Kindness to Birds.

One day my brother and made bird house
out of a cigar box and fastened It upon the
barn.
In short time two bluebirds built nest In
IT,. One windy day the cover, which had been
fastened down., blew open. Then the bluebirds
were all In futter When my brother climbed
upon the barn TO fasten 1t down the mother
and father birds were frightened, for they
thought he was going to rob their nest, but
when he fastened 1t again and climbed down
and / had thrown them some crumbs they set
tied down as contented as ever.
The next summer the same bluebirds built
their nest there. Jessie Dawson,

TIE TUMULT OF VESUVIUS.

The misfortune which has oyertaken Italy
within the last few days differs radically from
that which befel the island of Martinique four
years ago but is formidable enough to appeal
powerfully to human sympathy. Up to the
present time there has been a comparatively
small loss of life in the vicinity of Nesuvius.
By a tornado blast of burning gas from Pelee
more than seventeen thousand people in st.
Pierre alone were killed with appalling sud
denness. While however. ample warming of
the impending danger was fortunately given
TO the residents of a dozen villages around the
Bay of Naples. the number who were compelled
10 seek safety in flight lamentably large.
1t may possibly exceed one hundred ana fifty
thousand. Many of the fugitives perhaps will
recover their abandoned bones, but many will
not. In the mean time all of them, whatever
the future has in store. have suffered ineXpres-
sby from fright and the vast Inconvenience
of hasty exile Altogether, it is clear that
veritable tragedy is in progress.
Streams of lava appear to have issued from
nearly all sides of the volcano. The heaviest
flow was apparently 10 the southward. 1t
actually overwhelmed Bosoo Trevase and
threatened several other communities still
further away. For day or two it looked as if
Pompei might be buried once more, this time
with molten rock, not ashes. Other rivers of
lava menaced villages to the eastward and
nOrthward and one on the northwestern slope
+ of VeSuvius seems to have destroyed the
meteorological observatory, one Of the railways
which took tourists nearly to the summit and
the tiny hamlet of San Giuseppe. Naples. ten
miles west of the volcano, was too far away to
be harmed in this manner but it experienced
earthquake shocks which did little damage and
caught a shower of ashes, the extent of which
has probably been exaggerated. Luckily the
direction of the wind for the greater part of a
week has been such as to carry the lighter ma
terial elected from the crater TO the southwark
or eastward. The escape of Naples from serious
injury will occasion worldwide rejoicing.

CORRUPT PRACTICES LEGISLATION.


The Legislature will neglect an urgent duty If
.t fails 10 pass new corrupt practices law
at this session. New York cannot afford to loiter
.n the rear while other states are mending their
ways and purifying their politics. AS illustrat-
ing the scope Of the reforms which have been
undertaken elsewhere, The Tribune two weeks
ago briefly summarized the provisions OF the
Corrupt Practices act passed in February by
the Pennsylvania Legislature. That law and
the machinery now devised for carrying il into
effect deserve to be studied closely at Albany

and Mexico-were represented. Ii would GER
tainly add to the prestige and 10 the practicai
efficiency of The second conference to have pres
ent delegates from at least four or five If not
all of the South American states
The Pan-American Congress, moreover, is not
the only international gathering with which a
Iuly date at The Hague would interfere. The
Red Cross Conference, which will revise the
Geneva Convention, is to meet at Bern on June
IL and il is pointed out that there would not
be time for its business TO be transacted before
a meeting at The Hague in July. Obviously, IL
is desirable that the conference at The Hague
shall not meet until after these two others have
completed their work That is for two mayor
reasons One is that the same delegates IL de-
sired by their governments. may serve at botn
Rio Janeiro and The Hague, or at Bern ana
The Hague The other is that the agreements
Of these two other meetings may. so far as Is
appropriate. be reviewed and ratified by the
greater and more authoritative body. Much
of the work at Rio JaneirO will pertain TO
American states alone, but some matters are
to be considered there which will also be con-
sidered at The Hague. AS for the Bern meet
Ing practically all its doings will be such as
should receive the seal of sanction at the Peace
Congress.
There is, OF course, particular reason why
July should be chosen as the date of The Hague
congress- 1t does not even coincide with that
of 1899 for the conference of that year met
in May. In the absence of any compelling cause
for holding it in July, then. the obvious rea-
sons for not doing so will doubtless prove ef-
fective. Such is the more likely 10 be the case
since other powers than those of America are
understood to favor some later date. If only
the United States and it's neighbors of the West
ern Hemisphere desired some other date than
July it is TO be assumed the change would be
made. With Great Britain and Germany, and
probably some other European countries, ex-
pressing the same desire, there will doubtless
be no hesitation in laying aside the date orig
inally suggested for one which will be more
convenient TO all the powers and which there
fore will be auspicious of a larger measure of
success for the congress.

