FAMINE FOR SAILING SHIPS.

Although there has for many years
been talk of the dull times in the for
eign going merchant marine, there
never has been time when there were
so many American sailing ships unem-
ployed AS at present, or when 1t was so
hard for an American ship to get for
eign cargo at living rates, says the Bath
Times. The subsidized ships of France
are driving the American ships out of
the San Francisco grain trade, which is
one of the few trades in which of late
years the Yankee ship has been able to
make a living, and as consequence
other trades in which United States
vessels may still engage have become
oyercrowded, freights reduced, and it is
an impossibility for many ships to get
cargoes at any rates sufficient to pay
the expenses of operation. The con-
dition that exists in the matter of idle
ships will be seen at a glance by scan
ming the names of the following: In
this port the clipper ship Gov. Robe
has been laid up since last June: the
Henry b. Hyde is idle at San Fran
cisco: the Reuce is tied up at Eagle
Harbor, Wash; the S. ID Carleton at
Port Townsend, Wash. the Henry Fail
ing is idle at Port Gamble, WASH: the
VIM. II. Smith at Port Angeles; the Alb
ner Coburn. Alex. Gibson, Charmer, }.
B. Brown, Elwell Rufus E. Wood and
Sea King are tied up at San Francisco.
The banks Pactolus and st. James are
doing nothing at San Francisco and
Port Angeles respectively and the j.
B. Walker at New York. Following
are the names of some of the ships that
are in service at the present time, but
their charters will soon expire and
there is little outlook for a renewal:
Ships A. j. Fuller, James Drummond,
John Currier, Jos. 3. Thomas, Mary l..
Gushing, St. David and ST. Francis;
banks Carrollton, Fairchild, Jabez
Howes, Oregon and the Jas. Nesmith

owned by I. F. Chapman & Co., are en-
ployed as follows: |. F. Chapman, now

Deafness is Durable! Sufferers from
impaired hearing will be glad to know that
their atfiicton is probably not due to any
organic defect in the ear, but results prob
ably from thickening of the lining Of the
middle ear caused by catarrhal inflamma-
ton. Hundreds of perfect recoveries as
result of the inhalation of Catarrhozone are
reported, and on the highest authority we
recommend this treatment to our readers.
Catarrhozone quickly restores lost hearing,
and its efficiency is placed beyond dispute
by the case of Mr.. Warren of Toronto, who
recovered perfect hearing by using Catarah-
ozone, after years of deafness. Price 81.

In the business district now drawing

Less than five years ago the city en-
1oyed a revenue of over $4,000 from
the business section of the city be-
cause Of water furnished, but with the
advent of artesian wells this was re-
duced until now 1t is practically moth

ers of wells, finding that the supply of
water was greater than their needs,
sold the excess, and in consequence a
formidable competition was created
and still exists.
Even this might .have been permit

finds that it is furnishing these same

the city a cent of revenue. The install

means reduction of so per cent in

not realize anything from the saving
affected.
For the past two years the depart
ment has been relying mostly on the
small consumer for its revenue, and as
it's receipts, over expenses, constitute
the basis on which the water rentals
are made, the members of the water
board have about come to the concIu-
sion that the business section should
pay its share. This share. while II
could be assessed only on the basis of
protection received, would materially
help In taking some Of the burden off
the small consumers.
The board discussed the situation
thoroughly yesterday and, named a
committee consisting Of Commissioners

COMPANY SHOULD
SHARE EXPENSE
Ordinance Requires Street
Railway to Clean Its Por-
ton of Streets.

BY the general ordinance under
which the st. Paul City Railway COM
pany operates it is specifically pro-
Vlded that the company shall keep
cream all that part of the streets be-
tween its tracks and for two feet out
size, and this fact has prompted some
asSemDfymen to inquire whether the
street car company cannot be made to
pay for some of the street cleaning
now being done.
As far as the records show, no de-
mand has ever been made on the com
pany to comply with this part of its
ordinance, beyond removing snow
when its depth constituted a hindrance
to traffic. The space over which the
company has jurisdiction is nineteen
rect and this the city has been clean
Ing and sprinkling for years without a
cent of cost to the company As the
conditions now exist ridges of snow
ana NTH occupy the space between the
tracks, and If the prevailing custom
is carried out this will all be removed
and taken away at the city's expense
despite the fact that the ordinance saws
that the company shall do it,
AS Tar back as my memory runs,
the city has always included this por-
ton of the street when it did it's usual

lett yesterday. 1.-The street car COM

the company to remove the snow when
1T becomes hindrance, but 1 never
heard of any effort to compel it to
clean its portion otherwise
Assistant Corporation Attorney Nc
Dermott says that the company, under
the ordinance, can be made to keep the
section of the street it occupies clean.
NO effort as far as he knows has ever
been made to enforce this provision
of the ordinance, beyond the removal
Of the snow, but he is confident it could
be DONE"
To cleanse the streets of mud and
filth this spring will cost not far from
$4,000, and some of the members of
the council think that the company
should aid in the work. On the grades
fully a carload of sand is dumped by
the company every day and this goes
far to add to the general accumula-
ton of filth. If the company kept
Its section of the street clean, as the
ordinance requires, the city's portion of
the work would be materially reduced.

Charges Against Him We're

1t was said yesterday by one of
the state officials that at a meet

to be held today, a report would be
submitted generating Engineer Ralph.
Mr.. Ralph has been resting under
charges made against him by the state
public examiner some two months ago.
That official made trip to Crookston
and laid certain facts before the grand
jury of that county which resulted in
several indictments being returned
against Ralph, charging him with du-
plicating pay rolls for county ditch
work.
The indictments having been dis
missed on motion of the attorney rep
resenting the state, other charges We're
laid before the state drainage commits

engineer.

and after a spirited debate, in which much
excellent oratory was displayed the de-
-elslon wasZtn favor Of the Minneapolis
debaters
The Minneapolis men were c. E.
Bidell G. R. Howard and D. R. Thomas;
and the st. Paul men were J. M Ander-

Judges were G. F: Longsdorf, of St Paul;
9. Youngren, of Minneapolis and F. w
Peck, state secretary of the Y NJ c. A.
In awarding the decision the presiding
judge said that the st. Paul men had the
advantage In delivery, but that they had
failed to prove that the government
should own and operate the railroads
Many good arguments were advanced on
ooth sides. and the presentation showed
study and skill.
In addition to the debate there was a
programme. including music by the Y

Blackman, of ST. Paul, on "WomsN's
Rights" and a recitation by T. l.. Curry,

character that the report generating
Ralph is the result of the investiga-

The drainage commission was to
have acted on the report yesterday aft

very little business ahead of them. 1t
spoke well for the community, the
court thought
There are but five or six cases to be
investigated, and 1t is thought the work
can be finished by the end of the week
It was stated yesterday that only the
cases called to the attention of the
grand jury by the county attorney
would be considered, and it is be-
lieved that no investigation will be
made of the blind pig" cases, of
which there has been some talk.
The grand jury begun its work at
once, a number of witnesses being
summoned to testify yesterday after
noon.
