Mayor Strong expresses himself in
favor of allowing the New York liquor
shops to open on Sunday afternoon-not
because, we imagine. he is personally in
favor of it, but because he believes. it
will be practically impossible in the long
run to keep the shops closed, and there
will be the double decentralization OF
omen shops and openly violated law.

The rumor that President Debs of the
American Railway Union is organizing
another strike is not improbable, but ii
would seem that the members of the
union after their experience with Debs
year ago would be slow to follow his
leadership, for he showed himself rather
more incompetent to manage a strike
than the average labor leader.

1t is announced that the transportation
of western perishable fruits is to be any
thing but monopoly during the coming
season. The business has been held
almost exclusively in the hands OF the
refrigerator companies, which have run a
system of refrigerator cars from the Pacific
coast to Chicago and thence through to the
eastern cities. Naturally this traffic has
grown from small beginnings to larger pro-
portions, and the profits have finally be-
come so attractive that other companies,
though not able to infringe upon the patents
covering the refrigerator system, have de-
cided to make an effort to secure part of
the trade. The Southern Pacific, in con-
junction with the Union Pacific and the
Chicago and Northwestern railroads, have
ordered between 1900 and 1900 ventilator
cars to be run in competition with the re-
frigerator system of the established compa-
MES. 1t cannot be claimed that the ventila-
tor cars will preserve green fruit for as long
a time as the refrigerator cars, but to offset
this disadvantage a quicker time of transit
will be adopted, and the shipper will thus be
insured against loss by delays and conse-
quent damage to the fruit. During the
busy season trains made up of ventilator
cars will be run daily, and it is expected
that they will be able to deliver in good
condition everything except the most
perishable fruits, with the cost of transpor-
tation much less than under the refrigerator
system

Ship Canals.

The event of the week has been the for
NAL opening of the great ship canal con-
Meeting the North Sea with the Baltic.
The festivities began with banquet We'd
nesday at Hamburg, and the German em-
perors squadron sailed through the new
waterway and was welcomed at Kiel by
war fleets representing the principal navies
of the world. This country was represent
ed by the cruisers New York, Marblehead,
San Francisco and Columbia. England
sent four of her largest battleships, three
cruisers and two torpedo boats; France
one battleship and two cruisers; Russia,
one battleship, an armored cruiser and an
armored gunboat. Germany made the
m ost imposing display, including from 30
to 40 war vessels of all classes, while 9th
er nations swelled the grand total to nearly
100. 1t was the finest parade of war ships
of different nations likely to take place
during the present century.
The participation of four of the crack
cruisers of our new navy gave to the pro
ceedings at Kiel an interest in this country
which they would not otherwise have
aroused, although the canal is of world
wide commercial importance. We are as
sured that in the maneuvres of the com
bined parading fleet, the American squad
ron compelled the admiration of the criti
cal experts of the European navies.
The canal itself is a splendid example o
the thoroughness, perseverance, punctuali
ty and honesty which distinguish the Ger
man character. The estimated cost of tn,
work was $37, 100000, and it was complet
ed within the estimate and within the tim
fixed for its completion. A short Gu
across the peninsula of Schleswig- H olsteil
and Jutland to connect the Baltic and tn
North Sea was first mooted 500 years ago
and 100 years ago a canal was construct

The bridemaid's dress was also of French
goods, trimmed with violets and lace in
sertion.
Only relatives and immediate friends
were present at the reception, which was
held at the Elliot street home of the brides
father, Joseph Fenton. An interesting
feature of the reception was the singing by
the bride, p. M. Baker, Frank Pecord and
others. A full course dinner was served
at II o'clock to 70 persons. Mr.. and Mrs.
Sullivan left on the 2:10 train north, for a
wedding journey of two weeks, during
which they will visit Montreal and other
places, returning TO Windsor to make their
home. There was not only "a fusillade of
rice at their departure, but a dozen tor
pedoes were placed upon the rails to ex-
plode as the train left the station. As Mr..
and Mrs Sullivan passed through Windsor
they were greeted by two discharges of
cannon.
There were many wedding gifts, includ-
ing those from the church choir, the brides
shopmates, and the firm by whom she has
been employed.

1t is related in explanation of Russia s
guarantee of the $4,000, 900 loan to China
that Russia really backed China during the
late war, and that it is being reimbursed
in roundabout way through this loan,
which it guarantees. The East is still in
a turmoil, and if Russia should be found
dealing secretly with China, France and
Germany may withdraw their support, in
which case Japan would, doubtless, feel
encouraged to resist the encroachments of
the Russian bear.

