budget figures for 1893 would be made public on
Wednesday. A comparative table will be given
out. explaining them. The Controller said that
the budget would be about 81 100000 less than the

There's not a heath. however rude.

There's not heart, however cast

whereas, kissing has been decided by the mcdi

tunity. Experience has shown that they
can scarcely hope 10 gain concession OF
the principle from the House of Lords SO
long as a Liberal Government is in power.
There il no doubt. however that the
hereditary legislators would 20 much
further for a Tory Premier like Mr.. Ball
ForR than they were willing to go for
Mr.. GLADSTONE.
How are we to account for the apparent
change in the attitude Of the Unionist
Government toward the Irish National
lists, change attested not only by Mr..
WYNDHAM's promise to introduce a Land
Purchase bill, but also by Lord DUB
LEY's admission of grave defects in the
existing system of Irish Administrations
There is widespread and growing belief
that the change is due TO the personal
influence of EDWARD VII. who desires
to be King of Ireland in fact as we'll IA

confidence and gratitude Of the Irish
people only by securing for them large
measure of control over distinctive ely
Irish affairs.

The Carroll ID. Wright Bill.

We unwittingly did injustice to the
Hon. JOSEPH g. CANNON in our remarks
on the bill appropriating $50, 600 from the
United States Treasury for the COM
pensation and expenses of the Anthra-
cite Coal Strike Commission, so-called--
a commission appointed by Mr.. RoosE-
WELT in his private capacity. and bear
ing no relation TO the Federal Govern
ment except in tho matter OF receiving
pay from the Federal Treasury.
We have spoken Of this epoch-making
measure as the Cannon bill That is
not the correct designation. Mr.. CAM
NON did not draw it; he merely intro
duced it on request.
The author of the $4,000 appropria-
ton bill and the person who requested
Mr.. CANNON TO introduce it were one
and the same; namely, Mr. CARROLL d.
WRIGHT, member of the Commission
and its Recorder.
IL was Mr.. CARROLL d. WRIGHT who
devised the ingenious provision that the
statutes prohibiting double salaries or
extra compensation to Federal officers
already receiving at least $500 year
should be ignored in this case.
Mr.. WRIGHT already draws a Fed
eral salary of s., 900. The extraordinary
measure should be known az the Carroll

The Governors Solicitudc

Governor ODELL says that the Legis-
lature has no Constitutional right TO
grant a franchise for the Pennsylvania
tunnel, and that no remedy can bc sought
ut Albany in the event that the Board OF
Aldermen fails of its duty.
WHY this haste on the part of tho
Chief Executive of the State to settle
this momentous question and deprive
the Legislature Of any opportunity 10
express its opinion thereon? OF what
other interests than those Of the Consti-
tuition il tho Governor the jealous
guardian?
Perhaps il will occur TO tn, Legts-
lature to determine for itscli wherein
It's Constitutional powers are comprised
il may not relish the Governors siren
nous attempt 10 head il Off. In our
opinion. should the franchise be refused
by the Aldermen recourse will certainly
he had TO the Legislature. And in that
event the Legislature may refuse to eX-
tend remedy: bur il Will not do so be-
cause there is no Constitutional way to
do so. And that this is true is as well
known to Governor ODELL a. it is 10 our
selves.
Probably there will be no occasion 10
go to Albany, after all, and the Board
of Aldermen may come down gracefully
if for no better reason than that the
grocery business is attended nowadays
with intolerabe publicity.

CHEAPNEss OF LARGE WARSHIPS.
Interesting Compa risons by Rear Admiral

bOWics' shN Wv" o"sseS'
An extremely interesting comparison OF
the size, cost and power OF our new battle
shits is made by Rear Admiral Bowles.
chief constructor OF the navy, In q paper
read before the Society Of Naval Architects
and Marine Engineers at their recent meet
ing in this city, which indicates very clearly
that there Is economy In building large
war vessels rather than small ones. just
as there IL In the mercantile marine.
Admiral Bewles compares first the Ala
bama and Maine classes with the Connecti-
cut class. the vessels Of which Will be buiit
at the New York Navy Yard and at New
port News. The cost Of each ship OF the
Maine and Alabama class WAS about S.-
OOO 900; that Of the ships in the Connecticut
class will he about 81. 500. 900. an increase
Of rs Der cent. But while the cost has NJ
creased rs per cent. the displacement has
risen from II 600 tons for the Maine GLASS
to 10 900 tons for the new class. ar increase
Of 50 per cent.
terry and ammunition Is I O03 tons. while In
the Connecticut class II will be l.sAO tons,
the increase being about the same as ths1
OF the tonnage Excluding from consider
alton all the guns below o-pounders, the
weight Of one discharge from the guns OF
the Maine class il 5,3l2 pounds, while that
from similar guns Of the new class IL $50
pounds. an incre ase Of 479 per cent. FUR
thermore, the weight OF armor on the YES
sells OF the Maine class l. 2,770 tons. and on
those Of the Connecticut class 1922 tons.
an increase OF ~ per cent. Thus, AT an
increase in cost Of one-quarter, our new
bait le- hips will lie one-third larger, carry
one-third heavier batteries behind two.
fths better ar nor. and be nearly one.hAi'
better ofensivelv,
Extending the comparison to the keer-
sarge and the Kentucky, Admiral bowles
figures that the new ships show an increase
OF IL per cent. in the weight OF armament
and ammunition. Of "a per cent in protec.
ton and Of 20 per cent. i'll the weight OF
shot thrown in one discharge from all guns
of 8-pound size and upward. The increase
in cost IL, as in the other case, about Is
per cent.
Model basin trials OF the Connecticut
| class, the chief constructor says, show
that the new ships. in order TO obtain
speed Of 10 knots, will require about per
cent less power than the vessels OF the
Maine class, and that for 10 knots speed,
about so per cent, less.
Taking up the cruisers OF the Pennsyl-
vania class and those Of the new Tennessee
| class, Admiral Bowles shows that the latter
will carry 2s.7 per cent greater weight IN
| guns and ammunition, and throw weight
of metal at one discharge greater by ~
per cent. than that thrown by the older
vessels The increase in the weight OF
protection il 80 per cent. in the tennessee
class over that Of the Pennsylvania class
| At the same time, the new ships Will have
| the same speed as the older vessels, on
| machinery Of the same weight and power
| though they will be 9 per cent larger.
