The Rock Creek Park commission will sus-
pend for a time their proceedings for the
assessments of benefits to adjoining lands By
the location and Improvements OF the park.
Suit was fled yesterday to enjoin their ac-
ton.
Pursuant TO their adjournment two weeks
ago the commission met yesterday. Gen.
Casey, Mr.. Ross Perry, and Commissioner
Powell were present. Gen. Casey said ths
other members doubtless understood thai
the commission was in the haLds of the law
and therefore failed to attend
It had been reported that an Injunction
had been issued. Owing ITO the circumstances
he adjourned the meeting to p. N, Feb
ruary 9, when he hoped to see all interested.
After the adjournment the three commission
ers present held a meeting behind closed
doors to consider how they should meet the
suit for injunction.
The bill was filed by Mrs Mary Van Ris-
wick and others. heirs OF the late John Van
Riswiek- 1t states that they owned two par
GELS OF land, 137 acres, at first included in
the survey intended TO be set apart for the
park. When the commissioners found the
cost was over 81, 200, 900 they made another
survey, reducing the amount of land
INCLUDED N THE PARK.
They left out all the Van Riswick land, but
later asked the heirs to give them tract Of
ten acres along the creek bank; also the
heirs, upon special request of the commits
sioners year ago, sold TO them for the park
tract OF fourteen acres for s., ,62S.
The commissioners proceeded 10 establish
the park and turned It over TO the permanent
| commission. Their duties are completed,
/ but they nevertheless proposed. under their
Interpretation OF section Of the park act,
to make owners Of adjacent property pay
I special benefit assessments. This was re-
sisted.
The bill says the proposed assessments are
/ unconstitutional in that they propose either
| TO assess the local property for na-
| tiOnal park improvement or the nation for a
/ local park, either being repuSnant to the Con-
/ stitution. and because the authority which
| the special benefits clause Of the act seeks 10
confer is inconsistent with section s. article
OF the Constitution.

MONTHLY LABOR BULLETINS.
If Necessary, a Bill Authorizing Their

III necessary, Bill Authorizing ineH
Issue VIII Be introduced.
Chairman McGann, of the House Labor
Committee. has proposed to Labor Commis-
sioner Wright plan for the issuance of
monthly labor bulletins by the bureau which
meets with general approval among the men,
bers to whom it has been broached. Much
valuable information 10 laborinS men, econ
omists, and the world at large is collected by
the bureau, but under the present system it is
given to the public only in the annual reports
and much of it becomes comparatively use
less before it is published.
Mr.. McGann suggests that the bureau be-
gin the publication of bi-monthly reports Of
its work, and if they are well received,
monthly reports. The law authorizes the
issue of the annual and special reports, and
it is thought the monthly bulletins could be
printed under the authority for special re-
ports II not, a bill will be introduced to
confer the necessary authority on the COM
missioner.
No plans have been made for the distribu-
tion of the bulletins, but plan may be de-
cide1 upon by which a certain number will
be given the bureau for distribution TO public
libraries and other institutions, and others
placed to the credit Of the Congressman and
sent to those among their constituents whom
they may designate.

AUSTRIA AND THE SUGAR TAX

Stringent Retaliation VIII Be Practiced If
the Clause Is Not Repealed
The new Austrian minister, Mr. Hengel-
muller, is a frequent visitor at The State De-
partment looking for information res pecting
the prospects OF repeal of the special tax on
bounty sugar.
Although the formal note in which he pre-
sented the case of his government was
couched in the most friendly terms, there is
reason TO believe that he has given the State
Department to understand that if some ac-
ton in the line of an abatement of the tax is
not had within short time, Austria will
adopt measure of retaliation that will ex-
coed in severity anything that has been done
by Germany or any Of the other European
powers.
This information has been communicated
to certain Senators and members who have
undertaken to forward the repeal bill in Or
der to stimulate them il their purpose.

The fact that George Westinghouse. lr.,
president of the Westinghouse Electrical
Company, is reported rs giving the Man
haitian Elevated Railroad Company of New
York advice to wait while before intro
duoing electricity, Is worthy of comment
He admits giving the advice and says
that he did so because he expects marked
developments In the use of electricity as
motive power within the next few
months. This admission coupled with
tho business relations which have recently
been established between the Westlng
house Company and the Baldwin locomo-
tive works are significant, and indicate
that an electrical locomotive will shortly
be produced of which tho inventors expect
much.

reply "if that be treason, make the most

In the opinion of one theorist there Is
no longer need of constructing more theo-
rfes respecting the formation Of the phos-
phate beds Prof f. T. Cox, formerly
State geoiogist Of Indiana, has made a
long and careful study of the phosphate
beds in Florida, and he says that with the
evidence before us of causes now In action
that produced the immense deposits OF
guano on the islands off the rainless coast
Of Chill and Peru, the Islands Of the Carib-
bean sea, and elsewhere where the drop
pings Of numberess birds are converted
into guano, both pulverulent and rock
guano, 1t Is not necessary to construct
strange theories to account for the phos-
phate deposits in Florida. Unlike Peru,
the climate here was humid and washed
out of the guano the soluble salts, leaving
the insolube phosphate Of lime. The $50
lation of the deposits, their occurrence in
detached pockets of greater or less extent
as well as the conformabllity of the phos-
phate rock to the very jagged surface Of
the limestone on which Ii rests, all point
to the bird origin as guano.

The Silver Conventions.
IN. Y. Tribuue.)

With the most conservative desire not
to underrate the strength of silver fanati
cisn, it must be said that the Democratic
silver conventions, which are now being
held in western states, really disclose
nothing as respects the increase or de
crease of desire for free coinage They
are fairly well or fully attended, but that
was inevitable, for they are delegate con
vcntio~s, and men can be found in every
county who are willing to purchase no
toriety on the side most popular with their
political associates at the cost of attend.
ing convention. There have been In at
tendance the usual small army of chronic
agitators or cranks, and the usual larger
army of worn-out dcmagogues, the dis
carded refuse Of all political parties. But
all this casts no light whatever on the
growth or the decrease Of the silver senti-
ment.
The reason Is obvious, when Is is CON
sidered that only Democrats, and only free
coinage Democrats. are invited to attend
these conventions. Nobody else can par
ticipate, except as an intruder, and by vio-
lation of the decencies of public life.
