NEW PETITION REQUIRED,
Mrs. Catharine L. Huxford's Case Has
Been Dropped.

Mrs Catharine l.. Huxford's Case Has
Been Dropped.
Early last May Catharine L. Hulk
ford. who was the proprietress of the
Temple street student boarding house
in which there was a case of smallpox
last winter, brought a claim against
the city for damages incident to the
quarantine and other measures taken
by the health authorities In attempting
to prevent the disease from spreading.
The petition was first made to the
court of common council, which body at
once referred it to the board of finance.
After the finance committee had consid-
cred the matter it was returned to the
court of common council with the rec
ommendation that it be referred to the
committee on claims.
However, al this time the old court of
common council went out and the new
court, which came in in June, had moth
ing to do with the petitions made to
the old court. So the matter was prac-
tically outlawed. Now, it Is said, that
in order to resurrect the question a new
petition must be made on Mrs. HuX-
ford's part.
Especial interest has been taken in
the matter owing to the particular cir
cumstances Of the case. 1t appears that
at the time when the smallpox broke
out Mrs Huxford was temporarily i'll.
The excitement following threw her into
nervous prostration, and since then Mrs,
Huxford has not been able to be about
as actively as before.

selves. The President of the United
States is concisely Mr.. Mckinley.
For the American money making Is
the principal thing. The American car
ries on his business without rest and
with certain lack of consideration for
himself. He eats and drinks in the
creates haste. His house, even in the
cities, is mostly very simple, often q
wooden house, and the cities in which
the industries are concentrated, like
Chicago, ST. Louis and others, deserve
to be characterized as nests of smoke.
For the workman In America the
arrangement of the daily life wage is
very favorable. Wages are higher
than anywhere else, and necessaries of
life are comparatively cheaper, though
houses are dearer. While in Germany
the State is compelled to care for the
aged and the invalid, America teaches
its workmen the help yourself motto,
and encourages them to save in time.
AS offsetting our cheap wages of labor
the American uses many labor-savlng
machines. The enormous natural
wealth of the land adds to the above
mentioned favorable conditions, which
are aided further by splendid govern
mental institutions for the support of
industry and agriculture. The CONNER
cial Museum in Philadelphia is an ex-
ample which might serve as a model
for every country in the world. Con-
sidering the manner in which America
fights against the Introduction Of for
eign products, Germany would be to-
day entirely justified to tax the PREDICTS
of the American trusts with differ
entail tariff.
'The United States seeks to control
all America They will eventually win
for themselves South and Central
American export markets. This should
serve as warning to Europe to seek
in time the same goal and to form
European 'zollverein.' In America q
more capable race is at work than the
European. Europe need expect no con-
sideration Necessity will compel Eu-
rope to take the steps later which to-
day are neglected. The United States
are working giant in his youth. This
is exemplified best by the recklesness
with which they attack the old gentle
man, the Spaniard, and the Joy which
they have experienced over the easily
secured victory. Germany must look
about In time for other avenues of trade
for her industries as q substitute for
the decline of the market in North
America, and must seek to cultivate a
market in the country itself, for export
to North America, for Germany is on
the point Of dying out. For the pres
ent the Americans cannot do without
Germany, and Germany cannot do
without the Americans The arrange
ment of commercial treaties is a mat
ter Of mutual interest, but as on the
other side pan-American union is the
aim, so in Europe should it be a 'zoll-
verein.' philadelphia Record
