Assuming for IN the New
York Times is correct nsay that our
gold has gone ''to pay for American
securities which foreign holders are not
inclined to keep, were, in plain English,
afraid TO keep" let us answer the ques-
ton "yyhy were they afraidf"
English capital was not afraid of
American securities in 1892. There
was nothing the matter with American
affairs during the two previous years,
or while the Mckinley tariff was IN
effect without any certain knowledge
that it would be overthrown, so 'Why
were they afraid?'
The weakening OF the value of Amer
lean securities became noticeable to-
ward the end of 1892 and Immediately
after the election to Congress of ma
iority of the party that is pledged to
free trade. the election of whom, by

LAWMAKING AT ALBANY.

Questions Which Are LiEaIy to Postpone
 Final Adjournme ent-Poifce Reorganiza-
 ton and Greater New York Bills.
 Albany May 18-The action of Mayor Strong in disapproving of the Aims worth supplemental police bill, designed to Increase the powers of superintend- ent Byrnes, adds another element of uncertainty to the legislative situation. Any effort of the Platt managers to pass 1t over the veto of the mayor will serve to renew the factional troubles which have brought Into disrepute the work of the session Lieutenant Gov ernor Saxton has received a letter from l Police Commissioner Roosevelt express ing the hope that the bill will not be passed over the mayors veto Besides this matter, the complications engender- ed by the struggles over the Lexow po- | lice reorganization bill and the Greater New York bill are by no means straight ened out.
 | The Platt men In both houses are anxious to bring about sine die adjourn ment this week. Speaker Fish and his
  lpecially inslstent on this point. The senate majority is not willing to commit | itself on the subject until the outlook in that body Is more reassuring. With three sessions daily and no unusual frlc- tion in the consideration of pending business, it may be possible to dispose of the more important matters demand Ing attention by next Saturday. There seems to be good reason, however, for anticipating stormy times in the senate, in which event final adjournment Is like ly to go over until another week
 The outlook is now favorable to the passage of the Greater New York bill with a referendum clause embodied in It's provisions. The Brooklyn represent atives are practically a unit In support of the measure in that form The friends of the original bill are much averse to accepting the referendum amendment, but will yield to the inevitable probably rather than get no legislation at all on the subject.
 The senate tomorrow or on Wednes- day win pass the amended Raines blan- ket ballot bill, and the assenn'bly's ap- proval Is also assured The friends of the measure are sure that Governor Morton will sign 1t.
 Senator Lexow's bill in the interests of the spoils-hunters, to add two mem- bers to the state commission in lunacy. is encountering so much opposition that its sponsor will hardly undertake to press 1t.
 The report of the assembly sub-com- mittee on the inefTiciency and extrava- gance of the methods prevailing in the of the capitol building is not received complacently by the re- publican politicians. The recommenda- tlon for reducing expenditures and lop- ping off some of the useless employees | now on duty is viewed with marked l by Superintendent of Pub | lie Buildings Easton. He has only just ! become familiar with the duties of his I new position, and now that he has suc- oeeded in getting the legislature to in- | crease his salary from $9500 to $5000, | he was preparing to find places for as many of the Faithful" as his 'pulI' on | the state treasury would permit.

 It was also voted to concur with the board of aldermen in ordering the re- moval of the public uripal on Chapel street before June l.
 The councilmen also, in leoncurrence with the board of aldermen, unanimous ly adopted the bill passed by the board of aldermen and known as senate bill No. 65, an act authorizing the city of New Haven to issue street pavement bonds.
 The report of the committee on con- ference in reference to the speed and equipmnt of electric cars was read and provoked considerable discussion. Fin ally all the provisions were passed with the exception of the matter of lenders. Councilman Ullman declared that two members of the committee were so con- nected with street railway companies as to be unable to do their duty without favoring the railroad companies. The conference committee reported in favor of referring the matter of lenders to the committee on ordinances. After con- siderable discussion it was discovered that no quorum was present and the board adjourned until next Monday night without taking any action on the matter

NORTH HAVEN.

North Haven. May 19.-The lecture upon ballooning In Memorial hall this evening by Captain D. s. Thomas was an event in the history of this town. It was in aid of the Veteran Soldiers as- sociation, and doubtless the interest was increased somewhat by the fact that the speaker is himself a Grand Army man, with brilliant record as an officer in the Twenty-seventh Connecticut VoIun- teers during the War of the Rebellion
 It is difficult to recall an entertainment of any kind in North Haven where some one has not walked out before It's close. Tonight not a person in the audience moved so interested did they become in catching every word. Captain Thomas gave no blood-curdling incidents of his adventures. On the contrary, his ad- dress was a plain, simple resume of his experience as an amateur bafloonist, with none of the thrilling adventures and hairbreadth escapes which go to make up the record of men who follow balloonfng as a business. At the close many in the audience congratulated the speaker, and a general hand-shaking seemed in order. Quite number were present from New Haven, among them MT. BunneH, the theatrical manager

ElectroIosis.

