has treated the Chicago Railway Strikes
and the Chino-Japanese War, and the
amount of light it was able to throw on
Korea, the instant attention was directed
to that little known country, are exam
pies of its almost boundless resources.

and corres pendent, has been sent to the
seat of war, and there joined by c. D.

NO FOUR YEARS FOR SNYDER.

Governor Lewelling Persuaded Not to Re-
appoint Him or Anyone Else.
A Populist politician who holds a state
house job and who generally knows what
is to be done and undone by the leaders
of his party said today: "Governor Lew
cling will not make a lot of appoint
ments to be confirmed by the senate be-
fore he retires from Office, as has been
suggested by some members of our party.
We don't want him to do anything which
would reflect on him or our party. 1t has
been proposed that he send in the name
of Judge Snider for confirmation as
superintendent of insurance for four
years more, but he won't do that We
don't want him to.
''The only names he will send to the
senate for confirmation will be those of
Walter n. Allen and \. NJ. Hinshaw as
members of the state board of charities
and a few regents of the various state
institutions who have been appointed
since the senate was in session and have
not been confirmed.
"These men who have already been
appointed should be and will be con-
tirmed. but aside from that Governor
LewelIing will not attempt to make any
appointments"

WILD CLAMOR GOES UP
Popullst Senators Besieged for the
Few Jobs
THEY HAVE AT THEIR DISPOSAL.

The Pressure Fully as Strong in the
senate as in the Republican House
Gimme Something" is still the
shout.
| The Populist members of the legisla-
ture are coming in rapidly and will be
ready for business early Monday morn
ing.
! Twenty out of the twenty-three Popu-
list members of the senate are already
here and they are besieged by a regular
army of party workers who want jobs IN
the senate during the session.
A member of the state central com
mittee said to a STATE JOURNAL reporter
this morning: There are about fifteen
applicants for every job in the senate,
from spittoon cleaner up to the best job
to be offered. 1t is disgraceful, but we
than our Republican friends are having
with the house appointments"
The twenty memb ers of the senate who
are here were in session all forenoon in
the office of the lieutenant governor and
they will go into regular caucus as soon
as the three absentees, Senators Smith of
Smith county, Cooke of Mitchell and
Helmick of Chautauqua arrive.
1t is expected that the regular senate
caucus will be held Monday morning in
the room of the senate ways and means
committee, and the Populist members of
the house will caucus at the same time in
the senate chamber.
Most of the Populist members of the
house are new men and the old party
leaders are not yet sure how they will
work, although there are few old timers
in the house who can be depended on.

UNDERWRITERS
BALTIMoRE'S NEW TUNNEL.
Trains on the Il. and o. to Run to New
York I'm -Four and Onc-HaIf Hours.

York In Four and One-Half Hours.
The Belt line railroad tunnel, one of the
most remarkable engineering feats of mod
ern times, which has been built under Bal
tiInore, from Camden station to Bayview
junction, on the Philadelphia division of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, a dis
lance of seven and a half miles, was for
mally opened for business yesterday. The
first train to make the trip under the new
schedule was the Royal Blue line express
No.51i Hereafter there will be no trans
ferring of passenger trains across the
Patapsco river.
The summer schedule, which will go into
effect on May L., will undertake to run
trains between New York and Washing
ton in four and a half hours; between
Philadelphia and Washington in two and
half hours.
The Belt line has been in course of con-
struction for nearly five years and has cost
100000 The tunnel proper is one of the
longest soft-earth tunnels ever driven, and
runs through the heart of the city, under
the bed of Howard street, one of the most
important thoroughfares, lined on either
side with large wholesale and retail bust
ness houses. The tunnel was constructed
with little or no damage to any of the
buildings.
Two new passenger stations will be built
by the Baltimore and Ohio Company along
the Belt line tracks; one, to take the place
of Camden station, will be at Lombard,
Liberty and Howard streets; the other
at the open cut in the northern part of the
city.

Trials at Indian Head.

There was ballistic trial at the Indian
Head proving grounds yesterday of an
eighteen-inch nickel-steel Harveyed plate,
representing 306 tons, about half of the side
armor for the battleship Oregon. The plate
was made by the Carnegie Company, and
the trial was a success. The first shot
from a twelye-inch gun, sent at velocity
of 1,465 feet per second, penetrated the
plate about seven inches and then smashed.
The second shot, with a velocity of 1,a28
feet, penetrated about the same distance
and broke up, but cracked the plate from
top to bottom on one side. So far the plate
behaved almost exactly the same as the
eighteen-inch Bethlehem plate tGed last
week, although the crack was not quite SO
wide The plate passed on this test. but to
determine further its powers of keeping
out shot, a thirteen-inch gun was brought
to bear upon the remainder, and a shot
was fired at it with velocity OF 1,Sl0 feet.
The result was crack about three inches
wide in the plate, but the shot was kept
out, which was regarded as highly salts
