SHOULD HOLD The MASTERY
Consul General Jernigan's Views Of
United States Commercial Power.
Holds Half as Much of the World s
Banking as All Europe
Combined.

Consul General Jernigan, stationed at
Shanghai, reports to the Department of
State that a cotton mill, under British man
agement, i'll soon be erected in Shanghai.
The erection of the mill was made possible
by the treaty of peace between China and
Japan
The prospectus for the first cotton mill
was greeted with applause when announced
in the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce.
The prospec Is of the new company are bright,
and since its formation three large cotton
mills are contemplated, the largest of W hich
will be under the management OF well
known American firm.
Mr. Jernigan says that it is believed that
China has in contemplation banking sys-
tenn, Organized after Western systems, tax
ing from each such parts as can be more
readily utilized.
In connection with the currency subject
Mr. Jernigan urges the establishment or an
American bank at Shanghai. At present
the trade between the United States and
China is through the medium OF exchange
negotiated through British banks in China.
Tue Institutions profits on exchange could
be made as W ell by an American bank In
conclusion the report says:
I'm the value OF manufactured products
and banking power the United states nave
no superior and no equal in the world In
1893 the manufactured products OF Great
Britain were valued at $4,000, 100000,
and those OF the United States at IS, S,iOO,-
000, 900, which, compared with the in
dustriaI statistics of European nations,
discIoses the fact that the joint German
and French manufactured products VIII
not much more than make up the differ
ence between the values of American aud
British products.
With such a balance sheet placed by the
side of the three principal manufacturing
countries of Europe, why should Amer
leans fear competition, and why should
they not dominate the commerce of Asian
lands and seas?
The supremacy of the United States tn
banking power is no less marked.
The total banking power OF the world is
estimated at 100000, 100000. of this
North America, mainly the United States
controls Sc ,00o, 100000, while all Europe
including Great Britain. controls the bal
ance, showing that the United States holds
about half as much OF the worlds banking
power as all Europe combined, and greatly
i more than any single country in Europe OF
the world. The country then, which con
trolls the worlds finance should hold the
mastery OF the orld's commerce, and the
chief share of the worlds wealth. This is
the problem which the business men of the
United States should solve. and, by wei
directed efforts in their favor"

CHRISTIAN VISION
DR.. Hamlin's Sermon Upon the Co
xnrSIn,, nf Pnul

DR.. Hamlin's Sermon Upon the Con-
version of Paul.
The Rev. Teunis Hamlin preached TO an
unusually large congregation yesterday
at the morning services at the Church OF the
Covenant.
The subject of the discourse was Chris
tian vision" based on the words OF the
Apostle Paul, found in the Books OF Acts,
26 10, ''Whereupon, oh, King AgTippa, /
was not disobedient to the heavenly VISION
In the opening Rev. DR.. HanlIn related
the manner of the conversion or Paul
while on his way TO Damascus. 1t was not
a threat or logical argument which brought
this remarkable change in the soul OF Paul.
Ii was not logic, for haditbeen he wouldhave
met ard refnted it with logic more keen.
1t was not fear, for he knew no such FEELING,
for he was mad and his heart hardened and
he was too prejudiced to listen to reason
or advice no matter from what quarter Ii
came
What was it, then, that brought this
miraculous change? 1t was vision. not n
dream or fancy, but a heavenly vision; a
revelation of the power of Christ, the son or
God: revelation or the truth that tHrlst
is divine.
''But there is another vision" said he,
''of self It is when we beold this that
we recognize our SinfulneSs and turn to
Christ and throw ourselves on his mercy.
But do not, like Paul, wait for the lightning
frcm the monday sky to bring about this
change in our hearts-turn to your Bibles
and seek it and there you wiz find 1t. "

PLAYHOUSE Is A BEA UTY
Manager Albaugh Will Welcome
Many Old Friends Tonight.
Hand some Drop Curtain Placed in
PositionLastN Night-Eie
and Orchestra Rehearsal.

The new and beautiful Lafayette Square
Opera House received its baptism of music
and lights last evening, when flood OF
electric glory was thrown upon the curtain
which was placed inpositionat l o clock, to
the tinkling strains OF the sleigh bell chorus
of La TZigane. Manager Albaugh, who
has seen great many curtains, regard the
new one unrolled last night las the hand
soonest in America.
The painting ON the curtain is after the
famous picture OF Cannon, and represents
the reception OF the ''Conqueror des ALE
mands" 1t is 4 brilliant work, containing
thirty different figures each in historic
costume. The colorins is rich, warm and
brilliant. The frame work of the curtain
itself is very attractive. 1t consists of two
square columns with Corinthian capitals,
the sides OF the panels being decorated with
panels of fancy work in high relief. Below
is the blazing line OF electric lights, and
above another line OF lights at the top
of the curtain.
The placing of the curtain completed
the view towards the proscenium and 1t
is particularly bright and striking. The
ceiling above the whole pit is composed of
three arches with blue ground crossed by
bands of brown. To the right and left of
the stage the walls are OF gold color, re-
lieved by two panels of blue. All OF the
ceilings are in light blue, and the decora-
tions are in shades OF gold.
From the progress made last night every
thing will be in readiness 1or tue PERFORM
ance tonight.
There was u rehearsal OF the music last
night from to 1890, which was heard
only by the workmen and rev friends ot
Manager Albaugh.
The W hole building was Illuminated so that
the view last night was pretty much that
which is to be presented tonight with the
exception that there viii be more OF the
detail in place.
The vestibule was cleared of all debris and
was seen for the first time last night in itS
true attractive guiso. The interior vestl-
bules were also cleared. giving fairly good
view of the handsome stairways to the upper
galleries.

