THE MEETING OF THE LEG
STATURE.

The meeting of the Legislature is
an important event to the people OF
Maryland. This year it brings to-
gcthcr an allie body of law makers,
both parties being well represented.
The Republican minority is so strong
that the session may be quite lively.
At any rate the Democrats will have
to he vigilant. Some important legis-
lation is contemplated, and the State
needs some important Legislation.
Good wholesome general laws are
wanted. but the smaller the number of
local laws enacted the better it will be.
The General Assembly Of 1902 has an
,rtunity to render conspicuous
service and win the gratitude of the
public.

CONDITION OF TREASURY.

"The Treasury is in a condition of I'M
exampled strength" said Secretary Gage
Tuesday, when asked to review briefly
the Treasusy situation at the close of the
year.
"Only month ago, in my annual re-
port to Congress, reviewed these con-
ditions The figures for the last month
have made but little change. For the
calen dar year we show receipts in excess
of the ordinary expenditures amounting
roundly to $1OO,OOO,O0O. Such an excess
might have resulted in serious embarrass-
ment had not the Department been able
by means of this surplus to reduce the
public debt in large amounts. Since April
1 last the Treasury has redeemed and can
celed United States bonds to the par value
of $5s, ia 700, which have been applied
to the sinking fund, and the disbursement
resulting therefrom was 72,226,S45. The
available cash on hand is, therefore, only
about $50, OOO, 900 larger than the amount
held year ago.
with April /, 1897, the result is most graf
flying. On the latter day the Treasury
held money of all kinds to the amount of
S25O,s73,OOO, including $loO,Oop,ooo as a
gold reserve, leaving, therefore, $l5O,0CO,-
900 as cash balance. Today in money
of all kinds the Treasury holds $296 ,G59,-
OG0, and, if we deduct the $150,000, 900
now held is a gold reserve, the balance
stands at S146 00O, 900 or 500 1000 less
than it was April /, 1897. 1t will be seen,
therefore, that substantial equilibrium
has been maintained.
There has been a very material in
crease in the volume of money in circu-
lation since March 1, 1897, as well as in
the amount per capita. The volume of
money on that date, outside the Treasury
was 81 ,G75, 694, 953 and the amount per
capita was 1928 Il On December last the
amount of money outside the Treasury,
was $2,25O.256,23 $50 and the amount per
capita was $2573 The increase in
amount therefore, was 1914 ,56l,21, and
the Increase per capita was $3.50.
The amount Of gold coin and gold Ger
tificates in circulation in creased from
SOD, $50, 515 on March 1, 1897, to 1914 300
800 on December /, 1901. Every other kind
of money in circulation is greater in
amount now than on March /, 1897, with
the single exception of the Treasury notes
of the acts of July /, 1890. The amount
of these in circulation December /, 1901,
was only $4O,ol2, 6ss, as against $s5,546,
621 on March /, 1897. This reduction in
volume grows out of the natural opera
ton of the act of July II, 1890.
THE increase in the amount Of matte nal
banknotes in circulation during the period
in question was 1872 ,l:2, ,3l. This in
crease is mainly attributable To the act OF

General Leonard Wood, before his de-
parture for Havana, did some effective
work for the cause of reciprocity with
Cuba. He said Cuba must have re-
duction of the tariff on SUI gar exported to
the United States or the island will have
to face poverty and consequent disorder.
She would then become menace to our
health and the United States would have
no business relations with her worth
speaking about" He said that if reel
procity were established the United States
could count on doing a business with the
island amounting to $780, 900 a year
within three years. He further said that
the United States produced but 100000
tons of sugar and consumed 400, O0o tons
and that the consumers paid "about two
cents pound for the privilege of foster
ing this artificial industry" Mr.. Oxnald d,
of the American Beet Sugar Company, is
making a vigorous fight to prevent legis-
lation inmical to his interests and is said
to have seriously interested the President
in his scheme of paying Il bounty to the
Cuban producers in lieu of reducing the
duty.

THE LABOR ARBITRATION
BOARD.

The acceptance by Mr.. Cleveland of
place on the Labor Arbitration Com
mittee is generally commended. The New
Orleans Times Democrat says:
THE announcement that Mr.. Grover
Cleveland has accepted the invitation to
serve as member of the committee re-
Gently appointed by the Civic Federation
at New York will crafty everyone who
desires that differences hereafter arising
between labor and capital may be peace
fully and honorably composed. There
was a time when this appointment would
not have been altogether acceptable
to many countrymen of Mr.. Cleveland's.
That period has however hap
PLY passed. Hostility toward Mr..
Cleveland, awakened by political
contention, has practically ceased to
exist Time, the wisest of all historians,
has dealt kindly with the only living ex-
President of the United States. The
American people admire men of courage
and independence, Of ability and integrity.
They respect and honor Mr.. Cleveland
for the reason that they recognize that
his sense of justice is keen, his sense Of
right is clear and his sense of public duty
is high. They realize that in his life and
in his character is illustrated the native
American spirit which enables citizens to
view difficult situations steadily and to
view them whole to reach conclusions
surely and to emuncate decisions in no
uncertain tone"

EASTERN EUROPE UNQUiET.

