MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.
English People, Who Have Given it
a Trial are Doubtful Of It's Bene-

Municipal ownership has been ex-
~tensyely tried in Great Britain with
out altogether satisfactory results In
a recent article on the subject the
New York Sun says:
SIN pursuance OF an order OF the
House Of Commons q government re-
turn has been published Of the muni-
cipal corporations In England and
Wales iexclusive Of Londonl. which,
on March 81, 1902. were carrying on
Reproductive undertakings. Although
much that one would have liked TO see
included in the report IS omitted. a
good deal Of light Is thrown on the
question whether 1t is expedlent for
municipalities to perform work which
hitherto has usgaily been done by pri-
yate corporations or individuals
at se.ms that the number Of NUM-
lcipal corporations In England and
Wales which were carrying on repro-
ductiye undertakings at thedate men
toned was 80; the population Of the
boroughs concerned was something
over 100000 souls, The total capt.
tai invested Ia the various enterprises
named exceeded sos, OO0, 600 Of which
s5s5,0o0oo0 was borrowed money. or
the latter sum more than a seventh
has been paid on, so that the existing
liability amounts 10 about sos, o0,oo9.
OF the undertakings tabulated, water
works cost the most, the sum debited
to them being nearly s2s5, 200, 600; next
come gas works, upon which slaO,0Oo.-
600 has been expended; the expendi-
ture on electricity supply was, in
round numbers, s62, 10000. and on
tramways s4s, 10000. OF the last
named total IS, 700, 900 is due on lines
owned BY municipal corporations, but
not worked By them. Markets account
for almost s31, OOO,0 900 Of the grand To-
tai; harbors piers, docks and quays
for more than s27,000,OO0, burial
grounds for nearly sl2,OO0,Oo0; baths
and washhouses for about 100000;
working class dwellings for s6s250,0Oo,
and other reproductive undertakings
for s5,5O0.Oo0.
SMALL RETURNS.
eThe average annual income for the
800 municipal undertakings amounted
in the aggregate to rather more than
s65, 00O, 200, from which, however, must
be deducted 81, 100000 for working
and other expenses. The balance il
about s24, OO9,O 900 from which again
must be deducted nearly sl5,o0O,0oO
for interest on money loaned and near
ly 100000 for depreciation. If a fur
ther sum Of q, 800, 600 be subtracted fol
repayment Of principal We have a net
profit Of considerably less than 5000,
900. From the viewpoint OF private
capitalists that would be a very pool
return on the money invested, but
this, according TO the advocates d
municipal interposition In business, h
not the point Of view from which pub
lie enterprises should be considered
They pronounce that the fact that an
profit at all is derived from the NUM-
cipal undertakings Is a proof that thu
municipalities are providing services
required by the community, and the.
say further that the boroughs concern
ed could easily double or treble tn
profits If they chose to regard munich

Number Of Dead.

The number of dead is merely q
matter of estimate. Twenty members
of rescuing parties tell of how they
saw people drop from houses only to
be swept away by the food, and 9th
ers tell of men, who, terrified at the
approach of the fire, dropped into the
water, where they sank and did not
reappear. The estimated number OF
dead does not include the large num-
Der classed as missing who cannot
otherwise be accounted for. Neither
does 1t include the number who are
supposed to have lost their lives in the
fire. In the latter class there is abb
solutely no means of arriving at even
an approximate number of victims.

PILES OF DEAD IN THE PATH OF

Probably One Hundred Persons Killed
and Many Homes Destroyed--At
Least 200 People injured.

Just after the noon hour Monday
the city of Gainesville, Ga, was struck
by terrific cyclone, killing probably
one hundred persons. unroofing the
City hotel, other large buildings, and
destroying the Gainesville cotton
mills. The greatest loss of life Is re-
ported in the district of the cotton
mills, where about eighty people are
reported killed and scores injured.
Eighteen persons were killed in the
city between the center of the town
and the railroad station, where four
large stores were blown down. The
storm had driven away many persons
at work in the cotton mills when the
cyclone struck. The mill was three
story building. The first story was
left standing, but badly wrecked. The
second and third floors were complete.
ly demolished, the employees were
caught under the wreckage and
mangled. Il is estimated that there
were at least seventy.five bodies I'M

and 1t Is not known how many persons
on the second floor of the building
were killed. The store of Joseph Lo-

Millions Of Dollars Lost by Flood in
Kansas City.

The greatest flood in the history Of
Kansas City, Kan, and the bottoms OF

railroad tracks and the crowded
wholesale districts of the west bot.

The losses in the wholesale district
will aggregate well into the millions.
and the losses to the various packing

BRiTAIN's FUTURE POLICY.
Mr.. Chamberlain Makes Bold Speech
in Parliament.

in Parliament.
Mr. Chamberlain has again proved
himself the strong man of the cabinet.
In debate which may prove the most
momentous of the present parliament,
he has, in frank and bold speech,
further developed the policy which
will be universally regarded as an en-.
tire reversal of Great Britain's fiscal
position, and at the same time he
proved that he has managed to carry
the government with him against
their convictions.
The impression left on the minds of
the crowded chamber was that the
country is on the eve of a dissolution
and that as in 1900, Mr.. Chamberlain
carried the country with him on the
South African war policy, he has now
converted his colleagues to the belief
that he will be able to carry-it again
on the policy of preferential trade
within the empires
In addition to asking for mandate
to tax food, he asks for power to en-
gage in a tariff war with Germany on
Canada's account, and to fight the
American trusts. 1t Is safe to say that
no such sudden revolution has been
experienced in the political situation
for very many years, nor anything 80
sensational.
