Four Of Morton's New York delegates
announce their purpose to vote for Nc
Kinley on the first ballot. Plat is very
angry with them. but the big four are
determined TO climb into the band-wagon
before the procession begins to move.
Just now Platt Quay. and the other
bosses who are not in the Mckinley COM
bination are doing their best to persuade
Harrison to allow them to use his name
TO defeat Mckinley. 1t is doubtful if
Harrison will comply with their wishes.
The risk is too great, since the nomi-
nation OF Mckinley seems to be a fore
gone conclusion.

FOUR RATTLESHIPs.

American public sentiment will doubt
less sustain the House OF Representa-
tives in refusing to concur in the action
Of the Senate in reducing the number OF
battleships provided for in the naval APP
preparation bill from four to two The
question of strengthening our navy or
our coast-defences is not a political ques-
ton In view OF the feeling OF the peo-
pie Of this country touching the Vene-
zuelan and the Cuban issues. and the
expressions Of Congress on these issues
the national Legislature is in its rela-
lions to our navy and the protection OF
our coast in the position Of Commit
tee OF Public Safety"
In this connection, II may be interest
ing 10 give the record Of the Virginia
congressman on the question Of concur
ring in the Senate's action. 1t IS as fol-
lows: For concurrence-Messrs. Jones,
Swanson, and Turner; against concur
rence-that is, for building four battle
ships-Messrs. Elicit, Otey, Tyler, and
Thorp; not voting-Messrs. Meredith
Tucker and Walker. Mr.. Tucker was
paired off, but stated that, had his pair
been present, he CTuckeD would have
voted for concurrence.

THAT NEW RAILROAD.

We published yesterday telegram an
nounclng that an important coal develop
ment in West Virginia is the building OF
the Glenjean. Lower Loop Creek, ana
Decpwater railroad. which viii be com
menced at once. At Deepwater the com
pany proposes 10 build bridge across the
Kanawha to intersect the Kanawha and
Michigan railroad, so they Will have IA
cilities for shipping coal by rail over that
road, as well as the Chesapeake and
Ohio. They viii also have the benefit
of the river transportation. This road
will develop one Of the largest coal-helds
in West Virginia.
A road leading directly to Richmond
from the northeast northwest, ana
northern portions Of West Virginia would
open as fine country as ever was opened
for both an unlimited supply of coal
and lumber. England used to get ship
timber in that region. The Michigan road
would be as long as the Richmond road.

Hon. Richard Kleberg, Of Cuero, Tex,
was sworn in Tuesday as Mr.. Grains
successor in the House. He is a lawyer
Of fine standing, has been state senator
and United States District Attorney. In
speaking of the political situation in
Texas. he said:
THE movement on the part Of a number
OF gold-standard Democrats TO secede
from the party in Texas is 10 be deplored
and | regard their course as very unwise
] am pronounced i'm my views on the
money question. and have combatted the
free-silver doctrine to the best of my
ability. My district is almost solid for
sound money. and yet none of my free
silver friends abstained from voting for
me because Of my views on finance
recognize the right Of the majority TO
govern. and this Is the general sentiment
among the voters of Texas. There is
no other party TO which our people can
turn. We are not ready to embrace the
wild schemes Of the Populists. and after
all these years of contending with the
Republicans we do not now propose to
surrender TO them"
This is the true feeling and the true
principle, so far as dividing the Demo
cratic party is concerned. There is no
other party to which the people can
turn.

As the warm season advances, the
howling-dog nuisance resumes its wonted
aggravatlng Importance. A dog wearing q
city license tag, or medal, is at liberty
10 roam our streets all day and howl all
night, no matter how many sick or ner-
vous people may be disturbed by him.
As there seems TO be no immediate pros
pect for the adoption of the dog-pound
ordinance proposed by the Police Com
missioners, we think it would be wise 10
make the best Of existing laws, and
that one or two police officers might be
advantageously employed in reporting
dogs that make night hideous in different
parts of the city. We know Of no other
way in which the exertions of a few
policemen would benefit the public so
much. We have never been able to dis
cover any reason for allowing a dog
nuisance 10 be maintained i'm the city,
while the Efforts Of the public authorities
are zealously directed to the abatement
Of other and less irritating nuisances.
The late Chief-of-Police John Poe es-
timated that there were between 5000
and 1900 dogs in this city.

NEW YORK, May 4.-There has been
a considerable accession TO the number
OF visitors to the dry-goods market to-

lar trade at first hands results have

Lee Pleasure Park is TO be the name
Of that great portion Of the Exposition
Grounds which is hereafter to be de-
voted to sports and games for the enter
tainment Of our people during the sum
mer months. OF old, this entire tract oil
land was known as "the Hermitage ana
was owned by the Mayo family into
which General Winfield Scott married. a
few wears before the war the volunteer
cavalry went into camp there, and 1t
was then called Camp Lee, after Light
horse Harry Lee dhe father of General
r.. T.. Leo the famous southern cavalry
leader OF the Revolution. When what Is
now Monroe Park was vacated by the
State Agricultural Society the Hermitage
became the new fairgrounds" title
which IT retained until the outbreak Of
the war. when the grounds, having been
taken for military purposes, became
Camp Lee" again. We suppose that nine
cut Of ten of our people believe that it was
named after General II. r. Lee. Camp
Lee was, in the first years Of the war, a
camp for the rendezvous and instruction
of Virginia volunteers, but later became
a camp for conscripts and for our
paroled prisoners, though, on occasions, it
was occupied in part by other soldiers.
The name Of Lee has long been asso-
ciated with the grounds, and we are
glad to see it restored TO them in the
form Of Lee Pleasure Park. The action
OF the lessees in this matter shows a
proper regard for "the eternal fitness of
things"

If the kilograms regarding the Trans

occurred are genuine. and 1t seems to be
admitted that they are, il must be con-

tons made in them divest the expedition
of every claim to knight-errantry and