The business depression that affects all
Central and Eastern Europe increases the
irritability, it appears, Of the masses of
the people and renders them susceptible
to all sorts of agitations. In Warsaw and
other parts of Russia riots break out on
the slightest provocation. and the so call
ed Wreshen scandal in Polish Prussia has
led to regrettable incidents. The Govern
or General of Warsaw felt obliged recent
ly to visit the German Consul Gene ana
apologize for the attack made by the Pol
ish students on the consulate. The Rus
sian Government will replace the coat of
arms destroyed by the students with a new
one, and the offenders will be punished.
In Austrian Poland there is a similar dis
order, and at Kemburg the Polish popu-
lace made a demonstration befor, the
German consulate The incident would
have no importance if it were an isolated
event, but the Poles have great political
influence in Austria and political conse-
quences are likely to follow, even the
1Ilpplc alllduCC UCluS iiiiPCliCu ~ thS
hostility of the Poles and Czechs. Count
Goiuchowski, the Imperial Minister Of
Foreign Affairs, himself Pole, ordered
the severest measures to be taken against
the anti-German demonstrators at Lem
burg and Cracow, but was opposed, it ap-
pears, by Herr koerber, the Austrian
Premier, on account of the opposition of
the Polish Deputies in the Reichsrath, the
Emperor agreeing with the latter as to the
danger of exciting Polish sentiment. Pol
ish workmen have taken the matter up
and held meetings to denounce the apathy
of the Government on the subject of the
treatment of the Poles. The impendin g
suspension of the constitution by the EN-
peror Francis Joseph-with the general
approval of the public--on account OF the
racial animosities of Czechs and Germans,
which prevent the Reichsrath from rati-
flying the treaty of union with Hungary,
NAV alter the situation for the better by
restricting the suffrage within safer limits.
1t is conceded on all hands tina. the fac
lions are irreconcilable and that the
Reichsraths, as at present constituted,
cannot transact needed business.-Bdti

 to have Iunched, and made a brief an nouncement of the accident to the peo- pie who were silently gathered on the Steps Healighted from the carriage and walked few steps and was clearly under the stress of great feeling. Then he retraced his steps to the carriage, and turning said:
 '"We have met with an accident. One of the party, faithful friend, has been killed, and our driver fatally injured. Under the circumstances it is, of course, impossible to say more to you than that I deeply appreciate your kind greeting" Then he went on to Stock bridge.
 The presidents programme to-day in cluded a journey from this state through Connecticut, and he was to stop at Lenox and Stockbridse and Great Burlington in Massachusetts and at New Milford and Bridgeport in Con- necticut. At Bridgeport the yacht Sylph was to meet him and take him back to Oyster Bay. The accident, how ever, caused a change in the inter- mediate stops between Lenox and Bridgeport, the president deciding to proceed directly to the latter place and to at once embark on the Sylph for Oyster Bay.
 William Craig, the secret service agent who was killed, was a man who had been on duty as presidential guard at the white house for many years He was forty-eight years old. and was giant in physique. He weighed over 200 pounds and was more than six feet tall. He was a former member of the Queens Grenadiers, and was an expert broadswordsman; years ago he gave exhibitions with Duncan Ross, and was credited with many victories over him. Craig caught and arrested crank at Montpelier, who was attempting to reach the president, on this trip.

their labor. would be deprived of work for a long time.
 'The operators were compelled to en- pIoy police at their own expense to guard the new men employed to man the pumps to save their mines. The guards and the law authorizing them are denounced. and when private citi- zens like Bedali are murdered the state authorities are denounced for sending troops to preserve the peace.
 President Baer devotes considerable space to the efforts at arbitration made by the Civic Federation. He says that every phase of the situation was fully and fairly gone over and the coal com- panies offered to produce all books that would throw any light on the subject; showed them the balance sheet of the different companies; pointed out that the three anthracite coal-carryfng com panies-the Reading, Lehigh Valley and Erie-had not paid dividends on their stock for years; produced the reports showing coal sales. and showed how forty per cent of the anthracite coal is sold in the market below the cost of mining.
 MT. Baer than says that for reasons satisfactory to the managers of the Civic Federation another meeting was never called to hear the report of the subcommittee appointed. and after we adjourned the United Mine Workers started the machinery of their organi- zation in motion and the strike follow ed.''
 The reply concludes as follows: You see, senators, we have discussed this whole subject fully, and I have endeav- ored to show you that sound business management makes it impossible to in- crease wages. We know that the wages are fair and relatively high, and that if the leaders of the bituminous workers had not, for selfish purposes. invaded the anthracite fields, our men would have continued to work peaceably and contentedly.'
