THE NEW FOUNDRY.
The Biggest Days Run Was Yes
terday, When Five Tons We're
Cast-Some New Orders,


Yesterday was an important day at
th" cty's new industry, the Carbon-
dale Metal Working company. The
biggest heat or cast was run off. In
ALL over five tons of iron were made
into a variety of iron products, parts
of machines, hot gas pixies and mis-
Cellaneous gas fixtures. The COM
pany is going to make a speciality of
gas fixtures, such as irons, radiators
heaters, etc, having control of several
patents. The biggest single piece cast
since the foundry started was also
turned out yesterday.
Fly way of illustrating how varied
the products are that are sent out
from the foundry. it might be men,
toned that the smallest article cast
yesterday, one of the parts of a ma
chine, weighed less than an ounce,
while the heaviest was Il single piece
of over two tons 1t was a machine
for making lead pencil sharpeners, and
was made to fill an ORDER for a New
York concern. \ highly successful
cast was made of hot plates for gas
stoves. ond which experiments We're
made until the satisfactory result of
yesterday was happily achieved.
Yesterday an order was received for
parts OF typeWriters. 1t came from an
Eastern manufacturer and covers all
the cast-iron work that might be on
the machine.
Under General Manager Johnson, the
foundry is making good progress and
is gradually Increasing in force. Be
fore long it will be the factor in the
industrial world hereabouts that the
promoters aimed ut when the company
was organized.

Senator McMiIIan's New Assignment.

The selection of Senator Mcmillan, chair
man of the District committee, as MEM
Der of the appropriations committee to sue
eeed Gen. Sewell is most gratifying to the
people of the District, who feel that this
combination of positions will increase the
Michigan senator's opportunities for help
ing the capital in its development. Mr.. Nc
MILAN is eminently equipped for his new
post on the appropriations committee,
through his own business experience, his
long service in the Senate and his intimate
knowledge Of District affairs and the busi
ness of the government in general. In his
capacity as chairman of the District COM
mittee he will be in a position to advise
the appropriations committee-presumably
serving on the subcommittee in charge of
the bill itself-when the time comes to re-
shape the local budget in the Senate. In
the final conferences his services in such
a capacity are certain to be of great bene-
At in the proper solution of the vexed
questions which annually arise in the final
stages of the bills passage.
In very few instances have senators been
appointed on both the District and appro-
priations committees. Mr.. Faulkner of
West Virginia served on both commit
tees during the Fffty-fifth Congress and
his dual connection In many instances
served the Districts interests well. Prior
to that time there had been no similar COM
bination since the Forty-sixth Congress,
when. in 1s79-S1, Senator Withers of Vir-
ginia held a position on both. In the Forty
fourth Congress Senator Dorsey of Arkansas
was assigned to both committees, and In
the FOrty-ffth Congress he was made
chairman of the District committee while
retaining his membership on appropria-
tons
1t would be eminently appropriate IL the
House were to adopt some such course to-
ward the District appropriations is sug-
gested by this latest selection in the Sem
ate. BY arranging so that the chairman of
the subcommittee on District of the appro-
priations commit tee is also a member of the
District committee a bond between those
two bodies would be established certain to
produce excellent results Such a connec-
ton would be OF especial value in this i'm
mediate situation, with the Districts
finances in such shape as possibly to need
tn. attention of both committees.

New York. New Police Leaders.