Philadelphia, Sept. 29.-The increasing
ability of American manufacturers to COM
pete successfully in the markets OF the
old world has Just been demonstrated by the
Baldwin Locomotive Works, OF tins CITY,
whose managers are rejoicing in large
contract for engines for Russian railroads.
For many years the Baldwin people have
been able to sell their engines in Centra!and
Southern America, in Australia, IN Japan,
and in other distant countries, but they
have never been able to secure sure foot
hold in European countries where the
English type OF locomotive has Always Deen
preferred to the American.
This prejudice has at last, apparently,
been broken down. Contracts, Just re-
ceiyed by the Baldwin Works, call for
forty locomotives, twenty each for pas
senger and freight service. They are TO be
delivered with the least possible delay. ana
with the orders already on hand, will keep
the big Baldwin establishment busy for the
rest OF the year.

Fusion among the decent anti-Tammany
complished and the prospect, which twenty
four hours ago appeared gloomy to the
friends of respectable city government, IS
today encouraging. The republicans, state
democrats. coed government clubs and the
committee of fifty reformers have agreed
upon a ticket and an excise plank that are
said to be satisfactory to Oswald Often
dorfer the leader and adviser of the Ger
man-Amercan Reform Union, and the
present Indications are that Tammany
is confronted today by coalition
nearly es strong as that Of year
ago, when the old regime was wiped
out Of power by an overwhelming
majority. Fusion has been accomplished
with difficulty. The herculean task of mix
ing oil and water in the making of slate
composed of republicans and democrats has
been accomplished with less friction than
was anticipated, and all the strong anti
Tammany elements in New York have

Go Attend With the Work,

Everybody interested in the welfare OF
the national capital will surely rejoice over
the decision of the Supreme Court of the
District announced yesterday, which prac-
tica!ly establishes the title of the general
government to the Potomac flats. For
many years there has been litigation as to
the ownership of this extensive property
that has delayed public improvements OF
the most necessary character and that have
in themselves created most of the value
that the land that was once morass now
possesses. Public enterprise has converted
it from an abandoned swamp into a site
for one of the most beautiful parks in the
country. The case will now in all likeli-
hood go to the Supreme Court of the United
States, where 10 doubt the title of the
government will be incontrovertibly es-
tabiished. Congress ought even now tc
have no hesitation about making appropria.
tons of sufficient size to complete the work
without delay. as there Is practically nc
chance for reversal of the careful judg.
ment of the lower court by the higher tri-
bunal.

Visitors Who Arc Welcome.

The Knights Of the Golden Eagle of
America have shown good taste and judg-
ment by selecting Washington as the place
for their annual meeting. Coming as they
do from many parts of the country, they
but exhibit the natural tendency of all
Americans to visit the national capital at
least once in their lifetime, and 1t is to be
hoped that before many seasons have
passed their comparative recollection of
the advantages of Washington as a con-
vention city will cause them to choose it
as permanent meeting place. There is a
strong tendency among many of the ma
tional bodies to adopt this course, which is
becoming more and more practical as the
cost of transportation becomes cheaper.
The Knights of the Golden Eagle are fine
representatives of that element of c.ti-
zenship that seeks in such organization the
best means of mutual aid. There are many
of these societies now in existence that
have undoubtedly cone much to ameiorate
the condition of unfortunate ones. and the
fact that they adopt military organization
and uniforms shows that the martial spirit
is inherent and strong in the people of this
country and must be accepted as sign of
the patriotism that sways the average
heart

Too Much Zeal.

There was case In the Police Court yes
terday that deserves more than passing at
tention. woman had been brought into
a station house in the middle of the night
with an infant in her arms on the charge
of being drunk and disorderly. She was
compelled to wait in the station until morn
iEg. when she was taken to the Police
Court and placed in the unspeakably re-
voting quarters that are provided for the
prisoners there. When the case came tc
trial 1t was found beyond question that
she was the victim of excessive zeal on the
part of the policeman who arrested her and
that she was an injured rather than an
offensive PERSON. Such a case warrants
prompt action by the authorities. for it is
bad enough when a woman is wrongly ar
rested. but doubly so when her helpless in
FAINT is brought into contact with the vile
conditions of police court cell.
