The law which congress enacted on
March 2, 1893, must be complied with
by August l Of this year. 1t requires
every railroad company engaged in
Interstate commerce to equip its cars
with power or train brakes and auto
matte couplers. II the roads do not do
this any employee receiving injury
shall not be deemed to have assumed
any risk by continuing in the service,
even though he had acknowledged
that the train upon which he worked
was not properly equipped. Last De-
cember the roads found they could not
comply with the law as soon as re.
Quired, and an extension was given
until the list Of next August. When
the law was passed only 23 per cent
Of the freight ears in use were sup
piled with air brakes, and but a slight
ly larger proportion had automatic
couplers. Four years later SO per cent
had air brakes and so per cent we're
fitted with %couplers. The number Of
railroad employees killed during the
twelves months ending with June 80,
1893, was 2.727. and for the year end
ing June 80, 1897, the number was
1888. On January 1, 1900, over SO
per cent Of freight car in service had
automatic couplers and over GO per
cent had air brakes. The increase in
per cent owe hat Of January l, 1899,
however, is so slight, that unless ire
mendous efforts are made Immediately
few companies will be in a position
to say hat they can fully comply with
the law.--Detroit Free Press.

London, Sept. 9.-The English press
does not like the game of blind mans
bun in progress at Picking, but it Is not
prepared to say SO plainly. 1t was
without advices respecting the Russ
ian proposal for the withdrawal of
troops from the Chinese capital and
the oracles in the Vosges are silent
now in regard to the German adapta-
ton of that scheme for negotiating
with the empress dowager and man
darins instead of cutting of their
heads or furnishing them otherwise.
The English press when in doubt takes
a strong line and busters. 1t has
done this on general principles since
the foreign legations were attacked
and has insisted that the empress
dowager must be deposed and the
guilty m%andarins be punished and ade-
quate safeguards be taken to prevent
the recurrence Of the outrages and
crimes against civilization. It has
never explained how this could be done
unless the powers were prepared to
assume responsibility Of dividing and
governing China.
The solution which wouldhave been
popular in England would have. been
the adoption by the American govern
ment Of a distinctly punitive policy,
enforced by the employment of an ar
my of $4,000 troops. The British gov
eminent would have followed the lead
of the American state department and
have largely increased its own mill.

equipped to satisfactorily discharge the
