Simla, Aug. 2.-Fertile Bengal is
unaccustomed to famine and is pre-
pared to take the ensuing distress
very seriously.
Bengal reports are received of the
following cases of death and violence
due to the distress: AT Backergunj
two men died of starvation, while a
wife and a daughter were severely
wounded by a despairing husband who
attempted to kill them because he
could not bear to see their sufferings
from hunger. Two huts were looted
by peasants who wanted rice"

Quoted by the Rt. Rev. Henry Gabriels,
bishop of Ogdensburg, N. Y, and John

Gibbons.
Bishop Gabriels read an address in
which he said Catholicism was max.
ing rapid strides in the United States.
Bishop Gabrlels quoted President
Roosevelt as saying to him on learn.
ing that the bishop was to conduct
pilgrimage to Rome:
"Tell the people that sent him my
profound regards. l have tried to treat
Protestants and Catholics alike, as my
latest appointments show. l will try
to perpetuate this policy. This repub-
lie will stand for many a century, l
expect that there will be Catholic
presidents as well as Protestant l
trust that they all will treat each 9TH
err as | have tried to do
The pope thanked the bishop most
cordially, expressing his great love
for the United States and his very
highest esteem of President Roose

leaders of the pilgrimages with med
ais, and consented to be photograph
ed in the group of pilgrims.

Hamburg. Germany, has decided not

right by the local officials of the com
pany:
"The Transatlantic Fire Insurance
company denies liability on the ground
that the losses arose from an over
whelming catastrophe, due to a vis
tation of Providence, for indemnity
against the consequences OF which the
policy never was intended to provide
and does not provide. Moreover, the
attitude of the reinsuring companies
at home compels the Transatlantic
to assume this position

AN INSrRrcrLKH EXAMPLE.

A bulletin just issued by the Indiana State
Board of Health presents facts which ought 10
stir to belated action similar boards in other
states Having quietly purchased and analyzed
$50 samples of drugs and foods sold in Indiana.
the board reports that 500 of them were found
pure and of standard quality, while the remain
ing $50 were found to be adulterated or below
the legal standard in quality-a percentage of
43 per cent. About seventy five samples Of
drugs were analyzed, and Of these forty-six
were found pure and of standard quality, while
twenty-nine were adulterated. There is no rea-
son to suppose that drug and food adulteration
is more prevalent in Indiana than in other
states.
The Indiana investigation is timely, coming
just as the commission appointed to formulate
rules for the enforcement of the Pure Food law
is in session in Washington. The commission
will hold public hearings, beginning in this city
on September IL, at which all persons who are
interested in the matter may appear. Indiana
has done we'll to make an independent inves-
tigation in advance and every state might ad-
vantageOusly follow her lead. With the reports
of state boards of health before it, the COM
mission would be in a favorable position to
perform its task.

MUNICIPAL TELEPHONY.

The city of Glasgow whose enthusiastic de-
vOtiOn to the principle OF municipal ownership
of public utilities has attracted worldwide at
tentiOn has had little too much Of what it once
| considered a good thing Among its expert
Tnents was an investment three or four years
ago in a telephone plant, which was to rescne
the citizens from the clutches of a grasping
mOnOpOly-a private corporation which was do
ing business at the great seaport on the Clyde.
But nearly twice as large sum as was Orgi-
nally estimated was required for the municipal
equipment, which is already too old fashioned
to give perfectly satisfactory service. A new
switchboard, costing about $5OOO00, is much
needed and to procure it the city would be
obliged to borrow money. Besides, there is no
assurance of an increase in revenue, even should
this additional expenditure be made. The best
way out of the dilemma seemed to be TO sell
the property, and that is the course which was
finally adopted.
Everything considered, the municipality seems
to have got out Of it's scrape in a fortunate
manner. Usually when competition is unsuc-
cessful there is only one possible buyer in the
field, and a sale must be effected at a large
pecuniary sacrifice. There were two offers
for the Glasgow plant. One came from the
corporation which the city authorities had been
fighting, the National company, and the other
from the POstOffice Department, which in Eng
land conducts the telegraph service in addi-
tiOn TO carrying the mails, and which in some
places operates a telephone system also. For
reasons which may be imagined, the city ac-
cepted the governments bid though it was
100000 lower than that of the old company,
which is said to have covered the full "book''
valuation Of the property. Had the Postofice
Department made no proposition whatsoever,
the old company would have had the city en-
tirely at it's mercy.
While the taxpayers of Glasgow are to be
congratulated ON their escape from a worse
fate, it is yet uncertain what is in store for
users of telephones there. A continuation of
the recent rivalry is, of course to be expected
but the government will probably find it neces-
sary TO spend more money before it can derive
much benefit from its purchase, and if the
present rates are not large enough to preclude
a deficit they may soon be raised.

THE R1cHnoyD-OUEENs PROBLEM

The protest filed with the Secretary OF State
On behalf of citizen of Queens County against
the Senate appOriiOnment. so far as it couples
Queens ana Richmond, raises interesting
problem in constitutional law. Nobody has ever
attempted 10 maintain the abstract justice Of
putting Richmond and Queens together, but the
Legislature has been confronted with difficult
practical question. and has had TO give such a
rough and ready answer as the constitutional
provisions. of undisputed general utility, made
possible in dealing with this exceptional case.
The trouble all arises from the fact that Rich
mOnd is a small county not half big enough to
have Senator itself, and is on an island not
actually contiguous to any other county with
which il can be coupled. Kings and New York
counties are separated from it only by the
waters OF New York Bay, but the constitution
absolutely forbids the association with either
of them which it once had, for no county may
now be divided except to form districts wholly
within lis own borders. Since 1894 it has been
associated with Suffolk. though they are not
within thirty-tiye miles of each other. This
apportonment however. was made by the
constitution itself and hence the constitutions
Limitation upon the Legislature did not apply
Queens has, in round numbers, 10000 citizen
population, which is 10000 more than enough
for Senator Of its own the ratio being 10000.
1t is. however, the nearest county TO Richmond
SO. it is not divided, it is available for juno
ton with Richmond.
The critics of the app0rtionment say that
Richmond should have been thrown with Rock
land. That division would have made districts
more nearly equal in population. in that respect
carrying out more perfectly the spirit of the
constitution. but in every other respect it would
have done much more violence 10 the constifu-
Lon than the present arrangement does. Rock
land is thirty miles distant from Staten Isl
and, while Queens, though not strictly cOntgU-
Gus fronts Oh the waters Of New York HarbOr
lust as Richmond does, and ROckaway, in
Queens. is Just across the outer bay from Staten
Island ROckland and Richmond have absO-
iuteIy nothing i'm common. One is a rather
inaccessible farming county The other is
part of the city Of New York. Its people and
those OF Queens have many common interests.
The two counties compose the outlying bOr-
Oughs whose claims before the Legislature are
likely 10 be in entire harmony. In spite OF nu'
merical Misrepresentation they could get on
perfectly well with a common Senator. Ad-
verse claims 10 his allegiance would not be
likely ~ arise. willie a representative of sub
urban Richmond and rival ROckland would be
torn by rival interests.
