BULL FIGHTING IN FRANCE.
No Better Sport Furnished Than
That Given to the ProvencaIes-

(From the London Chronicle.)
French legislation against bull fighting
is clearly taken as a joke in southern
France At Mines. as we have already
pointed out. there Is no difference in the
sport" of which that magnificent Roman
remain, the Arenes, is the scene several
times year, and that which one witnesses
in Spain, while at Beziers. Bayonne, and
Perpiguan the bulls are killed after mild
protest, sayoring of comic opera, by the
local authorities.
At Marseilles (according to our Paris
correspondent the scene on Ascension
Day was unusually lively. Two celebrated
matadors, Guerrite and Conejito. were
especially engaged. Out of the six bulls
killed one had been rather unfairly treat
ed. The audience demanded a seventh.
but Guerrita refused. An affray followed,
during which the spectators flung the
chairs and foo;stools at the heads OF the
buIl-fighters. In the end the police cleared
the arena and arrested a handful Of riot
ers.
Moreover, there seems very good reason
TO believe that the pleasure caterers for
the British visitors at Boulogne intend this
summer, with the cooperation OF the civic
authorities to endue that town with bull
fighters on a full scale. 1t may be hoped
that French opinion, which in the north
at least is, We believe. largely antagonistic
to bull fighting, will protest energetically
against this proposal.

Regarding Virginia Politics.

To the Editor of The Times:
VIII you permit me to correct error oi
omission in your published statements OF my view
on Virginia politics in this mornings issue of
The Times?
/ wish TO say that / did not intend to give
the impression that the people OF Virginia are
in favor of the whole programme OF expansion
with all which that implies. think they are
untedly opposed 10 a large standing army and
to the general system OF a military domination
in this or any other country. l am afraid that
/ did not make myself sufficiently clear on that
point to the reporter for The Times who inter-
viewed me.
VIII you also let me explain that am heartily
in favor OF the popular election of United States
Senators; that | endorse on the general PROPOSE
tion the action of the Reform League: and that,
though in favor OF Senator Martins reelection to
the Senate, am, nevertheless strong supporter
of the popular election OF United States Senator's
and that if had to choose between loyalty to
Senator Martin and loyalty to the great prin-
ciple of popular elections of United States Sena-
tors. would surely desert the former in favor Of
the latter? l think, however. that no such choice
is now necessary in Virginia politics.
II you viii kindly publish this statement in
elaboration OF yesterdays article you will greatly

Wall Street and the railway world are
inclined finally, after hearing the very spe-
cifc denials OF the New York Central
Pennsylvania deal to believe that there
has as yet been no actual consolidation or
even close combination OF interests be-
tween the two systems, although denials
very nearly as specific have in times past
frequently preceded official confirmation
OF important news of this kind. The facts
of the case seem to be that the two sys-
TENS have entered into an agreement OF
some kind for the adjustment and main
tenance of rates, an agreement OF much
consequence and Importance that may
easily be the forerunner OF the actual con-
solidation. AS an indication OF the cordial
relations existing between the trunk lines
chiefly through the influence OF Messrs.
w X. Vanderbilt, A. j. Cassatt, J. p.
Morgan, and J. ]. Hill it is announced that
the eastbound freight rates will be ad-
vanced on July "a. 1t is plain that only
harmonious action between the Pennsyl-
vania, the New York Central, the Balti-
more and Ohio. and the Erie roads could
make such a move permanent. Details OF
what advance will be made and how the
higher rates will be distributed in the diff
ferent classes of traffic are not forthcom-
ing at the present time. A further meet
ing will be held between the presidents
and the traffic officials OF the various COM
panies interested in this move to round up
the situation.

from that time forward he has gone stead
