for 800 coal cars, and the Toldeo and Ann
Arbor receivers expect to place a contract
for more than $50 freight cars very soon.
Nearly all of the New England roads are
in the market for new equipment. The
Maine Central has placed an order with
the Pullman company for fifteen vcsti-

company for nine coaches of similar pat
tern. The Southern Pacific company in
vites bids for eighteen first-class passenger
cars. Last week the force at the Wagner

Many thousands of tons Of new rails have

The extensive building of new lines by
traction companies in New York, New
Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania
has given very decided impetus to the
rail-making industry. The steel market
is soon to have the stimulating effect of
an order for 1000 tons of new rails from
the Erie railway. The receivers of that
company received authority from the
courts only few days ago to make the
purchase.

A committee of the Pasadena Medical
Society has reported that all dairies and
cattle should be subject to inspection, as
milk is a frequent source OF mischief.
They also recommend that all slaughter
houses and meat should be subject to in
spection and propose that the expense of
such inspection be betrayed by the i'm
position of a small tax on all cattle or milk
sold within the city. The propositions
are of vital importance and should be
needed by the authorities, not only of
Pasadena, but OF every city where this
sort of surveillance is lacking. There is
no more dangerous source of typhoid
epidemics than diseased or impure milk
and no precaution against this possibility
can be too expensive.

was apparently satisfactory to all the par
ties concerned, but when everything seemed
TO be in fair shape the commissioners on
the part of China declared that they could
not stipulate that the convention would
take effect without imperial ratification.
The foreign ambassadors at once came to
the conclusion that the commissioners were
merely attempting to create delay, so 1t
was determined to march against Pekin.
This was done, and after the city had been
captured the long-delayed convention of
peace was signed and treaty Publications
were exchanged. In no instance did emma
really gain anything by it's policy OF pro-
crastination. and it does not now appear
that there is Chinese advantage in the in
excusable conduct of the Chinese govern
ment in connection with negotiations which
Japan is willing to enter into provided there
can first he assurances of Chinese serious
ness in the matter. There is possibility of
foreign Intervention before Japan's guns
thunder at the gates of Pekin, and it may
be that China prefers such Intervention TO
acknowledging the military superiority of
nation that for years il has always re-
Sarded as extremely inferior. But it can
safely be asserted that intervention will
only come on terms to which the Japanese
government and people will subscribe. for
Japan is no longer toy for Europe; it is
now a power that will have to be consulted
when eastern matters are being considered.

The rumor that is said to be abroad in
Germany that horse-meat is being used in
the canned meats sent from America under
the name OF beef may throw some light
upon recent events that have tended to
destroy to a certain extent the commercial
relations between this country and certain
European ports. American beef has IN
fortunately received a setback as a staple
of export. and it is possible that mucn Of
the bad repute that has come to it may
have sprung from just such senseless re-
ports as this. Ii is quite impossible that a

carried on in Chicago of canning ard sell
ing horsemeat labeled as beef, could he
maintained any length of time without de-

great quantities of material, and such an
establishment would create a demand for
horsefiesh that could not avoid public
scrutiny. At the same time this rumor is
attracting some attention to the sanitary
value Of hOrsemeat as compared with beef
The Medical News says that probably the
horse is a safer source of meat food than
the OK or COW. "Of course" it continues
'the sale of one meat under pretense of
