NEW ELECTRIC SYSTEM.
An Electrical Roads Experiments
with the Sprague Multiple Plan.

CHICAGO, April 23.-The South-side Ele-
waited Railroad, a steam line operating six
teen miles of track. which adopted the
Sprague multiple electric system some
months ago, has made a test of it's new
station by operating seven-car trains at the
southern terminus. Later it started sue
cessfully regular operation of a number of
trains running mixed in with its own steam
trains and with other electric trains on the
downtown loop. The system differs from
others in operation in that the locomotive
idea is abandoned, each car is equipped
with motors and what is called the multiple
unit control, and the cars are combined in
trains of any required length and run from
either selected end of any car. The whole
change will be COMPLETED in a few weeks,
and only the multiple unit system will then
be in use. 1t is the intention Of the road
to run at more nearly equal and short in
tervals, and to vary the train length from
one to five cars, according to traffic de-
mands. BY the new system the road ex-
poets to save not less than s150,000 year in
Operating expenses, independent of any in
crease in passenger traffic by reason of the
improved service. The same system has
been adopted for the initial equipment of
the Brooklyn Elevated Railroad. 1t is
thought by its advocates to mark the aban-
suburban service. The systec. Is the inven-
ton of Mr.. Frank j. Spr2 de who inau-
gurated she pioneer trolley, at Richmond,

Developments at the trial of Sheriff

ress at wfikesbarre, Pa, go TO show
that the Lattiner slaughter was with
ost a shadow of excuse. The prosecu-
ton has several intelligent witnesses
who stood in the school-house porch at
the scene of the tragedy and witnessed
all Of its details. They declare that the
marching miners were peaceable. that
there was no preliminary firing over
their heads; that they turned and fed
at the first shot and that the volley
fired was delivered as they were run

wounded corroborate this evidence, the
doctors swearing that a large number

Representative Fleming of Georgia,
with much difficulty secured a chance
in the House yesterday To take a rise
out OF Thomas b. Reed 1t has been
the policy Of that autocrat to prevent
action on the sale of the Kansas Pa
ciflc Railway. Mr.. Fleming, a men,
Der OF the Committee on Pacific Rail-
roads, charged that Reed and Chair
man Powers were delaying the bill in
the interests of the REORGANIZATION
committee. When. after repeated at
tempts to prevent il, the Speaker fin
ally was obliged to recognize Mr..
Fleming on a pension bill, he knew
what was coming and at once left the
throne and the hall. In fact. he turn
ed tail and ran. Reed is famous for
his inability TO listen to unpleasant
truths. The case against him is aggra-
waited by the fact that the measure
he is obstructing is one asked for by
the President. The sale will take place
in eleven days. If legislative action
can be delayed sufficiently the syndi-
cate will have everything its own way.
Perhaps now something may be done
since Mr.. Fleming's spirited action.

Spanish debt upon the island of Cuba,

According to the reports, Morgan took
James Gordon Bennett, of the New

ago. and that may account in part for
the peculiar policy Of that paper. The
Morgan plan is exactly as ii has been
repeatedly described in these columns,
except that as now published il is a lit
tie more atrocious. For two years GER

Ieighton'S True Art.

An eminent American artist, who is
now an old man, has never forgotten the
lesson he learned from Sir Fred erick
Leighton in his youth. Leighton was then
a brilliant a al fascinating young painter,
whose future was still before him. He
was at work upon an Italian landscape.

to Introduce An olive tree He remembered
a tree which he had seen in the south
of Italy. AMI remembered 10 quite distinctly
enough TO reproduce it. but he was not
content to trust Ia his memory.
The American artist remembers how
Leighton came into n cafe in Rome on
his way to southern Italy. making the
long tour from England for the express
purpose OF studying that olive tree, and
of taking home an exact sketch OF IT,.
and lie remembers also how four or five
weeks later, the ardent young English
man, briIIanti, enthusiastic. versatile,
but with a capacity for taking pains.
reappeared with a wonderful sketch OF
the olive tire, upon which he had spent
days of unbrOken observation and work.
From this little incident the American
student learned a lesson, which he never
forgot and which went far TO secure
the success which came To him In later
life. The story illustrates the great
quality which lies behind all real success.

McKinley's Jellyfish Policy.
(From the Cha rleston GaZette.)

IL is noteworthy that while all the
Republican organs and politicians, big
and small, go through the form of de-
Tending the policy Of the Mckinley Ad-
rninistration, they are ready TO throw
their caps In the air whenever an incident
occurs that gives hope Of a change. Thus,
when the Maine was ordered to Hava IA,
there was 4 general Republican acclaim
over the expectation that our foreign
policy was to receive an injection of
vigor. This shows that the Republicans
do not really approve the present iellyfish
policy of Mckinley, and are hoping that
be will change it. The Democrats fully
three years ago boldly repudiated Cleve-
lands Cuban policy, and from the begin
ming OF the rebellion the Democrats in
Congress have consistently advocate the
recognition nf belligerency or independ-
ence. And here is no doubt that so per
cent of the American people would approve
any policy Oh the part of the Government
that would hid the Cuban patriots to ex.
pei the Spaniards from the island.

