STREETCAR LINES THAT STEAL.

When the student OF municipal affairs finds
ont what immense profits have been maze Dy
street railway companies which have not made
adeauate payments for the immensely valuable
franchises which they possess, he naturally De-
comes impatient with the blunders and crimes
of city governments which have given away
franchises OF enormous value without providing
that the citizens shall receive proper compensa-
tion through the public treasury for the use OF
the streets The capitalization Of the street rail
wavs Of the United States runs far up into the
hundreds OF millions. In few cases have the
cities I'm which these street railroads are situ-
sted received what they ought to have received
in compensation from the companies. for-
tentous fortunes have been accumulated py cap

in these days that most OF the streetcar cOin-
panies are continually striving to punder the

inequalities out Of money which ought TO De

yated railroads are paying per cent every year

manner In which they have been fieeced ana
robbed by the streetcar lines. In almost every
important city OF the Union gigantic comoiha-
tions OF rapacous capitalists have been maze
with the purpose Of increasing the profits or the
streetcar lines and Of diminishing the sums
which the various cities obtain from the corpora

sources Of serious damage and injury to the
communities in which they exist Unless some
check is put to such schemes by rigorous legis-
lation. the streetcar lines Of all our principal
cities will be captured by few corporations

danger to the various communities. The outlook
in these things Is black.

4 SEASON or RELIGIOUS GATHERINGS.

The number Of religious gatherings that have
been held during the present month has been
unusually large Among them may be men
toned the Protestant Episcopal General COnven-
tion. the National Congregational Council, the
Lutheran General Council, the Presbyterian Sy-
mods at Butler. Penn; w-Brunswick, n. j..
and Binghamton, ~ Y. the American Board

grcss the New-York Branch OF the Womans FOR
cicn Missionary Society. the Long Island Baptist
Association. Reformed Episcopal Convention
Of the New-York and Philadelphia churches. the
Methodist Protestant Conference and the Wom-

the month OF September many Methodist Episco-
nal Conferences met and took action on the
ouestion of admitting women as delegates to the
General Conference Other religious gatherings
obout TO be held are the National Conference OF
Unitarian Churches in Washington tomorrow,

Mer,den, Conn. October 23, and the Baptist Con-

most Of these gatherings have an Immediate in

that Christianity is still a vital and active force

also the various philanthropic activities OF the
day. outside the churches. that are distinctly re-
ligious II not Christian in spirit, 1t will be seen
how large a segment Of American life Is DOM
mated by the spirit and sanctions OF religion.
Doubtless the age is putting something OF its
own thought into the religious concept, just as
every preceding age has done. But there Is no
evidence TO show that religion Itself Is losing its
hold on the conscience OF man.
The Episcopal General Convention at Min
neapolis after spending two weeks In frultless
debate on Its proposed new Constitution. has
decided, as was foretold In these columns to
postpone the whole matter to the next Conven.

due to the lay deputies, and IL another illustra-

was noteworthy for the breadth and catholicty
OF its discussions and put forth a basis Of Chris

that led to Its creation thirty years ago. 1t de.
