MODEST REQUESTS.

New York had its share Of the army"
yesterday. The visitors came from New
Haven by boat. having mustered enough
money to pay their fares. They were not
allowed to parade the streets. but pro-
ceeded to the headquarters OF the Peo-
pies party and sat down to a banquet OF
frankfurters and beer.
1t is significant that these New Eng
landers, about sixty In number, repudiate
any connection with Coxey. They go to
Washington. they say, to petition Con-
gress on their own account. and mod
estly ask lor the establishment OF Gov
eminent farms and factories where the
unemployed may o and at all times be
supplied with work: for n constitutional
amendment affirming the right OF every
citizen to have work; for the abolition OF
interest on bonds: for the construction OF
good roads; for National control Of rail
roads, telegraphs and mines: for the Gull
tivation of all land not in use, and for
~nationalizing trusts.
The visitors and their friends meet at
Germania Hall tonight to discuss this
platform. 1t may be enlarged by re-
quiring Congress to supply every citizen
with good health and a wife who Is not
a suffragist. But II Is to be feared there
may be as much difficulty In getting Con
gress to act upon 1t as there is to make
the Senate vote or tariff reform.

GOOD SENSE.

Mr.. G~ladstone's successor has been
making IA speech at Manchester. and has
said some sensible things. Lord Rose
berry Is a typical Englishman n a
member OF the House of Lords. He
probably has rs many insular prejudices
as usually distinguish Englishmen, but
he differs from n large number of his
countrymen in progressing with the
times and not remaining stationary
while the world moves.
Lord Rosebery declares hat his con-
ndence in the success of Home Rule Is
the result OF his conviction that in this
day of advanced intelligence old preju-
dices and errors are bound to die out.
The English people. he believes. will
soon be willing to concede justice to
Ireland.
In like name he believes that par
l%iamentary obstruction will cease. be-
cause the longer there is congestion In
the Legislative body the more satisfied
the people will become of its absurdity
and wrong. and the more resolved that
II must be remedied.

A A BETRAYED.

The Democratic Senators were nearly
unanimous yesterday in their caucus ac-
ton looking to the advancement OF the
Tariff bill and Is early passage in a
compromise shape. Inc single exception
was found in Senator Hill. whose soil
tary may was recorded against the
resolution to introduce amendments only
through the Finance Committee.
Senator Murphy was absent from the
caucus. Whether his absence was in
duced by Mr.. Croker Ia not known. But
II Is certain that he was out driving
with the Tammany boss while this most
important meeting OF the Democratic
Senators was being held.
Thus the great Empire State was throt-
tied at Washington when the question or
the relief OF the buein ess OF the nation
from It's paralysis and the rescue OF labor
from its suffering was under discussion.
This betrayal OF the State by Its rep
re%sentatives in the United States
Senate, this treason to the De-
mocracy, was made the more
marked by the fact hat Mt the same
moment the voices OF the most promi-
nent Democrats in New York were
raised at a great meeting In this city
demanding prompt and favorable action
by the Senate On tariff reform.
One New York Senator voting against
the interests OF the nation and the other
junketing with n Tammany politician
while Rome In burning. What a spec
tacle for the Empire State!

Mr.. Frohman's counsel argued that the

cause of the success of "Charley's

duced. The titles. the lawyer held. were
