feasibility OF running surface. electric and elevated

WILSON AND THE NAVY.
THE CONGREsSMANS FRIENDS HOPE
Full OF HIS APPOINTMENT.
HIS VISIT TO MAJOR MKINLEY AND IT'S POSSIBLE
REsULT-oPPosrTIoN FROM THE LINE OF
THE NAVY TO HIS SELECTION
AS SECRETARY.

Congressman Francis H. Wilson's brookiyh
nelghbors expect TO hear by tonight or tomorrow
with reference to whether his Sunday WISH with
Major Mckinley means more than sociai can w
tween old friends. which Major Mckinley ana MI
Wilson have been for years. Those who profess 10
have exact knowledge OF the situation say tna'
there is just one thing that may prevent MT VIII
sons appointment and that is his paternity OF the
bill which, In the language OF laymen, aims al
placing the engineers of the United States Navy on
q somewhat similar footing TO that now hed py
the line officers. The Congressman's reasons TOT
his bill have been set forth with clearness IN Inc
Tribune from time to time. and 1t Is not necessary
TO repeat them at length. Mr.. Wilson beiieves that
the engineers OF the modern battle-ship ana cruiser
should have higher rating and better pay than
they now receive, and his bill, had 1t become d
law would have accomplished this. His attitude
has the approval of all the engineers, and, incl
dentaiiy. nearly ell the labor organizations OF the
country The pressure brought to bear on Major
Mckinley by the line officers Of the Navy has been
something astonishing Whether 1t will prevent
Mr. Wilson from entering the Cabinet will probably
be learned this week.
With reference TO Mr. Wilson's candidacy and
the silent opposition Of the State organization,
which alleges that Mr.. Wilson did not enter the
field until after General Woodford's friends had be-
gun advocating his fitness for the office. Mr. Will
sons friends point 10 the fact as backed up by the
files Of The Tribune and other New-York papers.
that congressman WILSON'S Chains were uiseu upon
Major Mckinley as the polls closed. and a
movement in his favor among Union League mem
bers was chroniced In the last week Of the cam
paign. ,,
General Woodford's friends have worked with
great skill and vigor to get him into the Cabinet.
and they hope to him receive the portfolio. II
is no longer disguised fact. however. that Major
Mckinley Is 10th TO accept an avowed candidate Of
the Republican State organization. He IS said TO
hold firmly to the position that the wishes OF the
men who helped him in New-York during the can
vass for delegates entitled TO the highest con-
sideraton 1t is asserted that while he has no de-
sire to go out of his way TO dsappoint the State
organization, he Is still more averse to turning
down the men who helped him when friends were
comparatively scarce

DIR. SILVERMANS VIEWS on SUICIDE

"At a time when life is held cheapy." said DR..
Slverman, Suicide is always greatly on the In
The theory of the justif ,aton Of self-mur-
der held by some heather philosophers, and
also by modern philosophers who DO not consider
themselves and are not considered by the world as
heather. It Is always the false conception of hui
man life that leads to suicide. to the destruction or
that highest gift from God to man. Poverty. grief
loss of fortune or friends disappointed ambition or
love. disgrace and dishonor are among the most
important causes Of suicide. Every one of these
faces something higher than life itself Every one
who suicides considers that thing Tor whlch ne
leaves the world as Of greater import than life
itself. He places self. fortune or honor above fe.
This is an error. They forget that nothing Is
higher. more important or more valuable than HUI
man life. Life Is not a thing which can be lost
and regained and lost again; 1t cannot be bartered
ard Sold T. IL under control. but Is sacred
thing lent 10 us, which we must give up when God
calls for IT, There is nothing heroic In suicide. 1t

conclusion In each case II would result in the de-
