People who are complaining that the
business conditions Of 1892 have not yet
resumed should remember that tariff
bill cannot be framed and passed In "a
minute or month. IL was eighteen
months aftor Grover Cleveland became
resident before the Wilson tariff bill was
IA law, but there Is good reason to believe
that the Dingley bill will become law
in less than eighteen weeks after the
Inauguration of William Mckinley, and
less than half that time has not yet
pissed. Until the bill cnn pass and the
country has time 90 absorb the enormous
mass OF goods now being rushed i'm by q o
f1reign importers, il is unreasonable to o. :
rcct "a resumption of activity by the man
ufacturors or consequent prosperity among
the masses who will be affected by that
activity.

We learn that the strict regulations Tor
bicyclists hitherto enforced in Aus'r"'
and about which SO much has been head
from time to time, have recently been
greatly relaxed by an order Of Count
kielmansegg, the official having this
matter in charge. The requirements OF
an examination by the police of all bicy-
clists have been dispensed with, ana
henceforth riders can decide for them
selves whether they are sufficiently skill
full TO eide in the public streets or not
With this has also been abolished the
annual license fee of five forms (about
S2) Bicyclists also receive much greater
liberty as to the streets and roads they
may travel on, and the speed they may
adopt is more definitely fixed. In respect
to rules of the road, bicycles are put on
the same footing as light vehicles of all
sorts. The Vienna Cycling Association
is preparing great demonstration in
honor of Count kielmansegg To express
tie thanks of the wheolmen. he Is n
of one of the local clubs
Evidently the idea that "a bicycle rider Is
IA rTa avis in need of special legislation
TO control his movements is losing ground
In view Of his numerousness in the popu-
latiOn.

The sunday Hurdy-6urdy.

To the Editor of The News:
The question of how far the public parks
may be made use of for amusement and
money getting on the Sabbath day has been
raised at this time, and to one who was born
in good old New England, none too quick.
Our good citizens, through their representa-
tives, have allowed themselves 10 becoine re-
sponsibe for large debt 20 build mp sys-
I'm OF public parks for the rational enjoy
ment Of all classes, the rich and the poor 70
enjoy them alike, and now the question
arises, What Is rational enioymcntf
/ think, Mr.. editor. if judge Alright you
had one Of q os good New England mothers
that did not think 'carousal" with "hurdy-
gurdy' attachment was necessary for your
amusement and proper observance OF Sunday,
and TO me when quietly riding or walking
through our beautiful Roger Williams Park OF
Sunday this music and clatter OF the ma
chinery, and putting Of the steam engine of
the flying horses does not seem restful, but
does CRATE harshly ON the ears OF those who
look for rest aud quiet in the woods, paths
an beautiful green grass, coupled with tho
lakes. All these are restful after hard
week = work. and they are Of themselves sat
isfying To all human tastes unless they be SO
depravcd that the beautiful in nature finds
no charm for them.
The children find great pleasure in the
| animals, and il would be well If we had mere
of them.
! The argument is used that such means as
| ere usel at the shore resorts could be en-
| ployel at the park or amusement OF the peo-
| ple because the surroundings are purer. May
ask how long they would remain purer II
we keep letting down the barriers and
\ granting license for Objectionable sorts OF
amusement Our good people object, and well
| they may.
The parks were created for our children tc
run and romp in, and for those Of our less fa
vored citizens who work all the week in the
mill and the workshop, to get away from th'
| hot streets and close dwellings and enjoy
Gods sunshine in place laid out SO luxuri
ously that no poor man could ever afford o.
expect TO have for himself.
God has put in the poor man the same low
of the beautiful that he has in the more IA
yored class, and for rs TO think that the.
would not enjoy thoir trip to the park with
cut the carousel is mistake
Let US keep and add to all the 'innocen
! amusements we can, and forget there ar
-uch things as shore resorts i'm full blast of
| SUNDAY when we arrange for the amusemen
of the masses ut the parks.

members detractod from the nicoty and

in remarks that went Wide oil the marx.
Mr. Bicknell took it very calmly and
his worst enemy on thescommittee would
no doubt admit that he took his punish
ment we'll and displayed enough snap to
Q nphasize his offending statements rather
than 10 try To excuse and explain them.
His only defense, other than hls own
paper, was a motion from Mr.. Gilrain ia
indefinitely postpone the resolution. MI,
Gilrain, however, failed to vote mo" .on
the motion for passage.

