The CITY AND THE SEA.
To none the city bends seryile knee
Purse proud and seornful on her heighta 4

To none the city bends a servile knee.
Purse proud and scornful on her heights she
stands,
And at her feet the great white moaning sea
Shoulders necessarily the gray gold sands.
One, the Almighty's child since time began,
And one, the might OF Manmon, born Of clods,
For all the city is the work of man.
But all the sea is Gods
And she, between the ocean and the town
Lies cursed of one and by the other blest,
Her staring eyes, her long, drenched hair, her
gown
Sea laved and soiled and dank above her breast.
She, image Of her GOD, since life began;
Life, but the might Of Mammon, born of clods,
Her broken body, spoiled and spurned Of man.
But her sweet soul is Gods

OF every $10ep paid out by the railways
for operating expenses. Sc went to pay
wages and salaries of employees.
Now observe how large a proportion
of railway earnings goes to pay the
wages of labor as compared with the
proportion going to pay interest or divi-
dends to the holders of railway securi-
ties. In the following table the figures
are given to even millions only:
Total earnings from operation. 81 1913, 0O0, 900
Paid in salaries and wages ..-..... sos, 000,O 900
Other operating expenses ............ 100000
Interest bonds and other debts... 25S, 600, 600
Dividends stock ..........s........ lll,O00.O00
Permanent Improvements ............ 22,Oo0,0O0
Other payments ......,-...-........-. 2l,OO0,000
1t must be remembered in consider
ing the above that very large proper
ton of the "other operating expenses"
and of the expenditure on permanent
improvements actually goes to pay
wages. In the purchase of rolling
stock, for example, the bulk of the
purchase money goes to pay wages of
workmen in locomotive and ear shops
just as would be the case if the rolling
stock were built in the company's own
shops. Making allowance for this, it
seems probable that not less than go
per cent of the total receipts of rail-
way companies is paid out directly as
wages to labor.

afternoon in response to his instructions to
use and urge every effort for the relief OF
the be.eaguered ministers at Pekin. but for
some unexplained reason declined to make
I, public.
From other sources 1t was learned, how
ever that Admiral Remey's message re-
lated TO the military conditions at lien
Tsin and Taku and the prospects of d for
ward movement on the part of the allied
forces in the direction of Pekin-
II is understood that Admiral Remey

from Tien Tsin on the goth Instant for the
rescue of the foreigners imprisoned at the
Chinese capital The strength and COM
position Of this force, as well as the per-
sonality of the officer in command, are not
definitely known.
There is reason however. for the BELIEF
that Admiral Remey counts upon having
A good force of Americans in the column
This will be by the arrival of expected re-
. Inducements at Taku before the date
named. The 9th Infantry. under Lieut. Col.
Coolidge numbering about LOO men. IS now

DUMPING REFUSE IN ROCK CREEK
Order the Practice to
BE Stoned.

Mr.. G. L. Nicholson, general manager of
the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company,
several days ago invited the attention of
the District Commissioners to the fact that
certain parties were dumping refuse on the
east bank of Rock creek north of NJ street
bridge. and that the material so deposited
runs down into the creek when dumped
from wagon or cart. Whenever. there Is
heavy rain, wrote Mr.. Nicolson, a very
large amount of the material so dumped
falls into the stream and damages the COM
pany by forming deposits between the en-
trance of the canal into Rock creek and the
outlet into the river. He, therefore. ear
nestly requested the Commissioners to stop
the dumping.
From a report made to the Commission
ers by Mr.. a. l.. Thomas, an inspector in
the engineer department, it appears that
the dumping over the sides of the creek
has been stopped by the police. with the
exception OF material from the street clean
ins department. which department. stated
Mr. Thomas. has a dumpman on either side
Cf the stream, about 20 feet above the NJ
street bridge, almost on a line with Olive
street.
In forwarding this report to the Com
missioners MIR. c. NJ. Hunt. the computing
engineer of the District, stated that if the
street cleaning department is to be allowed
t. dump in this locality. as seemed to him
to be It's practice he desired the same
privilege to be allowed the surface depart
ment. Mr.. Hunt added that he could see
no fair reason why the large expense TO
which his division.is put In complying with
the order Of the Commissioners prohibiting
dumping on the banks of Rock creek should
be incurred If existing circumstances are
to be continued. He explained that he has
not the slightest desire to suggest that the
street cleaning department be deprived of
any proper privilege or advantage, but
simply requested equal treatment for his.
the surface division of the engineer depart
ment. O..
Upon the recommendation of Capt. New
conner. assistant to the Engineer Commits
sicEer. the Commissioners have ordered all
dumping TO cease.

From Unknown AssaiIant.

Charles Slaughter, colored, eighteen years
old. was shot in the leg by an unknown
man at the corner of eth and NJ streets

to the hospital this morning, but refused
to allow the removal of the bullet after
the doctors had located it. Slaughter
