Russia recently has had an oppor-
tunity of comparing different types or
locomotives. and has decided that those
from America are in every way the
most satisfactory. Those made by Rus
sian concerns have proved practically
worthless. and the other European
makes are not entirely satisfactory.
The Baldwin Works. of Philadelphia,
has already furnished a large number
and future orders will doubtless be
placed there. In iron and steel manu-
factues America has no competitor
BY improved machinery and progress
sive methods we are able to underbid
foreign concerns, to turn out work
quickly, and more satisfactorily. Local
pride cannot stand against these in

We confess that we do not under
stand this correspondent, since he has
misstated propositions that have been

state the Regular Republican position
exactly. They are willing and anxious
for two senators to be chosen. and will
support any two men who are even
fairly qualified for the office. Under
the tenders they have made. which are
matters of record. two Union Repub-
ucans might have been named. They
are willing to elect one senator, and
he need not be a Regular Republican.
They will agree to any plan which
shall not disgrace the State by the
election OF Addicks. They are pre-
pared to put aside every personal pref
erence: they have no candidate who
must be elected as The price OF peace
Anyone including j. M. c.. who holds

THE PERISTYLE RESTORED.
An Architectural Screen for Worlds
Feir Terrace Of States.

st. Louis Republic: The imposing
peristyle created by Architect Cass
Gilbert of New York, a complete sys-
tenn Of columns with entablature, fol-
lowing the great hill curve Of the
Worlds fair cascade gardens. has been
restored to that artistic scheme.
1t forms a delicate veil or screen for
facade Of the Art Palace, and serves to
onnec Festival hal and the pagoda
cafes, which form the centerpiece and
extremes Of the Terrace Of States be-
sides closing the great court OF the ex-
position in which lie the grand basin
and the main lagoon.
Designer In Chief Masqueray m his
staff are completing the sketches Of the
peristyle. This effect will be wrought
out of the fourteen heroic groups Of
sculpture, epitomizing, in marble, the
history Of the fourteen original states
of the Louisiana purchase, each group
being connected by an unbroken series
Of Ionic columns with entablature,
tying the whole in artistic harmony.
Originally, the peristyle was a mono
lithic temple of columns, Of which the
round structure. now known as Festi-
val hall, was the centerpiece, crowned
by an oval dome, while the present
pagoda cafes were the extreme ends Of
the semicircular temple. When he
temple effect was torn away to save
the eXpanse which was needed in adj
ditional room for the Art building
proper, the three circular buildings
were left isolated IN the crest of the
hill.
Thine architecture of these three
smaller buildings was more richly en-
bellished, but the great gaps Of nearly
one-sixteenth of a mile, remained to
emphasize the isolation of the buildings
overawed by the 1000 feet of facade
presented by the Art Palace. The Art
Palace was moved back $50 feet into
the forest of the plateau. Still. he
Festival hall and it's sister pagodas
looked lost in the impressive natural
surroundings. The idea of the sculp-
lures. typifying. in allegory. the pro-
gress of the thirteen original states,
was born in mind Of Director Of
Works Taylor.
1t believed the perspective OF the
picture from the main court on the
lagoon level, but the first principles Of
art seemed to demand a greater COM
pactness. Then the artists returned to
the idea of the New York architect. Be
tween the groups Of sculpture Of the
states were introduced ionic columns
Joined at the lines Of their capitals by
an entablature or roof which bound
them together. Much of the original
grouping of these pillars, as conceived
by Mr.. Gilbert, has been preserved in
the latter treatment of this architect
ural center of the exposition.

UEE MARINE A
Why the Chinese Continue the Prec-
tlco OF BUILDING Junka.

tiCc o. oulIuiUS JbINss
Casters Magazine: Being so we'll
able to build vessels of foreign type
suggests the query why the Chinese
should continue to build junks? Here,
again, Is another example Of official re-
strictions cramping natural enterprise.
The shipping cleared out OF Hong Kong
In 1899 amounted to 27,975 vessels, of
which %, sol were junks. Now. foreign
built vessels can trade only to the
open ports, but there are numberless
other centers Of rad In China TO which
junks can ply. These pay custom dues,
assessed by the local hoppe, and vary
ing with his degree of rapacity n the
astuteness of the skipper or ship own
err. But the dues are Invariably higher
for vessels of foreign type. Customs
passes may be obtained at the port of
departure and are recognized by the
officials of the imperial marine Gus
toms, who a V no power to levy du-
ties on cargo carried in native bottoms.
When clearing at the Hong Kong
harbor office a junk pays a fee and re-
ceives q paper on which are stated the
nature Of the cargo n the alleged
destination, n a recommendation to
the crew to succor any distressed sea-
men they may meet, and to carry no
stinkpots. There are nc load-line reg
ulations, the number of passengers and
crew is immaterial, the foo question
the business of the master. no side
lights-it costs oil to burn them-no
vexatious rules and regulations what
ever, and this the Cinnamon dearly
love, for her he can economic to his
hearts content. On the rivers steam
boats are permitted to stop only at
certain stations, yet passengers will
travel twenty miles in a direction OPP
posite to their route in order to catch
a steamer in preference to trusting
themselves inc their belongings to ma
i've craft. Were all disabilities re-
moved we should soon the picturesque
but antiquated junk disappear.
