JUSTICE GAYNoR, of the Supreme Court
Of New York State, has rendered decision
90 the effectthat railway companies enjoying
public franchises must perform their obli-
cations to the public by running their cars
whenever it is physically possible for them
to do 30. The decision was made against
ths Brooklyn Heights Street Railway Co.,
which although given the protection of the
police and 600 soldiers, was not operating
its line, presumably because of its inability
to equip it with new men.
The decision is very important, as well
as q very just and wholesome one. 1t goes
to tho root of the whole subject of the rela-
iions and obligations existing between the
people and every such corporation. The
people are required to protect the Company
in the proper exercise of its franchise, and
this being done, the company must in turn
furnish the public with uninterrupted SER
vice, for If it fails to do this it is violating
one of the vital features of its original con-
tract with the people and the same time rem.
dering no return for the protection thus af
forded. The obligations are mutual and il
the company cannot successfully and safely
operate lis lines either becauseof inadequacy
OF numbers or ability of new employees, il
must continue the old ones in their places
until it is enabled safely and properly tc
dispense with them. The same law that for
bids strikers or anybody else from obstruct
ing or hindering such service, applies, under
this decision, with equal force and logic tt
the company and forbids it, also, from arbi
trarily depriving the public of its rights Of
continuous service.
The PRESS has repeatedly taken this iden
teal ground, and we are glad to be able tc
note the fact that one Justice at least hal
had the disposition to give this construction
TO the law bearing on such subjects. If the
decision is sustained, as it should be, it viii
result in necessarily settling every difference
between such companies and their employe
By arbitration, which is surely best for em
ployer, emplOye, and the public, and some
thing, moreover, that the latter has a righ
70 demand.

Special Message to CONGRESS-


President Cleveland has sent special
message to Congress, in which he succinctly
and torcibly reviews the financial situation
OF the country, and calls upon Congress to
adopt prompt measures for relief.
1t 10 one of the ablest documents he has
yet penned, and is patriotic and practical
He says with great truth and force: eve
may well remember that if we are threatened
with financial difficulties, all our people in
ly those who suffer will not receive the pro-
motion OF party interests as an excuse for
permitting our present troubles to advance
70 disastrous conclusion"
He says we have outstanding more than
100000 of Government notes for which
gold may be demanded, "and curiously
enough, the law requires that when present
Cd and in fact redeemed and paid in gold,
they shall be REIssUEDw thus furnishing
the same notes to do duty many times in
drawing gold from the Treasury reserve,
which reserve is absolutely essential to the
saHeiy OF our finances, and must in some way
be protected. That it cannot be SO protected
under the present system, is clearly appar-
snt. The President suggests that the Secre-
tAry OF the Treasury be authorized to issue
ponds Tor the purpose of procuring and
maintaining q sufficient gold reserve, and to
cancel Government notes. "We should be
relieved from the humiliating process of is
suing bonds to procure gold to be immedi-
Ately and repeatedly drawn out on these
obligations, for purposes not related to the
benefit of our Government or of our people,
He recommends that the bonds be issued
In denominations of $40 and $50, at pei
cent, to run fifty years, and that the Secre
tary Of the Treasury be permitted in his dis
eretion to receive on the sale of bonds the
legal tender and Treasury notes to be retired
and cancelled. He suggests that these bonds
could be deposited by National Banks as Sc
curity for circulation, and that such banks
should be allowed to issue circulation up Il
the face value of the bonds thus deposited
He advises that banks be not allowed to take
out circulating notes of less denomination!
than $40.
Another and very important feature of tht
message is that all duties shall be paid il
gold, while all other dues to the Government
may be paid in any other form of money.
The Plain Dealer well says that the state
ment OF the President that it has cost thu
Government SIC, 1885, ,25O up to January 1
1895, for interest on bonds issued to secure
gold to be held in the Treasury to redeem
the non.interest bearing Government notes
and that the annual charge for interest OF
these bonds is today $9,145, 600, shows HOY
expensive it is for the Government to be il
the banking business.
The plan of the President meets with hear
~ approval by the country, as it should.

''Now, comes the part that has astounded
the physicians. Rev. Mr.. Gondy, a clergy
man who visited me in my last hours, as he
supposed, told me of the marvellous cures

Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People I

THERE is more Catarrh in this section Of
the country than al other diseases put to-
gether, and until the last few years was sup
posed to be incurable. For great many
years doctors pronounced it local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced itincurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be- a constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by f. j.
Cheney Il Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only con-
stitutional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case it fails to
cure. Send for circulars and testimonials.

loops or fat rosettes. Jetted and
spangled ginps are frequently inter-
mixed with these ribbon garnitures,

ored velvet ribbons are used as
background for rich lace inser-

new round waists reappear in many
styles, box-plaited, slashed, with a
fancy yoke, or with a gimp of con-
trasting material, the lower part car
ried up above the bust in Vandyke
points edged with jet gimp or lace in
sertion. Plated waists have two box
plaits down the back starting from the
shoulders, where they are two inches
and half wide, tapering an inch mar
rover at the waist line.
Hundreds of chic little collects, or
capes, have blossomed out, made of
much of every color and kind of fab
ric, from serge to satin brocade, and
large number of the stylish spring cos
tunes have a cape to match. These
capes are all short and full, and are
much trimmed about the shoulders.
Crepons are more the rage than
ever, and the pretty colored linen
suits worn last summer will be more
fashionable than ever the coming sea-
son. White braiding or linen laces,
both wide and narrow, will be the
trimmings used for these costumes,
which will be adapted alike for city
or country wear. KATE DUNHAM.

cites, one with a gored front, with a
wide side gore much slanted to take
away all fullness at the top, with full
breadth in the back that can be plated
