The French Socialist Menace.

New York Tribune: ffF%2f
Among the financial disturbances
from which the nations are suffering
there is not one more significant than
that in France. 1t is a time of profound
peace and of unimpaired prosperity. Not
for years have the foreign relations of
the republic been so suspicious, or has
the republic itself seemed so secure from
the intrigues of Royalist and Imperial
list pretenders. The national finances,
too, are in q sound condition, or as
sound as they have been for long time.
Yet the prices of rents have been declin-
ing as though war bugies were sound
ing or new Panama catastrophe was
imminent. The recent decline in Brit
ish consois was easily applicable on the
grounds of the South African war, the
Transvaal loan and the Irish land bill.
But why should rentes fall? There are
two reasons. a major and a minor. The
minor one is that a political campaign
has been organized to that end. The
major cause, which threatens to be more
enduring and mischievous. is the fear
of socialism and socialist spoliation.
For years the Socialist party in France
has been growing. The last ministry
and the present have depended upon a
coalition with it for the maintenance of
a parliamentary majority.

Rronzes in Parks.

A fine bronze is especially valuable in
a park where the dark green and
browns of the metal blend splendidly
with the softer russets and greens of
the foliage. Nothing could be finer in
this way than the groups of horses by
Macnonnies at the southern entrance of
Prospect park in Brooklyn. If one would
experience a most unique and powerful
artistic sensation he should happen upon
them on a winter day just at sunset.
The rugged silhouettes of these splendid
groups against the sky, or their broken
masses blending with the naked trunks
and branches of the trees of the park,
are a fine revelation of the picturesque
possibilities of sculpture. The great
group by Rodin of the Bourgeois de
Calais is grandly modelled for bronze
