PASSENGER TRAFFIC OF STEAM
RAILROADS.

1t will be seen that the DEVELOPMENT
or traffic was continuous until the panic
year 1893. Since that time the south
ern railroads have lost $500, 900 passen-
gers. Had the increase which char
acterized the period from 1890 to 1894
continued, probably the new station
would now be called upon to accommo-
cate eight or ten million passengers
more than it will have to accommo-
date during the first year of its full
use.
The decline in traffic is due to threa
causes The depression of wages limit
ing age-earners' travel, trolley corn
petition and the DEVELOPMENT OF the
long distance telephone system. Rail-
road men claim that the general nuh-
lie has little idea Of the loss to rail.

WIZ ADMINISTRATION.

When Elihu Root was first mentioned
as Secretary Ayers successor, com
plant was made that he is not a mill
tary man, but lawyer. 1t was said,
on the other hand that a lawyer was
most needed, because of the numerous
legal problems recurring in the admin
istration of the former Spanish prov
inces and demanding prompt solution
by the chief of the war department. An
other answer to the objection to Mr.
Roots appointment comes from an I'M
expected source. The Army and Navy
Journal thinks it wise to select ci-
william who has no military record and
no ambition to display his knowledge
of military affairs The chief difficult
ties in the war department during the
past generation hrye arisen under the
administration of ex-soldiers.''
This is testimony to a notorious fact,
and the inference is sound, providing
the direction of military movements is
assigned to a professional soldier of ex-
perience and ability The appointment
of Mr.. Root is in harmony with the con-
tention that the duties of the secretary
of war should be confined to the main
tenance and supply of the military es-
tablishment, and should not include the
management of a campaign or the di-
rection of forces in the field. That duty
devolves logically upon the generaIcom-
manding, who is presumed to be espe-
1fa %, LII re
the general lacks the necessary ability
or the confidence of the army or of the
administration, he should be displaced
by one who meets all the qualifications
of the office, and to him should the
planning of campaigns be entrusted
Four years of fighting were required
to compel the acceptance of this prin-
ciple in the civil war, and though it has
been approved by experience and argu-
ment, the lesson seems not to have been
thoroughly learned. If the presidents
cabinet were organized upon a basis
similar to that of some European min
istries, wherein the war portfolio is
held by a professional soldier the in
congruity of making the war secretary
virtually commander in-ehief of the
army would be less evident than 1t is,
much friction would be avoided, and
greater efficiency secured. AS matters
go, however there has not been a gen
eral commanding who has not had
trouble with the secretary of war, and
in more than one instance, the dis
agreement has been so acute as to make
personal intercourse next to impossible.
Gen. Schofield had fewer difficulties
with the war office than any of his pre-
decessors, but even he has put himself
on record as recommending very inn
portant changes in the present system.

ter corporation erected a station 100
teet by 81 feet which was used by the
Old Colony and in part by the Boston
& Worcester. This station was at the
junction of KneelaRd and Eliot streets.
In lS47 the number of trains per diem
mad increased to twelve. This included
six to and from Worcester two to or
from Saxonville, and four to or from
Newton Lower Falls. By 1852 the num-
per or trains In and out of the station
mad increased to forty-tWo per diem.
About this time season tickets were IN
troduced, but could be obtained only by
vote of the directors
Traffic has now developed to such an
extent that the Boston & Albany takes
to the new station a business that re-
qulreS 1870 inward or outward trains per
day, and there will be total of $50 per
diem when the Providence business is
ADDED. The number of passengers per
year is now about six and a quarter
millions upon the Boston & Albany
alone, to and from the Hub. The earliest
available statement of the passenger
traffic of the steam railroads to and
from Boston dates back to 1870, and be-
low we give the totals Of the four roads
which will use the new station, at Diff
ferent periods, and also of the roads
using the northern station during the
same time. This gives an idea of tn !.
magnitude Of the traffic, it's increase up
to the panic year, 1898, and its decline
since that year:

BY the removal of the Boston and AL

movements are added to the duties of
the switchmen and the number Of trains
increased from 275 to 1856 which is only
IL less than the number handled at the
Broad street station in Philadelphia
When the Providence division comes

the new station has considerably more
than doubled in twenty years, and ac-
cording to the last report amounted to

Concerning the vacation schools which
have been organized by woman's
clubs, civic clubs and similar bodies in
Worcester and other cities, it is to be
remembered that chapter 246 of the acts
Of 1899 provides that the school COM
mittee of any city or town may estab-
fish and maintain schools to be kept
open during the whole or any part Of
the summer vacation, but attendance
upon any such school shall not be com
pulsory or count as part OF the school
attendance required by law" If the
experiments now in progress prove to
be both useful and economical, the In
tent is that the school committees shall
ultimately take charge Of them. The
movement has some kinship with the
New York plan of throwing open the
seheolyards to the children as play
grounds in summer. 1t has occurred
to many that it is absurd to maintain
costly school establishments and yet
shut the people out of them for two
months of the year. Under the scheme
generally adopted, these vacation
schools seem to be an extension of the
kindergarten principle, imposing a
minimum Of work and only such re-
straint as may be helpful and therefore
desirable. In some instances, instruc-
tors have been employed to teach the
children games. The principle at the
base Of this enterprise is sound enough.
and il should be possible to apply it
without adding materially to the ex-
psnse Of the public school system.

The output Of the South African gold
mines for June was the largest on re-
cord. For the first six months of the
current year, the product was 1855, S65
ounces, or early 20 per cent in excess
OF that for the first half of 1898, more
than double that of 1897, and nearly
two and half times that of 1896 for
corresponding periods. Meanwhile we
have news of q largely increased output
from the Klondike and a not ineonsid-
4efei Sc for the United States
There is a business pointer in these
statistics, for nothing more stimulates
industrial activity than the swelling OF
the volume of money metal, and so long
as this increase of gold production con-
tinues. the probabilities are strongly
against any Industrial relapse.
