If the broker Chapman were an
every day individual, and if not as
closely associated as he is with Have
meyer and Searles, two of the Sugar
Kings, there would be smaller effort
in his behalf Hewould be permitted
to be taken to Jail, with no one to
protest against the proceeding, or
petition for his pardon. But circum-
stances, you know alter cases. If
Chapman goes to Jail there seems to
be no other alternative than that
Havemeyer and Searles will have to
go also, for their offences are said to
be of the same character and of
equal gravity, that of refusing to
answer questions propOunded by a
Senate Investigating Committee. In
what respect is a Sugar King, or any
other American King, more rightfully
exempt from the operations of the
law than the humblest individual of
the country There are and should
be no privileged criminal classes in
America. Chapman has, however,
announced his determination to sur
render to-day and serve out his term
of thirty days in prison.

A FIFTH wheel to a wagon has long
been regarded as a supeTatity, but n
tl& If rail to railway track cannot
be classed with it. Such rail has
been laid. and has been successfully
tested in connection with an electric
motor by means of which a heavy
train has been rapidly propelled at
the rate of sixty miles an hour. There
are, therefore, no less than three dis
tinct and totally divergent agencies
intended to favor freight transporta-
ton and travel, claiming public at
tention The first is the Keely motor,
the second the air-ship, and the third
this three-rail railway with electric
propulsion. Without pretending to
have any knowledge whatever of the
merits of Keely's long talked Of
motor, of air-ships, or of the new
railway beyond what has just been
printed in the newspapers, we confess
to having most faith in the latter,
though both the others may prove to
be successes.

defense, saying he had lived so years
with a reputation, but now in his de-

The Cuban Onestlnn-

All eyes are now turned towards
President Mckinley. Every one is
deeply anxious to learn what will be
his course in regard to the protection
and support of the suffering Ameri-
cans in Cuba. He can make broad
name for himself by taking deter
mined steps in the matter, and the
indications are that he will take
advantage Of the opportunity, but in
order to derive its fullest advantage
he viii have to move promptly, as
well as decisiyely.
And now, as if the bloodthirstiness
of the Turk was not enough for the
time, there comes from Cuba a wall Of
sorrow, and an appeal to the people
Of the United States for help which
is so pitiful that it would seem i'm
possible to resist it.
The sulTerings of the paciticos and
of the Americans also, who have been
driven from their farms into the towns
by the butcher Weyler, are said to al
most battle description. The blood Of
every rightminded man and woman
fairly boils while reading the devilish
proceedings of Weyler against these
unoliending people.
Cruelties have been carried on by
the tyrant to such an extent as to alb
solve all Christian people from re-
sponsibility it, in the exercise Of the
commonest feelingsof humanity they
insist upon interposing between the
brute and his victims, and impera-
lively insist upon fair treatment for
them.

cargo, went ashore Saturday morning
near Lamaline, New Foundland. A
heavy sea was running, and the crew
succeeded with great difficulty In
launching the boats, which were almost
swamped among the breakers. They
rowed all day and all Saturday night,
but were unable to find the land. They
had no provisions, so hurried was the
start from the vessel, and they suf-
fered greatly from the cold and drench-
ing sea. About noon yesterday they
were picked up by a pilotboat The
crew numbers 28, most of them being
greatly exhausted from hunger and
rowing. The German steamer Arcadia
went ashore yesterday near Cape Ray,
on the southern side of the Gulf of St.
Lawrence, in a dense fog. Her 25 pas
sengers and the crew of "a had des-
perate experience in reaching land.

COMPLAINTS from stockholders
have led the Western Railroad of
France to publish some curious facts
about free passes given to the press.
Passes were issued in 1896 which, if
paid for, would have added to the
receipts of the company 922, 600 francs;
to counterbalance this the newspapers
printed free advertisements for the
railroad which would have cost it
I .G34. 600 francs.
