New Engines are to be Steadily Procured
 for the Shore Line.
 The recent lot of engines received by the Consolidated with the ten powerful passenger train engines delivered lit- tie more than a year ago, gives the road plenty of locomotives for present use. Fifteen engines is about the usual number allowed for the natural increase in business for year. One year ago when the freights had fallen off to such a great degree there was a sur plus of unused engines, but now there is hardly an engine of any account that Is not in service.
 On the New Haven system west of New London there is a greater demand for heavy engines than on the Old Col ony system, because on the many short roads that make up so large an amount of that road the smaller engines are more used. As these smaller engines get worn out transfers will be made from this line and here new engines will be procured:

Social Purity League Condemns
the Kentucky Lothario.
NEW YORK. April 1S.-The National
Social Purity today issued a state
ment regarding Its attitude to-
ward the case of Congressman
Breckenridge. The statement corrects
certain published reports of the meet
ing of March "a, and denies that the
president said the league would appeal
to congress to deDose Col. Breckenridge
whether there was any law for it or not j;
or that the league would ask Mrs.
Breckenridge to leave her hus-
baud. The statement then pro-
ceeds: ''1n view of Mr.. Breck-
inridge's elevated rank Of states
manship, his high position in the church,
an eXpOunder of morals in schools, hon.
ored in society at home and abroad as
the respected head of family, who has
been disclosed to the eyes of the whole

Whereas, the National Christian League

rity of the state depend upon indiyid-

that they be urged as an imperative

SoTE.-During the year 1889 the record for
manslaughter in st. Paul was largely in ex.
cess OF previous years owing to the fact that
several fights. resulting in the wounding Of
one or two men, occurred in the place known
as Bohemian fats. Ten persons were arrest
cd and, OF course. they could not all be, or,
rather. were not convicted, but the charge
makes the record larger than IL really ought
to be.
The appended note explains the APP
parently large number Of commitments
or manslaughter. With regard to every
other item. it will be observed that,
while the number of men on the police
force in st. Paul is much smaller in
proportion to population than in any
other city covered by the table, the
breaches of public order are far more
infrequent and less serious in character.
1t may be added to this that the bien-
NAL report of the prison inspectors OF
Minnesota shows that, while Honnepin
county furnished 70 convicts in the year
1887. and 70 i'm 1883. Ramsey county is
credited with but 10 i'm the first yeai
and 90 in the second. Statistics confirm
the general opinion that law and order
are maintained In this city at less cost
and to greater degree than In any
other city OF its size in the country.
One of the questions which the people
are to answer at the polls today is
whether they wish to have this admir-
able system of police control over
thrown for political and personal ends,
and the security of person and property
placed in the keeping of raw recruits
and inefficient personal followers of the
candidate for mayor who has made his
campaign on abundant promises of
place on the police force.
