Plan for Fresh Air I'm the subway.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SCN-Sr: A light
partition running the entire length of the
subway. dividing the mort Inbound tracks from
tho southbound. would permit the moving
trains 10 accomplish the ventilation of the
tunnel. At present the trains merely churn
up the air without setting ny any permanent
current because the current caused by n
train moving in one direction is almost I'M
ncdlately stopped by train moving IN the
opposite direction.
If the orthbound tracks were separated
from the southbound, however the air in
one side OF the tunnel would be cons family
moving north and III the other side SOUTH
propelled by the trains. As train ap

ALL the institution by the new Equitable

The announcement of Mr.. MORTON s

to drag to light every administrative

favor every wrongdoer within the or

within the company was rendered lnevi-
table by the terms under which Mr..
CLEVELAND consented to act as trustee.

be revolutionary. Its prompt appica-

confidence.
And If it deserves the public conf

ter. THE Sun has always treated with
contempt the personal equation and the

When THE SIN first turned its atten-

itself in terms of the friendliest admoni-
ton to Mr. JACOB SCHlFF and asked If
he and has co-syndics could take hint.
1t was a we'll meant, if futile, effort, but
its futilty is regretted by none so deeply
as il is by the eminent gentleman to
whom it was addressed.
May We be permitted to observe TO the

Mr.. Patterson and the State COM

The Hon THOMAS MACDONALD PAT
TERsoN Of Colorado is preparing to start
on his Philippine inspection trip with
the prestige Of another defeat added to
his glories Senator PATTERsoNs expe-
riences with the Colorado Democracy
have been unhappy for some time. Mon
day another effort was made by him to
commit the State committee To some OF
his theories 1t ended in q complete
failure for him
1t is the settled conviction of Senator
PATTERSON that what ails the United
States is conservatism. Among radical
theories and policies he has no choice.
Each !s 40 good, in his Judgment, as
another. Any one Of them is better than
anything that is or has been. At present,
in company with several other noisy
thinkers, he is hot for Government owner
ship of public utilities, and to this policy
he hoped and expected to commit the
Colorado Democracy this week
1t was not the intention Of the State
committeeman to amend their party's
platform when they met. Senator PAT
TERsoN decided that they should, and to
convince them Of the necessity Of doing 80

Pile full of Government ownership, and
urged its adoption. The State commit
tee was asked to have the party go in for
municipal street railways run by the
cities in which they lie and for similar
enterprises
The State committees answer to this
proposition was the adoption of reso-
luton in which it declared that the time
had not come for municipal ownership,
that it was an issue for the local organ
izations anyway, and that it was no
part of the Democratic State commit
tees business to write national or State
platforms between conventions

The Naticans New Policy Toward
ltaly

According to & telegram which we pub
lished Tuesday Pope PITS y. has issued
an encyclical permitting and even adj
vising Catholic voters to take part in
future Parliamentary elections. No in
cident Of more Importance to the civil
power IN Italy, and perhaps TO the Church
Of Rome as we'll has occurred for up
ward Of thirty years. 1t rcverses the
policy innexibly maintained by PITS tx.
and LEO MIL ever since the Italian
monarchy took possession of the Eternal
City,
Although. after the discontinue Of
France in the tranco-German war was
seen to be irremcdlable, VICTOR EN-
MANrELs advisers determined to annex
the States of the Church. they strove
earnestly to reconcile the Papacy to
the loss of its temporal dominions.
They guaranteed the absolute indie
pendence of the Pope within the pre-
cincts of the Vatican, and they caused
the passage of an act appropriating
annually considerable more than three
millions of lire to the maintenance of
the Papal court. In return they natu-
rally hoped that the Pope would put no
obs acles in the way of the gradual ac-
ceptance Of the new political regime by
the Catholic population Of Italy. The
proposed compromise was rejected by
PITS TX. with Indignation Ho de-
scribed the alleged Independence con-
Ceded to him as captivity and the reve-
nue. offered as n bride derived from the
proceeds of robbery.
That was one of the two irrcconcilable
positions taken by Pits lX. He went
on to declare that the duty of rcpudiating
connivance at an act of spoliation was
as incumbent on the Catholic clergy and
laty as it was upon the Pontiff himself,
and therefore no loyal Catholic who
found himself inscribed on the registra-
ton list of the Italian Government ought
to recognize usurpers authority by the
exercise Of the franchise thus conferred.
That was the attitude Of stern aloofness
enioined by the famous cncycical Non
erpcdu," which forbade the Catholic
voters registered i'll the Kingdom of
Italy to be either elected or electors"
1t is well known that PIUS TX. died a
firm believer in this policy, and that
although many efforts were made to
induce his successor to depart from it,
LEO XIII. also adhered to il unswcrv-
ingly.
A number Of cons idcratons have COM
bined to cause the present Pope, Plus ",
to form different conception Of the re-
lation which the Catholic Church should
assume toward the Italian monarchy.
Events in France and events in Italy
have convinced him that Catholicism
has worse enemy in Socialism than in
the monarchical principle excmplified

The New School OF Musical Art.

Observers OF musical progress in this
country will be interested in watching
the results of FRANK DAMRosCH's labors
in building up new conservatory in this
city. Mr. DAMRosCH has lately returned
from Europe, whittier he went to engage
teachers He has not divulged his plans
in FULL but it is known that GEORGE
HENsCHEL and ETELKA GERsTER, the
latter a favorite colorature soprano Of
twenty-five years ago. have been secured
for the vocal department, and that dis
tinguished professor is to come from
Germany to head the piano school
The four members OF the Kneisel Quar-
tet will also be instructors and will take
up their residencein this city. Hitherto
it has been the custom OF students OF
music to go to Europe to place them
selves under the instruction OF world
famous teachers and to saturate them
selves in that artistic atmosphere which
is believed to exist only on the CONT
nent.
1t seems to be Mr.. DAMRosCH's purpose
to import number Of renowned instruc-
tors and thus obviate the necessity for
students to go abroad 1t has always
been, however, a pet theory with local
musicians that when the foreign celebrity
settled in America he quickly lost the
glamour through which he was viewed
from this side Of the ocean to the other,
1t remains to be seen whether American
aspirants for musical learning will hasten
to throw themselves at the feet Of the
imported teachers TO whose personalities
distance will no longer lend enchantment.
If Mr. DAMRosCH' s ex periment is success
full, music study will be made much less
expensive and more practicable.
