The Belt line railroad tunnel, one
of the most remarkable engineering
feats of modern times, which has
been built under Baltimore, from
Camden station to Bayview junction,
on the Philadelphia division of the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad, dis
lance of seven and half miles, has
been formally opened for business,
and hereafter there will be no trans
ferring of passenger trains across the
Patapsco river. Trains will be run
between New York and Washington
in four and half hours, and between
Philadelphia and Washington in two
and half hours. Two new passen-
ger stations will be built by the Bal
timore 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.

Recently, when ex-senator Camden
was asked for an expression of opin-
ion as to the propriety or otherwise
of State Convention this summer
to consider the financial problem, he
said: s:.My feeling would be against
calling such convention at this time,
over year in advance of an election.
The D Democratic National Convention
of next year will have to pass upon
the financial question. That conven-
ton will decide what the Democratic
position on the silver question shall
be, and 1 don't think the Democrats
of any of the States should in advance
of the National Conventions action
commit themselves in a way that
might place them out of line with the
majority of the party in the next
campaign"

Gov. MacCorkle's refusal to allow
Virginia trops to come into West
Virginia to break up miners meet
ings is generally sustained. West
Virginia is doubtless able to look
after strikers when they become un-
lawful in our own State, and the pre-
cedent in this case would probably
have been bad one.

townsman Mr.. Frank 81. Duke-SmitlI,
will, as we learn from the San Fran
cisco Call of recent date, which
contains illustrations from the work,
make its appearance in few days.
This institution is now the fourth
richest college in this country, and
President Eliot of Harvard classes it
as one of the five great universities of
America. From teaching staff of
ten in 1869 the number has swelled
to ninety-six for the current year.
The increase in the number of stu
dents has also been phenomenal,
rising from forty the first year to 1875
for the session of 1S94-95. In all
1929 students have matriculated at
the university since 1869.

HAWAII AND GREAT BRITAIN.

Euranaan pnUar. :

Natives q the islands Fassr the Great
European Power.
LONDON, Aug. 8o.-Colonei MacF Farlane,
former aide de-camp to the late King
Kalakaua, has just arrived In London.
In an interview he said that he was In
formed that few Hawaiian politicians
and merchants who favored the old form
government would wait upon President
Cleveland when congress reassembles to
urge the annexation of the Sandwich
Islands. The primary object, he said,
would be to test the sincerity Of the off,
cials OF the Hawaiian republic A large
number OF Americans, he remarked, had
Joined the republican party In Hawaii,
10 being generally understood that the
existing republic in the Sandwich islands
provided only for temporary government
until annexation to the United States
could be arranged.
The present officials having been in
office year or more, and no special effort
having been made to attain this end, the
Americans In Honolulu are dubious re-
specting the Intentions OF the present Ha-
waiian republic, hence the projected ap-
plication to the United States governments
for annexation.
In conclusion. Colonel MacFarlane ex-
plains that Mr.. Clcghorn, the father Of
Prince kaiulani, 10 now on route to Eng
land, accompanied by ex- Consul Wode-
house. 1t is believed that one Of the OBJ
1ects OF their visit ia to present to the
British government full account Of the
situation Of the Hawaiian islands, with a
view OF restoring the monarchy. Still,
railing to bring about the restoration Of
the monarchy to which they naturally In
cline. they would really prefer annexa-
tion to Great Britain. OF course the
American influence is In the ascendant,
but the British influence is also large
Colonel MaoFarlane favored perman-
ent republic or else permanent restora-
tion Of the monarchy, the best elements of
both parties forming q coalition for tho
support Of the government. Failing such
coalition. annexation to the United States
would be the most advantageous COM
mercially, but there is no doubt that II
test vote were taken the natives, who con-
stitute a majority, would vote largely in
favor Of closer political relations with
England.
During the course Of the interview Col
onel MaoFarlane remarked that the
United States had just made a demand
for the payment of so5. 900 to an Ameri-
can named Durreil. Other American
claims, he said would soon be presented.
