thing forgotten but graft The pres ent administration may fairly be de- sAribed as compromise between the Low and Van Wick administrations.
 The water situation is peculiar The city has nearly half the voters of the state, but until new state census is taken and reapportionment made it has not nearly half the legislators. The city wants to extend its waterways. the legislature will block the scheme in every way it dares. not to anger the city people too much, because it doesn't want Tammany to have the vast pat ronage of $100,O00,000 water works. The rival proposition of the Albany leaders is to have a state water con- mission, which shall control all water supplies and parcel out the common sources to all the cities between Troy and New York. This is what has been done in Massachusetts under state au- thority for Boston and the nearby towns, as many as care to chip in.
 The state scheme is more advanced. It means supply from the Adiron- dacks, 170 miles away, supply pure and abundant for all time, but costly It would mean republican patronage, instead of Tammany patronage, too. But unless the state gets in its work quickly it will be too late. The time is fast coming when the cty-certainly with the assistance of Brfalo-will be stronger than the rest of the state combined.

That modest brown house is now Helen Gould sand every man in a mob would know it and pass 1t un- harmed. But no Standard Oil magnate in New York has even now a conspicu- ous mansion. This is perhaps tradi- tion from the time when John D. Rock efeller called his early associates about him, warned them that they were to be wealthy and cautioned them against display.

RESERVISTS MUTINY
Many Bolozoya and Kiev Con-
 scripts Killed by Guards.
KUROPATKIN PREPARING TO RETREAT
Vladtvostok Blockade So Effective That No Steamers Have Arrived For Two Weeks-British Ship
 Eastry Released.

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 15.-A dis. patch from Bolozoya says that 4,O00 Russian reservists have revolted. They have been surrounded in their camp, and an effort is being made to starve them into submission.
 Serious disturbances occurred at Kiev on the arrival of 12.O0O reservists. On leaving the trains they objected to being led off in patches by an escort sent to meet them. They mutinied. at tackled the troops and killed several of them.
 They occupied the railroad station and pillaged it. It was surrounded by battalion of troops sent to the rescue
 The troops fired two volleys, killing fifty of the reservsts. The mutineers eventually surrendered and were led off
 A Mukden report says that there is immense confusion in the city. The predominant feeling among the Rus sian civilians and military men is one of Encouragement. Everybody spoke of an early Japanese occupation of the place as foregone conclusion.
 The discouragement of the military officers is intensified by the fact that General Kuropatkin has his headquar- ters train seemingly ready to retreat northward at any time. Moreover, ex- tensive preparations are going on at Tieling to resist the enemy, implying retirement from Mukden.
 The Japanese have released the Brit ish steamer Eastry. which was seized off Hokkaido, they having learned that she was bound on an innocent voyage from a Japanese port for Singapore.
 The difficulties that are being eXperi- enced by vessels trying to reach Vladi- vostok indicate the practical effective ness of the blockade of that port that has been established by the Japanese No steamers have arrived there for two weeks. Two are long overdue. It is feared that they tried to pass through La Perouse strait and that they are icebound there or have been captured.

PEACE TREATIES IN SENATE.
Senator Lodge Will Not Make Reply
 to RO0scvelt's Letter.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15. = Senator Lodge presented to the senate in exec utive session list of all the general and particular arbitration treaties or arbitration articles in treaties contain ing other provisions that have been has compiled also statement showing the constitutional methods of making and ratifying treaties in certain foreign countries. The statement was ordered printed as public document.
 The disposition of each arbitration treaty is given by the statement. It shows that forty four were submitted, of which forty-three were ratified and one, the Olney Pauncefote treaty with Great Britain, was rejected. Of the treaties ratified thirty-seven were not and six were amended. Seven arbitra- tion agreements have been entered into without being submitted to the senate. They all provided for the settlement of private claims and were with Brazil. Colombia, Spain, Mexico Pius fund easel. Santo Domingo and two with Haiti. The Dominican is the Santo Do- mingo Improvement company case in- quired into by Senator Bacon's resolu- tion.
 The compilation of the laws covering ratification of arbitration agreements of all the countries with whom the United States has negotiated such trea- ties shows that in every instance the executive must secure the approval of at least one of the bodies. and in most instances both parliamentary bodies. except in the cases of Switzerland, where the parliamentary body is su- preme in treaty making, the executive having none of the power, and of Great Britain. where the king must secure the approval of the ministry, virtually a committee of parliament and anal ogous with the foreign relations com mittee of the senate of the United States.
 The announcement is made sy Sena- tor Lodge that he will not make any statement in answer to the letter of the president. which charged that the ratification of the arbitration treaties with the amendment adopted was & step backward and not a step forward. So far as I know no one is going to make statement on that subject" said the senator.

 A curious contest is going on about the Jumel house. The Colonial Danes and the Daughters of the Revolution both claim the honor of caring for 1t. Either organization would do the work well. but the park commissioner, in whose temporary care the old house is, hesitates to offend the powerful friends of either party by deciding against 1t. Mrs. Earle, former hostess of the place, wife of the well-known hotel keeper of New York and Richfleld, was a member of both organizations.
 The Jumel house is masterpiece of stately construction. No finer can be built now, though larger houses there are. From the front door 15-foot hall leads back to passage eight feet wide at the rear. and this eassage in turn leads to an oblong drawing room 20 feet by 30, with corners clipped to give it an octagonal shape. Three great rooms and serving pantry are ranged on either side of the hall in the main house The stair in recess at one side is generous, the ceiling IF feet in height.

we'll worth visiting.
 The state will have to buy the "An- dre prison.' if it is bought. It Is an old, lowroofed Dutch farm house upon the steep road leading up from the old ferry between Tarrytown and Tappan. Charles Pike now keeps a saloon and roadhouse there. and the historic fame of the place doubles Its value to him: however $l0,0O0 would buy it. It was a tavern when Andre was guarded there. kept by Casparus Mabie.
 In my brief time have seen the death of many revolutionary memo rials. One is commemorated in the name of the ten-story Washington building" which overlooks Bowling Green. Cyrus Field erected this great structure on the site of a tavern where Washington once stayed. Such was the value of the site that the city could hardly have been expected to buy it. In the tangle of narrow streets north- east of the city hall stood until recent ly the old sugar house. used as a prison by the British during the revolution. A l2-story building owned by the Have meyer estate now occupies the site For the Havemeyers have always been "in sugar" The Walton house on Frank lin square has also disappeared. The public are the more fa- miliar with its history because so many writers have looked curiously at 1t for year upon year from the windows of the Harper publishing house opposite.
