officers have just completed at the
Navy Yard here an 8-inch steel rife
of the Hurst type. 1t will be tested
at Indian Head shortly. The gun is
on the lines of a regular 10 inch rifle,
but owing to the peculiar construc-
tion Of the breech, shell and cart
ridge, it is asserted that the result
will be an enormous velocity for the
proiectile.

Gibbons 1T the ca hedra1 in Ealti-

particul .Ily to the women, and in it
the cardinal to k occasion to exprs IS
his views on woman suffrage. He

of women is in the home, and the

HOLD THE CASINO.
Judge Dugro's Decision Handed
Down This Morning.
This Verdict Docs Not AFFECT tho
Ownership Of the Ground.

When the theatrical season opens this
Fall the Casino. the home OF comic
opera, will again be under the control
of the Aronson brothers.
This Is In accordance with an order
signed by Judge Dugro. of the Superior
Court, this morning, and was predicted
In THE Evening World' of last Friday.
Under Judge Dugro's order the Re
ceivers Of the New York Concert Com
pany are permitted to lease the Casino
to William Henry Hall for one year
from Nov. l next for $4,000 a year,
which Is the price paid by Canary &
Lederer, the present ~lessees.
Mr.. Hall is the representative of the
bondholders and Is also President Of
the Casino Club. which was organized
by the Aronsons.
The Club already has 800 members,
who, besides having free admission to the
theatre. are to have certain other club
privileges.
1t is generally understood that be-
sides being the representative OF the
bondholders Mr.. Hall represents the
Aronson brothers, and that they will
again be in control OF the theatre with
which they were so Ions identified.
In his order Judge Dugro stipulates
that nothing in 1t Is to be construed
as affecting the rights of Robert L..
Bixby. the owner OF the ground on
which the theatre stands, and who has
a claim for unpaid taxes.

The stock of gold in the United Ststes
Treasury has fallen to seventy-nine mill
ion dollars. This 10 t~wenty-one million
dollars below the reserve. The drain on
the gold holdings Is almost as bad as II
was In the height OF the panic.
The loss Is due to the falling OF In the
customs receipts and the expenditures
for reckless appropriations handed down
to us from the last administration.
Is any man 30 ignorant as not to know
that the falling of in customs receipts Is
wholly due to the delay in action on the
Tariff bill7 Can any one be idiotic enough
to suppose that the business OF the coun-
try and the receipts of revenue will In

The Senate is responsible Cor the delay.
1t is to the Senate's non-aetion that all
the evils under which we are suffering
are due. The infamy Of the policy Of the
Senators Is made worse by the known
fact that It Is induced by selfish and cor
rupt considerations; that stock profits
and political dickers lie at It's founda-
ton. and that trusts and monopolies
have more influence with some OF our
Senators than considerations Of the pub

their excuses too early. Why not wait
until the races are run and then hold the
weather responsible for the result.