STRINGENT MONEY.

Wall Streets speculative community is much
disturbed over the prevailing stringency III Tue
local loan market, because tight money mas
nipped in the bud extensive plans for an actlVe
bull demonstration in the current month. IL ls'
indeed unfortunate for spectators who nave
stocks on their hands that they cannot so govern
the money supply in this country as at all times
to have quotations for loans in their favor. Ihe
fact that they are unable to control the money
market has created much pessimlsm among
them and they now express for publication
their belief that the bank presidents have en-
tered a far reaching conspiracy to deprive them
of their rights" i'll the matter OF borrowing.
They repeat the old charge that the clearing
House institutions are manipulating money
rates in order to enforce stock market nquldd-
tiOn and to place an insurmountable opstacle III
the way of higher quotations for securities Inc
fact is that the banks in the last year have
been altogether too generous with SPECTATORS.
Thirty per cent call money and an unusually
stiff time money market are not due to manlp-
ulation of rates by the banks. There is an abso-
lutte scarcity of funds at this centre available
for lending purposes, owing TO the active de-
mand for money in all parts of the country IN
connection with industrial expansion, to the in
creasing government receipts over expenditures
and to the large amount of money which is tied
up in speculative operations in the stock, cotton
ana cereal markets ana III real estate IdSI
Saturdays bank statement showed a deficit
in reserve above legal requirements of more
than S2,5O0,OO0, due to n large decrease in
cash and an expansion in loans, the latter
item reaching the tremendous total of S1,O32,-
7O94OO against a cash item of S24S,299, 700.
AS deposits are than four times as
large actual cash holdings, and as the per-
centage of reserve is below the legal limit, the
necessity for drastic contraction in loans may
readily be appreciated Some relief doubtless
will be given to the money market through the
avenue of gold imports, but according to the
belief of the best informed bankers the receipts
of the precious metal from abroad will not be
large enough to bring about easy market for
loans in the near future. At this season the de-
mand for money from interior points in connec-
ton with the spring trade and the planting sea-
son in the agricultural sections of the country
is heavy, and this year the requirements Of out
of-town cities larger than usual, owing to
the activity in all lines of business. If legitimate
business should suffer from the scarcity of funds,
the Secretary of the Treasury doubtless would
increase government deposits in national banks,
particularly as the Treasury is now in a strong
position; but it is not likely that he will con-
slider the appeals of spectators who merely
wish to increase their obligations in Wall Street.
More elasticity in currency system would
help the money situation in this country.

democracy Greece is often, and not unreason-
ably, called the most democratic country IN
Europe yet it has n king and shows no sign OF
wishing to get rid of him. Kossuth was the
leader of the Hungarian Democracy in seek
ing to establish republic but the Maysars are
among the most aristocratic of peoples. Eng
land remains loyal to her hereditary monarchy,
yet is in some respects actually more democratic
than America. So these Constitutional Dem
ocrats In Russia are not aiming at the lmIne-
diate establishment of republic, and they are
not likely to organize an attack upon the crown
or upon the monarchical principle. They are
striving fora constitutional system under whch
the people Sill have voice in the government,
and that is something which they now seem
reasonably sure of attaining by peaceful and
amicable means.
