No MONEY IN MEAT.

New York, July 1L-Philip D. Ar
mour. the wealthiest man in Chicago,
was a passenger on the Paris. To the
reporter he said before leaving. The
beef and pork packing industry Is still
in a very unsatisfactory condition. The
nublic has had an erroneous idea with
regard TO the business in which l am
interested. There has been no trust
formed to advance prices, nor to take
advantage of a mythical scarcity Of
cat+Ie tn corner the market. The cat
tie raisers are masters Of the situation.
They are holding heir cattle at such
figures as compel the packers to pay
unnroftable prices for stock, and in or
der to get out without any loss, we
have had to advance prices to the mar
ket men. The result is that there has
been no money in meat for a long
time"

Toledo, o., July 1.-THE death bene-
fit fund of the American Flint Glass
Workers Union was hit pretty hard last
year, the deaths reaching 79. The slow
ness with which assessments were paid
have caused the national officers some
trouble in paying claims. They have
no right to settle any death claim out
Of funds in the treasury, but must waiA
until all the assessments are paid be-
fore they can settle with the heirs. To
facilitate the payment Of claims the
convention will pass some additional
legislation.
Proposed legislation to secure uni
formity of local union laws has been
introduced. II provides for making
initiation fees, dues, cards and other
matters the same in all local unions.
The list Of new locals established
show that the union has made gains
from the ranks of non-union labor in
different sections, particularly the gas
belt. The organization Of two new To-
Gals in Philadelphia was done because
the membership in the other locals had
become so large that business could not
be transacted expeditiously.
There are no new developments in tho
United States Glass Company strike.
The officers decline to make any state
ments whatever at present. 1t is the
opinion of the delegates that the ques-
ton must be handled very delicately II
there is to be a settlement in the near
future.

MARITIME LAW,

The Alabama never fired upon a Federal merchant vessel until it had passed three miles from the ehore of a neutral country. Admiral Ssmmes was too good a seaman for that. An attack within the three- mile limit would have been a violation of the neutrality of nations, and would have brought hundred men of-war buzzing about the ears nf the Southern Confectionery. This three- mile limit was well recognized at that time, although there is no written code governing the sea. The maritime code has grown up by degrees, like the common law of England, and like the code which governs the conduct of one gentleman to- ward another. Thirty years ago this recog- milton of the three mile limit was consid- cred great advance in civilization, but Secretary Gresham has taken a step further. He declares that firing upon commercial steamers in the usual track cannot be justi- fled, ''whether they pass within three miles of the Cuban coast or not" In this enlightened sentiment h e will doubtless be sustained by all the leading nations of the world.
 In this connection the action of Admiral Benham In Brazilian waters is recalled, The government of Brazil endeavored to prevent tue landing of American commer. cisl vessels at the wharves. Admiral Ben- ham took the vessels under cover of his man. of-war and escorted them to the wharf. For this prompt action he was commended by our government and by all civilized nations. If Brazil had proclaimed & blockade of the port and had recognizes the rebels as belligerents, of course the matter would have presented different aspect.

A PRACTICAL SUGGESTION

TO BE CONSIDERED BY THE COMMERCIAL
 CLUB.
 At the meeting April of the commercial clubs of Alabama and the annual state en- campment of the posts of the Grand Army of the Republic of this state, at Montgom- cry, the plan proposed by Mir. James F. Slater of this city will, 1t is expected, be teken up, discussed and probably put in execution. It consists of the appointment of a committee to visit various localities ia the state and report as to their soil, its products, water, timber, climate, mineral and general resources, healtbfulness, etc. |, and adaptability to the requirements of members of the Grand Army of the Repub- lie and their friends desiring homes in @ mild climate.
 The report will be published and sent out to all Grand Army of the Republic posts throughout the United States of America, which MT. Slater claims will, in view of the superior, extensive aud varied re. sources of Alabama, attract very large immigration of both Grand Army of the Republic and other people requiring moun- tain, table land or seaside locations, hard wood or pine timber locations for saw mills or wood working plants, foundry or ma chine shop locations, land for farm aud truit purposes. oyster planting, locations for tanneries, fouring mills, etc. It will probably result in the establishing of de- sirable colonies iu various sections of the state, as also in the settling of groups of families in numerous localities.

GREAT TOUR THROUGH EUROPE AND THE
 HOLY LAND.
 We are in receipt of the itinerary of a tour of the old world by party being arranged for by Rev. P. T. Hale, pastor of the Southside Baptist church, and Rsv. Walter A. Whittle, vice president of How ard college. These gentlemen have both been abroad, Dr. Whittie, especially, hay ing spent years in the east and written the capital work, "Travels and Adventures in Europe and All Bible Lands U The tour Italy, Greece, the Egean Isles, Turkey, Asia Minor, Syria, Palestine, Egypt, etc.. and back through Europe by another route.
 An experienced and scholarly conductor meets the party in London and remains with them as guide until they sail home, thus entirely relieving them of all the an- noyances incident to travel In foreign lands, engaging staterooms, rooms at hotels, car riages for sight seeing in the different cities, etc.. etc.
 In the holy land arrangeInentsf for perfect camping outfit have been perfected, and the party will camp out in the pleasant October weather, the length and breadth of Palestine, from Damascus and the snows of Lebanon on the north to the plains of Hebron and the cave of Mach- peiah on the south, and from the River Jordan to the orange groves of Joppa on the sea. The party is arranged at the re- quest of some wishing to go abroad, and will be a select one. They will stop at only first-c class hotels and tine choicest state rooms on steamers engaged, and the tour will be eminently educational. And what an education to study the great paint ings in the Pitti and Uffizi galleries of Florence and the Louvre ia Paris, etc., and especially for the Bible student to visit with open book the scenes of the events described therein. Having visited all the countries before Dr. Whittle has been en- abled to arrange the tour on very econom- ical lines, the entire expense of the three m6nth's tour being only $690. The party sail from New York August "A and return the last of November. A European tour has been arranged for those not caring to goto the orient, costing S365, the latter section of the party returning in October.
