Congressman Gnlett made strong
point against the anti-scalping bill,
which was passed by a narrow margin
in the House, at the behest of the rail-
roads. The New York courts have de-
cided against the constitutionality of
such a law, and it is valid argument
that when the railroads have entered
into the contract, it is Of little conse-
quence who uses the ticket. If abuses
have grown UP in the business, there
should be other methods of correction
that are not open to doubt in matters
Of eonstitutonality and equity.

The expected cIamor against the ex-
tension Of American navigation laws
to our newly-acquired possessions has
come from London. An open door in
the Philippines may not be precisely
the same as an open door in Cuba,
Porto Rico and Hawaii, and there's
the rub, but Britons will learn in time
that the extension relates only to the
domestic carrying trade.

The fact that the lost steamer Pen
tagoet was a propeller does not fur
nish a satisfactory answer to the ar
gument of those VINO believe that the
Portland might not have been wrecked
had she been propeller, instead of a
side wheeler. The Pentagoet was built
more than 30 years ago, and in point Of
safety was not to be compared with
modern screw steamers of the best type.
Vessels plying between widely -separat-
ed cities along the New England coast

A resident of the borough of Brook
Ign is credited with the determination
to undo the work of consolidation which
resulted in the formation Of Greater
New York. He says that if he were
to be a member of the next legislature,
he would not wait more than five min
utes after taking his seat before in
Producing a repeal bill. Such evidence
of infelicity in the home Of the newly
welded municipalities is positively
shocking Even if the several parts of
the big municipal aggregation can not
dwell together in entire harmony, they
should at least have the grace to do
their quarreling in private. Public de-
monstrations of lack of good fellow
ship are in bad form.

ADMIRAL DEwEY's report OF the engage
ment in which he crusbod the Spanish
fleet, bearing date May 4 and sent by
mail to Washington, will everywhere in
crease the respect and admiration with
which he is universally regarded. 1t is
so simple, so straightforward, so unaf-
fected, SO absolutely free from any sug-
gestion OF self-consciousness, so devoid
of the slightest suggestion of boastful-
ness,so generous in its hearty, ,unstrained
praise for what was done by its writer S
associates. Let one try to imagine what
a Spanish Admiral would have said
under similar circumstances and note the
difference. With such a victory to an
nounce, Montejo would, we may be sure,
have exhausted all the resources of
rhetoric, would have marshalled all the
bombastic phrases in which the grand
Eloquent language Of Spain is so rich
in the effort to express his exutation
and to convey an adequate idea OF the
importance and brilliancy Of his achieve
ment. But Admiral Dewey does not
even seem to be aware that he has ac-
complished anything extraordinary. He
had been ordered to smash the Spanish
fleet, and he has done it, and that is all
there is about it. In that matter, as in
anv other, he merely reports the execu-
tion OF his instructions.

Commerce and Finance.

There was scarcely anything done in
Flour, buyers lacking confidence, and
price. were largely nominal. Spot Bran
was dull and easier, though supplies were
light. Hay and Straw were dull and
ruled in buyers favor, with holders anx-
ious to sell. Refined Sugars were in fair
request and firm. Provisions sold in a
jobbing way on basis OF quotations.
The wheat market was characterized by
better feeling,in sympathy with stronger
advices from other domestic grain centres,
and the call was &c. higher than last
evening rates. Cables were lower on
July, but higher on later months. Ex-
port demand continued light. Corn op,
tions were firm, due to stronger cable
and Westarn advices, but the call showed
no important change from yesterday
final rates. There was no trading either
by spectators or exporters. Local cal
lots were quiet and unchanged. Oats in
car lots were more active and !c
higher, due to moderate offerings anG
stronger Western advices. Cotton was
unchanged.