Hill Married Last Evening.
A pretty home wedding was that last
evening at the residence of Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles G. Endlich on Prospect street when
Miss Katharine Hill became the wife of
their only son, Carl G. Endlich. The par
lor and hall were tastefully decorated with
laurel, ferns and cut flowers. In the par
lor ropes of laurel extended from the cor
ners to.the centre of the room, where they
sustained wedding bell of laurel and flow
ers. Beneath this bell the marriage SER
vice, with ring, was performed by Rev.
Hal. d. Maxwell. Miss Minnie Holzapfel
was brdemaid, William A. Shumway best
man, and Walter S. Pratt and Fred Ellis
ushers. The bride wore a gown of tan
colored silk with trimmings of lace and
ribbon, and carried a bouquet of roses.
The bridemaid wore white silk and carried
roses. After the ceremony the young
couple received the congratulations and
good wishes of the 70 or 100 0guests. Num-

were displayed in one of the rooms. Dur
ing the evening refreshments were served.
When the couple left for their new home at

All New York celebrated on Monday the
first real union of the waters of the Hud
son river and Long Island Sound. The
press dispatches say that "Amid the BOOM
ing of cannon from two of Uncle Sans
warships, the screeching of whistles from
river craft, and the cheers of thousands of
spectators, a tlotilla of nearly 200 vessels
entered the Harlem ship canal and new
waterway was thrown open to commerce"
In addition to the festivities on the water
there was a large land parade, banquet
and grand display of fireworks. No sim
liar event has been so elaborately celebrat-
ed since the Erie canal was opened in 1925.
The Harlem ship canal was projected 20
years ago, but no active work was done
until the last five years. Since then the
government has blasted wide cut through
a hill of rock, and dredged miles of mud,
in order to change a creek two feet in depth
and the Harlem river into waterway suit
able for light-draft vessels from the Hud-
son river to Long Island Sound. The TO-
tai length of the canal is six miles. The
mean depth of the channel is nine feet,
and the width 80 feet. The cost of the
canal is S2,5OO,OOO, and it is proposed
eventually to widen it to $50 feet and deep
en- it to Is feet.
Heretofore all the water craft that came
down the Hudson river, destined for Long
Island Sound, have been obliged to go
clear around the city and up East river, a
distance of 80 miles. The improvement
adds IA miles of dock room to the city.
The tonnage of the Harlem already
amounts to S2O,0OO,OO0 a year, and this
will undoubtedly be immensely increased
by the opening of the canal. The i'm
provement will hasten the already rapid
development of the upper part of New
York The Harlem may have almost as
important commerce as the North and
East rivers. The work, begun in 1886, is
still incomplete, as the improvement of the
river is to be carried on as rapidly as Con-
gress will appropriate the money. Much of
! the canal boat traffic will be diverted to the
canal, which is really a connecting link be-
tween the great lakes and Long Island
Sound.

What of the canal of the future? That
it is to be one of the potent factors in the
worlds future development there is no
doubt. One great project which is likely
to be carried out in the next 25 years, is a
aterway across Nicaragua, joining the
A tlantic and Pacific oceans, and saving to
IN aritime commerce a journey of thousands
of miles around Cape Horn. Japan and
China are only beginning to feel the trend
of modern civilization, but the Orient and
the western coast of this country will play
an important part in the history of the
future, and nothing will mean so much to
these sections as the Nicaragua canal.
OF equal Importance with the Nicaragua
canal will be passage way for ocean YES
sells to as far distant shores as Wisconsin
and Minnesota, via the St. Lawrence, ca
nal and the great lakes. When the great
lakes are connected with the Atlantic it will
be only natural TO seek a waterway from
the st. Lawrence to the Hudson, and it is
not too much to expect that people now
living will see ocean vessels loading and
discharging cargoes on the western border
of our own state.

ed connecting the Elder river with the Bal
tic, but it was available only for small yes
sells and impossible for war vessels. Mill
tary and commercial considerations de-
manded a more commodious waterway be-
tween the two seas, and the opening of the
canal will remain one of the greatest tro-
phies of the reign of the present emperor
Such an enterprise was provided for by the
farsighted Bismarck 80 years ago in the
terms of settlement of the Schleswig- Hol-
stein controversy, which reserved territory
for the canal, but the route finally fixed
upon was adopted in 1856 by the German
government.
The military Importance of the project
is evident from the fact that the largest
vessels of the German navy can sail from
sea to sea by the new canal in one-tenth of
the time at present required to sail around
the peninsula. Military exigencies, rather
than commercial advantages, no doubt
fastened the construction, but whatever
may have been the primary motive of the
government, the commercial value of the

the canal at the water-surface is about 200
feet, sufficiently wide to permit the pass
ing of the largest merchant ships,a and there
are frequent bays along the route where
the largest iron-clads can pass each other
freely. There are only two locks, and
these will permit nine sailing vessels of or
dinary size to enter the canal together with
slight delay. The canal is 81 miles long,
and it will be illuminated at night by cleo
tricity throughout its entire length. A
vessel sailing from Hamburg can reach the
Baltic through the canal with saving Of
425 miles and 45 hours over the old sea
route, and vessel from London can save
23S miles and % hours. The tonnage
which it is expected will use the waterway
in year is estimated at 100000