Ex-President Cleveland must have been
% busy defending himself against the
attacks during the late campaign that he
failed to get time to read the platform OF
the Republican party. He evidently does
not understand that its strongest pledges
were restoration Of protection, the
maintenance of the present safe standard
of our currency and the promotion OF
international bimetallism. The burden
e his New York speech the other night
was an attack upon the party for carry

by a much larger majority of the voters
of the nation than he ever received In
any of his three candidates. for the presi-

We hear more or less talk about the
desire for band concerts at out Roger Will
liams Park during the summer. Such
concerts would be pleasant and Of an edu-
cational value. Perhaps no other mean
OF public entertainment would be SO gen
orally appreciated, so popular for tho
money invested. There Is no real reason
why the city should not furnish band
concerts as Il furnishes much else at its
parks for our common enjoyment This
newspaper opposed the C oncert idea as n
substitute for suitable celebration Of the
nation greatest holiday festival, just as II
would have opposed any idea brought for
ward to take the place Of something else
with which IL had nothing 10 do and
would be only artiflcially put in competi-
tion with The Council and the great
majority Of the people were with The
News and not at all disposed 10 give mp
their Fourth OF July celebration ON any
offer Of something else which somebody
pretended 10 tell them was better for their
health. The band concerts are now
worthy Of the attention Of the Council.

Col. JOslin in Condemnation.

Colonel Joslin took the floor again buS
the second speech was for condemnation
without the pleasing sense OF euiogy ana
he declared that member OF the schooi
committee should resign his position be-
fore finding fault with that body in
public.
The resolution was then passed unani-
mously.
After the main scrap of the evening
there was n minor bout between Alder
man Mccarthy and Mr.. Manchester. Az
the March meeting Mr.: Mancrester naa
hesitated to vote for a raise OF salary oil
the Aldermen in 1891. This displeased
Mr. Mccarthy inasmuch as he was not
i'm the Board of Aldermen until 1874, SO
after the meeting he called Mr.. Manches-
ter to account and secured ms
sion, This promise had evidently
slipped Mr.. Manchester memory for they
were about to adjourn last night on the
strength of the sentiment that there was
no more business when Alderman Nc
Carthy jumped TO his feet ana salu that
there was more business ana that ne
should like TO hear from Mr.. Manchester.
Tho latter looked thoughtful for
moment and then got up with the re-
mark. "Oh, yes / forgot Mr. Mccarthy
wants me 20 say that he was not In tine
Board until 1894, and therefore could not
! have voted for raise OF salarv In 1871.
| Therefore retract a former statement OF
| mine to the effect that Inc did, but still
| emphasize the fact that he has not re-

member "
Alderman Mccarthy wanted to speak
! but resident Barney would not have 1t
ard the committee adjourned.

GERMAN MINISTRY WILL NOT BE
CHANGED AT PRESENT.
Won H0HENL0HE TO REMAIN
RESIGNED SOME WEEKS AGO, BUT
WILL NOT PRESS 1T.
German Ambassador Mt Vienna Likely
to Succeed Him If He Should
Step Out-EmperOr's Naval
Plans May he u
Tariff War.

Berlin. May S.-(Copyright.) Throughout
the week the entire press has been full of
rumorS of a cabinet crisis. and the widest
and most conflicting rumors and statements
have been published on the subject. The
correspondent of the Associated Press here
learns on reliable authority that the facts
in the case are as follows:
The designations of the imperial chancel-
lor, Prince Hohenlohe, and the minister for
foreign affairs, Baron Marschall Won Bieb-
erstein, have been in the hands of the en-
peror for weeks, but no action has yet been
taken. On Wednesday his majesty had a
long conversation with Prince Hohenlohe
and later he received Baron Marschali Won
Bieberstein. Upon this occasion the for
eign, domestic and political situation was
discussed.
Just for the moment 1t is certain that the
present cabinet will retain their posts,
Both Prince Hohenlohe and Baron Mar
schall Won Bieberstein will wait for a more
opportune moment to press their resigna-
tions.
The statement made in several German
newspapers that General Count Won Wal
dersee. the military governor of Berlin, is
the coming man, and that he has already
worked out the programme for his future
by the emperor, is pure fiction. His majes-
ty, thus far, has not offered the chancellor
ship to anyone, but in case Prince Hohen-
lohe. who is thoroughly tired of Office, act
uelly leaves his post. his most likely sue
cessor is Count Phillip Zu Eulenburg, the
German ambassador at Vienna. Won Wall
dersee was pushed for Office by the Prince
Bismarck opposition, but he has no chance
whatever,
