clipped than in the spring of 1894. and many
less than in 1895.
The clip OF the State of Indiana. at its

100000 People Destitute.

NEW YORK, April 1.-THE national Ar
menian relief committee, through its treas
urer, Brown Bros. & Co.. of this city. have
received the following communication from
Harpoot, dated March 2:
'Gentlemen-Our system of relief COM
prises several distinct departments.
'-First-The destitute receive tickets for
two pieces of bread day. for each adult.
We have contracted. The number now on
our list is 2,379.
'Second-The bedding and underclothes

Sewing Is given out to- destitute women,
who take it to their homes and make a
suit of underclothes for cents. Over 800
women have thus far kept their families
supplied with bread. For this center We
and supply the refugees who come here.
"Third-We have furnished work to men
in clearing away the ruins of burnt build
ings, for our desire is to help without pau
perizing them.
ssFourth-we are trying to aid people who
are furnishing with plenty to eat all around
them. The harvest is better than usual
this year. and there Is food which the Turks

1866 souls

creases, because many who had a little
food have now exhausted their store. There
are thousands of widows and orphans
thrown upon the world with no bread
winners. There are artisans without tools,
farmers without seed or cattle, and people
without houses. To maintain only the pres
ent lines of relief work down to the end of
April we dare not estimate less than $4,000.
Our rate of expenditure is now 5000 per
week.

BIuster i'm the Senate.

To the Editor of the indianapolis Journal:
The Cuban debate in the Senate is enough
to make any self-respecting man ashamed of
his country, Disguised at least with the
highest deliberative body in that country.
Perhaps it is fitting thar Senator Turpie
should go down in history at the tail end Of
an ignominious procession of demagogues
who would rather pirate about war with
Spain than legislate for the restoration os
national credit. One can understand why
Senator Mills, of Texas, should be ready 10
lombard the Spaniards with empty phrases.
because such a course would be Likely to
tickle the traditional prejudice of his State
against an Old enemy; but what could have
inspired Senator Turpie with the idea that
he could commend himself 10 his constitu-
ents by bray.ng in the same key, especially
after they had reason 10 hope that this nom
sense was over for the session? How can
the great Congress OF nations that is al
ways in session, listening by cable TO the
notables of other lands. believe in the IN
teliigence and patriotism of Indiana, when
her representatives in the highest national
assembly talk like schoolboys about bonn
harding their neighbors, and vote for the
free coinage of silver? This deliberate ignor-
ing by Senators OF the sober common sense
of their constituents is not only trying to the
patience ii damages national credit abroad
and debauches public opinion at home. We
don't want foreigners to think of our genial
Uncle Sam as a staggering bully with a
chip on his shoulder and shillaly under
his arm; nor do we want our own people
corrupted with the notion that .senseless
brag and buster are any more becoming
to nation than to an individual.
This is the serious phase of the Cuban
question. We have no idea of a Quixotic
war with Spain. seven-tonged Senator
just as little as the rest of us; but Is II
decent or honorable for the highest repre-
sentative OF the State to belittle its dignity
and belle its common sense for such political
and personal capital as he can make by
playing the mountebank to those who relish
that sort of cheap performances? ]. @. d.

LESS THAN $4,000 CARS
FREIGHT TRAFFIC. APPROACHING
ITS MINIMUM TONNAGE.
Air Brakes for Freight Trains
Thirty Cars Now Carry the Tonnage
OF 100 Cars Twenty Years Age

The train records show that there were
received and forwarded at indianapolis in
the week ending April IL a total of 21,65
cars. Is, i69 being loaded, a decrease In load
ed car movement, as compared with the
week ending April 4. of S5l, and 1.250 fewer
than in the corresponding week OF 1895. but
200 more than In the corresponding week
of 1894. The falling off in business was large
ly in through freights east-bound. The ship
ments OF grain and flour are at a minimum
and shipments Of provisions, produce and
lumber are light; only In live stock, dressed
meats and products from corn are the east
bound shipments comparing favorably with
those of last year. The Panhandle. the Van
dalia and the st. Louis division of the Big
Four make the most unfavorable exhibits
in through east-bound business. The west
bound tonnage compares favorably with
that of the corresponding period last year.
but, going back to the spring Of 1892, or
even 1893. the comparison this year is un-
favorable. especially in the tonnage of tho
lower-class freights, which Is governed by
the prosperity Of the manufacturing inter-
ests. Freight men are disappointed that this
class of traffic this spring is not increasing
west-bound business. The north-and-south
roads continue to make bad weekly records
OF loaded-car movement. They are hauling
some lumber. ice and merchandise freight,
but by no means their usual volume of bust
ness for spring time. Usually in April the
shipments of grain and live stock are
heaviest Local business is below its usual
April volume, and the traffic of the north
and-south lines Is more local in its char
acter than that of the east-and-west lines.
Indications the latter part of the week were
that I'm local business there would be de-
cided Improvement within the next few days,
as building and street improvements will
commence, and this means good deal 10
several of the roads over which the material
for such purposes Is hauled. Manufacturers
will from now on be shipping more goods.
Below is given the car movement for the
week ending April IL, and for the CORE
spending weeks OF 1895 and 1894:
