FIFTY LIVES IN PERIL.
Fire in New York Subway in the

were called out in large force because
Of the location of the fire. Telephone
and telegraph service were crippled as
result.
A LAMP DID IT.
The fire was started by the flaring

the laborers In their underground
work, the burlap that covered some
pipes along the sides Of the subway
catching fire, the blaze spreading
to the temporary timbering of the
tunnel.
FIFTY LIVES IN PERIL.

the street at the corner Of Dey street,
1t had been found necessary to open
the street and build massive wooden
platform in place Of the usual paving.
a few minutes hard work with the
axes made an opening here and the
laborers were helped out to safety.
Through the regular opening into the
subway beside st. Paul's chapel and
through openings made from the cell

on the smouldering fire, and within
half an hour the blaze was extlnguish-

and the pIeoge that no schemes for
reciprocity in trade with foreign ma
tons shall be permitted TO injure any
industry in the United States" 1t is
well to have this, the highest authority,
tell Us what the Republican platform
does mean on the tariff question. Those
Republicans who are anxious for rec
iprocity with Canada and other coun-
tries Will know their demands are not
TO receive the slightest consideration.
The Economist also shows its utter
adherence of the Cuban reciprocity
treaty which President Roosevelt
forced through congress, for it adds:
The fact will not be lost sight of
that had the principles enunciated in
the platform governed the Republican
national administration during the past
two years there would have been no
such thing as reciprocal trade agree
ments with any foreign nation, no mat
ter how great the incentive or how
charitable the spirit which prompted
such negotiation, when the fact was
clearly dcmonstrable that more than
one industry in the United States was
certain to be injuriously affected
thereby"
That is certainly fair slap in the
face for President Roosevelt, who the
Economist evidently thinks was not
governed 10y true protection principles,
for it Is clearly demOnstrablc that
more than one industry in the United
States was certain TO be injuriOusly
affected thereby" The injured indus
tries are sugar and tobacco, both of
which are controlled by trusts, and the
lament Of this Republican organ shows
clearly the connection between the
trusts and that party and the absolute
domination of the trust barOns over
the late Republican convention.
The mOnopOlists have 50 tied up the
Republican party in its platform that
for at least the next four years, if that
party is successful. there will be no
tinkering with the sacred tariff law.
A Republican candidate for congress
may promise to favor reciprocity, or to
revise the tariff 81 that ii will not
foster trusts, but if elected he will be
pOwerless to do anything for tariff
reform without breaking with his
party 1t will be well for Republicans
who have hitherto voted the Republic
an ticket, but now think reciprocity or
4 revision of those tariff schedules that
protect the trusts in selling abroad
cheaper than here should he adopted,
to question their candidates for con
gress on how far they Will be willing
to go for reciprocity or reform.

EUROPEAN TRIPS.
Some Points for the Traveller Who
Would be Economical.


Would be Economical.
The apparent cheapness of cab fares
in Europe will at first lead one into I'M
necessary extravaganza, which can
easily be avoided. In every large city
and many smaller ones little hand
books of the tramway lines can be had
and the cars are 50 plainly marked that
the intelligent traveller soon learns to
use them. You do not really know Il
city or its people until you have studied
both at close range in the street cars;
you are too far away from them in a
cab.
Museums, galleries and palaces are
always open one day at least in each
week free OF charge. To arrange for
a visit on this day will save quite a
tidy little sum in entrance fees when
the expenses are counted up at last.
To sum up, 81 a day is a liberal al
lowance for living expenses, for they
will not rise To this sum in cities where
n long Sojourn is made. and so the
greater cost OF short stands will be
equaliZed 10 this one average. Almost
all European countries offer special cut
railroad rates for a number of tours
during the summer months. InfOrma-
ton as TO this is obtainable in the bu-
reau of information in every city rail
way station, where officials speaking
English can always be found. These
round trip tickets cover about every
thing to be seen in the country in ques-
tion, and international routes can also
be covered by their help at n cost less
than that offered by the tourist agen-
cies. Steamer travel is cheaper than
rail. but the great time demanded
makes the question Of meals n serious
one as there is no helping yourself out
with a sandwich bought at station.
To be able to avail oneself of all
these possibilities for saving money
and really getting the most out of ones
trip good guidebook is absolutely
necessary
