A Cable Under the Amazon.
From the New York Post.

from tne New 1Ork fOSt.
An interesting variation in the usual run
of submarine cable work will soon be shown
in the laying of cable from the mouth OF
the Amazon. 1,40O miles up the great river
This novel work will place the large and
growing trade of the dim but rich interior
in direct communication with Europe, as
well as with the immediate shipping ports,
and will unquestionably contribute largely
to the development of Brazilian commerce,
To carry land lines over this vast and little
known territory would simply be impos-
sible, and. as there are practically no rail-
roads paralleling the river, the steamboat
and the cable are the great means of COM
merce and civilization. There is a hint
here, however. that might well be adopted,
even in the United States, where, If wires
were cabled and carried along the beds of
all available streams and rivers, there GER
tainly would not be the Interruptions now
experienced through the failure of the land
lines every time strong gale blows. In
Germany. where military considerations
often cause things to be done that would
not be done in the mere interest of peace
full trade, no small proportion of the tele-
graph wires are thus submerged, in order
to avoid any break in the service at critical
moments.

Case of Jonah, in Which the Whale

From the New York World
There was as bad a case of cruelty at our

He looked very comfortable at first"
said the manager, but soon l noticed the
old fellow was getting nervous. He shifted
about on his seat, blinked his eyes very
hard. scratched his head with his toe and
looked surprised; Then he opened his big

no results. I left him making heroic eff

Next day the big frog was still more

Not Cheap,

Major Moses P. Handy relates in the
New York Mail and Express the following
anecdote. which may well be pondered over
by persons with prediction for poker
playing: A Chinese gentleman, staying at
one of our big hotels, and finding the time
hanging heavily on his hands. asked an
American acquaintance to initiate him into
the mysteries of the game of poker. Some
other men were invited in, and the game
was played with a two-dollar limit. The
Chinaman was greatly interested, playing
boldly and losing philosophically to the
extent of about 500. Then he called a
halt When they were settling up the
game one of the party. being DESTROYS of
breaking the solemn silence, said: We'll.
MI -. poker. how do you like him p
The Chinaman shrugged his shoulders and
said, with a PARKWAY look in his eyes.
Good game" and then added quickly and
emphatically, mot cheap" The general
opinion was that he had stated the case In
a nutshell.

Comment on the Declarations on the Tariff
Question at Springfield
Special Significance Attached to the
Utteranccs of Senator Sherman a.
Affecting National Affairs,

The declarations of Messrs Sherman
Mckinley and Foraker on the tariff oues-
ton In the opening of the campaign at
Springfield, Ohio. yesterday have excited
col siderable interest here Special sign,fi-
canoe is attached to the utterances of Mr.
Sherman, his prominence in national af-
fairs causing 1t to be assumed that he
looks beyond the merely local sentiment in
Ohio 1t is known that Mr.. Reed does not
desire the Inauguration of a tariff fight
during this Congress, when nothing could
be accomplished by it, and it is understood
that he is not in sympathy with the propo-
sition to make the return to McKinleyism
the issue In the next presidential campaign.
He prefers to treat the democratic tariff
legislation as confession of the correct
Tess of the protective policy and to make
the issue general one of the inefIiciency
OF the democratic administration in all
matters. including the tariff. with .he
arrangement Of foreign and financial af-
fairs.
The First CHALLENGE
The declarations of Sherman and tho
others yesterday is looked upon as the first
challenge of those who hold different views
those who want the fight to be made on the
question Of the restoration of the Mckinley
tariff, with the view of fixing that ISSUE
The democrats. who do not want to make
Aoi ANY IuTtneT TeOucIOn OF
the tariff at this time. express a perfect
Willingness to allow the issue to be be-
tween the general revision of the tariff
with higher duties and letting the existing
tariff stand. They declare that If Mr. Sher-
mans utterances are to be accepted as in
dicating the position of the republican
party in the presidential contest, the silver
question will no longer trouble the demo-
Gratis, and they will all unite in the cry
against any further disturbance of the
business interests Of the country" Having
done their tinkering, they are ready to
stand In opposition to any other tinkering.
The Silver Question Out.
1t Is believed that Reed. Allison and Har.
rison Will all resist the republican party's
being committed to the Ohio idea, and the
move at Springfield is looked upon with
suspicion. Another significance attached
to Mr.. Sherman's making the restoration
OF higher protection the main issue is
that he has become thoroughly satisfied
that the silver men will in no manner con-
troll the democratic national convention
and that. therefore, the silver question
will not make an issue between the can.
