Arc Propositions Out of Date
From the Baltimore Sun

II lOul lnt bdltltlOI6 0uIl
 There are many theories to account for the failure of the Paris Exposition-for it seems to be generally conceded to be a failure, financially and in some other re- spects. Perhaps the troubled aspect of in ternational politics." says the Electrical Review, ''is responsible in some degree for the paucity of exhibits and the small at tendance at the Exposition, but both of these may also be explained by the as sumption that people are becoming tired of eXpositions. Indeed, the necessity of the exposition as d means Of instruction and for bringing together the products of various manufacturing arts and exhibit ing them to prospective customers has practically disappeared. The place Of the exposition is taken very largely by the technical journal. Processes of illustration have reached such perfection and under the stimulus of demand and competition the art of descriptive writing and of adver- Using have so improved that the technical journal virtually brings the exposition to it's readers"
 The almost universal comment of persons returning from the expositions of the last thirty years has been thai they are all alike" This is not strictly true, since the Philadelphia Exposition of 1876 had inven- tionS not to be seen at the Vienna Exposi- tion in 1873, and the present Paris Exposi- ton presents novelties not seen at Chicago ill 1893. But still, in each case 1t was a s fact that the new things were few and not obvious to the hurried observer. To him the bulk of the exhibits were very much alike. The French have genius for spec tacular displays and have made the most possible of their last exposition, but even French originality has its limits. Politics also, as we'll as the inherent difficulty of the task, has been an obstacle. The bad feel ing between the French and English grow ing out the Dreyfus, Fashoda and Boer affairs prevented the English from exhibit ing largely or from visiting Paris, where they were exposed to insult.
 As they had been the principal contribu- tors to gate receipts at previous exposi- tions, their absence made a practical diff ference. An increase of the American con- tingent went far to compensate for the loss

ENSLEY STRIKE
 IS NOT SETTLED
An Open Meeting Was Held Last Night and a Reso-
 Iution Adopted.

There was practically no change in the terday both sides remaining obdurate. The steel mills started on time but are said to have experienced considerable difficulty or account of the short force. The great est trouble was encountered in the open hearth department, where most of the men are said to have quit work.
 It was said by the strikers that several more men left the blooming mill yesterday morning and joined the ranks of the Amal- gamated Association.
 An open meeting was held by the Amal- gamated Association last night, and, in clu9ing merchants and other citizens, it is said that about three hundred persons par tieipated P. H. McGowan was elected chairman of the meeting, and speeches were made by Fred Williams, president of the Trades Council; James H. Leath, dis triet organizer for the American Federation of Labor; President Lassiter of the Build ing and Trades Council; Ed Flynn ana MT. Fitzpatrick, both of the latter being prominent in the United Mine Workers
 
 Mayor Powell of Ensley also made a speech and expressed himself as being in sympathy with the strikers. He thought their cause a just one.
 All of the speeches were well received and every speaker urged the men to stick to what they thought was right.
 The following resolution was adopted:
 Resolved, That we the merchants and citizens of Ensley, Ala, are in full accord with the victimized employees of the Ens1ey steel mills, believing their cause to be just one and we do hereby pledge them our hearty support, moral and financial in their struggle for right and justice.
 The members of the Amalgamated As sociation express themselves as confident that their demands will be compiled with, and that a settlement of the trouble will be reached before the end of this week.

QUERY FROM HEADQUARTERS

Chicago, October 16-The following tele- graphic correspondence between Secretary Heath of the National Republican Commit tee and Governor Roosevelt was given out at Republican National headquarters to- day:
 Hon. Theodore Roosevelt:
 Following matter is being circulated on hand bills in Kansas and other sttaes:
 Governor Roosevelt in a speech in Cooper Institute, New York, in 1896:
 " The way to get rid of Bryanism and its child-labor treubles-is to stand it up against the wall and shoot it to death.
 And a speech made in Chicago just after the great strike: Any person who would join a strike or go near one, ought to be shot
 will the man who earns his bread by labor support the Roosevelt ticket?"
 Please wire today if possible specific answer to above, so that I may repeat it by wire wherever it is being used.

