RAILROAD REORG4NIZ4TIONS.

During the last few days plans for reorganizing
two Of the important railway systems or the
country have been promulgated to the pubic
and are now under discussion in financial cir
cles The Erie reorganization plan as made pub
lie contains an apparently full disclosure OF the
phvsical and financial condition Of that exten-
slye property, with complete details Of its earn
ings. treasury assets, outstanding Obligations the
several classes Of its securities and their rela-
tions 10 each other with what seem TO be rea-
sonable estimates of earning capacity and the
possibilities of the future. 1t has been noted
that this announcement, made over the names
Of persons having the confidence Of capitalists
and investors on botn sides Of the water, mas
had somewhat inspirting effect upon the mar
kets for railroad securities, the Improvement in
which has been marked and significant. The
renewal Of confidence in this regard is most
encouraging sign For it is not to be denied that
dstrust of the financial administration of our
great railroad systems has had much TO do with
the long continued business depression and hnan
c,,I distress. 1t would be very unfortunate il
ANYTHING should happen in the course Of other
reorcanizations TO impair public confidence or

that was to be done True. It contained many

under the law, bc turned out so long as there
was work for them to do So the faithful
watched and waited, and grew leaner day by
day.
Not many weeks ago there was need for
rreat lot Of work 10 be done about the Brooklyn n
ward. A big new gateway was TO be construct
ed. and the fences, buildings and grounds were
generally to be overhauled. On the ships there
was little or nothing to do. There was oppor-
tunity. then for the workmen In the yard 10 no
set AT these things and thus kept busy But the
mowers that be decided otherwise. The prin-
cipal work was let out to outside contractors.
That left the Navy Yard force with nothing TO
do. Since the men were idle, they could be s'is-
ncnded. and accordingly they were: especially
Republicans and veterans, to the great hardship
OF many.
Now all on a sudden, the powers that be dis
cover that there is a great lot Of work to be done.
The force must be increased. A lot Of new men
must be taken on at once. "Adeste fdeles' Is

WHAT Ais THE NAV(f

Announcements of extraordinary activity in
the Navy Department are usually ominous Of
trouble. They hint at strained diplomatic rela
tions. at plans for demonstration in foreign
waters, at possibilities Of an impending foreign
war Coming at a time Of profound peace, they
excite curiosity. What Is the cause OF them?
Queen Lii has not again become rampagcous
The seals Of Behring Sea have been killed Of
There is already an ample force on the Florida
coast TO prove the Governments ardent sympa-
thy with the cause Of Spanish tyranny in Cuba
which our Minister TO Spain is said to have ex-
pressed. Matters in China are growing quiet
Great Britain Is making no hostile dcmonstra-
tion against us, nor have we heard that the
Swiss Navy has been put in battle array. Why
then. this fcversh display OF energy at the Navy
Yard, this desperate zeal TO get every ship in
fighting trim and pipe all hands TO quarters? !?
The explanation, we fancy. Is to be found at
home and not abroad. Not foreign complica-
tons. but the cxigcncies Of domestic politics call
for this unwontcd increase of zeal For two
years past the navy yards, especially the great
one In Brooklyn have been watched with long
ing eyes by myriads Of the faithful, who wished
to enter into the promised land at the best cur
rent wages. But there was q difficulty The

IN AND ABOUT CUBA

Somebody has been shipping great lot Of
arms TO the Cuban patriots. single cargo is
said to have contained field cannons, how
itzers. 3 600 rifles and 100000 rounds of ammuni-
ton. All thes. things were safely landed and
delivered 70 the revolutionists. 1t is not at all
surprising; nor will it be surprising If many
more such cargoes are sent TO the "ever-fa!thful
isle" The United States Minister 10 Spain is
reported TO have said that the sympathies OF this
Government are With the Spanards. That is
probably tru'. But the sympathies OF many
Americans are with the revolutonists. who are
striving to THROW aff a monarchica tyranny and
establish free republic There are, moreover,
plenty Of Americans ready 10 sell munitions OF
war to the Cubans, and 10 ship the same south
ward Nor is there any reason why they SHOULD
not Trade In rifles and cartridges Is just as
lawful as trade III soap and sugar. If, as the
Spanish Government insists. there is no civil
war in Cuba. certainly there Is no reason why
commerce with that island should be suspended.
If there is war there. as news reports and the
conduct Of the Spanish Government seem TO in
dcate, and II the revolu;onlsis are belligercnts.
there is no reason In the world why any one
should hesitate to trade with those belligerents.
provided, Of course. he is willing to run the risk
of capture by the other side. In either case this
Government Is bameless Nobody can accuse
il Of violation Of the neutrality laws.
Another small army was shipped from Spain

present IL Is said. Just how many that makes

must be about $1,000. Probably not more than

Az APCTUEyT FROM PENNSYLVANIA.

AN ARGUMENT FROu FCNNoiH ~ h-''''
There Is one feature Of the great contest Tor
control Of the party machinery In pennsylvania
that should NOT be overlooked by the advocates
Of n larger Republican Committee in this STATE.
This is the size Of the party committee IN REM
syIyania. 1t consists Of no less than 100 mem
bers-,vro from each Senate district and twelve
members-at.large appointed by the chairman
nrocjsev rho number that the Blss-Porter Com
mittee are advocating for New-York State, ana
rrocisey the number that the opponents or their
man characterize as ridiculous and absurd
The controlling spirit of the Republican poll
tics in PENNSYLVANIA Is Matthew Stanley quay
Whatever doubts were entertained on THIS point
a week ago have been disslpated by the actlon
of tho Harrisburg Convention Mr.. quay IS not
only tho acknowledged leader OF the keystone
Ronublicons but he is conceded on all sides to
no ono of the shrewdest politicians in the United
stotos Tho PENNSYLVANIA State Committee was
oro,nized nv him. He did not think the propo-
s,,,or that II should consist Of $50 members lab
surd, or ridiculous" or he would not have car
ried it out, because 1t was in his power 10 MAKE
rho committee as large or as small as he deemed
best and expedient.
II docs not follow that the Bliss Porter plan
of having the committee in this State consist
Of one member from each Assembly district IS
tbe best. but in the light OF the pennsylvania
example We submit that the CHARACTERIZATION OF
II rs ridiculous or absurd Is hardly IN Keep
ing with the requirements of sound speech or
nolitcal sense. Matthew Stanley Quay may be
a hold had man, but no one has ever referred
70 his performances in practical politics as par
ticularly foolish

Despite opposition in certain quarters, there

That Mr. Platt is in favor Of this course is evi-
dent from the information obtained on good
authority by ouI Albany correspondent. as set
forth in a letter printed in another column. The
opposition comes from Lou Payn, Superin-
tendent Aldridge and exCoector Hendrix, who
would like TO Controller Roberts and Attor-

these officials, however have made admirable

that there would be an uproar in the party If he

The Defender won again yesterday-of course.
II was the last Of the trial races, in all OF which
the superiority of the new yacht has been shown
beyond peradv venture. To be sure. the first race
was awarded to the vigilant, but not because she
was the faster boat. Yesterdays race was a
beat Of ten miles TO windward, and then run
home before the wind. In the windward work
the Defender gained about 51a minutes Oh the
yjglant; at the finish she was minutes II Sec
onds ahead the Vigilant having gained a few
seconds in running free. But there is some rea'
son to believe, or at least TO suspect, that the
Defender has not thus far done her best, reserv'
ing that until she tries conclusions with the
valkyrie; so more than one surprise may be In
store when the international races are sailed