Despite the many reports Of sensational

aside and he departed In tears He had
already sued in court for reinstatement as
chief Of the force, and his status is there
fore somewhat uncertain. although it is
accepted as assured that he will not under
this regime be given any power whatever
to bend the police force to the ends or
corruption.
The new commissioner addressed his can
tains and inspectors yesterday upon taking
charge and gave them to understand that
the main purpose of this new administra-
tion Is efficiency and honesty. He directed
them to go first to work to clean up their
precincts and to close all Illegal resorts of
whatever nature. He pointed out to them
that police captain whose precinct is

invaded with practical results by the detec-
tives of private organization of citizens
working for reform, was thereby accused
by the facts of ineff1ciency. In short, the
new police head clearly put the responsible
subordinates upon their performances to
determine whether they retain or lose their
rank.
1t Is not to be expected that the whole
great city will be cleansed In twinkiing.
It is too big; vice and crime are too insid-
ious. crafty and persistent and the force
itself has too bad repute with the law
breakers for the permanent good effects OF
the change to be at once apparent. The
vicious classes may lay low for time, to
see whether the reform movement is gen.
uine or only half-hearted. They may then
be relied upon to renew their peculiar prac-
tices of working. the police through the
pocket for protection. There may be an
occasional case Of corruption In the force.
But 1t Is not to be believed that the graft
will continue as before. When this fact is
appreciated by the gamblers. sharpers and
degenerates New York will be materially

The Local Legislative Program.

When Congress reconvenes next Monday
1t will be in position to legisate systemati-
cally and wisely in behalf of the District
Of Columbia The adjustment of the fiscal
relations between the District and the fed
eral government should not involve much
delay if the real lesson of the whole record
is appreciated by the house committees
The choice lies simply between the manner
in which the funds, over and above the
tax revenues in prospect, necessary to
carry on the local government and to pro-
vide for the essential large improvements
shall be raised There should be no hesi-
tstion in adopting the principle that the
Districts budget this year should be as
large as though the local treasury were
well filed.
While the House is studying this question
in order to choose between a bond issue
and a federal advance to the District, the
Senate will presumably be receiving and
considering the grand park improvement
plan, along with the new bill for the read
justment OF the railroad terminals to ac-
commodate President Cassatt's project for
a union station. The chief point In view
in connection with the park plans is for
the entire scheme, after due discussion and

A New Day I'm Virginia

Two Young men were inducted into highly
responsible places at Richmond yesterday,
and the people OF Virginia will expect gooo
service at their hands. Mr.. Montague, VINO
became governor. is in the early forties, Is a
lawyer and an orator, has filled the once OF
attorney general of the state, and Is per-
sonally very popular. He won his Two
races-the first for the nomination for gov
ernor. and the second for the office itself
hands down. Captain Willard, who be-
came lieutenant governor, Is even younger
is a capitalist and business man. KNOWS men
and values and has a wide acquaintance
throughout the commonwealth. Born 10
large fortune, he has preferred a lie OF
useful activity TO one of ease, and MS sue
cess in the line of his ambition Is well
merited. He is likely to play a consplcu-
Gus part in the political affairs of Virginia
for some years TO come.
This new and young blood should find
good scope for the exercise of its best pow
ers in the present situation in the Old Do
rninion. The old order is changing. The
old leaders are passing away, or else are IN
retirement, and a new state constitution
is now on the stocks kork on it pro-
ceeds slowly, but this may in part be ex-
planned by the fact that those engaged in
IL are gong 10 tne very 1ouiiudlioh VI
things We may expect therefore when the
instrument is completed something very diff
ferent in many particulars from the instru-
ment under which the state is now operat-
ing 1t is to be hoped, too. that it will
show a full appreciation on the part of its
trainers of the difference between that elder
day and this, and all that this day calls
for in a chart for government for people
who want to prosper, but who cannot hope
to prosper except upon lines of liberal
recognition of up-to-date conditions and re-
Quirements.
1t is to be said with regret that Virginia
has not kept pace with the more progress
sive of her sister states. She has not i'm
proved her opportunities. She has not de-
veloped her resources The last census was
disappointing to herself and her friends
Her cities and towns showed little growth
Several reasons are offered for this, but
we need not dwell upon any of them. 1t is
sufficient to note that, with new men of
youth and vigor on deck, and a reorganiza-
tion of the states governmental machinery,
the time seems ripe for an awakening and
for progress. Everybody will wish to see
the opportunity seized, and progress made