WorlSmen employed by the Southern New England Telephone company made an important discovery at the corner of State and Chapel streets yes- terday. The men were at work in the conduit, which contains the telegraph and telephone cables. It was discov- cred that heavy electric current es- caping from the tracks of the Fair Ha- ven and Westville road had begun the work of destroying the telephone cables by the process of electrolosis.
 The heavy lead pipe which covers this cable was found to have been nearly eaten through in several places. It is believed that all the telephone cables in the center of the city are subjected to the process, and will sooner or later be spoiled.
 The telephone men grounded the cables by means of heavy copper wire. which is the only thing they can do to protect them. The police signal wires in the oonduits are also badly affected by electrolosis

FRIENDSHIP IS RESTORED
AN IMPERIAL DECREE TO THAT
 EFFECT ISSUED FROM TOKYO.

China Has Shown Her Regret for the
 Breach Which Was Made in the Friendly Relntions-Ihere Are No Desires to Raj e Fresh Troubles Between the Two Coun- tries.
 London, May 13.-A Tolxio dispatch says an imperial decree has been is- sued setting forth that the envoys of Japan and China have been completed Japan and China have completed Ing a treaty of peace between the two 1 countries. fhe decree after stating the l conditions of peace agreed upon says that Russia, Germany and France ad- vlsed Japan that the permanent reten- tion by her of the Liao Tung peninsula would not conduce to lasting peace in the orient and urged the retrocessionI of that territory to China. The decree then continues:
 We have always been anxious to establish and maintain peace. Our ob- ject in the recent war was to found an enduring peace. We believe that Rus sia, France and Germany are imbued with the same feeling. Therefore we will not insist upon the retention of the Liao Tung peninsula, We do not desire to raise fresh trouble, increasing the calamities of our people, or to ob- struct the expansion of our country by deterring restoration of the blessings of peace China has shown regret for her breach of friendship, thus justify ing before the world Japan's action.
 Japan will comply with the desires of Russia, Fra9ce and Germany. The manner in which the Iiao Tung penin- sula will be restored to China will be arranged by China and Japan.
 Now that the treaty of peace has been duly ratified and the notifications exchanged our former friendship with China is restored, end the ties attaching us to neutral countries are made closer. Let our officials and people keep this steadily in view"
 The dispatch adds that Admiral Ito has been appointed chief of the navy department f1r room OF Admiral Wis., count Kabayama Sukenori, who has been selected to so to Formosa to for mally annex the island, of which he will be viceroy.
 Admiral Kabayama will be accom- panied by MizuDo Jun, chief secre- tary of the lower house of the Japanese diet, who has been appointed head of the civil administration of Formosa.
 A Madrid dispatch says 1t is reported Spain has sent a note to Russia, France and Germany contending that as the Japanese did not hold Formosa when the treaty of peace was signed their right to occupy the island in face of the opposition of it's inhabitants is dis- putable, and is a suitable pretext for further intervention.

HARvARD WAs DEEEATED.
The Game Was Model One Up to the
 Seventh Inning.

Seventh Inning.
 Philadelphia, May 13.-Pennsylvania defeated Harvard to-day in a game which was model up to the seventh inning. The big grand stand on Frank lin field could not have accommodated any more people, the attendance on a conservative estimate being somewhere between 4,000 and 5000. Pennsylvania had rather the better of the opening innings, securing more hits and getting a number of men on bases, but could not score. The visitors were the first to break the ice, Adams scoring a run in the sixth. Neither side played clean ball after that, the Harvard men mak- ing some bad errors, which allowed Pennsylvania hits to count for runs. Captain Whitmore, at short, was the chief offender.
 Tn the last half of the ninth Har- yard earned runs on two hits for four bases each. Reuning had his hand badly hurt on a pickup in the ninth inning. and foolishly continued to play Schoenhut had to ease up and as a consequence was hit hard for the first time during the game. In every re- speot Schoenhut pitched a fine game, besides scoring the first run for the home team, with a slashing two-baser. Payne struck out nine men and barring his wildness pitched very strong ball. The score:
