simplined Punctuation.

To TIE EDITOR or The SUN-lSE: In Live
Topics About Town" In THE SUN Of December 10
there was a story Of an alleged proofreader punctu-
a,ing pauses by mathematical gradations. !
say alleged proofreader" not because OF the
ahsurdtty OF his method so much as for these reasons:
First. no real proOfreadeT who has a knowledge
OF punctuation marks and their uses needs a formula
for that part OF his labor; as well might he use a
breath recorder or q blow meter, which would
tend equally TO increase the output OF his work:
secondly, a proofreader who Is wholly ignorant of
the art OF punctuation Is obviously not In need
OF such mathematics as an aid 10 his Ignorance;
thirdly, the only formula for punctuation In
dorsed by simon pure proofTeadersi Is that one which
demands so many commas TO the line-depending,
OF course. on the length OF the line-equally
spaced. Where the commas are unevenly spaced
Il Is due TO one OF two causes: either the writer has
used bad English or words Of unequal length. or
the compositor has neglected TO keep tab on his
comma buzzer.
AS a matter Of fact. punctuation is responsible
for the great growth Of reformed spelling. aud as
the adherents OF the latter continue TO increase
I expect TO see . corresponding diminution OF the
former. All the good writers-I mean the literary
chaps, not the Lottery ones-are profuse punctua
tors, dropping commas like chips on a roulette
table. But this Is a rapid age. and the wise ones,
realizing that the time lost In writing commas was
valuable, devised the shortened spelling as an
offset, thus e1emplifying In q small way what the
scientists term the law OF compensation or the
doctrine Of evolution. according to the intellectual
standing OF the user. Thus Is speed welded 10
elegance OF diction. For isn't II an elegant diction
that compels a reader 10 chant the phrases so neatly
measured OF with commas PRooFRooN.

Setback for Brush and Muggsey.

In rejecting HARRY c. PULLIAM as
president for another term the National
League Of Baseball Clubs has refused
to abandon the old fashioned game Of
baseball in favor Of the pastime ap-
proved and ~practised by the eminent
BRUSH and the active McGRAw. Mr..
PULLIAM rebuked MUGGsEY and JOHN
T. for excluding from the Polo Grounds
an umpire who was not their personal
friend, and they swore to be revenged
on him. Now, six Of the eight teams in
the League have Endorsed his action and
shown their determination to play the
old game.
The result will be to deprive the pub
Ito Of the riot spectacles which MCGRAw
and BRUSH were anxious to substitute
for the old fashioned competitions on
the green diamond. The deprivation
will be borne with composure by most
fans" The adhesion of the League to
the old standards is a cruel blow to the
owners and managers Of the Giants,
however. They hoped to eliminate base
ball playing from the League next year,
and believed that il they did 30 they
might stand a good chance of winning
the pennant again.

No Entanglement.

Both branches of the treaty making
power have contributed TO preserve the
freedom Of the United States Govern
ment in its relation to European politics
so far as the Algeciras treaty, or general
act, is concerned.
This general act was signed at Alge-
ciras by the representatives OF Germany,
Austria, Belgium, Spain, France, Great
Britain, Italy, Holland, Portugal, Rus
STA and Sweden without qualification or
reservation; and by the representatives
Of the United States with this very i'm
portant reservation:
The Government OF the United States. having
no political interest In Morocco, and no desire or
purpose having animated IL 20 take part In this
conference other than 70 secure for al peoples the
widest equality Of trade and privilege with Morocco
and to facilitate the institution OF reforms in that
country tending to insure complete cordially Of
intercourse without and stability Of administration
within for the common good. declares that In
acquiesclng in the declarations and regulations Of
the conference. in becoming . ~signatory TO the
general act Of Algeciras and TO the additional
protocol. subject to ratification according 20 consti-
tutiOudL pIDtCuuhCt Nv AL eStNpe1b 'O bbA
ton Of those regulations and declarations to Amer
lean citizens and interests in Morocco, u does SO
without obligation or responsibility for the enforce
ment thereof
II was with this reservation that the
treaty went to the Senate for ratifica-
ton. AS signed by our representatives
at Algeciras, the treaty merely makes
certain changes in the treaty Of 1880, to
which we were a party without reserva-
ton; and in the new pact we expressly
exclude ourselves from any political
complications which those changes might
bring about.
So far the executive branch Of
treaty making power. In ratifying the
Algeciras treaty, the Senate adopted a
resolution declaring its understanding
and intent, az follows:
THAT the Senate understands that the partici-
patton Of the United States in tho Algeclras con-
ference, and in the formulation and adoption Of the
general act and protocol which resulted therefrom.
was with the purpose OF preserving and increasing
It's commerce in Morocco, the protection as to life
liberty and property OF its citizens residing OF
travelling therein. and OF aiding by Its friendly
| or1ces and efforts In removing friction and contro-
vcrsy which seemed TO menace the peace between
Powers slrnatory with the United States TO the
treaty of 1880, all OF which are on terms OF amity
with this Government; and without purpose 70
depart from the traditional American foreign
policy. which forblds participation by the United
States in the settlement OF political questions which
are entirely European in their scope"
Between the reservation attached by
the signers of the treaty at Algeciras
and this declaration by the ratifiers o.
the treaty at Washington. N continued
freedom from entangling alliance anC
participation in European politics seems
to be assured.

TOMS LAST FIRE RUN.
veteran Horse I'm the Department Drops
Dead I'm the Harness.