THE SITUATION IN ROME.
The Necessity for the Relief Of the
Poorer Glasses Ackncw lodged

Rome, Feb. with the streets full of
troops, some marching and some posted
at strategic points in case of need, last
Sunday, it was hard to believe that the
city was not under martial law.
1t was difficult to avoid making a
comparison between Paris and Rome in
connection with this display of soldiers
and police in the heart of two cities
which were so peaceable In appearance.
The reason was the same in each case
fear of the socialist or anarchist
party taking advantage, for the pur-
pose of attacking the government, on
the one hand of the Dreyful case, and
on the other hand Of the high price Of
bread.
The analogy between the present po-
Iitical situation in the two Latin coun-
tries is a curious one to study. In Italy
the question is much more serious than
in France, because il is impossible for
any one to deny that Ii is in conse-
uuence of a series of bad administra-
tons that life is rendered more Than
difficult to TIE smaller trades people
and workmen in the towns OF the rural
districts. This is the black cloud on
horizon full of ominouS fOrebodlnRs lor
the future.
III is aufn1tteu ny even lic biO'7N N"Ai
sentative Italians that ii is necessary
for the government to find some means
of dealing with the present situation
without delay by successive reductions
of taxation. IL is necessary 30 hnd
some means, not only of coming TO the
relief of the said poorer classes. but OF
giving them some hope for the future.
1t is the only way of preventing the
socialist party from holding demon
STATIONS on every pretext and at every
moment 1t Is absolutely necessary
that the socialist sect should not find
a single rallying point amid popu-
lation which complains of frightful
misery, and which consequently II is
all the more easy to exasperate.
Such is the present situation. The
danger is not immediate. The King is
liked and esteemed. The army is faith
full and reliable. The weak republican
party has no chiefs. The socialist par
ty has not the means of succeeding by
force. but in spite of its fresh color the
fruit is touched by the cankerworm
which is there, and il is necessary 10
destroy il before ii is passed into the
interior, where IL will do irreparable
damage.

GOV. BLACK is ANSWERED.
The Reason why Other Ports Gain
Trade az New York's Expense.


New York, Feb. 5.--Governor Black s
recent inquiry at dinner of the Cham
Der of Commerce as the causes which
have permitted other ports to gain
trade at the expense of New York has
been answered by a committee appoint
ed by the chamber to investigate the
SUBJECT.
The committee accepts the state
ments offered by the Produce Exchange
of this city as proof that trade here is
suffering through differential rail rates
established by the railroad companies
in the Joint Traffic Association, which
differentials, the committee believes,
should be abolished as an injustice. At
the same time the committee says:
We must refpember that We have
been instrumental in procuring from
the government large contributions to-
ward improving the various harb 3rs of
or coast. .Theo|question may well be
put, Why did we do this if. when done,
we besrudge them the traffic 10 which
they have a right, and for which these
very improvements were made?
In the cases. of New Orleans and
Galveston, for instance, their entrances
have by the expenditure of millions of
our money and with our hearty APP
prevail been enlarged, so that now veg
sells of "a feet draft of water Can easily
enter them. or course, the natural and
proper result Of this is that a large
proportion of all cotton, grain and pfn-
visions produced anywhere near .ti.os2
ports are going tlcre for shipment
SO the creation OF an important port
n nd Obi To-
News, the building of enormous new
railroads running to ocean ports or at
least connected with other lines ter
minating at such ports, all mean diver
sion of traffic and commerce from
great centers which have heretofore
controlled them.
other agencies are also at work pro-
ducing this same result. Ii was not
many years ago that less than half a
dozen large New York firms controlled
the entire business which passed
through Chicago, and was by them di-
rected to New York for sale and reship-
ment. The youngest of us can remem-
Der the demand on Eastern banks for
money 10 move the crops and so the
crops themselves We're under absolute
control of the bankers of the East.
When we listen to the report that Chi
cago now has such a surplus Of money
that she is lending it to Europe, we
may well stand astounded at the
change. Yet all this announces the
progress of the nation and the pros
perity of the whole United States, and
in this We can rejoice"
The committees remedies for New
York's commercial decadence are the
adjustment of differential rates, the
improvement of the Erie Canal and the
deepening of the ship channels in the
harb0r. These recommendations will
be considered by the chamber at it's
next meeting.