 "Elizabethtown, Ky, October 15. .'P. S. Heath, Chicago:
 Both statements are absolute lies with out one particle of foundation of any sort. I never said anything remotely resembling either statement in Chicago Auditorium or in Cooper Institute. or anywhere else. If responsible people circulate them I suggest a suit for criminal libel. l explicitly de- nied them in Kansas City. They are slan- derous lies which would only be circulated by scoundrels and which were known to be lies by the people who invented them and the people who circulated them.

of the British element, but Americans were not sufficiently numerous to take the place of London excursions. The disquieting state of international politics exercised, no doubt, a depressing influence, which was intensified by the anarchist attempt upon the life of the Shah. But when due al- lowance has been made for everything, it remains, as the Electrical Review says, that the world has outgrown expositions They did very well at certain stage of the development of the arts, but the pre- cesses of illustration and description are now so much improved as to render the exposition unnecessary.

An Authors Plain Mansion

New York Letter in the Pittsburg Dispatch.
 To a casual stranger, Paul Leicester Ford's new house does not look as though il was intended for the abode of a man of letters. There is nothing impressive in the architecture, unless it be its absolute sever ity. Great interest is taken in house, however, and the number of non residents who make a detour through East Seventy seventh street merely to see where the author of Janice Meredith" will live has astonished dwellers in the neighbor- hood. The house will be finished January l and occupied two weeks later by MT. Ford and his bride. Mrs Ford has planned the interior throughout, and the architect declares it will be the most comfortable dwelling in the upper Madison avenue dis trict The first story and trimmings are of Indiana limestone and the upper stories of plain Harvard brick An electric ele- vator will be a feature of the house. An automobile room will be located on the frs. floor. Special arrangement has been made for MT. F'ord's library, said to be one of the finest in New York. Unlike many authors, MT. Ford is Independently wealthy, his father having been wefl-to- do resident of Brooklyn The royalties from Janice Meredith are said to be phenomenal just now.

The Saturday Night Trouble


 The Southern expected some move, so they have had a live engine patroling the track in the vicinity of the crossing for several days, and to make doubly sure they had on Saturday night two engines and a conductor in charge of a train which they put the impromptu siding, put in on Au- gust IL But the B. S. & N. o. was equal to the emergency. About o'clock an en- zine and coach left Selma bearing num- Der of citizens and newspaper men bound for the crossing. About two hundred hands of the B. S. & N. o. were at the place ready to go to work. The engineer and conductor of the Southern train were told to pull the cars off the right of way of the B. S. & N O. Conductor Seals, who is one arm man, stated that he would do nothing of the sort and Engineer c. w. YaW refused to more. The latter was then told to get down from his engine, peacea- bly,, or he would be forced to do so. After some hesitation, with shrug of his should CTS, he said Gentlemen, l yield to the force of superior numbers" and lightly jumped to the ground. Engineer Tipton of the B. S. & N. o. took hold of the throttle of the Southern's engine and moved the cars out of the way.
 The track hands quickly got to work. Flags and torpedoes were sent out on either side to prevent any train on the Southern from coming to harm, and by the glare of burning torches the crossing was put in and train containing a num- Der of cars of timber and rails was run over on the other side.
 The Southerns fast passenger train from Mobile came along a few minutes before the crossing was completed and was delay ed nine minutes in consequence.
 The Birmingham, Selma and New Orleans authorities are rejoicing no little over the success of their venture, for now they have a train on the other side of the Southern's s track and can go on with the laying of the rails and ties of the extension
 After completing the work of putting in the crossing the Birmingham, Selma and New Orleans put eight cars of rails on the other side of the Southerns track. They left two cars of rails with the engine at tached on this side one of the cars being left right over the Southern's side-track, which had been built over when the ap- proach to the crossing was put in, the side track being about five feet lower than the grade of the main line
 Here was an opportunity not to be missed by the Southern and it was eagerly taken advantage of. An engine with eight cars was taken little way up the road and backed at fuIl speed toward the newly laid approach to the crossing, the engineer jump ing from his engine after pulling the throt- tie wide open. There was a crash and the two cars of rails of the Birmingham, Selma and New Orleans were turned bottom side up while cars and ties were piled as hlgn as the telegraph poles.
 the decision of the chancellor The Blr- mingham, Selma and New Orleans attor- news say they are satisfied with the de- cision of the chancellor.
 What the next step will be cannot be told.
