A profound sensation has been
caused at Athens, Greece, by q naval
scandal of formidable dimensions.
II has just been ascertained that all
the cartridges fitted to the torpedoes
during the war between Greece and
Turkey were not provided with per.
cussion caps and Illuminating mercury.
Hence, If the torpedoes had been
wanted they would have been perfectly
harmless.
The anti-dynasty newspapers are

George, of Greece, who was the COM
mander of the torpedo fotilla.
The prince, who was q great favorite
with the masses previous to the war.

The Marine Hospital service of the
Government, in collecting statistics as
20 the public health and the death rate
Of cities, has made some very valuable
estimates as to the growth of leading
American cities since the census was
taken in 1890. While these figures
may not be as exact as the enumera-
ton made by the census-takers, they
are, to an extent, official, because they
are furnished by the authorities of the
cities for which they are given. The
figures reported are for the year 1896,
six years later than those published
in the census reports. The estimates
show that of all the large American
cities Chicago increased the most rap.
idly in its population. In 1890 the
number Of inhabitants was 1,0O9,8
and in 1896 the population is reported
at /, 619,226. New York ranks second
in its growth, having increased from
1,515, 3O1 in 1890 to 1895, 900 in 1896.
Next comes Brooklyn, with S06,343 in
1890 and LOO, 100 last year. In the
six-year period Philadelphia increased
her population from l,0i6, 064 to L.
1873, 1913. Fifth in the list is st. Louis,
which gained from 451, ITO in 1890 to
$40, 900 in 1896. Boston shows less
increment than st. Louis and has only
60, more inhabitants now than in
1890. Baltimore, the last in the list
of cities having a population in excess
of half million, increased from 1884,
439 in 1890 to 506,37S. The smallest
cities show proportionate gains in pop
ulation, which shows the continued
tendency Of the people toward the
cities.

The Atlanta Constitution says it is
gratifying to note that some progress
has been made in railway building and
that for the fiscal year ending June
80, 1897, nearly 5000 miles of railway
track has been laid in the United
States. The figures are taken from
Poor's Railway Manual for the current
year. In the growth which they rep
resent some States have shared more
literally than Others. but there is
nothing to excite establishment in this
unequal distribntion. The only thing
to be wondered at is the fact that any
growth at all could have been realized
under the depressing circumstances
which have prevailed during the year.
The following table shows how the
growth indicated in Poor's Manual for
the current year has been distributed:
California, 191 miles; Pennsylvania,
$50; Louisiana, 142; Michigan, III;
Wisconsin, 1O7; Illinois, 1903; Indian
Territory and Oklahoma, 81; Ohio, 70;

conditions prevailed during the twelve
months covered by the foregoing table,
better results would have been real
lied But, in view of the hard times
which have paralyzed both trade and
industry, the figures contained in thu
above table are highly gratifying.
