This accuracy teStincS, perhaps. 10 the
good training of the British mln-o war s
man. as we'll as to the excellence OF his
powder.
An eight-inch gun OF the Blanca Encal-
ada, cruiser just built for China, iired
recently 2l6-pound prOJectile four times
In sixty-two seconds with a guns crew
that had never before handled the gun.
Ten years ago an eight-inch gun could
fire but four rounds in five minutes and
its proJectle had an energy of but 5.245
foot-tons, as against an energy of 1850
foot-tons possessed by the proJectile i'm
this Is the fact that the new gun is opera
ted by eight men as against eighteen
required for its predecessor. The heaviest
guns, thanks 10 the new hydraulic mount
ings, combine rapidity OF fire with ac-
curacy TO an astonishing degree. A Is H.
inch gun of the Royal Sovereign fires
seven rounds with projectiles OF 1,250
pounds, in twelve minutes and while the
ship Is going at an eight-knot speed hits
a target 1900 yards off six times in
the seven shots. Such accuracy must. II
is evident. make an unarmored cruiser
uncomfortable when opposed In action
10 a first-class battle ship. According TO
Lord Armstrong. the quick firing principle
has been adapted also TO field artillery
and with great success. The recoil has
been brought under contro-a difficult
undertaking. In recent trial with
3-3-inch Guick-fring field gun five
rounds OF shrapnel were fired In
ffty-three seconds. Evidently the use of
the new artillery must alter the charsc-
