RAILWAY REFORMS IN FRANCE.
Companies shortcomings Attacked
OmciaIIy by Means OF the CircuIar.
CO. ID Pall Nh Gazettel

One OF the principal occupations of
French Ministers OF Public Works is to
issue comminatOry circulars to the rail-
way companies. NJ. Baudin. the present
Minister. being a Socialist. and in conse-
qucnce a fond believer in reforms, does
rather more circularizing than his pTede
cessoTs. a month or two ago he thunder
ed against the, unpunctuality prevalent on
French lines, and today he admonishes the
companies to do away with a variety Of
other shortcomings. They are ordered to
dispense with ancient dlapidated car
riages, to improve the service on the less
frecucntod lines. to put an end to the in
teTminable dawdling OF their slow trains,
to abolish that terrible infictiOn the mix
ed goods and passenger train, and ia gen
eral 10 do much that is habiually left uu-
done for the comfort of passengers. Also
they are to provide every railway station
with a book in which irate travellers may
record their complaints and TO take meas
ures TO ensure that these complaints be
! duly considered"
This circular is quite unlikely to mark
the beginning OF the millennium as re-
CARDS railway travelling in France the
companies being sublimely Indifferent TO
such ephemeral literature as ministerial
circulars. What is more. il Is very fortu-
state is directly interested in the railway
( companies paying their way. The i'm
provements advocated by M. Baudin would
be costly and, in the long run. would have
TO be paid for by the government-that
is, by the taxpayer. This difficulty has no
weight, of course with NJ Baudin who,
like the good Socialist he is. esteems that
the community may legitimately be sad
died with the cost Of putting in practice
any and every Utopian scheme.
While on the subject of French railways
l may mention that some apprehension ex-
! lists as to whether the companies will be
in position to deal with the heavy extra
/ traffic sure to be caused by the exhibition
The rolling stock of almost all the compa-
MES has long been uotoriOusIy inadequate
even for ordinary needs. With a view to
meeting the special requirements OF next
year large numbers of engines and car
riages have been ordered, but the giving
of the orders has been postponed to the
last moment, with the result that there is
much doubt as to whether it will be pos
sible TO execute them the manufacturers
having more work on hand than they can
get through.

A successful attempt to fix a permanent
tidal plane for the Chesapeake Bay has
been recently made by the United States
Coast and Geodetic Survey During the
last fiscal year nearly forty stations were
occupied. al thirteen of which we are IN
possession OF simultaneous tidal Gbserva-
tions. extending over one complete luna
tiOn.
The average tide for the entire bay is
about one foot. possibly less. For Old
Point Comfort we have TWO and One-half
feet. for the mouth OF the Potomac one
foot. for Washington. three feet. for Rich
mond three feet; Elk River. az the head
of the bay two feet and Annapolis, less
than one foot. The wind effect however. IS
sometimes more than the total tide For
example. at Baltimore the wind effect may
amount 70 three feet while the tide proper.
uninfeuced by local disturbances. is only
one-third as much. This dimuniIiOn IN
the height Of the tides as We come north
ward from the entrance and the subse
quent increase as we continue on in the
same direction. is one OF the peculiar feat
ures of the tidal phenomena Of the bay.
The small range at Annapolis is due part
ly TO the change in the width OF the bay.
but principally TO the fact that there IS an
interference AT this point between the in
coming and outgoing tidal waves. When
the crest Of the sOuthbOund movement
reaches the mouth Of the Severn River IL
meets the uorthbound wave from the eaDes.
and a partial naturalization Of the vertical
motion OF the water takes place Another
interesting point in connection with the
subject is that the rate Of progress Of the
tidal wave from the mouth OF the Potomac
TO Washington is somewhat less than that
OF an ordinary steamer so that a vessel
requiring the greatest depth possible would
be able to enjoy the condition OF high
water during its entire passage up the
river The fact was first brought out by
c. A. SchoJt, many years ago. when the
Great Eastern. CT transatlantic cable
fame. avaiIsd himself Of this circumstance.
and came TO anchor within few miles OF
the Capital.

A story is boing told which, if not
altogethor true, at any rate serves
very beautifully to illustrate the
American characteristic of giving
slight heed to rank and place az
against efficiency and daring and su-
promo achievement. The story has
to do with Mr.. Mckinley, and it re-
lates that while visiting one Of the
camps during tho recent southern
tour he chanced to bo strolling about
unattended, and sought to pass a
certain line which was patroiled by Il
vigilant sentinel. The sentinel
promptly stopped him and demanded
the countorsign.

said Mr.. Mckinley.
