yves as MS reasons the dismissal Of
PROFESSOR y. A Ross last November

ing MS conviction that Ross was dis
missed partly because of Mrs.
Stanford's objections 20 the. par
ticlpation OF university instruc-
tors in public political meet
ings. partly because of her obsec-
tons to the specific contents Of certain
Of Or. Ross pubhc utterances and
partly because OF fear of vagueIv

was believed that his teachings were
likely To- foster, Professor LOveJoy- con-
tinues as follows.
IT DO not know what is nrsant by the
somewhat cant phrase academic tree
DOM it seems to lend itself readily to

tainiy conceive chat the dismissal for
such reasons, of an instructor whom
the president of the university has re-
garded as a fit person to retaia in
wolves an abridgement OF liberties
which it is the right and duty Of Gniz
versf-y teachers to demand

creasingly apparent, however, that the

a rather seriously divergent view Ct the

resignation.

Inc city Insurance. companies are
now engaged in collecting available STA
tislics of fires OS which electricity was
known or supposed to be the cause.
These are to be collated for general in
formation and as = preliminary for ac-
tion OF sixty millioHaire insurance
companies domestic and foreign, doing
business IN the Dpited States, only
thirty-one made any profit in the de-
cade ended Dec. 81 last. Twenty-nine
lost money, and many Of them to a
very large amount.
Some .haTa' assumed the view that
electricity is more blamed than it de-
serves TO be, but this view comes from
those whose financial Interests are in

saEks.

ENGLAND NOT WORRIED.

ton on the High Seas.

Has No Fear or American JOmp6b1
ton on the High Seas.
New York. May There is a good
deal of indammatory rhetoric in a Por-
ton Of the English press on the sub
ject of Mr.. J. Pierpont Aorgan's raids
on English shipping. says the London
correspondent of the Tribune. but il
would be foolish for Americans to de-
ceive themselves respecting the real
Judgment of the shipping interests IN
England.
IT is an open secret that American
competition in ocean freighting is not
feared when syndicate steel interests
buy fleets which can be sailed under
a foreign flag alone, but only when 1t
threatens TO cheaper construction of
ships and create a genuine commercial
marine under the American flag. AS
facts stand, the Leyland line has made
good bargain with Mr.. Morgan and
cleared a handsome profit. Other lines
and the shipyards of the north of
England, the Thames eand scotland
would be fully employed in replacing
inferior with superior fleets.
English agitation over the operations
of the syndicate IS fictitious ri Mr.
Morgan goes into business as a ship
broker on a large scale. half Ike com
merCial marine of England viii be his
for the asking But. convenient as this
policy may be for speculative pUr-
poses, il viii not create an American
merchant marine.