Tom, the nigh horse of Engine 30, which
has quarters in the Fire Headquart ers
building in East Sixty seventh street,
died In harness on Wednesday night aft r
twenty years OF faithful service to the city.
He was a roam and was OF powerful build.
He loved the service and even in his old
z he was as quick to take his place in
front Of the engine at h sound Of the
gong as either OF the two younger horses
that pulled the machine with him.
IL was this enthusiasm that caused his
death at the end OF a run to a fire.
Tom was the first to get under the drop
harness when the alarm sounded. The
metal collar dropped to h floor before the
animal was ready to receive It. One Of the
crew sprang forward to pick it up, but Tom
put down his head, poked his nose under
the collar and threw IL over his neck and
the fireman snapped IL In place.
h alarm called the company to Eighty.
second street and East End avenue. Jao
LeamyS the driver. sent OF the apparatus
with a xt6tle and q warning toQt OF lie
whistle. Tom acted as though he knew
that Fire Commissions Lantry was think
ing about retiring him for a younger horse.
The Fire Commissioners had learned Of the
horses long service. Tom kept his nose
just a little in dvanc of Jerry b. and Bull,
his mates, a. the engine went gathering up

WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator Fred. T.
Dubois Of Idaho, who will retire from
the Senate next March, addressed the
Senate to-day on the Smoot case and fiogged
the Mormon Church mercilessly. In his
opening remarks the Senator explained
the detail Of Mormon organization. He
declared the Mormon authorities formed q
hierarchy which directed politics and busi~
ness. The 1.-THE system OF the Mormons,
he declared. yielded 10000 annually
for which the hierarchy gave no socount-
ing to the members OF the organization.
He declared that polygamists were no
longer the ignorant or poor 1.-THE paying
lay members, but the Intelligent and
wealthy who enjoy the highest ecclesiastt-
cal and political honors.
Mr.. Dubois asserted that . national law
on polygamy such as the President advo-
Gated In his message would not be effectives
because of inability 70 prove to the salts
faction Of a Judge and jury the guilt OF the
accused. The political control OF Utah,
Idaho, Wyoming and Oregon. he avsrred,
was in the hands Of the Mormons.
He then took up in detail the Idaho cams
paign, saying that the Republican State
convention and platform we're absolutely
silent as to law and order. while the Demo
cratic platform denounced the murder OF
Gov. S~teuBenberg and demanded b oon-
viotion of the 0uiltv. He allowed that none

In his lecture before the Peary Arctic
Club on Wednesday night Commander
PRARY said that IL he made another attempt
to reach the North Pole he would start from
western Grant Land and rely upon the
easterly movement Of h ice pack to take
him to his goal. But the dash for north
lat. 9Oo, as the painful and hazardous
crawling of a few miles a day Is called,
would nave TO be made with sledges across
the tumble of ice with its unknown topog-
raphy. 1t is easy enough to estimate the
exact distance from the starting point,
probably never less than 500 miles, and 1t
may be that another might succeed where
PEARY and everybody else has failed.
Hitherto failure has had many causes, but
there is one that may almost surely be
counted on. and that is the open lead filled
with broken ice" such as ended the dash
Of FIALA's party at 50 degrees north lati-
tude in March, 1906. Given a propitious
season and firm ice, the attainment Of the
Pole is only a matter of thorough equip
ment and nice calculation OF rations for
the final Effort. The man who has the luck
TO find foothoId as he travels will get there,
assuming that at the Pole itself there Is an
Zoe cap. The leader who OF all brave spirits
merits success is PEARY himself, but fate
plays strange tricks with explorers.

HIGH PRICES OF LUMBER.
Resolution Dir an Investig auOn Into
the Causes Thereof.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Is.-Two resolutions
OF far reaching Importance were agreed to
by the House Of Representatives to-day.
One, by Mr.. Miller Of Kansas, directs an
investigation by the Bureau Of Corpora
tons OF the causes OF the high price OF
lumber in the various stages Of manu-
facture and sale, the investigation TO be
conducted with the particular object OF
ascertaining whether or not these high
prices have resulted in whole or In part
from or because manipulated by any con-
tract, agreement or combination in the
form Of trust or otherwise, or conspiracy
In restraint of commerce among the several
States and Territories, or will foreign
countries, and il so TO investigate the
organization, capitalization. profits, CON-
duct and management OF such corporations,
companies or combinations.
The other resolution, by Mr.. Monden OF
Wyoming, requests the Secretary of the
Interior TO transmit a full and complete
description of all public lands which have
been withdrawn or reserved from entry,
filing or selection since July 1, 1905, together
with a report as to the reason for the said
Withdrawal ais and reservations, n as to

Democratic Progress in Chicago.

Whatever doubt or decentralization

BATH HOUSE JOHN, Chicago's sweetest
poet, and the Hon. HINKY DINK, a Demo-
cratic statesman second to Mr.. JOHN il
second to anybody, gave a party the
other night to some 1000 doting fol-
lowers. The Coliseum rocked. All the
region known 10 the guide books rs
south of the loop rejoiced. Even the
bilious reporters of the Chicago Tribune
admit that the multitude was there ~to
pay homage and tribute to the First ward

political precincts the great Democratic
doctrine of equal rights to all, and
special privileges to those who settle
The dance was woven; the wine" was
Opened; 1000 hearts beat happily;

Mr.. JOHN and Mr.. DINK do more than

are making inroads in the Republican
camp:
A" II was encouraging TO observe among the happy
faces those Of a leader in the Republican county

Ilcan county %Of1ciai."
Mr.. DINK and Mr.. JOHN are twin JEFF

strong.

of the Open Town Democracy, is also

his aim. He does not drink, but he
